[calm kestrel]

Going off the previously established rules of card reading blackboard shouldn't have any idea you have debuffed cards

[wintry halo]

why shouldn't it? it doesn't score straight from your held in hand cards. it just checks your hand, as do other jokers when it has an activation requirement

[calm kestrel]

Jokers that check your hand can't use debuffed cards either

Why can blackboard use debuffed cards

[wintry halo]

like what

the other jokers score from the cards, not from the joker itself

[calm kestrel]

Shoot the Moon, Baron, Mime

They're still looking for something

[minor badge]

A spade is a spade etc. whether debuffed or not as evidenced by flower pot usually working with non wild debuffs, no reason why a joker working along this logic shouldn't work unless it needs a card to score to work

[calm kestrel]

They can't find that something

A debuffed card is established to be a lack of something

[balmy junco]

so out of curiosity do we have an idea on when the patch is going to come out?

[calm kestrel]

Thus Blackboard should not be able to distinguish it even is anything

[wintry halo]

blackboards few "does this work" questions make sense in the case that it's not checking your scored hand unlike a majority of "if played hand" jokers.

it checks your hand to see if there are cards other than clubs or spades before activating.

no cards held in hand activates bb since it fills the requirements. debuffed red wild cards break the rule of activation. stone cards break the rule of activation.

this can apply to existing weird interactions like smeared c2 activating on hc. flower pot works on debuffed cards within the scoring poker hand because it checks the suits from the poker hand. its one bug is that debuffed wilds count as zero suits, as the code is stated to be.

[calm kestrel]

Stone cards exist in the eyes of the game

Debuffs don't

[wintry halo]

but they're not clubs or spades

and they're in your hand

[calm kestrel]

They're nothing they don't exist

[wintry halo]

they're clearly right there

[calm kestrel]

Blackboard shouldn't even be able to see them at all

[minor badge]

The game knows exactly what it's working with with a debuffed card

[wintry halo]

why not

that would make it even more complicated

[calm kestrel]

Because every other joker established debuffed cards just don't exist

[wintry halo]

matador

[calm kestrel]

Bus even lets you score debuffed faces p sure

[minor badge]

Debuffed cards very much exist, they just often do nothing because they stop cards from scoring, bus works as a debuffed face card will not score and for that to reset the card has to score

[wintry halo]

with that logic, how can you score something that doesn't exist

[calm kestrel]

They really should decide one way or the other tbh cause Matador shouldn't work either

[halcyon wolf]

you do it

[calm kestrel]

Doesn't exist in the eyes of jokers

Not the game itself

[lament tapir]

hi guys

[minor badge]

Matador becomes arbitrarily worse if we implement this arbitrary idea that debuffed cards don't exist when evidently they do

[calm kestrel]

All cards shouldn't work for flower pot

Matador shouldn't work, especially since you didn't activate the boss the boss did that without you doing anything

[ember root]

🤔 When you put it that way I kinda agree

It would be a reasonable nerf to Blackboard all things considered

[wintry halo]

but it does. a bunch of jokers profit from their "disabilities" they obviously do exist. cutting existing cards via immuhlate and hang man or whatever makes them "not exist"

[calm kestrel]

It would be a buff because it can't identify if they're spades or clubs or not cause it can't see them

[wintry halo]

that ruins consistency purposes that are already existent in the game via "played hand contains" descriptions

[calm kestrel]

It'd be like you just have a smaller handsize to Blackboard

[ember root]

Maybe

[minor badge]

If we go by this logic any card played that does not actually contribute to the hand (extra cards thrown for a pair or something) also does not exist

[calm kestrel]

They don't in most situations you're correct

Unless the joker specifically states otherwise (aka splash)

Blackboard doesn't explicitly state is has an ability that almost no jokers have

Splash does

Splash breaks the game rules but it openly announces the fact it does so

[minor badge]

But evidently the game knows exactly what these extra, non-scoring cards are, just as it knows all the information about debuffed cards still

[calm kestrel]

The game ≠ the jokers

We're talking about what the jokers see

[wintry halo]

the game likes my obby licks tech on certain boss blinds

[calm kestrel]

The game obviously knows everything but the jokers don't

As the game shows

Their ability to know things gets interrupted by bosses

[wintry halo]

im not high enough to consume this form of literature yet

[calm kestrel]

So in this context

Non scoring cards, infact, don't exist

Unless a joker says otherwise explicitly

[minor badge]

The earlier Red Card slander is beginning to make a lot of sense...

[calm kestrel]

I still think red card is fine

I just can't justify putting it above something like supernova or bus

Money is power, they let you keep your money

You can scale them without necessarily needing to spend money which snowballs into more and more money

[wintry halo]

not me

opportunity cost/value/mult is king

[calm kestrel]

I'll still take a red card but if you put that red card next to a bus

[wintry halo]

even if it has a startup lag

[calm kestrel]

I'm taking bus

[wintry halo]

a1 bus
a3 rc

[calm kestrel]

If it's starting to head towards mid game maybe yeah

But they also put it above supernova

Supernova starts higher and still scales further

[minor badge]

Can't believe red card rewards strong econ. Wonder what else in the game would dare do such a thing.

