<h2>Early Game Strategies</h2>
<p>Starting with a selection of burn-oriented items, I've decided to test various approaches. While the Fiery kits generally appeal due to their width and versatility, an early opportunity with Zoracid is spotted. Paired with items like Emulating Spark, our burn strategy gets a jump start.</p>
<h2>Mid-Game Decisions</h2>
<p>Transitioning to mid-game, we get some good synergy with the lighter and cannonball combinations, alongside our new burn friend, Zoracid. There are strategic challenges, like whether to equip the rapid-firing Mantis Shrimp with precise supporting items. This stage sets the structure for deeper battle tactics.</p>
<h2>The Proboscis Revelation</h2>
<p>Reaching a pivotal point, Proboscis emerges as an unexpected powerhouse. Initially underestimated, its synergy with the tripwire creates a robust, defensive barrage that invites viewers to reconsider its potential. These elements—mastery of timing and strategic placement—prove crucial in turning battles to our favor.</p>
<h2>End Game: The Victory March</h2>
<p>As the game rounds into form, the strategy solidifies. The combined force of Proboscis supplemented by heavy dive weights, alongside well-curated companions like Mantis Shrimp, propels us to a perfect 10-win streak. It's a testament to the strategic depth that <em>The Bazaar</em> offers and the flexibility in character builds.</p>
<h2>Closing Thoughts</h2>
