#Matador does not trigger on The Hook.

maybe cause its specifically the hand that needs to trigger the blind effect
if it's intended then fine, whatever. But I saw another post about a different boss having the same problem, so if it is intended, then matador just isn't a very good joker
Yeah it doesn't trigger on The Tooth either, which was infuriating cause I only took it because I saw the boss blind and that seemed like a perfect way to counter it
I just did the exact same thing on my run and was going
when it didn't trigger
the wording on matador suggests that it should work for both tooth and hook. pumping for visibility
agreed - it’s a little difficult to surmise that like playing a 4 card hand on the 5 card boss kicks it but a debuffed diamond on that boss doesn’t
it feels like it should have a trigger condition for every boss almost - even on Needle playing a hand should trigger and on Water you should just get the money when it takes your discards
if it would somehow be too powerful if it activated on all bosses, a simple (compatable) would work
I doubt it would tho. And if so, maybe cap the amount you can earn per boss like they do with certain tarots
Really, any card that creates wealth without helping you beat blinds is already a trade off anyways, so it would only potentially be broken on builds that benefit from that (ex: the bull joker)
Probably wouldn't even need to cap it actually, just lower the payout accordingly
End of the day you are only gonna be able to trigger it as max once for each hand, and for many bosses that probably too dangerous
