Swashbuckler is a Common Additive Mult Joker that provides + Mult equal to the sum of the sell value of all other owned Jokers. This Joker is unlocked once the player sells 20 Jokers.

Synergies

  • Black Deck gives an extra Joker slot, meaning Swashbuckler gets more Mult.
  • Similarly, Five-Card Draw gives two extra Joker slots, meaning Swashbuckler gets even more Mult.
  • Swashbuckler generally works well with negative Jokers, as they will increase the amount of Joker slots while also having substantial sell values of their own. Therefore, the Anaglyph Deck can synergize with Swashbuckler, where many players will opt to use their accumulating Double Tag on a Negative Tag.
  • The Omelette works very well with Swashbuckler, as this deck starts with multiple Eggs. With 4 Eggs, this Joker gains +12 Mult at the end of every Blind.
  • Inflation might work with Swashbuckler, as this deck permanently increases prices by $1 on every purchase, including the sell price. This Joker can provide a high amount of + Mult since it will scale when other Jokers' prices inflate.

Any poker hand can benefit from Swashbuckler.

Generally, Swashbuckler gets more benefits when it is with higher-rarity Jokers due to their higher sell values. In particular, the Legendary Jokers have a massive sell value of $10, which is double that of the next highest base sell value.

Some other notable synergies are:

  • Gift Card adds to the sell value for all other jokers at once, effectively scaling Swashbuckler over time.
  • Egg increases its sell value by $3 per blind, effectively scaling Swashbuckler over time.
  • When either of the two previous Jokers has been paired with Swashbuckler for long enough, Ceremonial Dagger is a very effective pivot away from Swashbuckler; because it will multiply built-up sell values by X2, it can both increase immediate scoring and open up a Joker Slot (or more) for other purposes.
  • Hone and Glow Up make it more likely for editioned Jokers to appear, which have a higher sell value, helping Swashbuckler gain +Mult.
  • Antimatter gives an extra Joker slot, meaning Swashbuckler gets more Mult.

Anti-Synergies

  • Swashbuckler's effectiveness can be decreased when using the Painted Deck, Blast Off, and Cruelty due to their reduced Joker slots.
  • Clearance Sale and Liquidation are not recommended, as they reduce the sell price of all Jokers and thus reduce the +Mult of Swashbuckler.

Trivia

  • Swashbucklers in fiction tend to be heroic types skilled in swordplay, acrobatics, and charm, ready to rescue princesses and with a strong sense of honour. Famous swashbucklers include Robin Hood, The Three Musketeers, and the Princess Bride's Dread Pirate Roberts.
  • Swashbuckler's default value in the Collection is +1 Mult, implying that there is a Joker in possession while in the Main Menu. If checked when in a run with no Jokers, the description will instead say (Currently +0 Mult).
