has specifically stated that he will never allow casinos to use balatro
yea
pretty sure he even wrote that in his will
Understandable
mathematicians are the last people who would enter a casino unless if they have a way to trick the casino/bring the odds to their favor
like card counting
so goated
KITTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want to get a cat soon
I have 7 more
O MY GOD
But because I'm lazy I'm not gonna send all pictures of wm
Just the grownups
It's 4 grownups 4 babies in my household
they’re so cute
I order from first sent to last sent: Pooky, Blue, Taiyō and Dizzy
Guess which one of em is male
Yep
haha first try
He's the only guy in there
Other than me :S
So from a guy to another
We understand eachother
such a strong bond I bet
Was this a good decision to get the polychrome showman first ante?
Showman is the worst joker in the game
It's prolly a worst decision
just take the xmult bro 🥀
did you skip a blind for a polychrome tag for this?
I lost because they had shit jokers in the shop
It was a spectral
oh
Xmult is xmult
Faceless deck isn't as hard as people say
It's accualy pretty easy because the deck is thinned
I got a win on it earlier
I just went for a lucky card deck fix retrigger strat
and I got lucky with an idol so
People know it's good
It's going to be even better after blue stake change
hello gamers
new around here, just downloaded the game last night
im hooked to say the least
With 2 cards removed, you are going to be able to see every card in your deck, which means guaranteed 4oak
The Hook (randomly discard 2 cards per played hand) you say?
what change
xdd
idk
Yes, -1 discard but we don't know what to
LMAO i guess so haha
Am I dead
hmmm could be anything tbf
cooked
why would you skip the big blind oml
xdddddddd
i rarely skip blinds i mostly forget they exist
do you have glass
Like 2
usually the offers dont appeal to me
But my hand size is 5
oh
Yeah
two ectos moment
high card level?
yeah i really dont skip blinds ever i forget i can and then it ruins runs because you can get really gud cards from them
or money
face card build running into a late plant can usualyl be gg
Awful, I was building up stuff for the long game
I mean
white stake
Oh didn't notice that
true that it cooked me a few times
IM GOD AT BALATRODLE
still in the learning phase
I mean most of the time you don't take skips later on
it always cooks me when doing black stake specifically
i feel you 😩
but then my brain is like “play again”
black stake skips early are kinda goated tbf
like I'll only take a skip in ante 8 if I'm already scoring enough to win easily
was in physics, we have a quiz tomorrow, 2 of my friends in the front row are playing Balatro lmao
💀
i ain’t even made it to ante 8 yet
i gotta get good
😭
im terrible with games like this but im sticking it through
i’d blame it and say it’s luck based but nah my brain just doesn’t compute sometimes
then i place my hand and see a better hand i could be played
i think my highest ante has to be 19
*couldve
wtf
anybody have best joker ranking or tier list ?
i gotta look into them
also i may add the ante 19 run was seeded or 3 legendarys early on
oh bruh
best unseeded is like 15
not as goated
34 WHAT ARE YOU DOING
what seeds are you playing
isnt that near naninf ante
the one with negative perkeo and trib
lol
thats broken, especially with ob
I took 2 rare skips today
Gambling my beloved
both were brainstorm
and this is why dev didnt put micro transactions 🙏
yes
Tf are the microtransactions for
yeah what would you even buy
Buy jimbos
a cup of water and ramen
nah that would ruin the game
imagine if there was lootboxes tho for joker cards, thats what i meant
instead of grinding in game for shit it was money based
totally woulda caused some lawsuits
dev was smart
this is like normal roguelike design lol
But there are so many uncommon Xmult scaling jokers 😭
because I'm missing some random joker somehow
LOL
THE COST BRUH
that's true
This is why Obelisk is the best first guess
huh
By pulling up the balatro wiki
Was your first guess ||hologram?||
any ideas? its not madness
not leaking
Spoiler :(
It answers every category as clearly as possible
Bro it COSTS MORE
oh
legit who is remembering the joker costs though
High cost, rare, common ability, yes to scaling and no to rng is alot of information
how am i supposed to remember all the costs? noone does that
it's uncommon not rare
oh
you mean obelisk
The idol?
