Get a high score

[hazy pawn]

0 ante base scaling speed. After every ante, ×2 blind size, this value increases by 1 every time.
Start with both -1 ante vouchers, wasteful and grabber redeemed, meaning you start at ante -1, but with the normal amount of hands and discards.
Start with the soul, anke, and hex, all negative, ethernal and perishable with a counter of 1.
All boss blinds are wall/vessel
Banned: the soul, black hole, chicot
I did the calculation, and ante 8 will have a base size of 1,088,640,000. Remember its effectively ante 10 however, so its only slightly less than double the usual amount you need for the effective ante against the finisher

For anyone wondering why the soul is banned: you get 2 polychrome copies of a stackable legendary joker(not chicot), and this is what you need to work with

"When beating an ante, x2 score requirements instead of normal scaling, increases by 1 each ante"

start with a negative soul ankh and hex

For the vouchers you could do what you did or just add
"start at ante -1" to the description

Banned stuff: why those bans? chicot and soul I understand but the others?

[winged dove]

i think its kinda funny that this scales slower than normal endless scaling

[stone coral]

this is goofy

[wet aurora]

thanks, i didn't feel like reading all that

[wanton tinsel]

so this is factoradic scaling?

[hazy pawn]

Black hole is boring and completely out of your control. The needle is potentially 108,864,000 if you get it on ante 7. Mouth and eye can easily screw you when you usually need to play all hands

Psychic is fine still, unlike mouth and eye, and I did consider banning the tooth, but let's be honest: early game it's still easy, and late game you'll likely be playing high card for consistency

Black hole thing could be said for literally any other challenge in the game. With such high scoring required your build would be a oneshot build anyways, and banning hard bosses just cuz they're hard isn't a valid thing to do for a challenge anyways imo, it's not like those bosses are unbeatable or unfair, just hard

[hazy pawn]

Needle is just unfair late game, due to how high the score requirements will be

[vivid jacinth]

By that logic so is plant and flint

but that's not unfair! you had a double polychrome legendary start, if you're half decent playing the Game you can get a build that cruises through this challenge

there's no need to make It easier

or if you think bosses are unfair, replace them all with the wall

would kinda fit the challenge

[wet aurora]

It's not unfair, it's not a run ender

[hazy pawn]

I considered just doing this, but didn't think it was a good idea

[vivid jacinth]

then i wouldn't worry about banning any bosses, the only high-score killer is the plant anyways

[finite rain]

unban blackhole

[stone coral]

What if you get perkeo on the first shop

[finite rain]

this challenge just kinda blows ngl

[regal blaze]

It'd think about as fun as seeded runs (except the bonkers ones) and that obviously changes for each person

I don't think id like this though
