Ancient Joker
Rare x_mult
"Each played card with [suit] gives X1.5 Mult when scored, suit changes at end of round"
# Is this Joker Worth It?
✅ Best Use Case
Synergy Piece: Strongest when paired with re-trigger effects.
🛑 When to Skip
Do not buy early if your base Mult is low (<10).
⚠️ Common Mistake
"Slot locking. Refusing to sell this for a better Joker when it appears in the shop."
Ancient Joker multiplies by X1.5 per card of a rotating suit (changes end of round). Requires pure-suit plays; weak in mixed runs. Pick if you're already forcing single-suit builds with Four Fingers or Smeared Joker.
