humble spruce
Next gen edition
Appearance/VFX: applies a smoothing filter on the card making it look less pixelated and more «HD».
Effect:
+3 Poker hand levels if this card contributed in scoring the hand.
Notes:
• Compatible with both Jokers and playing cards.
• «Contributed in scoring» for a Joker means that it has to get triggered.
• Poker hand level bonus is applied to the currently scoring poker hand respectively.
• Synergies with Splash accordingly.

This seems a lot of work for something that is arguably worse than a foil.

Wdym a lot of work?
I also probably didn't put into consideration that leveling always upgrades by the same amount of mult/chips and doesn't accelerate
My bad
lethal lantern
Having to apply a filter only to a section of a screen.

I'm sorry, isn't that how all editions work?
Just an overlay
lethal lantern
You want a smoothing filter on a single card

You want a smoothing filter on a single card
You talk like you know how it works
But have you ever actually worked with Love2D?
or Lua?
Also, why does implementation matter? I'm here pitching a general idea
a concept
lethal lantern
Not arguing there are efficient ways to go about it, but the thing I'm saying is this seems to go a step further than just a gameplay addition for a single cosmetic effect.
Which anyway I already commented about, it's kinda worse than a foil/hologram.
Gives me an idea for a joker though.

3 poker levels is still worse than foil/holo?
Starting with 3OAK and higher it gives +6 Mult and +60 chips
And from here it only gets bigger
lethal lantern
Ah you changed to +3, it was +1 before.
humble spruce
Ah you changed to +3, it was +1 before.
Yeah, I mentioned that its was weak at the very beginning,l cuz leveling doesn't accelerate
lethal lantern
Depends still. Lower scoring hands still have weaker power.

Sure thing

+3 mult +45 chips on a pair

lethal lantern
Depending I might take a hologram
humble spruce
And that's totally fine
It's a slightly situational edition
With a big scoring potential
lethal lantern
Yeah for a straight it's +9 mult +90 chip, that's more power.
Too much power even. Makes it pretty uneven.
humble spruce
Yeah for a straight it's +9 mult +90 chip, that's more power.
Isn't straight an exception?
cuz they are harder to get
Flush levels are worse than straight levels even though flush stays above straight in terms of "rarity"
lethal lantern
You need to look at the increment a planet card grants, not the level.
A flush is +15 chip +2mult
humble spruce

These are the increments
Read
?
lethal lantern
I read these are level 1 to level 2 differences but they're also wrong?
Straight should be 7
humble spruce
Neptune is +40 chip +4mult
Do you have an up to date sheet?
lethal lantern
It's literally on the wiki and in the game
humble spruce
Send a link to that wiki page

Straight should be 7
7?
@lethal lantern my point still stands tho. Straight is an exception: being a more common poker hand but still giving more chips and mult when upgrading it
lethal lantern
You can reliably make a four of a kind deck too.
And anyway your idea is about giving 3 extra levels when it scores. You're not to look at the jump from 1 to 2, but the gain from 3 levels on each type of hand, is what I've said.
humble spruce

Sure? I see nothing wrong with that
lethal lantern
It can be way too strong too.
Have a death card in hand, a 4 of a kind now scores +18 mult +180 chips
humble spruce
It's just 3 poker levels. It's better than foil and holo but worse than poly
That's all to it
The twist is that the card with Next geb edition should fit into your build
and contribute to the main poker hand you play
lethal lantern
As I said, -oaK builds.
humble spruce
Fine, let it be strong with them, why not?
Regardless, it's hard to tell for sure how it will play out without playtesting and statistics
lethal lantern
It just seems a bit disembalanced, it's at worst a better foil, at best, a way better polychrome
It's not hard to notice. Just the base chip gain from 3 levels almost always beats the +50 from a foil
And you also get +mult

It would be hard to find in a run when it would benefit you

Blue seal does this once at the end of the round, and is easily the best seal in the game.

From what i can tell this is temporary levels though
wanton wedge
The description said nothing about it being temporary
elder wind
I feel like it is +3 levels when scoring, not perma
