[stiff siren]

What the hell is ancient doing there

[rich shale]

i lost lmao

[stiff siren]

Sad

[raw fractal]

Hilarious right

[stiff siren]

The plant has found another victim

[rich shale]

i only had steel appear

one

[stiff siren]

Sad

[rich shale]

also legendary jokers look so good

[stiff siren]

Oof

[stray dirge]

I got a dumb run and I won level 27 flush

[steady surge]

can soul appear as first pack from skip?

[raw fractal]

Ye

It appears in any arcana packs

[steady surge]

ok thx

[left gate]

Bruh

[raw fractal]

Glitch?

[left gate]

Bug

[raw fractal]

Damn

[scenic helm]

would it be against the rules to share a screen shot of a frame of balatro containing modded elements in this channel?

[raw fractal]

I’m pretty sure mods were fine on the Reddit but I could be wrong

[scenic helm]

but not on this server channel?

[raw fractal]

I think it should be ok

[scenic helm]

heard, thank you sir

[uneven edge]

#⚙・modding-general

[raw fractal]

Oh yes

[quasi cedar]

Put as spoiler and say content warning modded content 💀

[raw fractal]

That exists

[scenic helm]

gotcha

thank yall!

[shrewd python]

[livid basin]

Am i doing it right

[slim junco]

Yes

[scenic helm]

is that a natty negative business card?

[magic steppe]

move the dagger

[livid basin]

I dont want the half mult anymore, im trying to go for five pair

[magic steppe]

damn, 10 card hand

[livid basin]

Got those vouchers

[leaden wind]

what am i witnessing 💀

[left glade]

i love you ancient joker

[livid basin]

Early game

[candid kernel]

why is your dagger pointed to the left

is your game modded?

[livid basin]

Its pointing to the right?

[candid kernel]

erm...

[stiff siren]

You haven't filled your 6th joker slot yet

[young bolt]

Plant to yo face card name one bad thing about balatro

[dry bay]

Brutally close to c++

[magic steppe]

stake progression can be a drag, some jokers are actually too random to make them fun even if they all work given the context

[scenic helm]

i think i found the prettiest joker

[dry bay]

and 100%

[magic steppe]

endless could have more balance but it's not a requirement and people aren't mad at it

[magic steppe]

some jokers should be made to be more consistently viable/fun, i hope I'm getting the message across

sometimes the rares can be rather underwhelming

we have amazing rares and rares that feel less worth using than a random swashbuckler

[scenic helm]

look at that beautiful joker

[dry bay]

aurora

[wintry cove]

🥵

[daring dagger]

I negative skipped and got a negative oops all 6's

90% of gamblers quit before their first big win

[wintry patrol]

the 6th joker was killed by ceremonial dagger

[raw fractal]

Exactly

Sometimes you just gotta take the risk

[magic steppe]

also skipping is a bit of a wasted system probably? it's detrimental a lot of the times

it should be less punishing

methinks

[dry bay]

hard to make skipping a shop less punishing

[magic steppe]

kinda

[dry bay]

the punishing part for me is just missing the shop

[magic steppe]

but it doesnt have to be a literal death sentence

[dry bay]

I mean it's useful sometimes

[magic steppe]

brings me back to skips being a mostly wasted system

[dry bay]

sure I can agree with that

[magic steppe]

investment tag is nice, anaglyph is cool but those are a slice of the game

[dry bay]

voucher tags

for deep endless builds

[magic steppe]

sure, but it should help ante 8 too

most tags are just shooting yourself in the foot

i do need me a free foil over a shop ngl

[dry bay]

I wouldn't mind a rework of skips

I just don't know what that looks like

cause you're not wrong, but idk how to fix it

[magic steppe]

yeah it's not an easy task

idk if there will be a rework

the game does fine as it is

[dry bay]

cause I am basically only skipping for ante 1 investment tags

[steel tangle]

Spectral deck is calling, they want their Hex back.

[magic steppe]

yeah, that's the thing

25 buck headstart otherwise an actual impediment

[dry bay]

I did a double chicot run last night and would have taken spectral pack skips if I saw any to try and get ecto

took some voucher skips

do take investment

not really many other skips I take...

[magic steppe]

yup

way too many useless ones

either cut them down or change some

[dry bay]

sometimes if my score is alright I will take the other money ones in the middle antes

[magic steppe]

but then again they're overlooked as you can win without them

[dry bay]

like for every unused discard or for however many hands you've played

usually if they're 30-40+

[magic steppe]

the incentive gotta be a bit better imo

have a fun potential

[dry bay]

legendary skip

but that's just too op

[magic steppe]

hell even that could lose you a game

[dry bay]

but would also really make the game reset heavy

[magic steppe]

what's a random ass perkeo/chicot/canio gonna do if you're suddenly behind on scoring

[young prism]

New PB just dropped

[magic steppe]

all runs are just trib or yorick

[dry bay]

cause it will make it really easy to get a gold stake win if you can get a legendary at the very start

so it makes c+ and c++ easier

[dry bay]

very nice 😎

[magic steppe]

imo either have skips be more fun/viable or just get them out

but that's extreme

anaglyph goes extinct

[dry bay]

what if you made a skip not just be a skip

but a "side bet" for the round

[slim junco]

Does ankh copy negative editions too?
Or does it remove it like invis joker

[dry bay]

you still play the blind, but it gets a boss blind activated

[magic steppe]

it's the edition as well

i think that's how it is

you could skip a blind but have a cap on spending on the next shop

idfk

[dry bay]

so you can play a harder blind, get the reward and the shop OR you can skip and just go to the next blind and get the reward

[magic steppe]

wait i worded that like shit

[dry bay]

so are you saying when you skip you still get the shop?

but just limited in how much you can spend?

[magic steppe]

yeah

[dry bay]

maybe if skip tags had something you can only get from them

[magic steppe]

i just thought of it randomly

[dry bay]

like right now you can get the rare/uncommon skips

but what if you got a rare pack that opened like a joker pack

but it's Oops! All Rares

or uncommons

[magic steppe]

if blue stake and matador can be changed, skips can be changed too

[dry bay]

blue stake removes 1 hand right?

