Jokers based on ancient myths and legends.

Ozymandias

Scored Kings become Holographic and Glass.

Achilles

X15 Mult. 1 in 20 chance to self-destruct after all scoring is finished.

Hercules

Secret hands increase this Joker's +Mult by 30 permanently (Currently: +0 Mult)

Persephone
Mythical Joker
Played cards return to the deck instead of being removed from play.

Sisyphus
Mythical Joker
Retrigger all played cards if 4 or less cards are scored.

Icarus
Mythical Joker
All played cards that don't have an enhancement become Lucky Cards. 1 in 8 chance to self-destruct when a Lucky card is scored.

Medusa
Mythical Joker
X[Ante] Mult when a Stone Card is scored. Number increases with each Ante.

Besides the method of obtaining being modded feeling, idk how to feel about a lot of the effects

#

The power range is all over the place

I get that chicot needs a buff, but selling legendaries is pretty niche, and it isn't even a guaranteed chance. It is what, 0.03% chance to get a soul, then 20% chance to get chicot and then 33% chance to even get a mythical and there are 7 of them. There is only one chicot and 7 joker potentially obtainable by chicot.

Medusa and ozymandias seem under powered

#

Also love how thematic the abilities are,

These would be pretty cool with a more realistic condition for obtaining them. Like, say there was a deck where these could appear in the shop or something. Perhaps they get added to the legendary pool. Seems good for a mod more than vanilla though.

# lunar girder Jokers based on ancient myths and legends. Ozymandias Mythical Joker Scored Ki...

First I will say, these are all really cool, I love myths, and balatro.

but if you want some feedback:

I think it's way too conditional to have these only appear once a legendary is destroyed, as that legendary is garenteed, the chance of the mythical wouldn't be. $20 is a good base price.

Sisyphus is too unconditionally good, I would almost always pick it if I could. Persephone would be strong even without the +3 handsize, so I feel like that's a bit extra. x20 mult for Achilles is absolutely insane, as you could easily get that multiplier to ungodly levels with brainstorm and blueprint, lowering the multiplier or increasing the chance of destruction would be a way to solve that.

I don't really know how good or bad cards like heracles or Medusa would be without actually playing them.

I like the powerlevels of the rest.

on an unrelated note, maybe Achilles could have something to do with spades, like a risk / reward based thing with them?

I think they should be available just like legendaries, through a designated spectral card.
Like, call it "The Myth" and it's a floating ancient looking book floating over a card (like The Soul has a crystal floating over the card)

#

But those ideas could use some work still

#

Like, those should be very valuable. But just a chonky +Mult Joker is not it. (like Hercules)

#

Like, Medusa could turn face cards into Stone Cards and get xMult everytime she does. That would be fun

#

i think mythical should be a tier that sits alongside legendary

#

and not higher or lower

#

and definitely not needing a legendary sacrifice

#

besides that i like all of the effects although some numbers could tweaked

#

hm

#

ok here's an idea

The Myth
Spectral Card
1 in 2 chance to obtain [Mythical Joker]. Changes each Ante.

#

why 1 in 2?

# vague igloo why 1 in 2?

well, in the case of the soul, you dont know what you're going to get. but with the myth, you are told what you're going to get before you even buy the myth.

vague igloo
#

but why?
Just make it behave like The Soul, just "create a Mythical Joker (must have room)"

lunar girder
#

because i dont want it to be a clone

vague igloo
#

that's fair, but the great thing about the Soul is that you don't have to pay 20$ for a possibly run-saving joker

#

Having expensive Jokers in the Shop after selling a Legendary is kinda "winmore", which is not great game design

#

if you wanna go unique, maybe have it be a skip-tag "Next shop will have a free Mythical Joker" and that tag may be just very rare itself

#

well, that's also quite costly, maybe it's like a spectral skip, you get to open a pack and choose from 2 Mythical Jokers
The ability to choose should offset the price of not playing a blind and seeing a shop

#

Hm, idk if I like that. Because the Rare tag is rarely worth it anyways (talking high stake runs)

fair nexus
#

But I do ser the point

#

Even if it would be cool for a tag to reveal itself
