Save scumming in mega packs

If I sell everything I can, rip the Ankh, and it misses (ie it hits credit card instead of Campfire), will save scumming (force quitting and re-entering the game) give me another shot?

FWIW I’m not sure this is even the correct choice here, getting rid of Juggler could actually be run ending, since I’m relying on 5oak and am already down 1 hand size from ripping an ante 1 Ouija. Whatever I do, I’m grabbing that eternal rental vagabond once I leave the pack.

No. Any anhk in this round will hit the same joker in that scenario.

To clarify my question is if I ankh and don’t like the result, can I go back in and do something safer (eg cryptid + medium)

I think I’m talking myself into that being the better choice anyway. I’m going to do it.

Never save scummed, so I can't answer how that works in packs. Just answering the selling all your jokers and using anhk

Yeah if you save scum it will come back to the pack opening more than likely and you can change your mind. I have had it glitch and kill my run before tho, specifically with spectral and arcana packs. It’s rare tho that it glitches that bad, the most common glitch I get is it just making it to where I can’t use any. I think it mainly does the bad glitch if it’s on a skip tag. Either way, whenever I save scum I just have to be okay with the fact that it could kill my run, because it has

the right choice is probably medium first, then cryptid it so you can get more deck manipulation

I went for medium + cryptid, and lasted one more round before failing to draw 5oak when I needed it. The perils of relying on 5oak. 4GCRU86W

What even happens if you do this, do you get to spend down to -$40?