[timid laurel]

it removes 1 discard

[dry bay]

oh discard

right

[magic steppe]

that was the old gold stake

[dry bay]

I think hand cause blue deck is +1 hand

[dry bay]

ouch

[slim junco]

Is my hand size cooked?

[timid laurel]

just stuntman thingzzz

[wintry patrol]

did you….take an ectoplasm…when you had a regular joker

[timid laurel]

lmao

[steady oyster]

she balatro on my balatrez till I esta jugando a balatro

[final hornet]

Jimbo looks cool

[slim junco]

Even Steven and odd Todd

Which one am I taking

[dry bay]

probably the skip button

[slim junco]

Nahh

[dry bay]

I guess you have an open slot

idk

don't really like either

plenty of chips

so probably steven

[slim junco]

We really playing with four cards 😭

[dry bay]

maniacal manacle

[wintry patrol]

don’t you score 5k with half and stuntman alone anyway

[dry bay]

oh, bldhf, only got one more joker for my c++

[wintry patrol]

oh nice

[slim junco]

Yeah Ik I’m scoring 21K

[wintry patrol]

which one is left

[dry bay]

vampire 😂

got the stone joker

coincidentally with a stuntman build

[wintry patrol]

that’s

surprising

[dry bay]

I've been told

[wintry patrol]

last one is an xmult scaler

my last was seance

[dry bay]

I got lucky with seance

[wintry patrol]

which seems to be kinda common

[dry bay]

a negative one just popped up for me during a run

[wintry patrol]

i’ve seen at least 2 other people who got seance last lol

[dry bay]

I think I had one midas mask vamp run that I did when I still had a deck on orange stake which is why I have the orange sticker on it

literally at 1199/1200

[wintry patrol]

lol

[slim junco]

I Accidentally SOLD MY HALF JOKER

[dry bay]

last run was also a good one to get vampire for

had lots of enhancements to burn

but nope

stone joker 🙃

[slim junco]

HES BACK

the world

ik people dislike the jokers that convert suits but the world saved my run

[dry bay]

all tarots have their place

the suit changers in particular are nice to dodge debuffed cards

[sick silo]

theres a web port of balatro on itch

im not joking

[slim junco]

My wallpaper is so peak

[wintry patrol]

yeah i’ve saved a run before by bringing in a suit changer and a fool to play a different flush five

[sick silo]

they said its a pre release beta but you can customize cards so thats a lie
i wouldnt recomend it as it crashes when you open packs, play the second blind, or go to the second ante

[agile crypt]

Doomed romance

[slim junco]

I know 😭

[dry bay]

kinda rude to say that during pride month

[agile crypt]

Doomed yaoi

[slim junco]

lol

[agile crypt]

Did you take both

[dry bay]

I mean if opposites attract

they seem perfect for each other

[sonic island]

finally decided to dust off ol' Jimbo again

off to a banger start

[slim junco]

I took even Steven and then ended up selling him

[bitter steeple]

thank you for the red bubbles

[slim junco]

Going into any seven with this

[bitter steeple]

I think your screen is placed on the vertical axis, trying moving it to the horizontal

[slim junco]

Do we sell the drunkard for the duo

[slim junco]

and to get flushes

[sonic island]

bal
atr
o!

[bitter steeple]

yes, the mult will be worth

[slim junco]

Already did, and I think I have a win on my hands

I have amber acorn as my final boss blind

[agile crypt]

congrats

[slim junco]

What’s wrong with my joker 😭🙏

Why does it look like square joker

[ember root]

Man Plasma Deck is so easy

[slim junco]

I won

[bitter steeple]

squished joker

[young prism]

At the very least the 1.5e2 mult from the polychrome should get you through

Then it'd be easy pickings cause your only real threat is gone

[slim junco]

Oh, it was half joker

[broken depot]

Peak

[slim junco]

How do you have your screen animated in the background
How do I get beta iOS 26
Is it always low quality like that

[next trail]

I don’t care to be honest

It’s just my city

[next trail]

1 Someone found the software that apple makes there backgrounds in so now anyone can make those
2 Developers.apple.com on the left menu click login. After you just connect to Apple ID nothing more. Then go to settings updates and click beta IOS 26
3 yes it’s made like that to look like balatro

Even the clock is pixelated

[earnest viper]

They jumped the shark with that glass bs
U likin it?

[slim junco]

What’s the software? Is it in computer only or is it available in mobile

[next trail]

It’s so cool. Hated it first but it looks amazing when you have it

[next trail]

It’s like super hard to learn and also to install but it’s only Mac

[slim junco]

Ah

[next trail]

If you have a Mac I will send the file

[slim junco]

You can send the file on mobile

[next trail]

Wym?

[slim junco]

Like, the file

[next trail]

wait the links are not working

[orchid raft]

separated at birth 💔

[noble wagon]

[noble wagon]

[scenic helm]

dont give me PTSD

[noble wagon]

better have that retcom

[lethal iris]

chat

i'm here to say

white stake makes me snooze

black stake >>>

[urban shuttle]

Do I take?

[lethal iris]

i love having the opportunity to do funny ankh stuff

[dry bay]

Got vamp in the last shop of the run, officially have c++ now

[lethal iris]

don't take it

[lethal iris]

gg

[barren geyser]

Chat rate my friends first run of Balatro(he... uh, doesnt really know what he's doing but he's happy)

[barren geyser]

No wait this is his second run, sorry

[scenic helm]

as long as hes having fun, 10/10

[barren geyser]

True

[cloud forge]

Hey everyone! just a little reminder: you're doing amazing, even if it doesn't always feel like it. Keep pushing forward, take care of yourself, and don't forget to smile, you deserve some joy today. You've got this

[barren geyser]

Awwwn
Thanks dude! You too :)
You do this message here every day?

[molten umbra]

but what is this?

