Rare: Adds x0.2 mult each time a played card activates a joker this hand (technical note: It always starts at x1)
The idea behind this is to encourage people to get more obscure jokers (like Fibonacci) not for the joker itself, but for the plus x0.2 mult it now procs
barren latch
First of all, that art is so sick
atomic stone
really cool art
barren latch
But the wording is a bit confusing
visual heron
1, thank you guys, I've been drawing this art for so long I cannot tell weather it's good or not
visual heron
But the wording is a bit confusing
2, let me see if I can say an example
say you play:
A, A, A, 4, 4
with a scholar and even steven
the first ace procs a unique joker, so plus x0.5 (total of x1.5)
the second ace procs a joker, so plus x0.5 (total of x2)
the third ace procs a joker, so plus x0.5 (total of x2.5) etc etc
atomic stone
if you had odd todd as well, would get an extra 1.5x for each A?
visual heron
if you had odd todd as well, would get an extra 1.5x for each A?
yes
(but not an extra 1.5, just 0.5)
visual heron
well if you play an ace with scholar and odd todd:
Ace procs a unique joker (Scholar), so plus x0.5, the same ace procs anoteher unique joker (odd todd), so plus x0.5 (total x2)
barren latch
That's also pretty busted and much easier to get high multipliers on than Constellation and maybe even Hit the Road
atomic stone
yeah, i really like the idea, but its a bit strong
visual heron
well can you help balance it?
barren latch
"×0.5 mult for each other joker that targets card ranks" maybe
That might be a bit weak tho
atomic stone
i like the requirement of the jokers getting activated
how about- couldnt think of how to phrase it succintly lol
barren latch
"Adds ×0.5 mult for each other joker that is triggered"
So if your hand triggers all 4 other jokers, ×3 mult
visual heron
what about plus x0.2?
atomic stone
lowering the amount seems like a good idea to me
barren latch
Making it a permanent increase would scale far too fast, but ×0.2 is too weak if it's only for the hand
atomic stone
yeah, per-hand
visual heron
yes it's per hand
atomic stone
that way youre incentivised to play cards that proc as many of your jokers as they can
barren latch
Oh, I see how
atomic stone
ace 5oak with pareidolia, scary face, odd todd, scholar, dusk, and this joker lol
barren latch
"Adds ×0.2 mult each time a card triggers another joker"
barren latch
ace 5oak with pareidolia, scary face, odd todd, scholar, dusk, and this joker lo...
And Sock n Buskin
visual heron
so it's "Adds ×0.2 mult each time a played card triggers a unique joker"
barren latch
Why do you say "unique joker"?
atomic stone
doesnt even have to be unique
barren latch
You can just say "×0.2 mult each time a card triggers a joker" because cards don't trigger this joker
atomic stone
"Adds x0.2 mult this hand each time a played card activates a joker"
barren latch
Jinx
atomic stone
gotta have "this hand" in there
limpid lion
First of all, that art is so sick
it's amazing fr
barren latch
Yes
limpid lion
the artwork dude is always top notch with you my guy
visual heron
because say if you have two scholars and play an ace, it's not:
Ace procs a unique joker (Scholar), so plus x0.5, the same ace procs the other joker (scholar again), so plus x0.5 (total x2)
atomic stone
because say if you have two scholars and play an ace, it's not:
Ace procs a uniq...
honestly i think thats okay
barren latch
because say if you have two scholars and play an ace, it's not:
Ace procs a uniq...
I think if you get two scholars you should still get rewarded for both of them
atomic stone
there arent many ways to get duplicates in the full game and they still cost a joker slot
barren latch
Like how it should work with Blueprint, right?
atomic stone
oh! you should absolutely share your art in #🎨・fan-art though!
visual heron
I'm just thinking about those pre-demo high-score runs that have a million jokers
barren latch
Those are pure insanity anyways
limpid lion
oh! you should absolutely share your art in <#1153815324643299458> though!
yes please
barren latch
What's another ×20 on top of 1 sextillion points anyway?
visual heron
What's another ×20 on top of 1 sextillion points anyway?
ok yeah but, I feel like it ruins the point of trying to get more obsure jokers when you could just duplicate the same one over and over again
limpid lion
What's another ×20 on top of 1 sextillion points anyway?
20 sextillion!
visual heron
but then again if you're at the point where you can duplicate I don't think this card really matters
barren latch
ok yeah but, I feel like it ruins the point of trying to get more obsure jokers ...
Finding the other jokers is probably easier
visual heron
Finding the other jokers is probably easier
yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
atomic stone
theres only 1 joker that duplicates a joker you already have, and it self destructs when it does (and is rare), and only 1 joker that lets you find duplicates naturally
barren latch
This has given me another idea which I'll put in another thread
visual heron
you guys convinced me!
atomic stone
yayy
visual heron
send me a rewording of the card so I can ctrl c, ctrl v credit, it
atomic stone
Gains X0.2 each time a played card activates a joker this hand
atomic stone
are we not?
limpid lion
go with it
atomic stone
i thought that was agreed on
visual heron
alrighty!
atomic stone
x0.5 would give x3.5 with just a single on-card joker
x0.2 is more balanced i think
visual heron
mmm fair, but you'd need 5 jokers to get to x2
atomic stone
youd only need 1 wouldnt you?
visual heron
which seems a bit, meh
atomic stone
if it activates per card
visual heron
oh right
atomic stone
AAAAA with scholar and no other on-card jokers gets to x2
visual heron
you're writting my own joker for me!
atomic stone
so its like an extra x1 for each on-card joker you manage to proc on every card (but also smaller bonuses if you cant manage every card, which is nice)
barren latch
Yeah, most good ×mult jokers are rare
visual heron

THE ART
I WOULD BUY IT
HOLY

I WOULD BUY IT
And that kids, is why some people collect cards
But thank you nonetheless!

IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL

we need local to see this idea

Has anyone said Synerjoker yet btw, i don’t even know if thats anything but i like it

How about just 'synergetic'

The art makes me think they’re assembling Joker Exodia or Joker Megazord

HOLY CRAP 23 UP VOTES AND NONE STOP PRAISE TY ALL ALL SO MUCH

I do think it should be +0.1 instead of +0.2 but really cool idea
visual heron
My gratitude for all of this is unimaginable
limpid lion
that's just how the style is, very few jokers dont have the text because they're special like the legendaries
I wonder what special jokers we could come up with
quaint folio
very few?
there are about 35 jokers in the demo which do not include the word 'joker'
visual heron
Not to burst into the conversation but I would like to mention that it's by law to have the name "joker" drawn in every card
quaint folio
i meant in the name
as in cartomancer, constellation, etc
having '(insert name here) Joker' gets kinda boring
visual heron
Personally I think that's an odd opinion but to each their own
limpid lion
having '(insert name here) Joker' gets kinda boring
ooh I see
sorry I thought you meant to have on the card, and I agree
hence my last joker was, "Go fish" not "fishing joker" as I originally planned
my misunderstanding
