Just finding one in the shop or a pack? It's 0.3% chance it's negative, 0.3% chance it's polychrome, 1.4% chance it's holographic, and 2% chance it's foil.
The Hone and Glow Up vouchers only apply to the latter three, so negative keeps the same odds. Because of that, polychrome actually gets more of an upgrade, since it kind of gets the odds increase negative would normally have gotten.

If you want negative cards, you're better off buying spectral packs to change one into negative, or getting the negative tag by skipping a round. Encountering one in the wild is very rare.

I see many a youtube clip of folks having several negatives and am confused how it happens at such low odds

Safe to say that I am playing in a way that doesnt allow for large chip potential. Hopefully I learn to get good :p

Most common way to get a bunch of negatives, is probably having one or more double tags, then taking a negative tag.
That said, you certainly don't need negative jokers to get good enough scores, so don't worry too much about it. Better to focus on figuring out what synergizes well, and how the math and activation order work. Good luck :steamthumbsup:
