[hard gyro]

Yeah

[light hare]

latro

[hard gyro]

No

Balatro is no job

Doesn't pay me

[brisk zinc]

tell that to the streamers

[hard gyro]

Great point

Even though balatro is a good game and currently trending the trend is destined to die at some point

[olive ferry]

Imagine being forced a pfp by your friends
Could not be me

[hard gyro]

I will still play it tho it's really fun

As fun as deadcells

[rose verge]

guys what's the best way to get legendary jokers?

[olive ferry]

Prayer

🙏

[hard gyro]

It's only way if i am not mistaken

[brisk zinc]

mannn my economy is shit so i can't reroll

[hard gyro]

Unless you are talking about mods

[brisk zinc]

i know the blueprint is hiding somewhere

[hard gyro]

Investment tag

[brisk zinc]

yea i can afford that if i see one

scoring e30ish

[hard gyro]

It's probably behind that last reroll you can't afford lol

[brisk zinc]

yep

every shop

[rose verge]

what mods give faster speed?

[hard gyro]

That's from settings

Game speed

4x

[rose verge]

no i want faster then normal speed

[hard gyro]

Idk

[brisk zinc]

there are mods that give higher than x4 but i don't recall the name

[hard gyro]

I am vanilla only player

[brisk zinc]

there's also one that lets you skip the whole scoring animation

[hard gyro]

Isn't cryptid a mod that includes everything?

Or are there multiple

[brisk zinc]

not everything

but a lot of things

mostly decks jokers and stuff like that

[hard gyro]

I saw a WhatsApp seal mod

[rose verge]

what mods do you use

[olive ferry]

I think its called Saturn?

[brisk zinc]

i use jokerdisplay, bluestorm and unblind

sometimes cryptid or maximus but not for semivanilla runs

[hard gyro]

Semivanilla?

[brisk zinc]

vanilla with visual and quality of life mods

nothing that actually makes you play better

[hard gyro]

Vanity mods basically

[hard gyro]

Damn

[brisk zinc]

like the gay ass blueprint and brainstorm

[dreamy ledge]

Hell na

[hard gyro]

Yeah no shit that artstyle is gay as f*ck

[brisk zinc]

i mean the github readme literally describes it as a yuri mod

[dreamy ledge]

I give up

[hard gyro]

I am balatro

I bet with goldstake

[strange meadow]

whats up chat

[dreamy ledge]

Then I hate you

[rose verge]

has anyone here got 100000000 chips in one hand? if so how, what was your strategy

[strange meadow]

get lucky, mostly

[brisk zinc]

big xmult

[hard gyro]

I hope you get a perishable rental blueprint

[strange meadow]

realistically while you can deckfix n play with things you still needa pull the right jokers

however there are a lot of options

[dreamy ledge]

I actually got it multiple times a day

[brisk zinc]

if your econ is good you can reroll more for better jokers

[rose verge]

what is everyone's favorite joker?

[strange meadow]

hologram

[dreamy ledge]

Weeee

[hard gyro]

Cool it's only 1 dollars and there is a every round fee of 3$ and we will disconnect it store policy

Gold stake sounds like a big ass scam with rentals

[strange meadow]

if you wanna get it done easiest you should probably low-stake it btw

bum around white stake til you get the hand

[dreamy ledge]

Half of the jokers are rental

[hard gyro]

If you want to do a flush five you should probably have five of kind cards all with the same suit

[rose verge]

mine is smiley face

[strange meadow]

trueee

[hard gyro]

Yeah i stated something so obvious I am a genius

[strange meadow]

[brisk zinc]

smiley is a great early game jonkler

[hard gyro]

Who is the store vendor in balatro like what's keeping the player from just stealing stuff from it?

[brisk zinc]

localthunk himself

and he has guns

[hard gyro]

No way

[strange meadow]

smiley has some potential late-game too based on how you fix your deck

if you aint one for deckfixing you could nab paredolia

[brisk zinc]

yes but +mult is imo better in early game

[hard gyro]

Smiley face is underrated it goes so well with photochad

[strange meadow]

definitely

[hard gyro]

Smiley face is +mult

[brisk zinc]

yes exactly

[strange meadow]

however i think you need a +mult and an xmult to really see the build soar

[hard gyro]

I love purple and blue stickers

[strange meadow]

xmults are good but like. having a good +mult to start with is good too

[hard gyro]

Prob the best stake stickers

Better than gold ngl

[strange meadow]

even sumt simple like abstract or swashbuckler can help very well with boosting your xmults

[brisk zinc]

oh for sure

swash + negative egg

[hard gyro]

I almost never use swashbuckler

[rose verge]

did you know that the name of this joker is a disorder that makes you see face every where you go

[hard gyro]

Yes

[brisk zinc]

i actually knew that

[hard gyro]

I did infact know that

And i saw some pretty disturbing images on google

How's the run going woman @brisk zinc

[brisk zinc]

waiting for one more blueprint or brainstorm

then i'll reroll for serpent and hopefully have enough cryptids in stock

i have 40 rn

[hard gyro]

Damn

[strange meadow]

kinda missing out honestly

swashbuckler can be quite reliable

[hard gyro]

Well i work with what I get

[strange meadow]

thats fair

[sullen socket]

You trying for naneinf?

