Charm Description
Apply the same effect as the last Charm applied to the card

Shade Slug is a Charm that the player can collect on a run.

Unlock

Win a run without any Charms equipped.

Strategy

The Shade Slug's ability to copy the effect of any Charm gives it huge potential. The Charm that will be most valuable to copy depends on the deck, card, and Charm, but pick a Charm with high impact.

Uniquely, the Shade Slug can be attached to a card and copy a Charm regardless of restrictions that would other wise prevent it, such as redundant keywords. For instance, the Shade Slug can copy the  Gnome Charm, even though a second Gnome Charm would normally count as a redundant instance of Aimless. This also makes it possible to reduce a Companion's base   health to 0 or less if copying the  Truffle Charm or  Moko Charm, which will result in the Companion dying instantly in hand when drawn.

When a card has multiple Charms attached, the one that was applied most recently is the leftmost one.

Trivia

The Shade Slug bears some resemblance to the   Shade Clay, which also has a copying effect.
