Name it neutron star or smth and it’s basically the paring of supernova

Adds 10 chips per amount of times a hand has been played as opposed to mult

Feedback/thoughts?

I think you mean supernova

#

Good idea though

#

Yeahg

#

Neutron star or some other star is a much better name lol

Ok, now that's good

Mm not sure how I feel about near clones of ideas

#

It should have something to make it unique I think

#

the scaling on this is way too fast

#

most chips jokers gain around 15~20 chips per round with no support

#

and then get faster when you build towards them -- handsize for runner, fixing suits for castle, fixing ranks for wee

#

this is +40 per round right out of the gate

#

judging by the number on square joker it should probably be +4 or +5 per hand instead

True…

#

I’ll rework it a bit more in a bit

#

Other than the insane chip scaling, the issue I have with this joker is that. it is because supernova already exists. If a player were to have both of these jokers working together, planet cards become nearly pointless.

#

Would be better of the two to have for sure, especially on plasma deck

Square scales so fast yet so slow

#

ill give it a 🥱 cause its just boring

spring prairie Jul 28, 2025, 9:43 PM

#

I don’t thing boring is necessarily bad but this is basically a dupe of an already existing joker

#

Two people?! I thought it would separate them

#

supernova chips alternative: adds 8 times the number of times a poker hand other than played hand has been played to Chips

#

so total # of hands played - # of times played hand has been played

#

it's obelisk compatible!!

#

if you alternate between highcard and pair it scales like square joker
