Banana fans stay winning

how do we hide the total results so they don't influence our ranking? πŸ˜…

Bro this is such a cool experiment

I zoomed in and scrolled up so I can't see them 😎

who the FUCK gave loyalty card a c

i am insulted

blissful vortex

results

candid furnace
#

It's always overkill. Yes it's useful getting insane numbers final blinds, but it is never useful just beating the game

blissful vortex
#

am I lagging what

fast aurora
#

and also, it's super useful when you are trying to win (4x is insane)

blissful vortex
#

OH WAIT I CANT POST IMAGES

wanton owl
#

yo who gave the "all planet cards in shop are free" joker s tier

candid furnace
#

Compare this to stencil, which is practically a free 2x in the final blind

fast aurora
#

vs stencil which is only 2x in the final boss or if you purposely lose another joker

this is fun

who is giving bus c πŸ§πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

@fast aurora You need six hands for it to work. You usually have to at least waste a joker slot on the second last blind to get it to work

half joker in c in total rankings hurts me

i havent tested it but does blueprint work with juggler

blissful vortex
opaque willow
#

also S and A are very close πŸ˜…

candid furnace
#

I feel like juggler is really good, but it doesn't really let you win. It doesn't give any bigger scores, just makes your scores more consistent. I'll usually use it early-mid game

juggler isn't as strong as other S tiers, but i have it in S because it's common

thick sky

i put four fingers in A only because it enables straight flush builds super easily

Fib + A2345 straights is fun

Four fingers makes my brain hurt

hot take: people are (slightly) undervaluing Dagger

That is most certainly a hot take

and polys ig but polys are good

indigo lark

it takes work to stack, but can pop off if you're careful

#

even without egg

#

20+ mult

thick sky
#

i have a hotter take: astronemer worst util joker and worst uncommon

It's such a huge money sink and doesn't give anywhere the mult it really should for the input required...

GROS MICHEL FOREVER

it still has no synergy in full release

besides egg

winter ice

scholar in A for me

fallen bobcat

i put Michel in B but he should have gone in A

opaque willow
#

does egg even count as synergy

fallen bobcat
#

i apologize

opaque willow
#

it only synergizes with Dagger once you yeet it

frosty spade
#

scholar in A because A is for Aces

my favorite strategy is melting the icecream and making it give me 0 chips

I also put marble in D

WTF do I even do with it, it fills my deck with bad stuff

marble underrated :(

indigo lark

hikers good in a endless scenario

thick sky

reposting my list for more criticism

worthy crater

I put marble in C just because it's the easiest way to get stone

Stone is bad though

GOLDEN in S???

i like marble a lot but it is b tier

Probably C

How the fuck is constallation in S
I don't get it
It takes soooo long to get to +10 mult

And people use abstract joker a LOT

@tender thistle this has been your best idea since creating this game

worthy crater

flush joker seems low rated imo. easy +10 mult for a reliable hand

candid furnace

#

sometimes i just hold stencil for verdant and only verdant

thick sky

#

Droll definitely bumps up a flush build

I’m surprised that michel is S but ice cream is B when they are very similar

Can we all agree astronomer is D

fallen bobcat
candid furnace
#

Why do I see so many people putting supernova above bus wtf

thick sky
#

astronomer is M teir

thick sky
opaque willow
#

abandoned deck = bus good
bus good = play a lot of hands
play a lot of hands = supernova good

thick sky
#

lets go blueprint stil has 100% S teir

grizzled locust
worthy crater
#

I put bus in A

grizzled locust
#

tbh

fallen bobcat
wary thicket
#

supernova + constellation literally is the speedrunning meta

granite granite
#

the real crime is splash all the way up in c tier

winter ice
#

bus good = play any hand without faces for the mult

indigo lark
thick sky
winter ice
#

supernova good = you can only play 1 hand

candid furnace
# thick sky they dont used abandoned

Even before I started using abandoned, I used bus more in yellow deck over supernova. They're both good still, but supernova is def not better than bus

