Negatives are only good in tag deck

And with abstract joker

Since they buff it

covert bison

I reached naneinf not even halfway through

I almost always take negative tags unless I have something I'm trying to scale. They often hit econ jokers or support jokers that are nice to have. I got a negative rocket and to the moon for insane econ a few runs ago

whereas your photo is x16, bloodstone is over x64, and cat could scale to over x30

Tarot cards are useful

what's the purpose of the eternal egg here

#

temperance valye

jovial mica
#

Oh right

floral mural
#

you actually take egg for tempereance more than just the cash so the eternal is sometimes good

#

it is a risk tho still since single tarot

jovial mica
#

yeah

#

but also if u get that one finisher that disables jokers and it just disables the egg

#

it's basically a free hand if you can oneshot it

#

oneshots are hard to do with high card though

#

crimson heart is my lesst favourite boss blind in general

#

the chance to get destroyed with no counterplay is lame

jovial mica

if my finisher yesterday was crimson idk how cooked id be

if it disabled my rebate I'd be fine, but my chad or photo? cooked

playing straights with this deck seems insane btw

well, I kinda new jokerless meta was either straights or 4oaks

all of my value generation was in the ace-10 straights territory anyway

I thought it's gonna be worse

Getting C++ on 3 profiles definitely got me prepared for the challenges

My worst experience was cruelty

but honestly, mime carried both jokerless and GN

Jokerless became fun for me

Blue Seals are so powerful

they are busted

hence mime the goat

signal frigate

It's tied with the best seals with purple

#

Purple and Blue are the best seals in the game

solid garden
#

ok, surely i beat cruelty first try too (clueless)

signal frigate

You probably won't

It took me weeks for my first profile

Holy shit

So it literally gives you a way to make Canio stronger

What is this luck?

signal frigate
#

Around ante 7, there's a Polychrome Jack in one of the standard packs, turn it into a King

signal frigate

The chances of this happening are crazy

signal frigate

Brainstorm mod does exactly that

#

It's not exactly luck, more so just brute forcing our way in

No way I got the best seed

I wonder what is the most played seed is unseeded

If any seed got replayed at all

How many seeds are there anyway?

# cerulean parcel 150 quintillion

There's 36 characters and 8 digits for each seed, so by that, we can ASSUME that there's about 3 trillion seeds that exists

(36^8)+(36^7)+(36^1)

#

We could be wrong, that formula is probably incorrect

Looks inside

ALEEB

#

I wonder if aleeb or 52 spade 10s on erratic is replayed more tbh

fading cobalt
#

I think roffle would've made aleeb more popular

#

He's the reason I played it

solid garden
#

funnily enough, I didn't run any of them

#

I never played seeded

fading cobalt
#

But I was new so

solid garden
#

maybe i I should try some seeds

signal frigate

We have changed

#

I stopped going after seeds

Gold Stake's basically my default now lmao

What is it with small amounts of people making insanely good indie games

Anecdotal evidence of why it's fun to negative skip... Free econ

Imo the best games get made when they are made by primarily one person

There's Triple A studio games that are just as good as most Indie games

Only a few examples

I think that the ratio of bad to good games is higher for indie games as compared to AAA but its just that bad indie games get NO reception whatsoever. While bad AAA are still usually got by the masses and has a lot of marketing

Expedition 33, Baldur's Gate 3 and Battlefield 6 devs KNOWS their audience and they focus more on the players, rather than shareholders

Actually, Expedition 33 is surprisingly, an indie game

#

Lmao

quartz ember
#

imagine not needing to maximize income and minimize production costs simultaneously

terse saffron
#

not bloated deck with andy

#

easy to be overdiscarding

signal frigate
#

Yorick is already a pretty fucking strong joker

#

You don't have to greed for it

#

It only requires you to PLAY the game

amber vigil
lucid plank
#

All the legendaries are pretty strong... Except canio on abandoned

signal frigate
amber vigil
signal frigate
#

Abandoned doesn't say you are not allowed to have face cards

signal frigate
amber vigil
signal frigate
#

Just make them.

