Did it make sense? No… but I had an early burnt joker that was unfortunately eternal so I thought why not.

Run died on on Ante 16 unfortunately because I got no hand size voucher (also didn’t pay attention to skips, which didn’t help), but still a solid run.

Deck during final round:

Not perfectly fixed but whatever. I knew run would die because of lack of hand size and one joker slot missing from eternal burnt so I focused on leveling high card for fun.

Edit: I also had some blue seals for most of the run which with the two mimes later would give three planets, which is where a lot of levels came from

    Congrats!

    I just had my first true Baron/Mime build. It only made it to ante 12 and I think my high card level was only around level 60 by the end.

    But the craziest part is that the run right before that was my first ever Perkeo/Observatory build that also picked up Baron+Mime in the late game to last a few more antes. I think that’s the first time I ever managed to get both Baron and Mime in the same run but I hesitate to call it a true Baron/Mime build when Perkeo/Observatory was what carried me most of the way. Unfortunately that run had started with Spare Trousers so I was built into two pairs and never quite found the opportunity to pivot to high card, but I was still my highest scoring run ever so I can’t complain too much.

    After that run, I didn’t expect anything major from my next run, but a rare tag skip on round 1 gave me Baron right off the bat and since it was nebula deck I definitely decided to go all in on high card. Mime showed up at some point and I easily made it past ante 8 but my deck fixing wasn’t great so it couldn’t go quite as far as I would have liked.

    Still, it was pretty wild having two great runs back to back with two notorious builds that I had never managed to pull off before.
