Data Vault Run (2-Slot Average)1.4Pearl
Hunt for high-value collectibles with Collectible (Large) in 1R → check for the Data Vault (5.12M) with the 2-slot average in 2R → all-in in 2R if it's there, otherwise bid up to the board value — a Data Vault-hunting strategy
Advanced All-round
Blackbird 1R All-in (Advanced All-round)1.4Pearl
If the 1R prophecy reveals a high-value collectible, go all-in in 1R → otherwise hunt for high-value ones with Collectible (Large) in 1R → decide again on the 3R and 5R prophecies — the standard Blackbird strategy
Advanced All-round
Blackbird 1R All-in (No-Device)1.4Pearl
Only the Fate's Prophecies in 1R, 3R and 5R, no devices — all-in if a value or identity confirms a high-value collectible, play off the floor if it's a silhouette, and otherwise hold out low for the bonus

Poker-Face Play (Blackbird)1.4Pearl
See only red locations with Rarity (Large) in 1R and hold out low (1–2R) → confirm with Collectible (Large) and snipe in the round a prophecy points at a high-value piece (2R or 3R) or in 4R — an advanced Blackbird mind game that reads the board while keeping its prophecies hidden
Advanced All-round
Blackbird 1R All-in (Mega Rarity)1.4Pearl
Find high-value pieces with the 1R prophecy and Collectible (Mega) and go all-in in 1R → otherwise read the board with Rarity (Mega) in 2R and the 3R prophecy plus Size (Mega), then commit — a Mega Blackbird play that saves the expensive Collectible (Special)
Mega Rarity
Luminous Goblet Run (Blackbird)1.4Pearl
Read board size and high-value ones first with Collectible (Mega) in 1R; if a prophecy points to the Luminous Goblet (16.8M), go all-in without the 9-slot → on a red 3×3 or a big board, check with the 9-slot average in 2R — a Blackbird Luminous Goblet strategy