[wintry halo]

too many good players use these two mult scalers for me to ignore them when doing rotating streaks and what not

[calm kestrel]

That's insane to me

[wintry halo]

has a perishable chance, isn't hand agnostic, dies to two boss blinds, has conflict with some jokers, isn't pivotable

[calm kestrel]

You're acting like I actively hate red card

No I simply said they rate it too highly and discussed the shortcomings of red card compared to the other jokers

[umbral hazel]

I'm jonkling it 🌨️

[calm kestrel]

Focusing hands is actively better than diversifying btw

Unless you get obelisk

[wintry halo]

tbf red card is practically near its highest in terms of versatility since it's only econ focused (while increasing your odds to find econ/value)

[calm kestrel]

Lets you focus planets better

[wintry halo]

that's not gonna realistically happen when a couple of boss blinds absolutely blunder its existence

planets are not guaranteed every shop

[calm kestrel]

The only boss that actively is a pain for planets is the arm

[wintry halo]

obelisk is a fairly versatile joker with current unconditional scoring being decent and also immune to perishable debuff

[calm kestrel]

Obelisk is good yeah

[wintry halo]

eye, water, flint, mouth (on larger hands) while not direct, is limiting on spammable poker hands

[calm kestrel]

Flint punishes unleveled hands more than leveled

Water?

I don't need discards anyways

Eye

I forgot what it does I don't really memorize boss names

[wintry halo]

flint punishes scoring based on planets if planets make up a majority of your total score

[wintry halo]

you can still whiff on pairs with water with nova being the main source of scoring

[calm kestrel]

Well yeah I suppose if you're hyper specializing only planets

[wintry halo]

the other 3 common mult scalers dont

[wintry halo]

most straights and pairs do that, it's usually their chip source if they don't want to dedicate a joker slot in their final build for chips

or 2 pairs

[calm kestrel]

"Ah damn I missed the most common hand in the game, the other jokers are better cause they magically make other hands appear"

[wintry halo]

second most

and it's only one of many flaws so we can talk about the others

[calm kestrel]

Most common actually viable hand

[wintry halo]

but not most common draw

upon probability

[calm kestrel]

Technically no but who cares if you draw high card 100% of the time if it isn't good (in most contexts)

That's giving highcard a participation award

[tribal knoll]

looks inside

[calm kestrel]

P much

The good seeds always have to happen on white stake

Unfortunate

Oh that's a challenge deck

M

[wintry halo]

which if water shows up and your chips from planets/mult from nova is what you need to spend your 4 hands on scoring, nova has a higher fail rate since pairs normally want to utilize those hands. ive seen ppls streaks end from facing a specific scenario a few times

technically bus also has this issue but that's just a water example

[tribal knoll]

i'm not 100% sure but i think seeds arent affected by the stake level? just that some might or might not have perishable/rental/eternal

[calm kestrel]

They aren't

Stake additions are added to the jokers

That's it

[wintry halo]

seeds are only affected by specific decks and current discoveries

if not already fully discovered

[calm kestrel]

A seeded run doesn't count in the game's eyes tho, so reusing a seed does nothing

Which is

What makes getting a crazy seed on a white stake run unfortunate

But it's a challenge actually

So pog

Free challenge

[tribal knoll]

lvl 38 high card by the end of big blind a8 or 3 copies of photo

hmmm

[calm kestrel]

Any spectral?

[tribal knoll]

no ectos unfortunately

[calm kestrel]

Damn

[tribal knoll]

feel like lvl 38 high card could go crazy too

[calm kestrel]

Perhapsss

[tribal knoll]

this seed is so cracked

[wintry halo]

ricky my favorite straights joker 👅

[calm kestrel]

You do want a higher base to multiply

[tribal knoll]

plus i dont have any blue seals so

i think i'm going with the burnt joker and hopefully fnd an ecto and another invis joker

[tribal knoll]

yorick can be nice

[wintry halo]

there was some irony in my statement

[calm kestrel]

Yorick is the most "I don't care what you do" Joker ever

Merry Andy and Rick in the same seed is crazy

[wintry halo]

tbf this run had red and gift card as a main econ/value source finder

and runner

would've died early otherwise

[calm kestrel]

I'm ngl

Part of the reason I permanently stopped playing white stake

Is so I'd never get Soul on white stake again

[tribal knoll]

thats a valid reason

[wintry halo]

and then threw my caked up runner for a knockoff runner

[calm kestrel]

I hateeee getting crazy shit on white stake like wth man

I don't need this stop it

[wintry halo]

making stupid shit work on gs has better neuron activity over white

[calm kestrel]

It really does

Making Baron Mime happen on white stake is boring

Getting it to happen on gold stake?

