Ultra hard challenge
There was no challenge that made me want to give up like Ultra hard.

The fact that you practically have all curses means that you have to rely a lot on RNG (mostly because of permanent curse of the blind).

Another thing that is very annoying is curse of the labyrinth, XL floors and curse of the lost. One run I literally was just walking around the floor for a solid 5 minutes, trying to figure out where to go while labyrinth was triggering constantly.

Only elite enemies isn't as big of a problem as only elite bosses omo. Not to mention if there can be double trouble in a boss fight- there will be double trouble.

But the worst part is on my opinion the fact that no hearts drop at all. This also makes you not want to take devil deals.

Overall, playing the keeper 24/7 seems more fun than playing this challenge

The reward is so comically awful that the only people who should even bother with Ultra Hard are completionists and people who thought unlocking Godhead was too easy. I'm not just saying it's not worth the effort required, I'm saying it wouldn't be worth it even as the reward for a saner challenge, and that this was probably intentional.

Definitely a very hard and frustrating challenge. I basically only played the first floor until I found Satanic Bible or Book of Revelations or Yum Heart.

What helped me with this challenge was a very lucky 1st floor curse room.
It had two red chests which gave me guppy's head, then the 2nd one teleported me to devil deal which had abaddon and the pact. These two items carried me through the entire challenge up to mega satan.

I got Dry Baby at some point and it came in clutch for Mega Satan. Would not have won without it.
