Tarot Cards:
The Lovers & The Tower - Enhances 2 cards
wild cards and stone cards aren't strong enough like steel/glass cards to justify only getting one imo
Planet Cards:
Pluto & Mercury - +1 Mult is only applied every other level, and +5 and +10 Chips respectively (-5 from their base boost)
Earth - +2 Mult and +30 Chips
Planet X - +3 Mult and +40 Chips
Spectral Cards:
Ouija - Instead of -1 hand size, -1 to all hand levels.
Ectoplasm - No longer increases the hand size penalty per use.
Immolate - Instead of 5 cards and 20$, 5 cards and 15$
Ankh - Remove the destroy all other jokers clause and instead make the copy Perishable
Hex - Remove the destroy all other jokers clause and instead apply Rental
Black Hole - Make it +2 to all hand levels, it's good but doesn't feel good enough for being as rare as Soul
Jokers:
Sinful Suit Jokers - +5 Mult per
Reserved Parking - 2$ instead of 1$
Hanging Chad - Uncommon instead of Common
Hologram - Rare instead of Uncommon
Hit the Road - Uncommon instead of Rare
Skip Tags:
Boss Tag - Nullifies the Boss Blind
Buffoon Tag - Gives 2 Large Buffoon Packs
Charm Tag - Gives 2 Large Arcana Packs
Coupon Tag - Also affects Vouchers
Ethereal Tag - Gives a Mega Spectral Pack
Edition / Rarity Tags - Joker is guaranteed to not have any Stickers
Garbage Tag - 2$ per discard
Juggle Tag - Applies for the whole Ante
Meteor Tag - Gives 2 Large Celestial Packs
Orbital Tag - Weighted to be more likely to be a frequently played hand
Speed Tag - 7$ instead of 5$
Standard Tag - Gives 2 Mega Standard Packs
Top-up Tag - Jokers can be Common or Uncommon
Stakes:
Mini Stake - Boss Blinds are replaced with Bigger Blinds
Blue Stake - +1 Win Ante

some of these ideas certainly suck but i'm curious what people would think
tldr: various minor changes and i made a lot of tags better

what is mini stake

#

pluto doesnt really need the debuff especally since it complicates it

#

its the jokers that make pairs and HC good

#

anke and hex feel alot worse here now too

Some thoughts:

  • while on paper the HC and Pair rework is okay, idk how you’d convey it to be intuitive to the player. Also I think only mult OR chips should be nerfed and not both
  • not a fan of ecto rework; the scaling penalty is there to avoid cheese (ex: ecto + troub)
  • ankh rework butchers its use cases
  • same with hex, instantly nukes ghost deck (no longer is able to make a bad joker workable as rental is punishing early game)
  • most commons are balanced around +15 mult so sinfuls to +25 w/o retriggers while half is +20 is overkill
  • reserved should stay at $1 as it’s easier to farm money with compared to business card
  • chad in the gutter; I strongly am against nerfing Chad because letting players have fun over perfect balance is a big part of game design I believe in
  • HTR could use a scaling buff rather than a rarity change imo
  • buffoon and charm and meteor tag reworks would be way overtuned with double tags
  • top up rework is nice though unnecessary given how good it already is on high stakes

preserved parking is already one of the best money makers

Anything I didn’t comment on is fine enough but

#

Yeah I have a lot of thoughts

undone moat
#

same thing here

true, sorry

All good!! Just smth for next time

undone moat
#

And some are good (i kinda like blue stake rework a lot ( besides the fact that it means finishers are on every 9)

#

And black hole i whole heartedly agree with

brisk mountain
#

i think blue rework is good, but make it +2 win ante and keep finishers at every 8 antes

glad kestrel
#

no +2 win ante is way too much that's 11x ante 8
ante 9 is still hard but it's a lot more reasonable at only 2.3x ante 8

worthy kiln
#

reserved parking buff is too strong imo

The Ouija buff is peak
