invisible joker, ggs

[cloud sinew]

please don't call me bro, and i know what rhetorical questions are i just think its wrong to use them when you're just being passive aggressive

[mint jetty]

I wonder of madness was designed to be used with eternal jokers

[white zodiac]

matador!?
doioioioioing

[tawdry burrow]

Holy shit the Pokémon cards

[west copper]

i picked it up btw

were balling

🙏

[brittle tendon]

What?

[lament crater]

nvm i forgor how burglar works

[west copper]

if i win this run

i deserve a title

[cloud sinew]

you asked "where is the question bro" and i showed you the question that you asked

[brittle tendon]

How?

[lament crater]

peak

[valid abyss]

in this context, "madness doesn't need feeding?", the ? is acting as a "though.. wdym", so it's just fully "madness doesn't need feeding though wdym" or its just to express genuine confusion as a response and it's also stating why you're confused, in this case they're aware madness doesn't need feeding and they were confused why i said that

[white zodiac]

is this another rhetorical

[subtle loom]

funny if they add the soul spectral on the shop

[brittle tendon]

Girl not every '?' is a question and how am I being passive aggressive in this context. At this point you're stretching this

[subtle loom]

edited

[wintry ice]

the question was asked by another person

[narrow wadi]

is this the definition of madness?

[valid abyss]

true

lilo my explanation is the answer the guy you're talking to doesnt really understand your stance

[subtle loom]

madness doesnt need to be feeded in order for it to work

[cloud sinew]

basically every "?" is a question, it's just that some are rhetorical questions

[valid abyss]

we can drop it

[subtle loom]

funny if they add the soul spectral on the shop

[jagged torrent]

Uhhh thoughts on green joker?

[lament crater]

please game, continue to give me every perishable sticker in existance

[subtle loom]

good ig

[cloud sinew]

+85 green joker <3

[valid abyss]

perkeo...

[wintry ice]

easy +70 mult

[valid abyss]

and soul in consumables tab...

[narrow wadi]

green joker like a top 5 joker to see in the first shop

[white zodiac]

plus 68 mult

[lament crater]

i love clearance sale

clearance sale is my bae

ride or die

[narrow wadi]

idk what my top 5 jokers to see in the first shop are tbh

[restive plover]

groker is peak

[cloud sinew]

i wouldnt put it that high

[brittle tendon]

I want a top 5 now

[subtle loom]

stm

[brittle tendon]

Bruh

[subtle loom]

blue joer

[brittle tendon]

Shit is free scaling

[narrow wadi]

probably like uh (assuming i can afford them) pair, stuntman, rtb, trousers, green joker maybe

[narrow wadi]

the 5 i just did isn't in order but is a rough top 5 without thinking

[cloud sinew]

there are better jokers to find in the first shop

[lament crater]

won the run now

[weak coyote]

what do i do

[narrow wadi]

buffoon

[median ridge]

My beloved Hack and Fibonacci.

[white zodiac]

mm riff raff, rebate, vagar, buss, midas

[brittle tendon]

I would still put it top 5, ik a riff raff would be better but anything that can help dictate what the build is and is consistent enough is ideal to me

[valid abyss]

hermit in the buffoon pack

[white zodiac]

burnt

[brittle tendon]

Hold r, it gives you 10 dollars

[cloud sinew]

riff-raff, rebate, spare trousers, burnt joker, ride the bus

[narrow wadi]

i completely forgot about riff raff tbh, and vagabond

[valid abyss]

credit card in the mega celestial pack

[wintry ice]

i'd consider riff, vagabond, pants, midas, rebate and maybe bus a better first pick

[cloud sinew]

5 jokers that are better to find [and be able to buy] shop 1 than green joker

[wintry ice]

and burnt and stuff yea

[narrow wadi]

riff raff might be top 1 ngl forgot about it

[narrow wadi]

i do agree here, i didn't think before saying top 5 lol

[brittle tendon]

I would put them near the same except rtb is higher cause I love mail in rebate

[cloud sinew]

i was gonna say vagabond but i feel like this chat isnt tarot-pilled enough to see the light

[white zodiac]

great minds

[narrow wadi]

green joker is still fantastic shop 1

[brittle tendon]

Wdym vagabond is great to get early

[white zodiac]

they don't know vagabond is scoring in disguise

[subtle loom]

soul in standard pack

[white zodiac]

a couple vagar antagonists have appeared recently

[brittle tendon]

Riff raff
Vagabond
Spare trousers
Ride the bus
Green joker

Thats mine

[valid abyss]

retcon in mega arcana pack

[cloud sinew]

you put green joker over rebate?

[narrow wadi]

this is kinda similar to mine but i probably put stuntman and rebate in over green joker and something else

[brittle tendon]

Damn really? Do they just not know how powerful tarots are?

