Seltzer temporarily boosts played hands' effect by re-triggering each scored card. It lasts for a total of 10 hands and will disappear after the 10th hand is played and retriggered.
In a build with many enhanced cards, Seltzer can be a powerful joker, especially in the late game.
Due to Seltzer's limited lifespan, it is often used to get the highest scoring single hand possible in endless mode before your inevitable death.
Synergies[]
Decks[]
Seltzer requires lots of enhanced cards to work effectively, so the Zodiac Deck can utilize it's extra Tarot cards in shops to create more enhanced cards.
Red Deck is able to find better hands on average, so Seltzer will last longer, as less hands need to be played per round.
Black Deck is able to stack more Jokers that benefit from Seltzer's effect. Adding even a single X Mult Joker like Ancient Joker can be an extra X7.5 Mult normally, but with Seltzer it becomes an extra X57.
Plasma Deck loves to stack X Mult modifiers, which Seltzer enables very well.
Poker Hands[]
Any 5-card hands like Flush, Straight, or Full House will provide more retriggers from Seltzer. In particular, Flush Fives, with five of the same very strong duplicated card, work very well.
Jokers[]
Any Joker that provides X Mult from cards, like Bloodstone, The Idol, and Triboulet, are ideal to combine with Seltzer. Their X Mult triggering many more times makes them much more valuable and score much higher.
Jokers that add +Mult or Chips from cards, like Fibonacci and Scary Face, also work very well with Seltzer doubling their effects, though to a lesser degree than X Mult ones.
Jokers that scale based on cards played, like Lucky Cat and Hiker, work very well with Seltzer, as the cards they scale with will always retrigger (due to Seltzer's drawback being its limited uses), and the scaling will remain after Seltzer is consumed.
Vagabond, Cartomancer, and 8 Ball all provide frequent Tarot cards to buff up playing cards.
Throwback can allow you to skip blinds more often, making Seltzer usable more times in the more difficult Boss Blinds.
Glass cards are very useful with Seltzer, so Glass Joker can be a useful addition to pick up at the end of Seltzer's lifespan for after Seltzer is gone.
Certificate's Red Seals lend themselves well to the late-game endless runs Seltzer is often used on, and the Gold Seal effect can be retriggered.
If you have enough X Mult from cards Jokers, adding another retrigger Joker can be more valuable than adding another X Mult Joker. Blueprint and Brainstorm can also be used for this purpose, more flexibly even.