That's exciting

[wintry halo]

👅

[calm kestrel]

Waaait

Is the eye no repeat hand types

[wintry halo]

yeah

[calm kestrel]

Ah

I never remember their names lmao

They all blend together usually

[wintry halo]

it gets easier when you're 4 figures of hours into the game😪

page 1 jokers take a while outside of the ones you actually use

[tribal knoll]

ight only inflation left

[calm kestrel]

To be fair

I have around 1k

I just normally don't care about the boss

[tribal knoll]

hope that challenge isnt that bad

[wintry halo]

i-

[calm kestrel]

We neeeeeed community challenges

Pleaseeeee Thunk

[tribal knoll]

like the ones in btd?

[calm kestrel]

Yess

[tribal knoll]

yeah

that would be pretty cool

[calm kestrel]

Let you choose higher stakes too

[tribal knoll]

like "start with these jokers" kinda stuff or "max x jokers"?

or modified blind stats

[calm kestrel]

Let people go ham honestly

[tribal knoll]

afaik in btd they can restrict about.. anything

[calm kestrel]

All of thaat

They just can't add a joker or consumable or anything

Obv

[tribal knoll]

i think community challenges with % of success or fail rate would be a pretty cool thing, maybe it can be a mod aswell

there's alreay multiplayer so perhaps there's a possibility it can be built into a mod

[calm kestrel]

I accidentally turned my keyboard into my japanese one and forgot how to turn it off cause I haven't used it in a bit

[tribal knoll]

though he's already stated there won't be multiplayer, i assume that implies anything of sorts that comes similar

[tribal knoll]

same havent used mine inawwhile

[calm kestrel]

It's not really multiplayer tbf

It does, however, add infinite replayability

A mod happening for community challenges sounds more realistic tho

Since there's still server costs and stuff

[tribal knoll]

maybe you can just download each challenge instead of making it a server side thing

[calm kestrel]

Or maybe the mp team can add it

[tribal knoll]

kinda like mc maps

and the mod's job is to transform that data into a new challenge on the challenge tabs

[calm kestrel]

Maybe just have an offical page for em

[tribal knoll]

though that does sound more complicated

[calm kestrel]

Nah that's

Very realistic

Actually

[tribal knoll]

i'm gonna get into balatro modding after i get c++ done tbh

[wintry halo]

basically what sts has

[calm kestrel]

It's just some web integration

[tribal knoll]

and learn pixel art

[tribal knoll]

it sounds complicated for the people wanting to play, the mod owner would have to manually check each submission aswell

so if its like a really big mod there'd be old maps all the time prob

[calm kestrel]

I'd be more than willing to help, especially for a vanilla style mod

[calm kestrel]

Not really

It can just link right to the website and boom, it works

Just run some whitelist/blacklist flags in the code to check for certain things you don't want I'd presume

[tribal knoll]

but if its something you can just download and paste into a folder besides having to perhaps manually check stuff every so often, i don't think its an impossible idea

balatro multiplayer is already crazy

[calm kestrel]

Like "Hey you can't.. put a virus in here" or something

Just a sort of code checker

I mean okay I guess that's kinda complicated- but pretty realistic

It's all stuff that has been done

Elsewhere

[tribal knoll]

Yeah dont think it'd be borderline impossible. a server side thing has already been done, the balatro mod manager for example. Could be a different and similar program asw. Its also safer that way

that mod manager is kinda useless nowdays tho the dev abandoned it i think

[calm kestrel]

The easiest thing to do would be have it on a server and just

Put in your additions and what you can do that way

It would be more expensive tho

[rare yew]

Hello chat

I come bearing no leaks, apologies

Take this egg instead

[compact stump]

gimme some more ill make an omelette

[rare yew]

If you had Egg and every day of playtime in Balatro equated to one round, the total playtime of the game across all platforms would make the egg worth $18 million

[compact stump]

When did you calculate that.

[rare yew]

Oh wait no more than that

[wise lantern]

So the value of a faberge egg? (I hope I spelt that correctly)

[rare yew]

Let me redo my math

[compact stump]

that would make a good swashbuckler

[rare yew]

$45 million

That’s an expensive egg

[compact stump]

that first number was a lil bit off

[rare yew]

Within a factor of 10

Close enough

Same e

[compact stump]

fair enough

[tribal knoll]

if only temperance didnt have a money cap..

[compact stump]

swash doesnt

[tribal knoll]

strongest ceremonial dagger

[rare yew]

It’s been played for ~41,000 years collectively

[compact stump]

45 million mult can be gooood

[tribal knoll]

at that point thats not a dagger

probably a dragon slayer sword

[compact stump]

in just a few years thats crazy for an indie right?

