How players use it
- King of Progress Recycler plan (Aevean): the Recycler gives adjacent plots +2% damage and HP per level each time a card goes into the pit. Aevean calls its perk very strong and uses Recyclers to scale the Mothership base, which was buffed before 1.0. Trashy adds a Trash card per Recycler placed.
How to get it
- In the King of Progress's 9-card deck: a run as this king can start with it, and losing a battle offers cards from your own deck.
- Loot after beating the King of Progress in battle when that king is one of your enemies.
- Merchant: Jack of Structures (buildings, towers and bases).
- Joker mode: pick it for a custom deck.