#

You have 10's

amber vigil
signal frigate
#

I've done several Photochad runs on fuckin abandoned

lucid plank
amber vigil
signal frigate
#

Canio and Yorick are tied to being the best Legendary jokers in the game imo

#

Kanye West is just SLIGHTLY worse due to him needing a tiny bit of luck

#

And Yorick literally requires you almost nothing to have it's benefits

lucid plank
amber vigil
signal frigate
#

Trib is possibly the worst of the bunch

amber vigil
signal frigate
#

Yeah

#

It has the same problem with Idol and Baron, they require alot of effort and have too many risk

tranquil cedar
#

✋😭✋

lucid plank
#

Trib is still very powerful if you have some levels in a high hand

amber vigil
#

I mean, perkeo also doesnt help immediately

signal frigate
amber vigil
#

Nothing comes close to the chigoat tho

signal frigate
#

Chicot is beaten down alot but I honestly think it's top 3 best lmfao

#

You usually only need 3 scoring jokers at least

lucid plank
signal frigate
#

The other two slots reserved for stuff like econ

#

But having Chicot means you never have to worry about boss blinds anymore

amber vigil
#

Yall fw cloud nine?

signal frigate
#

It makes Trib a safe pick if you HAPPEN to find it alongside chicot

signal frigate
#

I like it

#

You can as much 9's as you want

#

That's alot of money

signal frigate
royal bobcat
lucid plank
#

Chicot also gives permanent hand size if his effect activates multiple times on the manacle

royal bobcat
#

thats how strong it is

#

cloud nine is great

lucid plank
royal bobcat
#

it's rocket but it starts at four dollars

signal frigate
#

We need actual 9's synergy so Cloud 9 becomes more appreciated

amber vigil
#

Had a run recently where i tried to deckfix towards a nine of hearts idol and i was getting 34 dollars from c9

signal frigate
#

I still think Rocket is better though

royal bobcat
#

worst case scenario it's four dollars, so as good as golden joker, which is a good joker

signal frigate
#

But I suppose cloud 9 rewards you for helping it

royal bobcat
#

best case scenario it's an investment tag (if not multiple) every round

signal frigate
#

That's also Rocket

#

None of these are as good as Rebate though

royal bobcat
#

i mean rebate is like

#

the best joker in the game

signal frigate
#

Rebate is just too good

royal bobcat
#

not counting blueprint

signal frigate
#

Even without copy jokers, 20 potential dollars for ONE SINGULAR DISCARD

#

That's pretty strong

royal bobcat
#

and imagine when blue stake won't be -1 discard anymore

signal frigate
#

If Thunk hears the people's complaints about it being too strong then he might also change Rebate

royal bobcat
#

rebate could be four dollars

#

i think that's a worthwhile trade

#

one more discard, one less dollar

signal frigate
#

It'll still be pretty goddamn strong

royal bobcat
#

it would still be very good

#

but i don't think rebate being very strong is an issue

lucid plank
#

Blue stake really is the hardest spike in difficulty since it makes everything less reliable

acoustic kettle
#

3 dollar

royal bobcat
#

3 dollars feels like its not enough

acoustic kettle
#

3 dollar rebate is still good

signal frigate
#

Purple Stake is the biggest jump in difficulty for high stakes runs, Blue Stake is just oppressive as fuck

amber vigil
royal bobcat
#

blue stakes makes the meta 95% pair 5% everything else

#

not great game design

#

imho

amber vigil
acoustic kettle
#

purple scaling is not that bad if you have 3 discards

signal frigate
royal bobcat
#

purple scaling feels like the correct scaling

signal frigate
#

Purple just bumps up the numbers pretty fuckin high

amber vigil
lucid plank
# signal frigate It's Purple but sure

Nah purple is just get better at scoring, that's easy. It's not that much more difficult than blue. But blue actively making your deck less reliable is a massive spike from what came before.