[cloud sinew]

stuntman early doesnt have the follow-through

it's good but it's not top 5 outside of plasma

[white zodiac]

they don't like the concept of being at 4 bucks

[brittle tendon]

Shit

Uh

[narrow wadi]

maybe, i love the joker's playstyle so i am probably a bit biased

[brittle tendon]

Ok make green 6

[cloud sinew]

so green isnt in your top 5

[subtle loom]

stuntman plus mult is good

[white zodiac]

oh snap

[brittle tendon]

And then rebate 4th

[white zodiac]

4th

[brave goblet]

Absurd what money and a bunch of purple seals can do

[valid abyss]

heres my top 5

1. blueprint

then the rest are all blueprint

[white zodiac]

i

oh

[brave goblet]

All blueprints and no scoring

[cloud sinew]

so theyre doing nothing 🔥

[brittle tendon]

Typo
FLASHBANG
What? What happened? Anyway isn't rebate a top 5 joker guys

[valid abyss]

its just cool to look at

[subtle loom]

i love blue joker

[cloud sinew]

negative flash card is cooler

[subtle loom]

stm are good too

[wintry ice]

it's 1.0 where it's 3$

[white zodiac]

blueprints, unlimited blueprints, but no blueprints

[wintry ice]

so it's just a good joker

[valid abyss]

DIE with HAMMERS

[narrow wadi]

i thought you only liked blue joker

[valid abyss]

i HATE flash card

its not actusally that bad its just that it never appears for me

[wintry ice]

blue jimbo is decent

[valid abyss]

blimbo

[narrow wadi]

i find flash card has the issue of being hard to setup rly early and then it only shows up once i've already scaled a +mult

[restive plover]

nothing beats a double rare joker tag bs and blueprint into dying with no scoring the next round 🔥

[subtle loom]

oops all six for me

[narrow wadi]

i never find it in the middle stage

[restive plover]

forbidden yuri 🔥

[cloud sinew]

we were talking about looks...

[narrow wadi]

where it'd be broken

[willow frost]

unlimited bacon but no blueprint

[valid abyss]

ourple is pretty cool to be honest

[subtle loom]

lioe where is rhe dice

[valid abyss]

but polychrome lucky cards have to be the coolest looking cards in the entire game

[narrow wadi]

it's basic but negative brainstorm looks fire af

[white zodiac]

nice shades

[subtle loom]

it shouldve been rare since it never show up

[valid abyss]

it looks opalescent

[willow frost]

yes

[cloud sinew]

anyway heres my negative card art tierlist
THIS IS A PURELY COSMETIC TIERLIST

[subtle loom]

i got a poly lucky card run lmao

[wintry ice]

i like poly gold cards best

[restive plover]

unlimited banana but no blueprint

[white zodiac]

poly steel and poly gold gives me an identity crisis

[valid abyss]

look at this LOSER put DNA in D tier!!!!! they must not be WINNIGN !!! this is so guys am i RIGHT

[cloud sinew]

for reference, here's campfire 😭

[wintry ice]

erm why is

[cloud sinew]

FUCK

[white zodiac]

[white zodiac]

oh

[cloud sinew]

gross ugly

[narrow wadi]

this is so ass lmao

[white zodiac]

wait send that back

[willow frost]

thats what they call campfire

[wintry ice]

ruins one of the best card arts in the game

[white zodiac]

why was camp in d

[cloud sinew]

nd then here's pisscard

[brittle tendon]

Why is negative flashcard s tier? It's such a shit joker
(I can't read fyi)

[valid abyss]

fire basically didnt change but the rest sucks

[valid abyss]

insert "I'm a balatro player" "I can't read"

[narrow wadi]

i quite like this ngl, i am colourblind so didn't realise it was supposed to look like piss

[wooden magnet]

i have to enjoy whilst it lasts

[brittle tendon]

Kami ain't living that down

[white zodiac]

shiny gray card

[white zodiac]

ahhhh stm stm stm

[subtle loom]

i love tgat

[narrow wadi]

not that type of colourblind lol

[subtle loom]

free mult

[white zodiac]

oh oop

[cloud sinew]

the top 4 negative card arts, for reference

[subtle loom]

8 ball ew

[white zodiac]

I think dagger remains my favorite for what it could've been

the normal dagger

[narrow wadi]

i don't rly like satellite or dagger tbh, ik it's all subjective and i do like that ur top 4 have the same colour scheme

[valid abyss]

celestial dagger looks so fucking good

[narrow wadi]

ur consistent at least

[valid abyss]

it should be #1

8 ball also nice

[restive plover]

negative satellite is crazy\

[subtle loom]

too bad irs tge worst joker

[white zodiac]

the old dagger art had a blue color palette iirc

[narrow wadi]

it's my favourite joker but i honestly don't love the negative

[cloud sinew]

notice how the tierlist gets redder as you go down towards D tier 😭

[valid abyss]

i dislike negative satellite here

[narrow wadi]

it's not the worst!! there are probably like 5 jokers worse

[cloud sinew]

showman! anyway

[narrow wadi]

i love 8 ball even if it's kinda bad

[subtle loom]

the red erasure

[valid abyss]

when did they add the Internal Revenue Service joker

[subtle loom]

the irs joker

[restive plover]

removes $5 from max interest

[subtle loom]

take 1/10 your money (as tax) and add them to your mult

[narrow wadi]

is walkie talkie an aesthetic negative?

[white zodiac]

why is campfire in d 😭
did you not like the flash bang

[valid abyss]

the tierlist should have the joker art actually be negative

[narrow wadi]

if it's an aesthetic negative imma ecto

[cloud sinew]

no!

[white zodiac]

yeah I can't visualize non negative art

[cloud sinew]

it was for a bounty, so it would've just given it away immediately

[subtle loom]

i love red

[valid abyss]

Wht

[cloud sinew]

but yes i shouldve made a negative version

[subtle loom]

im literally a red furry

i am so mad

[white zodiac]

foxy

[cloud sinew]

but that wouldve meant making a unique tierlist format with 150 negative jokers

[narrow wadi]

what does red furry mean? like ur persona is red or something?

