Synergies
You want to aim for the highest raw number boosts to Chips and Mult. Since the raw numbers for adding Mult and Chips are usually higher for boosting Chips (e.g. +31 chips vs +4 Mult) focusing on boosting Chips will have a larger immediate impact.
Mult multipliers such as Polychrome editions can be slow to have impact but can reach much higher totals since they grow by multiplication and not addition. In this example you would need a +5000 Chip to match the power of adding a Polychrome.
In a normal deck focusing on only xMult leads to a non-optimal distribution which is fixed with the Plasma deck and can result in much higher final scores with identical builds and the same hand.