worthy crater
#

Bus only works if you get it early

opaque willow
granite granite
#

bus is bad because i can’t play royal flush

wary thicket
opaque willow
#

1 or 2 good hands

grizzled locust
thick sky
#

fair but supernova doesnt have that bruh frick im a dumb idiot for playing this moment

worthy crater
fallen bobcat
thick sky
candid furnace
#

Supernova really does start working against itself after some time. Bus doesn't have that issue, you can still just play worse high card hands, unlike supernova where you're forced to play good hands you're prepping for verdant

opaque willow
#

supernova works if you pick it up at the end of the run, but bus doesn't

fallen bobcat
sour ore
#

supernova and bus are probably both equal tbh, they give you the same gameplay loop basically

thick sky
#

wait do yall prefer splash over stone cards

worthy crater
#

Not the wheel crashing my bus by making me play a flush instead of a high card

sour ore
#

and are good under the same conditions

#

get it early, follow the rule, win the game

indigo lark
#

their pros and cons of each weigh out to them being equal

thick sky
#

stone cards better frfr

wary thicket
candid furnace
#

I can easily get 40+ mult with bus, but only can get 25 or so with supernova

opaque willow
#

I think bus is better than supernova but supernova is also super good

thick sky
#

me when carto is consider A from most of you

worthy crater

FISH REACT THEM

# grizzled locust

most of this I agree with except for bus, DNA, egg, burglar, to-do list, the straight joker and ok actually you're just wrong

What are your thoughts on banner vs mystic summit? I kinda feel that banner is underrated and summit is slightly overrated

fallen bobcat

Crazy is common?

worthy crater

Summit is pretty good, banner is pretty bad but not terrible

indigo lark

#

Zany, crazy, droll and mad are all common

tbh i think dna is the worst rare

crazy? i was crazy onc-

indigo lark

#

DNA is certainly a bit annoying if you have no good cards to copy

thick sky
wary thicket
#

As a speedrunner I’m kinda biased towards banner tbh

sour ore
#

i think dna helps you get crazy scores

thick sky
#

tbh yeah no dna is prolly worse

sour ore
#

but it doesn't make me go "oh sick my run is saved"

Smeared defines the run

i can accept Cartomancer ending up in A tier

Golden Joker I can always rely on

#

to get me to 25 for that max interest

thick sky
#

my feelings are forever hurt now

candid furnace
# sour ore yes absolutely

I don't think smeared is bad, but it plays a role the same way that four fingers or juggler does. It offers consistency over points. And when you don't rake in enough points per hand, consistency doesn't matter

chrome meteor
opal oar
#

All my rankings within each tier are equal good

winter ice
sour ore
thick sky

#

and flush builds are very easy to make good

i played a king on accident, the bus should be deleted honk honk

#

imagine deleting buses with a king

steady nimbus
#

I am proud we all agree Blueprint is S

thick sky
#

fr 32 on S 100% on S

opal oar
#

I think the Joker with a hole in it that gives x2 Mult is the worst of the x2 Mult Jokers

sour ore
#

the only downside to a flush build is the lack of consistency, which 4 fingers and smeared joker both give you, but smeared is better because it revolves purely around the flush

opal oar
#

because less Jokers is less fun :<

steady nimbus

It pops off then

DNA is in the dusk camp for me, where it's good for getting high scores but never really carries a run

opal oar
sour ore
#

DNA also costs a hand to play

opal oar
#

here's the S cards so far

sour ore
#

and it requires a lot of wasted hands to actually scale to the point of creating value

thick sky

agreeable of all of these

AND you have to get it early enough

Supernova got my Flush deck to win after nearly a whole game of weak Jokers

yea I put DNA in A tier, it can absolutely define a run but it's quite risky and needs to come very early to be that good

here's my worst joker rankings

i forgor

lean gorge
#

yea I use half joker pretty frequently, I ended up putting it in A but B would maybe be more fair

winter ice

50x7 would be pretty pog ngl

50x7 is straight lvl2 iirc

winter ice
#

ah yes

#

maybe

thick sky
#

blueprint still 100% S teir les go

winter ice
#

actually i think it's 60x7

thick sky
#

yuh

#

but 3oak 50x5

#

50x20

#

so its witterally base 1000

#

no extra multis or chips

#

half joker go crazy

lean gorge
#

what I really wanna know is where this crowd of raised fist enjoyers came from, I find it super annoying and not that great

