Description
CURSED HEART
Speed + DMG up, no more hearts!

Type: Passive
Effect: Increases speed and damage, but prevents red hearts from spawning. However, you fully heal at the start of every floor.
Pools: Treasure, Curse, Secret, Devil

Cursed Heart is a passive item that fits into a high risk, high reward playstyle. Increasing damage by +1.0 and speed by +0.4, the benefits you reap are powerful. However, no more red hearts will spawn for the rest of the game. To combat this, you also fully heal at the start of every floor. As long as you can survive each floor with the amount of heart containers you have plus soul hearts, you will move on to the next floor.

@Yellow Angel: If Isaac had no Items at all, not taking damage would still be an automatic win.

It's an interesting concept, but because I always seem to have soul hearts and rarely take actual red heart damage late game, it seems a bit pointless.

This is very cool hope u sent it to Edmund.

Like I said, defensively it's really strong. Offensively it's average at best.

I think +1 probably is the standard anything gives, some items grant more, a few grant less. +1 is what things like Apollyon give if you manage to suck a damage up too. Identical stat ups to Growth Hormones makes it far from worthless.

Overall I wouldn't say it's OP or worthless, just more weighted to defense than offense if you got many containers, and negligible if you're using spirit hearts anyways.

Either way, it's also interesting and not a bad stat up.

I think it's funny that no one can agree whether it's OP or worthless.

plus 1 damage is mediocre, and plus 0.4 speed is almost worthless in most situations.

Please, kick heal at the start. There is many soul and dark hearts, you know.

If anything this thing is a greater survival boon than offensive, kinda an average tier damage up, good speed up, but receiving filled red hearts every floor sounds better than having dropped ones.

I kinda agree on toning down the total healing. Maybe max 3 red hearts filled per floor? Or no more than 5. Either way, cool mod.
