Vampire is weaker than most cuz it's slow but that's pretty much it's only downside

#

It'll ramp up eventually

narrow wadi
#

the more i use it the more i think vampire isn't even that bad, it's just that all the other scaling xmult jokers (other than madness) are so much better

#

it's probably like a b+ tier joker for gold stake

#

just the rest are a-s tier

signal frigate
#

It's funny how my friend thinks Constellation is shit

narrow wadi
#

lmao, ig if ur bad with econ constellation can be slow

signal frigate
#

I keep proving her wrong but I think she just fucking hates it

wintry ice
#

what's next

narrow wadi
#

but with any decent econ joker it scales fast af

wintry ice
#

throwback is strong?

narrow wadi
#

i forget throwback exists whenever i talk about xmult

signal frigate
narrow wadi
#

cos throwback is just always a reroll shop for me

red thistle
signal frigate
#

It's possibly the worst Xmult joker in the game

wintry ice
#

no like does your friend think that

signal frigate
#

But she thinks Constellation gives too little

red thistle
#

Yikes.

narrow wadi
#

this was me with red card

wintry ice
#

it's like

narrow wadi
#

on paper i thought red card was bad so didn't use it

#

started using it

signal frigate
#

I used to be the same with Red card too

wintry ice
#

0.4x per round on average

narrow wadi
#

realised it scales wayy faster than i thought

signal frigate
wintry ice
#

i got red card to +100 once

narrow wadi
#

it's the mega packs i love with red card

#

pick the best one then skip

wintry ice
#

the packs weren't feeling it that day

#

i think i also got a joker from a mod that gives you up to 5 booster pack tags so ig it's a bit skewed

red thistle
wintry ice
narrow wadi
#

tbf only hermit early is gonna make me not skip (or maybe like blueprint or a crazy buffoon joker) it's only after i get it to maybe +30 that i start taking more tarots

wintry ice
#

i think i'd take most sources of chips or economy from buffoon packs

narrow wadi
#

with space i take any econ joker unless it's like eternal satellite when i haven't used planets

#

and anything that scales

#

other than throwback/ madness lol

#

maybe not vampire, depending on if i have other xmult

floral mural
#

red cards real good even if your packs are good around half the time because thats still like 50 mult

#

and they arent good half the time

#

theyre better than 3 mult like 1/6th of the time or something like that

narrow wadi
#

this is a sell fool buy riff raff angle right lol?

shell dagger
#

standard packs are blue seal or bust

wintry ice
#

if i have a blue seal or a good chip generator celestial packs are just +3 mult

shell dagger
signal frigate
narrow wadi
#

it takes a crazy shop for me to sell a fool round 1 lol

shell dagger
#

like if you used one fool on a judgement and it popped out foil riffraff would you be happy

signal frigate
narrow wadi
narrow wadi
#

perishable doesn't rly matter

floral mural
#

this is perishable but this cardies you early and can get you off the ground probably

signal frigate
narrow wadi
#

it's early scoring and econ, one of the best r1 jokers

signal frigate
#

It's the right pick though

#

That'll get you out of ante 2 to 3

floral mural
signal frigate
#

If it gives you Rebate, that's a blessing

glad sequoia
floral mural
#

generally early on

narrow wadi
signal frigate
#

I usually just use my fools on either hermits or devils

floral mural
#

so obviously you take riff raff here

narrow wadi
#

i took the riff raff dw

signal frigate
#

That's my "I want hermits" side talking though

#

Riff Raff is the right play lol

floral mural
#

i find magic deck fools are good to save but also not for the high roll

#

if you get something good to copy copy it now dont wait forever for the hermit

narrow wadi
#

riff raff for 5 rounds is probably around a hermit of money from selling jokers

signal frigate
#

The high rolls are sometimes worth it, that's why I'm willing to die for them if I see an opportunity

narrow wadi
wintry ice
#

if i get mercury i save the fools for later still

#

to give scaling jokers more time to scale

narrow wadi
#

ppl don't realise riff raff is great early econ

glad sequoia
#

I like using it for either level 3 pair off one mercury or triple hermit. Depending on what I get

signal frigate
twin lantern
#

+riff raff itself could CREATE econ jokers

signal frigate
narrow wadi
narrow wadi
#

then look to pivot into rebate

signal frigate
twin lantern
#

hot take: rebate should give $-1 🗣️

signal frigate
#

It's still gonna be pretty good

#

12 dollars for one discard

#

10 dollars for 1 discard

narrow wadi
#

i like it when things with a high skill ceiling are the meta

signal frigate
wintry ice
#

it definitely needs to be tuned down with the blue stake rework though

signal frigate
#

But I feel like it's fine because it does need some level of luck to make it work

