Search STS2 Guide

Core engine for Shiv builds — free damage every turn that stacks with all Shiv buffs, and Innate means it comes online turn 1.

Each copy adds +4 to every Shiv — stacks multiplicatively with Infinite Blades for explosive output.

Retained Shivs plus a big bonus hit — turns a Shiv deck from steady chip into serious burst.

Instant burst of three Shivs — great with Accuracy and Shiv payoffs, dead weight without them.

Block plus a Shiv — quietly excellent in Shiv decks where the Shiv is free damage with Accuracy.

Makes every Shiv an AoE and hands you four right away — the payoff that lets Shiv decks clear whole rooms.

Create many small attacks, multiply them with Accuracy-style scaling, then finish with burst payoffs.
