I really can't credit Balatro enough for how it does Endless mode. I was the same way about thinking that Endless is never really that good, but the way that scoring interacts with the quickly-ramping blinds mean that Endless doesn't drag and actually feels like a matter of strategy against a perilous challenge rather than a grind.

flat mult sucks. don't know why chat keeps suggesting it at late game. gets quickly outscaled due to planet card upgrades a +20 mult joker might seem like a lot when your base mult is low and you have crazy multiple 2x, 3x mult jokers. but a +20 mult joker to a 40mult hand type is equivalent to a 1.5x joker. it gets even worse when you have any holographic cards or you already have a flat mult card. for example scholar was giving usually +20 mult per hand becoming basically a 1.5x joker. adding jolly joker, a +8 mult, to a +60 mult hand is equivalent to a 1.13x joker you can find much better times mult jokers than flat mult late game. scholar was fine since there was red seals to consider but adding another flat mult card makes both cards a lot less significant compared to even the weakest of times mult cards

i’m wondering when it’s good to scale chips too. obviously when your mult is higher than chips the marginal value of 1 extra chip is worth more than 1 extra mult in a vacuum. but considering i haven’t seen any jokers that multiply chip amounts it probably just makes more sense to get as many high mult multiplier jokers as possible to scale