[rare yew]

I dunno I bet Stardew has been played a lot more than that

[tribal knoll]

vampire survivors aswell prob

[compact stump]

stardew has been around a looot more, and its highk more mainstream

[rare yew]

Hmmm I bet it’s close to VS

I can kinda check

In Gamalytic

[compact stump]

idk if i should check VS everbody saying its crazy good buuut idk

[rare yew]

They have approximations for total units sold and average playtime

I like VS, game good

[tribal knoll]

its pretty fun

i havent played it since i got balatro though

the dlc seems interesting

i managed to get balatro and the dlc

[stray vault]

VS?

[rare yew]

VS has 12.2 million owners on steam, 30 hour average playtime. But they’re on mobile too

[compact stump]

ill see some videos later see what is abt

[rare yew]

So hard to say for sure but def more playtime on steam

[rare yew]

Vampire Survivors

[stray vault]

Ah ic

[compact stump]

what are top 3 indies for yall?

[rare yew]

I’m such a normie gamer lol

I think my favourite indie game was Roadwarden. I really loved that game

Isaac is a classic, definitely up there

[compact stump]

same ngl, for me it would beee

1 balatro
2 Project Zomboid
3probablyy Hotline Miami 1/2

[rare yew]

Can I pick my game or is that cheating

[compact stump]

i reeeally want to play isaac, never got the chance

balatro has to be in the top three

[rare yew]

I mean it was made for me

And I played the shit out of it

[compact stump]

like u saiid before, its ur baby lol

[tribal knoll]

balatro, hotline miami and VS in that order

[stray vault]

My top 3 is balatro slay the spire and stardew valley ig

Not in order

[rare yew]

Ohhh StS is a good one too

I’d have to look through my steam library

[compact stump]

hotline miami is so good

[tribal knoll]

the ost is top nothc

top notch

i love the paris song

its quite the banger

[compact stump]

im a simplre guy crystals and hydrogen

those are bangers

[tribal knoll]

ive been invested into c++ing balatro tho so i havent really played it much lately

[tribal knoll]

certified hood classics 100%

[compact stump]

fr

[rare yew]

Does Minecraft count as indie

[tribal knoll]

back in the day it was ig

[rare yew]

Like if I played it 2010-2015

[compact stump]

ig

[tribal knoll]

yeahh

i think it counts back then

[rare yew]

Then that’s up there for me

[granite urchin]

Nubbys number factory 💪

[tribal knoll]

oldest mc version i ever played was prob 1.5.4

[compact stump]

the ost of minecraft is perfect too

at least the c418 ones

[tribal knoll]

i remember a version where there was no nether too

[rare yew]

My high school homeroom teacher bought me Minecraft when I was in grade 11, I gave him a $20 bill

[granite urchin]

C418 was making the best ambient music for no reason

[wise lantern]

Lena did pretty good too

[tribal knoll]

aria math is so nice

[compact stump]

YES

i get nostalgic

[granite urchin]

Mice on venus is unironically in my top 20 songs oat

Means alot to me

[compact stump]

best memories

[wise lantern]

Sweden is just sooo good

[compact stump]

old minecraft was a bibe

[rare yew]

I think it was the Minecraft alpha

Before the beta?

It was already huge then

[granite urchin]

I first played the lite mobile version when i was about 6?

[rare yew]

1.1 or 1.2

[granite urchin]

That was in uhh 2011 i think

[compact stump]

i wonder if c418 was hired in fiverr too lmao

[rare yew]

Was fiverr around back then lol

[granite urchin]

Yea it was huge everyone in my school that had anything that could run it would play it

[compact stump]

i think it was created in 2010(?)

ill check

february 2010 yeah

[granite urchin]

Im pretty sure he was just someone notch like knew

Like his brother was notch’s friend or sumn

[compact stump]

damn

[granite urchin]

I like some of his modern projects too

He still produces electronic music and its a vibe

Very different from mc soundtrack tho lol

Did yall play trove?

[compact stump]

didnt know he still producing

[lapis walrus]

TIGSource 😉 they were both forum users

[granite urchin]

Ah thats what it was

[compact stump]

but yeah making an ost for a game has to be very different that making a normal project

[granite urchin]

Yea my friend made his game ost himself and its so different from his normal music

[lapis walrus]

Twas also I believe the same forum that the demo releases were initially shared

[compact stump]

now i wonder, is LouisF still producing?

[rare yew]

I scoured the whole internet for like a month trying to find samples that came close to what I was envisioning for the OST

Found like 3 candidates, Louis was my first choice

[granite urchin]

Did you ever try to make it yourself before realizing it was out of your abilities?

[compact stump]

he made the PERFECT ost for balatro

[rare yew]

Yeah he’s done a couple other things, I think he’s working on a game himself possibly?

[granite urchin]

Ik u said u remixed the main theme for the alternative themes

[compact stump]

it just fits so good

[rare yew]

I was at a crossroads when it was time to make an OST because in order for me to make it I’d likely have to spend a year noodling around with thing I didn’t understand to get a crappy result

[compact stump]

oh actually? i did some research and couldnt find much of his music

[rare yew]

I really want to learn to make an OST myself if I make another game after Balatro

[compact stump]

do you plan on making another roguelike in the future?

