#Some decks that (could) go hard. IDK yet

I have been COOKING UP with some cool deck ideas, check em out

Buffoon Deck: Start with 1 random eternal joker that has one random edition applied to it.

Stone Deck: 26 random cards in the deck will be transformed into stone cards.

Speedy Deck: Halves the duration of anything that will trigger in X amount of rounds. (Ex: Loyalty card triggers every 3 rounds.) This one may be better as a joker, like Oops! All Sixes

Smoldering deck: When Blind is selected, destroy one card from deck. Things that ADD chips and mult are multiplied by 1.5x

Burnt Deck: 26 cards are randomly removed from the deck. Still probably better than Black Deck

smoldering deck seems like pure upside

#

burnt deck is also just a better abandoned

  • Buffoon seems interesting, trying to build around one random Joker could be very fun, but maybe instead of an edition, having it be uncommon or better would be nice? That way you can buildaround it typically
  • Stone Deck -- Looks like good early game that you try to pivot out of late game, might be too polarizing of a enhancemen count, especially with stuff like Vampire
  • Speedy Deck -- I need more use cases for this, seems extremely niche
  • Smoldering Deck -- Seems crazy strong for the price of random deck thinning, but I'm also not huge on the playstyle. If any card can blow up, you will avoid buffing your cards with editions or single enhancements like steel, it seems like a rough way of doing randomness
  • Burnt Deck -- Crazy good, Abandoned deck is consistent in what ranks you get, but having so few cards is still incredible; It makes all enhancements easy to draw and all added cards very impactful

something like buffoon existed in old demos, then was removed because it encouraged restarting until you got a good joker

You seem to be making the mistake of thinking removing cards is a downside

smoldring does not need a buff

#

it's it's own buff and debuff

#

cuz i think that it may be a bit too powerful

Small decks are usually pretty good just bc everything you do to them is more likely to come up during a round, 1 steel card is an almost guaranteed find in a 26 card deck, while being pretty rare in a 54 card deck

#

that is a good point, but kinda like erratic deck, burnt deck would have random cards removed, making it kinda difficult to find a synergy between cards and jokers buffing cards by rank. Also, if you dont play carefully you could easily run out of cards

#

and 4 of a kinds are rare

Buffoon deck would be kinda crazy. Would be a hold R deck until you get a holographic joker or a good joker to coast off of

#

There was one deck that started with a joker that got removed due to its hold R nature

#

Burnt deck is crazy wtf

#

“Probably better than black deck” is an understatement

#

If burnt deck existed it may as well be the best deck in the game outside of endless play
