#Flower Pot (new idea)

x1 Mult for each unique suit in played poker hand.

That means a flush will not activate it. 2 suits will make this give > x2 Mult, 3 suits x3 Mult and all four suits x4 Mult
And the flower pot on the card should have 4 different colored flowers (I posted a picture for vibes, can't redo the artwork myself).

Is this something?

EDIT: Okay maybe this is a liiiitle bit more powerful. This could be a rare joker then, I guess. Another option would be to raise the x Mult only by 0.75 per suit. So:
2 suits x1.75 Mult
3 suits x2.5 Mult
4 suits x3.25 Mult

x0.75 Mult per additional unique suit in Poker Hand.

EDIT: woops. yeah, the image seems to be AI, I didn't notice it when I was hastily looking for an image of a flower pot how I imagined it. Pic deleted. I posted a mockup of my idea down below 👇

This feels very powerful

Seems good to me

Stone cards = x0 mult?

fleet moat
#

I assume they dont count

noble saddle
#

If you throw a stone high card then you have 0 total suits in your hand

#

So if they don't count, then that's x0 mult

hollow stone
#

Ok well tbf that’d be pretty funny

fleet moat
#

X0 mult breaks iirc

noble saddle
#

I mean, it sets your mult to 0. It can be dragged back up afterwards from subsequent jokers.

x0 mult still defaults to x1 ClairenShrug

#

also the image is generated

#

balance idea is good though

Wild cards might finally be worth it if they count as all 4

#

And this has been proposed a lot and it's too powerful

#

In my opinion almost anything is better than seeing double gros_michel

turbid tapir
#

I think either make flower pot 4X (cause of 4 suits, alr proposed a lot too)
Or this but scales in intervals of .5x

turbid tapir
#

Imo it's not bad

#

It's a fine temporal xmult that helps survive till I get your scaling stuff online

generated?

#

AI generated?

slate tangle
#

Yep

fleet moat
#

😔

#

ai sucks

slate tangle
#

yyyep

fleet moat
#

it makes me feel negative emotions

slate tangle
#

gurl, same

#

now I wonder, can I replace that image..? hm

fleet moat
#

so realge

#

not sure

wind pagoda
#

Doesnt change any of my other points

#

Trying to get a flowerpot-valid hand in an unfixed deck without splash is about as difficult as finding a 4oak in an unfixed deck

eternal osprey
#

But I will never change my mind about seeing double gros_michel

grim mulch
#

It can be any but it can only be 1

quartz summit
#

Well then wild cards are still useless 😒

Okay so, two edits:
FIrst; maybe this version of the flower pot should be a rare then, because powerful
Second: I deleted the AI pic
However, I actually had a few minutes and threw this together: (couldn't find away to attach it to the OG message)

wind pagoda
#

I like it alot

#

Fits the colour's of the suits too which is dope

slate tangle
#

Aaand another idea added to the og idea:
Another option would be to raise the x Mult only by 0.7 per suit. So:
2 suits x1.7 Mult
3 suits x2.4 Mult
4 suits x3.1 Mult

#

Since Tribe, Family and Order and such are also rare, it makes sense for this to be a rare, but a little weaker than I initially proposed.
However, this would still be a better joker in my opinion, since it has more usability, while the original Flower Pot is rarely seeing any use at all

#

I can get behind that

#

not gonna pretend i love it, but compared to the original idea im much more onboard

im not even colourblind I'm just too lazy to look at the shape

#

0.75 so the numbers aren't as weird

#

this kind of rework has been already suggested few times before

floral estuary
#

Pretty art. I do generally like the idea but it feels unnatural for 1 suit to be 1x, with the value changing for more suits

#

Wording it sounds tricky for that to be intuitive

#

Since otherwise people would assume you get 1.75x mult for playing a flush

marble junco
#

"Joker gains ×1 mult per unique suit in played hand" isn't that hard to understand

floral estuary
#

I meant the rework

I seriously doubt LT is actually looking through this forum for suggestions.

slate tangle
#

Well doubting the very reason this idea suggestion forum part exists doesn't help at all.

noble saddle
#

I mean... this forum almost certainly exists as an outlet for users to voice their ideas and discuss them with one another specifically so that LT doesn't have to dedicate bandwidth to it. Maybe he'll put in once every few months and look at one or two ideas. Or maybe he has someone he trusts forwarding him interesting ideas. But speaking as a former indie dev myself, there's so many demands on your attention that it's best to just disconnect, and if LT is like I was, then that means this forum is probably best used for cool vanilla compatible mod ideas, rather than serious suggestions that have a decent chance of making it into the game.

#

Not knocking LT, he's certainly doing a better job than I did, and his game is significantly bigger.

Whats the difference between again and ☝️?

I thought that was ♻️

Both are

Unfortunately, since Again is also now the default react, people have been using it as an upvote, so its meaning is less clear.