twin lantern
#

insane

signal frigate
wintry ice
#

the literal only case where you don't take rebate is when you have burglar

signal frigate
narrow wadi
signal frigate
twin lantern
glad sequoia
#

I think faceless could use a slight buff, feels very weak compared to rebate

signal frigate
#

Again, you only think that because Rebate is fuckin strong

#

Faceless is actually fine

narrow wadi
wintry ice
#

i don't think it's a good comparison

glad sequoia
#

Rare vs uncommon

Common vs common

signal frigate
narrow wadi
glad sequoia
#

Legendary I mean

narrow wadi
#

i get it

signal frigate
wintry ice
#

good joker vs overpowered joker

good joker vs overpowered joker

narrow wadi
#

i didn't know what burg was

signal frigate
#

The rarity doesn't matter

narrow wadi
glad sequoia
narrow wadi
#

higher rarities should be more game warping effects

signal frigate
#

But Constellation being uncommon yet being that strong though

narrow wadi
#

it's not that much stronger than like hologram

wintry ice
#

should a common joker be so strong that it overshadows good uncommon jokers that serve the same pourpose as it

narrow wadi
#

i think u need some good scaling xmult at uncommon to make gold stake feel better to play

signal frigate
#

Yet it's still only slightly weaker than rebate

glad sequoia
#

Rebate feels like an uncommon lol. So insanely good

narrow wadi
#

getting $15 is pretty easy to do consistently with rebate, that takes 7 antes to get on rocket

glad sequoia
#

Can be copied, works with deck fixing, comes in before interest at end of round

signal frigate
narrow wadi
#

u only get the same at ante 8

wintry ice
signal frigate
#

I like Rocket alot

narrow wadi
signal frigate
#

An ante 1 rocket I'd argue is as strong as a Rebate

wintry ice
#

rocket and cloud 9 are tied for third best econ jokers

acoustic kettle
#

Golden jimbo my goat

glad sequoia
#

Round one hex'd rocket is always a good time

signal frigate
#

Golden Jimbo is just good, and that's great

#

I like that it's not amazing, nor horrible

glad sequoia
#

I think Golden ticket is probably second after rebate

signal frigate
#

It's just good

signal frigate
acoustic kettle
#

Golden ticket can be the best under some conditions

white zodiac
#

rocket is a late investment pickup that works

acoustic kettle
#

But most of the time it's rebate

wintry ice
signal frigate
narrow wadi
signal frigate
white zodiac
acoustic kettle
#

Number 3 is gotta be perkeo

narrow wadi
#

early midas feels better for me than early rebate, even if early rebate is better

signal frigate
#

It's the one joker that makes Pareidolia feel a tiny bit useful

narrow wadi
signal frigate
white zodiac
narrow wadi

Well yeah that's why it's below rebate golden ticket midas

Midas is great for getting license online too

and it was like round 3 so i had space

It matters alot more if it's an econ joker I suppose

white zodiac

#

i had a run with photochad + canio + pareidolia once

signal frigate
#

But Legendaries on their own could be argued as an "Econ joker" thanks to Temperance Value

neon light
stiff fjord
#

it was a bit scuffed but it was also very fun

signal frigate
#

Canio and Yorick still the best legendaries though

wintry ice
slate lance
#

What do yall think vagabond or trousers

wintry ice
#

trousers

signal frigate
#

I think trousers

acoustic kettle
#

Pants

neon light
slate lance
#

Yea fair enough

signal frigate
#

You got two fools already, you only need one good tarot

slate lance
#

Too early for a good vagabond going

wintry ice
#

vagabond is great but pants sets up lategame scoring

neon light
#

If you were on green deck or wtv the card and discard econ deck was then vagabond every time

signal frigate
#

I need to get used to Green Deck so I'm gonna play Gold stake on it alot to get a streak

wintry ice
#

green deck makes vagabond better and worse at the same time

neon light
white zodiac
wintry ice
#

a little more towards worse because you can still get to interest with the amount of gold and lucky cards he generates

neon light
#

So you can always go back to 0 bucks

Yorick as non legendary with that scaling is insane

dense wraith
#

pretty clean win (I didn't need lucky cat either)

acoustic kettle
#

Unless you tune it down

white zodiac
wintry ice
#

the fact that blue seals are so sought after indirectly buffs constellation

wintry ice
white zodiac
wintry ice
#

yorick doesn't need you to change how you play the game

signal frigate
#

Actually you right

slate lance
#

What if u got a no discard thing going

#

Like burglar, green

signal frigate
#

Legendaries don't ask for much

#

But sometimes constellation just feels like it's a legendary joker

wintry ice
slate lance
#

Legendaries scale fast

wintry ice
#

and burglar is the singular exception and it's an uncommon

white zodiac
signal frigate
slate lance
wintry ice
signal frigate
#

Same with Yorick

wintry ice
#

getting it to 4x is trivial

signal frigate
#

You could have 1 discard

slate lance
white zodiac
#

and burglars discard removal omits well, any joker/boss/seals that works with discards