You fool
I am no one then
There is only one uncommon x mult that costs more than 7
Oh wait, flower pot?
the last 2 are literally things every joker has lol
Scaling = the number on the card changes
Hey chat
acrobatics doesnt scales its just conditional 3x
Right
Wdym
It still helps narrow it down
you can figure out if its scaling or rng dependent with the first joker you guess no matter what
joker stencil is considered as scaling? ig yea
K
Why is obelisk so hated
tho if you get eternal stencil and ecto with ankh it goes brr
Because people are stupid
Stencil naneinf has been done
it's x^x scaling
Thats not what scaling means
Just a hard joker to use
you have to think too much
???

thats unscaling
its hard to make sure number doesnt exceed another number
Childhood is idolizing flush
Adulthood is realizing full house makes more sense
wrong
Yeah
currently preteening
so then why did you say that's not what scaling means
I said how it scales
it scales at x^x
ah yes my ramen scaled to 1,9x from 2x👍
In earlier antes it is, Obelisk is much better as a transitional joker than starting out with it
if the value on the card changes, it's scaling. using balatrodle logic.
Because you said it is scaling because it can be stacked with other joker stencils
That isn't what I said
alr, joker is joker
I said how it scales
why full house
I saw the message you were responding to wrong
My bad
it's annoying to play wiht
but it's good though imo
It's good
full houses also scale badly
Full houses decent with glask
+2 +25 is only 5 chips better than venus for an extra two cards
I mean
But you want to be using a lot of enchanced cards for full houses
Venus/3oak better if you can get more steel value
Which is why you should always go for straights of course
Lmao
Best hand in the game is straight flush fs
I swear 5 card hands just lose the game sometimes
Nah high card
every hand loses the game sometimes
I like it when people don't understand sarcasm
is there a theoretically an ''impossible'' seed on gold stake?
true
maybe?
No
not yet
on black deck surely there is right
not yet
hm
we haven't found an unbeatable seed
(I'm coping)
with my skill every seed is
😭
There's the chance a seed provides no hands with enough points for the first 3 rounds
This is why they need to change blue stake
But that's like very small odds
full house tax 💀
maybe erratic deck with only 2's? tho thas would be flush five
you almost got it!
if you knew what cards and what order they were given I think you can always find some sort of scoring hand surely
I never even got a reroll boss thingy
Luck issue
I had triboulet and sock and buskin as well
do you want nat negative splash in the first shop?
wonder if splash is actually good
rarely
I thought splash was great until I realized it's almost always better to just go for steel cards
well my stomach is screaming ill get some food
it’s better to deck fix for steel cards than use splash
If your going for a hand that splash is useful on, it's better to just get tons of steels
bwuh?
hi
depends on what you’re going for
This is genius because whenever I get banana it never goes extinct
LOL
what's a good deck to play to get c++ guys
like how do you get stickers on those commons that are like
(+12 mult on straight)
or smth
Anaglyph by far
Negatives
what is balatro
Although I had 3 wins the other day in a row without a single negative tag
Sometimes one will randomly show in the show as a negative and I'll pick it up because why not
😭
This is probably funny as hell
It died next round
Carry it with jokers that do the heavy lifting
chips go brrrrrrr
basically goes
When people say they play games for the story
Jarvis put up Balatro
wonder if ghost would be good then since I can just polychrome some random jimbo
wait 1 sticker per run sounds doomed
Should mail in rebate become an uncommon joker?
No, it needs to not give 5 dollars 
doesn't fix the problem, just revert it to $3
especially with the blue stake rework lol
when you ask to Jarvis to put the best game oat
4$ as a middle ground
Rarity changes don't fix many issues
Heismay!
what even is the rework
Like making chad uncommon doesn't stop it from being hella strong
And only makes it stronger cause now it works with baseball card lmfao
it was fine at $3, also it's innately stronger because of the blue stake rework
the point is to not homogenize runs to the same extent as it does
Get outta here with this ai garbo
Sock and buskin is uncommon idk why hanging Chad isnt
Because sock is 5 retrigger for faces
Chad is 2 for any first card
It just so happens that retriggering the first card means you get to giga juice with photo and glass
like, lots of uncommons are stronger than chad and even fit on more builds than chad, but their rarity keeps them balanced
Change Chad to retrigger 3 times and it would be a great uncommon
it keeps runs from getting samey yk
And now it's EVEN STRONGER for no reason
Nerf it to retrigger 1st and 2nd card once
this would just make photochad builds insanely strong
Now photo chad isn't giga broken
not even just photochad but just glass cards
wouldn’t death just make this like irrelevant
No because photo only works on 1st card
And it means you need 2 cards instead of just 1 giga card
yes, you have to deckfix to make the most use out of your cards. this is healthy
You need 2 glass to have the same effect as pre nerf
Which means double the chance of breaking
No idea the local Thunk "Balatro" John hasn't said everything about it
But here in the server he recently said it is gonna get reworked to not being just -1 discard
I see
Expect it to be something that isn't ultra bullshit and not completely luck-based
if that were the case I’d probably switch to a lucky card and steel card deck fix
It doesn't completely kill photochad, since having a 4x is still strong
And you can use 2 glass to get a similar effect
But it does make it not op
All without giving it baseball synergy by making it uncommon
I think it’s just fine as it is, considering there’s multiple ways to just already get xmult in the first place
don’t get me wrong I don’t even use photochad but hey whatever floats
There isn't many ways to get 8x this easily
photochad isn't really the problem, it's ANY synergy with chad
yea
No I know
It's just the most common one
chad going from first card twice -> first two cards once would nerf the main appeal of chad
Doesn't retriggering with Buskin also Retrigger Chad?