[barren geyser]

Cause i have a friend from other server
That does like
Exactly the same thing

[slim junco]

Thanks you’re awoesme too

[molten umbra]

maybe it's not worth it

[cloud forge]

not always, i just do this whenever im free in every server

[slim junco]

Also Ado rocks

[cloud forge]

btw, im sorry for my poor english

[barren geyser]

Cool, i loved it!

[barren geyser]

Its ok dw

[slim junco]

It’s Alr

Aw dang it

[barren geyser]

So
chat
How's everyone doing?

I wanted to make a game Balatro like
Card game and stuff

But like
Like buckshot roulet+balatro

I called it Bala Viva(Live Bullet in portuguese)

[slim junco]

Would be heat I think

[barren geyser]

Here's... uh
Some of the cards

Ignore that two of them are upside down lmao

[slim junco]

I like the design!!

[barren geyser]

Thanks c:

[shrewd python]

!

[slim junco]

My three years of Spanish has given me a basic understanding of their names (Spanish and Portuguese seem quite similar)

[barren geyser]

Yes

[orchid raft]

marvelous

[barren geyser]

Thanks❤️❤️

[scenic helm]

i could have 6 chads, for the memes?

[slim junco]

Yes

Retrigger max

[scenic helm]

photographs dont matter

they never did

[lavish stratus]

whats better to replace, the dna, or the showman here

[scenic helm]

i would say showman, but im a bumbling fool so...

[lavish stratus]

the dna gives me a lot more hand size but also i have the idol

could be best to replace idol at this point tbh

[scenic helm]

you going high card right?

[lavish stratus]

lv 25 flush five lv18 high card

[scenic helm]

pivot time into high?

[opaque shard]

Guys Deltarune tomorrow

[scenic helm]

i would personally get rid of DNA. not a crazy chance of naninf

or idol

[wanton steeple]

Keep showman might get another retrigger

Or blueprint/brainstorm

If you have enough cards in ur deck should be fine

[orchid raft]

o7

[compact shuttle]

Looks inside

Photochad

[mossy sinew]

Thata great idea ima try make some

[barren geyser]

Wait wdym?

[mossy sinew]

The jokers

[barren geyser]

Oh cool

Well they arent exactly jokers
Its tarot cards that give some effect
And sin cards that give the match a big twist

[mossy sinew]

That 2

[barren geyser]

And also the bullet cards
Live bullet deals 1 damage
Dead bullet deals 0 damage
And Brutal bullet deals 2 damage

[mossy sinew]

Like the style

Just hade a funny thought

The movies

• Now you see me

[clever narwhal]

quick edit

[cosmic spoke]

Balatro Balatrez está jugando Balatrito

Por Balatro

[torpid quest]

How do you share other groups in this group

[raven sinew]

what's the setup for naninf without legendaries, ik its baron + mime but idk if dna or whatnot also affect it

[torpid quest]

You can get naninf with most jokers in the right setup, give me a joker and I'll tell you how to use it

[raven sinew]

mm

lets say im trying to get a naninf with something like Idol/Trib

[torpid quest]

That ain't even hard

[clever narwhal]

uh Dr WhatsApp

[solemn elm]

that doesnt mean theyll meaningfully contribute to getting naneinf

the vast majority of jokers do very little for actually scoring naneinf

[torpid quest]

That's a mod, but if you got a good enhancement and edition on 5 whatsapp cards, and retrigger Dr whatsapp with trueprint, the blueprint dagger, etc. And good negative jokers, it's easy

[raven sinew]

Well, ive never done it before, ive only done b/m

[torpid quest]

Well actually, sometimes but not always that's true

[solemn elm]

its doable, but its way harder than baron mime

[shrewd python]

[solemn elm]

there are, realistically, like 20/150 jokers which actually matter for scores that high

and even thats a stretch

[torpid quest]

But like, it's possible to get naneinf with something like trading card, even though is INSANELY HARD

[solemn elm]

i understand that

but again

"that doesnt mean theyll meaningfully contribute to getting naneinf"

[torpid quest]

Good point

[solemn elm]

you can win with anything, you can naneinf with anything
that doesnt mean they helped you to do that

[wintry patrol]

according to this logic a joker that divides your score by 278 can naneinf

and i don’t think that sounds right

[torpid quest]

Canio: well yes but actually no

[raven sinew]

canio sucks istg

[wintry patrol]

ah yes one of the best xmult scalers in the game

[raven sinew]

like with ankh and ecto you can obviously get canio naninf but thats about it

wait no

you cant because it cant generate eternal

youre screwed there too

invisible jokers and prayers

[timid cedar]

There is a challenge that allows for it so that doesn’t matter

[wintry patrol]

are we rating jokers solely based on whether you can naneinf with them now

[solemn elm]

you absolutely cannot

canio cant be eternal

[raven sinew]

^^

i already got there

[patent flame]

Canio scaling is seed luck based

I got a gold stake canio run with no ways to destroy cards

[timid cedar]

Surely the Non-perishable challenge allows for eternal legendaries

[patent flame]

So in the end i just ended up. Buying hit the road

[neon wren]

next best after baron/mime/hand size tags or serpent (which takes about 7 jokers) is idol which takes about 15. there's possibly seeds that can do the second without perkeo/glitches, but not likely

[raven sinew]

hanged man, trading card, glass cards, like 5/6 spectrals,

nothing?

no spectral/tarot generation?

[solemn elm]

spectrals dont proc canio or glass joker, so

its a bug

[raven sinew]

spectrals absolutely proc canio

[solemn elm]

proof?

[wintry patrol]

yeah they definitely do

[patent flame]

Only spectrals doesn't proc glas joker

[wintry patrol]

at least immolate

[raven sinew]

ive had it happen like 6 times at least

[solemn elm]

which isnt proof

[patent flame]

Spectrals can proc canio and hologram

[solemn elm]

never said they couldnt proc holo 😭

[raven sinew]

fine jesus ill do a brainstorm run

[wintry patrol]

ok i am also 100% sure i’ve had them proc canio but whatever

[patent flame]

It does

[raven sinew]

same

[neon wren]

there's a balatro university vid with immolate/familiar for getting biggish canio

[raven sinew]

yeah

[solemn elm]

source

[neon wren]

but it's not latest patch so prob not acceptable anyway

[wintry patrol]

no source sorry we’re all lying

[small flint]

I tried using my name as a seed and it's apparently pretty strong

[solemn elm]

sorry for asking for evidence i guess?

