Sorry, no amount of perfectly logical rational can overcome the pure reflex instinct which forces me to immediately pick up every single available item

[Zedrinbot]

So, to summarize:
-scrappers good
-wait on pickup up stuff you can reroll to see if you'll be able to reroll it, or if you plan to print so you don't accidentally consume it
-wait on opening good multishops to see if you can just use a card
-if you gotta print and risk things, dilute your item pool first
-grabbing a backup rusted key when you have an encrusted key will allow you to keep the void train rolling
-recyclers hinge upon item position, not the item itself

oh boy I can finally download Race’s play style

Actually, i forget the red item on the ground and move to the next stage, so this is bad advice.

This is a great showcase on the macroeconomy in Risk of Rain! I've always wondered exactly how much all of these techniques factor into making a good run. Perhaps one day...

[michaelthompson]

I picked up a lot of these tricks from watching some of the gameplay videos, but this comprehensive guide is massively valuable. Like i definitely learned something from watching this. The equipment positioning tip at the end literally made my jaw drop lol.

[AnticitizenOne]

Ever since I started watching your content this was something I picked up on you doing and have baked it into my own runs. This vid explains it far better than I could to my friends. Thanks for this, Race!

[KWCHope]

Item positions for re-rolling is an incredibly nice tip tbh, thank you

[carpet]

began macro itemizing the second i started watching your vids, runs have become 10x better

[rikingg]

the exec card situation happened to me twice in a span of 2 days i can't overstate how absolutely clutch it was for my runs

[Hehfg]

Great vid! I've understood most of what you went over already through watching your videos, but having it all summarized neatly is great.

[nurgle-jn]

This video actually really helped me up my game so thank you. I was way too focused on rushing through the stages and taking this advice to heart has made my runs waayyy more consistent because I have a better chance of tipping the luck in my favor.

[RapidProbably]

This video is super nice for helping friends understand why I do microitemization. Before they would just be confused on why I leave shops unclaimed and key boxes un touched.

[Barely_Edited]

That recycle position one is brilliant, I didn’t know it worked like that. Great stuff

[thomaspls]

I always thought that the item recycles were tied to the item, not the position so that's a neat new thing I've found out from this!

[alansmithee]

But 100 items make brain happy.
Dump it all on a shrine of order and watch chaos unfold.

[pixel-rageunbound]

could be useful in singleplayer, in multiplayer if you leave red item on the ground for even 2 miliseconds someone will take it from you.

[monikamorningstarshadlo]

No amount of explaining anything will make me understand not picking up Aegis in that first clip

[ashamefulgamer]

Thanks.
No idea why I never thought of doing that. It's so obvious yet it never even crossed my mind.

Run saver! 🙏

[Zelose_Kitsune]

this is a useful video guide/explanation tho a few of these i learned just from watching you play, hearing you explain it drives it home
