Boss Blind Reference

There are 28 boss blinds in Balatro. Each one changes the rules for a single round instead of just raising the score. The table below lists when each boss can first appear, its score multiplier, and the debuff it applies. The numbers come from the game files. Boss score itself scales with the ante, so the multiplier is what stays fixed.