any retrigger would be better
which is easy retriggers without needing multiple of a card with that effect
How long am I gonna be confused about this topic dawg
not really
im glad im playing colored deck
First I didn't believe it and then I believed in misinformation
You can't even afford it bro
it doesn't pick from your deck
exactly thats why im glad
But I never got it
So I'm wondering "Bruhggh gimme Tribe already"
Turns out it's unlock condition is win without playing a flush
yall get good jokers?
I'm just that addicted to Flushes
🙏
real just level up two pair thats how i did mine
You don't understand bro
There's a literal full house
I discarded and still went for a Flush
And no not cause my build was fixated on Flushes
I cannot live without playing Flushes anymore
certified flush enjoyer
average flusher
straight up flushing my hearts
I have no idea how people can play Straights without Shortcut
Like
I cannot Straight for the life of me
This isn't a gay joke I'm not gay
Let me get my stats rq
abandoned deck is good for straights
No stat for most played hands
that doesnt really matter tho i skip the blinda half the time (given the boss is tolerable w/o any jonklers)
💔
I'm blind
its tracked at least
girlie how do you make money 😭
Also it's Flush at a very respectable
Yeah but not shown, goober
just not displayed. only your most played is displayed
5789
if you upload your profile.jkr to balatrostats you can see
flouse is my lowest
Effort
Ew
wah wah wah 🐈
i think flush is still mine due to me beinf obsessed with it when beginning and using it early game 🐈

Flush is goated though
Effort is wack
although mercury is far above jupiter 🐈
Yellow Deck, Green Deck
Blue seal my beloved
It's a reliable 1 hand clear for round 1 if you roll some faces
yeah, round 1
So is full house and straight
flush falls off over time 🐈
And full house isn't super duper easy to get
like obviously you dont play pairs or anything at the start but then later on you pivot to those easier hands
like usually by ante 2 or 3
Too bad I play Checkered
bad palye here, which planet cards should i go with the most?
flush five (joke)
Gotta be real bro probably Saturn
It scales better than Jupiter
Saturn is Straight btw
mercury 🐈
what about pluto?
too risky
sometimes i do high card or two pair cause the game gives me those planets 🐈
Just take mars every time and force the 4oak pivot
oak tree
Actually just pick a planet for a hand you aren't playing to prep for the obelisk pivot
when i get planet cards ill just stay on the screen for 20 minutes as i contemplate the build and which planet cards would help me the most
i think thats the play
Me on my way to farm Saturns cause I was told it scales better than Jupiter (I have a two pair build)
if all else fails, fuck it we ball pluto
or just keep restarting until you get negative blueprint from buffoon pack
Oh you mean for early game
Saturn and Jupiter yeah I'd take personally
Flushes and Straights are kinda everywhere
one of a kind tree
They're not ultraduper hard to get like 5oaks or 4oaks or god forbid flush houses
early game i takw mercurys to get the pair pivot going asap 🐈
hear me out...straight flush
If you're not stupid and have Economy you won't need to worry about min maxing 6 more mult
i think joker (joker)'s +4 mult just makes you insta win
?
