Especially in higher stakes, but just in general I find myself going for high card, pair, and two pair builds. I was just wondering if anyone had any other builds they are excited about.

If you can get good joker RNG and a critical mass of tarot packs, building for Four/Five of a Kind is where you'll see your insane scores.

Straights are usually where I aim as they scale really well and can be reliable to finish a game.

This is probably dumb on my part but I didn't realize straights scale so well. I guess I lumped them as slightly better than flushes.

Something usually only needs to be slightly better to scale well

Yea, It do but My 2 braincells only know Flush or Five of a Kind with DNA joker.
