Gambler

The Gambler crosses the line of cunning strategist and lucky miscreant. Gambler's are good at using what they have to get them what they want, using a bit a magic to get there of course. Choosing your best move and hoping for the best is what a Gambler is about. 

Playing Pieces

3rd-level Gambler feature

You can take your favorite gaming pieces, and use them as weapons. Whenever you take the Attack action, you can throw a piece from your hand. This magic piece is a simple melee weapon with the finesse and thrown properties. It has a normal range of 10 feet and a long range of 60 feet, and on a hit, it deals a damage type of the piece equal to 1d6 plus the ability modifier you used for the attack roll. The piece vanishes back into your deck immediately after it hits or misses its target, and it leaves no mark on its target if it deals damage. You start with being able to hold three pieces in one hand.

At 3rd level, you can hold up to three pieces in your hand. At 9th level, you can four. At 14th level, you can up to five in your hand.

As a bonus action, you can draw back up to three pieces in one free hand.

House's edge

9th-level Gambler feature

You gain the ability to pull luck onto your side to make the playing field even. If a creature has advantage on any roll against you, you can use an action to negate the advantage. Similarly, if you have disadvantage on a roll against a creature, you can negate that disadvantage.
At 9th level you can do this equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.

Double - Down. As an bonus action, you can combine and tap two cards in your hand. You can use one of the effects associated with one of the tapped cards, shown on the Tymora's table, on a creature within 60ft of range. You can do this action as many times equal to your Charisma modifier. 

Raise. As an action, you can throw all drawn cards as one singular attack at a creature in range. The attack is automatically made at disadvantage, but does max damage if it hits. You also get to choose one affect of the cards you threw to activate. You can do this twice per long rest.  At 17th level, you can do this three times per long rest.
