8 Ball is a Common Effect Joker that has a 1 in 4 chance to generate a Tarot card whenever an 8 is scored.
Synergies[]
Decks[]
Abandoned Deck works best with 8 Ball as the smaller deck size allows for 8s to be played easier.- Ghost Deck and Zodiac Deck can potentially benefit from 8 Ball thanks to Spectral and Tarot Cards that allows more 8s to be created.
- Erratic Deck can benefit from 8 Ball if it's randomized to have lots of 8s.
Poker Hands[]
- Pair or Three of a Kind of 8s is good to start.
- Five of a Kind or Flush Five works well once you have a lot of 8s.
Jokers[]
- DNA: Can be used to generate more 8s every blind.
- Oops! All 6s: Can be used to increase the chance of a Tarot card spawning.
- Blueprint and Brainstorm: Can be used to copy 8 Ball to spawn more Tarot Cards.
Trivia[]
- The visual design of this card is based on the Magic 8 Ball, which itself is based on the 8 ball used in pool or billiards. The users holds the ball with the 8 facing them, and asks the Magic 8 ball a question. They then turn it over, and one of 20 answers (usually a variation on yes, no, or maybe) will appear in a window on the back of the ball.
