Time-out box
Rare
Disables the joker immediately to the right
+1 Joker Slot
This joker will never have the negative edition.

This joker would be a great support because of its no-cost utility. It can disable pareidolia on The Plant, and disable smeared joker on suit-based boss blinds. There are quite a few other cases (burglar on the needle, OA6 on the wheel etc) but notably it can also turn off scoring jokers in order to scale other jokers more or earn more money. Also, it could allow chaos the clown to give you a free reroll after you reroll once or twice, and give you the freebie on the more expensive one. The reason this wouldn't be broken is that it's rare (same caliber as blueprint, pretty much the best joker in the game) and is only helpful to some builds.

I tagged this as a joker a wrote it as such but it might be a better fit for a deck. (It would give you a spot to put a joker to disable it maybe)

(Yes I know it would break campfire to an extent, if need be it could be tweaked to have campfire reset in shops and have time-out only work in blinds)

I like this idea. Make sure it doesn't give +1 joker slot if it's not disabling anything though

Besides just stopping things like say obelisk from resetting, green joker from going down and pareidolia on the plant, it is good just for the extra joker slot at potentially no cost. By this, I mean, jokers like cartomancer, rebate, hallucination and trading card that trigger aside from scoring jokers can be disabled during scoring at no cost, a free joker slot.

I'm a big fan of this one. Almost like a reverse blueprint. Prompts you to pay closer attention to your jokers and their order. Huge utility potential if used correctly

Take one, give one

#

All it does is let you time out a Joker, your total slots don't change

would this turn popcorn and turtle bean into another timed event like mime with gold cards?

#

Yes, it would

#

Great idea regardless

oh by the way burglar is perfectly compatible with needle, the burglar hands don't get removed

I think it should be pinned to the first 4 slots so you have to debuff something to give this a downside otherwise it's a always take

If it took up a joker slot, it would be a never take

#

A joker that doesn't do anything on it's own and actively hinders you most of the time (whether it helps you or not) is not worth one slot

Maybe it could only work during scoring

#

That would avoid silly things like campfire too

this would be funny for 1 bajillion time out boxes

#

not useful but funny

If it works with turtle bean, it needs to take up a joker slot

You could have it disable on exiting the shop

Like perkeo

and the quick time event wouldn't be hard at all since you can move the card as soon as scoring starts
