Key Takeaways
  • Pivot — strongest when purchased with a plan, not as a blind buy.
  • High board cost: 3 slots means this affects your positioning for multiple rounds.
  • Low placement risk: trigger is global, so disruption is less punishing.
Data & Methodology (How scores are calculated) Season 10

Efficiency: Efficiency Score is a normalized "space ROI" metric: (estimated effect value ÷ size slots). It is NOT raw DPS.

ROI: ROI estimates assume standard round pacing and compare this item against same-tier peers by cost and slot usage.

Percentile: Percentiles are computed within the same category/tier bucket (e.g., Tech items at similar cost).

Meta Strategic Position

The Ethergy Conduit is best classified as Pivot. At 48g and 3 slot(s), it’s a placement-safe (global) item where timing matters.

High cost means you should only commit if it upgrades your win condition immediately or enables a pivot. Large footprint means you must plan around board compression and sequencing.

Quick Conclusions

Verdict: Buy — based on efficiency 40 and cost 48g.
Trigger: global — placement-safe (won’t usually break).
Best synergy: Barbspike Warden (score 3 • shared tags: Charge, PoisonReference, Relic).


### Efficiency & ROI Analysis
Your efficiency score (40) is a *space ROI* signal, not raw DPS. This usually means it can carry a board plan if you can protect space and scale it. If you’re behind on board stability, delay the purchase until you can immediately benefit from it.

Opportunity Cost

Because it is Large, you’re paying in board space. Plan your next 2–3 rounds so you don’t choke your sequencing or block key triggers.

Placement does not change whether the effect triggers.

Why Placement Matters

Placement errors won’t nullify Ethergy Conduit. Focus on board space and upgrade timing instead of slot order.

Strategic Q&A

Is Ethergy Conduit worth buying early game?

"With a cost of 48g, this is typically a calculated investment. In early rounds, focus on board stability before committing to this Large item."

Does positioning matter for Ethergy Conduit?

"No — this is a global item. Placement won’t affect whether it triggers. Optimize for slot efficiency and keep your grid open for higher-impact pieces."
