You just hate how unreliable obelisk is?
Well here are some buff ideas:
-In a scenario where there are 2 most frequent hands (they have the same amount of uses), Allow both to be played.
-Perhaps change it from 0.2x addition to 0.5x as it is more rewarding and honestly a hard condition to maintain. Along with cards like throwback existing.
That's my take on obelisk.
maiden river
0.5x is overtuned

Obelisk is already very strong and good, it doesn't need any buffs

learn how to use it before suggesting it needs to be better

Maybe...
It's cause I got screwed over when I had an equal amount of played hands
It's happened every time I've decided to take obelisk

so prepare for obelisk better lol

They just appear in my setups ok (it was eternal most of the time)

Obelisk is great with any chips joker since you don’t feel the lack of planets from your most played hand

Wild card synergy

i mean who says you have to keep scaling runner #tbh just get it to a good position and then start playing other hands with obelisk
Easy!

Its just sad
Not bad or anything

you do realize this would make it an infinitely scaling x.5 mult joker for pairs 
tepid ledge
buff idea
look inside
makes it an infinitely scaling +.5x mult per hand joker
I mean you can’t say this wouldn’t be a buff

My only thing is, isnt every ither scaling joker infinite?
(Dw ik this idea sucks)

Well, I mean, madness gives 0.5 for 2/3 of blinds, the proposed obelisk gives 4 times that on base hands for every blind and doesn't destroy other jokers.

I think the first idea might be okay, but the second idea is a bit busted

First idea just has you alternate between pair and high card which is lame
sonic merlin
What about if all hands are equally played?
tacit mica
You’re never going to reach that in an actual game, you’ll never have straight flush played as often as 4oak

0.5x mult was literally how it was initially during the demo IIRC, it was very OP and therefore nerfed to eventually what it is now.

Well yes, however the way it’s worded would mean you have to do absolutely zero setup, which would mean it’s just +.5x mult per hand.