[hard gyro]

I try not to get greedy

If balatro was just a normal poker game it wouldn't hurt my brain like it does now

But i am glad it isn't

I love deckfixing

That's why erratic is my favorite deck

It's not flashy like others but it makes the game more fun

[brisk zinc]

i got my best unseeded run ever on erratic

[hard gyro]

I had 10 queen of spades once I started in one of my unseeded runs

It was easy getting flush fives online

[mild blade]

what 3 jonkers are you missing

[hard gyro]

What you mean

[mild blade]

337/340

[brisk zinc]

i had like 7 aces and just went with it, ended up getting perkeo, observatory and a billion planet cards

[hard gyro]

Stone joker, stailete and tier 2 hone voucher

Those are what's missing

[mild blade]

gl

[hard gyro]

Wow

[brisk zinc]

best hand was e19 iirc which is nothing compared to what i'm doing rn but for unseeded it was cool

[hard gyro]

Sound like streamers luck

[brisk zinc]

i been thinking about streaming this game some time just for fun

for nightbot my biggest fan

fucking showman do something

[brisk zinc]

remember kids, bullying works

[fickle thistle]

i hope you're right

[brisk zinc]

now i will wait for retcon, sell chicot and reroll for serpent

i should have enough cryptids by then

[fickle thistle]

i just bullied my cat into making a sandwich for me

he seems angry

[brisk zinc]

wtf my cat just bullies me

she scratches my couch and hops on the balcony railing knowing i'm scared she'll fall off

[fickle thistle]

is it working

[brisk zinc]

not anymore

i let her chill on the railing because i trust now

and if i didn't, i could never open my balcony door and i'd fry in my apartment

[fickle thistle]

me and my cat hate eachother

[ornate cove]

Balatro has changed my life

[brisk zinc]

inspirational

[fickle thistle]

it has changed my life so much

that i play it on the school computer now

[wild lily]

me and the bois vs plant

[fickle thistle]

one of my best baron builds was on the school computer

[ornate cove]

We aren't different 🔥🔥

[brisk zinc]

i would never log into my steam account on a school puter

[hard gyro]

My puppy bullies me

[ornate cove]

Fu plant

[brisk zinc]

☹️

[hard gyro]

I love her tho

[fickle thistle]

i'm sad to say it

[hard gyro]

Even though she wants to devour my hand sometimes

[fickle thistle]

but i did it even worse

i logged into my xbox account

[brisk zinc]

lol

[ornate cove]

Blud, I'm a cracker

[brisk zinc]

i'm white too

:jo

[wild lily]

school computers suck
so i brought my laptop

[ornate cove]

Crack that balatro in school computer

[brisk zinc]

my school forces us to buy our own laptops

[ornate cove]

It is not that hard

[wild lily]

certified gaming setup for 45 mins

[hard gyro]

A microwave

[fickle thistle]

certified gaming setup

[hard gyro]

Runs balatro pretty well

[brisk zinc]

ik i played my first 40ish hours on pirated too

[fickle thistle]

pulls out a nokia phone

[brisk zinc]

just didn't think yall are doing it in school

[wild lily]

mmm yummy

[ornate cove]

Explodes

[hard gyro]

What you think is more phenomenonal gta sa or balatro

Two different games ik

[brisk zinc]

that's not even a question unfortunately

[fickle thistle]

i have specific times to play it

since i study integral time

[ornate cove]

Balatro mod in gta sa

[brisk zinc]

gta sa mod in balatro

[hard gyro]

Yeah gta sa is incomparable

[brisk zinc]

Carl Joker

[hard gyro]

Gives +1 mult for each spade played

[ornate cove]

It turns in negative all jokers

[hard gyro]

Truly one of the jokers of all time

[fickle thistle]

we should protest for a tarot card that downgrades the level of cards

i was having shower thoughts about how crazy that'd be

[hard gyro]

That's actually not a bad idea

I do queen bulids sometimes using shoot the moon

[brisk zinc]

there's a spectral in cryptid mod that turns all owned jokers negative but all jokers have double price for the rest of the run

[hard gyro]

Shoot the moon can be pretty crazy early game

[brisk zinc]

it's like almost balanced which is above expectations for cryptid

[hard gyro]

True

Even though I never played cryptid I saw how broken it can be

Like legendaries appearing in shop

[fickle thistle]

i don't like balatro mods

the game is already complicated as is

[ornate cove]

As mentioned

[brisk zinc]

some mods make it less complicated

[wild lily]

i take one look at mods
then take one look at the poor hard drive
and said "nah"

[brisk zinc]

you'd be surprised how much it takes to crash balatro even with mods

[hard gyro]

That was pretty quick

[brisk zinc]

cryptid mod antimatter deck tanked my fps to below 40 but never crashed

[hard gyro]

Not going to spoil the wordle for anyone

[hard gyro]

Ace of hearts

What was the game in Alice borderland

I know heart games are about emotions and betrayel

But i don't remember the game

[brisk zinc]

ante 20 still no retcon

fockin 'ell

[glad oriole]

you know the joker shown in the picture is spoilers i think

not sure

[brisk zinc]

i have the oppoturnity to do the funniest thing ever

[ornate cove]

Me after winning the run

[hard gyro]

It's not jimbo

[glad oriole]

hell yeah double chicot

[wild lily]

flashback to the....uhhh wait which episode again

[glad oriole]

well olay then

[barren geyser]

Silly

[ornate cove]

Perkeo on top

[brisk zinc]

if it disables the boss twice they cancel out

so the boss comes back

[hard gyro]

I just looked it up there was no ace game in the show lol

It's been so long since I have watched the show

My fav was the king of spades tho

It was pretty insane

[wild lily]

not even in season 2? damn i guess past me got gaslighted

[hard gyro]

Season 2 was about face card games

[glad oriole]

not how jt works tbh

[brisk zinc]

i know i'm joking

[hard gyro]

It's cool that all the games are symbolized by regular playing cards

I can't wait for season 3

[wild lily]

ngl the only thing that kept me watching is the sheer kill count
(i forgor names) the big guy just comes out and boom 80% players gone

[hard gyro]

That's the king of spades

[brisk zinc]

i'm down to below 60fps

i think stacked consumables affect that quite a bit

maybe i'm wrong

[hard gyro]

