This is one of the best buffon packs I ever got, and it was the very first one I opened that run… and at that point, neither of them did anything (since it’s abandoned deck). Blueprint was still appreciated but I thought it was a fun coincidence that technically, neither of these would help right after selecting.
Finished the run, was low stakes anyways but wanted to share the situation.
Any jokers you get at ante 1 are luxury and setup for the future. You don’t need any additional value to beat it 95% of the time (looking at you, black deck).
It’s crazy how bad early Blueprint can be. I hate getting an early Invisible and having it sitting there trying to taunt me into making bad decisions for 3 antes!
I think I paired it with a really basic joker (think greedy?) which makes for some good flushes early
