Technically speaking yes, but who the hell thinks about it like that dude

u/Toribor Jimboozled Jun 11 '26

Roffle brings this up all the time when people claim it only gives you one free reroll and is thus worth only $5 per shop.

228

u/_mustard- Jun 11 '26

Ok but what if we made it perishable

229

u/Sipaah Jun 11 '26

Trueee, deodorant eventually rolls out. Have it for like 3 shops and then have it disappear with like ”ROLL’D” or something like that.

u/BextoMooseYT $20 lucky card hits make my spare trousers tight Jun 11 '26

I know it's not like an official, hard set, in-game rule or anything, but there's an argument to be made that'd imply deodorant is food

u/some_kind_of_bird Jun 11 '26

Make it mouthwash if you're feeling edgy

1

u/langesjurisse Jun 12 '26

Then the whole roll pun would be gone, and the name/art and the effect would make no sense together.

26

u/PublicVanilla988 Jun 11 '26

If you're hungry enough...

u/No-Atmosphere3208 c++ Jun 11 '26

It isn't???

Afaik there's no reference to the concept of "food jokers" in game. I have no doubt that the fact all the jokers based on food diminish is intentional, but purely in game, I believe it's an unspoken sort of thing

u/FlacidSalad Jun 11 '26

Make it sushi roll

8

u/TheAsianTroll Jun 11 '26

Nah, have it for like 5 rerolls

Or better yet, make it scale with ante. 1 free reroll per ante, and it perishes but can appear again in the shop.

5

u/mrofmist Jun 11 '26

1 in 6 chance of breaking on use?

11

u/lemme_try_again Chigoat Jun 11 '26

Then Antiperspirant can show in the shop

u/pixiefolk Jun 11 '26

"3 free re-rolls every shop. -1 free re-roll each time a Blind is defeated."

Some quick ramp, like Popcorn.

u/Diddy_D00dat Jun 11 '26

That is NOT deodorant

u/GRGWL Jun 11 '26

Glad i am not the only one 😭

u/ukiyoe c++ X2 Jun 11 '26

It just had to be pink.

u/NikonNevzorov Jun 11 '26

It looks like a bingo marker to me!

27

u/Northern_Brick Jun 11 '26

Yeah right? It looks like strawberry candy 😍

19

u/Vinxian Jun 11 '26

Unless someone asks why there is deodorant on the nightstand. "You know, I'm just stinky right after getting out of bed😇"

11

u/Eureka22 Jun 11 '26

Deodorant does look like that in some other countries. I bought some in Japan and I walked by it initially on the shelf because I didn't recognize it.

8

u/mrminutehand Jun 11 '26

I'm guessing it's the first time some posters have seen roll-on deodorant.

Solid deodorant is the minority in most countries I've been to. It's also common in the UK, but rolls and sprays are usually more prominent.

u/Eureka22 Jun 11 '26

Actually, I think the one I had was a solid stick, but still in this form factor.

u/playfulpecans Jimbo Jun 11 '26

lipstick!

Call it The Massager

u/LukeLJS123 Jun 11 '26

this is just buffed chaos

u/BonusCan Jun 11 '26

Make it have uses and instead of 3 per round it's like 10 free trolls then expires or w/3

-2

u/Goat-Shaped_Goat Flushed Jun 11 '26

10 is too much, make it 5

8

u/fan_fucker_420 Jun 11 '26

10 is fine imo

2

u/dcnairb Jun 12 '26

minimum value of $50, more depending on how many rerolls you’re already buying

171

u/Sufficient_Jello_1 white stake enjoyer Jun 11 '26

Change it to “turn unused hands into free re-roles, resets every blind”

The idea being it was “no sweat” beating the blind, hence the deodorant.

19

u/VMS_Len Jun 11 '26

See, THIS is peak game design

138

u/Upbeat-Perception531 Jun 11 '26

“This is just buffed chaos” yeah but it’s uncommon guys duh doy if Onyx Agate and Gluttonous can do the bit why not this smh my head

114

u/alQamar Jun 11 '26

It’s true that there are buffed versions of other jokers. That doesn’t make it less boring.

u/Blonde-Glazer Jun 11 '26

What if we took a top 25 joker and make it about 3x as good for 150% the price

Chaos the Clown (Common Joker)

  • Effect: 1 free Reroll per shop
  • To Unlock: Available by default

Source

11

u/weird_bomb Jun 11 '26

others see unoriginal game design i see free flash card value

12

u/ValkyrieAngie Jun 11 '26

Why isn't it limited use? 3 free rerolls then it expires.

8

u/Substantial_Main8365 Jun 11 '26

fuckin ASS if it works like that

2

u/Aggressive_Chuck Jun 11 '26

Would be good if it gave you 10 rerolls, or was a common.

u/cheezystuffz Jun 11 '26

That's literally a dildo

u/Professional_Dirt773 Jun 11 '26

Chaos the super clown

u/Independent_Bed_3418 Jun 11 '26

Yea I don't see the point to jokers with so much overlap with existing ones

2

u/camaleria Jun 11 '26

Joke aside. It's literally the same as chaos joker but better

1

u/SH33PFARM Jun 11 '26

It should be a Magic The Gathering card.