Foil chicot carrying fr

[brisk zinc]

couldn't live without the +50 chips

[hard gyro]

Yrp

He also nullifys any boss

[brisk zinc]

yea that's actually really good on this run

window would kill my run since most of my kings are diamond

[calm gull]

is this off topic

[wild lily]

damn maybe imma rewat- actually nvm

[hard gyro]

It's all kinds of topics

[calm gull]

yea okay then

anyone here who knows totk good

[hard gyro]

Season 3 is coming in September I believe

I heard they finished the source material so Idk what they will be doing

I didn't read the source material

[wild lily]

hope i dont HAVE to wait 1 week for a single episode to come out for the next 4 months
heavily stares at september 2024

[calm gull]

i gotta find 1 last shrine

[novel hearth]

"Im not playing face cards this run" The humble photochad:

[abstract parcel]

So here in Mexico, Domino's Pizza is doing Balatro-based publicity.
I forgot the influence Balatro has in the Spanish-speaking communities.

[hard gyro]

The plant is watching...menacingly...

[calm gull]

domanos

[novel hearth]

i didnt take the photo. destroyed too many face cards alr with trading card

[leaden walrus]

Chat, I'm new here so hi
I got a question
Is ante 12 a good ante to die on? I've been kinda stuck on it
Most of my winning runs unfortunately end on it

[calm gull]

mid

[hard gyro]

You can make face cards tho

[leaden walrus]

Aw :(

[brisk zinc]

actually useful trick:
you can move mimes after hitting 'play hand' to get max value from gold cards

[novel hearth]

only going to ante 8

[abstract parcel]

You can always be better. Learn from it, and remember: we all have goals we want to reach. Me personally? I'm happy with 100k, but I see others just... oh gods.

[hard gyro]

Unfortunately the moving thing doesn't work on mobile you have to move before playing to get the full effect

[brisk zinc]

STILL no retcon on ante 22

[brisk zinc]

☹️

[leaden walrus]

Well i just unlocked erratic deck and I've realised how easy it is to get flush fives with kings, so I'll try to work from that

[hard gyro]

Sad pepe

[abstract parcel]

Brutal.

[brisk zinc]

where's my fucking radioactive vhs

[leaden walrus]

I mean I just had a record run where I almost got to ante 13 but I ran out of cash to get the baron after rerolling constantly

[hard gyro]

Congrats you got the best deck

My favorite

[brisk zinc]

at this point i probably don't even need serpent to naneinf but i want to be sure

[hard gyro]

You will get pieroglyph lol

[wild lily]

hot take but endless mode is kind of lacking rn

[leaden walrus]

Real,
Personally before that I ran with the ghost deck since it was fun to go five of a kind aces

It's how I got to ante 12 most of the time

[abstract parcel]

I don't want to go back to... Black anytime soon.

[hard gyro]

Erratic is just fun since it makes the game more random and it fits the game since it's a roguelike

[hard gyro]

Black deck?

[abstract parcel]

Yeah, I got lucky with the run.

[wild lily]

time to go back to black deck gold stake

again

cause why not

[patent flame]

Black deck is the type of deck that u only play once in a lifetime

[abstract parcel]

NO....

[hard gyro]

C++ players disagree

[patent flame]

I hate u i struggle in black deck green stake as a 100 gs wins player

[hard gyro]

Glad I am not one of them

There is more to life than gold stickering every joker

[abstract parcel]

I took a break from Balatro, but will re-visit. The game is so good the only mods you'd add to modify the game are just to add random stuff or mechanics. Everything else? Fancy card skins.

What can I say? I love Balatro.

[patent flame]

U right

It's too good to quit

[wild lily]

then i come in and slap future me with 7 more gold stake black deck wins and say "tbis is your future. now suffer :)"

[leaden walrus]

Tbh I wish I could try mods
Too bad I'm on mobile & console

[hard gyro]

Balatro really pushes the ps5 to it's limits fr

8k 120 fps

[leaden walrus]

Bless PS+ for gifting me this glorious game on a random Wednesday after work

[hard gyro]

I really can't imagine how playing balatro with a controller feels

[leaden walrus]

It's... stiff? I guess?

[wild lily]

currently a break off from steam because uh
well my hard drive is begging for a clean up

[leaden walrus]

It's definitely slower than mobile or pc

[hard gyro]

You can modify game speed

From settings

[leaden walrus]

Nono, I don't mean the play

I mean movement

[hard gyro]

Yeah

[brisk zinc]

forgot to move the baron award!!!!

if this was my last hand i'd uninstall

[hard gyro]

Game just feels right for Mobile and switch honestly

[hard gyro]

You would throw away all your progress since there is no cloud save

[brisk zinc]

yeah

[leaden walrus]

I messed up like 10+ times on console by de-selecting a card on accident

[brisk zinc]

if i don't get serpent on ante 23 i stg

or retcon

[hard gyro]

I played balatro while I was traveling and on vacation and it was phenomenal

[brisk zinc]

because ante 24 is boss boss blind so i can't even reroll to serpent

[hard gyro]

It eats my battery like hell tho

[leaden walrus]

Yeah speaking of I just realised I'm on 7%

[brisk zinc]

i got fucking magic trick as the voucher

[leaden walrus]

Damn it sure do eat up my battery

[leaden walrus]

Sincerest apologies

It's truly never been more over

[hard gyro]

You dead?

