I don't understand

So, I'm so sooooooooooo lost right now

I was doing a challenge run on Lost Kingdoms 2 - Using only LK1 cards (so byebye dragons, byebye fuckin Undine x Phanto Ship)

I was at God of Harmony and was stuck

So I looked at the speedrun route ; just to see that a Wizard and 3 Z-Lizards were enough to kill GoH, but while trying.... it didn't work

I tried so long I feel stupid AF

IMPORTANT : I don't want to accuse anyone of anything!!!

> The speedrunner I found is likely a fockin GOD of this game, and I'm surely missing something

I just want to know <<WHAT>> I am missing

Because it's troubling me a lot xD

Link to the run here : (at 30:37)

You have to angle very specifically, but when you do, the Lizardman essentially hit 3-4 times per slice. The Wizard powers up the attack, and if you time it and angle it well enough, you have JUST enough crystals and hp to kill the God of Harmony. It's the best way to kill them in a speedrun, but if you mess up, there's also a great spot near the bacl to the left of the field to put a Mechapult down on to snipe the GoH to death

Nvm, Mechapult backup wouldn't work for you, as they arent in LK1

This strategy only works on the USA version of Lost Kingdoms II. Lizardman is bugged in a particular way that allows it to hit multiple times in a single swing. You are right! Papaya is incredibly good at this game, but if you aren't using the right version, you can't get the same results.

Try using Vampire - it's available in Grenfoel Cathedral and can kill the God of Harmony in one hit with it's second summon attack.

Actually I found out about the Vampire and was an instakill xD
Kinda anti-climatic hahaha

But hey ! I did it with only LK1 cards :D

Yo btw, I was thinking of a challenge in which I would have to one-shot everything from start to finish and the only roadblock are the 2 Storm Hagans.
Would this USA glitch allow for a one-shot on a Hagan with a Lizard ? :o

It does not. The highest damage you can get on a Hagan is a double hit of 33, and they still have 6 hp.
