Patch Intelligence
STS2 Patch Dashboard
One page for the current patch truth: which datasets are verified, which ones still need review, which ones are blocked by the parser, and which tools inherit that drift immediately.
The site is not fully broken. The refresh path is.
Confirmed V102 changes already touch cards, powers, events, relics, and Spiredle.
Enemy, relic, potion, and event parsers still need guardrails before any blind refresh is safe.
Data Confidence
Current Patch Confidence Snapshot
This hub reads the version manifest, the manual diff triage, and the known parser gaps together. It exists so the site stops pretending that a successful build means a trustworthy patch refresh.
Version manifest + manual diff triageCards · Needs reviewPowers · Needs reviewEvents · Blocked by parserRelics · Blocked by parserPotions · Blocked by parserEnemies · Blocked by parserSpiredle · Needs review
Events, Relics, Potions, and Enemies are blocked by the parser, and Cards, Powers, and Spiredle still need review on V0.102.0. This page stays on the last trusted snapshot instead of pretending the refresh pipeline is clean.
Build commit 5fd772f8 was rechecked against the live manifest on April 9, 2026. Patch notes date: March 26, 2026. Build date: April 2, 2026.
Maintenance Signals
Who Maintains This Page
Core hub pages should not look anonymous. These signals show who curates the hub, when it was reviewed, and where the real source page lives when you need more than a summary.
Independent fan-made editors and data maintainers. This is not an official Slay the Spire 2 or Mega Crit property.
Final site operator and responsible editor. Final contact for corrections, rights notices, and maintenance triage via [email protected].
Visible copy, links, and page-level signals were checked in the latest review pass.
If a patch moves the numbers, wording, or assumptions behind this page, the page gets revised, narrowed, or rechecked again.
Hub pages point you toward the maintained leaf pages instead of pretending one overview can carry every edge case.
Summaries help you navigate. The linked tool, guide, or database page remains the canonical page for the underlying calculation or note.

Dataset Health By Surface
The count is not the point. The point is whether the current site surface is verified, still needs review, or is blocked by a parser path that would publish bad data if you let it through.
5 confirmed changesNeeds review
Cards
Confirmed card drift is already visible on named live cards.
Current readBorrowed Time, Blade of Ink, Leading Strike, Speedster, and Untouchable are all source-verified V102 changes.
Next stepRefresh the safe card subset first, then rebuild downstream clue pools from the corrected base.
1 confirmed changeNeeds review
Powers
Power drift is smaller, but not theoretical.
Current readGrasp is a verified live-rule change, so the powers page cannot pretend the dataset is fully current yet.
Next stepShip the targeted Grasp refresh before calling the power board clean.
2 confirmed changesBlocked by parser
Events
Events mix real changes with parser damage.
Current readWaterlogged Scriptorium and Tinker Time have verified V102 changes, but handler metadata is also falling out of the extractor.
Next stepKeep the fact layer conservative and expose confidence until handler coverage is repaired.
3 confirmed changesBlocked by parser
Relics
Relic data has confirmed live drift and blocked parser output at the same time.
Current readCrossbow, Fragrant Mushroom, and Ember Tea all moved, while unlock and owner fields still degrade under V102 parsing.
Next stepDo not run a full relic refresh until unlock, starting owner, and search metadata are stable again.
0 confirmed changesBlocked by parser
Potions
Potion risk is parser integrity, not confirmed live balance drift.
Current readThe current repository snapshot is more trustworthy than a fresh V102 potion build because numeric placeholders are still collapsing.
Next stepKeep the last trusted potion snapshot live until numeric text extraction stops losing values.
0 confirmed changesBlocked by parser
Enemies
Enemy counts still look healthy while the important fields rot underneath.
Current readHP bands, ascension HP, tier, and move data can degrade to null while the row count still looks normal.
Next stepRepair the enemy parser before touching co-op HP or any route-facing enemy math.
1 confirmed changeNeeds review
Spiredle
Spiredle is already stale because the clue pool inherits main-data drift.
Current readThe board still reflects the old Prepare naming path while V102 uses Prepared and other clue attributes have shifted.
Next stepRebuild the clue pool immediately after the safe card and relic refresh lands.
Confirmed Live Drift
Changes Already Proven In V102
These are the changes you can safely treat as real right now because the design report ties them back to unpacked source, localization, or both.
Confirmed card drift
Cards already proven to be stale on the live site
These are not parser ghosts. The design report ties each one back to unpacked V102 code or localized text.
The live rule now grants energy while making cards cost 1 more this turn.
Open related pageThe effect now generates Inky Shiv instead of the older temporary-strength style line.
Open related pageDamage and Shiv-generation details changed enough that the old summary is no longer safe.
Open related pageThe number line changed in V102 and needs the site-side refresh to match.
Open related pageIts block values moved, so the current card page is visibly behind the live game.
Open related pageConfirmed power and event drift
Non-card changes that already need a site-side refresh
The V102 patch did not only touch cards. A smaller number of powers and events already have source-verified live drift too.
This is a real gameplay change, not a cosmetic wording edit.
Open related pageIts gold value changed, so event-value calculations need the fact layer to catch up.

