but i literally just done the ROI achievement on a challenge run
why that hollow knight fan has a kink for hourses
silk song spoilers
killing you
ooh now what?
Buy saturn go next
did someone say hollow knight
saturn
Maybe i should play silksong
when did that thing
but flush bebder
:)
2 months and still dont play it
drawing straights should be trivial with +1 hand size and +1 discard
silksong is ok first game better
besides you don't have anything that makes flushes worth playing yet
oh ok
It doesn't catch my attention
guess we going straight build then
Neither both ganes
guys
i find them boring
hollow knight is cool but i'll play silk song before making a judgement on it
silksong is good but for some reason they ruined the economy compared to the original game
yes
standard tag or top up tag?
neither
sigh im being ignored maybe im just a chud
silksong is nice, 2 hours into the game I can get a crest that changes the playstyle completely and devote myself to it
the things i hear are mixed so
@dire crater the cavalry is here
the whar
spent 4 months of my life playing hollow knight and nobody gaf
half way
fishy, this is balatro chat not hollow knight chat
do you guys reckon i can reach ante 39 with the same nanief run?
Yeah shut up with that trash game
add hollow knight channel when
-3^4(e2)/10 ragebait
Whats that
casually tho
idk im talking shit out a butt
Its worth
if the seed has perkeo or 2 useful natural negatives then yes
also colo 3 sucks
I hate Bloodstone
One of my favorite games
Who don't
People call ragebait any different opinion now
what now?
i haven't seen you say anything else in like a week
you need glasses grandpa
Horse of 1 single trick
i have glases
Ooooooh thats why the horses
and im 18
you need better glasses grandpa
which suit do you usually play when you flush ?
ok buy me some
spades or hearts depending on the build
if im doing an econ diamonds
yes i have perkeo, it's the same run i had yesterday, i got naneinf and i was wondering if i could conitnue with 0 plutos at ante 15
hearts so based
because of rough gem
Where should I put my blueprint?
@serene forge jesus
ecto for kitty 🗣️
should i spectral pack it up?
Copy cat or Photo
copycat, the vocaloid song made by the producer KIRA
But if I use it on chad I can trigger lucky
most fair cryptid run
when do you get perkeo
i'd put it on the dna when you use it then keep it where you got it but thats just me
If you re doing enough point you Can do that
only vocaloid i listen to is ado
lore accurate hanging chad
Its better for retriggering
1 in 9.5 chance to get negative mult
this is actually how i survived the plant with trib, blueprint, lucky cat, oops, sock and buskin
ado is not a vocaloid...
what if instead of 3 is said 6 hahahaha
i got early it in early game, i got naneinf with cryptic
oh ok sounds like it though
oh yea i forgot why i came here
Will is this mightnt be good
decided to buy luchador and the celestial pack
Ado is a real person
67 isn't funny unc, we on 61 now
OMG
no we're on 74
I LOVE 61 GUY
ante 15 sounds too late to build up plutos
seventy four
i was telling myself "i hope i get lucky cat soon" and after like 5 shops it finally happened
MMMMMMMUUUUSSSSSTTTTRRRRADDDDDDDD
oooo nice
sell bloodstone
hm, well it doesnt hurt to try either way XD
that lucky cat needs a good home
sign the adoption papers! 🙏
Where os The dice
I'm trying to get a flush five but I'm winning only with high cards before that lmao
four hundred and twenty million, six hundred and ninety thousand, six hundred and seventy one
maybe but if i get dice then 😵💫
there's a death in this shop but i feel like that's bad
Just use as many Luck cards you can
blub was bloodstoning without dice 😭
literally rerolling for it rn
don't play hope balatro
at least not with that amount of econ
should i do the arcana packs?
61
74
3
2
five
He Will die with 0 triggers
yes you areeeeee
thanks game
do u guys know ian from alvin and the chipmunks
LET'S GAMBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gay banana
the annoying dude ?
