I got this playing Jester, Episode 1. I found the finale card "Encore" pretty early on in a treasure chest, which allows you to take an extra turn if you play through your whole deck in one turn. I upgraded it to only cost a value of six instead of 12 as soon as I could, and this is important because unlike some of the other cards, you can't feed dice into it for the next turn. You have to play through your whole deck AND put enough dice into Encore on the same turn. The good news is once Encore is on your screen, you don't have to play the couple of cards that immediately precede it.
In addition to upgrading Encore, I also deleted a few cards from my deck in the cart shop. I took the Witch card when offered, as it discards your current hand. Then I was mindful of lining up my plays so I could "Snap" through as many cards as possible using my Limit Break. I popped the achievement on Floor 4 versus the Keymaster.

As an additional note to this, you only get one Finale card per run, so don't skip it trying to find something better.

I got Dice Cannon (1 dmg, reusable, no countdown) on Episode 1, Floor 2. My card count was low enough to get through the deck and use it pretty quickly on my first encounter on Floor 3.

Jester-specific Achievement
With the Jester, if playing normal Rounds such as Round 1, you'll find a brown Finale card in either a chest or shop on the first two Floors. How it works is that it's always on the bottom of your deck. To reach it, you need to get through your entire deck on a single turn, then still have enough dice left to actually use the Finale card. This will likely seem impossible at first, but it is possible with some work.
Alternatively, before I get into the harder method, I recommend doing this in the Jester's Hard Mode Round 6. You start with a Finale card rather than needing to find one, and it has no countdown (literally a single dice of any roll will activate it). Since you have it from the start, your deck is also small. Discard duplicates and you should have no problems reaching your Finale card and using it. I did this at least three or four times on my Hard Mode run without even trying for it.
On any other mode, you can improve your chances of getting to your Finale card in a few ways.
Here's a clip of me using my Finale card twice in one turn. This is in Hard Mode Round 6 where the Finale card doesn't have a countdown, and this is against the boss of the run.

- Wait until you level up more so you have more dice
- Use shops to destroy cards in your deck
- Keep duplicates so you can discard them to go through faster. Minimize the amount of singles you have
- Prioritize cards that give you a new dice after using, or ones that duplicate or split your dice
- Get the Hall of Mirrors card if you see it, and duplicate it with a blueprint if you can
