Why is "Joker idea" the title of your post

We can already tell it's a Joker suggestion by the tags, just put the name (and rarity if you want)

I kind of like it, but the +1 hand feels like it has 2 effects which is usually a no

I think it could be more clearly phrased as "On first hand of round, played cards are returned to hand after being scored"

its not great but its not bad either

[small needle]

does every card played go back to your hand or

wait but think about it

canio and hologram

I thought about that too, but I thought the Hologram synergy was way too strong anyway

[balmy granite]

youre boring right

The idea of getting value from the creation or destruction is intriguing,

But this feels low value most of the time and too powerful once you've got a strong synergy that this triggers.

It also seems annoying and repetitive to have the same hand twice in a row. .

First suggestion is to limit it to first scored card, to keep the synergy powerful but not bonkers
This also makes the second hand different, as long as you played at last 2 cards

Second suggestion is to change the card somehow to give this deck fixing utility so it does something when your don't have synergies. Perhaps one rank lower (the copy is weaker) or change suit (projector has imperfect color duplication)

Third suggestion would be to remove the extra hand, as it's text is already about the longest on the game.
