Can we rebrand irrational numbers to "emotional numbers"?

irrational numbers are just integers that go through their teenage emo phase and then become rational as they reach their mid 20s

heres how i visualize all the different types of numbers:
natural/whole numbers: group of toddlers somewhere in elementary school or kindergarten
integers: children that just started middle school
irrationals: teenagers going through a dark emo phase in high school
rationals: 20-30 year old workforce working blue collar jobs
imaginaries: middle aged, going through midlife crises but still doing stuff
complex: old and retired, not doing much but still helping support the other numbers

does this make sense to anyone but me

Golden ticket

Any attempts to make money

It's good for high card or pairs but for anything else on a stake that's not white stake, which is always beatable anyway or you're on a challenge. It can be difficult

Obviously every boss blind is situational

The club isn't going to matter if you have no clubs in your deck, but it's a disaster if you have all clubs in your deck

Baron ends up being not very good for goldstake

it's a statistical nightmare for an aj hand

what if they changed serpent so that you always drew one fewer card than you played/ discarded

Then highscores are infinitely harder

#

I think the serpent is balanced as it is

I think it's pretty underpowered as a boss blind

but having easy bosses is okay

white zodiac

yeah it's usually a non threat

but that's within the current meta standards

No I think it does what a boss blind should do, provides a challenge based on the build you may or may not have.

# pale wolf it affects like a quarter of a certain type of build

You play a boss blind that debuffs a suit that you don't have at all in your deck or just don't rely on at all, then it's the easiest boss blind in the world. But if you have all of that suit then it is a nightmare, the boss blinds are situational and will always provide a challenge to certain builds or makes all builds less effective so gotta hope that you're strong enough

i picked up seance exactly one time on gold stake (for the sticker) and

  • i got it to proc a decent number of times and even played a straight flush to beat the final boss
  • i was only able to do this because i also had hallucination and was in a really safe spot w/r/t scoring
  • it gave me absolute garbage

Honestly hot take but I don’t really understand the showman hate, I can slightly get why it’s hated but not really. Usually losing a joker slot for utility that can be sold at anytime isn’t really an issue no?

# west copper How so?

blocking consumable cards so they cant appear in shop/packs is a big part of optimization

glass creek
#

For little to no gain usually

pale wolf
#

and showman disables that

left vigil
#

If you're actively digging to get a copy of one joker, while not blocking anything is an ineffiecient way of trying to win a run

pale wolf
#

showman would be viable if it only affected jokers

left vigil
#

And losing out on 1 joker slot

pale wolf
#

like a different version of invis

heady narwhal
#

showman copies aren't even good copies though

I think showman fits better as a voucher and not a joker ngl

It doesn’t help you that much if you don’t already have a good joker

# heady narwhal ui nightmare

Nah I think it's a good idea. Being able to sell a voucher for half the price, you're getting the value you need that voucher off of and being able to sell it afterwards to reverse the effect but with the downside of it being able to pop up again

Endless gives replayability to balatro, a goal for when you complete the game. This is a you problem, endless is one of the main reasons why balatro has KEPT mainstream appeal. Because people like seeing number go up

I'm not annoyed that you're doing it, I'm annoyed that you feel the need to comment on a part of a game that people enjoy just because you personally don't like it. Even if LocalThunk doesn't like it, he (I assume) agrees that it has its benefits and that's why he's kept it

pale wolf
barren wigeon
#

you dont have to play endless

#

and complaining about the balatro "meta" is stupid when its a single player game

pale wolf
#

I know I don't have to play endless, but also its existence means that discussion of its meta leaks into what I consider good conversations

#

The game would have been better off if endless mode was just the most popular mod for balatro

tranquil cargo

ngl, I see ccg discussions often have the same problem

I don't value balatro getting more sales or being ultra relevant in the public eye, I value game discussion

A lot of conversations wouldn't be had if Balatro wasn't as popular as it is now

left vigil
#

But that's a very simple minded speculation into what you think a game should be

#

If you're making a game, you want it to sell

and the game probably wouldn't be as polished as it is currently without the mass popularity of it

what joker do i switch out?

