Slay the Spire 2 Relic Tier List

Welcome to our preliminary Relic tier list for Slay the Spire 2. Here we'll give you our rankings of all Relics available in the game.

Seeing as the game has just launched into Early Access, consider this an early look while we still learn and explore the mechanics of the game. We'll be updating the list along the way, especially as new patches shake things up.

Relics are a crucial part of success in Slay the Spire 2. Not all Relics are created equally, however, and here's our breakdown of which ones will carry you to success and which are best left with the shop keeper.

Disclaimers

• Some Relics are better suited to specific characters or situations - this list judges Relics on their general usage across the entire roster as a whole.
• Various Relics have incredible synergy with each other (such asAmethyst Aubergine, Lucky Fysh and Dragon Fruit) which may boost the Relic value in your runs compared to on this list. Here we will judge Relics assuming you can't always have such synergies available.
• Relics are listed in alphabetical order within the tiers
• Ancient and Starters are NOT included in this list

Ranking

S-Tier: The best of the best. These Relics are highly sought after regardless of the archetype you're playing, and can generally be picked up at any time.

A-Tier: Relics in this tier are only a slight step down from S-Tier, as they may require some synergy.

B-Tier: The bread and butter pickups that will serve you well in almost all runs. While not the cream of the crop, they're flexible and easy to splash anywhere.

C-Tier: Good relics but require more synergy to work than those in B-Tier.

D-Tier: Highly situational or below the average rate. Low impact Relics that may even hinder more than help.
