#[QOL] Jokers that select a card/rank from your deck at end of round should indicate this behavior

Some Jokers that change their selected card, rank, or suit every round select from your deck (e.g. The Idol, Mail-In Rebate, Castle), while others choose an entirely random option (after looking on the wiki, I guess Ancient Joker is the only one). The problem is that the descriptions for both types of Joker read exactly the same, meaning there's no way for a player to figure out which is which without either rigorous testing or consulting the wiki.

To solve this issue, I think Jokers that select from your deck should be more clear that they select from your deck. One option could be "[card/rank/suit] chosen randomly from deck at end of round" instead of "[card/rank/suit] changes every round", although that might be overly wordy, so I'm open to other options.

TLDR: The Jokers that change at the end of the round should be more clear about whether they select from your deck or whethet they're entirely random.

As a much less important side note, the formatting of these Jokers' descriptions could really be more consistent; Ancient Joker and The Idol have small "changes every round" text while the others don't, and Ancient Joker and To-Do List are the only of these Jokers that say "changes at end of round" rather than "changes every round". Personally, I prefer the smaller text and the "changes at end of round" formatting, but I really wouldn't mind which as long as they were consistent. This is a really minor nitpick, but I figured I'd mention it.

Confusing and unnecessary

I don't think it's confusing, and it's definitely necessary

#

Whether Jokers select from your deck or not is a vital part of their behavior

#

If The Idol selected randomly instead of from your deck, it would be a lot worse and its playstyle would be completely different (prioritize discards and card variety rather than deckfixing to have as many of the same card as possible)
