tainted laz isn't agony to play ever since he got buffed
here's a few tips on how to be better at playing Jacob or Esau
>dead laz has good stats already and a damage multiplier, he'd just enjoy a singular tears up from your boss, throw most of your items onto alive laz until he feels fine
>pay attention to the charge on flip so that you have it ready for rooms where a pre-spawned pedestal is expected (treasure, shop, boss, angel)
>your health resources are split across 2 health bars, so devil deals are seldom worth it. go angel
>also because your health is split across 2 health bars, you can bank a lot of hp for sacrifice rooms and arcades once the run is rolling
the character is only miserable in greed mode (and somewhat during boss rush) due to forced flips and being harder to control how to stack your power due to the only way to tick things down slower is using the button.
be glad it's not like pre-nerf when flip was a 6 room charge, there was no mirror item, and a shitton of items just straight up crashed the game.
