Thanks for the overview! There are few rules things to clarify. You start with 0 coins and gain 3 from Neow's Blessing. The blue, yellow, and purple cubes are for the Defect. if you use them for character block and energy trackers, you'll short change the Defect on orbs. No issue if the Defect isn't in play. The black cubes are for Ascension 2. The purple orbs are the Defect's darkness orbs. At the Merchant, I've never seen it played where you can buy cards from another player's card rewards deck; however, the rules state you can help another player buy something if they are short on gold. On the Boss relic reward, you reveal relics for each player +1.
Great catch on the coins, I've added a correction in the captions to reflect that. Regarding cards, we've used the "Cards from Other Characters" rules to manage that, but in 99.9% of cases we've only bought our own cards anyway. It may be a misapplication of the rules, but there's nothing prohibiting it and it's kind of a fun twist so we roll with it! 😁
Appreciate the good info. This has been the most helpful “how to play” for Slay the Spire that I’ve come across. Thanks!
@@Luke_L Thank you so much and hope you enjoy the game!

Un the rule book the boss relic deck you draw number of players +1 so in a 2 player you draw 3 and each player can decide which one to pick.
Thanks, this has been corrected in the Klingon subtitles!