[granite urchin]

I think it would be interesting to see what u come up with

[rare yew]

But for Balatro I decided it would be fine to give up control of that part of the game to someone who would do a much better job

[compact stump]

agreed

[rare yew]

I might not do another public release, haven’t decided yet

[granite urchin]

If u were to make another game would it still be a pixelated retro aesthetic or would u switch up the art direction

The art direction is one of my fav parts or balatro

[rare yew]

I don’t know, this was the first time I’ve done pixel art

All my other projects were different

[granite urchin]

I think i remember u saying that on one of the interviews i saw

[compact stump]

i think we would all love to seea lil gameplay of your projects, if it isnt for public release thats fine ngl

[rare yew]

I like keeping them for me though, I feel like I lose a bit of the magic when I show people what I work on

[granite urchin]

I think that you making something so stylized really set a precedent for indie devs like since balatros success ive seen so many games come out with their own artistic voice and vibe its cool

[compact stump]

thats understandable, its yours after all

[granite urchin]

I said it earlier but nubbys number factory has a very cool aesthetic that it is very loyal too

Same with things like clover pit even tho it is very inspired by buckshot roulette and other mike klubnika projects

[rare yew]

He’s an artist! I think he was in school to be an art teacher wasn’t he? He comes by it honestly

[storm karma]

4 zeros?

Dude

[spark atlas]

Your game is so cool localthunk

[storm karma]

Thats like a year

[granite urchin]

Truth nuke

[rare yew]

4 figures is 3 zeros

[versed cipher]

wow first time i've seen you online and active

[storm karma]

Oh

[compact stump]

cloverpit has its own vibe tho

[granite urchin]

It does

I love clover pit too

Im so excited to see what other things come out in the future

[compact stump]

me too

[granite urchin]

Im waiting to see what the next big art movement is in general

I paint alot and i tend to stick to surrealism but i love to keep up with what the world is doing

[compact stump]

i got a few friend hooked to cloverpit and balatro and then they do the same for others

its like a virus spreading

[rare yew]

I used to draw a ton, pen and ink

[compact stump]

but for indie roguelikes

[stray vault]

Balatro is addictive

[rare yew]

I want to get back into that hobby

Let me see if I have pics handy

[stray vault]

Balatro is easy to learn and satisfying to play at the same time

So like ppl get hooked easily

[compact stump]

i would love to leanr how to draw

i love drawing

but i cant for shit

[granite urchin]

I used to love pencil drawings when i was younger but then i switched to digital for awhile. Never picked up pen and ink

[compact stump]

tf

[rare yew]

Here are some I’ve shared in this discord before

[stray vault]

Beautiful

[granite urchin]

What a dope style holyy

[rare yew]

I have a sketchbook I haven’t quite filled

[compact stump]

i was NOT expecting that

[wise lantern]

They are b-e-a-utiful

[compact stump]

thats so pretty

[rare yew]

I took a break from game dev for a few years around 2019 and took pen and ink drawing more seriously

I did it a lot

[granite urchin]

Here is my most recent painting fs not as impressive as all that tho

[desert wadi]

gold stake ghost deck win

[granite urchin]

U should pick it back up

[desert wadi]

sadly had to sell marble joker to beat verdant leaf 😭

no gold sticker on marble joker

[granite urchin]

This was for a frinds birthday its just a quick portrait tho

[proper merlin]

localthunk gotta be the best developer ever 🥹

[compact stump]

how much time did you spent on those?

[compact stump]

definetly

1.1 can wait

[rare yew]

Anywhere from 10-40 hours

[compact stump]

JOKING)))))))))))))))))

[stray vault]

I dont see u have any scoring on card jokers

Why sold the marble joker

[compact stump]

joking again, take ur time)

[desert wadi]

stone cards

i didnt get a single hand level

[granite urchin]

I love when im working on a piece and hours just disappear

Like 7 hours just gone to the art

[stray vault]

I see

[granite urchin]

Good feeling

[compact stump]

that just has to be satisfying

[stray vault]

I wish i would have fun in working

[rare yew]

I stopped pen and ink right around when I picked up Balatro dev actually

[stray vault]

Sadly the work that I love doing and enjoy turns into nightmare the more invested im in

[compact stump]

to loose urself in ur drawings and chill for some hours

[stray vault]

🙁

Like if it involves money things start to be less fun

[compact stump]

you should definetly draw again

[granite urchin]

Recently my time has been split between writing painting making music and my day job

[stray vault]

In my case I had to make slops to keep up with the work

[granite urchin]

Wish i had more time for games recently ive been playing less and less as i get older

[rare yew]

I play very few games now too, makes me feel a bit guilty

I’ve been trying to read more though

[stray vault]

The good thing is that's the sign of u having life ig

Im on the contrary play more often these days

Cuz im depressed

[granite urchin]

When i do give myself a break i try to either watch movies or read books cus i think i consuming media makes the media i produce better

[granite urchin]

What genre do you lean towards?

