Another Dumb Question (I promis I'll get a save state mod or something to check these things for myself): The Joker "Photograph", does that trigger for the first face card in each played hand or only for the first hand that round? (So could I play 4 different hands in the same round and it would trigger every time there was a face card in it, for at least the first face card?)

all this modding and skip tags still arent fixed, wrap it up, no more modding allowed balatrojoker

jade arch
wintry ice
#

only for stickering

#

i wouldn't use them while actually expecting value from them

mortal nimbus
#

Negative skip tag typically lands on something that provides no usable benefit, or very little benefit

serene forge
#

anaglyph skips are for econ

serene forge
#

or orbitals maybe

wintry ice
#

or constellation

#

etc

jade arch
#

I have no idea how I'm supposed to get all gold stickers without negatives in anaglyph

#

Cause if not, it's gonna be super tedious

hybrid tendon
#

being able to use it to sticker doesn't mean it's useful after that

wintry ice
#

ghost deck is more consistent for stickers overall

#

most of the time you either get the negative tag to early or don't get it at all

dire crater

average negative skip tag compilation

it's a weak deck compared to blue/yellow/ghost

This was the LUCKIEST end i have ever gotten in this game
For explanation:
I could NEVER beat vv here without glasses 10s
Last shop: 2 standard packs, +/- $60
I opened the 2 packs, and one of them had a glass 9 of spades
I rerolled the shop to grow my Jj and found a death and a strength card
Last hand i got my 2 10 of spades (one i got as lucky card in another standard), my 9 of spades and the glass one
And as yall can see, i almost lost

My highly subjective deck nonranking:

Red: We Fixed Blue Stake!
Blue: Objectively strongest
Yellow: Objectively strongest if you lack discipline
Green: terrible, stinky
Black: let’s just not think about the runs that don’t make it to ante 3
Magic: perfect, no notes
Nebula: I would hate this deck 300x less if it prevented emperor and priestess from showing up in the shop
Ghost: Brainrot (non-derogatory)
Abandoned: gr8 str8 m8 I r8 8/8
checkered: i hate you, worst deck, would be S tier if diamonds instead of hearts
Zodiac: hell yes! fuck yes! overstock!!!
Painted: only cowards would pass the eternal troubadour on blue deck
Anaglyph: the card backs look nice 🙂
plasma: fuck the violet vessel all my homies hate the violet vessel

# vital badge are Aces good to rely on in a build

i guess the thing is though, i'm not really sure what "rely on in a build" means
like if you have the trio: it doesn't really matter what rank you build around as long as you are actually building around something

# proven gulch for the numbers

also the problem with using jokers for value evaluation is you need to sell the joker afterwards so you need to account for that too.
for anaglyph is the only way to get double tags
for painted its 16 dollars because you effectively start with eternal troub and handy tag (you cant sell the troubadour so the value always stays at 6)

i can't tell if checkered deck is insanely op or if ive actually gotten good-ish at the game

#

i did blue stake first try

white zodiac
#

it's a too 5 deck

#

top

#

trivializes the first four rounds for you

dark cairn
#

i got castle on ante 1

abstract rivet
#

its basically starting with troubador without the -hand

dark cairn
#

over the course of the run it scaled to 414 chips lol

white zodiac
#

ok that will do it

abstract rivet
#

what

white zodiac
#

minus specific benefits

abstract rivet
#

oh thought he said painted lmao

dark cairn
#

this was the winning loadout (i was looking for a hanging chad to replace fortune teller but it never came)

abstract rivet
#

i mean checkered is basically the flush deck

#

it makes it easier to pivot to flush houses/straights

#

and well yeah castle is funny with checker

white zodiac
#

or just pairs later for more joker versatility

dark cairn
#

why would you play pairs on checkered deck

white zodiac
#

blackboard

#

grimbo

#

bus

#

space

#

nova

dark cairn
#

i dont see what blackboard has to do with it

#

and id rather keep playing flushes even with space joker

#

the other 3 maybe

except for maybe bboard

white zodiac
#

blackboard makes sense still

abstract rivet
#

i legit don't see why pairs are better on checkered deck of any thingt

#

half the deck is already black

stone delta
#

What is better to sell, tragedy and comedy and take photography, or stay as I am?