[subtle loom]

dagger but worse

[subtle loom]

im a red cat furry

[narrow wadi]

oh ok

[restive plover]

this is an insane callback btw but i just realized this was about my pfp i totally forgot i put it as this. i cannot read

[subtle loom]

but this is for balatro discussion

[white zodiac]

incineroar

oh ok

[narrow wadi]

bottom 5 pokemon for me

[cloud sinew]

not worse, different. dagger is a 2-slot joker while it's scaling, and scales with $ value
this would scale with your $, so it has a higher ceiling, and doesnt require another slot to scale

[subtle loom]

1/10 is too low

[valid abyss]

ha stupid

[subtle loom]

may be rrmove 1/10 and add the doubled value?

[valid abyss]

im sorry but i cant make out a single detail in your pfp

like i can see it

i just cant tell what it is

[white zodiac]

in smash yes
in pokemon games no
in looks

[narrow wadi]

i meant design wise tbh, i play smogon so it's not broken in my gamemode but i do know about the vgc stuff

[white zodiac]

awaiting dagger stencil madness run

[narrow wadi]

now i live in japan i might do some vgc tournaments idk

[vapid nest]

Something with The mouth open

[white zodiac]

yeah ik wym I just wanted to self insert

[subtle loom]

its me kissing my bf

[narrow wadi]

lol, i hate humanoid pokemon tbh- i find them a copout for creative design

[valid abyss]

i still cant tell what the picture is

i can see theres hair and

an eye

[white zodiac]

post mega starmie effect

[olive escarp]

Yes

[narrow wadi]

honestly i love mega starmie, which i know is weird but it's so goofy

[white zodiac]

it's a low poly shitpost

[narrow wadi]

for me hating humanoid pokemon is the gen6 effect where everything became humanoid

[cloud sinew]

discord disabled id lookups so i cant even check that way

[white zodiac]

funnier than a high quality one

[cloud sinew]

anyway, balatro

[winter pike]

balatro

[narrow wadi]

fr, i could make it in like 10 seconds on photoshop but it's such a weird idea that i love it

[scenic mortar]

polychrome tier list when

some cards look really hot when polychromed

[white zodiac]

you need a few gen of stinkers to appreciate what first came out

[subtle loom]

can i send in dm?

[valid abyss]

can we insert Cat in this chat

[white zodiac]

zapdos prob my favorite low poly

[cloud sinew]

🐴

[narrow wadi]

idk i don't hate the new games at all, sword/ shield imo is top 3 mainline games and the legends games are great. I just hate the new humanoids

[white zodiac]

[narrow wadi]

[white zodiac]

[white zodiac]

[orchid comet]

I only own third leg merchandise 😔

[narrow wadi]

[narrow wadi]

[orchid comet]

zapdos is so cool

[white zodiac]

[orchid comet]

[white zodiac]

[narrow wadi]

literally, i have an obsession with zapdos

[narrow wadi]

i'll check it out tho that's a bit of a treck for me

[valid abyss]

this is so balatro discussion right now

[subtle loom]

balatro basics

[orchid comet]

new zapdos joker

[valid abyss]

zero off topic conversation is happening here

[white zodiac]

they have all the gen 5 pokemon, some gen 1, and all the rest sprinkled

[narrow wadi]

zapdos is a dlc joker in the pokemon mod probably

[subtle loom]

what is your favorite joker

[valid abyss]

is picking the white grid lines an option

[orchid comet]

sixth sense

unironically

aside from blueprint

[subtle loom]

not a joker

[white zodiac]

idk if the center in shin-osaka has one but it's the bigger one of the two imo (the one without the nintendo store)

[subtle loom]

sense sound like seven

[narrow wadi]

mine is 8 ball which is kinda similar but much worse

[valid abyss]

are you making us pick from

the Image

or the Balatro Joker Roster™

[narrow wadi]

i'll check and let u know, i've gone to all the tokyo ones

[subtle loom]

yes!

[subtle loom]

sixth seven

[valid abyss]

i pick white grid lines

[white zodiac]

I see, I haven't gone that far north yet

[orchid comet]

💔

[narrow wadi]

[white zodiac]

[scenic mortar]

[pale wolf]

[white zodiac]

[narrow wadi]

[median ridge]

Amazing.

[valid abyss]

i spent time making this

[narrow wadi]

This is the only display for the Shibuya centre

[subtle loom]

repost if you love sixth seven
or if you wish to magically wake up as the joker right next to dagger

[median ridge]

Sixth Sense. What a wonderful gift.

Unimaginable rigging.

[valid abyss]

im eternal so im fine with waking up next to dagger

[scenic mortar]

this is what i originally posted 😭

[robust lance]

The fish

[scenic mortar]

balatro discussion became pokemon and garlic bread discussion 💔

[white zodiac]

do not

dw I got class soon

[scenic mortar]

its ok tho i love pokemon and trans people ❤️‍🩹

[robust lance]

Can’t even go fishing no more 💔

[median ridge]

Garlic Bread is God's Gift to earth.

One of, if not His best work.

[scenic mortar]

flush builds

its all red

if u ignore the polychrome

[white zodiac]

if you're on android you can edit the ppl out of the background if you want to

[robust lance]

You do this and bloodstone doesn’t hit once

[white zodiac]

I love garlic naan

[robust lance]

(I swear it’s sentient)

[median ridge]

It loses even with Oop! All Sixes.

It contains unbridled ire.