signal frigate
#

And you could still get it to 5x in no time

signal frigate
wintry ice
wintry ice
signal frigate
#

+2 is good enough yeah, one discard and then 2 hands

#

Plus, pair spamming is a thing

#

So you can still scale it well

wintry ice
#

you always play all hands with green joker anyways

white zodiac
signal frigate
#

Constellation is deceiving

#

It makes you think it's slow until you blink once and suddenly it's 10x

void topaz
#

how far have you guys gotten with chips on plasma

slate lance
wintry ice
#

they don't have to come from the shop

signal frigate

#

blue seals are already sought after

void topaz

white zodiac

signal frigate
#

Basically the same

white zodiac
#

😐

signal frigate
#

But with how cheap they are, you don't need to be rich to make it work

wintry ice
#

tell that a 50% difference is basically the same to a statician

signal frigate
#

And blue seals exists

slate lance
wintry ice
#

trollface

white zodiac
#

50% price increase

signal frigate
wintry ice
signal frigate
#

At most, you're getting 0.3xmult per round

white zodiac
#

celestial packs cost 4
100% increase huh

signal frigate
white zodiac
#

this is excluding any rentals

void topaz
#

planets also free up a joker slot for chip joker

signal frigate
void topaz
#

like at some point chips jokers become fake

white zodiac
#

planets have a shop weight of 4 in the shop by default (4/28)

signal frigate
#

Im counting the rerolls

#

With mega packs, it's 4 yeah

white zodiac
signal frigate
#

They're considering the econ you're at

wintry ice
#

i think counting celestial packs you're getting like 2-3 planets per shop with just interest and a basic econ joker

slate lance
#

What do ee think is more worth it to copy with fool
Death or Hermit

#

Beginning of ante 2

wintry ice
#

hermit

white zodiac
#

herm

wintry ice
#

what do you have to copy with death

signal frigate
#

That's half an xmult per round

#

On average

slate lance
white zodiac
#

on paper vs in practice

signal frigate
white zodiac
#

I wouldn't even death that

signal frigate
slate lance
wintry ice
#

there's no reason to copy death then

slate lance
narrow wadi
#

1 round left on riff raff, i'm obviously getting rebate over credit card, then i think i sell swashbuckler (no egg or space and an eternal rental) and golden to get 2 more random jokers

signal frigate
wintry ice
#

and they're guarranteed

narrow wadi
#

unless i roll into something better

white zodiac
signal frigate
#

I think Hologram could be slightly worse due to it potentially fucking up your deck

#

But it scales relatively faster than constellation

signal frigate
narrow wadi
wintry ice
signal frigate
#

Blue seals make constellation scale like Yorick

#

It's pretty good

white zodiac
#

from my eyes

signal frigate
white zodiac
#

const risks are just it being expensive which isn't something to ignore

wintry ice
#

they're about the same

narrow wadi
signal frigate
floral mural
#

there is ups and downs to both but theyre different ups and downs so theyre about equal imo too

signal frigate
#

Scale similarly and still pretty strong

narrow wadi
white zodiac
#

const works better with stronger tools via blue seals and celestial packs

floral mural
#

i wonder would you prefer vampire or drivers license more in a run where you have lets say a cartomancer feeding you tarots

signal frigate
white zodiac
#

hologram works with cheap sources

wintry ice
#

hologram has a higher ceiling with the card generating jokers while constellation doesn't need you to bloat your deck with potentially useless cards

signal frigate
narrow wadi
signal frigate
#

Constellation only needs you to buy planets

narrow wadi
#

if i have an awful joker setup then vampire

narrow wadi
#

a big deck is completely fine for pairs

wintry ice
#

hologram needs you to take potentially useless cards while constellation needs you to spend money on things that would normally be useless for you

white zodiac
#

const also solves your chip/mult slowly overtime, it's just up to the run if you get it fast enough to see the scoring results pay off

floral mural
#

comparing hologram and cobstellation also depends on your current situation

signal frigate
#

You're taking any card just so it can eat good

white zodiac
floral mural
#

if youre running pairs you could take whatever and probably still draw a pair every time

signal frigate
#

That can potentially tank your deck

floral mural
signal frigate
#

Of course, the issue is nearly gone if you have DNA

floral mural
#

you have cartomancer and either drivers or vampire

narrow wadi
white zodiac
narrow wadi
#

it's very rare i see no card with some kinda card buff

signal frigate
#

Certificate might be good for the seals

#

It gives you a seal and scale Holo

white zodiac
#

cert and blue seals can function very well on its own without their x mult counterparts tbf

white zodiac
signal frigate
#

I was wondering if it'd be funny to have an enhancement that makes a specific card always appear as your first draw like in Cryptid

signal frigate
floral mural
# white zodiac prob vamp still

vampire is honestly much less reliant on you already having done some enhancing than drivers license is so dare i say i usually prefer it over drivers license

narrow wadi
#

rental acrobat over green joker?