What The Refresh Pipeline Still Gets Wrong
This is the dangerous layer. A parser can emit enough rows to look healthy while the fields you actually need are already wrong.
Relics · Blocked
Relic unlock metadata is falling out of the parser
unlock.*, startingOwner, and searchText fields can vanish or mutate under a naive V102 refresh.
Why it mattersA full relic refresh would still look complete while quietly dropping owner and unlock context from the live site.
What to do nextKeep the last trusted relic snapshot live until unlock and owner extraction are stable again.
Potions · Blocked
Potion text is losing numeric placeholders
Fresh V102 potion output can erase or zero-out effect numbers inside the rules text.
Why it mattersThat makes the potion page worse than the current live snapshot, because the numbers are the only reason the page exists.
What to do nextGate potion builds on placeholder integrity before allowing any new export through.
Events · Blocked
Event handlers are dropping out of mapped records
handlerName coverage degrades under V102, which breaks confidence in option previews and downstream EV logic.
Why it mattersAn event page without stable handler coverage turns fact gaps into fake precision.
What to do nextKeep event confidence visible until handler coverage is back inside a safe threshold.
Enemies · Blocked
Enemy HP and move fields are the worst offender
hp.min, hp.max, ascHp, move data, and even tier labels can degrade to null while row counts still look healthy.
Why it mattersThis is the most dangerous kind of failure: a room-facing database that looks complete while the numbers are wrong.
What to do nextMake enemy builds fail hard when HP or move null rates cross a threshold instead of quietly publishing bad data.

Which Datasets Each Tool Actually Depends On
This is the part you want when a patch lands. It tells you which tool to recheck first, which datasets drive that route, and why a stale or blocked dependency matters.
Tool Dependency Matrix
What This Doom Tool Depends On
Doom math only stays honest when Necrobinder rule facts and enemy HP bands are both reading from the last trusted dataset instead of a stale handwritten snapshot.
Enemies are blocked in the current refresh pipeline, and Cards are still stale on V0.102.0. This tool is running on the last trusted snapshot, not pretending the live parser is clean.

Enemy HP drift and card-rule drift both move execute math immediately.
Recheck Necrobinder card facts and enemy HP bands together before calling Doom lines trustworthy.
- Enemy HP drift moves execute thresholds immediately.
- Reference-only cards still matter for planning, but only cards that can change this turn target Doom stay in the calculator input list.
Tool Dependency Matrix
What This Event Tool Depends On
The EV model is only one layer. The event fact layer can still drift when parser coverage drops, so this page needs to show where the raw event data is solid and where it is only partially mapped.
Events, Relics, and Potions are blocked in the current refresh pipeline, and Cards are still stale on V0.102.0. This tool is running on the last trusted snapshot, not pretending the live parser is clean.

Event handler gaps and stale relic or potion facts create fake certainty.
Keep the fact layer conservative and expose confidence until event coverage is clean again.
- Low confidence means hidden rolls or delayed payouts. It is different from parser damage.
- Event facts and EV scoring are split on purpose, so a weak event record does not get to masquerade as a strong recommendation.
Tool Dependency Matrix
What This Co-op HP Tool Depends On
The co-op multiplier math is stable. The moving part is the enemy dataset underneath it, so the page needs to expose whether those body HP lines are verified, stale, or blocked.
Enemies are blocked in the current refresh pipeline. This tool is reading the last trusted snapshot until the parser stops emitting half-bad data.

The scaling formula is fine, but enemy body HP is only as good as the blocked enemy parser underneath it.
Do not refresh co-op HP from V102 until enemy HP bands stop degrading.
- Room multipliers can stay correct while body HP lines drift. Those are separate layers.
- This page reads room totals from the last trusted enemy snapshot until the parser path is safe again.
Tool Dependency Matrix
What Spiredle Depends On
Spiredle is not an isolated toy. The clue boards inherit drift from the main card and relic datasets, so the puzzle has to surface when one side of the clue pool is older than the other.
Relics are blocked in the current refresh pipeline, and Cards and Spiredle are still stale on V0.102.0. This tool is running on the last trusted snapshot, not pretending the live parser is clean.

Rebuild the clue pool right after the safe card and relic refresh lands.
- Card and relic clue pools can refresh on different days, so a mixed board state must stay visible.
- Rename aliases keep old guesses searchable when a patch renames an entry instead of silently deleting it.
Patch Notes And Source Diff
Where The Official Patch Story Meets The Site Diff
Official notes tell you what changed in broad terms. Source verification and site impact tell you which page or tool has to move because of it.
Source-verified card rewrite
Borrowed Time is no longer the old free-energy line
Official patch windowThe March 26, 2026 patch cycle shipped live card tuning that invalidates older tempo advice.
Source-verified diffV102 source shows Borrowed Time granting energy while adding a temporary +1 energy tax to cards this turn.
Site impactCard text, card detail commentary, draft heuristics, and any patch-facing card roundup all need the new rule path.
Source-verified power rewrite
Grasp is a real rule change, not wording cleanup
Official patch windowThe live V102 power set moved enough that the current power board cannot be stamped fully current.
Source-verified diffThe design report flags Grasp as a source-verified gameplay change rather than a cosmetic text adjustment.
Site impactThe powers database and any status-package explanation that leans on Grasp need the refreshed fact layer.
Patch notes plus fact-layer fallout
Event changes need both source verification and parser skepticism
Official patch windowThe March 26, 2026 patch note window lines up with verified changes on Waterlogged Scriptorium and Tinker Time.
Source-verified diffWaterlogged Scriptorium changed its gold value, while Tinker Time moved to the free-to-play-this-turn wording path.
Site impactEvent EV cannot hide behind one score. It has to keep fact confidence visible until handler coverage is clean.
Downstream clue-pool drift
Spiredle breaks as soon as the main datasets drift
Official patch windowPatch-facing naming changes do not stay isolated to the main databases.
Source-verified diffThe clue pool still references the older Prepare path while the live V102 dataset uses Prepared and other card facts have moved.
Site impactThe puzzle board needs rename-safe aliases and a fast rebuild path whenever main card or relic facts change.