[subtle loom]

sixth seven

[robust lance]

Nah it wins then

Especially with two

[subtle loom]

i like red

red is a part of me

[white zodiac]

flush build (blackboard saved my life part 6)

[robust lance]

But when I sold mine to get another copy of bloodstone (ankh, was back when I was greedier, I wanted 3 bloodstones) I lost immediately

[white zodiac]

bran flakes

[scenic mortar]

edible gold flakes

[narrow wadi]

it was tribb, prob like second best to get

[subtle loom]

golden stake

fnf vs balatro

[robust lance]

Would you snort pure gold for 9 bucks

[white zodiac]

worst of the 5*

[robust lance]

Can confirm

[valid abyss]

:3

[robust lance]

Got one through a skip ante 1 and died ante 3

(Didn’t throw I just got unlucky)

[narrow wadi]

this is the first time i've taken the speculative ante 1 tarot skip and gotten soul

[white zodiac]

more than what I get

[scenic mortar]

yorick my favorite legendary because its almost guaranteed to benefit my run

[white zodiac]

yorick my least favorite because I change absolutely nothing to my game plan

[robust lance]

If there was another legendary joker what would be its effect

[coral egret]

who do i replace for blueprint

[robust lance]

Since the 5 got every situation basically

[winter pike]

chigoat

[coral egret]

the pillar is on its way rn so no

[subtle loom]

oh my god you used colon 3

[left juniper]

Chicot is my favourite legendary because it can literally work with any build and nice to get at any ante. The rest (yes even you Perkeo) are more situational

[scenic mortar]

mrrrowwww :333

[winter pike]

how many cards do you have

[narrow wadi]

this would be my favourite ante 1 skip tbf, maybe canio second cos it's so quick to get online as well

[robust lance]

Can’t even be silly?!

[winter pike]

photo then

[subtle loom]

yes!

[white zodiac]

yeah

[subtle loom]

silly is woke!

[median ridge]

How about ;3

[robust lance]

Fuck off (slur) :3

[valid abyss]

[robust lance]

If the jokers were in a society who do you think all of them would like (besides legendaries)

[valid abyss]

Get this community an 8 Ball and make it never work.

[winter pike]

imagine, it'd be peak

[wintry ice]

blue woker

[subtle loom]

thats me

i like blue joker and im woke

[robust lance]

I’d say Mr bones, cause like imagine he gets paid to prevent a joker’s death and then returns to his grave

[valid abyss]

you like yourself?

[robust lance]

Every positive thinking person likes themselves, thinking poorly of yourself never helps

[jagged torrent]

Every time you discard a pair of Queens you get ×2 mult

Real true

[scenic mortar]

if the jokers were in a society luchador would be shot dead in an alleyway 😔

[night turret]

Hmmmm this looks good so far

Just need chips

[robust lance]

Mr bones brings him back

[subtle loom]

matador

[valid abyss]

matador kinda just exists

[robust lance]

Matador should be buffed to 11

[subtle loom]

death palette im painting you why you try not to laugh

[robust lance]

And thsts it

[subtle loom]

ok im getting too off topic here

[robust lance]

No no no keep going

[subtle loom]

look at my gs run

[robust lance]

Green screen?

[scenic mortar]

stop burning your jokers it hurts them

[robust lance]

(I’m kidding)

[scenic mortar]

picking burnt joker is immoral

[subtle loom]

got 3 burnt

because invisible joker

[robust lance]

Then what’s the most moral pick

[subtle loom]

invis the goat

[scenic mortar]

banan

[shrewd bluff]

perishable jokers that show in the cash out screen are scams because they only work four times instead of five

[robust lance]

Fair enough

[night turret]

It should not have taken me this long to get the best joker

[robust lance]

Simply get money faster

[robust lance]

Hours?

(Time played)

[night turret]

Ermmm I have no idea

[robust lance]

Alright that gives me enough of a time frame

[night turret]

I’ve lost track

I’ve been playing since Feb

[robust lance]

I don’t know how much the demos give me cause I did not unlock brainstorm but I could buy it still

[rigid forge]

No Obelisk slander here

[dense wraith]

what

[vocal rose]

super pos was a choice

[hardy fable]

credit card in the jolly joker

[vocal rose]

could’ve afforded that rebate

[dense wraith]

No???

[subtle loom]

hi stuntman

[hardy fable]

Just found out that I suck at peglin, imma go back to balatro

[shrewd bluff]

only two more wins until I get Completionist + 🥺

[dense wraith]

even before I opened the buffoon pack I still couldn't afford rebate

[subtle loom]

thank you stuntman

[night turret]

If you get swash, it’s good

[hardy fable]

it what I do, carry runs

[hardy fable]

it's an investment, you need to wait for the temperance fr

[vocal rose]

if you find two temperance’s you’ll get a return

[narrow wadi]

ouija has a 2/13 chance to be insane here given i drew so few kings and queens

the logical man in me says skip

the gambler in me says ouija

[dense wraith]

yeah good joker, I couldn't care less for the -2 hand size I'll just play high card or pairs then without any hesitation

[vocal rose]

ankh trib

[tawdry burrow]

I find spectral cards to be fucking weird

[narrow wadi]

i like a fellow gambler, the max 1/3 chance always hits

[vocal rose]

delete everything

[narrow wadi]

2 eternals

[tawdry burrow]

They're supposed to give you something for a drawback except some don't

[vocal rose]

I know

do it for the 1/3

[tawdry burrow]

Kill even

[hardy fable]

yes because pairs are the best

[narrow wadi]

i rly wanna, imma think about it

[willow frost]

you couldve played on checkered, right

[narrow wadi]

maybe

like uh

if it hits

it's so hype

it's not even better than my current setup

but still

it's hype

[willow frost]

or just found a regular ace high straight and then use a suit changing tarot

[subtle loom]

or lover

[tawdry burrow]

