3. Discard – Place your played card into the Discard Pile.
4. End Turn – The next player takes their turn.

Winning the Game

• The first player to reach 50 KP wins.
• If all opponents are eliminated (HP reaches 0), the last player standing wins.

Strategy Tips

• Balance Attack & Defense: Don’t just attack—defend with Spades to avoid losing HP too quickly.
• Save Aces for Critical Moments: Aces are game-changers, so use them wisely.
• Target the Strongest Player: If someone is close to 50 KP, team up to stop them!
