Acrobatics Skill

Is Acrobatics good in Slay the Spire 2?

In Slay the Spire 2, Acrobatics is an uncommon skill from the Silent card pool. Its effect: Draw cards. Discard 1 card. Performance-wise it’s a solid if unspectacular include, rated C tier overall.

Over 995 tracked runs its win rate sits at 28.9%, 14.7% ahead of the 14.3% all-deck baseline. It sees niche play, included in only 3.7% of eligible runs.

Within Silent runs it’s drafted 16.6% of the time, making it a regular part of that class’s decks. Decks that include it run about 1.2 copies on average.

Its standout pairing so far is Flanking, which lifts its win rate by +36.9% when the two share a deck. On the relic side, Sword of Jade is its standout companion, worth a +41.8% win-rate swing alongside it. It costs 1 energy, gets upgraded 30.0% of the time, and tends to be picked up near floor 16.

Taken 912 times out of 2453 offers.

Pick rate when offered counts offers, not runs: out of every time the game put this in front of a player, how often it was taken. It is not the same number as the share of runs that end up containing it.

Pick lift is the sample-adjusted gap between runs that took the option and runs that passed on it. It is the fair way to rank choices, because raw win rates put the smallest samples on top.
