[forest wagon]

well then the chance is 0 since bloodstone doesnt hit any specific cards 😉

[hasty socket]

andd

let's say what's the chance of all 500 of them hitting a card

[sharp cliff]

when poker meets solitaire

least accurate description of balatro

[forest wagon]

pretty small

[hasty socket]

When poker meets roguelike

[sharp cliff]

mod mail!?!?

wake up babe new balatro discord channel

no because the whole point of idol is for heavy deckfixing

if your deck is 1 card idol is good to ankh

idol already with a base deck is bad

so ankhing idol with base deck would still be bad

if that is the question

it functions similar to baron imo

[rare yew]

What how it’s more accurate than roguelike deckbuilder

It’s kinda like solitaire poker

[sharp cliff]

i mean

you play it by yourself

[rare yew]

That’s a solitaire

[sharp cliff]

yeah but

it's still not poker

well

[rare yew]

Lmao

[sharp cliff]

poker meets solitaire ❌
solitaire poker ✅

[jovial timber]

Sup

[sharp cliff]

it's a me, solitaire

[icy veldt]

ohhhh is it solitaire because of solitude

[strong prairie]

are those supposed to be public? 🤔

[dense plover]

I doubt it

Well, one of the mods opened a ticket there, so they may be aware? Idk

[gilded pelican]

nice mod mail you got there

[vast raft]

What if
Redprint

It's like blueprint

But red

[compact stump]

hello chat

[desert wadi]

Hello

The other day i actually got an obelisk run that won

[compact stump]

i have never used obelisk

Well i’ve used it but i haven’t build a run around it

it seems hard

too much for me

[desert wadi]

I probably would use it again cuz it feels odd to use

Wouldnt*

[compact stump]

odd?

[desert wadi]

Hes just todd to me

Just a glimpse into how odd i have become

[compact stump]

Fair

[desert wadi]

Ill stick to using lucky cat and green joker

My goats

[visual basin]

Mike, summon localthunk

[hasty socket]

Mike, the shop please

[sharp cliff]

[visual basin]

Mike, the blind please

[hasty socket]

Localthunk what do you think of the gba project of balatro

[desert wadi]

Creative freedom is so fire

Banger song

[visual basin]

fuck yeah

[hasty socket]

Mike, reroll the blind...

[visual basin]

Mike, discard these cards

[compact stump]

who’s mike.

[candid hornet]

Yo what's up?

I'm suspicious of something about my friends

I need outside help to identify my suspicions

I suspect that they are a gay couple and there is nothing wrong with it but I want to confirm my sospec

I suspect that they are a gay couple and there is nothing wrong with it but I want to confirm my suspicions

[vale token]

Whats up guys

[potent gull]

tf are we supposed to do

[grand sphinx]

you right, what are we supposed to do

[forest wagon]

ask them if they are gay

hope this helps 🥰

[grand sphinx]

regulus is right

just ask them

if they trust you they would answer you

[fresh shuttle]

yo guys do i make blueprint copy throwback or ancient joker? im playing a flush build

4x mult on throwback btw

[tawny pasture]

ancient

[compact stump]

4x on throwback is diabolical

[fresh shuttle]

yh i lowky died though

i just copied throwback i died at 6x ante 11 or sum

[compact stump]

Yeah skipping that many blinds isn’t very good for an AJ run

for any runs

[fresh shuttle]

atleast i won the stake ive been stuck on blue for a while

[pearl raft]

petah

da hourse is here

cya in an hour

ish

[soft kraken]

Petah why is the hourse here?

[warm harbor]

I wonder why there isn’t a +1 hand joker. Maybe just too generic, benefits every playstyle roughly the same amount?

[solemn elm]

also hands are incredibly powerful

[strong canyon]

just to be sure hack doesn't retrigger in hand abilities?

[compact stump]

no

same with sock and busking

[lusty rune]

Soque and bosquing

[lusty rune]

Are you playing the cards in hand?

[compact stump]

what.

