MODERATORS
High card isnt really a build by itself. Its more accurate to call it the joker build where 99% of your score comes from your jokers. The end game you aim to hit is (1) chip joker (ideally scaling) (1) +mult joker (ideally scaling) and (3) xmult jokers.
Then it does not matter what hand you make which is why this is called a high card build because you can just play high card. However you can also play pairs or two pairs. It does not matter.
An example of a finished joker build is:
By ante 8, even assuming level 1 high card you will score 100k with a single high card, enough to clear ante 8 gold stake. And this joker setup isnt even considered that good. (Eg. Ramen is only 2x and there are better chip jokers than blue joker).
The reason why this build is popular is because its extremely consistent and also because you will be immune to most boss effects. RNG is never an issue because you can never miss your draw.
