Flash Card permanently gains +2 Mult every time you reroll in the shop. The increase is not retroactive and will only start scaling after purchase, meaning it is always +0 Mult initially.

This Joker cannot receive the Perishable sticker.

Synergies[]

Decks[]

  • Decks that generate more money than usual are stronger with Flash Card, mainly Yellow Deck Yellow Deck and Green Deck Green Deck. Green Deck in particular is good with it early, as one can spend as much money on rerolls as they want without worrying about losing interest.
  • Zodiac Deck Zodiac Deck works well with Flash Card, as it will want to be rerolling more to see more Tarot and Planet cards.
  • Black Deck Black Deck is decent for Flash Card, as rerolling a lot allows you to see more Jokers that you can take.

Poker Hands[]

No poker hands inherently work better than others with Flash Card. All potential benefits come from other synergies.

Jokers[]

  • Economy Jokers are critical to Flash Card's success. Being able to get more money translates directly into more Mult. Particularly helpful are scaling Economy Jokers, like Cloud 9 Cloud 9 and Rocket Rocket, though most of them will work.
  • Campfire Campfire is very good with Flash Card, as the large amount of rerolls being performed and strong economy allows many cards to be sold, scaling Campfire very high.
  • Other Jokers that give X Mult are helpful, as they allow Flash Card's scaling to be more effective. Particularly, Constellation Constellation can scale very quickly, as every reroll can create a planet card.
