# X-Playing Cards and X-Playing Deck
Once you install the mod, you will see a new deck called *X-Playing Deck*, this deck will have **52 X-Playing Cards** and a Legendary Joker at the beginning of the run:
**X-Playing Card** will transform into a **special joker** once you play and score it as **High Card** as your **first hand of the round**.
At the end of the round, it will **transform** back to the **X-Playing Card** so you can decide to PLAY something else next round! (with a few exceptions!)
**X-Playing Joker** on the other hand will convert regular playing cards into **X-Playing Cards** when needed!
# Currently Supported X-Playing Cards (52 / 52)
You can discover their amazing abilities in collection tab once you install the mod or on the mod website [here](https://www.balatrohighcardmod.com/)! More X-Playing Cards and X-hands are WIP!
