Just finished a black stake level run, the difficulty is still pretty reasonable and hasn't gotten too crazy yet. Honestly feel like the big speedbumps at this point are ante 2/3, and by like ante 5 I usually have a deck that can break 100k which is enough to beat a run, usually.

The blueprint joker is so badass. Had a run where I was bouncing it between three other jokers to endlessly upgrade my flushes, generate tarots, and score huge multiplier combos.

Then I lost in endless because I'm an idiot and played a high card on a "play only one hand type" boss

got the goldmember infinite money combo (all played face cards become gold cards + all cards are considered face cards + gold cards grant $3 when scored). the joker that saves you from dying works on the last boss and counts as a win. kind of cheap but that's green stakes down

Fungah!

the boss blind disabled a joker that would have given a 3x multiplier, preventing number from being even bigger :negative:

Having 9x on Bus and Fortune Teller is amazing, especially coming off a deck full of enhanced four of a kinds.


Took forever for that run to come together, don't think it actually started taking off until endless. Had a hologram but standard boosters and the playing card voucher refused to show up, so it was the obvious Verdant Leaf sacrifice.

Almost every time I’ve won it’s been with the voucher that sends you back an ante and lets you farm longer. That thing is so good.

They really should swap the red and green stake challenges. Bigger blinds isn't as big of a difficulty spike as losing $3 on the first blind.
