This is an idea about what Lumpy Touch’s card art that was called Chaos Theory that never made it into the game could have done. Every round, select a random hand type (does not include the secret types until played). If this hand type is played, gain a random amount of add mult and multiplicative mult, between 20 and 40 for add, and between 3 and 7 for multiplicative. also, upgrade said poker hand

i'm not sure if this is scaling but even if it's not it's insane
Can someone explain. I'm lost
the joker selects a random hand
if you play that randomly selected hand, you get a random amount off add mult and multiplicative mult
20-40 for add
and 3-7 for multiplicative
also you upgrade the played hand if it was the selected one
That's to-do list if it was a legendary
Also is add mult +mult. It makes sense.
But my illiterate ass got confused
I have no doubts (neither confirmation) that one of Localthunk requirements when creating Jokers was that that they need to be understood with a maximum of 4 Balatro in game text lines
And also 1 effect
Barring scaling and downsides, both of which seem to get a pass if not too conplex
Well js downsides tbh
Sorry. 1 unique effect
That’s extremely busted
Firstly, if picked your most played hand, chances are you’ll have many upg’s
Secondly, even if it was on the lower end with 0 upg’s, and at 1 mult only for your most played hand, that’s still +20 * 3 = 60 mult!