[brisk zinc]

no

[hard gyro]

Just get the voucher tag

[brisk zinc]

i have 86 cryptids bruv i'm not dying

[hard gyro]

I forgot that existed

I usually never skip unless it's investment

[wild lily]

ppl be asking why tf do i put my brightness at 1 with energy saver
then i show them the game im playing

[hard gyro]

I have terrible econ management skills

[brisk zinc]

i skip often for arcana since my soul luck is insane

[hard gyro]

Hanged man over souls fr

Deckfixing

[brisk zinc]

should i just use all the cryptids rn

i have 81

[wide bolt]

nah hanging chad over souls

[leaden walrus]

Me hooking up to the national grid to enjoy a nice cozy game of balatro (blackout for 3 days in northwest UK)

[brisk zinc]

suuurely that's naneinf number

[hard gyro]

Go for it

[brisk zinc]

how do i organize my jokers for max score

[hard gyro]

Mime

[brisk zinc]

1 baron 2 mimes 4 copiers

[hard gyro]

Copied

Make all blueprints and brainstorm copy mime

And the other mimes make them last

[brisk zinc]

u sure?

[hard gyro]

Yep

[brisk zinc]

fuck it idc if this doesn't naneinf i've been on this run for almost 2 hours

i want dinner at some point

[hard gyro]

What you eating girl

[brisk zinc]

mcdonalds or subway

i'm lazy today so takeout

[wild lily]

i remember going on vacation
and brought my laptop secret (they were not happy)
side note: i suffered with magic deck for like 3 whole days that was the longest deck to complete

[hard gyro]

That's garbage

[brisk zinc]

yea i'm aware lol

[hard gyro]

Like eat something healtheir

[brisk zinc]

i'm making salad tomorrow

but it's almost 9pm so i'm not fuckign cooking

[wide bolt]

its 1pm for me bro

[hard gyro]

It's 8:31 here

Pm

Now it's 8:32 pm

[wide bolt]

stuntman on plasma deck is underrated

[hard gyro]

It's not

It's pretty known

[wide bolt]

oh

[hard gyro]

Yeah

[wild lily]

eh thats worse than xmults

[brisk zinc]

it's the biggest +chips joker in the game if we ignore scaling ones

[hard gyro]

Weeeee

[brisk zinc]

so yes it's very strong on plasma early-midgame

even late but not alone

[brisk zinc]

"if we ignore scaling ones"

[hard gyro]

You can't ignore Weeeee

[barren geyser]

[brisk zinc]

it's a scaling one

[wide bolt]

madness on black stake is also good

[hard gyro]

Ik

But you can't ignore him

He is phenomenal

He is so small

I tried to deckfix for him once

[wide bolt]

jimbo is the best joker trust

[brisk zinc]

i got him to almost +2000 once

that's my biggest wee

[wild lily]

so do we ignore odd todd with retriggers?

[hard gyro]

Weeeee

[brisk zinc]

no that's not scaling

[wide bolt]

bootstraps is good if u rich

[hard gyro]

So is bull

Econ scoring jokers aren't my fav

I don't manage econ too well

That's why i love vagabond

Did you know vagabond is the only joker that wasn't designed by localthunk?

The more you know right

[brisk zinc]

i want to be absolutely 100% sure about the joker order for optimal scoring

shouldn't i copy baron at least once?

even one is e221²

[hard gyro]

I told you

[brisk zinc]

math isn't my strong suit

[brisk zinc]

have you done naneinf before

[hard gyro]

Maybe

No

But i understand maths

[brisk zinc]

1 baron 4 mimes

surely

[hard gyro]

I don't like seeded runs

It limits my creativity

[brisk zinc]

mostly same but i want to get the big number once in my life

[hard gyro]

It doesn't get saved in stats I think

My highest score ever is 32 billion

[brisk zinc]

yea seeded doesn't save no

but i don't care about that

[dry bay]

so you do need to copy baron

[ornate cove]

Do the maths

[brisk zinc]

someone in #1156061354076155944 for this seed had a setup almost identical to this and naneinf'd with fewer kings in hand

i believe

see ya in 30 minutes after the hand procs 🫡

[dry bay]

right now you are at 2 scoring effects (steel and one baron) and 8 retriggers (inherent trigger, red seal, and 6 mimes)

that is 16 times scoring can occur per card

you want to balance triggers and scoring effects

[brisk zinc]

i have 3 barons 4 mimes with this setup

[dry bay]

if you have 5 scoring effects and 5 retriggers you get 25 scoring effects

uh let me look at your image

sorry was just typing

[brisk zinc]

i mean i have 158 kings in hand so surely that's enough

red seal steel

[hard gyro]

Nice rhymes man

[brisk zinc]

i don't want to have to do this again it's been 2 hours

[hard gyro]

Bye

[dry bay]

so now you have 4 scoring effects and 6 retriggers

[brisk zinc]

fps below 40 before i even play the hand

[dry bay]

copy the baron one more time

[brisk zinc]

?

[dry bay]

like it will probably naneinf right now

correct

[brisk zinc]

okay

time to absolutely tank my fps

[dry bay]

5 scoring effects (4 baron and steel), 5 retriggers (3 mime, red seal, inherent trigger)

[brisk zinc]

it is 20:46 rn

let's see how long this takes

[brisk zinc]

see i'm too stupid to do this math that's why i ask here lmao

[dry bay]

jesus I didn't see the first image with 150 kings

[brisk zinc]

yep 157 kings after playing the high card

i probably went a bit extra

[dry bay]

probably would have naneinf'd with copying only the mime lol

[brisk zinc]

i wanted to be sure because i am NOT doing this again lol

i was waiting for retcon for so long the cryptids just kept stacking up

[dry bay]

tbf also not on plasma deck so you do need a lot more

[brisk zinc]

yeah tru

[dry bay]

I've only been doing naneinf on plasma cause I'm trying to get it unseeded

[midnight crest]

So meny jokers

[brisk zinc]

anaglyph moment

[midnight crest]

Real

[brisk zinc]

i like how the music changes if the hand takes long enough to proc

[midnight crest]

Yeah lol

[brisk zinc]

e300 before the halfway point

this has to be it

[shy dove]

bwuh

what

[brisk zinc]

yep

[shy dove]

like to a new song?