what
ONCE i tried royal flush build, well it did won i think but i was keep getting just straights
I'm saying you should focus on early game first
i want pair to be online asap since its the most consistent
It's not ultra hard to get like lvl 20
yeah its very hard to get those type of builds
You don't know if you're gonna flop or actually win so I personally don't like to focus on setting up for a pivot late game
yeah ur not taking planets in the early game you're taking jokers
i like deers
And normal packs (trust)
its not a lategame pivot you can get pairs online by like ante 2 girlie
You had it right the first time, the plural of deer is deer
i mean with early green joker youll be playing pairs anyways ante 1
i keep leveling up high card JUST in case of a baron pivot
the times i got baron i made stupid decisions and subsequently lost the run
I sleep walk through Ante 2
now i dont get barons anymore
i sleep walk until ante 6
I don't get Barons
im mindblocked in ante 6
I get game over screens
what tags am i missing
most of my runs in ante 6 i decide to throw away my good jokers, open a buffoon pack and stare at my screen in despair as i see zany joker and oops all 6s
unlocking everything before i grind all the stakes and decks
ceres
oh yeah i should go for completion on the very small ones
ive completed tarot, planet and spectral are left
and i have like more than half of the tags left
i thnk i have like 5
handsize, $1 per played hand , double money
yes it will
yep it will
Also who's the real John Balatro
good luck thunk
You gold sticker all the decks yet?
Yep!
Hell yeah
good question!
hello all
I have 2 achievements left, C++ and tiny hands
I have gold staked a total of two decks . 🥲
I still need to UNLOCK some vouchers… and also find yorick
good job
Somehow I have not found yorick yet
just a bit more grinding
i havent found any legendary jokers yet lmao
handy and two other ones im forgetting
after getting completionist and starting over i'm realizing how good some locked jokers are
like brainstorm and invis
early trading card is good
also sixth sense helps a lot
Perkeo didn’t show up for me until after I got completionist+, now he’s gold stickered for me
localthunk found alive
wow
perkeo is the key to tiny hands i think
don't forget seeing double and hit the road!!!
how do i unlock seeing double
okay but seeing double is genuinely good and me not unlocking it is a nerf for my runs
play 4 7s of clubs
damn
i unlocked a legendary joker by selling the card which gives a legendary joker. i think thats the only way ill get the legendary ones bro 💀
i should just
play more actually
nan just shit on my floor
nan einf?
you unlock them by using the soul cards in that run
how do you sell a soul card? i dont think you can get it in your consumeable slot
wait no
it wasnt a soul card
it was a joker i think
"sell this card to create a legendary joker"
i dont use mods except saturn
There's no card taht you sell to make a legendary
S club 7’s 4th studio album is called “seeing double”
S club 7 -> 7 of clubs
Seeing double -> X2 mult
There's invis joker that makes a copy
?
but nothing spawns a legendary by being sold
isnt saturn just a QOL mod i didnt think that it actually changes the game
does it look like this
i dont play modded
ive seen this card before but i dont think so
i do
ok bro im stupid it was a soul card

the real john balatro is jimbo
How unlucky are you dude
No I'm the real John Balatro
Then that's a skill issue
no you're not i am 💢
And before you say it's luck

Eyernal
madness can't eat eternals
Eternal
blind and dummy
I mean yeah it's good ngl

i hate you all
sounds like a skill issue tbh
i thought you would stop me but youre just like me
ALL
IN
GAMBALATRO FOR A REASON
Actually wait
Since you oh so like this run
Don't go all in yet
When you win
Use seeded and THEN gamble everything
i just didnt gamble hard enough
You didn't go all in
real gamblers reroll until their money is 0
Yeah gamble your soul too
my god
And your mom's soul (JoJo reference)
Hanging C
guys does anyone have the brainstorm mod
c for cirno
I'm scared that Cirno is apparently smart compared to other fairies
Ask her to spell orange and she'll ask color or the fruit
SMART???
nahh
what are the other fairies on bro
Not enough Milk
true
If you wanna win Balatro all you have to do is drink milk through a toilet paper tube
anyway my daily dose of gambling discord is over. i will return and do a TINY bit more gambling tomorrow
Gamble high FAKE John "Erm watesigma" Balatro
winning balatro has one solution which is ALL. IN.
$5 left? Reroll.
and yet the one guy who has a 60+ win streak is not all in
4$? Use the Buffoon Pack and get Credit Card and keep rerolling.
the brothers (should i replace acrobat? i need xmult)
Yeah
are you playing heart flushes
Oh yeah that goi
replace blueprint. its an ass joker bro how can people call it good
/j
Ig
well
if you're not playing flushes
keep acro
Replace ALL of them
balatro time
and just blueprint it for 9x mult 
Not playing Flushes??? Incredulous!
gn @acoustic jolt
also pretty sure i forgot about my goal and skipped midas mask
I got Golden Ticket accidentally
And then immediately found him
THIS is how you win gold stake (polychrome hanging chad in ante 1 is just the way
Gn bro
I had the ultimate money run bro
I think I had Sock and Buskin too lmao
guys other then flush five and flush house what other secret hands are there
because im missing 1 planet card
Five of a kind
oh thx
because it's straight flush
I forgot to copy it i alr lost
💔
Had 3 poly ancients and the bs
Where'd you lose
Ante 12 was a huge jump
A bad Boss Blind?
