#

This much dmg in one hit am I able to beat the boss

elfin tapir
#

sorry yap mode is on

quaint moss
#

holy shit the most clapped roster in history

crisp smelt
quaint moss
#

xmult....a dream of generations past

#

you gotta x your mult man

#

brainstorm doesn't copy editions

#

so it's only getting the chips from the joker itself

#

you should copy abstract here if anything

umbral hazel
#

I'm jonkling 🙈

worldly basalt
#

Aren’t more chips important

quaint moss
#

not really!

worldly basalt
#

Oh

quaint moss
#

if you have 100 chips in your hand

#

and 10 mult

#

10 mult does the same as 100 chips

#

and 100 chips is much harder to get

#

like from jokers

#

usually the best play is to just get your base mult from levels after the early antes

worldly basalt
#

So do I put abstract in front and devious second

quaint moss
#

and xmult that

#

abstract should b at 15 right

worldly basalt
#

Yeah

quaint moss
#

since brainstorm doesnt copy the 10 from the holo edition it is objectively better

#

to copy abstract

#

but in next shop you really gotta roll for any kind of xmult

#

that you can actually utilize

worldly basalt
#

Sorry I am new to the game

quaint moss
#

like

#

mult your mult

#

you gotta multi the multilier

worldly basalt
#

Doesn’t brainstorm do that

quaint moss
#

you have a joker that gives you a flat 10x mult

worldly basalt
quaint moss
#

nah that's 14

worldly basalt
#

Oh

#

Mb

quaint moss
#

and if you copy it with the brainstorm that's 24

wary sorrel
#

Balatro balatrin

quaint moss
#

but if you mult the mult instead you can beat it with just a 4x mult joker

#

wow this sounds fucking unintelligble

wary sorrel
quaint moss
#

holy shit

#

ok wait im off 3 beers and funkytown has been playing on loop for this many seconds

#

so multiplying usually ends up wit h more because it's recursive

worldly basalt
#

So if I left click it won’t shuffle?

quaint moss
#

if you click and you grab it really fast then no

#

it's bascially a pro tactic

#

but if you just play 1 hand inside the blind and look which one gves you 15x

#

that's the abstract

worldly basalt
#

Idk what u mean grab it really fast like when im in the round?

#

Or rn

quaint moss
#

nah right after you click select

#

it's unironically a super turbo nerd strat

#

that only losers do to optimize their lame ass naninf runs

#

I don’t think it worked 😭

worldly basalt
#

I didn’t buy any card packs 💀

#

I know I have to for some jokers though

#

I only got the celestial ones

quaint moss
#

no like the deck you selected at the start

#

like red deck blue deck ghost deck plasma deck

worldly basalt
#

Ohhhh the yellow deck

sand talon
#

oh

#

okay

quaint moss
#

oh bet

#

ok

worldly basalt
#

I’ve won on red, blue, and yellow so far first wins I’ve ever gotten in this game all 3 today

quaint moss
#

Primary Color Type Guy

quaint moss
#

ok the 3 pillars of balatro are

#

econ

#

econ

#

and uhhhh

#

econ

#

as soon as you figure out that and how to choose your jokers right you are going to win basically every run

worldly basalt
quaint moss
#

basically

#

flat mult cards like abstract are good in the early game (>ante 4)

#

but by then you should have leveled the hands you're playing enough to be able to pivot to xmult jokers

#

which multiply the multiplier you have in your hand

#

hand level is important because many jokers as well as glass score before jokers are taken into account

#

so if you have a glass card with a base 4x mult and a joker with 10x you'll only have 18 instead of 28

worldly basalt
quaint moss
#

and after a while chips really just stop to matter because mult gets so stupid high

sand talon
quaint moss
#

lucky cat, constellation, card sharp, drivers license, triboulet, baron, steel/glass card

#

about a third of the scoring jokers are dedicated to each

#

+chips +mult and xmult

worldly basalt
quaint moss
#

you have much more than you think

#

economy is so so important because it lets you broaden your options

#

one reroll lets you look at another 3 jokers

#

with enough money you can set up the perfect joker roster for your build

#

and most of the jonklers in this game aren't actually "locked" locked they're just undiscovered

worldly basalt
#

Oh constellation is the planet card one?

quaint moss
#

yep

#

that and baseball card are pretty much guaranteed win cards

worldly basalt
#

But how does that multiply a multiplier though. Does it multiply the planet cards or your chips

quaint moss
#

constellation self synergizes by getting stronger the same way your hands do

#

it multiplies the red number

worldly basalt
worldly basalt
quaint moss
#

yes it is!

