The Silent Guide

Discard & Poison Rogue

The Silent is a cunning hunter who weaponizes her discard pile. The new Sly mechanic lets discarded cards play for free, enabling explosive combo turns. Poison stacking remains a core win condition, now supercharged by discard synergies.

Key Mechanics

Sly

If a card with the Sly keyword is discarded from your hand during your turn, it plays for free. Core to the discard archetype.

Poison

At the end of each enemy turn, they lose HP equal to their Poison stacks, then Poison decreases by 1. Stacks indefinitely.

Shiv

0-cost Attack cards that deal small damage. Synergize with relics and cards that trigger on card plays.

Best Builds

Sly Discard Build

Fill your deck with Sly cards and discard enablers. Each discard triggers free card plays, creating chain reactions that empty your hand for massive value.

Poison Build

Stack Poison quickly with Noxious Fumes, then double it with Catalyst. Enemies die passively while you focus on survival.

Pro Tips

→Sly cards are most powerful when you have multiple discard outlets — stack them.
→Catalyst is a win condition on its own — prioritize it in Poison builds.
→Footwork is one of the best uncommons in the game — take it almost always.
→Don't neglect block — the Silent's HP pool is lower than other classes.