[rare yew]

Uhhh everything right now, just trying a lot of variety. Read Foundation this weekend and just finished Flowers for Algernon today

I guess I lean sci fi

Also trying to read some classics

[granite urchin]

Wow im sorry and envious

Flowers for algernon made me depressed for a few days after i finished it

[rare yew]

It’s gutting

One of the best books I’ve read

[granite urchin]

I appreciate it when authors are unforgiving though

Cormac mcarthy is like that with alot of his books

[granite urchin]

Its one of a kind for sure

[rare yew]

It’s one of 3 books I’ve given 5/5 stars lol I really loved it

Wait 2 books

[granite urchin]

I agree it is perfectly executed

[rare yew]

Other was Endurance: Shackletons incredible voyage

Bonkers story

[granite urchin]

I havent read it ill put it on my list

Im rereading the road rn for the third time

[rare yew]

That’s on my list too!

I’m reading Slaughterhouse 5 rn

[granite urchin]

Its my personal favorite book

[granite urchin]

Ooh my friend was talking to me about that

I havent read it but its like historical fiction right

[rare yew]

Yeah

[granite urchin]

How r u liking it?

[rare yew]

I dunno I just started

[inland tide]

Ok that's amazing

[rare yew]

LOVE the writing though

[granite urchin]

Oh my god same i spend an unhealthy amount of my time writing

[rare yew]

I mean like the prose

[granite urchin]

But its ok because im an author so i kind of should be doing that

Ohh lmao sorry

The writing style

[rare yew]

Yeah haha

[granite urchin]

Its not a super serious book right? I cant remmber if its supposed to be a satire or not

[rare yew]

I meaaan

It’s sort of about a WW2 firebombing he lived through

But told in a fictive twist

With sci fi elements?

[granite urchin]

Is it a first person book?

[rare yew]

No

I just started so I don’t know much

Anyway I’m gonna go read before bed!

Good run fr easy win

Painted deck was helping with consistency a fair bit then my entire deck became 7s basically

Ouija is so huge on painted

[glad oriole]

vagabond hate in server chat

haha classsic

[glad oriole]

truth

[calm kestrel]

I don't typically like Vagabond but you have to take it when it makes sense to do so

I needed a lot of deck fixing

[glad oriole]

it makes sense to take vagabond in the early game usualky

[calm kestrel]

Vaga offered that

[glad oriole]

thats when hes the goatedest

[calm kestrel]

I also got a blueprint

Sooo

That sweetened the deal a little

I was lowkey so close to playing balatro on a crt tv today but I bought the wrong flipping wire

so sad man

[forest carbon]

pair gaming 🔥 🔥 🔥

[main turtle]

O want portrait mode

I**

[meager dagger]

i think you can opt out forced landscape mode when compiling balatro?

[main turtle]

In MT phone The game just give me a Black screen

[sacred hatch]

Clanker spotted

[main turtle]

Bro im Just poor

There's no way to use that mod on a cell phone, is there?

[meager dagger]

pretty sure you can import your pc mods aswell

[main turtle]

The one you need, the "balatro mobile maker".

I see

[main turtle]

MT Pc is broke 😭

[meager dagger]

what?

[main turtle]

I bought the game on both platforms but I still wanted to find a way to play it in portrait mode, but anyway, thank you so much for helping me, I'll try using the app that forces the screen.

[meager dagger]

like i said if you use the balatro app maker you can force portrait mode with it

[main turtle]

The problem is that the app maker doesn't have a mobile version.

At least

[meager dagger]

huhhh

[main turtle]

He has ????

[meager dagger]

are you on ios?

[grave socket]

do you think 1.5 hrs will be enough to see if I like balatro?

[stray vault]

Maybe not

[forest carbon]

what do i sell to not die ( im barely scoring but we ball so not taking isnt an option)

[cloud rain]

Burger

[forest carbon]

you took too long

im ded

[cloud rain]

of course it was yorick

[forest carbon]

ye

[cloud rain]

You saw it was yorick and didn’t sell burglar

???

[forest carbon]

i was dead anyways

[cloud rain]

mmmm ok then ….

[forest carbon]

i wouldnt score enough

red deck isnt the best for pairs anyways unless banner

sold the duo used wraith at 11$ and got the duo

ima crash out

[exotic sparrow]

maybe you should accept the duo cause its a good joker

[forest carbon]

im playing straights

and i lost

[exotic sparrow]

Why would you play straights with a foil two pair joker

[forest carbon]

one was for chipss and i got him temporary and the rare was fom the skip tag and last thing i had straights leveled up

[rough skiff]

Luck is everything in this game, dosnt matter how skilled u are if u get trash u will lose regardless, so if u don’t like that don’t even think about it, if u like gambling then yeah

[sacred hatch]

Guys, be honest, is a Blank joker useless

[neat narwhal]

no

-1 joker slot may be usefull

[zenith carbon]

It gives abrstarct joker value

Abstract

[stoic ibex]

I am being ragebaited by the erratic deck

[pastel robin]

Potential gift card synergy

[zenith carbon]

Damn ive never had erratic be bad

[calm kestrel]

Blank Joker actually makes all your cards rankless and give 12 chips each

[stoic ibex]

looks inside
majority is heart
didnt draw enough heart

[calm kestrel]

Or give negative chips actually

[stoic ibex]

Aaaaaand round 1 ante 1 bp

This game is taunting me

[calm kestrel]

Cause that's just a free 5 oak button

Lmao

[sacred hatch]

Dagger bait

[pastel robin]

Ooh true

[sacred hatch]

Swash, Pirate...

