Forbidden Grimoire Power
📜 Card Effect
🎯 Strategy & Guide
How to Use
FREE CARD REMOVAL AFTER EVERY FIGHT. Play Forbidden Grimoire as early as possible in combat, then draft aggressively — you can always remove bad picks later. Over a 20-fight run, you'll remove 20+ cards from your deck. By the final boss, your deck is nothing but premium cards. Remove Strikes first, then Defends, then any filler.
Drafting Philosophy #2 Pick Priority
Forbidden Grimoire is the single most powerful scaling effect in STS2. It lets you draft aggressively without worrying about deck bloat — take every strong card you see, then trim the weak ones post-combat. A lean Necrobinder deck (15-20 cards) with Forbidden Grimoire is nearly unstoppable. The card effectively turns every fight into a mini-Shop visit.
Key Synergies
Death March Seance Reaper Form
Death March deals more damage with thinner, faster-cycling decks. Seance transforms cards into Souls, which you can then remove if they don't fit your strategy. Reaper Form synergizes with a lean deck that consistently applies Doom.
