So, this run was insane. I hadn't done any of the important stuff with Cain yet, so I decided I'd give it a go. Right off the bat I got Laser Ring tears, which I thought would be awful (I even considered restarting). However, on the second floor I got Technology, meaning I could shoot normal lasers and fire laser rings. So, things continued as normal until Depths 1 where I got the  Book of Revelation, allowing me to have a high supply of soul hearts. I also found Lump of Coal, which gave me a damage up. I eventually got to Mom in under 20 minutes, and upon beating her a Devil Room appeared, containing Brimstone. Upon taking it, my Laser Ring tears became Brimstone rings, dealing even more damage than before. Upon completing Boss Rush, I continued on in the Womb and Utero until I eventually beat Mom's Heart and proceeded to Hush, where I found many damage ups including Steven, Polyphemus, and Brass Knuckles. When I fought Hush, I beat him without taking damage. After that, things went smoothly through the Cathedral and Chest, where nearly everything died to one Brimstone ring. Unfortunately, I hadn't gotten any Angel Rooms or Key Pieces, so I didn't fight Mega Satan.