[calm kestrel]

Blank Joker - All scoring cards are rankless and give -5 (?) chips when scored

[sacred hatch]

Mehhh, It's blank, it does nothing

[calm kestrel]

Gives 5 oak/flush 5 access

With a downside

[pastel robin]

I think blank should do absolutely nothing

No joker effect

Would be cool to see what could be don't with it

[calm kestrel]

That's worse than Jimbo

[pastel robin]

Yea

[calm kestrel]

Not good design

[barren cape]

What’s the point

[sacred hatch]

That's the point

[pastel robin]

It would be really funny

[sacred hatch]

The humble Blank voucher

[calm kestrel]

Funny sure but not good design

[calm kestrel]

Blank Voucher actually does something

[pastel robin]

Absolutely

[calm kestrel]

It unlocks antimatter

[sacred hatch]

By doing nothing

[calm kestrel]

It does something

Directly

It unlocks antimatter

[barren cape]

It has a point

[calm kestrel]

You invest $10 for the possibility to see antimatter

[sacred hatch]

Not on its own, buying it doesn't change a thing in the run, same with Blank, ignore the fact that it unlocks Antimatter, that's an achievement, not a direct purpose

[calm kestrel]

It is a direct purpose

[flat lantern]

Finally got my tv in my new room

[calm kestrel]

The point is to make you invest 10 bucks on a possibility

[flat lantern]

Balatro time

[calm kestrel]

Of seeing something

Blank Voucher is just gambling in the gambling game

Even if Gros Michel did nothing (albeit with a higher chance to go extinct)

It would have a purpose

Because it'd still unlock something else

"blank joker" with nothing else attached is just bad design

[stoic ibex]

Masterful 1 in 2 chance, Bloodstone

[wise shale]

Hey I'm pretty new to the game and I wanted to ask how I could improve. I have beaten ante 8 on the first 5 decks but I can not really win consistently so if anyone has some tips or videos on how I could improve it would help a lot

Been enjoying it a lot so far though. I just kinda keep losing

hi guys

i like balatro

[bitter falcon]

I need to get back into it. I took a month or two off. I’m just getting back

[simple cosmos]

when i first got it i had no understanding of it and took me weeks before getting to ante 8

then i took a couple months of

and now im in the deepest rabbit hole with several hundred hours invested in cards that makes nice noises

[violet thistle]

Loud and proud ahh statement

[bitter falcon]

I got green stake on all decks and most black stake and a few blue. I take a break from time to time and come back even stronger. Last few times I came back and the first try I win a stake I had trouble with

[violet thistle]

Wouldn't be suprised if fortnite got a collab with balatro tbh

[lament tendon]

ive been wanting balatro in dbd since they added the dbd face cards

[cedar echo]

Bro so wants in the team 💔

[violet thistle]

Real

Truly a good day to be a dbd and balala fan

[simple cosmos]

jumped in 6 months ago, im in too deep to leave

[violet thistle]

Nah gng leave him sitting on the bench

[cedar echo]

I did 28 times already

[violet thistle]

Real

[cedar echo]

9 months for me

[bitter falcon]

It was burnout for me. I only played it for so long that I just had to not play it for a week or two sometimes. Then I came back and was fine again.

[cedar echo]

I love Burnout

[bitter falcon]

That’s how you practice

[cedar echo]

Paradise City

[simple cosmos]

im wondering when i will get burnout, as ive felt i began to burn out many times but then when i tried to stop playing,. I got a sudden earge a few hours later

[bitter falcon]

Ive been playing that but I meant burnt out of repetitive things over and over in short times. Funny enough burnout was the game I played on my balatro break

[cedar echo]

You should add me

Start a party?

[bitter falcon]

Burnout paradise is one of few games I have platinum on psn

[simple cosmos]

i just cant stop

[cedar echo]

Unless you're an Ubërschall player

Then stay away

[bitter falcon]

I don’t know what that means

[cedar echo]

Someone who only uses Ubërschall and BRAGS abt using Ubërschall

[bitter falcon]

No idea what that even is

I’m probably not then

[cedar echo]

Gng are you even a Burnout fan

💔

[bitter falcon]

I am

[cedar echo]

Which one?

