Brainstorm is a very powerful joker that copies the effect of the leftmost Joker you have. Unlike Blueprint moving Brainstorm around will not change what it copies only when it does so. To change the Joker that is being copied a different Joker will need to be moved to the leftmost position. There are some jokers that cannot be copied and putting Brainstorm itself in the leftmost position will cause it to do nothing. Brainstorms compatibility with other Jokers can be seen in its tooltip.

Brainstorm will not copy the following effects:

Best Decks

Works well with any deck. Brainstorm is best used to copy a card that adds multiplier or chips. Getting a second Brainstorm through the Ankh Spectral card the Invisible Joker or Showman will allow you to copy the same card multiple times.

Poker Hands

This joker does not directly synergize with any hand.

Recommended Jokers

  • 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.
  • It is impossible to copy Brainstorm with another Brainstorm unlike Blueprint.
  • The card art depicts a back of the napkin sketch a rough calculation or idea quickly sketched out during a conversation at a bar or restaurant which could be seen as the conception of the Joker being copied. This also reflects its limitations compared to the more versatile Blueprint which depicts a more deliberate and detailed technical drawing.
  • This is the only Joker that has a 90 degree corner (top left) in its card art as all other jokers have a rounded radius in all their corners.
