83.3
Best Positioning (Quick Answer)
Placement: global effect (no slot requirement).
Trigger: global • Risk: None • Check: No
The Eclipse
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 The Eclipse is best classified as Pivot. At 100g 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 83.3 and cost 100g.
Trigger: global — placement-safe (won’t usually break).
Best synergy: Combat Core (score 4 • shared tags: Weapon, Tech, Damage, Vehicle).


### Efficiency & ROI Analysis
Your efficiency score (83.3) 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.

Efficiency: 83.3 Role: Pivot Slots: 3

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 7 (due to 3 slot footprint).
Cost: 100g Est. Rounds: ~1 Model: cost ÷ (eff×2)

Positioning Guide

Trigger: global • Risk: None • Check: No

Optimal Layout

No positioning requirement (global effect).
The Eclipse

Placement does not change whether the effect triggers.

Why Placement Matters

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

Strategic Q&A

Is The Eclipse worth buying early game?

"With a cost of 100g, this is typically a calculated investment. In early rounds, focus on board stability before committing to this Large item."

Does positioning matter for The Eclipse?

"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."