[raven sinew]

https://youtu.be/YPLmSYEtLjo?si=BX5_tm8HQl2-AZIV

1:39:41

ah nevermind he doesnt do it there

[solemn elm]

its in this one actually https://youtu.be/dojE0p60LIQ, the timestamp you posted doesnt show anything

[solemn elm]

so why post it oh my god 😭

you didnt even review your own evidence

[raven sinew]

lilo for crying out loud

[neon wren]

https://miaklwalker.github.io/Blueprint/?seed=76SJJAP2&deck=Ghost+Deck&antes=8&stake=White+Stake#{}

[raven sinew]

im trying to stop you from spreading lies quickly!

[neon wren]

negative canio, immolate ante 2 in spectral pack

[solemn elm]

had to do your work for you

[raven sinew]

mf the work didnt need done

[solemn elm]

i believed something different, and asked for evidence
what do you mean im spreading lies 😭

[neon wren]

the only way to get evidence without seed searchers which most don't know about would prob take a week of playing

[solemn elm]

its almost like... the video... you talked about... shows it...

[wintry patrol]

it seems a bit silly to refuse to believe something when every other person in the conversation is saying “yeah, i’ve had this happen before”

[raven sinew]

^

[solemn elm]

believing something simply because its the popular opinion is also silly

[neon wren]

vid is almost certainly not current game version, that's not proof

[raven sinew]

it's not an opinion sweetheart

[raven sinew]

😭

oh my god FINE

[solemn elm]

being passive aggressive doesnt solve anything

[neon wren]

I'll admit I have not seen canio/glass joker/etc process on current patch either

so I only have evidence of very few things working

[wintry patrol]

it’s not an opinion it’s us saying we’ve had it happen in our own runs 😭

[neon wren]

like the main menu on my OS doesn't seem to crash

is about all I can give

[raven sinew]

it wouldnt have been patched out because its not a bug

assuming a game feature currently works isnt like

an insane concept

[neon wren]

balatro isn't hugely complicated, but it's still possible a patch could break something and slip by

[raven sinew]

it would have been reported VERY fast

[solemn elm]

this game does not get updated very often

i hope you realise that

[cosmic spoke]

This game?

[raven sinew]

reported, not fixed

[cosmic spoke]

Like

The Game?

[raven sinew]

patches are rigorously qa tested

[raven sinew]

hush child

[solemn elm]

right. and yet bugs still slip through the cracks

[terse badge]

when making money with retriggers, is it same rules as scoring? equal copy jokers on the retrigger and money making joker?

[neon wren]

for someone as pedantic as Lilo, you seeing it work a few months ago on your specific hardware/software isn't evidence

[raven sinew]

hey when was this games last update

[neon wren]

some art thing a few weeks ago

[solemn elm]

the last time any content was added or bugs were stated as being fixed was in may of last year

1.0.1f

[valid osprey]

which should I change for the same?

[raven sinew]

nothing

mime doesnt fit here at all i presume

[solemn elm]

if anything, smiley

[candid kernel]

hi what happened

[solemn elm]

I believed something different than most people and asked for evidence and then got belittled and insulted

[valid osprey]

does not duplicate the ability of any card?

[raven sinew]

i thought you were being incredibly rude for no reason

at that point bets were off

[solemn elm]

because you most likely read tone in a medium where tone is incredibly hard to read already, in messages of someone who is autistic

nothing about the content of my messages showed that i was being incredibly rude

[candid kernel]

immolate does proc canio

end of discussion

[solemn elm]

ill extend the same liberties to you

"proof?"

[wintry patrol]

frankly

you give me proof that it doesn't

[raven sinew]

this exact word

[wintry patrol]

i know the video was posted already

but like

you were the only person saying it wasn't
the burden of proof should be on you

anyway

[solemn elm]

getting out of it by using the burden of proof

i dont have mods installed nor am i going to bother because its late

[candid kernel]

it was sent to you

dr spectred wouldn't use it for the canio world record if that was the case

he'd be using hanged men instead

[solemn elm]

again, as Lokey even said "vid is almost certainly not current game version, that's not proof", "I'll admit I have not seen canio/glass joker/etc process on current patch either"

[candid kernel]

the video is on version 1.0.1f

what version are we in

[solemn elm]

not 1.0.1f

[candid kernel]

if you somehow care this much

[candid kernel]

run brainstorm and prove that it doesn't ig

[solemn elm]

i do not have mods installed

[raven sinew]

i did and now i have 4 canios

whoops

[wintry patrol]

frankly yes i think it is ridiculous to keep saying "proof?" when you're the one person disagreeing with everybody else
and that's that

i will not discuss this any further

[candid kernel]

did the patchnotes tell something that indicates that the way canio detects card deletion was changed

[raven sinew]

no

[solemn elm]

so if there's nothing in the patch notes to say something has changed, then it mustn't have changed?

[raven sinew]

they've just never seen it themselves

[candid kernel]

it's unlikely for it to have

unless thunk messed with canio's code for whatever reason before the update was published

[solemn elm]

right but that doesn't mean it has not changed

the game has spaghetti code, if you've ever looked into the files you know that

[candid kernel]

it does

did you look into the files to see if canio's removal detection allows immolate to count

[solemn elm]

??? 😭

that just isnt how bugs work

[candid kernel]

it would if the implementation was questionable

[solemn elm]

glass joker isnt bugged because it doesnt explicitly allow immolate, its because of the way that the cards get deleted by the spectrals is different

[candid kernel]

this discussion feels like it won't get anywhere

[neon eagle]

anyone playing any good incrementals atm? even cheap costing ones?