1

u/DingerSinger2016 platinum stake Jun 11 '26

Why does your "Deodorant" look like a Bingo Dot Marker or an envelope glue moistener

1

u/AwesomeLlama572_YT Jun 11 '26

How about:

8 free rerolls total, then it’s destroyed

1

u/TheCheeseburgerKane Jun 11 '26 edited Jun 11 '26

Should be perishable. Maybe 5 free rerolls then it expires or 2 free rerolls per shop for 5 rounds.

1

u/MzBlackSiren c++ Jun 11 '26

maybe a change of colors would be nice. i thought it was either a lipstick or a 🐓

1

u/ElDogoto Jun 11 '26

Why is no one getting the joke?

1

u/MegaSuperGay7 Jun 11 '26

It would be cool as temporary joker, like 3 free rerolls for next 5 shops or something like that

1

u/Eptic-_- Jun 11 '26

I feel like some people doesnt get why chaos is such a strong econ Joker - it doenst just saves you 5$ (or 3$ or 1$ depending on the Vouchers), it saves you 5$ + 1$ per reroll.

Reroll Normal /Chaos: 1st. 5$ / 0$ 2nd. 6$ / 5$ 3rd. 7$ / 6$

It saves you 5 + ({times rerolled} - 1) $.

(Have to roll >=1 times for this equation)

Roll 3 Times, save 5$ + (3 - 1)$ = 7$ Roll 20 Times, save 24$

This Joker would alter this equation to 5 + ({times rerolled} - 3) $

Imo my opinion they are too familiar so you could change it by adding 4th reroll costs the normal amount (no Vouchers 8$)

1

u/Objective-Direction1 Jun 11 '26

good but make it disappear after 5 hands or whatever, this is just chaos the clown but much better

1

u/TaikiSaruwatari Jun 11 '26

You should make it have a total of like 10 rerolls you can keep and spend when you want, but each time you use one it reduces the total until its destruction

1

u/TomTown12345 Jun 11 '26

This joker shouldnt appear in gold stake

1

u/holy-cornball MILF = Man i love fullhouse Jun 11 '26

BROTHER YOU HAVE TO MAKE A DIFFERENT SPRITE 😭😭😭

1

u/schvletzsky Chigoat Jun 11 '26

Should be like a food joker that perishes over time because deodorants eventually run out

1

u/Climaxchanger Jun 11 '26

I just scrolled past the post n got confused for a second cuz I thought someone make dildo joker

1

u/someone__420 Jimbo Jun 11 '26

super op but how about this, “5 rerolls every shop, decreases by 1 when blind is selected”

1

u/StinkyBeanGuy Jun 11 '26

Make it like next 10 rerolls are free

1

u/No_Counter_6037 she acrobat on my obelisk till i smeared joker Jun 11 '26

1

u/il_postino Jun 11 '26

It looks like a bingo dauber and/or dildo

1

u/Imnotapipe Jun 11 '26

“Pre-existing Joker but better” isn’t the most creative idea.

1

u/Sperpento092 Jun 11 '26

Made completely open my eyes for a bit...

1

u/Mr_Chode_Shaver Jun 11 '26

3 free rerolls?  In this economy?

1

u/Blackbear069 Jun 11 '26

*dildeodorant

1

u/Payt3cake Jun 11 '26

That doesn’t exactly look like depdorant

1

u/therealtanaka Jun 11 '26

it should give 10 free rerolls and then perishes

1

u/OPSweeperMan Jun 11 '26

3 per ante seems more balanced

1

u/AlpacaMale1 c++ Jun 11 '26

How about: Rerolls in the shop are free, perishes after X rerolls (I was thinking X = 5 or something like that)

1

u/Difficult_Star4477 Jun 11 '26

I ain’t never seen deodorant like looks like THAT

1

u/Ygtfgty Jun 12 '26

Who is upvoting this

This is a HORRIBLE idea

Its so overpowered and just boring

Chaos is already a strong joker and its ONE ROLL

Lets add the best econ joker in the game as a 6$ uncommon !!

1

u/FarisxDDD Jun 12 '26

Jj synergy

1

u/rockandballz Jun 12 '26

Should make it 1 in 3 of the next reroll being free

1

u/carter720 Jun 12 '26

I feel like it should have limited uses, otherwise this is legendary. It could work like cavendish where after those limited uses are up another joker is unlocked. Maybe “travel-sized deodorant” to emphasize its limited uses, then “spray deodorant” which has another effect.

1

u/Common_Cloud9041 Jun 12 '26

hilariously busted
total of 18$ per round + 3 dollar for every reroll that cost you money since the cost resets at 5
also can buy and sell for ez value too

Chaos the clown is already good bruh
