The Juggler gives +1 hand size when equipped, allowing the player to hold one more card in their hand. This makes it easier to search for poker hands that require five cards, and is a counter to Boss Blinds that reduce hand size.

Synergies[]

Decks[]

Juggler synergizes with all decks, as +1 hand size is always useful.

Poker Hands[]

Any strong 5 card hands can benefit from Juggler, as the increased hand size means higher chance to draw needed cards to form the hand. Juggler can also be good in High-card builds which rely on cards being in hand to score, such as with Steel cards.

Jokers[]

  • Baron Baron: gives X mult for kings held in hand.
  • Shoot the Moon Shoot the Moon: gives +13 mult for each queen held in hand.
  • Mime Mime: more cards held in hand means more cards for Mime to retrigger.
  • Troubadour Troubadour: +2 hand size, coupled with Juggler, will provide a whooping 11 cards in hand.

Trivia[]

  • During the first demo, Juggler provided +2 hand size with no penalty, making it very powerful. It was nerfed to only provide +1 hand size upon release, and the +2 hand size is given to Troubadour with a -1 hand per round penalty as a caveat.