[lusty rune]

Well, hack says it retriggers played cards
I was asking if the held in hand cards were played

[strong canyon]

that's what I'm saying. no they weren't played and I was 99.9% sure it didn't work like that but wanted to check

[uncut relic]

The best card in the game is mad joker

[torn jasper]

it's trading card

[velvet void]

yo

question

how do i install mods on pc

[forest wagon]

ho to the #⚙・modding-general

[pliant sedge]

@simple ore how did YOU become a joker?

[simple ore]

I've been before you look

lol†

[pliant sedge]

yeah ik

I'm curious :P

were you just super present in the server lol

[simple ore]

pillar of the community I guess

[pliant sedge]

radical

[simple ore]

I think I said the n word /s

[pliant sedge]

huh

[simple ore]

what actually happened was that someone had a slur in their name and I pinged mods with their @ and got insta banned by trigger happy

and then when I came back I was blue

[pliant sedge]

ToT

They gave you a mercy blue

[compact stump]

chat is very blue

[wicked sleet]

Your profile picture looks very solid.

[compact stump]

Yours makes my metal gear very…. solid.

[pliant sedge]

you mean ur snake

[compact stump]

Same thing.

[compact oracle]

does enyone have mods here

[compact stump]

yes

[light beacon]

hi what is the best way to win a run without playing a flush

i'm addicted to flush builds...

[halcyon wolf]

you uhh

you gotta

try playing straights

[halcyon wolf]

same

[light beacon]

yeah that's what i was thinking, but all my straight runs fizzled out quick

[halcyon wolf]

pairs

[tardy fox]

hey andy give me a game with extra style
extra style
and hold the difficulty
hold the difficulty?
and hold the good music
hold the music?? Hey jimmy, give me a yoshi game
a yoshi game..............?

[pliant sedge]

hold the good music???

[sharp cliff]

did thunk ban saying "I' 'Love'** ** 'Tv"

[compact stump]

yes.

no more Xmult for that joker in that one mod

[magic swan]

my joker D:

[long atlas]

l LOVE TV!

no but seriously why is it banned were people spamming it or something

[candid hornet]

I'm back

Although I did not resolve my suspicions that they were a couple, I have no doubts, and if I did not know them and I see them, they would look like a gay couple.

What do you say? I should continue investigating or I should leave them alone

Say what you think and I'll take it into account

[tame fractal]

[turbid flower]

Mango

[weak finch]

how do u guys multiply other face cards

[turbid flower]

Smiley joker

[weak finch]

no i mean make more face cards

[compact stump]

strength, deaths standard packs

[turbid atlas]

Familiar spectral card
death
strength on tens
DNA
Standard packs
Cryptid card

[scenic cliff]

Pareidolia...

[steel fiber]

for strength, you specifically use strength on 10s, turning them into jacks

[primal wraith]

Can someone tell me what to do in this situation because I'm so freaking lost bro. I should have freaking won this
It's freaking stupid

I had an all face deck
One card gave me a multiplier for each joker and I had Max 15
One gave me 30 chips for every face card
I was easily making 14,000 a round bro

What was I doing wrong?😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😡😡😡😡

[tropic herald]

send a image

[primal wraith]

I can't in the server

Furthermore, I'm working so the game I was playing where that happened
Which happened at my break?
Is gone

It was on my phone?

[tropic herald]

did you have internet?

[primal wraith]

I was at anti 7 too🥲

Yes

Why you ask

What the frick was that

🤣

[tropic herald]

some times, balatro dont save progres with no internet

[tropic herald]

i was trying to upload a imgae xd

[primal wraith]

DANG IT
I wish I would have knew that
Rip bozo for me I guess

[tropic herald]

but it doesnt make sense, you have internet

maybe your phone is old or not working right

[primal wraith]

Huh?

