Hologram is an Uncommon scaling Multiplicative Mult Joker that gains X0.25 Mult when new playing cards are added to the deck. It starts at X1 Mult and gains an additional X0.25 Mult for each playing card added after its acquisition. The effect is based solely on gaining cards; keeping the cards afterwards is not required.

• 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) offers upside to Hologram thanks to its easier access to Spectral Cards, especially those mentioned in the Synergetic Consumables section.
• Abandoned Deck ( Start run with no {{F|}}[[Card Ranks#Face cards|{{hl|orange|Face Cards}}]] in your deck Win a run with the {{D|Green}} on [[Stakes|any difficulty]] Abandoned Deck.png) and Mad World ( ) work well with Hologram thanks to their low amount of starting cards.
• Medusa ( ) and Monolith ( ) both work well with Hologram, as these decks both start with a Marble Joker (Adds one [[Stone Cards|{{hl|orange|Stone}}]] card to the deck when [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Marble Joker.png), which means Hologram gains X0.25 Mult for free each blind.

Hologram can be used with any Poker Hand, but small hands such as High Card or Pair are affected the least when constantly adding new cards to the deck.

• 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) duplicates the first card played if it is the only card.
• Certificate (When round begins, add a random {{hl|orange|playing card}} with a random [[Seal|{{hl|orange|seal}}]] to your hand Have a [[Gold_Cards|Gold playing card]] with a [[Gold_Seal|{{hl|orange|Gold Seal}}]] Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Certificate.png) adds a random playing card to hand when a round starts.
• Marble Joker (Adds one [[Stone Cards|{{hl|orange|Stone}}]] card to the deck when [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Marble Joker.png) adds a Stone Card ({{chips|+50}}<br>no rank or suit Stone Card.png) when a Blind is selected.
• Blue Joker ({{Chips|+2}} for each remaining card in {{hl|orange|deck}} <br> {{currently|{{chips|+104}}}} Common Chips Independent Blue Joker.png) gives Chips for every remaining card in your deck.
• Trading Card (If {{hl|orange|first discard}} of round has only {{hl|orange|1}} card, destroy it and earn {{Money|3}} Uncommon Economy On Discard Trading Card.png) allows you to destroy cards at will, thus preventing the deck from becoming too bloated while keeping the benefit of this Joker.
• Vagabond (Create a [[Tarot Cards|{{hl|purple|Tarot}}]] card if hand is played with {{Money|4}} or less Rare Effect Independent Vagabond.png) and Cartomancer (Create a [[Tarot Cards|{{hl|purple|Tarot}}]] card when [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected <br> {{room}} Discover every Tarot Card. Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Cartomancer.png) create Tarots, some of which are useful for handling added cards that aren't meant to be kept.
• Sixth Sense (If {{hl|orange|first hand}} of round is a single {{hl|orange|6}}, destroy it and create a [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Spectral}}]] card <br> {{room}} Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Sixth_Sense.png) and Séance (If [[Poker Hands|{{hl|orange|poker hand}}]] is a {{ph|Straight Flush}}, create a random [[Spectral_Cards|{{hl|sblue|Spectral}}]] card <br> {{room}} Uncommon Effect Independent Séance.png) can create useful spectral cards (see the Consumables section), which can give this Joker a sizable boost. Additionally, Sixth Sense can slightly alleviate deck bloating by destroying 6s.
  • Perkeo (Creates a [[Negative|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] copy of {{hl|orange|1}} random [[Consumables|{{hl|orange|consumable}}]] card in your possession at the end of the [[The Shop|{{hl|orange|shop}}]] Find this [[Jokers|Joker]] from the [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Soul}}]] card. Legendary Effect N/A (Passive) Perkeo.png) can then create copies of said spectral cards, scaling your Hologram by up to X1 Mult per round (or more with Blueprint (Copies ability of [[Jokers|{{Hl|orange|Joker}}]] to the right Win a run Rare Effect Blueprint.png) and Brainstorm (Copies the ability of leftmost [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Joker}}]] Discard a {{ph|Royal Flush}}. Rare Effect Brainstorm.png)).

