Decks
Cavendish works well with any deck, as it is essentially a free x3 multiplier with no downside. Realistically, it will never destroy itself in a run.
Poker Hands
Any hand can benefit from Cavendish, although a stronger hand with a higher starting Mult base works better.
Jokers
- Blueprint and Brainstorm can copy Cavendish for an easy x9 multiplier, though the latter does not let your other Jokers add Mult first.
Oops! All 6s will double the chance of Cavendish breaking- from a 1 in 1000 to 2 in 1000 or 1 in 500. However, given how low this chance is, it's extraordinarily unlikely to affect the outcome.
Trivia
- The disease-resistant Cavendish banana cultivar makes up the vast majority of bananas consumed around the world. It was introduced after the previous cultivar, the Gros Michel, was devastated by a fungal pandemic in the 1960s. A similar disaster could occur to wipe out the Cavendish bananas, but more care and preventative measures are in place to stop this from reoccurring. This is represented by the Joker's powerful bonus, the highly unlikely chance of self-destruction, and the requirement for
Gros Michel to first go extinct. - The waves of energy radiating from the banana in Cavendish's art may be a reference to how bananas are very faintly radioactive.
