Jokers
🃏 Lusty Joker also triggers when Hearts are scored.
🃏 Oops! All 6s is incredibly useful guaranteeing that this Jokers effect triggers. Because Bloodstone works so well with Oops! All 6s stacking other chance-based Jokers like Lucky Cat Business Card and Hallucination can be helpful to maximize the value of Oops! All 6s.
🃏 Retrigger Jokers are very useful as they make Bloodstones inconsistency matter less with more overall triggers.
🃏 Other X Mult from hand Jokers like The Idol and Triboulet are very helpful as they push Mult even higher combined with Bloodstones effect and other retrigger Jokers.
🃏 Smeared Joker allows both Diamonds and Hearts to trigger Bloodstone.
Trivia