[brisk zinc]

no it just slightly changes

like it does in packs and stuff

this is already past vanilla naneinf right?

[dry bay]

yes

[brisk zinc]

some random mod has bignumber enabled i think

[dry bay]

e308 is naneinf

[brisk zinc]

other than that this is vanilla

[brisk zinc]

oh wow i went VERY overboard

well i can order food while i wait for this to finish

[cinder pulsar]

how long is it at?

[brisk zinc]

been around 8 minutes now

[cinder pulsar]

so prolly another 8 then?

[brisk zinc]

something like that yeah

[cinder pulsar]

now do it again but at half game speed

lmfao

[brisk zinc]

fps dipped to 10 for a sec

[cinder pulsar]

PC probably sounds like a dusty PS4

[brisk zinc]

nah my pc is stronk

my gpu is ass but it's probably mostly cpu doing the heavy lifting since it's just math

managed to do a mcdonalds order while this goes on

[cinder pulsar]

perfect

[brisk zinc]

11 minutes

well over double the e for naneinf

[ebon island]

Once an invisible joker has been sold can it be found again?

[young bolt]

Hi

[cunning rune]

ya

[cunning rune]

hey

[young bolt]

Someone make a skibidi toilet mod pls

[ebon island]

Danke

[ebon island]

Dje

[young bolt]

Dje

[stiff hull]

Obelisk saves gold stake run: more at 11

Also, here’s a seed for a 4oak run I had. Foil trading card followed immediately by erosion in ante 1

[cunning rune]

Poly Obelsik is sexy

[brisk zinc]

walking into the casino with my own deck

[stiff hull]

But how even?

[brisk zinc]

perkeo, lots of copy jokers and cryptid

i like how i just naneinfed but can't even get past the next blind bc i'm out of cryptids

[warped hill]

aren't you only cashing out for like $5-10 though

[fickle thistle]

the poker dealer watching helplessly as i pull out nearly 267 ten pound steel cards

out of my pocket

and innocently ask "can i play with these"

[shy knoll]

hi balatro

[fickle thistle]

bye balatro

[shy knoll]

:(

im new

how do i complete more runs

i cant get past like ante 3-4 without dying unless i get incredibly lucky

[cinder marlin]

3-4

[shy knoll]

what

[brisk zinc]

sadly this won't be recorded as my best hand

[fickle thistle]

so no naneinf?

[brisk zinc]

it was

e308 is naneinf

[shy knoll]

wtfak does this mean

[brisk zinc]

i have bignumber from some mod

[shy knoll]

i just wanna know how to play videogame :c

[brisk zinc]

don't worry about naneinf if you can't get past ante 4 lol

[shy knoll]

no im just confused

[brisk zinc]

it's a score so high the game UI literally breaks

[shy knoll]

how did you make it that high

[brisk zinc]

seeded run with the best possible joker setup

[fickle thistle]

a LOT of insane work and dedication i'd say so

[shy knoll]

ah

im having trouble with the green deck

[cinder marlin]

hi

[brisk zinc]

don't make seeded runs sound impressive

[shy knoll]

i beat the red blue and yellow deck with some help from a friend

[fickle thistle]

my first naneinf was unseeded and it was in the school computer

[brisk zinc]

tho it did take over 2 hours

[fickle thistle]

so i feel much more powerful then most peasants 💪

[shy knoll]

is there a way to consistently win

[brisk zinc]

not really, it depends on what the shop gives you

[fickle thistle]

not really if you're attempting to get all jokers

[brisk zinc]

but there's a but

[cinder marlin]

4

[fickle thistle]

you mostly just need luck

[brisk zinc]

if you can manage econ well enough you can reroll the shop more to have a higher chance of good jokers

mostly it just takes practice and playing more until you learn the ropes

[shy knoll]

even when i do get decent jokers

i just dont win

im on a run right now with ante 1 sock and buskin

i just dont see myself winning this right now tho

[brisk zinc]

sock alone doesn't win games

you need to learn synergies

sock retriggers face cards so it works well with things like smiley face, which gives mult for each face card trigger

[shy knoll]

i got smiley face just now too

[brisk zinc]

that's good

winning with just one or 2 jokers is super hard

the hardest challenge in the game is the jokerless challenge

don't buy just any jokers, make sure they work together

[shy knoll]

im not concerned with challenged right now

[brisk zinc]

yea i'm just saying

[shy knoll]

im still learning

[brisk zinc]

you need more than sock

[shy knoll]

im trying to see if i can get death cards

to convert some normal cards into face cards

[brisk zinc]

see you're already learning

[shy knoll]

i just watch alot of balatro youtube

my luck is shockingly bad though

[autumn barn]

nice

[brisk zinc]

just make sure to buy the director's cut voucher if you see it or plant will kill your joker setup

[brisk zinc]

i'm still kinda mad i didn't get the completionist achievement despite having a 100% collection

[autumn barn]

also how rare is this?

[shy knoll]

i got that

[brisk zinc]

good good

[shy knoll]

should i go for negative fortune teller since ill be using alot of arcana packs

[brisk zinc]

if you see the plant coming up, make sure you have $10 saved up to reroll

[brisk zinc]

negatives are always good

they don't take space so at worst they give temperance value

[brisk zinc]

idk how rare but it's always cool

[autumn barn]

when it says write at least 5 sentences in school

[brisk zinc]

real

[shy knoll]

dude

im getting such shitty luck

[autumn barn]

?

me 2

[brisk zinc]

that's how the game feels sometimes

but once every 10 runs you get the dream run and that's what keeps me coming back

[autumn barn]

like i get some insane bad cards and no jokers bruh

[brisk zinc]

has science gone too far

[shy knoll]

jeez i am doing terribly

[young bolt]

They're not that hard to get y'know

[autumn barn]

lol cool

[brisk zinc]

let them be proud of an achievement

[autumn barn]

and?