Am I cooked, chat?
eternal dna is truly the decision of all time
why does your gold stake run look like white stake one
Copy photograph and use a glass card
What do you mean?
what should i do lord?
and that very very easily beats vv here
what did you take that rental negative for lmfao
most significant plant
Cause I wanna get the gold seal
whats in ur fool
saturn
truee
straight build
Also like
Lucky cat + DNA + red seal lucky card?
this does pretty much the same thing as stm but i don't need to draw queens
seance is being so fun but lowk also useless lmao
maybe I part with ticket and hope for ecto lol
photochad ...
ehh nothing beats another saturn
fuck bro
unlucky run gotta hold r
Photochad work in every stake
bye photograph
yeah so does bootstrap, doesn't mean it's good
This should be enough, right?
How much x The cat is giving?
6.5
easily
Another Dumb Question (I promis I'll get a save state mod or something to check these things for myself): The Joker "Photograph", does that trigger for the first face card in each played hand or only for the first hand that round? (So could I play 4 different hands in the same round and it would trigger every time there was a face card in it, for at least the first face card?)
seance noooooo
All hands
I want to love u
Im not sure but i think copying Photo would give more mult
Except that photochad IS really useful
I hate Bootstraps
my photograph aversion could never
But with Seed Money
Fair
Photochad would be x2^4 = x16, while lucky cat would be x6.5^2 = x42.25
yea copying photo is like an X16
garbage
thats not how that works
they're like my sad lost puppies
2x^4 for each photo
copying photo would be an extra x8 wouldn't it
copying cat would give X6.5 extra, copying photo would be an X16 extra
No, it's only the first card, and I already took into account the hanging chad + red seal
Red seal
red seal
Also, blueprint
So it'd be more
One Photo is giving you 16x
why would you count the original lucky cat but not the original photograph
I did count the original photograph
you're not
How much The Photo with chat id giving to you
Just say that
Please
SEANCE IS THE LEBRON OF BALATRO
x2 x4 x8 x16 x32 x64 x128 x256
Okay, nevermind, it'd be 2^2^4, so 256 vs the lucky cat's 42
Photochad definitely beats it
the original photo is an X16, the original cat is an X6.5, a blueprint is either an extra copy of photograph or an extra copy of cat
X16 > X6.5, so photo is the copy
ticket iimmediately came back everything is so beautiful
Yeah, I beat it
when you think about blueprint copy, you just compare which one makes the bigger Xmult on its own
rare tags
Banger skips
this was from a modded joker by the way
most useful skip tag
67 jokers with gold sticker out of 150
all this modding and skip tags still arent fixed, wrap it up, no more modding allowed 
tbf, negative skip tags are pretty useful with the anaglyph deck
Negative skip tag typically lands on something that provides no usable benefit, or very little benefit
anaglyph skips are for econ
Orbital tags>
or orbitals maybe
I have no idea how I'm supposed to get all gold stickers without negatives in anaglyph
Cause if not, it's gonna be super tedious
being able to use it to sticker doesn't mean it's useful after that
ghost deck is more consistent for stickers overall
most of the time you either get the negative tag to early or don't get it at all
I love bloodstoen
average negative skip tag compilation
i didn't use anaglyph at all in my c++
it's a weak deck compared to blue/yellow/ghost
oh my goodness negative 8 ball
and negative tag stops being realistically useful for c++ after like 50 jokers
my goat
buenas noches photograph
infinite handsize manacle glitch REAL
who x reacted
Does arm upgrade hands if 2 chicot
not sure if i'd use photo without retriggers on straights
oh ok
This was the LUCKIEST end i have ever gotten in this game
For explanation:
I could NEVER beat vv here without glasses 10s
Last shop: 2 standard packs, +/- $60
I opened the 2 packs, and one of them had a glass 9 of spades
I rerolled the shop to grow my Jj and found a death and a strength card
Last hand i got my 2 10 of spades (one i got as lucky card in another standard), my 9 of spades and the glass one
And as yall can see, i almost lost
so blank and mega buffoon?
there are like 4 valid straights for that so
no reason to not take photo with 54 dollars and free joker slots
take the standard pack for a seal
or edition
oh ok
aswell
Playing Golden Needle. Should I drop anything for the poly spoker?