#

I guess it's really good with high card?

thick sky
#

dunno but B is fair enough ngl

#

buh why was this actually like funny and stuff lmao

winter ice
#

raised fist can go kinda hard, but only if you have control over your remaining hand

#

imo 20 max mult for the work isn't much better than a 10-15 mult with less conditions

thick sky
#

ig

#

3oaK builds my favorite ngl

#

anyways imma leave

candid furnace

#

I feel like only high card gives you that much agency over which cards you'll have left, if you're running straight/flush/5oak forget about it

winter ice
#

yeah the only low hands pretty much

i wish the live tiermaker would order cards within tiers based on how close on the vote they are to moving to another tier

this might be the most a community has agreed on anything

#

well I accidentally make Business Card A tier so whoopsies for me on the poll vote
did fix it afterward but this is my list anyway

blazing kernel
#

a bit weird contributing to Demo rankings, since many of these would change going into ante 10 runs. tried to be as objective as i can. also would prefer 6+ tiers, too many ended in B. (bus is also in B, i fat fingered)

plush moss
#

superposition's an easy D cause like

#

not only does it require a specific build, AND a specific setup,

#

but it's pretty much overshadowed by 8 ball, requiring only two 8s

jaunty wolf
fallen bobcat
#

That, or allowing wraparound straights

plush moss
#

yeah

jaunty wolf
#

tbf like the theme of Superposition is great but the efforts are not worth it

#

still think it is one of the most clever theme cards in the demo tbh

tender thistle
#

My biggest shocks here so far are probably:

  • Banana down in B despite the cult following
  • Juggler in S despite no pure score bonus
  • Cartomancer in A
blazing kernel
#

Cartomancer is nice, β€œfree tarots = good”

plush moss
#

cartomancer's an easy S tier tbh

#

tarot cards are really really good

#

blueprint + cartomancer's also yummy

frosty spade
#

juggler and cartomancer are both no-effort for a decent bonus

#

theyre nice

jaunty wolf
#

my experience:

  • Banana is chancy. You risk the chance of extinction so sometimes it may not be worth it if rng unfavors you
  • Juggler makes everything more viable. Boring but practical options
  • Cartomancer is basically buying 1 arcana booster pack at the start of every round. More random but card is still card
tender thistle
#

Cartomancer being A is also related to both 8 ball and Superposition being lower than I thought they would be

#

And Banana is just good vibes

#

It'd get S votes with a 0 mult

blazing kernel
#

I was mostly surprised by (some) people voting Hiker D and Burglar S

jaunty wolf
#

me same

tender thistle
#

Burglar has the widest range it looks like

plush moss
#

you might think that Burglar's good cause it lets you play more hands

#

but the true use for burglar

#

is giving you a chance for +3 more money per round

#

more hands = more money

i dont think its any good as cartomancer tops it as its unlikely that you'll get a the combo u need for it once let alone getting it twice that would make it "better" than cartomancer

compared to 8ball it’s way way harder to pull off and only pays out (i assume) half the time

who the hell put stencil in D

karmic ermine
#

wait someone literally put stencil in D

#

damn

#

I really don't wanna question their playstyle

winter ice
#

well, thunk said vote by any criteria you want

#

Oh my, Bus in S

i mean its pretty cracked when you get it early on

#

most preferrably ante 1

#

I was 100% certain the debate would just be around what the correct voting criteria should be, and since there are so many perspectives here I feel like that's not possible