[solemn elm]

it wont because youre using inference and code instead of, oh idk, waiting for the person who is doing what you said for me to do to actually show that it works

[candid kernel]

i can't provide you the proof because i'm not currently on my pc

[solemn elm]

i never said for you to

[candid kernel]

i could do it tomorrow if it's really necessary

[solemn elm]

Star stated earlier that she's using brainstorm for it

[raven sinew]

still working on it

whoops i died without any tests

my bad

[wintry patrol]

i honestly regret even wasting my time proving this because i already knew it was true, but here you go.

[solemn elm]

ty

[solemn elm]

right but you weren't proving it for yourself because you already "knew" it

[wintry patrol]

why is knew in quotes here

[solemn elm]

because you said it

i put a quote in quotation marks

[opaque shard]

I suck at black deck

[hard gyro]

Who needs deck fixing when you got erratic

[opaque shard]

Pause

[hard gyro]

Rare scenario where blackboard was useful

[solemn elm]

its the hardest deck, dont take it too personally

[verbal zephyr]

blackboard is goat rest assured

[hard gyro]

[opaque shard]

I mean hard is fun but also it can be rough

[hard gyro]

I love how bizarre balatro can get lol

[pallid hawk]

do i take this?

[opaque shard]

Sure

[left glade]

I don't know how to play with Perkeo, I just got him in a race, what do you recommend to do?

[hard gyro]

[opaque shard]

Get a good consumable to copy

I suggest hermit

[left glade]

ok

[neon eagle]

perkeo is hard because like, whats ur goal?

is it just like who gets higher score?

[left glade]

yes, i need to win a black stake

[neon eagle]

my general pathing when i do perkeo runs is copy econ to set up some good jokers, then more specific deck fixing to fit the hand ur going for

[opal viper]

hello

[neon eagle]

so like the run im playing right now i copy hermit for money, hung man to cut cards, then death to copy the good cards i got from packs

[ember root]

holy shit balatro balatrez

[opal viper]

yes

[left glade]

i have the Driver's License too

[neon eagle]

so if ur in a position with good scoring for now

you could copy magicians

to get enough cards for license and try and hit money shots

or any other tarot card that enhances 2 cards

[left glade]

My English is bad because I moved to the United States recently, sorry for any mistakes 😭

[neon eagle]

its okay!

[left glade]

thanks for the hints

[marble monolith]

balatro

is here

[hearty acorn]

Guys should I just say F it and buy the baron

[hard gyro]

Bro what is happening

[hearty acorn]

I already have like 7 red seal kings in my deck

And then I can just copy it immediately

[hard gyro]

This is just ante 1

[hearty acorn]

With the invisible joker

[hard gyro]

Yeah this is painful

I hate rental

[bitter steeple]

forever in debt

[hearty acorn]

Got 3 barons somehow

Idk how this happened

[hard gyro]

Ghost deck that's what happened

Spectrals in shop

[distant gate]

haaii ^w^

[hearty acorn]

No

Invisible jokers

Doesn’t even matter

The plant

[wintry patrol]

having 2 rentals without any money generation is a choice

also that perishable rental brainstorm was 100% bait

lost you $15 for what
did you ever copy an econ joker with it :/

[hearty acorn]

It’s so heartbreaking to lose a run to the plant

[slim junco]

That’s why you need me gang

[uneven edge]

what use is that brainstorm giving you 💀

[uneven edge]

you could just sell the rentals…?

[hard gyro]

That run died

There was no hope for it

[uneven edge]

i’d assume so

[hard gyro]

I was baited so hard by rentals

[uneven edge]

no I think you gave it zero hope

[hard gyro]

Man gold stake is cruel

[uneven edge]

those rentals weren’t eternal

and you had zero econ

[hard gyro]

I thought I might get lucky

I was gambling the run and I lost

[leaden wind]

Bros fried 😭

[signal hinge]

This is absolutely tragic

Also nice arcana pack

[left glade]

the best way to get the 400 cash joker its with perkeo?

[signal hinge]

I just played out white stake plasma and used rebate or other Econ jokers

[left glade]

the 400 cash jokers is good? I don't know if it's worth trying to unlock it

[signal hinge]

It’s a decent Econ joker but imo is outclassed by other ones like rocket or rebate

[rapid oar]

guys

should i open my balatro cards or keep them sealed

[left glade]

I think Baron is so bad, or I just don't know how to use him

but it never helps with my flush

[untold forge]

baron is cracked

u play high card

[red coral]

baron is endless mode andy

[untold forge]

check my friends play tho he ectoplasmed an invisible joker😆

[ember root]

Negative Invisible...

[untold forge]

we died laughing for like 5 min

[worldly basin]

Invincible

🥶

Only pros will get it

[left glade]

There is a joker that creates a joker that you have, right? How do I get it?

[untold forge]

winning a game w 4 jokers

the whole time

cant go over

[left glade]

the best deck for this is the plasma deck?

[untold forge]

painted deck

[ember root]

Or Painted Deck

[untold forge]

plasma always good but painted keeps u at 4

so u never go over and +2 hand size

[left glade]

i never played with the painted deck

[untold forge]

its underrated imo

[left glade]

i sell the acrobat right?

[uneven edge]

no it’s not

[uneven edge]

or ramen

[untold forge]

situational*

[uneven edge]

no it’s not even situational

it’s straight up ass

[merry terrace]

ramen proba ly unless your deck fixing is crazy

[uneven edge]

GS ante 8 it’s ass

[uneven edge]

it’s both

you don’t know how to use him and it’s bad

[untold forge]

very kind

and for getting naninf its good

thats abt it yeah plant cooks it

[bitter kraken]

I hate the fucking whell tarot card

[uneven edge]

so it’s… ass

[bitter kraken]

I opened 7 my last run

[uneven edge]

the card used for the least balanced part of the game

[bitter kraken]

7 arcanas to the trash

[untold forge]

its a game m8

[haughty panther]

swashbunkler correct pick up? (plasma gold stake)

[untold forge]

thats the point

[bitter kraken]

What is that thing on the card corner

What are they

[haughty panther]

how many rounds left for the perishable to perish

[bitter kraken]

Also

[uneven edge]

yes?