I like checkered

[willow frost]

also works

[subtle loom]

flush run

[tawdry burrow]

It + paintbrush allows you to draw flush pretty much all the time

[narrow wadi]

i find anaglyph the most fun, yellow my most consistent

[hardy fable]

blue for me

[tawdry burrow]

And Wrathful + Arrowhead = big win

[hardy fable]

anyways off to get 250% fr

[night turret]

I tried

Almost never got it

[narrow wadi]

most fun or consistent?

either is a bit rogue but valid

[night turret]

Accidentally played it by accident once

[tawdry burrow]

Plasma is fucking weird for me

[willow frost]

you couldnt do that since february?

what about the tarot strat

[night turret]

Yes, now stop with the rage bait

[hardy fable]

consistent Most fun for me is uhhh idk, painted ig

[night turret]

Time to play on purple

[willow frost]

ok sorry i wasnt trying to

just genuinely shocked

[narrow wadi]

blue deck i win like over half the time on gold stake which is a bit above average, yellow it's like 75% tho

it's weird how different ppl have different optimal decks

[hardy fable]

I can't use yellow because I have a spending addiction

even on white, when I can still survive for one more ante I just reroll to 0 dollars

[narrow wadi]

fair lol, even with a spending addiction tho u get to 25 bucks insanely fast to let u spend more

[willow frost]

just did this in one reset fucking hell lol

[wintry ice]

yellow just leads to the most insane starts

[narrow wadi]

i'm assuming u already unlocked brainstorm

[willow frost]

yeah

[narrow wadi]

and most consistent imo, u get an early mult joker and then stack interest much much quicker

[violet sparrow]

any tips for blue deck before i go do that?

[narrow wadi]

play exactly how u played red deck tbh

blue deck is just a slightly better red deck imo

[violet sparrow]

oh ok

[buoyant crater]

that mean if in my first hand of the game i have a 6, its gonna transform ?
i ask a lot of questions but the translation is so fuckup up in french

[narrow wadi]

for a more comprehensive breakdown a standard build is +mult, +chips, xmult. an early econ joker is the best way to get this

[night turret]

So what it is

[narrow wadi]

any early econ joker is worth picking up

[night turret]

If you play a 6 in the first hand, it gets destroyed and gives spectral pack

[slow iris]

first hand containing only a 6 gets destroyed and spawns a spectral card

[night turret]

But it can only be a single 6

[buoyant crater]

thanks, it did not say that at all in french lmao

oh wait

[buoyant crater]

oh thats it, make more sense

thats bad right ?

[narrow wadi]

it's pretty good early

[night turret]

If you can read in English, just play in English

[narrow wadi]

it thins the deck and spectral cards are pretty good

[night turret]

It’s better if you can’t understand it

[slow iris]

it's deckfixing + spectral generation

it can be good

[buoyant crater]

i can read english but im afraid that it can be difficult to read and understand what some cards do bc it can be some very specific words that i dont know

okay guys, thanks !

but since french is very awful, i might be

[narrow wadi]

i assumed french was ur first language lol

it might be decent for learning languages to play in french though

i used to play games in french when i was first learning

[buoyant crater]

it is indeed, thats why my game is in french, but there is a LOT of miss traduction

i might do this for english then

[narrow wadi]

ahhh cool, idk how the game translates tbh lemme check the screenshot u sent lol

[buoyant crater]

someone active here said she will like help for the translation

[narrow wadi]

ngl the description in french is 100% accurate

[buoyant crater]

i send a few screenshot of some cards that make no senses at all

[narrow wadi]

it's just being new at the game

[buoyant crater]

oops

sorry

[narrow wadi]

i can speak french and english (my mum is belgian) so i can help if u find anything confusing

[buoyant crater]

thanks billy!!

[narrow wadi]

np

[hybrid tendon]

hi that was me lol

I'm not that active

[buoyant crater]

it was you yes !

[willow frost]

japanese belgian waffle mentioned

[narrow wadi]

lmao i do live in japan and am half belgian

[coral summit]

playing the vs update

[buoyant crater]

if i translate word by word it mean

'' if the first hand of the round (game?) is a simple 6, destroy it and it will create a spectrale card ''

[willow frost]

ah no way lol

[narrow wadi]

this is pretty much exactly what it does

[buoyant crater]

thats make no sense

[deep rapids]

first hand of the round

not the whole game

[narrow wadi]

if the first card of the round is a single 6, destroy it and get a spectral card

[buoyant crater]

wdym a simple 6 ? it mean i have to get only one card and it has to be a 6 ? or if in my first hand there is a 6 it will work ?

[willow frost]

yeah

[deep rapids]

single six

is what its supposed to be

[narrow wadi]

i didn't realise it said simple lmao

shld be seul

[buoyant crater]

yes

[deep rapids]

W spelling

[buoyant crater]

okay then lmao sorry all

[deep rapids]

np

[willow frost]

nah its not your fault

[narrow wadi]

it was a very valid question with the wording of the card ngl

[coral summit]

yall will have to tell me how accurate these are to balatro's mechanics

the new map is the "ante chamber" which effectively recreates balatro's ui
the remix is in proper 7/4 time sig, which the game awards failed to do, i like it a lot
you unlock jimbo by finding him in a coffin (this is normal for vampire survivors characters)

jimbo's weapon is "Infernolatro" which replicates the fire effect you get from overscoring
it can be evolved into "NaneInferno" because naneinf funny

[buoyant crater]

thats cool all, thanks (:

[narrow wadi]

is burglar an econ joker?

i feel like it kinda is

[deep rapids]

can be

bc more hands left over more money

[narrow wadi]

i'm picking it up rn as an econ joker cos i have half joker

[deep rapids]

but also it anti synergizes with stuff like rebate, gratification, etc.