My phone is working fine

NNL4MT3H

That was the seed

[tropic herald]

[tropic herald]

[primal wraith]

Yes, that's the one I got

[tropic herald]

[primal wraith]

Don't try to go for full House
He won't get any Earth cards

[tropic herald]

IM DOING FULL HOUSE HAHHAHA

trust me

im gonna win

[primal wraith]

I got to anti-7 but you won't win that way unless you go a different route than I did
Because I went for the face card route which did me pretty good

But I suck balls at the game

🥲

[tropic herald]

what

im doing straight then

[primal wraith]

Sorry I edited that. That was really bad out of context 😅

I should have thought about that before I wrote it

[primal wraith]

Go for all the face joker cards you can. Those are going to be op

[tropic herald]

ok

[primal wraith]

The face joker cards kept appearing over and over again. It was kind of wild

[tropic herald]

pareidolia?

[primal wraith]

What?

[tropic herald]

the poker joker

this joker

[primal wraith]

I don't remember what that one does

[flint copper]

Makes all cards faces

[tropic herald]

consirdate

[flint copper]

[primal wraith]

That one wasn't in the seed

[tropic herald]

[primal wraith]

I don't think I want that missed it but I don't think I would have missed it

[flint copper]

considered?

[tropic herald]

[flint copper]

[tropic herald]

[primal wraith]

Hahahahah

I guess I'm not the only bad one in this server

Lol

[tropic herald]

the jokers were not very good

[silver yacht]

keep balatring

balatring never stops

[primal wraith]

What I did is I had a banana joker with the 1 in 15 chance to get deleted
The one that gives me 30 chips per face card
One card that let me have plus two multiplier per joker

And one that gave me a multiplier for
every face card

There was another face card as well. I think that came later. That helped

But it got me to anti 7

[tropic herald]

umm i think you are confusing the habilities of jokers

but sure whatever they are prety much the same hability as the original

[obtuse snow]

The balala files

[hushed wolf]

Do we approve of baron first shop

And then using hex on it

[signal stratus]

Thinking of a legendary joker that gains xmult when spectral cards are used

But can't think of any historical court jesters that would be good for that

[signal stratus]

Or for every spectral card used this run

Like fortune teller

[faint kindle]

hi folks, which channel can i go to for help?

in my best run ever but idk what to do..

[tawny pasture]

[cerulean lotus]

Sho

[faint kindle]

sent in game discussion, apparently I messed up by not picking up DNA so run is pretty close to dead unless I get some pretty good luck lol

[alpine vault]

Any reason why the Game Pass version of the game doesn't allow changing resolutions?

[cerulean lotus]

I don't think the steam version does either.

[alpine vault]

So it's a modded thing? That kinda sucks

[visual basin]

you take a cat and take another cat and rub their backs and they get fat it's called Mewgenics

[prime nova]

I was kinda intrigued about the change that TCG mod made to Photograph:

u should prob ask in the multiplayer server

Balatro Multiplayer when?

[stray vault]

Already exists

[wanton sentinel]

Online Multiplayer?

has localthunk thought of making exponent jokers?

[tawdry glen]

BA

[long atlas]

he says never, same with xchips

[stray vault]

Exponent jokers are basically on card scoring xmult jokers

[abstract furnace]

nooo we cant send pics here anymore

[long atlas]

[hasty socket]

never, and that's good because yk... that would be broken

its not really about the score its about whats the best hardware youve seen a person play it with

[compact stump]

“elphant”

[brittle viper]

Random question: I've worked up a lot of progress on my Android mobile version of the game, and it seems like I can't continue my progress on the Steam version. That true?

Firgured, thanks for confirming 👍

[crimson moat]

Kinda sad that there is so few support for high score runs except baron and mime. Today i had run of my life with full deck of red seal polychrome glass kings with 5 retriggers and 4 x2 mult jokers and only reached e61 😭

[deft path]

i had only aces

i had starfruit like 100 negative blueprints some boredoms some nostalgic invis jokers and like 5 oil lamps

i ended it bc it was too laggy

they typed what the message shows, it wasn't actually censored/redacted.

it isn't a thing yet

[thin glen]

huh

[sacred wyvern]

anyone here good at math/creative enough?

[strong canyon]

What is the easiest deck to get the shattered achievement?

[hasty socket]

That challenge maybe if it counts

Or else I don't think there's one in particular

[strong canyon]

I've found the challenge to not get me achievements. Was thinking either magic or abandoned.