runner get
Loyalty card just popped
how are you proccing loyalty
Whats wrathful doing there
rare tag spotted
blank is like the most overrated thing ever
I'm playing spade flushes because I'm scared
i mean 1 extra joker slot tho
do people even rate blank highly
depends
the downside of blank is that you couldn't get grabber or overstock in its place
selling a grimbo for her
blank has no incompatibility at all
Clearance and liquidation are just better
might be my favorite joker in the mod
should i get the rare tag?
no temperance value
typecast challenge:
nah
ok
Hermit does temp job
it wouldn't have appeared anyway
hermit is max 20$
rare skips are too unreliable
challenges are not part of main game, more like side quests
The free blueprint that awaits you just around the corner :

ante 8 blank:
my goat
And 90% of the time youll not get more than that with temp if ur not playing endless
Hitting blueprint😔
Hitting obby
i wouldn't rely on a 1 in 20 chance
There’s kind of a lot of ways to get that tho no
space joker
I mean, I get egg and gift card pretty often
so I wouldn't say that
might have to kill photograph or golden
I hate Negative Tag
1 hermit vs 2 hermit
Hermit better most cases
I hate the mouth
Obviously
A few, but just weakens ur build
you need like, a lot of editioned jokers or get the egg or gift card
Temp better if you're as broke as vagabond
uncommon is like, on average 3 dollars
can someone explain please ?
temperance is it's own card
Temps better for shit like green deck and having vagabond or analglyph deck with a bunch of negatives
you play a single card on your first hand and you copy it
it's better if you already have a good enough card to copy
You play a single card and it copies it
so basically you play 1 card as the first hand and it adds a copy
Play only one card (must be the first hand)=copy of that card
the jump from a 1.1 big blind to 7.2 small blind killed me :(
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, thanks guys!
love heart flushes tho
too much blue
Heart flush has the worst jokers
green deck my behated
Why the fuck did your balatro have a flood
I love temp on black deck
I introduced some random person in TikTok to peak
is it usually not blue
The thing about green deck is there genuinely isn’t any positives or negatives abt the deck
It’s genuinely just a sidegrade then playing A NORMAL FUCKING DECK
it’s so boring
😭😭😭
trading card or dna for the strush build?
got almost murdered by the wheel
green deck and painted deck personally hates me, dw about it
good thing luchador was there
just get a bunch of red seal lucky aces , all 6's , lucky cat and ur good dawg
I hate it
trading
Counters pair lobotomy on higher stakes
Just jokerless left to go before I've finished all the challenges 😭
By letting you play other hands for once
You can do this on any suit
pokemon card
jokerless is easy, just get blue seals and play straights
does this make sense
I hate Rare Tag
yea but diamonds is ugly and clubs is deformed
you need 3 specific jokers, an enhancement and a seal for that while spades needs scaling mult, arrowhead and blackboard
And what if you don’t get blue seals or a high enough straight level early on? lol
Their jokers are better than bloodstone though
get telescope instead 
Yeah guys black deck gs is easy just get like bp and hologram and obelisk
Or some shit
❤️
yeah
yeah so basically a royal flush is a flush that has no cards lower than 10
LMAO
i'd rather have pretty cards than good playing cards
I have screenshots for a lot of things
that's how all my black deck run goes ngl
i mean on jokerless its kinda hard not to get a saturn on the shop because no joker exists
all my luck goes there
i don't think that's what the argument is about
basically the first hand you play, if it is a singular card, this joker will copy that card and then place it in your hand
thanks (:
killed my blue seal by accidente with grim
i got a litter now
no peasants allowed 😢
yeah that's basically how it works lol
why are you evil chatter ?
oh nvm it says civil
evil chatter: idol is fine
if theres civil theres evil too tho right ?
one of them is gay now
so proud of her 🩶
its an old tag from a bygone era (~5 months ago)
THIS IS HUGE
this is not r/balatro
those who nose
was it 5 months ago, i kinda forgor
i dont nose :(
man fuck chicot
luchador already has enough powercreep
gifs are banned ?
