Brainstorm is very counterintuitive though. If I hadn’t seen it on my title screen saying I needed to discard a royal flush, I wouldn’t have got it. After all, who discards a royal flush?

Just had my best round ever with Perkeo and the voucher that gives 1.5x for each planet card. I had over 30 straight planets and got my first "e" scores! I am playing on mobile and something about drawing all of the negative planet cards really started chugging the graphics though.

After all, who discards a royal flush? You never looked at your collection and checked the unlock requirements for all of the jokers you didn’t have? Edit: I discarded a Royal Flush during the first gold chip run I won, that’s how well I was doing that run lol it was the Ghost Deck Blackbelt Bobman fucked around with this message at 03:49 on Feb 6, 2025 |

Blackbelt Bobman posted:You never looked at your collection and checked the unlock requirements for all of the jokers you didn’t have? Yeah, but there were so many that they just sort of glazed over. If there was a way to filter to 'show only locked jokers' that would work.

I'm so close I can taste it, just Flower Pot and Luchador to get Completion++

Slowing picking away at Completionist++. I just had a run where I was going into the final boss ante with a Judgement tarot sitting around, with the only potentially sellable joker being Cavendish. Had the idea that I could sell Cavendish and use Judgement if I get so close to winning that I could clear in the next hand without Cavendish, and sure enough, it paid off. Popped Judgement, and it gave me Invisible Joker. Christ. It feels really good to get a free gold sticker on that one.

Is there a specific meaning to when the chips/mult counters are on fire? I know it means you’re at pretty high numbers for your ante or whatever, but does it actually convey any usable information?

The fire means the hand you've currently played scores high enough to completely one-shot the blind on its own.

Oh interesting, I thought it might be something like that. And I assume that’s before any RNG stuff is even rolled?

The instant the score calculation crosses the threshold, it catches on fire, which intensifies as the score goes up

Color Printer posted:The instant the score calculation crosses the threshold, it catches on fire, which intensifies as the score goes up Yeah, if it catches fire before you even play your hand, it means whatever hand you're about to play can one-shot the current blind with the base hand score alone, no card scoring or jokers required.

Gotcha. Allow me to explain what prompted me to ask this question: I just unlocked the anaglyph deck and started my first run with it. First ante I find smeared joker. First blind of ante 2, the tag is "level your flush by 3". So with the free double tag, I'm already at level 7 flush, and finding the flushes with minimal effort. I went through ante 2 and 3 without even any other source of chips or mult and was still getting the flames every time I prepared the first hand, just off the leveling alone. It got me curious, cause usually I only see the flames when I've got a bunch of modifiers and jokers waiting to be calculated, I guess I've just never been this over leveled.

Allow me to explain what prompted me to ask this question: How it's going: ![]() This has turned out to be my best run ever. Flush is now level 30. Many of my face cards are glass. Hanging chad + photograph is insanely busted. My highest hand was over 70 million chips, and that was without the blackboard. I can pretty consistently get it so I play a red flush while holding black cards, it mostly just comes down to how lucky I get with the bloodstone... Hopefully I can break 100 million with this one.

Lmao I keep forgetting that Card Sharp is per *round*, and not per *ante*.

SmallpoxJenkins posted:Lmao I keep forgetting that Card Sharp is per *round*, and not per *ante*. the worst is when you have some other joker that you want to play a single card or something for scaling and then you stumble upon a really good hand and play it without thinking and all of a sudden you’re on your last hand and you realize that you haven’t played your main hand type yet and your card sharp is totally powerless to help you

Just got 215 mil, hell yeah!!! Just realizing those are almost ante 12 numbers... still not consistent enough though. We'll see what happens

Just got the 100M and jokerless done in one afternoon, both with telescope, it just solves so many problems For the 100M, Yorick, Brainstorm, and then just boosting flush up forever with a bunch of steel and other polychrome jokers, it was pretty sweet, never even ended up using the card sharp. Given that I'm done with the deck golds, I think it's just the long path towards completionist++ left! Fabulous game, if I stop here I'll feel very much like I got tons of fun out of it.

LocalThunk dropped a few tidbits during an interview with Bloomberg of all places, about the "1.1" Gameplay Update coming sometime this year: There will be new Jokers and other features he's not talking about yet, Matador will be overhauled to be less confusing, and he intends on changing Blue Stake in some way.

And after 233 hours, you can add me to the sacred halls of Completionist++. Just got a ridiculous run with constantly retriggering polychrome queens that also allowed me to carry (and find!) my final 2 jokers.![]() E: just for fun I've carried the run on and I've just hit a new high score. On my very final run for C++. Perfect. mfcrocker fucked around with this message at 03:33 on Feb 8, 2025 |

Lots of people hitting C++ this week! Since I just finished it, I'm now aiming to see how long of a winning streak I can get on white stake, with my Completionist++ run as the first win of that streak. On my latest run, I cleared every single blind with one hand - no skips, 24 hands played at the end of ante 8. It was simply Spare Trousers (gains +2 mult if played hand contains a Two Pair) and Joker Stencil (x1 mult for every empty joker slot, including itself). I'm wondering why it says I made 2 new discoveries, since I've already completed everything possible. Maybe this was my first time clearing white stake with those two jokers?![]()
