+50 Chips

Foil is an edition card modifier that makes a Joker or playing card give +50 Chips.

Foil adds +$2 to the buy price of jokers and playing cards (with Illusion ({{hl|orange|Playing cards}} in shop may have an [[Card Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|sblue|Enhancement}}]], [[Card Modifiers#Edition|{{hl|edition|Edition}}]], and/or a [[Card Modifiers#Seal|{{hl|orange|Seal}}]] Buy a total of 20 Playing cards from the shop Upgraded Illusion.png)).

• Foil Jokers can naturally appear in the Shop with a 2% chance.
  • The chance to get a Foil can be increased with Hone ({{hl|edition|Foil}}, {{hl|edition|Holographic}}, and {{hl|edition|Polychrome}} cards appear {{hl|orange|2X}} more often Base Hone.png) & Glow Up ({{hl|edition|Foil}}, {{hl|edition|Holographic}}, and {{hl|edition|Polychrome}} cards appear {{hl|orange|4X}} more often Have at least 5 Joker cards with Foil, Holographic, or Polychrome (or Negative) effect Upgraded Glow Up.png) by 2X and 4X respectively.
• Ankh (Create a copy of a random [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Joker}}]], destroy all other Jokers <br> {{hl|gray|(Removes {{hl|edition|Negative}} from copy)}} Available from start. Spectral Ankh.png) is able to duplicate Foil Jokers.
• Invisible Joker (After {{hl|orange|2}} rounds, sell this card to {{hl|orange|Duplicate}} a random Joker <br> {{currently|{{hl|orange|0}}/2}} <br> {{hl|gray|(Removes [[Negative|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] from copy)}} Win a run without ever having more than {{hl|orange|4 Jokers}} Rare Effect N/A (Passive) Invisible Joker.png) can copy a Foil Joker, and the copy will keep the edition.
• The Wheel of Fortune ({{hl|green|1 in 4}} chance to add [[Foil|{{hl|edition|Foil}}]], [[Holographic|{{hl|edition|Holographic}}]], or [[Polychrome|{{hl|edition|Polychrome}}]] edition to a random [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Joker}}]] Available from start. Tarot The Wheel of Fortune.png) has a 50% chance of applying Foil to a random Joker if it activates.
• Foil Tag ( Discover the {{edition|Foil}} edition Foil tag.png) applies Foil to the next base edition joker in the shop and makes it free.

• Foil playing cards can be naturally acquired from Standard Packs with a 4% chance.
  • The chance to get a Foil can be increased with Hone ({{hl|edition|Foil}}, {{hl|edition|Holographic}}, and {{hl|edition|Polychrome}} cards appear {{hl|orange|2X}} more often Base Hone.png) & Glow Up ({{hl|edition|Foil}}, {{hl|edition|Holographic}}, and {{hl|edition|Polychrome}} cards appear {{hl|orange|4X}} more often Have at least 5 Joker cards with Foil, Holographic, or Polychrome (or Negative) effect Upgraded Glow Up.png) by 2X and 4X respectively.
• Foil playing cards are able to be purchased from the Shop if Illusion ({{hl|orange|Playing cards}} in shop may have an [[Card Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|sblue|Enhancement}}]], [[Card Modifiers#Edition|{{hl|edition|Edition}}]], and/or a [[Card Modifiers#Seal|{{hl|orange|Seal}}]] Buy a total of 20 Playing cards from the shop Upgraded Illusion.png) is owned.
• Aura (Add [[Foil|{{hl|edition|Foil}}]], [[Holographic|{{hl|edition|Holographic}}]], or [[Polychrome|{{hl|edition|Polychrome}}]] effect to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in hand Available from start. Spectral Aura.png) has a 50% chance to apply Foil to a selected playing card in your hand.
• Death (Select {{hl|orange|2}} cards, convert the {{hl|orange|left}} card into the {{hl|orange|right}} card<br>{{hl|gray|(Drag to rearrange)}} Available from start. Tarot Death.png), Cryptid (Create {{hl|orange|2}} copies of {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Cryptid.png), and DNA (If {{hl|orange|first hand}} of round has only {{hl|orange|1}} card, add a permanent copy to deck and draw it to {{hl|orange|hand}} Rare Effect On Played DNA.png) can duplicate Foil playing cards.