[wintry ice]

it's usually pretty good

[narrow wadi]

if i had any of these i would not be picking it up as an econ joker lol

[coral summit]

the other new survivors are canio (fibonacci spritz, evolves into royal flush), chicot (gros michel, evolves into cavendish), and perkeo (celestial booster, evolves into negative space)

[wintry ice]

works with the scaling mult jokers pretty well

[deep rapids]

well yea but just sayinf

[wintry ice]

is the jimbo update paid or not

[narrow wadi]

what's ur favourite scaling mult joker?

mine is trousers

[coral summit]

free

[wintry ice]

dagger

it's fun to use

[coral summit]

it's dlc though so you have to download it manually

[narrow wadi]

true

[coral summit]

but it's free

[narrow wadi]

a good reason

[wintry ice]

on mobile too?

[narrow wadi]

i find trousers very fun

[coral summit]

not sure if its on mobile yt

[wintry ice]

pants is fun too

[coral summit]

its on pc but its not on switch yet

[willow frost]

flash card

[narrow wadi]

the english american divide lol

[wintry ice]

i like dagger because of how unique it is

[narrow wadi]

i either get it too early to scale or so late that i've already scaled a +mult joker

[cunning glen]

chat whats the best way to get Balatro on my school computer?-

[coral summit]

i personally cant wait to unlock chicot
i need to know how busted the bananas are

[willow frost]

thats fair

i will not argue this lol

[narrow wadi]

i wish i got it more in the middle of a run

but i never do lol

in the middle of a run with like a reroll voucher it's for sure crazy

[wintry ice]

also the planet weapon looks cool

[willow frost]

i usually get it when i have a few other jokers early on, so taking it doesnt destroy my scoring

[willow frost]

yeah i love the reroll vouchers

[narrow wadi]

where yall seeing the update news?

[wintry ice]

hope it doesn't run into the same issue vespers dk

[narrow wadi]

i never see it when i want it lol

[wintry ice]

#📢・announcements

[willow frost]

but i understand that doesnt usually happen

[narrow wadi]

ah tyty

[wintry ice]

vs got an update

[oak jasper]

why tho

u dont get money from first small blind

unless u get lucky with some good draw

[wintry ice]

i think flash is fine to take in like ante 3 or so if you still need a form of long term scoring

[narrow wadi]

i put reroll voucher probably second in my rankings

[smoky vessel]

FUCK IT WE BALL

[willow frost]

overstock #1 right

[wintry ice]

you usually get 2-3$ from it

[narrow wadi]

ofc

[willow frost]

lets go

[wintry ice]

that combined with the first shop is better than most tags that can show up that early

[narrow wadi]

i like boss reroll late on for consistency but it doesn't have the same consistency as reroll or overstock

[cloud sinew]

balatro

[narrow wadi]

an ante 6 boss reroll token the most valuable imo

[cloud sinew]

hello

[oak jasper]

I mean a holo free joker is worth more

[wintry ice]

overstock and grabber

[narrow wadi]

hi

[wintry ice]

depends on what you get as a holographic

[cloud sinew]

pick a top 4 deck (blue/yellow/abandoned/zodiac) for me to streak rn

[wintry ice]

there's a high chance the joker may be unusable due to stickers

[narrow wadi]

i might put reroll over grabber in my list although it's very close

[oak jasper]

cross fingers and pray

[wintry ice]

zodiac

[cloud sinew]

yay

[oak jasper]

it is ante 1

[narrow wadi]

yellow is my most consistent by a big margin, zodiac is much more fun though

[oak jasper]

• u get money from boss

[wintry ice]

so you acknowledge that it's unreliable

[oak jasper]

if u wanna 100% win then yh ofc

it depends on the tags

[cloud sinew]

im taking the judgement here

SPLASH

OH MY GOD

😭

[oak jasper]

then on what u get if good

[wintry ice]

insane

[cloud sinew]

actually like...

[narrow wadi]

you can still buffoon

[cloud sinew]

one of the worst sell value pulls from judgement too

[wintry ice]

flower pot synergy

[narrow wadi]

the more i play the game the more i use judgement ngl

also tower

[cloud sinew]

okay agate for 5 rounds isnt terrible...

[wintry ice]

stone cards are good

[narrow wadi]

it's a free 1 round exit for early antes

[cloud sinew]

splash synergy :3

[narrow wadi]

fr

[cloud sinew]

REBATE

[oak jasper]

but u could still get bad shops if u dont skip

[wintry ice]

run saved

[narrow wadi]

i never picked tower when i started

now it's a pretty frequent pick

[wintry ice]

the chance of a bad shop is lower than the chance that the one joker you get from a joker tag isn't that useful

[cloud sinew]

$10 from rebate, i love rebate

i do hope it gets nerfed though

[oak jasper]

there is still a shop tho

[oak jasper]

what was rebate

[cloud sinew]

holy...

