'''DoubleJack''' is a [[Big Money]] strategy which involves buying two copies of {{Card|Jack of all Trades}} and little else. It is the only Big Money strategy that shrugs off many [[Attack]]s: the fact that Jack gains you {{Card|Silver}} is what makes it fast, faster than {{Card|Smithy}} or {{Card|Envoy}}; and the rest of Jack's properties defend against the Attack.

It is not unbeatable; Jack+[[Witch]], for example, has an edge against simple DoubleJack, and [[engine]]s which consistently play an Attack every turn will be able to thwart Jack's defense. However, it does mean that you have to carefully consider how quickly your engine will be able to become consistent, since if the attack is played less consistently, DoubleJack will shrug it off with ease.

'''DoubleJack''' is a [[Big Money]] strategy which involves buying two copies of {{Card|Jack of all Trades}} and no other [[kingdom card|kingdom cards]]. It is the only Big Money strategy that shrugs off many [[attack|attacks]]: the [[Terminal draw#Targeted handsize|draw-to-X]] feature nullifies [[discard attack|discard attacks]], and the [[trasher|trashing]] ability defends against [[curser|cursing]] and most [[junker|junking]] attacks. The fact that Jack gains you {{Card|Silver}} is what makes it fast, faster than {{Card|Smithy}} or {{Card|Envoy}}.

DoubleJack is one of several strategies whose true power was not really known until the [[Dominion_simulators|simulator]] data enlightened the community.