signal frigate
#

1.2mil violet vessel chips requirement for ante 8 is gonna make you shit your pants if you're just starting

royal bobcat
#

i think purple is a big jump yeah

#

but like

#

i like it

#

i think 400k by a8

#

is cool

#

give me my discard back

#

fucko

#

give it

#

GIVE IT

signal frigate
#

Purple QUADRUPLES the requirements on top of adding Blue Stake's effect

#

That shit is brutal, and an insane jump

royal bobcat
#

no

#

it doubles it

acoustic kettle
#

quadruples compared to white

signal frigate
royal bobcat
#

well we're talking about blue stake so i thought we were comparing it with the stake prior to blue stake

orchid comet
#

hello

#

can I ask smtg about bu

signal frigate
#

Sure

acoustic kettle
#

la bu bu

royal bobcat
#

labubu in the chat

orchid comet
#

two things

  1. he let the dagger eat bp for some reason even when if he kept the bp he'd have x2 dagger mult (which was at 40 something) and instead he just got less than 10 mult on dagger
  2. he destroyed face cards... why? His deck isn't focused on any specific card type and face cards score him the most points...
#

sorry for the para

signal frigate
#

I'd say for raw difficulty, Purple is the steepest jump

orchid comet
#

that's why the egg and three gifts

signal frigate
acoustic kettle
#

he wants dagger mult

signal frigate
#

His only goal is to get dagger as high as possible

acoustic kettle
#

not effective mult

amber vigil
#

Purple stake scaling really makes you appreciate steel cards and such

signal frigate
#

BP isn't necessary for it

lucid plank

in the end doesnt matter which ones you hang as long as they are not enhanced/sealed

orchid comet

he wants dagger mult though

quartz ember
#

well you dont need more score

acoustic kettle
#

not scoring

lucid plank
#

Has LT said what he's replacing Blue Stakes's effect with?

acoustic kettle
#

if he doesn't eat then it is like 4 mult wasted

orchid comet
#

hmm okay

quartz ember
#

you just need 75k total

orchid comet
#

the kings was the main thing I was confused about anyway

#

that made no sense for me

quartz ember
#

either boss evasion or just for the funi

acoustic kettle
#

just the latter

#

dagger prob got ungodly amounts of mult already

orchid comet
#

was probably 80

#

I don't remember the exact number

quartz ember
#

doc often does things that are most funi when it doesnt matter, like daggering legendaries

orchid comet

oh I'm so set

#

fuck nvm

#

definitely threw that run away

atomic lagoon
#

scary face and the joker that registers all ur playing cards as face cards is lowk a cracked combo ive come to realise

dense wraith
#

half joker not working when scaling spare trousers mattered more than I thought it would

#

also why were two pairs not drawing

#

I only had 2 that drew there

#

now I just had an early stickerless runner run that I die anyway on cause no straights got drawn

also 1000 points without any flat mult is kinda hard anyway

I was gonna say why did u even have half joker specially with trousers then checked the ante

#

#

orchid comet
#

I do love the +2 hand size of painted deck

I've got 3 days stuck in ONLY the gold stake

i got 150 of the stickers but theres still 30 more i cant find

painted is in the bottom half of decks for consistency but it's nowhere near black

#

the hand size is nice

#

i hate nebula bc i make bad plays when im bored and nebula is boring

#

I'm never touching it again if I can avoid it

slate lance
#

Me too

#

Rn im doing magic deck

#

Ive done the worst 3 decks already

#

Black painted and nebula

dense wraith
#

come on painted cant be that bad

nova mantle
#

And I've gotten EVERYTHING like red card, grimbo rtb obelisk and I can't ever win coz I fumble 💔
1 consumable slot also feels miserable in my opinion

