A co-op mod. Players sit in a ring, and the player before you makes your build decisions while you keep playing your own turns. They make them on the game's own screens, with your real cards, relics and shop.
Pick the mode in the lobby
In the co-op lobby the host readies up with Normal (the game as it comes), Ring Draft or Ring Draft PvP; everyone else just readies up.
Ring Draft PvP: your picker is out to sink your deck. The moment only one player is left alive, they win, even mid-fight. Pickers can skip only one of your card rewards every 3 floors, and PvP runs don't count towards unlocks.
简体中文:在联机大厅(角色选择界面)里,房主用 Normal(原版玩法)、Ring Draft 或 Ring Draft PvP 准备;其他玩家只需准备。Ring Draft PvP 模式下,上家会想方设法搞垮你的牌组。场上只剩最后一名存活的玩家时,他立即获胜,即使战斗仍在进行;如果剩下的所有人在同一个敌人回合内倒下,则无人获胜。上家每 3 层只能替你跳过一次卡牌奖励。中途离开对局视为失败,PvP 对局不计入解锁、历史节点或统计数据。
The player before you picks
You keep
With 2 players it's a swap; with 3 or 4 it's a ring in seat order. When anyone opens a card reward or the shop, everyone's opens, so everybody picks for their neighbour at the same time. What your picker takes flies into your row in the player list. If your picker stalls, you get a "Choose myself" button. Nothing is ever chosen for you automatically.
Installation
Requirements
Everyone in the lobby needs this mod, on the same version. Works on v0.107.1 and the v0.111.0 beta branch. Unpolished beta: expect rough edges.
Settings: ringdraft_config.json in %APPDATA%\SlayTheSpire2 (created on first launch). Each player can turn off shop delegation, Ancient gifts, opening everyone's screens at once and more, and change the timeouts. Problems? Post ringdraft_log.txt from the same folder.

The player before you picks
- Your card rewards (pick 1 of 3, or skip)
- Your shop: they get your shop on the merchant rug and spend your gold, including which card gets removed
- Which card you upgrade, after you choose Smith over Rest
- Your Attack / Skill / Power potion choices and Toolbox-style relic choices, in combat too
- The cards from gifts you choose at Neow and the other Ancients: Scroll Boxes packs, Lost Coffer / Orrery / Glass Eye rewards, Hefty Tablet / Massive Scroll picks, and which cards Precise Scissors, Precarious Shears, New Leaf and Pomander remove, transform or upgrade
You keep
- Every combat turn, potion use and target
- Events, chests, elite relics, gold and potion rewards
- Which gift you take from an Ancient, Rest vs Smith, and your map path

Installation
- Unzip so the RingDraft folder lands in your game's mods folder: ...\Slay the Spire 2\mods\RingDraft\RingDraft.dll (Steam: right-click the game > Manage > Browse local files; create the mods folder if it isn't there).
- Launch the game, enable Ring Draft in the Mods menu, and restart when asked.
