Since sacks now can substitute any pickups, instead of just coins, Humbling, Sackboy, Sack of Sacks.

Sack Head gives way more sacks than Sack of Sacks. The Sack Sack only works sometimes and only once per room. With Sack Head, if you find a room full of poops, or better, if you have A Card Against Humanity, you can get sacks all over the place.

As for Humbling Bundle, it's nice and all, but it's just coins, keys, and bombs. You can get all of that from sacks, plus batteries, cards, and runes. I'd rather have me some Perthro, Jera, and all the batteries than a bunch of coin. Sacks make breaking the game easy.

Yeah that was my reasoning, cards and runes beat the other pickups.

The batteries are my favourite part, especially with a couple Jeras. With D6, you can reroll as much as you want. With Void, you're never without a charge. For D100, D4, D20, and Blank Card, the game just breaks itself. Blank Card + Sack Head is one of the best combos in the game.

like this, Humbling Bundle is underrated but still not quite as good as sack head

Sack of sacks onelove to break greedier

I recently broke the game with Sack Head + Undefined.
Clear level. Find secrets if you can. If you find all secrets, you'll only need 2 batteries, otherwise +1 per secret not found. Guarinteed Devil deal AND I Am Error rooms on every floor. Then, on the last floor (Chest / Dark Room / Void), you can keep repeating the level as many times as you want, until you're so OP you're bored.

This still makes the void a bit more viable, right now you can only kill delirium with an OP run or gnawed leaf.

Really? But... Why? There are so many other ways to break the game. Why would they nerf that of all things?

Also, this must be a fairly new fix, because I've definitely used that trick on the Chest in Afterbirth. Then again, I haven't gotten the chance to do that one in a while. Maybe a few months. But I definitely did that in Afterbirth.

think they "fixed" it around the same time Keeper came out

humbling bundle is mostly pointless by the womb floors unless you have some sort of bum or plan to break the game. Sack of sack is a weaker version of sackhead. Sackboy is free runes and cards and stuff keeping it relevetant all run.

So the only debatable one is sack of sack vs humbling bundle in the early game. But then again humbling bundle can break the game early game and win you the run itself via shop reroll machines.

Of course one shouldn't forget contract from below. crooked penny or rune bag.

Eh crooked penny does more harm than good, i gave up on that item. I would take the D1 over the crooked penny.

No, no it doesn't. You use crooked penny on the left over item pedistal after you take an item. Or on shops where you weren't going to buy anything anyways.
