Trigger: global • Risk: None • Check: No
Ice Luge
Key Takeaways
  • ● Component — strongest when purchased with a plan, not as a blind buy.
  • ● Low friction: only 1 slot(s), easy to slot in during pivots.
  • ● 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 Ice Luge is best classified as Component. At 8g and 1 slot(s), it’s a placement-safe (global) item where timing matters.

Low-to-mid cost means it can be used as a tempo stabilizer if it fits your board plan. Low footprint makes it easy to slot in without breaking your grid.

Quick Conclusions

Verdict: Buy — based on efficiency 20 and cost 8g.
Trigger: global — placement-safe (won’t usually break).
Best synergy: Dive Weights (score 2 • shared tags: Ammo, Cooldown).


### Efficiency & ROI Analysis
Your efficiency score (20) 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.

Board Flexibility

Because it is Small, you can pivot into it with minimal disruption. This is ideal when you need to keep options open while scouting opponents.

Investment ROI

Estimated break-even: ~1 rounds
ⓘ Method

This is a heuristic estimate (not raw DPS). If you want it to matter, buy early enough to get multiple trigger windows before the board locks.

Timing hint: strongest when purchased before ~round 9 (due to 1 slot footprint).
Cost: 8g Est. Rounds: ~1 Model: cost ÷ (eff×2)

Positioning Guide

Trigger: global • Risk: None • Check: No

Optimal Layout

No positioning requirement (global effect).

Placement does not change whether the effect triggers.

Why Placement Matters

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

Strategic Q&A

Is Ice Luge worth buying early game?

"With a cost of 8g, this is typically a priority pickup. In early rounds, focus on board stability before committing to this Small item."

Does positioning matter for Ice Luge?

"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."