burnt topaz

Alright every joker I use must contain red in the card art wins

# left vigil That's your opinion

it's objectively less variety than the base game, and while that's not an objective measure of how entertaining something is, it's a metric of some sort

ok

heady narwhal
# left vigil That's your opinion

i think there are some aspects of the game design that make it so that there's objectively less variance

for instance: endless mode isn't designed, it's an emergent consequence of ante 8 design

I've just now noticed

#

Perhaps the score requirement should scale slower only for the endless blinds and leave the first 8 untouched? That might allow a larger variety of avenues to go down and give it more of that "endless" feel

which doesn't save me but its a nice thing to have

left vigil
# pale wolf I mean that's fair enough, I used to do the same

I'm not saying that you don't have good arguments man, I don't like the conversations of people assuming jokers are objectively good because of a big number on white stake in endless. But, endless is an inheritantly good thing for the game even without highscore runs, and because of the mainstream appeal that endless brings to balatro, more players are coming in (whether endless nancies or not) and giving LocalThunk the attention he deserves on his wellbuilt game

barren wigeon
#

i just have to keep buffing flush house and hope

pale wolf
#

yea idk what I would've thought of endless had it been tamer scaling

barren wigeon
#

ok i made 2 million

#

I still could have a problem with the plant though

buoyant ridge

yesss it did wow, and now cryptid on stone card ?

left vigil

#

yea it would be the same situation but with absurdly longer runs

left vigil
#

Yes

#

I think it's perfect the way it is

pale wolf

i still would be fine with the endless mode button not existing tbh

cloud sinew

i dont think its perfect but i wouldnt want it to be changed

I do like the way the extreme scaling of endless blinds necessitates a strategy change. The pivot from flat and xMult to exponential retriggers is interesting to me

you have to deal with how that affects joker stickers, and also locking content behind a specific mode/deck/achievement state... etc isnt a good idea imo

# pale wolf is it not

😭 please just answer the question. its not a gotcha, im not implying that it ISNT faster im just asking for evidence for your claim

barren wigeon
#

if you beat ante 8, you already have a great deck

#

meaning you dont gotta do all the nerd shit

ante 1-8 id consider more timespending than ante 8-16

u can just get baron mime

it is gold stake though

baron mime is hard on gold stake but not impossible

pale wolf
#

its not trivial to just "get" to ante 16 every time

cloud sinew
#

true... thats another thing

#

C++ meta would be just doing crimson bean and getting like 50 negatives

#

then going to a24 or a32

yea idk i hate endless again

#

remove it

Runner is actually a good joker

eternal anchor

endless does end. If not by a specific build, it ends with the ante 39 required scoring

barren wigeon
#

not naneinf

pale wolf
#

so naneinf is smaller than nan right

#

😎

barren wigeon
#

sure

eternal anchor
#

rephrased

tranquil cargo
#

nan isn't bigger than naneinf, nor is it smaller or equal

white zodiac
#

it's within the formula spectrum

barren wigeon
#

Nan isnt a number so you cannot compare to nan

pale wolf
#

it's an imaginary number

barren wigeon
#

naneinf is literally nothing with infinite zeroes

pale wolf
#

so its 0

barren wigeon
#

zero isnt nothing

pale wolf
#

i can score 0 easy enough

barren wigeon
#

you arent young sheldon

buoyant ridge
#

what am i doing wrong ? i could find any mult X jokers and my run died because chips arent sufficient

barren wigeon
tranquil cargo
#

you score ∞, the game converts it into scientific notation which is floor(log(∞)) characteristic (this is ∞) and ∞/exp(floor(log(∞))) mantissa (this is nan)

#

however, multiplying nan * exp(∞) doesn't retrieve back the same ∞ it started with, it gives nan

Challenge: Can only USE jokers with red in their card art.
Ruling: If I use judgement and get a joker without red, do I have to restart or do I just have to instantly sell it?

and what counts as red

What defines as red by normal human eyes, and a single pixel counts.

if you look at it and think red it's red

but yea if i was doing a color joker challenge it would have to be the majority of the card/joker figure

What would y'all think about a joker that retriggers the discards effects? As in, you get 2 tarots for 1 purple seal and double the chips for castle, double the money from mail in rebate or even get X2 each time with yorick? Wouldnt that would be cool?