Wild yeule fan spotted. Absolute W
yeah
damn
5 months ago we were happy
I wasn't
the bait
gold stake run, ante 8, I find a soul card, its chicot, I lose cause literally any other leg would've gotten me there (I lost by 1k points)
he's trying his best
got a holo crazy
yeah cause there's no other explanation for this single scoring factor
even if i sold red card and the hearts tarot im one dollar short i think im gonna pass
nah i'm just coping
A HOLO HANGING CHAD AND A SUPERNOVA
clearly you need to sell brainstorm
holy shit
for some reason it's not saying so but i am listening to her rn
You have a setup that can easily clear ante 8 so yeah
new album is absolute fkn banger
I sold an uncommon joker for the chicot, had baseball card, was scoring well above needed to beat the final blind, figured I had room, I didn't
yummers
GUYS GUYS
so you threw a winning run
that's literally entirely on you
Any got a seed with marble joker and stone joker? The best i could done was this
yeah I know
the game doesn’t force you to pick the soul
Hello gang gang
hi kami
Sell everything for soul
thinking on selling red card but i mean its base chips and mult and i dont have the vhs/reroll voucher
Trib is top of s tier
I mean
Lucky cards give +20 mult
Probably because PlayStation is overwriting the Spotify activity
You lose anyway bc no glass so like why not
IM GETTING HOLOS OUT THE WAZOO
most of the lucky cards are face card atm
i met my PB now, any win is a new PB now
#🕹・game-discussion message
What are the hand levels looking like?
WHO ARE YOU
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU
GET OUT OF HERE
should i hit the poly tag
35 next 🔥 🔥
Evangelic Girl Is A Gun is indie pop perfection. I love softscars too
sold red card since i already got an impressive blue stake sticker with it
theres someone who got like ~100 here im not that good
I gotta ask
why checkered of all things
average checkered run
I haven’t played Balatro seriously since I got a 40 streak
because i like checkered
oh ok
Which was like early September
idk what I was expecting from that question
and honestly blue or yellow would be the correct deck to pick because its 100% one of the 2 best decks in the game, but checkered is close on that list
way better than ghost atleast
the top 5 decks are really close in power from my experience
got the order
Ghost is just fun haha
I2BKXGXF this seed is genuinly fucking insane
Black nebula green anaglyph and erratic
checkered is just plasma but you dont get X2 scaling
erratic and anaglyph isnt on that list
erratic is pretty good, makes 3oak almost every seed
just annoying to look at your deck every run
it's in the middle line
Seems fairly normal no?
I don't wanna check discarding probabilities every run for streaking
I had fun w it
Doesn't mean there's anything special about it
nah i was just offline lol i forgot all about it , didnt even count my streams today :(
erratic is decent but having a lot of 1 rank doesn't matter that much if you don't have anything to use these ranks with
That's sad
can someone explain it to me please (again) ?
this was so scuffed
barely scraped by with justice + death on a red seal card
any deck fixing is better than nothing for like oak scoring alternatives tbf
streaking erratic is also tedious, its more fun to do rotating and then get erratic to mix it up
first discard poker hand becomes a level for that poker hand
the first set of cards you discard upgrades a hand level correspanding to the type of hand selecting those cards would play
yeah I didn't bother too much with erratic
wdym it became a level ?
I think I did 5 and called it a day
ex. discard 5oD 5oC 6oD 7oC JoS -> upgrade pair
planet level
Why would U take an eternal pareidolia 😭😭
like as if u used mercury
sticker
i got it on ante 1 lol
greedy
Ah
free matador value 👅
i even had the plant come up lol
though for some reason my wild cards weren't debuffed
whuh
🔥
wtf you got the 2026 update early 

:exists
planet scaling: 
checkered deck is my fav deck so far , i just got it two days ago and im already on orange stake w it
usually i play a new deck before a new stake
it's pretty fun
first discard upgrades the poker hand similar to space joker which does a 1 in 4 chance of upgrading the played poker hand
hearts flush my beloved
my faves are yellow, abandoned, checkered, plasma and ghost
The humble baron build:
wait hold on i know why
Abandoned is great
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ty!
