About this converter
Slay the Spire Ironclad card costs run 0 to 2 across twelve starter and common cards. Anger, Body Slam and Clash open at 0 energy. Strike, Defend, Cleave, Iron Wave, Pommel Strike and Twin Strike tie at 1. Bash, Clothesline and Heavy Blow tie at 2 at the top. That makes one Bash equal two Strikes of energy. Every value is the printed energy cost from Mega Crit data, with upgraded costs carried in notes.
How to use it
Pick two cards and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first cost, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total energy. Try 1 Bash against Angers.
Upgraded costs drop on many cards, so rows pin base costs and notes carry the upgrade, stated here. Colorless and rare cards stay out because the table covers Ironclad starter plus commons. X cost cards never enter rows. Bash at 2 equals double a Strike. Pommel Strike and Twin Strike tie the 1 line, keeping six cards level in the middle. Iron Wave ties the 1 line as well.