• Due to being an edition that is often given to playing cards (through Standard Packs, Aura (Add [[Foil|{{hl|edition|Foil}}]], [[Holographic|{{hl|edition|Holographic}}]], or [[Polychrome|{{hl|edition|Polychrome}}]] effect to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in hand Available from start. Spectral Aura.png), etc.), Jokers that can retrigger playing cards that may have Foil like Hanging Chad (Retrigger {{hl|orange|first}} played card used in scoring {{hl|orange|2}} additional times Beat a Boss Blind with a {{ph|High Card}} Common Retrigger On Scored Hanging Chad.png), Sock and Buskin (Retrigger all played {{hl|orange|face}} cards Play a total of {{hl|orange|300}} face cards Uncommon Retrigger On Scored Sock and Buskin.png), and Hack (Retrigger each played {{hl|orange|2}}, {{hl|orange|3}}, {{hl|orange|4}}, or {{hl|orange|5}} Uncommon Retrigger On Scored Hack.png) have the ability to indirectly provide hundreds of Chips through retriggers.
• Nearly all Jokers that give a large amount of Mult (namely, ones that are able to give a high amount of +Mult like Ceremonial Dagger (When [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, destroy [[Jokers|Joker]] to the right and permanently add {{hl|orange|double}} its sell value to this {{hl|red|Mult}} <br> {{currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Uncommon Additive Mult Independent Ceremonial Dagger.png) or Flash Card (This Joker gains {{Mult|+2}} per {{hl|orange|reroll}} in [[The Shop|the shop]] <br> {{Currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Uncommon Additive Mult Independent Flash Card.png)) benefit from Chips increasing often much more significantly than Mult.
  • This is because if a hand is currently at, say, 10 Chips X 100 Mult, +50 Chips would increase the net score by a much higher amount than +50 Mult would.

• Plasma Deck ( Balance [[Chips|{{hl|blue|Chips}}]] and [[Mult|{{hl|red|Mult}}]] when calculating score for played hand <br> {{hl|red|X2}} base Blind size Win a run with any [[Decks|deck]] on the {{Stake|Blue}} difficulty or harder Plasma Deck.png) balances Chips and Mult, with one Foil card yielding up to 625 Chips (25x25). This is often significantly better than Holographic ({{mult|+10}} Joker (Holographic).png) or even Polychrome ({{xmult|1.5}} Joker (Polychrome).png), especially in most early to mid-game runs.
• Ghost Deck ( [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Spectral}}]] cards may appear in the shop, start with a {{spectral|Hex}} card Win a run with the {{D|Yellow}} on [[Stakes|any difficulty]] Ghost Deck.png) makes it much easier to find spectral cards like Aura (Add [[Foil|{{hl|edition|Foil}}]], [[Holographic|{{hl|edition|Holographic}}]], or [[Polychrome|{{hl|edition|Polychrome}}]] effect to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in hand Available from start. Spectral Aura.png) or Cryptid (Create {{hl|orange|2}} copies of {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Cryptid.png) that are able to either make existing cards Foil or create new Foil cards.

• Red Seals (Retrigger this card {{hl|orange|1}} time Red Seal.png) are able to be applied to Foil playing cards, causing each one to give +100 Chips.

• Due to the fact that +50 Chips is a quite large amount of score, obtaining even just two Foil Jokers can often lead the player into not needing a Joker that provides Chips. This is especially the case if Foil playing cards are utilized, as playing cards can be retriggered and are much more easily able to be duplicated compared to Jokers.