Stakes don’t affect the seeds right?
other than stickers, no
im playing a modded version that only has one mod in it that changes gameplay and it's my own one that tweaks a few things that i wanted to test
Right, thanks
It affects stickers otherwise no
meanwhile stm 
u better share the seed when ur done
i will 🙏
Wow, Jokerless was way easier than I expected
I lucked out with a red seal poly stone card
(specifically it a) makes wild cards resist debuff b) changes all of the "X joker type" tags to spawn corresponding joker packs instead)
Now it's Golden Needle time
u can just exit out and look at the save info
thats true
throw it back
Any advice for Golden Needle?
idk i havent finished all the challanges legitimately
my best guess is have a good econ and able to play a card without discarding so having a joker like green or supernova
🏓
big hands = good
jokers that scale based on hands played = bad
trueeeeeeeeeeee
although ideally you luck into like. stuntman or something where you can play small hands and it still works
bc discards are sorta costly
this can be huge should i take the gamble
the baba deck
helll yea
jim is you
this is such a fun seed
oh lawd
the idol 🔥
frrrr
madness black stake and above and non-perisable goes hard
I want that seed I wanna se my self lose first round
maybe this is first ever a8 run where idol is useful idk
ok
copy madness with brainstorm for a real Jimbocide
okay this seed is CRACKED
HJYPULJ3, skip for Arcana pack for perkeo
quick question, what are the weakest deck or build styles (like Rank specific builds, or Joker specific builds)
Yo ty
weakest deck = black (or plasma maybe on high stakes)
maybe i shouldve sold oops all sixes so i couldve kept sock and buskin
im not really sure what "build styles" means
the worst hand is full house though by like a pretty significant amt
crud, I meant like making a build surrounding a specific rank, hand type or jokers. Like making an Aces only build with the Scholar Joker
the bait is back
Black is worse than plasma, on plasma you have atleast a laughably easy start, but black just never gets better
most things like that aren't "builds" in the sense that a winning strategy can't just rely on powering up "joker that synergizes with a certain rank"
blue/purp seals are very strong most of the time
trance:
Deja Vu is Deja Vu
ankh occasionally just wins the game instantly
especially with eternal jokers
99% of spectral pack buyers give up before immolate trance
you're right there
aura at least does something
are Aces good to rely on in a build
i don't have to die to the plant 🗣️
i actually relied on aura holo cards in my last round actually lol
but like
that is not a common thing lol
should i take it
aces are one of the easiest numbers to focus around because grim exists
scholar and fibba
rerolls Plant into Flint/Wall
they have fibonacci synergy too which is one of the strongest on-play jokers
Yea
sell the oops?
I need a deck check to know
also they can turn into 2s easily which is awesome bc 2s have the most and best on play synergies out of any rank
My highly subjective deck nonranking:
Red: We Fixed Blue Stake!
Blue: Objectively strongest
Yellow: Objectively strongest if you lack discipline
Green: terrible, stinky
Black: let’s just not think about the runs that don’t make it to ante 3
Magic: perfect, no notes
Nebula: I would hate this deck 300x less if it prevented emperor and priestess from showing up in the shop
Ghost: Brainrot (non-derogatory)
Abandoned: gr8 str8 m8 I r8 8/8
checkered: i hate you, worst deck, would be S tier if diamonds instead of hearts
Zodiac: hell yes! fuck yes! overstock!!!
Painted: only cowards would pass the eternal troubadour on blue deck
Anaglyph: the card backs look nice 🙂
plasma: fuck the violet vessel all my homies hate the violet vessel
Erratic: I actually really like erratic
i shouldve found a spectral pack early but didnt
Clearly the retriggerable x mult is way better than some cats imo
the cats stay
What hand are you playing?
So the cats have to be there why?
