💡 How to Use
Shadow Step is a powerful setup tool that should be played at the end of a turn to trigger massive discard synergies while preparing for a lethal burst. It is most effective when your deck contains high-impact attacks or X-cost cards that can fully exploit the double damage multiplier on the following turn.
⚡ Synergies
Tactician
Discarding Tactician via Shadow Step provides immediate Energy, allowing you to play additional defensive cards or setup skills before the turn ends. This helps mitigate the cost of Shadow Step while ensuring you have resources to survive until the double damage turn.
Tough Bandages
Because Shadow Step discards your entire hand, this relic generates a massive amount of Block instantly. This synergy allows you to spend your turn aggressively setting up damage without sacrificing your health for the current round.
Skewer
Skewer is one of the best recipients for the double damage buff because it allows you to funnel all of your next turn's Energy into a single, multiplied hit. This combination is often capable of ending elite or boss encounters in a single strike.
Well-Laid Plans
This card is essential for ensuring that your highest-damage attacks are actually in your hand the turn after you play Shadow Step. It removes the RNG of the draw, allowing for a guaranteed and calculated burst window.
