Staircase (Rare)

[tidal bison]

This joker gains 0.25x Mult when a 2 is destroyed
Rank increases by 1 upon activation

(if this is too slow the xmult can be increased a bit)

[ionic plume]

hmm

being rewarded for playing the game

but i guess going after a specific rank is annoying

although 1 hangman only gives 0.25 so hyperfocusing on this joker wouldn't be ideal, wasting half of a handman value

because then you would be destorying potential scaling cards

i like it though

[warped elm]

Targets things like idol or ancient?

[ionic plume]

Last line, "rank increases upon activation"

[tidal bison]

the rank should just start at 2 or maybe the lowest card in your deck

[ionic plume]

I assume, as it's called stair case, it would increase by one

[tidal bison]

yes

[ionic plume]

Can balala players read?

[tidal bison]

also i think it should be able to scale 0.5x if you manage to destroy multiple consecutive ranks (like both 2 and 3)

i dont actually know if this is how it works but i think that if hangman goes from left to right you should be able to scale twice by putting the 2 on the left

[ionic plume]

Would it matter the order of cards I'm hand

[ionic plume]

Yea that's what I was thinking

[dire ginkgo]

I feel like it’s a bit awkward seeing how hologram is an uncommon and scales much easier

But I love the idea

investing in the idea

[tidal bison]

the mult can be bumped up a little

[proper drum]

This could be buffed maybe to 0.5

[unreal nexus]

maybe 0.75 since it's the number glass joker uses

[neon axle]

Okay that's approaching canio territory

[vestal shadow]

But hologram makes your deck bad

[neon axle]

But hologram, just scales fast. Compared to other stuff it's easy and quick to scale

[dire ginkgo]

It really doesn’t if you use it responsibly

Also in the current pair meta, adding random bs for it isn’t a problem

[unreal nexus]

it's harder to scale overall

canio allows any of 3 ranks and scales twice with a hanged man

[cinder dagger]

Couldn't you trigger this twice with a Hanged Man? I.e destroy a 2 and a 3

In that order specifically

Or would we consider destruction one phase that it can't interrupt to scale

[slim slate]

what if instead of a 2 being a random card and it switches every time you destroy the required card

[dire ginkgo]

That’s what it does, it increases every time

[unreal nexus]

i was assuming it counts as 1 phase

[tidal bison]

i don't know how it actually works internally but i designed this with the idea that you can destroy two consecutive ranks and have it scale twice

that's why im hesitant to give it more mult

[unreal nexus]

.5 might be better then

[ionic plume]

i think its fine as is as you destroy cards and get a lot of mult

if you only destroy 8 required cards, thats x3 mult

and this doesn't need to be x3 right away

it scales with your build

16 hangedmans might be hard but you can use glass as scoring and to scale this