Oh
also 31.8 xmult is good
Sell oops I guess
never sell your cat
i guess the thing is though, i'm not really sure what "rely on in a build" means
like if you have the trio: it doesn't really matter what rank you build around as long as you are actually building around something
the game told me that was a good idea rewarded with a poly wheel hit
Surely the tribs with extra triggers can give more score?
tbf as the game goes on both the dice and cats are pretty much equally irrelevant
this seed is crazy ‼️
But this individual wants cats
also I have the plant so I'm fucked LOL
chicot 🙏
🖕
TRUE THERE IS A CHANCE
the cats HAVE to stay
What legendary do you want to the point where u have to sacrifice a joker
chicot brother
Chiclet might be the play here
Is the gamble worth it do you think
guess I'll sell a brainstorm
ill go ahead and start make some glass cards long with the lucky cards
i mean yeah if u have no other choice u definitely do it
Unfortunately I think there is no other way
YORICK
(so actually 0%)
that was a good chance
FUCK
Yea luchador never shows up when you need to
the humble yorick:
Real 100% objective ante 8 deck tierlist
THIS IS HUGE
Mmmmm Ricky he's my favorite but I guess he doesn't really help in this context
Ggs
whats with the numbers
Thats spicy
not sure what this means
Numbers instead of letters So its objective
i assume it's not abt deck strength
where is jokerdisplay ???
since it makes no sense
only had king of hearts
The numbers are the value each deck has
Bruh that 10 dollar temperance value is so worth
LOL
Dream plasma build
What challenge is this
medusa
imo black deck should be +0
monolith has a negative one and an regular eternal obelisk
bc missing hand is sort of like the opposite of a voucher
man that got to one of my best runs
Rip
Why no balatro music
nirvana music
i love the music of balatro but sometimes i just want to listen to my tunes while balaling
only played pairs so far lol
You know how many vouchers you have to get to have +1 joker slot
gsb is probably mroe difficult than any of the challenges imo lol
As i said this is objective
i mean
blank doesn't actually do anything
just beat gold stake Plasma with no mult! Wee and Bull were both @ about 400 chips
antimatter gives you +1 slot
Idk man minus one hand is a lot
You still need it
if you got antimatter by itself you'd still get +1 slot
at least it's better than plasma
i mean
maybe?
Why is it objective
im not sure which one is harder
plasma by a lot imo
Its According to the game itself
I think black deck is harder
still a lot of decks to go before i reach it though
What do the numbers mean
The values the decks give
Bro has never heard of marginal utility smh
grimbuhh 
Why does erratic deck have more number
i understand the gold stake pair hype now
Because thats how the deck is
what did I come back to
I dont make the rules i just assign the numbers
why do you hate yorick :(
No I dont get it im not an economist I play balatro
Cuz he sucks
Yoricks the best damn
But we arent talking about him rn
i would disagree
i think black gold stake is easier because black makes early game harder and plasma makes late game harder
ik i just saw your name
with early game you can just hold r
Just the 100% objective deck tierlist
❓
i don't know what you're saying
Holding r in the big 25
i lowkey quit the game after getting c++
I just think yoricks the best one imo
had no other choice but to reset my bus :(
i made a tierlist where instead of using personal anectdotes i use actual cold hard data
Chigoat the best
yeah I like to play balatro holding the one letter key every minute
Yea but we still dont know what you're saying
Yoooooo I finished Golden Needle surprisingly fast
i like you
let me know when you get to that point
thank you hologram
Thanks
i already did
jokerless time :)
best deck
Blue
I did it already

Also surprisingly fast
weirdo
So I'm officially in the C++ club!
you need challenges for c++?
Nah I think you just need all the gold stickers
I have those too
100% club I guess
saving challenges for last is fun
naneinf yet?