[bitter kraken]

Blueprint 4 the win

[untold forge]

shows what stake u beat it on for the right the left means it is debuffed after 5 turns

for clock and then the money is a rental so 3 dollars per turn

[frozen wyvern]

2x2x2x2 is less than 3x3x3 tho

[bitter kraken]

Perish card

[haughty panther]

so swashbunkler?

[untold forge]

games r fun to break

[frozen wyvern]

oh didn’t see that

nah blueprint ftw

[bitter kraken]

Blueprint is the peak of unbalancement

Thats why I love card games

[uneven edge]

not really

[left glade]

im my opinion the best joker is the hanging chad

[bitter kraken]

I play a lot of stp

And deus ex machina is like getting a blueprint and a ballot

[bitter kraken]

I call it ballot

Cuss idk

[untold forge]

best i think has to be dna

[bitter kraken]

Nah

[untold forge]

im a big dna enjoyer

[bitter kraken]

You need a real specific deck

And I play full house 4 the win

[frozen wyvern]

mime neg diff

[untold forge]

play high card

[wintry patrol]

i'm not sure if i would call hanging chad the best joker in the game but it is close and it's incredibly versatile

calling dna the best joker is crazy though

[frozen wyvern]

word

[bitter kraken]

Yeah let me get trough the first stage

With high card

[ancient pendant]

The blueprint jocker can copy dna right?

[frozen wyvern]

yup

[untold forge]

i just love it cuz its death in joker form

[haughty panther]

who ever said to pick up blueprint give them a gold medal

[left glade]

i hate you the eye

[bitter kraken]

That is an epic combo

[untold forge]

deck building is so fun

[bitter kraken]

Also a peak Joker is neg chicot

[ancient pendant]

Yeah, but its a bit hard to do all the deck based on a specific card lol

[left glade]

i hate the eye and plant so much

[bitter kraken]

Holo king with red seal

[frozen wyvern]

why would you pick the worst legendary joker to negative

[bitter kraken]

Needle is worst

[bitter kraken]

Cuss is no efects

[wintry patrol]

not really

[bitter kraken]

And I only loss to plants and needles

[untold forge]

well yeah it dosent get rid of

[wintry patrol]

the issue with dna is it floods your deck

[bitter kraken]

9999 kings

[frozen wyvern]

then pick perkeo lol

[wintry patrol]

it increases your drawing consistency to a point but deleting cards is much more effective at doing that

[frozen wyvern]

naneinf heaven right there

[left glade]

triboulet the best legendary joker

[untold forge]

tru, just cool strats u can do w

yeah deleting is better

[bitter kraken]

Forgot

[frozen wyvern]

trib does go crazy tho

[bitter kraken]

Perkeo+observatory

Thats a peak one

[frozen wyvern]

true

[untold forge]

perkeo best is it not

[wintry patrol]

triboulet is the worst legendary joker (in ante 8 runs)
(because unlike the other legendaries it's not applicable to every build, triboulet is still very very good it's just a bit more niche than the other 4 legendaries)

[ancient pendant]

Yeah, but if you have lucky and got a jocker that idk, every queen 15 multiplier, its the best jocker

[frozen wyvern]

yuh

[left glade]

my best hand was with triboulet 😭

[wintry patrol]

perkeo is by far the best for endless but for ante 8 runs it’s less useful

chicot isn’t flashy but it wins runs for you 💔

[untold forge]

chicot overhated

can save a life fr

[left glade]

i'm going to got the invisible joker

[untold forge]

worth to get

[left glade]

its hard for me but possible

[untold forge]

if u got to E im sure you can win with 4 jokers

[wintry patrol]

easiest to just do on painted deck since it has 4 joker slots anyway

[untold forge]

exactly

[left glade]

i love investment tag

[tropic shore]

I like balatro.

[left glade]

me too

throwback is the best uncommon joker

[wintry patrol]

throwback is a bottom 5 joker

[tropic shore]

i love the concept, cause i like skipping, but missing money + shop for a %25 times mult gain just isn't worth it

[kind niche]

Real I just lost a run because it didn't scale enough 🔥🔥

[left glade]

all the time time worth skip the small blind

[proper axle]

balatro killed my grandma

[wintry patrol]

i would definitely consider throwback if it was 0.5 per skip but at 0.25 it’s just never worth skipping a round of scaling other jokers, using econ jokers, seeing a shop, and getting interest

[coral cosmos]

Question: What is your favorite challenge? Mine is Mad World

[tropic shore]

grandma couldn't handle greatness.

[left glade]

I've never done a challenge

[coral cosmos]

Do you have them unlocked?

[left glade]

yes

but i am lazy

[wintry patrol]

i like monolith because it serves as an introduction to how to use obelisk properly which a lot of newer players have trouble with

[coral cosmos]

fair enough

[tropic shore]

i despise obelisk and its use

i get how your supposed to use it, and it can be good i think

[left glade]

The most indisputable thing about Balatro is that the obelisk is horrible

[tropic shore]

its good if you need to transition what hand your playing (i think i dont use obelisk)

[coral cosmos]

I had a Mad World run where I constantly switched from flush five to high card lol

[patent flame]

I love obelisk

Obelisk made me win so many gold stake runs

[tropic shore]

funny

[wintry patrol]

this is why people need to play monolith 💔

obelisk is incredibly powerful when used correctly

[patent flame]

Same with campfire

[tropic shore]

the only time i tried obelisk i lost on gold

[patent flame]

Campfire is easier to setup

[coral cosmos]

"Hey folks, today we're back with some more gold stake balatro. In this run, we got an early Obelisk that easily made us win..."

[patent flame]

I'm sorry to say this but it's just skill issue

[wintry patrol]

i don’t understand the hate for campfire with newer players

like

you just buy and sell consumables

[patent flame]

New players gotta understand u can win 5 antes without xmult

[wintry patrol]

what’s the issue !?

