I got completionist++ again, this time using the painted deck.

I love the painted deck but this was more difficult than the ghost deck. Getting a good econ going was much harder with only four joker slots

Even with the increased hand size enabling five-card hands I still played mostly pairs. Straights were notably easier to play, however, making Runner S-tier for this deck because I could often play two straights per round. Reserved Parking also became extremely valuable with the increased hand size.

Knife, which is normally a very good card, was very very bad on the painted deck.

I was also surprised to find that steel cards, which I normally don't value very much, were much more valuable on this deck

I am mystified by Blue Joker being my sixth-most used Joker. It's not a Joker I think highly of, either it's better than I think or perhaps I make bad choices in my Joker purchases

Anyway here is my updated tier list. I don't know how I went this long not recognizing Mime's power but I get it now, what a fantastic joker
