Profiting the most from To the Moon requires so much discipline, Whereas Egg only requires luck and patience, and you can always harvest it instead.

I guess I know that common cards can often be better than less common cards (e.g Shoot the Moon can be as useful as The Baron), but I felt this was worth commenting on.

On that note, how would you guys rank the different Economy Jokers?

For me, as follows:

S-Tier;

  • Rocket
  • Trading Card

A-Tier;

  • Egg
  • Rough Gem (This one seems so much more effective than you’d think it is, i guess it pushes me to pivot into flushes when you find it)
  • Mail-in Rebate (super effective)

B-Tier;

  • Business Card
  • To-Do list
  • Gift Card (with the sell-price mult joker it makes a beautiful, very fun, combo. Not many other synergies but that synergy is so good it gets B tier.)

C-Tier;

  • Golden Joker (End up keeping it a lot when i get one. A little extra pocket money goes a long way)
  • Satellite (Usually less effective than I’d expect.)
  • To the Moon (if i need to do hectic last-minute shopping before the Ante 8 boss, I’m getting rid of it anyway)

D-Tier;

  • Matador
  • Cloud Nine
  • Reserved Parking
  • Golden Ticket

F-Tier; (Hardest to trigger)

  • Delayed Gratification
  • Faceless Joker

    Egg is S tier because you can get crazy amounts of money if you get a temperance tarot card. To The Moon is a great scaling card though, once you start having good amounts of money (30+) it can quickly start going crazy.

      Yes actually, egg can go to S tier and trading card gets bumped down to A-tier. It makes more sense. I love egg, can’t resist buying it. Can however resist buying trading card.

      Well they’re not, but to me that makes egg more useful than shoot the moon since egg is needed to actually provide the momentum

      Also in practice you can usually onoy have 5 jokers, so for me that’s only 1 econ joker, 1 plus mult 1 times mult, 1 plus chips and 1 of something else
