🃏 When stacked with Brainstorm or another Blueprint each will add one more copy of the copied effect. When combining Blueprint with Brainstorm Blueprint can be placed to the left of Brainstorm or to the left of the leftmost Joker (to be copied) depending on the desired order of Joker activation.

🃏 As a rule of thumb copying a Joker with X Mult or retrigger is usually better than copying +Chips or +Mult. The optimal placement for maximum score can be difficult to determine so consider all possible options.

🃏 Copying a Joker that earns $money or creates cards (especially Tarot) is a great option when boosting score is not necessary.

🃏 A few Jokers have both trigger effects which Blueprint can copy and passive ones it cannot. Stuntman for example gives +250 Chips a trigger effect and -2 Hand Size a passive effect. Therefore Blueprint copies the +250 Chips but not the -2 Hand Size

🃏 Moving Blueprint often can maximize its potential by always copying the most important Joker for the next action you take. For example one round could involve copying Perkeo before exiting the shop Cartomancer before starting the Blind Burnt Joker before the first discard Business Card before playing face cards and Acrobat before playing the final hand.

📚 When copying chance-based Jokers like Space Joker the chance is rolled independently for each copy of that joker. This means if one Joker triggers the copies arent guaranteed to trigger at the same time.

📚 The card art depicts a deliberate and detailed technical drawing. This is in contrast with the rough back of the napkin sketching of Brainstorm.

📚 The Joker in the art is looking to its right at the Joker it is copying.

📚 Once a Poker hand is played Blueprint will continue copying the last Joker to its right even if its moved around afterward. This can be exploited by first playing the winning hand then move Blueprint to copy end-of-round effect Joker such as Reserve Parking Mime.. while scoring is calculated. Once the hand finished scoring Blueprint will immediately copy end-of-round effect Joker providing double bonus without having to sacrifice scoring potential. The same technique can be applied to Brainstorm as well.
