Honestly I just really like the concept of burnt joker, so I wanted to come up with a few ideas to make discards more useful.

Arsonist Joker: Discards can contain +1 extra card.

The Heist: Discarded cards have a 1 in 6 chance of giving +2 dollars.

Bucket List: If discard contains [poker hand] gain +1 hand, poker hand changes on every played hand.

The Miner: Discarded stone cards lose their edition and permanently gain +10 mult.

Dumpster Fire: +0.05X mult per card discarded. Resets after boss blind.

Composter: Add +2 chips per discarded card.

composter is a stronger version of castle unless it resets

Ah true, maybe something like “+1 mult if discard contains four or more cards” instead?

sounds interesting but probably scales too fast

Would theoretically scale up slower than ride the bus I think, since you don’t usually have more discards than hands

what if composter added +2 chips to the cards discarded

#

like how hiker adds +4 to cards played
