Mystic Summit is a Common additive Mult Joker that gives you +15 Mult when you have 0 discards, either by using them all or through other means (such as Jokers like Burglar (When [[Blind|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, gain {{hl|blue|+3}} Hands and {{hl|orange|lose all discards}} Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Burglar.png)).

In general, Mystic Summit can be useful in the early game during Ante 1 or 2, but its inability to scale makes it less useful in later Antes, and it will likely be replaced as other better Jokers are found.

• Blue Deck ( {{hl|blue|+1}} hand every round Discover at least {{hl|orange|20}} items from your [[collection]] Blue Deck.png) lessens the consequences of using up all your discards by giving an extra hand.

The strongest Joker for Mystic Summit is Burglar (When [[Blind|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, gain {{hl|blue|+3}} Hands and {{hl|orange|lose all discards}} Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Burglar.png), which trades all your discards for +3 hands. This allows Mystic Summit to be in effect as soon as you start playing.

If the player is able to find Yorick (This Joker gains {{xmult|1}} every {{hl|orange|23}} {{hl|gray|[23]}} cards discarded<br>{{currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Find this [[Jokers|Joker]] from the [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Soul}}]] card.

In addition, Mystic Summit provides +Mult to be boosted by Yorick's XMult

• Petroglyph ({{hl|orange|-1}} Ante, <br> {{hl|red|-1}} discard each round Reach Ante 12 Upgraded Petroglyph.png) causes the player to lose -1 discard, making Mystic Summit easier to activate.

• The Water ( Boss The Water.png): This blind synergizes with Mystic Summit as the 0 discard condition means Mystic Summit will be automatically activated.

• Blue Stake and above removes a discard, making Mystic Summit easier to activate.

• Mystic Summit has anti-synergy with the Green Deck ( At end of each Round: <br> {{Money|2}} per remaining {{hl|blue|Hand}} <br> {{Money|1}} per remaining {{hl|red|Discard}} <br> Earn no {{hl|orange|Interest}} Discover at least {{hl|orange|75}} items from your [[collection]] Green Deck.png), since one of the ways to get money with the Green Deck is to retain discards, and Mystic Summit is only effective when all discards are gone.

• Green Joker ({{mult|+1}} per hand played <br> {{mult|-1}} per discard <br> {{Currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Common Additive Mult Mixed Green_Joker.png) is likely a bad choice with Mystic Summit, due to having to spend discards to have both active. This can be mitigated with Burglar (When [[Blind|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, gain {{hl|blue|+3}} Hands and {{hl|orange|lose all discards}} Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Burglar.png) but as this combo requires three Jokers it may be best to ignore it.
  • Similarly, Ramen ({{xmult|2}}, loses {{xmult|0.01}} per {{hl|orange|card}} discarded Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Mixed Ramen.png) has anti-synergy with Mystic Summit unless the player has Burglar (When [[Blind|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, gain {{hl|blue|+3}} Hands and {{hl|orange|lose all discards}} Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Burglar.png).
• Any Joker that benefits from retaining discards, such as Banner ({{Chips|+30}} for each remaining {{hl|orange|discard}} Common Chips Independent Banner.png) or Delayed Gratification (Earn {{Money|2}} per {{hl|orange|discard}} if no discards are used by end of the round Common Economy N/A (Passive) Delayed_Gratification.png) are not a good combination with Mystic Summit.
• Drunkard ({{hl|red|+1}} discard each round Common Effect N/A (Passive) Drunkard.png) and Merry Andy ({{hl|red|+3}} discards each round, <br>{{hl|red|-1}} hand size Win a run in {{hl|orange|12}} or fewer rounds Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Merry_Andy.png) give extra discards, which makes Mystic Summit harder to activate.

• According to LocalThunk, Mystic Summit requires the player to use all discards and play what they have, because it is similar to how there's nowhere left to go on top of a summit.^[1]
