    Seeing double is decent and easy enough to trigger if you’re playing pair, three of a kind, four of a kind, full house, etc (basically anything but high card and flush). Main downside is it’s only a 2x mult, but that’s often good enough to beat ante 8 if you have some other easy to obtain xMult.

    I’ve only just unlocked Merry Andy so I can’t comment on it, other than that it must go hard with banner and delayed gratification. According to the wiki, even if you put Andy right of burglar, it still kills all your discards, which doesn’t make much sense to me; but it wouldn’t be a very good synergy anyways (maybe would be okay for a crappy straight flush deck, but even then you’re working with -1 hand size).

    I’ve never gotten a good run with golden ticket, but I could see it generating crazy econ with gold seal + gold card and hanging chad/sock & buskin/hack/other retrigger jonklers. It’s a lot of prerequisites.