This tierlist is NOT for the faint of heart
REAL
Harder than Bai Mountain
Yea doesn't mean its good I still dont understand what it means
Goodnight
Nah, I had a potential run once but I fumbled it
can you send it
Don't have the naneinf itch
naneinf
Ikr id just say which one i like the most because its subjective I like yellow
its what happens if you remove the human element
the value of what each decks give
oh i see how anaglyph is so high then
the yellow deck one is obvious, then you can intuit from that
What does the value mean? Does bigger number equal good?
its only for ante 8, anaglyph would technically be even higher
idk maybe
How am I supposed to believe in your objective data when you dont even know what your data represents ?
yeah it's really bad
if you havent figured it out this is just a bit
We've toughened up you've just confused everyone
is the erratic deck based on deck fixing value 😭
Gold stake should've unlocked a more fun deck
YES FINALLY
I can’t bro 😭 😭
Every death tarot is 3 dollars
It’s a bit
finally someone gets it lmao
thats why erratic is also on every tier
Damn you're so condescending
Why is anaglyph so low
Because they made it up idk
only for ante 8, diet cola cost X 8
Yes.
but you sell the cola so you actually end up paying 3 dollars for a double tag, not 6, so it should be 24 not 48
hmm but it should have a value of $4 b/c of the required sell
i would say
yea but its funnier this way
Idk man its hard to decode what people are actually feeling via text. This is why a lot of misunderstandings happen
also i already made the tierlist
i hadnt considered that, good argument
But if we count jokers abandoned should be $6 for tc
Wdym
i chose the tarot equivalent if possible
plasma and green i just put at +0 because theres no equivalent in balala
so i just gave up
So you're allowed to save money by using cola as a metric but you make abandoned more expensive
flower pot!!!!!!!
What if i sell diet cola to take joker tag and get diet cola
i mean, kinda, but trading card also only works once per round (in most cases), and also you dont get the trading card money from abandoned anyway
Is it short-term EV, long term EV or highest possible value
for the numbers
i just used the closest way to get the value, then the method where you can theoretically do it with the less step and less rounds possible
As a new player , how that build works? My head explodes 
Tarot campfire boom
I had blueprint and bull so just turned all my money into campfire fuel
holy max synergy
Fortune teller at +72 which is higher than average despite me selling all tarots by the end game
also the problem with using jokers for value evaluation is you need to sell the joker afterwards so you need to account for that too.
for anaglyph is the only way to get double tags
for painted its 16 dollars because you effectively start with eternal troub and handy tag (you cant sell the troubadour so the value always stays at 6)
MY LONELINESS IS KILLING ME 🤘
Anyway black should be counted as $15 because it's grabber + half of hieroglyph 
i also just did this in one night half year ago
its blank antimatter - grabber
frick not grabber
FRICK
i forgot about the achievement
and bought a bunch of jokers on the final boss blind o/a white stake madness run
yea the hardest part is stopping yourself from buying more than 4 jokers
How much mult does campfire have?
About 7x
flower pot carry
i was the entire match thinking if i bought more than 4 jokers until i got it
i remember seeing a nat neg blackboard on my painted run to get it
😭
trying to do this on black deck profile ending up just forgetting
i can't tell if checkered deck is insanely op or if ive actually gotten good-ish at the game
i did blue stake first try
i got castle on ante 1
its basically starting with troubador without the -hand
over the course of the run it scaled to 414 chips lol
ok that will do it
smeared*
what
minus specific benefits
oh thought he said painted lmao
it is pretty good
this was the winning loadout (i was looking for a hanging chad to replace fortune teller but it never came)
i mean checkered is basically the flush deck
it makes it easier to pivot to flush houses/straights
and well yeah castle is funny with checker
or just pairs later for more joker versatility
why would you play pairs on checkered deck
i dont see what blackboard has to do with it
and id rather keep playing flushes even with space joker
the other 3 maybe
you're not playing blackboard with flushes when you happen to come by one in the shop for boss blind versatility
what
Mr.mega dont they will eat you alive
You dont know how i embarrassed myself here in this channel before you
i mean, you do this pretty early than late
Kill all yorick slander
no i just dont understand what they said there lol
except for maybe bboard
blackboard makes sense still
i legit don't see why pairs are better on checkered deck of any thingt
half the deck is already black
What is better to sell, tragedy and comedy and take photography, or stay as I am?
prob more in the context of hand scaling mult first
do you mean because its easier to keep blackboard working if you only play pairs as opposed to playing a 5 card hand?
