A megathread of Enhancements and associated Tarot cards. New Tarot cards were just made up by me and aren't based on any real Tarot cards.

#

Executioner:

Enhances up to 2 cards into Silvered cards
Silvered:
+Mult equal to base chip score when played during a Boss Blind

#

The Bell:

Enhances up to 3 cards into Lead cards
Lead:
Card guaranteed to be at the bottom of the deck

#

Storm:

Enhances up to 3 cards into Charged cards
Charged:
+120 Chips, enhancement lost when scored.

#

The Bandwagon:

Enhances 1 card into a Mutagenic Card
Mutagenic:
Copies the rank of the card to its left when rearranged or played. Scores no chips

#

Birth:

Select 2 cards. Makes 2 cards with the suit of the left card and the rank of the right card

ok

#

Yep

#

Well, not foil

lilac wigeon
#

that seems a smidge arbitrary

analog valley
#

Editions are a little too different

lilac wigeon
#

How so if I may ask

#

It still is chips when the card scores

#

That just seems like a slightly inconsistent change

analog valley
#

It counts separately to base chips and enhancements

lilac wigeon
#

Maybe make that a bit more explicit then, say base chip score there?

#

anyway I like most of these

#

very cool

analog valley
#

could Bandwagon be improved?

lilac wigeon
#

eh idk how I feel about that effect as an enhancement; an idea I've seen thrown around is adding that same effect onto wild cards as a joker effect which I think works a smidge better

#

that's just my personal two cents though

tawny sparrow
#

and during all blinds, not just bosses

#

it would be too strong for an enhancement though so maybe a legendary joker

restive pulsar
#

Probably charged cards could charge themselves again after 10 hands or smthing like that

#

I like the idea of lead card

analog valley
#

Every 10 hands is a little long of a recharge rate

#

Way, way long ago I had some Jokers that worked with the Charged enhancement that were all electricity themed

#

Some had the premise of making more cards Charged and if they regenerated that would get a little too powerfu

Minstrel

Enhance 1 card into a Cheer Card
Cheer:
Retriggers the card to its right. Scores no chips

#

Pact

Enhances 2 cards into Tethered Cards
Tethered:
When card is drawn, other tethered card will be drawn with it, regardless of hand size
-# (Tethered to: [Other Card])

#

Most of these just sound fun to have in the game, I like cheer cards

#

I'm nopeing on the basis of not wanting new tarots as it throws away the theming of tarots

frank minnow
#

Yeah it'd have to be something else

dusky lantern
#

suppose we add all these to the game.
Imagine how hard it would be to find Death, Fool, Hermit or Temperance

#

some of these effects might be better suited for joker ideas

#

and others are just gimmicky imho

frank minnow
#

I feel like eventually we are going to get another consumable variant

lilac wigeon
stoic robin
#

sure but thats not what this is suggesting

lilac wigeon
#

True I suppose

#

Though the actual effects can always just be shuffled around onto an appropriate inverse tarot

analog valley
#

There are inverse Tarot?

stoic robin
#

Reversed Tarot Cards

#

Tarot cards have different meanings when drawn upside down

analog valley
#

Yeah, methinks that might be a little more off than just making up a fistful of new ones

#

I think some creative liberties can be taken on the authenticity of the Tarot cards given this game also features poker hands that get you shot at professional tables

stoic robin
#

Eh, I think it's better suited to just make a new type
