Opening note
Neow relics should be ranked by what they do before the run has normal context. A relic that is excellent on floor one may be ordinary later, and a powerful late-game relic may be too slow if the first route is already dangerous. The page should judge opening stability before ceiling.

- Score the relic by the first three fights before late-game ceiling.
- Record whether the downside changes first-shop or first-elite choices.
- Link high-risk starts into returning-player route guidance.
When to downgrade it
Downgrade a Neow relic when its upside appears too late for the chosen route or when the downside makes the first elite, first shop, or first boss preparation worse.
