Round 2 - The Bargain
The first player in this turn is randomly selected by the system. Subsequent players take their turn in a clockwise direction.
Purpose: Increase interaction, disruption, and psychological pressure by combining controlled information sharing with direct joker effects.
Each player has up to 90 seconds to choose one of the following actions:
A) Discard & Buy
(Same mechanics as Round 1)
Discard 1 hero card from your hand to the Open Pool.
Discarded cards are placed face up and are visible to all players.
After discarding, choose one of the following:
Select 1 hero card from the Open Pool, or
Draw 1 random hero card from the Hidden Pool.
The card you acquire is placed face up and is publicly visible.
The discarded hero adds its full star value to your Star Bank.
B) Use Your Joker
Activate exactly one Joker effect.
Resolve the chosen joker action immediately.
For details on available joker actions and their effects, see the Joker section.
C) Pass
Take no action.
Your hand and star bank remain unchanged.
Strategic Note
Round 2 builds on the foundations of Round 1, but with higher stakes. Players can:
Continue optimizing their hand while feeding their Star Bank,
Apply pressure or disrupt opponents using Joker actions, or
Observe the table and conserve resources for later rounds.
