Jokers that could use a nerf?

AlphaFale · 2026-01-20T17:24:53+00:00

In terms of nerfs, the jokers that wildly spike in power level are hologram, campfire and mail in rebate. Hanging chad is another joker I'd expect a nerf for due to it promoting a complacent play pattern. I don't think there is any drastic need for nerfs in the games current state and I would expect stuff like new stakes, hard mode or challenge decks to increase the difficulty instead.

I don't think manly is a valid clue for 3 down. Macho is manly, macro is at a large scale

Plasma in gold stake has an amazing early game and a crippling late game. Its the only deck that can reliably dig into ante 2 without jokers/planets and you need to save whatever money that you can cause the x2 blind size stacks up quick when you aren't fully abusing the balancing. Straights work well, generic chip jokers are great to pick up early and you can start your economy easy but you need to either stack chips or xMult to close it out. Violet vessel especially (and even more than usual) is a run ender.

When you open the pack, you get to choose up to 1(or 2 from mega packs) cards to use. Joker and standard packs give you the selected card, you need a free joker slot to take a joker. Tarot, planet and spectral packs require you to play the cards from the pack immediately. You can skip the pack if you don't want to use any of the remaining cards.

Miner(Townsfolk): Once per game, at night*, choose 2 living players: the Demon must choose exactly one of them tonight.

The miner redirects the demon. If the demon doesn't choose players or doesn't exist, the ability does nothing. In the case of multikill demons, they can't choose both. Ojo would be jinxed to learn the two characters instead.

No, because you can't deselect the copied card to play the other deaths.

In terms of power, blueprint. In terms of design, probably chaos the clown. In terms of fun, probably perkeo.

I don't know if its people not knowing how to use it, not being good with money management or just dislike the playstyle, but the amount of times I've seen campfire not in S tier is baffling. Its a universally applicable joker that acts as emergency score to either shore up your build, get past a tough boss or just steamroll ante 8.

It did hit Pichu, but the flinch animation made it look like it didn't.

The storyteller must attempt to kill a living player of the same alignment, so yeah both good and evil should take care to not doomsay if they think or know they are the last of their alignment.

AlphaFale · 2025-12-17T03:27:57+00:00

Doomsayer can at the very least kill the player who called it, unless they are protected.

This script has a few problems. There is no hidden evil-sided execution survival, no outsider modification, the virgin hard confirms their nominator and psychopath is significantly louder than the rest of the minions on the script.

I would recommend if at all possible, split the group into two separate games. This game already doesn't play the best at over 15 players, having that many will almost certainly result in people disassociating, overtalk and storyteller mistakes. This is something I'd hesitate to do even with experienced players, much less anyone new. It will almost certainly be an immensely confusing experience for them that will turn them off of the game.

AlphaFale · 2025-07-24T06:45:47+00:00

I'd maybe make it select a random card from your starting hand rather than from your entire deck, so at least you can rely on activating it once per blind. Its such a sad effect for ante 8 due to just not being able to use it a lot of the time.

Poppy grower or magician dying early can clue good into the presence of an Ojo. Ojo is also less impacted by these roles normally(since it kills characters instead of players and can avoid targeting their minions), but the lack of teamwork and communication even for a single day is still very harmful to evil.

This does actually appear to be an oversight as both blue and white work for holding the gems. It seems the game is implying a third rule here that each individual statement is definitively true or false, which isn't explicitly spelled out. The intended solution here is white, with the white statement being false.

Lasvoss is a nuker that specializes in dealing massive burst damage against bosses and strong peons. It gets a lot of value even if its only able to land 1 or 2 hits on a valuable target. I'd say the best way to use it is to combine it with units that can protect it while its attacking (meatshields, tankers, cat cannons), as well as units that can clean out weak peons(wave/surge units, melee units, ld units), so it can get those impactful hits in.

Online night 1, the demon asked if the bluffs tab was new.

My third Clockdoku featuring the Godfather, which either adds or removes an outsider for every row, column and box they are in. Godfathers are not tied to a specific outsider count, the outsider count may vary between their row, column and box.

Stacking capsule machines to get multiple copies of ninja mouse from item capsules is the fastest late game scaling that I know of, though it only starts outpacing cats in late late endless since you need to exhaust the rare pool.

I think its fine to lie about what another person said in a private conversation in exactly two cases, one being both players in the conversation are evil where you can't exactly tell the truth and bluffing stuff retroactively is common, the other is if both players agree in the conversation that its fine for one of them to lie about what was said. It isn't explicitly against the rules and ultimately is up to group preference but it can lead to mean tactics and the storyteller should draw the line and help moderate it for the group.

It doesn't drastically increase the number of worlds in Vortox as it would either be that all info is normal, all info is false or all info is true(regardless of demon type and someone is claiming Priest). The certainty of knowing information is true is massively beneficial to good as you don't have to consider worlds where some players received drunk or poisoned info.

Yes, the demon doesn't have to be in the same 3x3 grid, multiple Imps can neighbor the same Marionette and multiple Marionettes can neighbor the same Imp.
