Until you try to break a glass card on purpose to thin out your deck

Also the space guy triggers every time I dig with a throwaway hand

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago

You've got it backwards. Space joker for hand you want to level? 0% Space joker for random hand you played to cycle cards? 100%

Glass cards are a 50/50 chance, so it happens more often.

It's 1/4, that's why you get two dice jokers in the fragile challenge.

My glass cards almost never break. It’s insane.

[–] noxfortuna@lemm.ee 5 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

I was this person once, but lately almost every glass card I throw breaks on the first use. It's insane 😭

If you want your glass cards to stop breaking pick up Glass Joker, they'll fall in line if they know breaking benefits you.

That sounds about right.

I'm sure the tables will turn and we will switch places eventually.

I had the same experience as you when it came to Wheel of Fortune. I legit did a search after the first dozen I used to see if the card was just broken. 😂

You're the statistical outlier breaking all our cards! GET HIM!!!

[–] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 7 points 11 hours ago

Yeah it's me. I will play entire games throwing 2-3 glass cards down per hand without a single break. I can only remember seeing the break animation 3 times in 150 hours (although I'm sure I've missed a few).
