The Prism - Rare

Any Poker Hand played "includes" all hands scoring under it. For instance, Flushes would count as being straights, two pairs, pairs, etc. This won't influence mult or chips in any way, and uses the same level of the actual hand played. This would allow jokers like the tribe or order or the duo, all to influence one single hand. No hands ranked above the played hand are included, and the values of the played are also not influenced.

The Joker art could resemble light shining through a prism.

to-do list be like

#

tbh this isn't bad i an't think of anything where it would be insanely broken

lament glade
#

it's kinda specific with it's usecases

steady charm
#

deck building for five flush would be ridiculously overpowered

I can make duo work with 4oak 🔥

if my most played is pair, 3oak doesn't trigger ox

lyric wave
#

Dio and trio already work for hands above them

broken ridge
#

If it triggers to-do list, it can tigger ox

lunar fossil

Neither does to do list

lunar fossil
#

yea so why are you talking about it 😭

#

this wouldn't trigger either of them

broken ridge

#

who knows

broken ridge
#

I thought if obelisk or to do list works then so does ox

broken ridge
lunar fossil
#

itd only trigger stuff with "contains"

broken ridge
#

So seance doesn't work

#

It's not necessarily meant to be "contains" like how the duo works on full houses. It works by counting the played hand as all hands weaker than it as well. So yes, if you play a flush, it would trigger a pair to do list task, even if no pair is present in the flush.

#

@lunar fossil i guess it does work.

mighty abyss
#

me doin flush five and seance with this when i see The Ox

#

wait does this interact with Eye/Mouth?

little tartan
#

If you were to play a flush 5, you would effectively just lose on the Eye I suppose lol

mighty abyss
#

if so, would it affect things like blue seal?

#

i assume not but theoretically

little tartan
#

Generally not directly. If your last hand you played was a flush, ya get Jupiter. It would be the exact same in that regard

mighty abyss
#

would this affect the number of times a given hand is played (e.g. Supernova)

little tartan
#

No. The physical tally of hands played in the run info tab would not get added onto. Whatever hand you play is played as itself. You don't actually play the other hands.

#

So the mouth is useless with this joker

mighty abyss
#

guess so

little tartan
#

Well it would pretty much just act normally, would it not?

mighty abyss
#

tbf the mouth just. is useless a lot of the time

#

now any hand above the first one is also the first one

#

and the first one is any hand below it

little tartan
#

Good point.

#

Well in that case, yes, it would basically be useless

#

...just like how it always is

mighty abyss
#

eye becomes Needle 2 then

golden leaf
#

The concept of hands being contained in other hands is only relevant for Jokers

#

it wouldn't make sense for something to trigger to-do list but not ox with a higher hand type

little tartan
#

That's fair. It'd be a bit more intuitive that way as well I feel

broken ridge
#

And pain if you don't get it on first hand

#

And if you have burglar it's extra painful. 7 hands of shame.

#

This and the “the x” jokers would be very good

#

Good idea and balancing

little tartan
#

Thanks

#

This is a cool concept and I like it very much

little tartan
#

Made some less than stellar art for it too. Probably gonna rework a few parts of the original suggestion for clarity too.

#

if i were to reword it, here's what i'd do:

Poker hands mentioned by name allow all higher hands as well

this removes the weird interactions with stuff like eye, mouth, card sharp, etc

untold isle
#

you’re just changing the concept then…

#

The point of the joker is to make lower card hands play

mighty abyss
#

it has the same effect

#

the idea is for, say, Flush to proc The Order

Flush "including" Straight or Straight "allowing" Flush give the same effect

little tartan
#

So, essentially, you're suggesting straight would proc the tribe as well?

#

Sry i may have misread

mighty abyss
#

no i'm saying flush would proc the order

#

since the order allows flush

#

keepin it simple (plus bonus reference)

little tartan
#

Yeah that was the rough reference haha, probably should've just stuck more true to it though
