'''Groff''' is a [[Companions|Companion]] that the player can bring along on a run. This card is exclusive for the [[Tribes#Shademancers|Shademancers Tribe]]. As they have no counter, they will only activate when the conditions in the description are met: an ally must be sacrificed for Groff to attack.

As Groff has no regular turn counter, Groff's utility scales with the player's deck. In a deck of [[Shades]] or sacrificial companions like [[Egg]] or [[Chikichi]], Groff will have more opportunities to trigger. And, every time they trigger they will deal five damage twice thanks to [[Stats#Primary Stats|Frenzy]].
Unlike most cards, Groff has no {{Stat|Counter}}, so they will never attack as turns pass. Instead, they have a {{Stat|Reaction}} that triggers any time the player sacrifices a card, dealing a whopping 10 total damage. Since they have {{Stat|Frenzy}}, they scale even better with {{Stat|attack}} boosts and are less likely to overkill a weak enemy. However, the player must have a deck of [[Shades]] or sacrificial Companions like {{Card|Egg}} or {{Card|Chikichi}}, as well as cards that can regularly sacrifice them, such as {{Card|Monch}} or any of the Skull [[Items]] ({{Card|Tiger Skull}}, {{Card|Yeti Skull}}, {{Card|Azul Skull}}). In a deck that cannot consistently make sacrifices, Groff is simply a meat shield with middling {{Stat|health}} and is easily outclassed.


In decks without opportunities to sacrifice cards, Groff only has five health and will be of limited use beyond taking a hit or 2.
The {{Card|Skullmist Tea}} can give Groff a good attack boost if the right card is sacrificed, and it will immediately trigger their Reaction to use the newfound attack power. However, the extra attack is still likely not worthwhile without a good source of sacrifices.
 
{{Card|Snuffer}} can be sacrificed an unlimited number of times, making it a fantastic pair with Groff. As an added benefit, each Snuffer sacrifice will boost Groff's attack.