[cloud sinew]

rebate was on 3's

[wintry ice]

1 less

[oak jasper]

no I dont rmemeber what rebate was

[wintry ice]

5$ per (random rank) discarded

[fluid rose]

Should I get it

[oak jasper]

ah yh

[cloud sinew]

dont fail me now (ALSO HI SEEING DOUBLE SPLASH SYNERGY)

omg supernova

[wintry ice]

can't be terrible

[fluid rose]

Eternal egg

[cloud sinew]

SQUARE

FOIL SQUARE

[cloud sinew]

THE RUN IS SO FAR FROM COOKED

rebate, foil square, supernova and seeing double within 4 rounds

[wintry ice]

"it's so over" into "we're so back"

[narrow wadi]

goddamn an s tier joker and 2 A+ tiers (in my personal tier list)

surely that's a free win

[cloud sinew]

best possible pull from square joker as well

non-perishable non-rental foil square

[narrow wadi]

i didn't see square

i don't love square without foil

it's so slow to scale

with foil it's crazy

[wintry ice]

it gets to 200 quite easily

[cloud sinew]

in lobotomy square works very well

[wintry ice]

and even like 120 or so is enough with scaling mult

[narrow wadi]

i still like square cos it's scaling chips which is always good, it's just a very slow chips scaler imo

anything which scales is good

[wintry ice]

yeah it's just a guarranteed chip source

[narrow wadi]

maybe not like vampire, it's ok when there is literally no other xmult but it feels so bad to take

[cloud sinew]

hi hologram

bye splash

[narrow wadi]

i love hologram ngl

it's so fast in the scaling

[cloud sinew]

:3 grim in spectral

[cloud sinew]

supernova is at +8, do i pivot from supernova -> bus to avoid Eye killing me

base pair is 55x5

[narrow wadi]

hologram is what square joker wishes it was ngl, sure it makes u dilute ur deck more but it gets to 2x so fucking fast

[cloud sinew]

i think i do

[wintry ice]

different niche

[narrow wadi]

how many hands is it taking u to get out?

[wintry ice]

it's not too late to do so

[narrow wadi]

if >1 u take bus

if 1 u stick with supernova imo

[junior jasper]

do you guys think localthunk has his own game 100%'d

[willow frost]

yes

[junior jasper]

i think every game dev should have to 100% their own game in order to release it

[cloud sinew]

i can one-shot atp, and i can underscore very easily by playing non-pairs and by reordering jokers

[narrow wadi]

At this point it is too complicated for me to advise, I’m sure ur clever enough to make a better decision than I would

[cloud sinew]

okay so...

[narrow wadi]

I would probably stick with supernova just cos it’s easier

[cloud sinew]

goodbye see2

[willow frost]

on the one hand i understand and agree, but with some games it gets brutal lmao

[narrow wadi]

This is so greedy, u don’t need more xmult so they give it to you so that I don’t get it in my next run

[willow frost]

i dont think john tetris completed tetris when he created it

[narrow wadi]

I saw the film and he was Russian so it must be Vladimir Tetris

[willow frost]

i forgot about that

that would make sense

[cloud sinew]

i think this is one of those scenarios where I'm scaling so much that heiroglyph is the play

one more ante for +mult/+chips/xmult scaling

[cloud sinew]

im sorry square... you gotta go buddy

[cloud sinew]

#⚙・modding-general

[buoyant ridge]

i destroyed myself

[gusty magnet]

dude i have NOTHING

[summer jay]

Be there or be square
And it made its choice

[gusty magnet]

whats a gal like me supposed to do in this situation

[cloud sinew]

uhhhh

idk what you were offered before this point

[summer jay]

Start new run

[uncut slate]

have something

[wintry ice]

take the uncommon skip because you're at 0$ !!!!!!

[quick lodge]

does splash cancel out bosses like the plant?

[wintry ice]

no

[cloud sinew]

no

[uncut slate]

i lost THREE runs yesterday and they were all MY FAULT

[junior jasper]

#stopmakingcollectiblesrequiredfor100%'s

[summer jay]

This is a roundabout way of saying to not include collectibles in games

[shell seal]

[junior jasper]

i hate collectibles

[summer jay]

[uncut slate]

just collect them

[summer jay]

500 flags across 7 maps

[shell seal]

#stopmakingachievementsingames

[cloud sinew]

no

[junior jasper]

❌

[summer jay]

#unlimitedgamesbutnogames

[uncut slate]

most games i just kinda accept that 100% isn't for me

[junior jasper]

#unlimitedbaconbutnobacon

[junior jasper]

i have a platinum in elden ring nightreign

thats it

[wintry ice]

collectibles are fine if they're not unreasonable

[shell seal]

Same

[robust iris]

What should I do? This run started amazing

[junior jasper]

"find 30-" you lost me

[cloud sinew]

this should be the case for most people. most people arent going to sink that much time into that many games

[uncut slate]

if i don't enjoy 100% of the game then i won't enjoy 100%ing the game

[shell seal]

I was fine doing it when I was younger tho

[wintry ice]

30 is reasonable for a medium to large game

[junior jasper]

i dont want to spend 6 hours searching for fox collectibles for a bronze trophy

[summer jay]

Gacha game 100% speedrun

[uncut slate]

but with balatro i have enjoyed everything except high stake plasma deck so far

[robust iris]

Guys can anyone help me, I got a good run Start and I don’t want to ruin it

[junior jasper]

play cards

[robust iris]

🥀

[wintry ice]

copy photo and go next

focus a bit more on economy

[finite palm]

This feels like an insult 😭

[floral mural]

im fine with collectibles for 100% if theyre not 200 randomly placed objects and more similar to grubs and fleas from the hollow knight series

[junior jasper]

take a picture and get your money up

[junior jasper]

yes

at least i got a reward for finding them

[uncut slate]

if you enjoy collecting them then you should enjoy collecting 100% of them

[cloud sinew]

like, look at balatro. the mean time to get all achievements based on TTB is ~220 hours. if youre going off of steam's records then ~1/200 people who play the game get C++

[junior jasper]

well yes if you like collecting, collect all you want

[floral mural]

roguelikes 100% usually take that long regardless btw

[junior jasper]

if you like cereal eat cereal

🔥

[uncut slate]

don't complain that you don't get 100% grocery store completion for not liking cereal 👍

[junior jasper]

yes

[floral mural]

for me i usually go for games i like for all reasonable achievements and collectibles

if the game is just alright i drop it after beating it

[robust iris]

Wha jokers should i aim for?

