Something to keep in mind ...

For those who, like me, sometimes get frustrated with the RNG-heavy nature of Hearts' Game (most recently, while trying to draft a team for the Distinction of Pages, I kept getting a hand with only Knights/Kings to choose from):

If you're chasing Distinctions, it's probably because you want the <a href="/wiki/A_nod_from_Mr_Hearts" title="A nod from Mr Hearts"><img alt="" src="/w/images/thumb/6/6b/Master.png/20px-Master.png" decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="20" height="26" srcset="/w/images/thumb/6/6b/Master.png/30px-Master.png 1.5x, /w/images/thumb/6/6b/Master.png/40px-Master.png 2x" /></a> <a href="/wiki/A_nod_from_Mr_Hearts" title="A nod from Mr Hearts">three</a> <a href="/wiki/The_blood-coloured_sapling" title="The blood-coloured sapling"><img alt="" src="/w/images/thumb/a/a6/Heartfruit.png/20px-Heartfruit.png" decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="20" height="26" srcset="/w/images/thumb/a/a6/Heartfruit.png/30px-Heartfruit.png 1.5x, /w/images/thumb/a/a6/Heartfruit.png/40px-Heartfruit.png 2x" /></a> <a href="/wiki/The_blood-coloured_sapling" title="The blood-coloured sapling">capstone</a> <a href="/wiki/The_book_in_charred_and_blackened_leather" title="The book in charred and blackened leather"><img alt="" src="/w/images/thumb/2/29/Bookblack.png/20px-Bookblack.png" decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="20" height="26" srcset="/w/images/thumb/2/29/Bookblack.png/30px-Bookblack.png 1.5x, /w/images/thumb/2/29/Bookblack.png/40px-Bookblack.png 2x" /></a> <a href="/wiki/The_book_in_charred_and_blackened_leather" title="The book in charred and blackened leather">rewards</a> – which also require a total of 1500 Exploits. So even if a streak of bad luck means you fail to get a Distinction during a particular run, you're still making progress on Exploits, and it'll be a long time before any of those actions is truly "wasted". :⁠-⁠)
