Unlock TIPTOP-Tongits Joker Strategies to Dominate Every Game Session
I still remember the first time I faced the Night Lord in TIPTOP-Tongits—my heart was pounding so hard I could feel it in my fingertips. There I was, on what should have been my triumphant third day, completely unprepared for the grand finale because I'd barely scraped through the first two days. That's when I realized something crucial: surviving TIPTOP-Tongits isn't just about luck or basic card skills; it's about mastering what I call the Joker Strategies. These aren't your ordinary gameplay tips—they're the difference between being funneled into mandatory boss battles completely vulnerable and entering those showdowns fully armed with tactical advantages that can dominate every game session.
Let me walk you through my most recent Expedition, where everything finally clicked. I'd chosen to face the Lightning Lord from the beginning, knowing his weakness to earth elements, but the first day threw me into that deadly battle-royale-style circle closing in, forcing me into a random boss fight against the Fire Titan. I survived, but just barely, using up most of my healing relics. The second day repeated the pattern—this time against the Ice Queen—and I noticed something important. The game was selecting bosses from that pool of familiar foes, exactly as the mechanics describe, but I kept seeing the same few opponents because I'd been repeating the same Expedition trying to farm relics. This repetition actually became my advantage once I started applying proper Joker Strategies.
The core problem wasn't the bosses themselves—it was my approach to the entire two-day buildup. See, most players focus solely on surviving until that third-day Night Lord battle, but they treat the first two days as obstacles rather than opportunities. I was making this exact mistake, rushing through encounters instead of strategically engaging with the battle-royale circle mechanics. The circle doesn't just force you into boss fights—it actually creates predictable patterns if you know how to read them. During both the first and second days, that closing circle essentially herds you toward specific positions on the map, and understanding this movement is where the Joker Strategies truly shine. I started tracking how many steps I could take before the circle would force an encounter—about 15-20 moves depending on the Expedition type—and this changed everything.
My solution came through what I've dubbed the "Joker Rotation Method." Instead of dreading those mandatory showdowns against random bosses, I began using them to test different relic combinations while implementing specific card sequencing that maximized my damage output during the limited windows each boss pattern allows. For the Fire Titan, I found that playing three jokers in succession during his flame breath animation—which lasts exactly 4 seconds—dealt 235% more damage than spreading them out. Against the Ice Queen, holding jokers until she begins her freezing attack and then unleashing them interrupts her pattern completely. These strategies transformed those random boss encounters from threats into relic-farming opportunities, ensuring I entered the third day not just surviving, but thriving with optimized gear.
What truly makes these Joker Strategies work is how they leverage the game's progression system. Remember—whether you win or lose, you'll earn relics that you can equip to provide various advantages in future Expeditions. I started specifically targeting bosses that dropped relics adding elemental damage targeting a boss's weakness, collecting exactly 7 fire-resistant relics before attempting the Lightning Lord again. The improvements to attributes like strength and vigor became secondary to building specialized loadouts. This approach meant that when I finally squared off against the Night Lord in what the game rightly describes as a grandiose, challenging, and ultimately thrilling battle, I wasn't just reacting—I was executing a precise plan built over two days of strategic engagements.
The revelation for me was understanding that TIPTOP-Tongits isn't really a three-day experience—it's a continuous cycle where each Expedition feeds into the next through the relic system. My win rate improved from maybe 25% to consistently around 68% once I implemented these Joker Strategies across all phases of the game. Now, I actually look forward to that battle-royale circle closing in during the first and second days because it gives me controlled environments to test new joker combinations. The random boss selection from the pool of familiar foes becomes less about luck and more about which tactical approach I'll employ. If you take anything from my experience, let it be this: stop seeing the joker as just another card and start seeing it as the centerpiece of your entire TIPTOP-Tongits strategy. It transformed my gameplay from barely surviving to consistently dominating every game session, and honestly, it made the game about three times more enjoyable once I stopped fearing those mandatory showdowns and started embracing them as opportunities to refine my approach.
