Slay the spire: Silent Rundown
The silent class in slay the spire is a class with many different strategies. Every strategy is very niche to succeed in and you have to know what cards are strong for that particular strategy. This article with discuss the three main strategies that the silent class can use.
The first strategy is making a discard silent deck. You try to pick up cards that can discard cards to gain a powerful effect, like acrobatics. To strengthen this build even more, you can pick up cards that are actually good when you discard them, like tactician. When your deck reaches the end it should be a smooth running machine with a lot of discard synergy. A risk when going for this strategy is that you don't find all the pieces of the puzzle. As said before, this deck is very synergy based and if you miss certain cards to get that synergy, you might end up with a poor deck.
The second strategy that we will take a look at, is probably the most aggressive strategy out of the mix. I am talking about the shiv deck. A deck based on the power of shivs. These are card that deal damage for free, but the way to get them is certainly not free. You use cards that generate of lot of shivs to your hand, like blade dance. After that you want to make sure you get some power-ups and buffs that make your shivs do even more damage. Since this is a pretty aggressive strategy, it is the most safe one to build a deck around.
The third and last strategy for the silent is the opposite of the shivs strategy. This is a very defensive strategy and games with probably take way longer to win, but it is a very satisfying way to win. I am talking about the poison strategy. Basically you fill your deck with cards that poison the enemy. Because poisoned enemies take damage every turn, even when you don't attack them, you can focus on defense after poisoning them. This makes for a very grindy game, but it is by far the most satisfying way to kill enemies.
And there you have it! Three very different strategies all for the same class: The Silent. I hope this Silent rundown has been helpfull for you and remember: Improve your game!
