I built a combat simulator for the early fights in Slay the Spire 2, and the data ended up being too good not to share. Specifically, it finally gave me a way to quantitatively prove something I've been trying to get across for a long time: how you play fights matters far more than most players realize. I tested four combat strategies across every early fight and elite — Block First, Min Overblock, Attack First, and Monte Carlo Rollout (lookahead planning) — and the gap between optimal and suboptimal play gets pretty dramatic by the time you hit elites.
