The Time Eater — Slay the Spire Walkthrough

Defeat The Time Eater in Slay the Spire: manage the 12-card limit, use impactful cards, and burst in phase two.

·Multi-source verified (83/83)

The Time Eater has a unique mechanic: after you play 12 cards, your turn immediately ends, and it gains Strength. This punishes decks that rely on playing many low-cost cards. Your strategy should involve playing fewer, more impactful cards per turn, or having ways to reset the counter (e.g., through specific relics). When its HP drops below 50%, it heals and gains more Strength. Burst damage is crucial to finish it off quickly in its second phase.
