Ignite the Spire with Yoimiya: A Fiery New Challenger

Prepare to light up the StS with the arrival of Yoimiya, a brand-new playable character mod! This exciting addition introduces a vibrant cast of over 75 cards, including unique derivative cards, alongside 10 new relics that will redefine your ascensions. Dive into a fresh gameplay experience with innovative keywords and mechanics designed to bring the spirit of the festival to every battle.

Unleash the Festival of Battle

Yoimiya’s playstyle revolves around a dynamic build-up of “Clout.” Begin by unleashing “Clout” or “Uchiage” cards, strategically accumulating “Strength” and “Block” as your “Clout” grows. Once sufficiently empowered, devastate your foes with the explosive potential of “Kindling-Arrows.” While using “Residual” to convert “Clout” into “Block” offers a temporary defense, the true path to victory lies in maximizing your “Clout” for a swift and decisive end to combat.

As you delve deeper into the Spire, you’ll unearth forgotten “Fireworks” – potent cards that you can unleash for devastating effects. These fleeting wonders can be retrieved from your discard pile using “Slips,” allowing you to chain powerful plays and generate even more “Clout.” For an extra tactical edge, “Blank Slips” can replicate your most impactful “Fireworks,” providing additional ammunition for your arsenal. Master the art of card order to trigger bonus “Impulse” effects, and turn the tide against self-buffing enemies with the “Ennjou” mechanic, forcing them to suffer the consequences of their own enhancements.

Core Mechanics to Master

This mod introduces several exciting new mechanics to Slay the Spire:

• Clout: Gain “Clout” with each card played. Every 4 stacks of “Clout” translate into 1 “Strength.” At the end of your turn, half of your “Clout” is converted into “Block.”
• Residual: Expend “Clout” to gain an equal amount of “Block,” offering a tactical defensive option.
• Kindling-Arrows: Enhances your next attack with bonus damage, consuming a stack of “Kindling-Arrows” for each use. This effect is removed at the end of your turn.
• Impulse: Gained when drawn, “Impulse” is consumed upon playing a card to activate its unique “Impulse” effect, adding layers of combo potential.
• Ennjou: Enemies lose HP equal to their “Ennjou” at the start of their turn, with the value decreasing each time. If an enemy plans to buff itself, its “Ennjou” value is doubled, turning their advantage against them.
• Firework: These powerful cards are Exhausted upon playing, but add a “Slip” card to your discard pile that records the “Firework” for later use.
• Slip: Playing a “Slip” adds an Ethereal copy of the recorded “Firework” card to your hand, enabling repeated use of powerful effects.

Prepare for an explosive journey with Yoimiya – the festival of battle awaits!