#

A community ranking should also represent many perspectives of what 'good' and 'bad' are for a Joker imo

opal oar
#

S is the Jokers with the fewest reasons not to take

#

the lower the ranks you go, the more reasons you need to have to take

#

for example, the moment I see Blueprint I press the buy button like its second nature

blazing kernel
#

its usually not hard to differentiate some "obvious" good and bad. you can argue about econ things, playstyle things. but things that are free and doesnt require you to do anything will be usually higher

opal oar
#

Meanwhile if I see Ceremonial Dagger, I think about how the game gives you unplayable art pieces in the shop sometimes, admire the art, and ignore the fact that it has a buy button when you click it

blazing kernel
#

also specifically for bus, i really suspect that its mainly due to the limitation of the chosen decks for demo. i doubt it would be in S in current state, if abandoned deck would be not there. demo things really limit the perspective

frosty spade
#

fairly even over the ranks compared to other jokers so far

#

its 100% necessary for the gamebreaking highscores in the demo, but otherwise not very useful

viscid dagger
lament tendon
#

i've played bus with yellow deck, it still works.

scary face on the other hand is badly hurt by the plant, if that didn't appear every game i'd consider face card builds more.

glad everyone agrees superposition sucks
sad to see the hiker disbelievers tho

prisma dome
#

sad to see the people still believing in that shit card

#

sorry for the bluntness

tranquil matrix

uncalled for and couch potato pilled

#

hiker is kino

prisma dome
#

nuh uh

tranquil matrix
#

yes he is

#

lol

prisma dome
#

please explain

tranquil matrix
#

he is not very good but he isn't d
splash and hiker is fun and pretty viable if you get them relatively early and juice your rounds

#

i put him in C

#

but S for fun for sure

prisma dome
#

ok then

#

we shall go our separate ways on opinion

tranquil matrix
#

only cards truly worth being in d are superposition and planetomancer imo

prisma dome
#

planetomancer πŸ˜†

#

I’m going to start calling it that now lol

tranquil matrix
#

lol this is my contribution to balatro

plush moss
#

I think thats what it should be

#

Planetomancer nets you one planet card for free at the start of each round

#

while also making planets in the shop free

#

I feel like it'd improve it

#

Sure constellation still exists and would be like 😍 at the thought

#

But it'd make the joker very much good and viable

#

mostly.

#

Could do the alternative for Cartomancer

#

make it the same as planetomancer but for tarots (give 1 tarot for free + free tarots in shop)

indigo lark
#

i would just say nerf constellation after that to maybe x.075

#

to give astroneer the best synergy with that aswell as have telescope strats at the same time

#

would probably be busted in full release tho as observatory voucher (the upgraded telescope) gives u a planet pack upon entering the shop

#

someone put banner in S

#

may god help them

it kinda makes an S shape 😁

steady nimbus
#

Who is the one person who put blueprint in B?

winter ice
#

what a joker they are

left rampart
#

I mostly did it by vibes

#

I put Dusk too low in hindsight, it's the same tier as Loyalty Card (can save a borderline run)

fleet canyon
#

im of the opinion golden joker is s tier

left rampart
#

golden joker is extremely good but it's not run-defining

steady nimbus
#

I put scholar in S. I have had so many runs be based of it

teal roost
#

My list

small oriole
#

What the heck why is everyone putting it on C/D 🀣

teal roost
#

The card's just not that good, specially with how it does nothing in most meta strategies

#

Doing nothing in 5oak, flush or full house means the majority of runs don't use it, and using it in 4oak is really really bad compared to what else you could be doing with that joker slot

steady nimbus
#

Yea, I don’t normally take Splash

teal roost
#

In builds with 4 or more cards it's useless or neglectible, and in builds with 3 or less cards it conflicts with shredded joker, which is the biggest reason to even go for these builds

DNA and smeared in S 🀒🀒

young cairn
#

who else voted S for the +4 mult joker

#

I did

tranquil matrix
young cairn
tranquil matrix
#

dna is probably the second or third best S behind blueprint and maybe constellation

young cairn
#

I don’t need card dupe that often

#

I won’t take bus early on even on abanoned because I never farmed anything successfully

#

it just doesn’t scale that fast

tranquil matrix
#

you don't need it but what it can offer for a run is huge
especially since its one of the only synergies with deck card editions

#

bus is just boring but it is S imo
maybe like the actual top of A

young cairn
#

bboard is middle A for me

#

I like spamming The World so I can proc it easily

tranquil matrix
#

bboard isn't bad but definitely has a limit to its usefulness like stencil
just takes a lot more alteration to get there

