The Joker combos
There's a lot of combo potential with Joker, but they can be tough to use. I've found a strong starter to many of his combos to be his neutral attack, as the heart card will pull in enemies, letting you get off more moves.
Following this with a side attack combo can get you more hits in, before landing the side special Blastoff! to do huge burst damage and even knock a fighter out.
Joker also combos well in the air thanks to his aerial down attack, which launches him up and positions you well to rain down with the down special Fire In The Hole!
The Joker perks

Joker's Wild |
When you throw a car, you will sometimes throw an explosive Joker card. |

Runaway Inflation |
Your balloon grows in size the longer you charge it. |
When it comes to more neutral perks for The Joker, I recommend starting with Armour Killer, which stop armoured enemies from briefly using any armour after getting hit. Due to the amount of ranged attacks you can throw out with Joker, you can consistently keep other fighters weaker.
Joker also has a lot of projectiles, making That's Flammable, Doc! And Static Electricity solid picks. The first lets you ignite enemies with a hit after landing a projectile, while the latter lets you apply shocked to your next projectile after moving along the ground.
