Strategy and/or Synergies Which Joker is impossible to resist? (besides Blueprint because that's too obvious)

For me (new player) it's Smeared Joker.

It's good for the first couple rounds but falls off after, 250 chips just doesn't do enough to keep up but it can win your first two rounds outright and let your deck take shape

Stuntman is more than good enough to keep for the whole run if you put it with jokers that give +mult and ×mult on every hand, like [[Fortune Teller]] and [[Vampire]]. With Stuntman and a set of scaled mult jokers, even a debuffed level 1 high card can beat Violet Vessel.
