The Smith is a high-impact scaling card that should be prioritized in decks centered around the Sovereign Blade to quickly reach lethal damage thresholds. It is most effective when played early in a combat to maximize the value of every subsequent Sovereign Blade strike.
Conqueror
Since The Smith adds 30 flat damage to the Sovereign Blade, Conqueror's ability to double that damage creates an explosive turn against high-HP enemies. This combo allows the Regent to bypass traditional Strength scaling by relying on massive Forge stacks.
Sword Sage
Sword Sage adds an additional hit to the Sovereign Blade, which applies the 30 damage from The Smith twice per play. This interaction scales exponentially with multiple hits, turning a single Forge card into a massive damage multiplier.
Summon Forth
This card ensures that the Sovereign Blade is available to benefit from the Forge stacks provided by The Smith, regardless of its position in the deck or discard pile. It bridges the gap between generating Forge value and actually applying it to the enemy.
Fencing Manual
This relic provides a free Forge 10 at the start of combat, allowing the Sovereign Blade to be relevant before The Smith is drawn. Together, they accelerate the Regent's scaling to the point where the blade can one-shot most non-boss enemies.
