Question about chaos card on mega satan
So, I'm doing a run with the lost with the intention of beating mega satan. Got two key pieces, so getting there won't be a problem. I found the chaos card, something I haven't really used before. I read here that you have to face the direction you want to throw it instead of where you're shooting your tears, but when should I throw it at mega satan? Like, what would make things the easiest? Been a while since I've killed mega satan so what should I aim for? I remember him spawning the seven sins but that's about it.

Since he has 2 major phases, you have to decide wether to throw it at his first phase (where he keeps spawning the sins, horsemen and fallen angels) or his second phase (where his head becomes a skull and the fight becomes sort of a bullethell).

Maybe at phase two, when his head becomes skull. To throw chaos card move towards him and then use it. I never used chaos card before on mega satan so i am not sure if it just kills him or makes him go to phase two if you use it on start.

I hope you understand what I am saying

If you use it on phase 1 it just skips to phase 2. It doesn't end the fight altogether.

Ya I figured as much, you kill one of the phases. I just didn't remember how many phases he had. Okay so two. I see. Now I actually don't expect to have much trouble with mega satan all together as I was one hit KOing everything anyway and just now at the final floor I finally got 9 lives... whooee. I guess I'll just go through phase 1 and then try to hit him. Does he have invincibility frames anywhere or can I just openly throw it at his face when he ehm... is in second phase?

He has none

Thank you guys <3 Godhead is mine! and all other stuff from beating all with the lost :D sweeeet. Now I feel finally part of the elite here. First phase went smoothly without getting hit once. Second phase I was afraid I'd miss him because he kept moving so I just... analyzed his movements, since I had 9 lives. After that I threw the card in his face second phase and bam, done.

I also finished everthing in rebirth before afterbirth came out, but did not felt like I am one of elite, maybe because I like to be alone. Well congratulations.

Personally I would have used it on phase 1, as the 7 deadly sins fight is a ♥♥♥♥♥, and the second phase is pretty easy bullet hell dodging. Main point is you got it though, so congrats!

Well, I had 9 lives so I had a lot of room for mistakes. It was better to just get through the first phase to finish it off the second than to use the card right away and then screw up the next phase so the card would be lost entirely, I figured. But okay, I guess it kinda depends on your build. I didn't have much defenses but a lot of area damage so for me the first mode was easier. But thanks for the advice =)