#

so i put it in A

young cairn
#

I feel like to do list is probably low A or high B

tranquil matrix
#

to do list sucks i put it in C i think

#

you get hard blocked by straight flush and i swear it gives it to me as the second hand each time lol

young cairn
#

Also procing once and selling

#

is still net profit

#

provided you didn’t need the slot for smth else

tranquil matrix
#

golden joker is just a free to do list each blind
and most blinds you can usually only proc to do list once before you have to start focusing on chips

young cairn
#

the other time 3 times and I still won the blind

#

golden is def. super though

tranquil matrix
#

to do list is great if you can afford to burn thru all your hands for money
but at that point your deck is so strong why do you need the money? its purpose is a little bit self defeating unless you get lucky, which isn't a bad thing

young cairn
#

not S tier

#

just super

#

mid-low A ig

tranquil matrix
#

i like to see how much the community loves a basic joker like juggler lol

#

juggler is really really good for a common

young cairn
#

based

#

basically luck boost

tranquil matrix
#

and pretty much necessary if you take a lot of spectrals

young cairn
#

oh yea

#

buffs effectiveness of all card spectrals 2

tranquil matrix
#

i think it'd be cool to add an edition that gives +1 hand size

young cairn
#

Burglar would be somewhere around A for me

#

You can BP it at round start to get free hands

#

and it’s a free sell at leaf

#

otherwise just generally buffs your income slightly

#

I dunno about you but

#

4 fingers seem pretty bad to me

#

Usually if I’m on a flush run I would never lack that last card

#

I also don’t have the luck to go full straight flush

#

I guess it’s good for straight and sf runs

#

I find straights too bad though

#

there’s runner sure

#

and superpos

#

and the new ver buf

#

but…

winter ice
#

do you know the four fingers trick for straight flushes?

young cairn
#

yea

winter ice
#

ok

young cairn
#

Straights just seem too inconsistent to me

#

even with fingers

#

because there isn’t an easy way to buff the luck with tarots

#

unlike flushes where you spam suitconv

#

or house/oak builds where death/strength helps

steady nimbus
#

I like smeared for either straight flush or flush house builds, it lets me take either one of the 2 tarots that are black instead of just one

echo gorge
#

I am super surprised to see Supernova in S rank! How are people using it?

frozen ingot
#

After this Blueprint is getting hard nerfed and ruined dagger is gonna get hard buffed

frozen ingot
steady nimbus
young cairn
#

I imagine bp burglar bus would be insane

#

but I never had the combo

young cairn
#

because you probably buffed the hand real hard

echo gorge
#

It seems to me that Supernova can maybe get up to x15 at the very end of a run if you really focus on it, but cards like Even Steven and Fibonacci can get there far more easily

steady nimbus
#

haha yea, I love 5oak builds with aces and ouija

frozen ingot
#

Why is splash not in D tier, can someone explain please, Ive never used it properly part of a build so yea

steady nimbus
#

splash can sorta clutch out if you absolutely need to,

young cairn
#

high card/pair/3oak builds and you don’t see stone cards for some reason I guess

#

immediate D for me though

echo gorge
#

If you only play one hand, then it's likely getting you out in 1-2 turns per blind, preventing Supernova from climbing. If you're playing lots of hands per blind, it's likely that they're a bunch of different hand types, again keeping Supernova from getting good.

echo gorge
young cairn
#

yeah it’s terrible

steady nimbus
#

i love how Almost everyone put blueprint in S

frozen ingot
#

That 1 guy who put it in B tier

young cairn
#

Most of the builds(flush house, straight, sf, flush, house, flouse) use 5 cards alr

echo gorge
steady nimbus
#

I guess if you’re going a high card strat you can get a lot of them like building up the multi for the bus

#

I never take it so idk

young cairn
young cairn
steady nimbus
#

Ig Supernova and Bus are two ends of a spectrum, you want bus early and supernova late?

