When blind is selected destroy the joker to the left.
1 in 2 chance to make two copies of it.
(removes negative from copy)

#

Oops all 6's would go crazy

#

Would this be a legendary

ocean nova
#

could probably stand to be 1 in 4/5

whole acorn
#

uncommon

ocean nova
#

yeah definitely would have lower chances then

whole acorn
#

anything above 1 in 3 would make this a bad joker

#

1 in 3 already makes it too risky

ocean nova
#

well compare it directly to invisible joker

#

invisible joker
-rare, costs the maximum a rare can
-hits a random target
-can only be activated once
-takes three turns of uselessness to turn on
-100% success rate

printer
-uncommon
-hits a target of your choice
-can be used multiple times
-can be used immediately
-33% success rate, destroys the joker if fails

well

#

i guess it could be rare

#

i thought invisible was uncommon

#

i can see a change to this

I like the idea a lot, it reminds me of crooked penny in isaac which is one of my favorite items

whole acorn
#

THAT'S EXACTLY WHERE IT COMES FROM

#

I tried making crooked penny into balatro

whole acorn
#

that's a bit more weird

sick tiger
#

I had a stupid idea for this

#

Stores the joker to the left of this joker when blind is selected, 1/2 chance to create a negative copy of that joker when blind is defeated, 1/2 chance of destroying itself instead

#

OA6 would destroy the joker immediately when blind is defeated

What about:

1 in 3 chance to make a copy of the Joker to the left.
1 in 3 chance to destroy it.
1 in 6 chance to destroy itself.

  • You can buff it with Oops all 6s, but it also makes it more likely to fail, so it's not too OP
  • With all these chances it really sells the idea of a really broken, unreliable printer
  • Has a lower chance to work than the original version (1 in 3 vs 1 in 2), but it also has a lower chance of failing
  • The idea of the printer destroying itself in the process is also fun
#

Also compared to the invisible Joker, you need three joker slots for the printer (the printer, the copied card and an empty slot), instead of just 2 ... which also balances it in a way

#

I don't think you'd want to keep the printer for long because of how much space it takes

#

Another fun idea could be 1 in x chance to add a negative to the copied joker

whole acorn
#

that feels too complicated in comparison to every other joker

peak perch
#

Ok

After it breaks is there gonna be ink you can find

whole acorn

#

Yeah, it would be a bit too much 😄 But I think even just having a chance to copy and chance to destroy should solve the oops all sixes issue

whole acorn
#

yeye

#

when blind is selected destroy the joker to the left of this joker.
1 in 2 chance to make two copies of it.
1 in 4 chance for this joker to be destroyed

1 in 2 and 2 in 3 to do nothing