#

it gets complicated when you take retriggers into account but you'll pick it up over time

#

you should watch this dude roffle on youtube/twitch

winter hollow
#

I definitely pref constellation but it costs a lot of $$$$

quaint moss
#

he's in the middle of a balatro competitive tournament if you can believe such a thing exists

#

and is pretty good at the game

quaint moss
#

drspectred is better at the game but roffle is more fun to watch

#

yeah there's a multiplayer mod it's a whole thing

#

but yeah either way he's really good

#

and if you watch a few of his runs once you start to understand the decisions he makes you'll just automatically be way way better at the game

#

it's like learning a useful skill like coding or an instrument

#

but uh

#

balatro

#

god fuck this

What are some easy jokers to get? I only got 113 I’m missing like so many I feel like

It can be like a god seed or something but what would be the round or ante the seed gets a naneinf

also lynn i saw ur message earlier but i would love to have mods instead of me just getting it on steam

why chad do not retrigger sock like 1 trigger from chad 1 from sock second from chad and regtiggering card meaning sock can retrigger again cause re re re re like go from zero errase your past to protect future

#

its like here we go again

red hamlet
#

Yeah, recursion and inf loops is also a problem

Think of scoring the card and playing the card as separate actions

in normal world 2 chads would retrigger same card infinitely

retriggering retrigger and again again and again

What’s the play? I was thinking skip it because I got an early gift card so 40/50 temperance value is from the two Perkolators. I can always get a brainstorm when I have a slot right?

Hanging chad just gives the card +2 triggers, red seal gives +1, it's not playing the whole card again

get out of perkeo

you can copy perkeo with brainstorm

Selling a perkeo nukes my Econ because my deck isn’t very fixed yet so I’m still relying on copying temperance

you can copy perkeo

with brainstorm

Because my perkeos are both worth $20 and everything else is worth 4 or 5

and get same value

#

just do the math on the probability of getting it normally and just divide it by itself

#

I did the math for a blueprint/brainstorm but idk if I cba to do it for any particular uncommon

#

actually I can be asked

#

In any given draw (one shop slot), the values are as follows:
Joker: 72%
Tarot: 14%
Planet: 14%
Now, you need to draw one of the 64 uncommon jokers to land on any given uncommon. Drawing an uncommon joker is a 25% chance on top of the 72% chance, which means in order to draw either any particular uncommon, on average it’s a 18% chance per slot, excluding if you have either planet or tarot merchant, So to roll that twice you’d need to multiply 18% by it’s decimal form, .18 x .18, leaving you with 0.0324, and when simplified to a percentage, you get a 3.24% chance of rolling two uncommons in a row (showman doesn’t dig into the probability of jokers, so two jokers of the same rarity wouldn’t affect the drop rates of any given joker)

youd need to round up from 71.4% -> 72%

Well it's a difference of ideas of how decks should work I guess

it's -$1 a round, -5 cards seen, -1 scoring attempt a round, -1 scaling attempt a round

# solemn elm you are horrible at baiting

Money is essential yes but if you use the probabilities of getting cards into your advantage then you'd be playing your winnings hands consistently without worrying to play another hand

I stopped trying and went to painted deck because IT WAS JUST SO TEDIOUS

solemn elm
# random tendon blue stake

which is the biggest difficulty jump, but you haven't gotten to gold stake where 30% of the time the jokers are rental. it's horrific for black deck and makes the jokers pretty much untakeable

#

purple doesn't affect it early, and orange stake also means v little early

#

but gold stake is where black deck goes to die

random tendon
#

That's where we agree

#

but all decks are beatable, that's my argument

solemn elm
#

we're talking about the degree to which they are 'easily' beatable

random tendon
#

black deck is easily beatable BEFORE blue stake

solemn elm
#

and black deck requires the most skill out of any deck to beat

solemn elm
#

and again, balance should be looked at from gold stake imo

random tendon
#

Most decks even after blue stake is easily beatable imo ._.

half whale
solemn elm

that doesn't make the point that black deck is the hardest less true

half whale
solemn elm

that dosent mean they’re easy

I've streaked gold stakes across each deck, I know how beatable they are, and black deck is the least beatable

solemn elm
half whale
#

true

#

but should it start with antimatter

solemn elm
#

there's a precedent for it, and it's not too hard to understand. the only argument that could be made that's cogent is that it does too much, because starting with a voucher and +1 joker slot seems like it's two buffs, but then there's magic deck so it's also fine

I've played a lot and I don't even know what's good with pair in the long run. High card goes all in on held cards, five-card hands go for played cards, pair is stuck in the middle.

pairs are just better than high card in the vast majority of scenarios

also pairs work better with bus because you can throw away faces with a pair just fine
