'''Spoof''' is a [[Companions|Companion]] that the player can bring along on a run. They are exclusive to the [[Tribes#Shademancers|Shademancers Tribe]].

Although creating {{Keyword|Bootleg}} copies of random enemies is inherently extremely inconsistent, Spoof's copies are still very strong in their own right, even with poor stat rolls. Compared to the {{Card|Shade Wisp}}, a Bootleg copy will always have at least 2 {{Stat|health}}, allowing it to survive after triggering and losing health from the {{Keyword|Summoned}} ability. It also can have its {{Stat|Counter}} reduced by a good amount. Try to ensure that there are as many worthwhile targets for Spoof as they come close to triggering, but even if they summon a subpar copy, it can still block attacks or be a sacrifice. Having extra blockers is especially important due to Spoof's extremely poor base health.

Having extra blockers is especially important due to Spoof's extremely poor base health.
In addition to modifying the copied card's health, attack, and Counter, the copied card differs from the original in other ways:
* It does not retain any [[Stats#Debuffs|debuffs]] from the original.
* Its Counter begins at the maximum amount, not at the copied enemy's current Counter.
* Any boosts or reductions to its effects (indicated by its effect numbers becoming green or red effect) are removed.
* It gains the {{Keyword|Summoned}} ability.
None of the enemy's [[Stats|stats]] are modified other than its health, attack, and Counter. Any [[Stats#Buffs|buffs]] it had will be given to the copy.


The {{Charm|Lamb Charm}} gives Spoof's copies a flat 2 points of health and {{Stat|attack}}, making even the lowest Bootleg rolls decent. {{Card|Van Jun}} can similarly empower the summoned copies, although Van Jun's Counter is longer than Spoof's. When deploying both of them at once with [[Crowns]], Van Jun will trigger one turn before Spoof can make a copy. This can be especially inconvenient since Spoof's health is low enough that the {{Card|Sunburst Tootoo}} can only hit them once.

Spoof cannot copy any [[Enemies#Bosses|boss]] that takes up 2 zones, such as {{Card|Infernoko}} or {{Card|Bamboozle}}. Since [[Clunkers]] have no health, Spoof will not copy them either.

When copying an enemy, the enemy's [[Stats#Debuffs|debuffs]] will ''not'' be copied, so Spoof's copies will never be {{Stat|Snow|Snowed}} or in danger of exploding from {{Stat|Overburn}}. However, positive statuses like {{Stat|Spice}} ''are'' copied.
==Trivia==
Spoof appears to have three {{Card|Shade Wisp|Shade Wisps}} around them, fitting due to their enemy-copying ability. Each Shade Wisp's color also corresponds to one of the stats modified by {{Keyword|Bootleg}}: red for {{Stat|health}}, blue for {{Stat|attack}}, and yellow for {{Stat|Counter}}.