Mf baron and the pair
o ma gah
Obelisk wouldve been better
The duality of a man
gay lovers
i just got negative hanging chad
i played this game for 8 hours yesterday...adhd's hyperfocus mixed into this game is dangerous haha
pls photograph
i got violet vessel im so fucking done
yup
Us
unlikely
Aww
- I have no gender so i can't be gay
- i'm taken
holy shit
cartomancer gave me devil
2 times in a row
if i dont get golden ticket this run
i will be sad
theyre so cute
lol
i finally did it twin
oh no
glass cards are peak
pray, bojimbo
am i cooked
how many score do u need
dang
do i go straight flush
or flush
i've played flush more
and i have supernova
flush would be +28 mult
you could tell localthunk to bless you
bless up, fam
She local on my thunk until I balatro
i was fine
i underestimated constellation
mmmmm do i use petroglyph
i only have 3 discards
and i haven't done much deck stuff
23 clubs out of 54
is it worth it
With multiple bananas, do they all always get eaten at the same time? Or did I just get very unlucky?
Unlucky
😭
very unlucky
Which banana was it
Because losing multiple cavendish at once means you should hit the casinos
holy crap my luck is so bad
Watch him say Gros Michel
me when i get ran over by an 18 wheeler on a school road
Gang ion think this is a luck-based roll
Nat 1
im supposed to get golden ticket rahhh
You just got a nat 1
gonna turn you into a luck-based roll
what was the most annoying joker for yall to unlock
Same thought lmfao
My existence is already luck based
spring roll lookin' mf
Bro chose violence
Five of a kind is a really good hand in the late game if you get lucky enough
lol violet vessel on ante 7 is cursed
Oh yeah and then there's flush house which is extremely rare
Unless you buy standard packs a lot
(Unlike me)
just skip to flush five or stick to 4oak
5oak is wack
a few runs ago i had a flush house combo going
i just had a lot of spades face cards
sure it has higher base score
but scaling is similar af and 5oak is less consistent 
and switching to flush five that late wouldve lost me the game
because i had like level 11 flush house
Yeah unfortunately I don't get many extra cards from standard packs
golden ticket time :D
If I get lucky enough I use some of the tarot that can change the suits of cards
i havent
All I have left is the decks
I did also unlock challenges today
I was in the final boss of the rich get richer challenge
And for some reason my cards got +0 chips??
So i just lost the final boss
uh
Small or big?
localhunk 
hows jonkler collection going
LOCALTHUNK???
126/150 holy just had a run where all 5 got gold stickers
im gonna try to beat you to 150 jonklers
im at 140/150 so final stretch but i dont have that much time to grind
localthunk you are holy the second you sent a message i started getting jupiters again
IN THE FLESH?!?
no, on the discord
My last run I had flush level 26
after not getting any for 4 antes 😭
damn
So may your runs be blessed with Jupiter
thank you localthunk 🙏
well maybe if you made more jokers for straight flushes 
Nah it’s a deck fixing issue
the blue seal experience
we saw how well seance worked out
As the run saving Baseball fodder
its just hard to make decks that consistently give you straight flushes
This makes me want to try the challenge again
i added a photochad to my jonklers
Yo Localthunk, what's your favorite color?
Yeah by the time you have consistent straight flushes it’s pretty late into the run
i like neptune
i love constellation so much
i use it occasionally
its at x6 mult
fr
i agree
diamond rain 
My favorite planet in bala is Uranus
yo, someone want to watch me play and help me with the game? (Im a beginer)
what other jokers can i even go for this run
holy shit john gambling
discard five jacks at the same time i can probably do
i think uranus is neptune but cooler
i need deaths now
arghhh verdant leaf
i can probably survive this with minimal +mult
Holy shit John Balatro
Two Pair is my most common hand
Nah Saturn beats it
A never ending storm is so cool
No planet beats that
jupiter <<<<< saturn
both are cool
Saturn has a literal hexagon in its north pole
