On a side note, when you ever see deck chipped like this in real life, get the fuck out of the game since they 100% cheat.

I mean, Balatro's description does say that it's illegal poker.

Ehh, it's not great but x1.5 mult is still pretty good, even if the actual Joker is useless. Plus if you find something better it should have a decent sell value.

Polychrome is always good and IIRC you can still get face cards from the standard packs or buy them with the Magic Trick voucher.

Honestly polychrome is much better than +30 chips for face cards.

Every build needs +mult, +chips, and x-mult, so having both in one card is actually great despite one being a kinda weak one.

Jokers gonna joke

the free [x] joker tags are total bait and always bad (except start of game foil/holo, which is sometimes good)

At least it wasn't an eternal.

Open the Mega Buffoon pack there, you might find Pareidolia and suddenly the entire deck is face cards

Gamble it all on face cards

Encounter the boss blind that debuffs face cards

Curse Jimbo and start again

The thing about those tags (foil,holo,poly) is that they give a guaranteed (50c,10m,1.5x) (not on orange/gold stake)

The accompanying joker does nothing most of the time as most jokers are very specific, but getting 50c or 10m early can be very powerful

Install thought of smoking DMT whenever I see Jesters or clowns.

(RedWizard would fail to respond to any attempts at contact until a welfare check the next Sunday, where he was found inserting large amounts of Gros Michel banana peels into his kitchen sink’s garbage disposal.)

This why you never take the free card tag