[bitter falcon]

Paradise

[cedar echo]

Okay you're lying

[cedar echo]

Okay hold

[bitter falcon]

I drive a mix of everything. Not the same car

[flat oxide]

Dream BBQ mentioned

[compact stump]

more kings in hand= more score

[cedar echo]

Me too, but I remember the cars

So

Memory issue? Idk

[stone swan]

assumin youre on a nan run, yes

[compact stump]

yes it is.

[stone swan]

hell yeah

just did mine the other day

you need a fourth copy joker asap

[compact stump]

yeahhh

I see now. Yea I don’t use that

[compact stump]

antimatter isnt showing

[cedar echo]

Alright thank goodness

What is your fav then? 👀

[unreal stag]

[bitter falcon]

I like the burnout cars most. Not so much the aggressive

[cedar echo]

I love the hawker mech

[grave gust]

Me when I lose a good run to the

[bitter falcon]

GT flame

[tribal knoll]

im ngl ive lost far more good runs and runs in general to not reading the blinds than to the plant

and by not reading the blinds i mean specifically the "dont repeat" and "only play 1 type" ones

[cedar echo]

Oh I love that car

It's durable too

[stone swan]

also whats that copy joker mod called

[flat oxide]

👁️👄

[bitter falcon]

It’s sad there’s no more in the series. No new games announced anyway. They fr remastered it and did nothing else

[tribal knoll]

those 2 are far more deadly than the plant is to me

[flat oxide]

I feel you

Sometimes I run into them and forgot it's them

So I end up losing

[tribal knoll]

me when i discard with a high card and i end up being forced to play high cards cause i didnt read

[flat oxide]

Me when I wanna get the DNA value against the Mouth but I forgot it's the Mouth and I'm fried

[stone swan]

your issue isnt gold vs steel its copies

[flat oxide]

You can go for it I'm sure

[stone swan]

i mean youll clear it either way

[compact stump]

im happy withe the naneinf wtv happens then idrc

[compact stump]

thx!

[stone swan]

you did sm better with econ than i did in mine lol

[compact stump]

rebate was the key

[compact stump]

2k in 2 antes lol

[stone swan]

tbf i didnt get overstock until late late

like it almost killed me

[compact stump]

yh i got lcky with that

i got overstock plus in ante 8 i think

[stone swan]

jelly

[stone swan]

took me til like 12 for overstock let alone plus

[compact stump]

uhhhm yeah i think im winning next hand.

[glacial fiber]

Not enough copy jokers I think

You need 4 to naneinf with burglar

[loud plover]

you can only naneinf on ante 26

4 copy jokers

48 steel in hand

[glacial fiber]

44

[stone swan]

you need like 55 to do it with only 3

[loud plover]

Wouldn’t you need extra hand size with that

Initial handsize

[stone swan]

yes, or cryptid

thats how the seeded Perko nan record was achieved

or former rather

[weak tangle]

does michael have to naturally die for cavendish or can it be madnessed

[stone swan]

naturally

[glacial fiber]

Naturally I’m pretty sure

[ocean yarrow]

Is there some of video/guide that shows me how to like naneinf or something

[glacial fiber]

Lowkey haven’t thought about that tho

[ocean yarrow]

Like especially to get good econ

[stone swan]

are we able yo post links here

im new

[glacial fiber]

Doc spectred has a naneinf video explaining that

[ocean yarrow]

okay thanks!

[stone swan]

check dm for the one i used

[glacial fiber]

Also just watching people get naneinf helps, I’ve watched like 3 roffle videos before I could get mine, and even then it took me 3 good tries

[stone swan]

Doc is better for learning tho, love roffle

what do yall consider the big achievements of the game? Obv C,C+,C++ but what else? My buddy and i were discussin the other day

[minor hound]

I've finally unlocked gold stake🫡

[hasty socket]

It's a new joker incoming for 1.1

[undone grove]

Ok

Grx

But What is your skill?

[glacial fiber]

Very natural

[hasty socket]

Played this game 2 months ago, 100 hours

I've got gold stake on 3 decks

still don't know how to get the 400$ joker though

[eager vessel]

finally got a new high score after forever.

[glacial fiber]

400$ joker?

What’s that

[hasty socket]

the one you unlock by having that much of money

[glacial fiber]

Ohh

[eager vessel]

simple. gold cards and a mime

[hasty socket]

Sattelite

[glacial fiber]

I understand you now

Golden ticket and sock and buskin is probably the easiest

It makes so much money

[glacial fiber]

Nicee

[hasty socket]

Dude you don't know how much I like this game lmao

[glad oriole]

chat does thunk referring to it as "nanner" rather than "banana" mean the banana will be good at naneinfing

[hasty socket]

I joined today btw

[glacial fiber]

I feel you on that, I have 250 hours in the game, and I started playing maybe 2 months ago

[hasty socket]

I like the references, localthunk even referenced the cards we use in Italy

[ocean yarrow]

What channel is that

[glacial fiber]

In this channel

[unreal stag]

I got Yorick, Canio, Triboulet and Perkeo in one run