[brisk zinc]

gah dam

[autumn barn]

yeah shes right
also i just downloaded is yesterday

[shy knoll]

yeah im gonna get killed by ante 4 again

nevermind i got a blueprit

run is saved ❤️

[brisk zinc]

send a screenshot

oh bp is great

[shy knoll]

should i put it next to sock & bunskin

[brisk zinc]

wait if you have bp it means you already won at least once

[shy knoll]

buskin

[brisk zinc]

unless you unlocked all

[brisk zinc]

show ur setup

[shy knoll]

yeah i told you i got some help from my friend for red blue and yellow

[brisk zinc]

ah

didn't see that

[brisk zinc]

yeah copy sock for sure

[autumn barn]

nothing is probably worse than this 2 images it one run (thats mine)

[uneven edge]

moving forward try not to fall into relying on cards for your scoring

[brisk zinc]

also open the mega buffoon you can afford it

[uneven edge]

since you’re extremely vulnerable to certain boss blinds doing that

[shy knoll]

i can 👍

[shy knoll]

i got director's cut

[brisk zinc]

they have vhs

[uneven edge]

find jokers that give you scoring from jokers themselves

[nova shore]

just 2 mult jokers, what did you expected?

[uneven edge]

the plant isn’t the only thing that can kill them lmao

[shy knoll]

hmmm blackboard

[autumn barn]

yeah (i wanted to reply to @nova shore

[shy knoll]

not that good for this run

[uneven edge]

blackboard is a 9/10 joker

[shy knoll]

but not with my deck

[uneven edge]

but your build doesn’t support it at all

[brisk zinc]

yea i know but trying to get your first win without knowing the game too well leads into these kinda situations so i'm trying to help em with what they have :3

mark and pillar are bad for face card builds but not necessarily deadly

[shy knoll]

16,720

i really need to start like

getting celestial packs

[uneven edge]

the eye the mouth the water the ox

run killers

[brisk zinc]

fair enough

[brisk zinc]

yes

[uneven edge]

the hook too

[brisk zinc]

oh right i always get the hook on baron builds

[shy knoll]

midas mask

[brisk zinc]

that shit kills people

irl

[shy knoll]

midas mask is so tuff

[uneven edge]

I mean just in general moving forward you should start prioritizing finding scaling jokers like scaling chip mult and x mult jokers

[shy knoll]

and scary face

this run might not be so bad

[uneven edge]

and always staying at interest cap

and not forcing any builds

[brisk zinc]

for future; it goes super good with the vampire

[shy knoll]

oh my god

i got pareidoila

[brisk zinc]

literally free xmult

[shy knoll]

however you spell it

all cards r face cards

gg

[brisk zinc]

oh congrats

[shy knoll]

what do i replace for it

[brisk zinc]

show

[uneven edge]

you don’t need it

[shy knoll]

why nor

[uneven edge]

because you can just play actual face cards

[uneven edge]

and if you need more

you create more

[brisk zinc]

me when someone asks why i have 70 hours on balatro in the last 2 weeks

[uneven edge]

by deck fixing

[shy knoll]

hmm

i guess

but i dont have much time to fix my deck

[nova shore]

what type of font family is that xd??

[uneven edge]

pareidolia is mid as fuck when it comes to scoring

[brisk zinc]

you're ante 3

you have nothing but time

[shy knoll]

fine

[brisk zinc]

i actually don't even know it came with the theme lol

[shy knoll]

time for the needle

[grim prism]

I WAS MADE FOR LOVING YOU BABY

[shy knoll]

im pretty confident i can do it

[brisk zinc]

needle has a lower score requirement

it's equal to the small blind

[shy knoll]

oh

freelo

[brisk zinc]

so just use your discards to get a good hand

[cinder marlin]

i need it

[shy knoll]

i have no idea what hand type i wanna play

[cinder marlin]

😭

[brisk zinc]

there's the run info button

[cinder marlin]

pizza🍕

[brisk zinc]

see which hand gives the most score and try to use as many face cards as possible with that build

[uneven edge]

I mean unfortunately since you’re doing a face card build that relies on the cards for scoring you’re gonna want to do a higher hand type

which isn’t ideal

[shy knoll]

fhfhuhh

[brisk zinc]

yea exactly

[shy knoll]

i dont have enough discards for this

[brisk zinc]

full house is pretty reliable

[shy knoll]

should i get the magic trick voucher

[uneven edge]

full house is not reliable at all

it’s the worst hand type

[uneven edge]

no it sucks

[brisk zinc]

40x4 base score on level 1

[shy knoll]

problem is

i cant really discard for that right now

becaause

yeah

i dont have enough

[sage merlin]

help?

[brisk zinc]

well that's a learning experience for ya

[ornate cove]

Buddies, do you know what a curi is?

[brisk zinc]

do you need the +4 from jimbo

and also do you really need chad

[ornate cove]

Goding chad

[sage merlin]

what do you mean

[brisk zinc]

what are you asking help for

[sage merlin]

do i get the chad

[brisk zinc]

yea exactly

[ornate cove]

Yuh

[brisk zinc]

if you think you need it i think jimbo has to go

[ornate cove]

Jimbo

[sage merlin]

who is jimbo though

[brisk zinc]

the normal joker

his name is jimbo

[ornate cove]

+4

[sage merlin]

the blueprint?

