What's your favourite deck and why? (lemmy.zip)

Mine is Abandoned Deck because I like playing with numbered cards and feel like face cards get hosed too often

Plasma Deck. Not necessarily because it's the easiest but just because it's the only deck that completely changes how you play. I love the idea of having to maximize chips and I often use jokers I usually wouldn't before.

Not sure how it works. Does it just average out your chips and mult scores?

[–] simple@lemm.ee 7 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It "balances" your score so that chips and mult will be equal. If you have 40 chips and 10 mult, add them together and divide by two. Now you have 25 chips and 25 mult.

Since chips are easier to get than mults, you get more mult than usual? Is it the idea?

[–] simple@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

Yeah, it lets you prioritize chips and ignore mult cards

Gotcha, thanks!
