Finally got around to doing a themed Specialist Thorns2 start in his home of IS2 with the Exodus characters (Irene standing for Anastasio). Made me appreciate how you can manipulate block using flag modules to boost a 2 block to 3 so the AU landed on a 2 block in particular. First time I've had it matter in a run, but it was fun. S2 is still the go in any IS to but S3 sometimes like here had its uses to both delete shielders and lower Phantom ATK so his schizo hits took longer to stun Irene.
