Showman, when equipped, allows duplicates of other Jokers, Planet Cards and Tarot to show up in the shop and Booster Packs. Normally, when players already have a particular Joker, Planet Cards or Tarot in their possessions, the shop will never have a duplicate, but with Showman equipped, this is now possible.

Synergies[]

Decks[]

Any deck can benefit from Showman, but the Black Deck Black Deck allows it to shine thanks to the +1 Joker Slot bonus.

Jokers[]

Showman doesn't directly benefit any other Joker. However, the main benefit of Showman is that it is one of the only way to get multiple copies of the same joker, such as Blueprint Blueprint, Brainstorm Brainstorm, Baron Baron, The Idol The Idol, etc. However, due to the rarity of these jokers, Showman is really only effective in runs that plan to go far into Endless mode.

Trivia[]

  • This Joker existed in the first playtest build, but was absent during the two public demos. However, numerous glitches that allow the same effect to be achieved were demonstrated during the time the demo was available, leading players to believe Showman was influenced by these glitches.
  • This Joker is referred to as "Ring Master" within the code. This is probably due to how the two words are often used interchangeably.
