Jacks cannot be played or discarded. Each jack held in hand retriggers each played card.
Description could be slightly altered to ban mime if that's too OP
Probably rare??? kinda close to legendary grounds mechanically but not that good compared to everything else
what happens when all cards in hand are jack is a bit questionable, looking at other parts it should be an instant loss, except you can sell the joker to continue and/or use like a strength or something
could bypass that by getting rid of "cannot be played" since there's not much of on-score jack synergy anyway

I’m not a fan of this many retriggers but also the theming, it feels like it only thematically exists because of Hit The Road

kind of a play on the fact you can't get rid of the things
retriggers are not actually that many, even with both paints it's at best 5x5
and keep in mind that it gets progressively harder to pull a good hand the more jacks you have in hand

Kinda crazy to say it’s not that many when the most a single joker can give is 5, if we consider this with something like Idol, Trib, or glass cards giving a 2x multiplier it’s literally night and day
And yeah it’s pretty unlikely you get this combo, but I don’t like it being possible at all

idk, IMO it could be an interesting risk/reward scenario and a good endless alternative to a typical baron/mime build. Second key part is the fact that keeping >5 jacks would be dangerous, and otherwise you'd have to thin the deck pretty aggressively to get reliable scoring out of it.
plus the absurd amount of retriggers could possibly amortize accidentally pulling 4 jacks with default deck and throwing because of that