[coral cosmos]

Fyi, I haven't even gotten to gold stake yet, my highest stake is purple lmao

[patent flame]

They think it's jokers

Also it can reset

[left glade]

I don't like Campfire because it has better jokers

[patent flame]

Obelisk is a good joker that can achieve the ante 8 boss scaling in purple

Purple is hard because of increased ante scaling

[wintry patrol]

what does this mean

[patent flame]

And getting used to it is annoying

[tropic shore]

maybe it is, but its just boring to constantly check what hand type i played last

[patent flame]

Understand the concept "U don't get to pick what u want in the shop" if u wanna win more runs

[left glade]

I'm the player who keeps resetting until a good joker appears in the first store

[wintry patrol]

this explains some things 💔

[patent flame]

That's bad

[bitter kraken]

Im the player thag if I fon5 get a full house without discarding on first hand i restart

[wintry patrol]

i mean if you have fun playing that way that’s fine i guess

[patent flame]

Inconsistent player who isn't open minded to play for other jokers

[wintry patrol]

you can win with high flushes and high straights though 😭

[patent flame]

Yes

Just find high rank cards

It's not rocket science

[bitter kraken]

Or 4s

[uneven edge]

abandoned deck would like your number

[patent flame]

4s no

[left glade]

Balatro is very hard is very difficult if I don't start with a blueprint hanging chad and photograph

[tropic shore]

I like balatro.

[patent flame]

4s is not going to help u one shot

[bitter kraken]

I just don't want to discard on first hand

[patent flame]

Then learn the game

[uneven edge]

[bitter kraken]

I wanna insta win

[patent flame]

Ur not always gonna get that combo

In every run

[wintry patrol]

lmao

[bitter kraken]

Restart

[patent flame]

There's so many jokers in the game to explore

[patent flame]

Fuck you

[bitter kraken]

Insta win first hand

Then ill play

But I hate the first hand

[uneven edge]

bro bought the game to not play it

[wintry patrol]

yeah i don’t get people who play like that honestly
there’s a lot more to the game than photochad baron bloodstone endless

[patent flame]

Do i get to choose photochad to win gold stake? No

[bitter kraken]

Im just tired of getting bad cards on the first hand while playing red stakes and not being able to buy smt good

[wintry patrol]

you discover lots of cool synergies you wouldn’t have thought of it’s fun
doing the same thing over and over is not interesting 💔

[patent flame]

There's barely any jokers that even makes the build better. I only got to stick with these

[patent flame]

All for that dopamine rush

[uneven edge]

this is something you learn to play around

[patent flame]

When the true dopamine rush comes from playing other jokers getting good and get rewarded with luck for it

[uneven edge]

and also you’ll realize it isn’t that big of a detriment

[left glade]

I never win a gold stake, I haven't even won the blue stake yet

[bitter kraken]

Restart

🇧🇦

Wait

[uneven edge]

ok

[bitter kraken]

Wrong one

[wintry patrol]

the true dopamine rush is when i get the flush five wee joker build on gold stake

[bitter kraken]

It wasnt bosnia

Why did i put bosnia

[patent flame]

True dopamine rush is getting a build like this in gold stake

[wintry patrol]

or i win with stencil and one other joker

[bitter kraken]

My fav decks are stelar and green

[bitter steeple]

green deck is slept on

[wintry patrol]

i really dislike green deck

[patent flame]

Just play yellow deck if u want the early money

Green deck is probably bottom 5 decks

[wintry patrol]

i feel like green deck is the most polarizing of any deck

[left glade]

my fav decks are checkered and ghost

[bitter steeple]

I'm not saying it isn't

[wintry patrol]

everyone either loves it or hates it

[bitter steeple]

But I like using it

[patent flame]

Checkered is free but boring

[bitter kraken]

MONEY

[patent flame]

Worst way to get money 💔 u mean

[wintry patrol]

ghost is definitely the most fun

[bitter kraken]

🤑🤑🤑

[wintry patrol]

abandoned is up there too because i like straight and 4oak and flush five builds

[patent flame]

Y'all playing checkered for bloodstone omg. Literally tap in to arrowhead

[left glade]

baseball card is horrible

[patent flame]

Arrowhead fixes flushes chips problem

[signal hinge]

Arrowhead is mad underrated

[bitter kraken]

I dont like saving for interest

Nor doing tryhard combos

[wintry patrol]

this is just an intentionally bad take

[bitter kraken]

The only way i get lots of money is with golden joker

[tropic shore]

if you can get 2-3 unconmmon jokers it can be really good

[patent flame]

Sorry. I don't like not winning every run 🙄 🙄

[patent flame]

A whole uncommon joker build can be rad

[bitter kraken]

I play to get a cavendish

Then die happy

[left glade]

I don't know many good uncommon jokers

[bitter kraken]

With caven

[tropic shore]

rare, but very fun

[patent flame]

Castle trousers constellation hologram blackboard seeing double card sharp

[tropic shore]

that was actually my first gold stake win

[patent flame]

Certificate

[wintry patrol]

i’m ngl almost every uncommon is at least somewhat viable for ante 8 runs

[patent flame]

Midas mask and vampire

[bitter steeple]

seeing double snuck it's way in here I see

[left glade]

blackboard?

[patent flame]

Blackboard is one of the most consistent xmult jokers in the game

[bitter kraken]

Hologram is peak

[left glade]

blackboard has an extremely specific use

[wintry patrol]

blackboard shines with smaller hands where you can just pick up extra hearts and diamonds to throw away

[patent flame]

It requires simple deck fixing

[signal hinge]

Solid 3x relatively easy to deck fix towards

[wintry patrol]

it’s not super specific, it just doesn’t work with 5 card hands

[bitter kraken]

Hologram is the peak

[left glade]

i only play with flush

[signal hinge]

Also you can just bring a moon or world into a blind if you find one

[patent flame]

In the late game if u got castle and deck fix with the world tarot u can always discard for more chips and play bigger hand types

[signal hinge]

Try different hands

[patent flame]

U need to be more versatile to other different hand types

[wintry patrol]

this is your problem not the joker’s ngl

[patent flame]

God why do new players stick with flushes

No offense just a question

[bitter kraken]

This what I mean to restart till perfect start

[wintry patrol]

i did too flush is still my most played hand

[plucky palm]

guys how ethical is it for me to train roffles voice for him to teach my lecture notes?