slate lance
#

IT IS

fading cobalt
#

Black deck is just terrible cuz it fucks up your early game, less econ means less chances to buy jokers so until you get that econ that 6th joker slot doesnt even do anything and then you are constantly at risking of dying cuz you cant beat the boss with 3 hands

dense wraith
#

especially with much better straight consistency

slate lance
#

Painted deck almost tripled my usage of 'ectoplasm' in my stats

I feel like itd be easy

name this build

nova mantle
#

The original plan was to gold stake black and plasma right ahead but plasma was so ass I js dropped that plan and moved on to an easier one

white zodiac
dense wraith
#

plasma would be easy if you could still easily get away with chip jokers on higher stakes

slate lance
#

Can u not?

#

..

marsh goblet
#

what's the optimal copy here?

dense wraith
#

compared to mult

nova mantle
# slate lance Is plasma rlly that bad?

The score requirements pile quickly and youll find yourself with a 800k blind on ante 8, not to mention u have to pivot between scoring mainly chips to mainly mult, since otherwise you won't manage to meet such high scores

lucid plank
marsh goblet
white zodiac
# slate lance Can u not?

chip value requirements for plasma
(violet vessel requirements in parentheses)
1 hand: 1789 (3099)
3 hands: 1033 (1789)
4 hands: 895 (1550)

just fyi

slate lance
#

A stuntman would be peak too

nova mantle
#

Mult is too weak early and chips are too weak late so you have to juggle between these 2 to win and that's the complexity of plasma

slate lance
marsh goblet
white zodiac
shell dagger
#

chips jokers are rarer than mult jokers and you’ll only get there with planets if you find blue seals

big if

nova mantle
#

Personally I consider it harder than black since you can apply any and all normal strats you'd do on any other deck in black deck, while in plasma it's another kind of world on its own, but I haven't played black deck tbf, so I gotta do that before rating them properly

slate lance

also brosco

slate lance
#

Idk guys let me try plasma dwck goldstake first

#

Then I'll give my opinion

marsh goblet
#

anyways chat what's the optimal copy here

barren wigeon
#

idk its actual name i just know that's what doc calls it

dense wraith

tbh I only lose to the needle if my scoring sucks or is unreliable, which would be on me at that point

suck and bustin if youre a real one

I find it mad funny that if you're running obelisk the ox js doesn't do shit 😭

barren wigeon
white zodiac
#

or if I just have a hand agnostic build

#

which is usually a lot

barren wigeon
#

just bring a suit changer and make a flush whatever

slate lance
#

I usually try to get a pair build going

#

And just not be economy dependent

#

Or at least too much

nova mantle
#

"sets your money to 0 if you play a pair" ok blud?? I haven't played a pair since ante 3 😭 💔

dense wraith
#

I rarely use obelisk at all, I just know it won't be optimal if I find it too early

barren wigeon
#

itll just always be high card

it's lit chat

trying not to be economy dependent when half of the basics of the game are econ management is crazy

You obv wont care about economy bosses as bad later on too

most jokers require econ for them to serve a purpose

#

i only got this game today anyways

barren wigeon
#

baron only works if you have a bunch of kings

#

if you dont its just taking up a space that could be better used

atomic lagoon
#

i’ll get a bunch of kings because luck is on my side

barren wigeon
#

it just makes kings steel cards

dense wraith
barren wigeon
#

at that point just get steel cards

dense wraith
#

it's just awkward in general

#

best I can explain it

white zodiac
#

acquired the silly build

white zodiac

#

obelisk is pretty simple (I dont use it because im stupid)

#

just gotta find good flat mult, then play high card for the entirety of the early game

manic talon
#

obelisk gameplan is just
play pairs > stop playing pairs

i think i’ll be ok

#

we will see

YES

oh my goodness

it does

as a blind pick it generally has good merits

but yeah

rebate, trading card, yorick, purple seals, eye

vocal rose

but the upsides to burglar make up for it typically

Burglar on blue stake is great

if your green Joker is at like 30 then you can safely scale Yorick and ignore the descaling from discarding