[stray vault]

What do you nêd

[hasty socket]

maybe abandoned you can have the cards more frequently

[sacred wyvern]

im thinking of doing my IB math IA on balatro and needed some ideas

idk what to investigate

[stray vault]

Statistics

Balatro is all about statistics

[sacred wyvern]

can u expand what specifically i can look at

[outer basalt]

Finally hit my first naneinf and it was unseeded

[sacred wyvern]

fire

[outer basalt]

Had 180 steel red seal kings

[stray vault]

Imagine playing an idol, whats the odds of you hitting idol in an ante, how many identical cards you need in your deck so Idol consistently hits it per an ante

By consistently i mean by a fraction

Like above 70% or 80%

[sacred wyvern]

what does idol do again?

[stray vault]

Kinda like that

[still bison]

I was gotten with the same bit and decided that others must suffer as I did

[stray vault]

Gives x2 if playing the card it is asking for

[solemn elm]

cards with [suit] and [rank] give 2x when scored, card changes every round (picks from deck)

[sacred wyvern]

oh so i can look at the probability of getting that specific suit and rank compared to the playing deck as well?

[stray vault]

Kinda like that

Its just my recommendation

[sacred wyvern]

i see and it also depends on the number of that specific suit right?

[stray vault]

Someone might have better idea

[stray vault]

Yeah

[sacred wyvern]

thanks

[solemn elm]

the number of cards of that specific suit and rank / the total number of cards in deck that aren't stone (stone cards aren't valid targets)

[stray vault]

Cuz a deck with 10Ks have higher chance of idol hitting Ks than deck with only 4 Ks

You can do a bunch of math with this

[sacred wyvern]

i see

[solemn elm]

this is also true for castle and rebate, but ancient doesn't care about what's in your deck

[stray vault]

Kinda fun

[solemn elm]

also Idol, Rebate, Castle and To Do List can repeat, while Ancient cannot

[sacred wyvern]

yeah this is why i decided to pick balatro

going with poker is the boring option

[stray vault]

In math term, idol is independent condition

Ancient has condition

Conditional probability

[sacred wyvern]

hmm this might get too complicated though

[stray vault]

Idol math is actually simple

[sacred wyvern]

theres a lot of conditions that increase/decrease idol chance no?

[stray vault]

Nah it only depends on how many cards of the same suit there are in the deck

[sacred wyvern]

not same rank?

it doesnt add to the chance?

[stray vault]

Same rank also

[sacred wyvern]

i can set either as a control variable tho right?

[stray vault]

Idol proc only on that card with specific suit and rank

[stray vault]

Wdym by control variable

[sacred wyvern]

like

set either the same suit or same rank as constant

or i js keep adding for example a 2 of spades into the deck

[stray vault]

Imagine you have on 1 king of heart in your 52 card deck, odds of idol hitting it is 1/52

Now if you have 3 king of heart in your deck

Odds will be 3/52

[sacred wyvern]

oh i see what u mean

isnt that js gonna be a linear relationship

i havent done probabilities yet

so idrk

[compact stump]

Is best if you don’t tbh 😭

[stray vault]

And if i were you, i would propose the problem as below: how many identical cards should be in the deck, so that the chance my idol hits it will be above certain percentage

Per ante

[compact stump]

If i was you i wouldn’t think about playing idol.

[stray vault]

What have you learned tho

[sacred wyvern]

this seems kinda simple no? because if its js 70% for example it would js be 52x0.7

[stray vault]

Yeah its simple

[sacred wyvern]

not much the semester js started but i can js learn it on my own time

[stray vault]

Not this tho

[sacred wyvern]

@stray vault can i not js do which 5 jokers together will achieve the highest score and the probability of getting those 5

[stray vault]

Its simple bit this is not the math

[stray vault]

You only want highest score?

[sacred wyvern]

i mean what else would i do?