[bitter kraken]

I lost that beuty stencil

[patent flame]

I was hand agnostic when i was new

So it's different for everyone ig

[bitter kraken]

FULL HOUSE

[patent flame]

Now my favs are pair hc 3oak and 4oak

[bitter kraken]

AND 4S AND 5S

[left glade]

Which joker do I sell?

[wintry patrol]

4oak straight and flush five are my favorites to play

[signal hinge]

None

[bitter kraken]

None

[bitter steeple]

what evil deck is this

[patent flame]

4oak with obelisk scaling omg

[tropic shore]

black deck

[wintry patrol]

i’ll do pairs if i have to but i won’t be happy about it

[patent flame]

It's peak

[signal hinge]

Painted

[bitter steeple]

oh right

I forgot painted deck was a thing

[patent flame]

I don't wanna touch painted again

Unless i wanna play smth like stm

[wintry patrol]

i mean if you were talking about baseball card because of this sure baseball card is at its worst in painted deck

[slim junco]

Yeah

[patent flame]

Bc is not good with a limited joker slot

[slim junco]

Fr

[viral rapids]

😭

[patent flame]

So don't hate on it if a joker doesn't synergize with a whole deck

[patent flame]

Are we deadass rn

[left glade]

It was the only rare joker that came, rare = good, I just think he's the worst

[bitter kraken]

What one i get

[patent flame]

Buffoon pack

[slim junco]

Should I play balala

[obtuse flint]

Install the cardsauce mod so you can shoot him

[left glade]

Is it worth using the ankh?

[patent flame]

Use immolate

[fiery flower]

no, immolate

[viral rapids]

Idk what that is gng I just installed

[patent flame]

Always prioritize money and deck fixing

[wintry patrol]

what the heck would you ankh here

[sick iris]

am i missing something or

[obtuse flint]

Vinesauce and Vargskelethor + Balatro

[shy dove]

i would say if u have money sorted you could also do trance

[fiery flower]

nah immolate

burn it all down

[slim junco]

Lose 500 more

That’s how it works man

[wanton steeple]

I got 3 decks left until C+ completion

[bitter steeple]

is this peak gameplay

[viral rapids]

No gng idk how to play ts game

[wintry patrol]

i see decisions like these and it makes me realize why some people lose so damn much in this game 💔

were you going to really ankh the chad

[slim junco]

@final delta is my goat

[fiery flower]

you didn't lose 5 runs, you lost 6

[viral rapids]

I just chose the cards with the highest number each time

[fiery flower]

glad I could help

[left glade]

do i buy the certificate?

[final delta]

i was summoned

[slim junco]

Where you been at man

[fiery flower]

but seriously I don't know why it's not unlocked, I guess try playing another run

[bitter steeple]

do you know how to play poker

[final delta]

playing balatro man

[slim junco]

Damn

[viral rapids]

No I'm not american

[slim junco]

Real

[fiery flower]

I would, you get some seals

[bitter kraken]

Ima sell everything

But the interest

And buy the spectral

[slim junco]

I got a shit ton of manga

[bitter kraken]

And idk the face or the astral

[bitter steeple]

that would be the issue. balatro is poker with extra steps

[bitter kraken]

I dont know anything bout poker

[slim junco]

I live in las Vegas so I know my way around 🤭

[bitter kraken]

Bit BALATRO is just instinct

[final delta]

hell yeah that's awsome man

[slim junco]

Pretty cool (there’s more)

[bitter steeple]

are you a fan of tokyo ghoul by any chance

[slim junco]

Nah, never read it

[patent flame]

Tf

[final delta]

holy fuck u wasn't lying

[bitter kraken]

Gn balatros balatrez

[tropic shore]

I like balatro.

[bitter kraken]

Gn gotta sleep

[slim junco]

I built that bookshelf yesterday

[bitter kraken]

Tomorrow balatro awaits

[slim junco]

Bro you won’t believe this

Me too

[bitter kraken]

You + a neg are the best card in all the game

[slim junco]

I know gang

🤭

[bitter steeple]

every day when I close my eyes to rest I am relentlessly tormented with «NOPE»

[bitter kraken]

FUCKING WHELLLLLL AHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[slim junco]

[bitter steeple]

wheel of fortune is my fourth most played tarot card

[bitter kraken]

I literally smashed a table on my school after spending my last 8 on a whell

And getting a nope

The arcana had

Whell

And hanged

[viral rapids]

I thought u just put down cards and win 😔

[slim junco]

Yo know, I would never say to debuffing a boss blind

[left glade]

i love ancient joker

[honest canopy]

Whell whell whell

[bitter kraken]

Whell

[slim junco]

*and Chicot

[bitter kraken]

My literal emotional state is defined via misprint and whell

[honest canopy]

Nobody loves Chicot Milhouse

[honest canopy]

I can't tell if you are saying whell on purpose or you just don't know what it's called

[bitter steeple]

No matter how much I deck fix ancient joker always manages to proc the very last card I have to get rid of that my build isn't centered around

[wintry patrol]

uh

ancient joker doesn't choose from your deck

[bitter kraken]

Spiny shit

[bitter steeple]

but it feels like it does

[wintry patrol]

it just chooses a random suit with equal chances

[honest canopy]

🛞

[bitter kraken]

Yeaj

Wheel

Oh

Wheel

[honest canopy]

Ancient Joker picks a suit at random or it would be broken on Checkered

[wintry patrol]

if you remove all of one suit from your deck you've guaranteed your death if you're using ancient joker lmao

you want to equally remove cards of every suit with it

[bitter steeple]

I'll ball

[wintry patrol]

or make wilds but that's risky with suit debuff bosses

[bitter kraken]

Gonna sleep gng

[final delta]

absolutely crazy

[honest canopy]

To add to this you could also go wilds but thats riskier
