No tricks, one shot isaac, one shot blue baby, easy mega satan kill (all angel rooms)
The seed is EEYQ 8N96

I don't know how randomized the seeds are for certain things, but hoefully you'll see the same options as I do - this is a clean fight - no dice to roll, etc.

This seed got me the boss rush on hard for eden.

You must play your cards right - e.g. you need to save the credit card for the devil room with abadon. This run starts out really strong. Don't fear using the portable blood bank for coins early on.

You will end up very OP - abbadon, get ipecac BEFORE dr. fetus, then you are blazing through levels - lots of goodies like common cold, broken watch, etc. - I had 4 angels rooms on this run, get the mega satan key.

Get the polaroid.

For the boss rush room, I totally risked blowing it and got quad shot instead of infestation 2 (be careful they look similar). When you do this, you must be gentle as a dove on the trigger. Everything is one shot except mega satan and one of the fatty bosses for some reason. For some reason, the first volley of four sick bomb shots doesn't hurt you, but it WILL blow you out of rooms and across gaps, so be careful.

If you fire a second volley after the first, or run towards the direction you are shooting in - you WILL get hurt. Position yourself, fire, forgetaboutit.

By the time you get to it lives the heart is a one shot deal (as is everything else).

Enter the chest. You'll pick up holy mantle here.

Every room is full of one-shots. I don't know how powerful this shot is - I just know that if your first shot blast doesn't kill a boss, the poison does in one sec.

After one shotting blue baby and letting the posion get him, go take care of mega satan - his fists are one-shot. If you get them while they are close together you can destroy both at one. Slap him in the face a few times with your quad balls between rounds.

The final battle is a joke - 3 shots tops to kill mega satan.

Good luck!

Blank Card + Chaos Card. The true 1 shot.
Throw in the battery for more uses :D

Paying someone for a real platinum god savefile = truest one shot.

Who needs to pay someone to beat a game for them...
Just download a save file.

Who needs to play a game? Sometimes the only way to win is not to play.

P.S. Did you play the seed?

It never matters what order you pick up items in.

(Also this is the key combo in your entire run: Dr. Fetus + Ipecac is incredibly strong as it makes you immune to your Fetus bombs, deals 3 times the already high Ipecac damage, AND gets the massive flat bonus Dr. Fetus gets from combining with poison effects.)

It actually does in a few rare cases. Technology and Monstro's lung I believe interact depending on order picked up.

Just tested - in either case Technology overrides and there is no difference in stats from which you picked up first.

Interesting - I will have to test this out.

In playing the run live, I was initially bummed that I got ipecac (I still get that and rubber cement confused) because of the airborne bombs issue. When I found dr. fetus, I was relieved because the shots went back to the ground. Does this mean the ground effect of dr fetus cannot be overridden by anything? e.g. tiny planet, etc.? I though that getting ipecac afterward might force dr fetus shots to fly.

The nicest thing aside from the damage was that dr fetus shots exploded on impact - waiting for your shots to potentially bounce back before they explode and hit you in the face can be a pain sometimes.

It does matter with a few (might be only one actually) synergies, but very very very very very few.

You seem to have an example in mind- what is it? The only time I've ever encounrted the order you pick up items mattering was because of game bugs - most of which were fixed in version 1.03.

What unlocks did you have? Did you have Suicide King and Everything is Terrible?
Where the credit card should drop (Outside first treasure room) I found the Suicide King.
Apart from that, Great run. Very fun.