wintry ice
#

i think hologram can work fine with larger hands

white zodiac
wintry ice
narrow wadi
#

abstract has 4 rounds left

narrow wadi
#

is a good 15 mult for safety every round while i scale

wintry ice
narrow wadi
#

my main question is do i even take acrobat? i feel like yes

wintry ice
#

alternatively you could sell mad joker

narrow wadi
#

ur completely correct

white zodiac
# wintry ice i think hologram can work fine with larger hands

from what I'm thinking so far, I think hologram does better in the worst case situation (rental, cheap card packs for x.25) while const ramps up more consistently in a better scenario (blue seals, good econ turning into a higher x mult gen per round)

narrow wadi
#

that is the play

Is this where I can ask dumb questions and get smart answers?

wintry ice

@wintry ice oh yeah I threw your checkered streak yesterday cause I forgot that flushes at base level has over 3x the amount of chips as pairs in that it would've been able to clear the a2 wall with nova

arent checkered deck flushes like almost as easy to draw as pair?

Ante 1 Polychrome Green Joker vs Foil Supernova

white zodiac
signal frigate
#

It's almost 50/50

wintry ice
#

yea but you can play less of them per round so supernova scales less

floral mural
#

hell with paintbrush its gurranteed

wintry ice
#

though flushes have better mult scaling so maybe that makes up for it

white zodiac
#

if it was any other hand mult scaler I would've probably said pairs

Photochad is the definition of free win. Chad itself can be a free win with a glass card and a blueprint or brainstorm copying it

But you'll need levels in whatever hand you're playing

heavy heron

but then they went on about how it loses to like… plant? pillar? and the 4 suits but i disagree completely; pillar you can counter with any enhancements at all, and suits you have 3 shops to change your suits

plant, sure

that's what makes it more costly than the average green joker (insert chip source) run

Also full house is inconsistent for ante 8 builds

heavy heron

i can’t make 2 full houses?

If you want a five of a kind build play ghost deck and find a cryptid.

yes it’s not always offered but if you survived 8 antes

you should have a build working

why go for lvl 7 5oak

so

what

like just go with 4oak instead

the scaling is basically the same

heavy heron
#

okay case in point, 4oak still works with trib

#

so what’s our deal LOOLLL

white zodiac
# heavy heron then, what else?

dilutes planet pool making it harder to find specific planets, card draw difficulty early on, certain boss blinds that hinder first draws/card draw, bottom decking, etc

rancid niche
#

If you're playing 5oak what's stopping you from doing flush five?

heavy heron
#

easy to build towards rank, not always easy to fix suits at the same time

white zodiac

Not that hard to fix suits tho

well you usually try to fix suits for a different reason

it’s not my biggest hand type

but it’s not low either

if you're deckfixing towards specific ranks, most of them will be of an specific suit

well it is kinda low huh

# white zodiac 3oak/2 pair is the usual trib safety net

the point i brought up 5oak for trib is that the base mult is 12, you don’t even need planets for it to be strong (although it’d help of course) and my problem with 2 pair is that the base mult is really bad so you somewhat need to find either retriggers or smth that adds mult before trib triggers

quartz ember
#

tbh full house is perfectly fine with trib, and you can go even less, but going for more complex hands of the same cards is just asking for bottom decking with no extra benefit for a8 runs

heavy heron
#

agreed, it works

#

but my argument for 5oak is purely high base mult without need planets to survive + in my opinion, easy to fix towards

#

i didn’t know there was a disagreement there but i can see it

Its pretty good with pair/ high card builds id say

white zodiac
# heavy heron i wouldn’t call it a start up, it depends where i am

depending on where I am is less frequent than basically being able to do it on the spot without major deck overhaul that jokers outside of trib will tell you to do.

consistency is a factor outside of trib so I'm not gonna be randomly making those runs before getting trib. it would be after then in which the first 2 reasonable poker hands (2 pairs, 3oak) have a better transitioning point than the third most difficult hand.

trib objectively doesn't need a higher flat mult/scaling if it's locked behind greater margins of deck fixing which also involves a hefty amount of rounds and smackaroons to spend.

# narrow wadi imo meeting scoring thresholds with a bad start is not that easy, getting an ear...

perkeo requires you to have your desired consumable upstairs to copy at the time you get her. at worst she generates 4 dollars which is golden joker with free consumable blocking tech

chico outright disables boss blinds upon getting it. the most consistent hand type in the game still has violent boss blinds and finishers that can very well kill your run (wall, needle, flint, eye, vv, crimson heart, etc). giving yourself a safety net is very valuable as it doesn't restrict your options when finishing the ante
