This joker swaps the mult and chips. (It might be stupid), the thought process was that overall its easier to gain chips than mult (not xmult) so why not swap it and the xmult will multiply a much larger number.

This wpuldnt help Xmult ironically enough

#

It'd help flat chips/mult

Just realized I didn't explain- basically, 2x to mult will always end up with the same result as 2x to chips

#

multiplication will always wield the same result in the end. The two numbers (chips & mult) being as close together is only "most effective" when dealing with flat mult and/or flat chips

It's not useless if you can time the swap.

For instance, if you have a Stuntman and a Brainstorm, you can order them as Stuntman, Portal, Brainstorm, and then get +250 chips, turn it into mult, and then get another +250 chips, giving 250x250 = 62500 chips, instead of 500 chips.
