The Round Guard is a relic that makes the player immune to damage while reloading.

Trivia[]

  • This can be seen as an alternate version of the Decoy Orb, as it provides total damage immunity rather than preventing enemies from taking their turn
    • However, it is possible to get both relics in the same run - effectively doubling the effect of each one
  • The name is a reference to Roundguard, a game made by friends of Red Nexus Games

Strategy[]

  • Round Guard works well alongside the Bad Cheese relic, as the player will deal damage while taking none during the reload phase.
    • It is possible to use Bad Cheese and Round Guard to literally 'cheese' the game and become undefeatable. If the player manages to empty their entire Orb inventory, they will only be able to end their turn and reload in a seemingly softlock state. However, with each reload Bad Cheese will take effect and become stronger, and the player cannot be damaged due to Round Guard. After a while, the player will win without doing anything. This strategy is unreliable and tricky to pull off, though, as it requires a lot of specific events to happen to pull off.
    • This strategy is ineffective against the Demon Wall boss, as the player will not be able to put out enough damage during reloads before the boss reaches them, killing them instantly.