• Familiar (Destroy {{hl|orange|1}} random card in your hand, add {{hl|orange|3}} random [[Card Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|orange|Enhanced}}]] [[Card Ranks#Face cards|{{hl|orange|face cards}}]] to your hand Available from start. Spectral Familiar.png), Grim (Destroy {{hl|orange|1}} random card in your hand, add {{hl|orange|2}} random [[Card Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|orange|Enhanced}}]] [[Card Ranks#Aces|{{hl|orange|Aces}}]] to your hand Available from start. Spectral Grim.png), Incantation (Destroy {{hl|orange|1}} random card in your hand, add {{hl|orange|4}} random [[Card_Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|orange|Enhanced}}]] [[Card Ranks#Number cards|{{hl|orange|numbered cards}}]] to your hand Available from start. Spectral Incantation.png), and Cryptid (Create {{hl|orange|2}} copies of {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Cryptid.png) add cards to the deck and buff Hologram at the same time.
• Immolate (Destroys {{hl|orange|5}} random cards in hand, gain {{Money|20}} Available from start. Spectral Immolate.png) removes 5 cards and gains $20, which is a good way to trim the deck at no cost to Hologram.
• Glass Cards ({{xmult|2}}<br>{{hl|green|1 in 4}} chance to destroy card Glass Card.png) from Justice (Enhances {{hl|orange|1}} selected card into a [[Card Modifiers|{{hl|orange|Glass Card}}]] Available from start. Tarot Justice.png) have a chance to shatter, so they won't clog the deck forever, and they'll be useful for XMult in the meantime.
• The Hanged Man (Destroys up to {{hl|orange|2}} selected cards Available from start. Tarot The Hanged Man.png) allows destroying any miscellaneous junk cards that were only added to pump Hologram.

• Magic Trick ({{hl|orange|Playing cards}} can be purchased from the [[The Shop|{{hl|orange|shop}}]] Base Magic Trick.png) adds playing cards to the Shop, effectively allowing players to scale Hologram at X0.25 Mult per $1. More playing cards can be purchased per shop with help from Overstock ({{hl|orange|+1}} card slot available in shop Base Overstock.png) and Overstock Plus ({{hl|orange|+1}} card slot available in shop Spend a total of {{Money|2500}} at the shop Upgraded Overstock Plus.png) to increase the shop selection, plus Reroll Surplus (Rerolls cost {{Money|2}} less Base Reroll Surplus.png) and Reroll Glut (Rerolls cost an additional {{Money|2}} less Reroll the shop a total of 100 times Upgraded Reroll Glut.png) to make rerolling cheaper.
• Omen Globe ({{Spectral|}} cards may appear in any of the [[Arcana Packs|{{hl|orange|Arcana Packs}}]] Use a total of 25 Tarot cards from booster packs Upgraded Omen Globe.png) makes it easier to find the Familiar (Destroy {{hl|orange|1}} random card in your hand, add {{hl|orange|3}} random [[Card Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|orange|Enhanced}}]] [[Card Ranks#Face cards|{{hl|orange|face cards}}]] to your hand Available from start. Spectral Familiar.png), Grim (Destroy {{hl|orange|1}} random card in your hand, add {{hl|orange|2}} random [[Card Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|orange|Enhanced}}]] [[Card Ranks#Aces|{{hl|orange|Aces}}]] to your hand Available from start. Spectral Grim.png), Incantation (Destroy {{hl|orange|1}} random card in your hand, add {{hl|orange|4}} random [[Card_Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|orange|Enhanced}}]] [[Card Ranks#Number cards|{{hl|orange|numbered cards}}]] to your hand Available from start. Spectral Incantation.png), and Cryptid (Create {{hl|orange|2}} copies of {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Cryptid.png) Spectral Cards, all of which add playing cards into the deck and thus scale Hologram.

• Fragile ( ) doesn't work well with Hologram due to all sources of adding playing cards besides 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) being banned in this deck.

Hologram is probably weakest when paired with strategies that prioritize Straights and Straight Flushes, because it is harder to gain cards into runs than it is to gain cards into sets.

• Erosion ({{Mult|+4}} for each card below {{hl|orange|[the deck's starting size]}} in your full deck <br> {{Currently|{{Mult|+0}}}} Uncommon Additive Mult Independent Erosion.png) has anti-synergy as it gives mult for having a small deck.
• Since one of the primary ways to scale Hologram is with the use of Booster Packs, Red Card (This Joker gains {{Mult|+3}} when any [[Booster Packs|{{hl|orange|Booster Pack}}]] is skipped <br> {{Currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Common Additive Mult Independent Red_Card.png) can be hard to use alongside Hologram.

• This card is animated, like the Legendary Jokers (the Joker face is hovering above the card), but it is also flickering like an old CRT television screen. This hovering effect can also be seen on the placeholder image for undiscovered Jokers in the Collection.
• When Hologram turns Negative ({{hl|edition|+1}} Joker or Consumable slot Joker (Negative).png), the sprite colors of the Joker itself aren't inverted because the animated sprite is separated from the card itself.
• On Gold Stake, the Rental () Sticker is mostly obscured by the Joker's hat, which may catch players by surprise.