white zodiac
#

prob more in the context of hand scaling mult first

dark cairn
#

do you mean because its easier to keep blackboard working if you only play pairs as opposed to playing a 5 card hand?

abstract rivet
#

it being checkered doesn't change shit

manic talon
abstract rivet
#

but at that point thats not playing checkered

#

thats basically playing a base deck with no benefit like anaglyph without the skip tags

manic talon
#

i mean yes

naive torrent
#

I know the update was delayed but do we know anything that’s gonna be in the update?

white zodiac
#

the main benefit is the first four rounds pretty much

abstract rivet
#

the big question is what makes pair any better on checkered than any other deck

manic talon
#

you should be playing flush instead of pairs on checkered if you can help it

white zodiac
#

if you wanted to start like a win streak going

#

mm

dark cairn
#

flushes scale way better than pairs in terms of planet levels so ive been trying to play around that whenever reasonably possible

white zodiac
#

pretty much what I could do with pairs if you wanna force something and work regardless

stone delta
manic talon
#

also if you do flush and get some jupiters photochad will always give you the win

white zodiac
abstract rivet
#

like

#

if you really stretch it

#

the only advantage of playing pairs with checkered is obelisk

white zodiac
#

mult has like slightly better on card x mult benefits

abstract rivet
#

if you played a lot of flushes at the beginning and can have pairs catch up in the x mult

stone delta
#

okey guys ty

help guys how do i get merry andy easily

#

so far sticking with flushes has been what's worked for me so that's what i'm sticking with unless the game tells me not to

manic talon
#

grimbo flush is also still pretty damn easy, and supernova flush is a given, really its ride the bus that doesnt mesh well with checkered flush

white zodiac
#

yeah

manic talon
#

but the strong part of checkered is the fact that you can also just play every face card you have in deck

dark cairn
#

being able to consistently play a 5 card hand is also just strong in general for getting enhanced card value

manic talon
#

so face cards does become pretty good econ too

dark cairn
stone delta
white zodiac
#

checkered has good benefit for flushes in the sense that it's open to more on card scoring or on card value benefits you usually wouldn't get like hiker or enhancements

#

less about the planets and more about the benefits of playing a 5 card hand all the time

naive torrent
white zodiac
#

with the jokers that have better value for bigger hands

manic talon
#

hiker is still so mid on checkered ngl, but it does work better

white zodiac
#

that's hikers fault lol

dark cairn
white zodiac
#

flush house is cool too I suppose

manic talon
#

i barely use secret hands on checkered ngl

white zodiac
#

I do it for fun more than for practicality

manic talon
#

the best thing you could be doing in checkered is unironically photochad or chad glassing

dark cairn
#

i tried getting a flush five 2's build with wee joker but game wouldnt give me the tarot cards i needed before the run ended

dark cairn
white zodiac
#

I've experimented too much with held in hand gimmicks knowing my play style

manic talon
#

jupiter is +2 mult and its the easiest hand you can make, also you only ever need 1 face card per hand, so you can do it every hand

#

with other hands like pair and up, you need 2 or more faces

#

so checkered flush photochad is pretty much always online for you

“Do they know how to base mult?!?”

dark cairn

didnt drspectred beat gold stake with +mult only using shoot the moon

white zodiac
#

idk

dark cairn
#

i havent used it much because it seems really annoying to play around and unlike baron you dont get to go to ante 15 billion with it

white zodiac
#

it's more for gs stuff

dark cairn
#

yea i know

white zodiac
#

you get some funny results when you try to make it work consistently

#

each stm run is unique

dark cairn
#

if you use shoot the moon as your main +mult do you end up just playing high card?

white zodiac
#

I do pairs initially

#

hc falls off mid game if you don't have both plutos and a chip scaling joker

manic talon
dark cairn
#

checkered might honestly be my favourite deck because flushes are my favourite general hand type

white zodiac
#

checkered has backup plans

#

I'd play it more if it didn't make my stats look like your generic reddit player

dark cairn
#

pairs and 3oak are boring
i struggle to use straights effectively outside of abandoned deck
4oak, 5oak, and the special flushes are too inconsistent on blue stake+

simply dont stop doing it and you will be rewarded balatrojoker
