💡 How to Use
Assassinate is a premier opening card that guarantees turn-one Vulnerable application for zero energy due to its Innate and 0-cost properties. It is best used to initiate a burst sequence, allowing subsequent attacks to benefit from increased damage without sacrificing energy on the setup.
⚡ Synergies
relic
Paper Phrog
This relic enhances the Vulnerable effect from 50% to 75% extra damage, making Assassinate's free application significantly more impactful. Since the card is Innate, you are guaranteed to leverage this massive damage multiplier on the first turn of every encounter.
card
Blade Dance
Blade Dance adds multiple Shivs to your hand which benefit immensely from the Vulnerable status applied by Assassinate. Because Assassinate costs 0 energy, you can play it and then spend all your energy on Shiv generation to maximize turn-one damage output.
card
Finisher
Assassinate increases the attack count for Finisher while ensuring the enemy is Vulnerable for the final multi-hit blow. This combination allows for a high-damage execution on turn one since both cards can be easily woven into a single turn's rotation.
relic
Akabeko
Akabeko provides a Vigor boost to the first attack played in combat, which perfectly aligns with Assassinate's Innate keyword. This allows you to deal a high-damage 18-damage strike for 0 energy while simultaneously setting up the enemy for future attacks.
