Slay the Spire 2 (sts2) Card Tier List

456 cards · Updated October 15, 2026

Ranked by Codex Score, community-submitted run win rates, Bayesian-shrunk so low-pick cards stay near neutral. It's a naive win-rate signal with known biases (high-exposure staples sink, late rares float), not a verdict, switch to Codex Elo for the less-confounded view. Click any card for full stats.
