If first played hand contains [card], gain a random tag. (Card changes each round)

It works like Idol when choosing a card where it chooses a card in your deck, weighted towards dupes

i like the theming and it seems decently balanced

Yippee brebdance

#

It may be a little weak but it’s not the worst

#

Unless you hit like

#

Investment or the money double

muted wren
#

You can also get voucher and negative tags

olive marsh
#

Forgot about voucher

#

And coupon is good

#

Negative is fine but rarely harmful

#

Honestly this might be fair as a common

#

that's kinnda what i thought

north jewel
#

it could stay Uncommon if it was buffed to "if played hand contains [card], create a random tag (card resets every hand)"

muted wren
#

I think it's fine as is tbh

#

If it's too weak I'd rather it be made common rather than making it trigger multiple times a round

north jewel
#

fair enough

muted wren

#

How much will it cost though?

#

That's also a good balancing choice

muted wren
#

I got no clue on cost, like about on par with other value generators?

north jewel
#

value generators?

#

Elaborate

muted wren
#

Like cartomancer, rocket, etc. Anything that provides money or something similar that isn't scoring

north jewel
#

Econ cards, got it

#

I'd be willing to pay like, $5 at most for this joker

muted wren
#

The difference between a $5 and $6 joker is like so tiny that it doesn't matter much tbh

north jewel
#

Maybe only matters in the first two antes

#

How often does this change, or does it select once and stay forever?

wide crane
#

I assume it changes at the same time as the Idol

muted wren
#

Yeah changes each round, I’ll clarify

#

can it be copied?

#

From playing modded Balatro, getting tags inside shop or blind is always a bit clunky, but apart from that, seems balanced

oh i thought you mean getting the tag not using it

#

but yeah it is a little weird for things like booster packs and coupon. maybe D6 too

#

This might be a fun chaotic time with Idol levels of deck fixing.

#

I feel like this is a common since it requires first hand, and can only be done once a round tops

#

Either way; I love the idea, and it works with tags so that's a plus in my books

tall sigil
#

I like this one

#

seems really fun

#

In before this gives you a boss reroll voucher during the Big Blind, and rerolls to something that just murders you on shop exit.

#

If the Director's Cut has been redeemed, using the Boss tag to re-roll the next Boss Blind will also use up the one Re-Roll option.

this is a great concept

#

Actually this could be really tricky to pull off

#

But it does give something to do

wide crane
#

Implementation is done for this joker, but I don't have any art.

#

or ideas for art

tall sigil
#

Like how I know Idol is objectively great

#

Im just bad and dont like it

dire falcon
wide crane
#

That's a lot of pixels.

#

I'll see what I can do

wide crane
#

I hope it came out ok. I added the thin white border common to most vanilla cards, and also JOKER text at the top. I also reduced the size.

#

Thanks @dire falcon

dire falcon
#

I'm pretty interested in this so I might make a more polished, faithful version

#

I just threw that together in a couple minutes with an emoji and game assets

wide crane
#

The only other idea I had was jimbo looking in the mirror and seeing pennywise.

#

but that I felt was too complicated for a tiny pixel art.

dire falcon
#

its about the game of tag, not the media franchise It

wide crane
#

I know

#

Didn't say it was a good idea.