young cairn
#

yup I think

steady nimbus
#

yea you can build bus us really early but you can’t really with supernova

young cairn
#

nova applies retroactively I think

frozen ingot
#

I honestly feel like super-postion gets too much hate

#

its a C tier for me

echo gorge
#

It's a powerful effect, but it's so difficult to proc

young cairn
#

Idk about superpos because I don’t do straights often

#

but when I do do straights

steady nimbus
#

And you need either AKQJ10 or 5432A

young cairn
#

I can proc superpos every round

#

at least once

#

I can consistently get an ace low straight every round

frozen ingot
#

Its worse than 8 ball and the one that instantly gives you one on the blind no doubt but its not as bad as the ones in D tier, its still usable no?

echo gorge
#

I put it in D tier because I very rarely go for straights

young cairn
#

but I tried it once

#

was a good experience

#

so med B

echo gorge
#

I usually do horrible, horrible things to my deck to get 5oaks and full houses

echo gorge
young cairn
#

I just take hanged man and the world at every single possible opportunity

echo gorge
young cairn
#

like me doing a 5oak deck

#

and converting things to spades

echo gorge
young cairn
#

I don’t like 5oaks other than 5 Aces

#

I feel they’re a bit underwhelming

echo gorge
#

But getting 5 or 6 copies of one card is enough to get me focusing on my build

young cairn
#

5 aces does have insane scholar combo

#

scholar is Extra High A or S for me btw

echo gorge
frozen ingot
#

What does oijua do again?

young cairn
#

there’s a good chance the resulting is odd or will not proc fib

young cairn
echo gorge
young cairn
#

I just generally dislike spectral packs due to the inconsistency

I usually get terrible RNG in spectrals

young cairn
#

then get spectral hearts

echo gorge
#

I think Spectral packs are best early game, when you can respond to what they give you and build off of them

young cairn
#

I only get them mostly late game though sad

frozen ingot
young cairn
#

whoops

young cairn
#

agreed

#

wraith is also much more takeable early on

#

not so much of an impact, plus rare jkrs let you cost through the early antes

#

provided you don’t get bp and nothing to copy

frozen ingot
#

I spent $56 on wraith once to get blueprint it was worth

young cairn
#

and can’t get money to afford anything

echo gorge
# young cairn agreed

I deliberately spend almost all my money before getting a Spectral just in case it has a Wraith lol

young cairn
echo gorge
young cairn
#

the ripoff button is the one that geta more and more expensive
and makes you feel less and less lucky

#

a.k.a. reroll

echo gorge
#

Finally someone said it!

#

I have so many rounds where I roll into the 4th ante with $50 and a build that just needs one more joker to pop off, but a couple dozen rerolls later I get past the Plant, all I could find were a couple planets and an Hierophant, and I go up in flames in Verdant Leaf

young cairn
#

It’s such a ripoff that you probably can’t even see every joker once with $999

barren moat
#

Rerolls don’t really feel fun at the moment starting at 5$ imo

#

Very situational

young cairn
#

yeah

#

the reroll voucher is uhh

#

if you need it you’re wasting money

barren moat
#

An interesting voucher…

young cairn
#

because 10 rerolls is just

echo gorge
#

You really do have to buy 7/10 rerolls before it saves you any money at all, huh?

#

That's terrible

young cairn
#

crystal ball might be a bit justified if emperor and prietess gave you up to 3 tarots/planets, idk

steady nimbus
#

I just spend all my rerolls to find a dud joker

#

Right before the final fight

#

i look for an easy sell so I don’t have to debate which one to lose

young cairn
#

grabber gives some extra money to reduce its effective price

steady nimbus
#

overstocked is very nice

young cairn
#

agreed

steady nimbus
#

Ok now we need tarot, spectral, and Voucher tier list

young cairn
#

I think icely once commented β€œI can spend money to have the priviledge to spend more money, nice idea”

steady nimbus
#

Not planets cause they all can just help constellation,

young cairn
steady nimbus
#

yea, like I grab earth and Planet X a lot

young cairn
#

Used to get earth and jupi a lot

#

now I usually get jupiter and X

#

sometimes Earth still

#

because it does help pre-5oak setup complete

#

and just generally for house runs

steady nimbus
#

yea, whenever I get a planet pack I hope for what I am going for

young cairn
#

do you usually get telescope

barren moat
#

Might be the worst voucher to me, I don’t ever really have a use for it

young cairn
#

me too actually

brisk crag
#

If you're going for wins

#

If you're going for high score shenanigans sure duplicating your poly glass cards is nice

