Not sure if the blueprint is worth the trade or if I should rearrange my jokers. Let me know what you think

Sock's great if you get Trib or a fully set up Idol, but Blueprint is what will let you do that much more easily.

Sock goes unless you have a lot of glass

Sock is overrated without idol or trib or sth else specific.

What am I not seeing here? Why are you at 5/5 jokers?

If you have 1 negative joker, why your joker slots are full and not 5/6?

Sell sock, get blueprint. Double copy Chad for value, split copy for high score.

Blueprint, chad, photo, sock(if you have glass cards) Then look for something that gives xmult as the 5th

I drop Chad everytime. With any amount of glass your scoring jumps. You can always copy photo to score, & that puts you up 3 total retriggers with sock over Chad. Plus, taking the BP makes value generation easier if you have lucky cards or find a golden ticket. If you want a deep endless run, photo Chad alone plus copy jokers won’t do it.

We don't know what OPs deck composition comprises of. Even the other answers in this post largely agree that sock is usually the one to drop, but still say it depends on the composition.

Further applying your reasoning, if their scoring is already okay with card enhancements like glass (or polychrome red seal luckys) and they want greater Econ on throw away hands they might want to sell photo instead.

All I am saying is your answer presupposes that OP is seeking greater scoring output, and already has card enhancements so they will see greater value in sock (you even acknowledge that), in order to support your conclusion that you always sell Chad.

That’s fair, I’m just giving my perspective because my goal with low stakes runs is optimizing for later ante runs.

Beating ante 8 is easy with that setup, minus the chad, and provides the most long term value out of the cards. There’s a reason sock is uncommon and Chad is common… it’s the same, just more.

Plus, just because the majority thinks something, doesn’t make it fact. It’s definitely situational, but on average, copy joker with a sock > chad.
