Well, back when I was trying to get my first win, the game was a lot different, so looking at my old mortems didn't turn out to be useful, but I would suggest maybe looking at builds of wins in the mortem subforum. In general, I would say starting out with EE -> SoB -> SoB -> SoB is a good start. When I play on harder modes, I go for ironman and TaN after that to help keep me alive, but on ITYTD, I would suggest going for Intuition. Also, on ITYTD, you could might not need as much SoB early on. For example, I would say the third level of SoB isn't really needed until you encounter Barons. Early intuition can help you level up more... monster spawning levels are a good way to get extra experience -- before you get too deep. At a certain point they become extremely dangerous.
