Synergies[]

Decks[]

  • Abandoned Deck Abandoned Deck is the easiest Deck to scale Runner thanks to its lower amount of cards.
  • Erratic Deck Erratic Deck can make it difficult to use Runner as the randomized rank and suit makes it harder to form Straights.

Poker Hands[]

Jokers[]

  • Shortcut Shortcut allows Straights to be made with gaps in them, making it easier to get that hand
  • Four Fingers Four Fingers allows Straights to be scored with only four cards instead of the usual five, making it easier to get that hand

Trivia[]

  • This is the only Chip Joker that scales by playing a hand of a specific type; in this case, Straights (which can include Straight Flushes). Its counterpart, Spare Trousers Spare Trousers, scale its +Mult by playing hands that contain Two Pairs.
  • The runner's ID number, #345, is itself a (short) Straight.
