What about abilities that can’t be halved such as four fingers or chicot?

What about abilities that can’t be halved such as four fingers or chicot?
They aren't affected
stone kestrel
Didn't it used to specify that?
fierce iris
That’s kinda too op
acoustic vine
So if you do merge something like four fingers and chicot then it's basically a free negative
stone kestrel
This just feels unvanilla to me
fierce iris
I guess but shouldn’t it be more balanced to do rng for the effects
stone kestrel
Its a very cool idea, and would work as a rare, but it's so out there
acoustic vine
Didn't it used to specify that?
Yeah but I feel like if non numerical jokers can't be merged it's not very good
stone kestrel
Its a *very* cool idea, and would work as a rare, but it's so out there
Its just too weird and complex to fit into base balatro IMO
fierce iris
Like chicot only works half of the time
stone kestrel
The games about simple mechanics and how they interact, this is just a (even if very cool) full blown new complex effect
acoustic vine
Like chicot only works half of the time
That could be cool but also very unreliable
fierce iris
That could be cool but also very unreliable
Yeah except if you also have an oops all 6s
It whould be a cool synergy

That makes a lot of sense, but I think it'd be pretty cool to have the freedom to apply negatives if you're willing to take a nerf

Yeah, but juat apply negatives then, no need to use this mechanic
stone kestrel
Yeah, but juat apply negatives then, no need to use this mechanic
gave myself an idea so i js made a post lol

It's not as easy to get a negative though
This is for like an average run
Not those insane endless runs that go to naneinf
stone kestrel
It's not as easy to get a negative though
yeah, but thats because of how good negatives are
Negatives are for the average run, i just think its such a powerful ability that its important to keep it somewhat niche, if that makes sense

That's why the affects are cut in half, is your supernova now giving you +0.5 mult not something to look out for?

when you can do it 3 times before you're out of slots to work with, that isnt the end of the world
you can effectively fit 8 jokers off of finding this once, even if 6 of those are halved that's INCREDIBLY strong since you control which 6 are halved