[stray vault]

You need to add more constraints to the problem

[solemn elm]

thats not all that goes into high scores

poker hand, levels, enhancements, editions, observatory, etc

[sacred wyvern]

this is gonna be hell

[stray vault]

Add more constraints to it

Like

With specific level

Hand size

That number of joker

[sacred wyvern]

well yeah i was gonna js keep those constant

oh i guess hand also matters

and the hand will affect the chips

[stray vault]

My friend actually had to do similar things to you

[sacred wyvern]

like 3 of a kind vs pair

[stray vault]

Pick something and wrote math about it

[sacred wyvern]

joker

[solemn elm]

Ive worked out the odds of getting stickers accounting for mutual exclusivity (can only be perishable or eternal) and accounting for jokers which are immune to eternal or perishable

[stray vault]

He chose uma musume

🙂

[solemn elm]

but this seems too open ended

[stray vault]

Within 5 jokers, 8 hand size, i guess the only solution is triboulet

Tribo and a bunch or retrig

Its my anecdote tho

Not correct math

You should try doing the math

[sacred wyvern]

i cant do that

the idea

theres too many things

the jokers all have such diff conditions

[stray vault]

Thats why you need to add more constraints

Like

If you have big hand size

[sacred wyvern]

that i cant keep things like hand size or whatever constant

[stray vault]

Baron wins

But on smaller hand sizes, idol/triboulet

[stray vault]

Its the problem you propose, u can put any constraints you want

[sacred wyvern]

also jokers like 3 of a kind or double pair will score more or less chips than other jokers

[solemn elm]

i mean

[stray vault]

[sacred wyvern]

maybe face card jokers only so chips are always the same

right

or am i tweaking

[prisma idol]

EGG 🗣️

[stray vault]

Nah the problem is more definitive than you think

If you just want the highest score

Given some constraints

[wintry halo]

my guess is 3/4 for any sticker to appear

[sacred wyvern]

like 5 jokers only, 5 cards, 0 discards etc?

i cant really think of many

[stray vault]

Yeah

If you find the problem being too open ended, narrow the scope

Until you can solve it easily

Then expand the scope again

Thats my advice

[solemn elm]

do you mean like

for at least one sticker to be on a joker

[wintry halo]

yeah

or probability of a clean joker vice versa

[sacred wyvern]

ok i think ill js do the idol one

[solemn elm]

you were close

67.95% for a joker to have at least one sticker

heres where i showed my math #🕹・game-discussion message

[wintry halo]

brain rot %

[sacred wyvern]

How many copies of a specific card must be included in a deck of fixed size so that the probability of drawing at least one copy in a random five-card sample exceeds 70%? ok this seems a little stronger but it loses the concept of jokers entirely

bc even mentioning idol or balatro seems irrelevant because u can test this with normal cards can u not

[solemn elm]

that's a fairly simple problem to solve

[sacred wyvern]

yeah

how about How does increasing the number of identical copies of Idol’s target card in a Balatro deck affect the probability that the Idol Joker activates at least once during a round?

its the same thing

actually

[solemn elm]

i know the answer as ive done it before, but it would be an interesting experiment for you to figure out "at what point is it better to use a hanged man to remove 2 cards rather than using death to turn one card into a desired card, where your goal is the highest % improvement to draw that card"

[sacred wyvern]

will it not always be better to use hanged man until u only have 1 undesired card left

nvm

i asked chat gpt and it glazing this idea like crazy

[solemn elm]

if you look at a base deck of cards, say my desired card is a king of spades, using death changes the proportion from 1/52 to 2/52, hanged man changes it from 1/52 to 1/50, so death is better at first

[solemn elm]

don't use generative ai dawg

im right here

[sacred wyvern]

ok mb big cheese

[sacred wyvern]

i js wanted to see the equation that determines this

[stray vault]

Lilo's problem pretty much translates into, you have x number of cards, you have two choices: either removing two cards or turning a card into another card. At a certain x, which method increases chance of drawing the card u want

[sacred wyvern]

yep

but i need a personal connection

so translating this into balatro will be good

[stray vault]

If i were you, i would do how much on average i would spend on gachas to get the character I want

🤓

[sacred wyvern]

inf because the game hates US

WE are never going to get the desired outcome

[stray vault]

Is IB like for high schoolers in the US

?

University subjects but easier for high schoolers?