[junior jasper]

i've collected a few 100%'s (6 exactly) and there is definitely levels to getting 100%'s.

[floral mural]

fuck that time trial crosscode achievement for having all 3 debuffs on at once

[uncut slate]

i compete all the parts i like and then whatever i did complete is the exact % of the game i liked

[floral mural]

my ass aint ever doing that

[wintry ice]

just chad or scaling xmult i guess

i'd focus on planets instead

[wintry ice]

fuck colo 3 🔥

[cloud sinew]

I've 100%'d tboi, ror2, and balatro²

[narrow wadi]

i assume i go stuntman over blue but like i'm a hard stuck pair build given supernova is on +64 but like i should get pairs most of the time right?

idk if i go stuntman over blue

[uncut slate]

pair level?

[floral mural]

crosscode is an amazing game but the decision to make some collectibles for 100% permanently missable (like 3 chests and 2 quests which are simple to miss) is diabolical

[uncut slate]

i would lean hologram

because it's busted

[narrow wadi]

very low (5) very few mercuries

[wintry ice]

yea

[junior jasper]

I've 100%'d Sifu, Nightreign, RDR2, RoR2, Hollow Knight, and Terraria

[narrow wadi]

it's ante 7 with no current packs

[junior jasper]

all incredible games

[narrow wadi]

i am lacking chips

not xmult

[uncut slate]

and magic trick

[wintry ice]

100%ing terraria is wild

[junior jasper]

its so peak

[narrow wadi]

no magic trick

[cloud sinew]

im just talking about roguelikes

[junior jasper]

i love terraria

[narrow wadi]

idt i ever pick up hologram

it's way too late

[junior jasper]

im talking everything

[narrow wadi]

and no current packs to scale

[junior jasper]

👅

[wintry ice]

terraria is great but it's massive

[floral mural]

nuclear throne is a game id say you should never 100% and its mostly because one character would already be a commitment

theres like 13

[narrow wadi]

the question is blue joker or stuntman

[junior jasper]

i love terraria so much, i will never hate it

[narrow wadi]

i think the answer is stuntman

but idk

[junior jasper]

RoR2 was just unpleasant to me

[cloud sinew]

comparing across such a wide range of genres isnt that fair tbf

[junior jasper]

the 100% at least

[wintry ice]

i play modded terraria a lot

[junior jasper]

Well the only roguelikes i've 100% is ror2 and nightreign

[narrow wadi]

tbf hologram is an uncommon which is another baseball card proc

so like maybe that's worth

[junior jasper]

calamity ❤️

[narrow wadi]

one sec

[unreal iron]

getting a lot of annoying jokers out of the way first sure is something

[wintry ice]

i play everything except cal as far as mods go

[unreal iron]

seance and ice cream gone basically

[wintry ice]

the most recent time i played it was for infernum and wotg

[cloud sinew]

MT my goat

[robust iris]

🪦 🥀

[narrow wadi]

ngl i rly need help here, what do i do? i need chips and supernova is on 64 for pairs

i don't need chips if i keep blue

[junior jasper]

i played quite a considerable amount of modded terraria, most of it being in calamity and thorium

[narrow wadi]

but is stuntman better with compulsory pairs?

is hologram better than ramen?

idk

[floral mural]

blue for stuntman sounds like itll solve that issue

but with pairs being your supernova idk

do you have any hand size vouchers?

[narrow wadi]

i'm fine for chips with either, this is the play i know but idk how much the double chips is worth not always having pairs

[narrow wadi]

no

[cloud sinew]

considering i have 4 faces in a deck of 48, im not gonna avoid faces either

[unreal iron]

it usually is yes

[uncut slate]

holo is an insta 1.5x which is probably about what blue is adding

and it can get bigger

[narrow wadi]

this shop might honestly be the hardest shop i've had for a while

[wintry ice]

are you scoring 2x the blind requirement

[narrow wadi]

in ante 7 big blind i mean

[narrow wadi]

wdym?

[wintry ice]

can you live without the 2x

[narrow wadi]

i'm beating the blinds in like 3 hands if that's what u mean

uh

kinda

[white zodiac]

damn i only play cal

[narrow wadi]

i have 7 hands and can win in 3 rn

so ye

idk if stuntman over blue and hologram over ramen is worth

[wintry ice]

honestly cal is mediocre compared to a lot of mods i've played

[finite palm]

What a waste of natural negative

[narrow wadi]

i thought about it and hologram over ramen is 100% not worth

[white zodiac]

what do you play, i’ve just played cal, infernum, thorium, and some qol stuff

[narrow wadi]

i need 4 added cards for it to be better

idk about stuntman over blue now

stuntman is double chips but like

[wintry ice]

secrets of the shadows, mod of redemption, spooky mod and polarities are some of my favorites

[narrow wadi]

how many pairs am i missing

[wintry ice]

homeward journey is cool too and fargo's souls is getting an update

[uncut slate]

blue is probably 1.5 chips which is what hologram does for you just off baseball card alone

[white zodiac]

safer as a hc than a pair with that kind of restriction. especially with value cards