[brisk zinc]

no the one that's just called 'joker'

[ornate cove]

No buddy

[shy knoll]

is consellation any good for this run @brisk zinc

[ornate cove]

The first one

[shy knoll]

i suppose i am using quite a few celestial cards

[brisk zinc]

it scales pretty quickly but you need to buy planet cards to make it good

[half smelt]

Is this joker combo mid?

[brisk zinc]

which you should do anyway

[shy knoll]

thats what im doig

[sage merlin]

there is brainstorm, blueprint, canio, glass, and the ininite one

[ornate cove]

Fu

[cinder marlin]

no

[shy knoll]

ah

the plant

good game balatro

[brisk zinc]

constellation and hologram both give xmult for spending money which is usually very much worth it

pair that with astronomer and you're laughing

[ornate cove]

If i had a daughter, I would call her full house

[shy knoll]

i failed

beeccauuse

[brisk zinc]

☹️

[shy knoll]

i got back to back stupid run killers

[sage merlin]

none of them are just called 'joker'

[brisk zinc]

hopefully you learned something too

[shy knoll]

eh

not really

[brisk zinc]

this guy?

that's jimbo

[sage merlin]

thats "glass joker"

[brisk zinc]

OH

omg the foil tricked me

[sage merlin]

lolll

[brisk zinc]

i thought it was jimbo my bad

[brisk zinc]

yeye

[sage merlin]

hes at 10x

[brisk zinc]

anyway yea i don't think chad is worth then

unless your canio sucks ig

[sage merlin]

canio is 8x

[brisk zinc]

you already have retrigger from buskin and can't even sell it

[sage merlin]

🥲

ok goodbye chad

[brisk zinc]

don't cry i've had to skip soul cards because i couldn't sacrifice anything

[sage merlin]

ty for your help

[brisk zinc]

np

[shy knoll]

guh

i'm never getting a run like that again

[ornate cove]

Lie

[shy knoll]

nu uh

truth

[brisk zinc]

that wasn't even the best run you're getting TODAY

trust

i left my food delivery guy hanging for like 10 minutes bc i was chatting here and didn't see the messages 😭

[autumn barn]

LOL 😄

[autumn barn]

nah
never give up

thats why im still playing it

[ornate cove]

That's life

[autumn barn]

guys i have black deck (and the ones before it) what do i choose (i always choose blue but is smtng better than this?)

[brisk zinc]

there is no best

best is which one you prefer

for me it's ghost deck

but i'd recommend trying to unlock all of them to see which one you prefer

[autumn barn]

ok

[uneven edge]

the top 3 decks are yellow blue and abandoned

[brisk zinc]

also unlocking them all forces you to play more difficult stuff like higher stakes so it also helps you learn the game better

yellow and ghost are peak

[autumn barn]

why yellow it only gives 10$ at start (oh wait i understand)

[brisk zinc]

makes early game a breeze usually

[autumn barn]

yeah

ill try it

[azure rover]

Hi guys

[autumn barn]

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

[chrome wyvern]

Hii

[azure rover]

Hellow

[brisk zinc]

helo

[chrome wyvern]

Hiii i love u (I love Miku)

[autumn barn]

never saw someone get welcomed like this lol

also why u said hi guys and died lol

[tacit chasm]

first time getting this legendary joker any tips?

[uneven edge]

get rid of face cards lmao

[tacit chasm]

hmm will not do xD allready going for kings

[uneven edge]

you wanted tips

don’t ask for any if you aren’t going to follow through with them

[tacit chasm]

damn you woke up on the wrong side of bed today

[autumn barn]

he just asked

bruh

[uneven edge]

“any tips?” gives tips “no”

like what

[chrome wyvern]

Now u do

[autumn barn]

?

[chrome wyvern]

Nothing man I HATE MY ENGLISH

[nova shore]

He asked for advice, not an order

[autumn barn]

what did you wanted to say anyways

[chrome wyvern]

Dw It was nothing important 😭

I usually don't struggle with English but I can't evade errors since it's not my first language

Sorry😔

[uneven edge]

as I basically said there’s no point asking for tips if you aren’t going to follow through

[autumn barn]

also r u new to this game?

[nova shore]

Don't be so hard on yourself, just talk more.

[chrome wyvern]

Ty ^^

[nova shore]

yea tbh hes wrong too xd

[autumn barn]

"bruh be like"

[chrome wyvern]

No but I don't play a lot and also I'm bad playing lmao

[nova shore]

just play more

[chrome wyvern]

Ur solution to everything is practice

I like it tbh

[nova shore]

yea

[autumn barn]

i started yesterday
first massive fail on ante 7 lets go

[nova shore]

try to do a flush only run

[autumn barn]

OH LET ME TRY

[nova shore]

The checkred deck is the most preferable to use

[autumn barn]

yeah discards dead in first hand lol

[nova shore]

How do you run out of discards on the checkret?

checkred*

[autumn barn]

im on yellow

[nova shore]

oh makes sense

[brisk zinc]

baron and canio don't work together so you gotta choose one

one encourages destroying face cards while one does the opposite

[uneven edge]

do NOT do that

that’s how you fail

[young bolt]

Anyone can do it

[autumn barn]

i like pairs (pair, two pair, three of a kind, full house, four of a kind)
its easy to do

[autumn barn]

huh?

lol bro just wake up

[young bolt]

Four of a kind is NOT easy to do 💔

[autumn barn]

im talking about others

[brisk zinc]

pairs are goated on blue stake and higher

-1 discard? idc i probably have a pair in my hand without using any

[autumn barn]

got lucky lol

[rapid hill]

But I like going for harder difficulty so im doing five of a kind on blue stake and higher

[tacit chasm]

yeah i chose baron and died after xD

[autumn barn]

lol

[brisk zinc]

such is the way of life

[chrome wyvern]

I prefer full house

[young bolt]

It's fantastic

[autumn barn]

yeah its nice to have thing

so good

[chrome wyvern]

And I'm trying to do a high card run but it's impossible 😭😭

[brisk zinc]

high card is one of the best hands in the game if you can build around it

[autumn barn]

i once did five of a kind but dont have proof

[chrome wyvern]

We trust u bro dw

[autumn barn]

idk what dw means but thx

[brisk zinc]

i did this but i got the luckiest seed ever

[uneven edge]

don’t worry

[brisk zinc]

by the end of the run i had like 60 eris' with observatory

[chrome wyvern]

Ur so cool😭

[brisk zinc]

no i'm just lucky

[autumn barn]

should i grab this one
really feel like yes

[coral wigeon]

Cord

[rapid hill]

Yes

[autumn barn]

lol

[stiff hull]

How many aces you got?

