Cadaver boss blind does not count debuffed face cards as face cards

[misterblue28]

If the Cadaver boss blind is active, and one plays a hand containing one or more debuffed face cards (and no non-debuffed face cards), the Cadaver will reject the hand. The wording of the boss blind implies no such restriction.

In general, debuffed face cards don't count as face cards so I don't see this as a bug. I assume the game correctly warned you that playing the hand would not count?

Though, I'm interested if you saw a similar interaction with The Mark (vanilla boss blind "Face cards are drawn face down").

Didn't get the Mark on this run, so I can't say for certain. The warning does appear, but I personally would say that "debuffed face cards are not face cards" is extremely unintuitive behaviour. (In my case, nearly every face card in my deck was debuffed due to the Double or Nothing challenge, so I had no opportunity to even score a hand at all. Since I didn't realise this interaction would be a thing until the warning showed up mid-round, I had no chance to deck-fix my way out of the problem in advance.)

If this is the intended behaviour then fair enough -- I don't know if there's a way to adjust the wording of the boss blind to make this clearer?

Yeah the Cadaver only shows up if you have at least one face card, so if they were all debuffed it won't show up. I might up the threshold on that, but no promises. (It wouldn't be too hard to do that meantime yourself, though. Just look for Cadaver in the code.)
