Slice & Dice HARD Playthrough—3rd Grave
4I don't think I'd ever seen this curse before. It summons a Grave every third turn, and Graves are those enemies with 3 HP (that must each be removed individually) who summon a Bones every turn. Having played it a grand total of 1 times, my expert opinion is ... it's pretty good! It's not just that you're playing on Normal if you win before round 3; there are other curses like that and they can be brutal. What makes this one special is that it doesn't DO anything when it spawns. It's not until the 4th turn that you have a consequence of the grave, and that consequence is ... a 4 HP monster that deals splash damage when it dies. 4 damage shouldn't be hard to come by, and the splash helps kill the grave itself. You have to already be really losing for such a minor, slow effect to be backbreaking, and if you're losing that hard on Normal, then you would probably have lost with any other curse anyways.