[brisk zinc]

if it fits your build it's pretty good

[chrome wyvern]

That carried me through a lot😭

[rapid hill]

Yeah, Cord said Cord with a tag cord

[autumn barn]

also is rock good?

[stiff hull]

Stone cards can be good, but to really take advantage of it, you should lean into it HARD

[brisk zinc]

dwayne johnson is good yeah

[strange meadow]

scholar is a good one

very useful if you fix for aces

[stiff hull]

Level up high card as much as you can, just flood the deck with stone.

[autumn barn]

oh ok thx

[brisk zinc]

scholar carried my early game on this run

[uneven edge]

don’t do that

[brisk zinc]

ofc by the end it didn't do much

[uneven edge]

you don’t eat to bloat your deck

[autumn barn]

Y?

[stiff hull]

it’s not bloating if you use tower

[uneven edge]

bloating your deck is not something you should do

[stiff hull]

It’s all stone it doesn’t matter

[uneven edge]

I mean I just thought you meant adding stone

not replacing

since you aren’t flooding it

tower is different so i understand now tho

[stiff hull]

Adding stone shouldn’t matter anyway. In fact in certain situations it’s really good.

Medusa + stone joker is a goated combo. And if you get something like hologram you basically win instantly

Normally I would agree that bloating is bad, but since stone doesnt have a rank or suit it doesnt really matter

[autumn barn]

yeah

[stiff hull]

@autumn barn honestly it all comes with practice, you start getting a sense for when to pivot and to one.

[uneven edge]

It does matter if you’re ADDING stones to the deck

but I think we both understand that

[chrome wyvern]

I like how this server is like
+: "What should I do with this"
-: "Do that"
~: "don't do that"
And then they start an epic fight

[autumn barn]

what is royal flush anyways?

[uneven edge]

discard it

discard that hand

[chrome wyvern]

Man....

[uneven edge]

trust me

[nova shore]

not just this server, internet in general

[uneven edge]

you want to discard it

[autumn barn]

WHY DUDE

[zenith wadi]

youll get something

[uneven edge]

you unlock something nice

[nova shore]

discard

[zenith wadi]

if you discard it

[autumn barn]

ok

[brisk zinc]

you unlock ||the best joker in the game||

[chrome wyvern]

You will get a joker that I don't have but it do smth cool I guess

[brisk zinc]

arguably

[nova shore]

the second

[clear locust]

i think i’ve only made a royal flush once

[uneven edge]

nah

not arguably

[autumn barn]

ok fine

[zenith wadi]

i discarded it

[chrome wyvern]

I saw it more in this server than on all the internet

[zenith wadi]

one time

[uneven edge]

it’s a tier below blueprint tbh

[brisk zinc]

that's why i said arguably

i agree with you

[autumn barn]

got paper drawing joker

[clear locust]

blueprint better in basically every category

[brisk zinc]

but some will swear by bs idk why

[nova shore]

and that you haven't even gone to #🕹・game-discussion

[clear locust]

u won balatro

[stiff hull]

Great joker.

[shy dove]

ive had royal flush builds

[brisk zinc]

it's insanely good

[autumn barn]

..........

[uneven edge]

brainstorm before blueprint is funny

[brisk zinc]

yea idk why

[stiff hull]

Ok, I still think blueprint is better, because it works much better with xmult jokers.

[brisk zinc]

i think they just prefer the graphic design

[nova shore]

trust, that joker is the joker of the jokers

[uneven edge]

I mean everyone does but people think brainstorm is a close second behind it

[chrome wyvern]

What does it do?

[nova shore]

copy

[stiff hull]

Copies the leftmost joker

[nova shore]

its a joker, literally

[young bolt]

STOP WHAT YOURE DOING RIGHT NOW
Smash or pass?

[chrome wyvern]

AHHHH the blueprint

[nova shore]

the other one xd

[chrome wyvern]

SMASH ACTUALLY

[chrome wyvern]

What😦

[brisk zinc]

it's similar to blueprint

[clear locust]

smash!

[brisk zinc]

now you have 2 copying jokers

[stiff hull]

Pass. sorry I ain’t getting burned for that.

[clear locust]

burnt joker carries me so hard

[nova shore]

okok no spoilers

[clear locust]

that or trading card

[stiff hull]

Trading card I love you

[brisk zinc]

i mean the description tells you what it does but

sry

[young bolt]

Ragebait

[clear locust]

im really lame guys i clicked unlock everything 💔 💔 😞

im a fraud

[stiff hull]

Baseball card, trading card, business card, F***, marry, kill. Go

[halcyon flame]

kill business card, f baseball, marry trading card

i will fight anyone who disagrees

[young bolt]

Fish

[uneven edge]

business card is the obvious kill

[brisk zinc]

business card is kinda cool on baron builds but other than that i never take it

[clear locust]

what did business card do to you

[brisk zinc]

so i agree kill

[nova shore]

debt

[halcyon flame]

he always lets me down

bros hit rate is worse than bloodstone

[nova shore]

just use wraith
