Ornamental Fan

Ornamental Fan is an Uncommon relic in Slay the Spire 2 that grants 4 Block every time you play 3 Attacks in a single turn. This relic bridges the gap between offense and defense, rewarding aggressive play patterns with free Block that helps keep you alive.

The 4 Block bonus triggers every set of 3 Attacks played in a turn, meaning if you play 6 Attacks you gain 8 Block, and so on. For decks that naturally play many Attacks per turn, this adds up to significant defensive value with zero Energy investment. The relic turns your offensive turns into hybrid offense-defense turns, reducing the need to sacrifice damage output for survivability.

Ornamental Fan is tailor-made for Attack-heavy builds, particularly the Ironclad's aggressive strategies and any deck built around cheap or zero-cost Attacks. It synergizes well with Shiv-based Silent builds, where playing 3 or more Attacks in a turn is trivial. The relic is weak in decks that rely primarily on Skills, Powers, or Poison, as they may not play 3 Attacks in a single turn consistently. Pair it with Vajra or Pen Nib for a fully offensive playstyle that still provides defensive coverage.