it being checkered doesn't change shit
yeah
mostly bboard and if you found like, stuntman grimbo
but at that point thats not playing checkered
thats basically playing a base deck with no benefit like anaglyph without the skip tags
i mean yes
I know the update was delayed but do we know anything that’s gonna be in the update?
the main benefit is the first four rounds pretty much
the big question is what makes pair any better on checkered than any other deck
guys respond plss
you should be playing flush instead of pairs on checkered if you can help it
i've been making good use of arrowhead, burnt joker, blue seals, etc to make use of the flushes long term
flushes scale way better than pairs in terms of planet levels so ive been trying to play around that whenever reasonably possible
pretty much what I could do with pairs if you wanna force something and work regardless
Guys i need help respond please 🙏
also if you do flush and get some jupiters photochad will always give you the win
they have the same chip scaling lol
like
if you really stretch it
the only advantage of playing pairs with checkered is obelisk
mult has like slightly better on card x mult benefits
if you played a lot of flushes at the beginning and can have pairs catch up in the x mult
okey guys ty
+2 mult vs +1
well checkered is better with obby licks because you're spamming a bigger hand to start with
held in hand effects also
but like flushes being easy to form is also like. the thing checkered does
help guys how do i get merry andy easily
so far sticking with flushes has been what's worked for me so that's what i'm sticking with unless the game tells me not to
grimbo flush is also still pretty damn easy, and supernova flush is a given, really its ride the bus that doesnt mesh well with checkered flush
hand scaling mult w/ pairs doesn't care about mult with mult being an abundant source
yeah
but the strong part of checkered is the fact that you can also just play every face card you have in deck
brothers respond me pls
being able to consistently play a 5 card hand is also just strong in general for getting enhanced card value
so face cards does become pretty good econ too
idk
okey ty likewise
checkered has good benefit for flushes in the sense that it's open to more on card scoring or on card value benefits you usually wouldn't get like hiker or enhancements
less about the planets and more about the benefits of playing a 5 card hand all the time
Less gold and steel cards in hand tho
with the jokers that have better value for bigger hands
hiker is still so mid on checkered ngl, but it does work better
that's hikers fault lol
thats only relevant if you manage to make a large portion of your deck gold/steel
if you manage that i feel like you can probably do whatever you want and still win
flush house is cool too I suppose
i barely use secret hands on checkered ngl
I do it for fun more than for practicality
the best thing you could be doing in checkered is unironically photochad or chad glassing
i tried getting a flush five 2's build with wee joker but game wouldnt give me the tarot cards i needed before the run ended
thats pretty much what ive been doing, trying to get as many flush levels as reasonably possible and spamming literally whatever form of useable xmult comes my way
I've experimented too much with held in hand gimmicks knowing my play style
jupiter is +2 mult and its the easiest hand you can make, also you only ever need 1 face card per hand, so you can do it every hand
with other hands like pair and up, you need 2 or more faces
so checkered flush photochad is pretty much always online for you
imagine a high card photochad build lmao
Shoot the moon kinda goated
fr
baron if it was good
and fun
introduced me the idea of moving my queens and steel for optimal scoring
and multiplayer meta
“How do I know I have found a classy and charming joker?”
“Do they know how to base mult?!?”
didnt drspectred beat gold stake with +mult only using shoot the moon
idk
i havent used it much because it seems really annoying to play around and unlike baron you dont get to go to ante 15 billion with it
it's more for gs stuff
yea i know
you get some funny results when you try to make it work consistently
each stm run is unique
if you use shoot the moon as your main +mult do you end up just playing high card?
I do pairs initially
hc falls off mid game if you don't have both plutos and a chip scaling joker
Pretty easy to do it in checkered too, start at flush, get some plutos, win
checkered might honestly be my favourite deck because flushes are my favourite general hand type
checkered has backup plans
I'd play it more if it didn't make my stats look like your generic reddit player
pairs and 3oak are boring
i struggle to use straights effectively outside of abandoned deck
4oak, 5oak, and the special flushes are too inconsistent on blue stake+
simply dont stop doing it and you will be rewarded 
3oak boring 
i love 3oak
3oak
