Rating & Analysis
Four Fingers is a game-changing passive Joker — Flushes and Straights now form with only 4 cards instead of 5. At $7 Uncommon, it underpins virtually every Flush-axis build by drastically raising hand-completion rates. Notably, Flush Houses and Straight Flushes can be hit with just 5 played cards (4-card flush + 1 free pair-piece for Flush House).
The dream pairing is Checkered Deck + The Tribe (x2 Mult Flush) + The Virgo for the Flush trio. Checkered Deck is 26 Spades + 26 Hearts, exploding Flush rates; Four Fingers compounds with 4-card hits. Combine with Smeared Joker (suits collapse to one) for effectively constant Flushes.
Straight-axis is just as strong: Shortcut (skip-rank straights) + Four Fingers lets you spam 4-card skip Straights. Pair with The Order (x3 Mult Straight) to max output. Tier lists rate Four Fingers S overall, SS in Flush/Straight builds. Mandatory pickup at $7.
