Anyone figured out what it means to get a gold sticker on a joker? One of the achievements requires getting a gold sticker on every joker.

beat the gold stake (difficulty) with that joker

I assume gold stake is the highest one

unless you actually have a bunch of hands boosted, or your central hand boosted really high, if you can't beat it in a single hand you may as well just hit New Run

Yeah, you can throw stone cards into any hand provided it's less than five cards. You can't, for example, do four diamonds and a stone for a flush, since a stone card is not a diamond card. Unless of course, you have Four Fingers.

What’s the use of the joker that turns face cards gold when played? Or does it need to be worked into a gold deck run

money

It also synergies with cards like Vampire (turns them back into regular cards for multiplier-multiplier, which can be turned back into gold, etc.) or the joker that makes all cards count as face cards (for more money). And probably even more that I'm forgetting

Do note that if you play less than five cards against the psychic, your hand is completely and totally disregarded, even if it was one card just to trigger DNA.

You know, I might be able to win yellow deck black stake with some of these builds i've been making if the game offered me a single multiplier-multiplier or polychrome tag. That would really be nice

hey......if you bought the reroll boss voucher and you have the money.....don't forget about it and then fail to reroll the exact boss that kills your entire run......

it was actually the psychic because it killed the "play 3 or less cards for +20 mult" which was critically important lmao

Pro tip for any newbies unaware: just like you can re-arrange your jokers to affect ordering, you can also do that with the cards in your hand before you play them. If you have cards that give multiplier thanks to your jokers (or holographic, mult enhance, etc.) you should make sure glass and polychrome cards (as well as any other card that will cause a multiplier-multiplier effect) are at the end on the right!

Order of operations is the scored cards (each triggering any relevant jokers left-to-right), then the cards left in your hand (each triggering any relevant jokers, etc.), then your general hand-related jokers, each left-to-right. (There are some exceptions or things that don't work the way you think they would, like Raised Fist.)

I was curious about the vampire interaction here. If I play 4 diamonds and a stone card I know is a diamond will vampire turn my high card into a flush?

So de-stoned cards will be scored even if they don't match but the hand played type won't change

did one of the recent updates remove the ability for negative joker tags to show up in Ante 1? I used to be able to get the negative joker tag right off the start if I started a new run enough times, but now it will not get pulled at all until later antes

I'm not sure when it was changed but negative tags do not show up in ante 1, yes.

So jokers that can delete themselves (either on random chance like Gros Michel or over time like Popcorn), are designed to be sold (Diet Cola, Invisible Joker), are render themselves useless after a specific point (Mr. Bones) cannot be eternal. There are two major exceptions: Egg and, amusingly enough, Luchador.

Since end bosses also show up on Ante 16 (and other multiples of 8), I imagine one would show up agai

EDIT: oh wait, it doesn't change the boss. I don't think it would then.

But wait, what if you take it at ante 8 then