Im not familiar with the US's system

So I may at some point oversimplify what u need to do

[stray vault]

That math seems correct

[solemn elm]

ty

[stray vault]

Didnt know odds of getting sticker on joker is 0.3 tho

Til

[coral zodiac]

yall i literally found out that scam thing is in my old server too ☠️

[sacred wyvern]

its european

[coral zodiac]

those 4 images

[solemn elm]

yeah each sticker has a 30% appearance rate, not accounting for anything else.

[sacred wyvern]

yea basically

• we have IAs and EE

to top it all off

we have to take french

for all 4 years

in canada

if ur doing ib

[stray vault]

Didnt u say u were European

Why canada here

[sacred wyvern]

its based in europe

but its in canada

[boreal heath]

turtle bean haha

[solemn elm]

of course it was

worst joker to sticker lmao

perishable doesnt help you, uncommon, only lasts 5 rounds.

[boreal heath]

would be easier if it debuffed before it got eaten

i just farmed money off gold cards with mine and blueprint till it showed up ante 6 and skipped till the boss blind

had my heart racing a bit hoping crimson heart didn’t debuff my score jokers lol

[honest canopy]

Stone Joker was my last because he always refused to show up. We have a rocky relationship I guess

[olive smelt]

can someone check #🃏・off-topic rq

[long atlas]

hi guys can someone explain why i’m still sick and after playing for almost 3 days straight i have not beaten gold stake 😞

[stray vault]

Take a break from the game

[long atlas]

i got nothing else to do i’m sick

i had a crazy ass wee build where he was at like 1700 and i had no retrigger jokers

i need a banana can someone get me a banana

thank you goobertron

and cleb

who else would like to donate to the banana foundation

oh yeah localthunk too i guess

i heard he likes bananas too

eldiablo thank you

alright guys i don’t wanna clutter only you four get thank yous

let’s start a conversation though

how was everyone’s day!

[autumn shell]

My day just started

[hot vortex]

Pretty good actually

[long atlas]

glad to hear

[stray vault]

I dont even have a life

[honest canopy]

I dunno what the joker role means but the colour choice is amazing

[autumn shell]

Frrrr

Looks so nice

[forest wagon]

I assume its whoever makes laugh

[hot vortex]

true

[hot vortex]

you must do something cool or helpful

[hasty mauve]

If one were to start from a brand new savefile and tried to get every single steam achievement as fast as possible, how long would that take RTA

Like obviously you can't know cause it's random and shit

But like a very rough estimate

[remote kraken]

whats the average steam level of the balatro player

[digital lagoon]

What’s y’all’s fav joker combos

[hasty mauve]

Probably able to win a run every like 3-4 attempts surely

[remote kraken]

unrelated

[hasty mauve]

Oh

[remote kraken]

talking about the steam acc level

[small hamlet]

Splash and any +mult on cards scored joker (even steven, smiley face, ...)

Always a fun time

[coral zodiac]

i got jimbo tag now lol

[forest wagon]

I would guess like 40-50 hours

of playing

[solemn elm]

uhhh

you could reasonably get it down to like 30 hours

C++ has been done in 12 hours

[strong prairie]

Or get kicked by one of the mods on accident. I've heard that seems to work too

[clear tulip]

I've been on my C++ Journey for... 18 months!

[honest canopy]

I got no hope

[honest canopy]

Wait maybe I can pull this off

[hot vortex]

Ill be honest i didn't even know joker role existed before i got it

[solemn elm]

god

i was using immolate (seed searcher), but went down a rabbit hole for this bugged seed searcher that someone made

but it runs on the CPU when it would be quite easy to parallelise for GPUs

and now im writing an OpenCL version...

[hasty mauve]

hello??? 😭😭 is there a vid?

and was it just c++ or was it like

everything

c, c+ and c++

[solemn elm]

just C++, so just all gold stickers from an unlocked profile

if u really feel that way you should try new things even if u don’t feel like it, go for walks, do productive things, talk to people, but im no therapist i cant rly help you tbh

But I don't know of other servers where there are serious people

[ionic hinge]

Running away or ignoring your problems will not solve anything. It's true it's the easy way out but you have to face what you fear if you can. There is always a way to solve your problem even Balatro teaches you that.

