💡 How to Use
Knife Trap acts as a powerful scaling finisher for Shiv-based decks, allowing you to replay every Shiv exhausted during the combat for a massive burst of damage. It is most effective in long boss fights where you have spent several turns generating and throwing Shivs to fill your exhaust pile.
⚡ Synergies
card
Accuracy
Since Knife Trap individually plays each Shiv from the exhaust pile, the flat damage bonus from Accuracy is applied to every single one, exponentially increasing the total damage output.
relic
Helical Dart
This relic provides 1 Block every time a Shiv is played, which triggers for every Shiv replayed by Knife Trap, potentially providing a full turn of defense while attacking.
card
Blade Dance
Blade Dance is the most efficient generator for Shivs, quickly populating the exhaust pile to ensure Knife Trap has a high volume of cards to replay when drawn.
relic
Shuriken
Because Knife Trap forces the player to 'play' the Shivs, it triggers the 'every 3 attacks' requirement of Shuriken multiple times in a single turn, granting massive permanent Strength scaling.
card
Afterimage
With Afterimage active, every Shiv replayed by Knife Trap generates 1 Block, turning a purely offensive card into a massive defensive engine.