#

But for consistent winstreaks I would almost never take DNA

young cairn
#

I would rarely take DNA but

#

I'll at least put it in B and feel justified

steady nimbus
young cairn
#

same lol

barren moat
#

I play heavy into monohand so its almost always a buy from me if i have the money

gloomy wind
#

I'm not a big fan of DNA as it can cause bloat if you arnt removing enough, making those extra cards seem harder to even get if you wernt removing without it

plush moss
#

this tier list thing should be done for planets and tarots too

#

not because it's necessary

#

but because i wanna see how many S votes jupiter gets

#

big boy

opal oar

Planet X is A-B

neptune β›”

barren moat
#

I love DNA I don’t think I would say it’s S but it’s at least high B more likely A

#

Also bloat of what you want isn’t realllyyy bloat to me

tranquil matrix
#

bloating the deck is still a problem
you're more likely to pull your desired card but if you don't have any hanged mans or spectral burns a 60+ card deck can get dicey to win with

plush moss
#

i love the little guy

#

uranus insta D tier tho For Sure

steady nimbus
#

Okay we need to get a tier list for the other things

frosty spade
#

Blueprint isn’t 100% S anymore lmao

#

It has a single vote for B tier

tranquil matrix
#

b for blueprint πŸ“˜

brisk crag
#

πŸ…±οΈNA

hybrid wagon
#

Okay how is smeared joker s tier c'mon. B tier at most imo. I personally think smeared is worse that 4fingies and that card is uncommon.

plush moss
#

makes straight flushes 50% easier

#

makes flushes 50% easier

#

makes flush house 100% easier

#

4 fingers + smeared joker = awesome

hybrid wagon
#

as I see it 1 suit tarot can make flush houses available

steady nimbus
#

agreed

plush moss
#

30+ if you're running abandoned deck

#

and it has to be THAT suit too

hybrid wagon
#

ok, this is definetly biased due to me only using abandon deck but yeah 1 suit tarot can make you have a flush house

plush moss
#

while if you had smeared joker it can be either that one or the alternative

#

smeared joker is just very good in general

hybrid wagon
#

the gripe I have is that smeared joker is a rare that takes up a slot which can be completely pointless if you change your deck using tarots

plush moss
#

sure if you're aiming for straights, high cards or 5oaks it doesn't matter much

hybrid wagon
#

and I guess that shows how I like to play

plush moss
#

but for builds that contain flush it's huge

plush moss
#

so I got cocky and sold it

#

drew all the hearts at the end (and died)

hybrid wagon
#

were the hands not scoring enough or did you not get the hearts quick enough?

plush moss
#

latter

#

but if i had kept smeared joker i wouldn't have had that problem

hybrid wagon
#

maybe I am too abandon deck blind because I usually get flush houses after like 2 suit tarots

#

so then my joker slots can go to buffing them

#

but I can see that I would be harder with the 8 extra cards that don't match the suit

#

okay one more hot take for me to give, why is ice cream A-tier?

#

I see it as similar to banana just more consistent, a decent boost that goes away eventually. Nice in the early game but not anything crazy

#

like odd todd can give the same boost if you build your deck around odds

plush moss
#

there's your answer

#

"if you build your deck around odds"

#

ice cream can just run with any deck no matter the build

#

and until it reaches 50 chips it's overall pretty neat

#

the worst build for ice cream is one that consists of high cards and even then it's not entirely awful

#

i've had it melt a couple times

hybrid wagon
#

I feel like the best builds for ice cream would be ones that have 1 big winning hand as that would minimize melting.

#

ice cream definitely isn't bad though

south stone
#

Did the thing. Forgot what some of them did, had to look them up.

#

Was a pretty cool thing.