[candid hornet]

This has nothing to do with balatro well maybe a little bit and that is that I am building a machine to bet on minecraft bedrock

Let's go gambling

[snow fog]

I have about 100 hours on this game I was wondering if anyone really does any 3OAK,4OAK, Full House, Straight, or Straight flush builds. I have never seen any reason to do 3 or 4 OAK because if my deck is already built for that I dig for 5OAK or FF. Same idea with full house and I don’t see the point of building for straights since they are so unpredictable wondering if anyone has had a different experience with these hands.

[timid cedar]

3oak is generally used as a building block for a 4oak build, and typically 5oak is not worth going for due to the inconsistencies with drawing it

[fluid mango]

What would y'all add to black deck?

[timid cedar]

full house is generally just worse than other hands due to scoring only a small amount more than 3oak but also being decently harder to draw

straight flushes aren't really worth building around due to sheer difficulty. Forcing 1 or 2 straight flushes is easy, but without shortcut it's not really worth the effort when straights would do the job just fine

[timid cedar]

starting with 1 extra dollar could mitigate a decent chunk of the econ issues without taking away too much of the intentionally difficult challenge

[snow fog]

Yeah I guess I overlooked 4OAK did not realized it scaled similarly to 5OAK. Was watching spectreds video about 5 card hands being underpowered and was really thinking about how some hands just never get built around

Hoping the new update, whenever it comes out addresses these balance issues.

[timid cedar]

yeah, looking at it mainly from a gold stake perspective, straight flush and the secret hands are generally not worthwhile. This isn't to say never use them, there are absolutely valid scenarios where they help out, and even just playing one can keep you alive longer

the smaller hands are always going to be more consistent due to working with so many more jokers and not being reliant on good draws

[snow fog]

Is FF bad I really like how fast it scales and if I can start it early I can really push through lower antes

Although gold stake is easier with pair spamming

[timid cedar]

the scaling of FF isn't the issue, it's how much you need to fix your deck to guarantee you draw it every single round

[solemn elm]

5 matching suit and ranked cards is very hard to consistently play, and it's only +20 chips faster than 4oak but is way less consistent

[snow fog]

I thought it also had an extra mult

I guess I am wrong

[timid cedar]

with smaller hands, most of your scoring comes from jokers or planets, but with larger hands, you lean into enhancements and editions much more, with planets for them being much harder to come by

[solemn elm]

+3 +50 for flush five, flush house is +4 +40 same as neptune

[timid cedar]

this makes it so you can't really play other hands to get out of a pinch as easily

[snow fog]

I see. I didn’t really think about this I spend a lot of my time BSing around on white stake which is probably why

[timid cedar]

that's fair, on white stake you can do just about anything

[solemn elm]

1/4 scoring, no stickers to worry about, 1 extra discard, better econ from no red or gold stake

[snow fog]

Yeah white stake has gotten to a point where any build can win it

[gloomy helm]

hi i’m trying to log in to my account. i lost the mobile authenticator so how am i supposed to access to my account without the mobile authenticator??

[gloomy helm]

i have email, password, number and recovery code

[snow fog]

The thing about gold stake is I feel like I get locked into a bad build early

Either a rental kills my Econ

Or my best option is an eternal

[timid cedar]

then take the eternal

[solemn elm]

winning is better than dying

[snow fog]

True

[timid cedar]

taking an eternal that does nothing for ante 8 is better than never getting to ante 8

[snow fog]

I never do that I will do more of it

Is there any way to join the beta of the next update or is that not a thing

[snow fog]

Start at ante 0 more time to scale? Not sure how balanced this is

[timid cedar]

that negates almost all the challenge

lets you win the first 3 rounds easily, allowing you to fix your econ immediately

[solemn elm]

it definitely doesnt

i played with black deck starting at ante 0 for a while and it was still challenging, it just wasnt as miserable

[snow fog]

Maybe -1 hand -1 discard start at ante 0 6 joker slots

Although blue stake+ would be really hard
