Gain +1 Hand Size for every Jack held in hand

Do you mean in your deck?

Or do you really mean held in hand — thereby insta-drawing cards to your hand until it’s stopped pulling jacks from the deck?

I mean hand size

#

Basically acts as if Jacks are negative

The Jacks though. Does it count the ones in your deck or in your hand?

He said in hand

gloomy mason
#

Held in hand

manic horizon
#

which makes sense

#

because otherwise it's a free +4 hand size

#

Which is straight up excessive

#

I'd even tone it down to +1 hand size every TWO jacks in hand

Oh nice, thinking of them as negative cards helps me visualize it

#

playing with the idea of Jack and the beanstalk, maybe something similar to the serpent boss blind, where each Jack played or discarded draws two cards instead of one

That would be cool for Gold Stake Run

So this seems to be the opposite of Hit the Road,instead of gaining jacks to discard them for mult, you get steel or gold jacks to benefit from their held in hand effect. This also is made more balanced given that jacks have no jokers that have held in hand effects like Queens and Kings.

#

This seems alright.

Actually it’s Hit the road synergy

#

Just discard the jacks lol

#

They’re negative anyway

#

And if you have your deck all Jacks, draw your whole deck
