Good luck
do I take eternal idol lol
Im gonna eat dinner then finish my giga hiker run
I need a tinnny little bit of deck fixing
Free planet packs=free mult for red card
Obelisk sucks
KEEP GAMBLING
When you got it from rare tag you lost the run
Why he looks like some sort of
Bluesprint
negative 8 ball joker
Bleh
Every time I see negative I think it’s something decent maybe trousers or swashbuckler but no it’s 8 ball
camp
Chaos
Negatives are only good in tag deck
And with abstract joker
Since they buff it
Holy fuck, this single round took 30 minutes
but at least you never have to do it again
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

did you mod a browser into balatro?
That's just the normal picture in picture on mobile
I have YouTube open in the corner while in here
I love ghosts 👄
Ghost deck is pretty fun
Congrats Redshell good stuff
😭
what should I sell?
depends on how high your cat is
but prob sell cavendish
in 99% of scenarios
it's only 3x mult
Pain and suffering
whereas your photo is x16, bloodstone is over x64, and cat could scale to over x30
do i keep cavendish here
yes
omg everytime i do the hook blind it always decides to delete my steel cards instead of any of my other cards
pmo
if only i had sixth sense
Obelisk victory will only 8 hands max
i love forcing obelisk
idk if u remember the one i posted with like 4 flushes when i purchased it in ante 4
the first "run info"-type game
your luck is insane.
well "luck"
your build is just that good if ur winning on jokers alone
Oh boy the funny card game
Sell anything for the dice?
Yes
Is your deck and planets heart centered?
Yep
Id sell dusk pr the face card retrigger
Particularly heart face cards
Yeah, think I'll sell photo
now... this?
this is epic.
it's even funnier too because i saw this exact same thing earlier but when i was too broke and had to pay off credit card debt
Antimatter is cool
Even if you need to redeem Blank to get it
Sure hope those 20 Buckaroos pay off
how to be good at this game - help - lmao
i have had some luck sometimes, but 99% of my runs i dont even pass ante 6 XD
Did you skip the tutorial
i currently have a level 9 two pair with spare trousers which is usually bad but i have mime and a blue seal that shit be funneling me the chips i need to win
lol
I 🩷 yellow deck
Canio!!!!!
we love a good legendary joker run
Obelisk my beloved
temperance valye
Oh right
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
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
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
these negatives are doodoo 💔✌️
No surprise there
Yellow deck is technically a deck that does nothing
^radiohead
anaglyph falls into that category more often
I JUST BEAT JOKERLESS SECOND TRY??? what do you meaaaaaan
thats a lot of levels
oh telescope
blue seals are broken bro
I got it ante 8 lmaoooooo
oh lmao
Its like one punch man but in this case is one hand man
playing straights with this deck seems insane btw
well, I kinda new jokerless meta was either straights or 4oaks
and it somehow managed to work
all of my value generation was in the ace-10 straights territory anyway
aside from blue seal steel 8s
Finally c++
GG!
Perkeo was the last joker to gold sticker and it had to be a photochad run
the epitome of balatro
Didn’t screenshot the seed but had bp, bs, dusk photo and perkeo by the end
Then there’s this run I did a long time ago
sigma
i usually play towards 4 of a kind
in jokerless
Stone cards just doesn't do enough
They're worse than Jokerless by a mile
You can actually do an all stone card deck
They're completely immune to all but one debuff bossblind
It's white stake being white stake, I was surprised too
so true
it's a breeze after gold stakes
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
Golden Needle's only hard hurdle was the first 2 antes
That's Golden Needle
Only one hand
I watch jokerless multiplayer from time to time and yeah
it seems fun
looks inside
Blue Seals just trivialized the challenge lmao
Blue Seals are so powerful
It's tied with the best seals with purple
Purple and Blue are the best seals in the game
ok, surely i beat cruelty first try too (clueless)
damn
Holy shit
Several hours in the next 2 profiles
A L E E B
Btw, that seed shows a Feckin trading card alongside Canio
So it literally gives you a way to make Canio stronger
What is this luck?
Around ante 7, there's a Polychrome Jack in one of the standard packs, turn it into a King
Luck
Looks inside
ALEEB
The chances of this happening are crazy
You can reverse engineer seeds to find the best one
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
Frfr
I wonder what is the most played seed is unseeded
If any seed got replayed at all
Unlikely that we know
How many seeds are there anyway?
an uncomprehensible amount
150 quintillion
I did not, in fact, beat cruelty first try
Few billion, someone has the exact number actually
I am SO far off
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
Is this unseeded? Your reaction makes me believe its unseeded. But I wanna guess this is aleeb
It's ALEEB.
the chances of this happening is crazy
Looks inside
ALEEB
I wonder if aleeb or 52 spade 10s on erratic is replayed more tbh
Definitely aleeb
I think roffle would've made aleeb more popular
He's the reason I played it
Yeah I dont play seeded much now
But I was new so
maybe i I should try some seeds
We have changed
I stopped going after seeds
Gold Stake's basically my default now lmao
Whatever stake I have unlocked for that deck is my default 🥲
You'll get there
I only have gold stake on one deck completed
If you wanna get good, the best way to learn is by experience
And not watching roffle
Unironically, he's the reason why I got motivated to do Gold Stake runs
Fair enough
It’s aleeb but unseeded
I learned from him a bit but most of my knowledge came from Doc
Wait why is that unironic
What like you naturally got aleeb?
Because people joke about him being "bad" at the game
Or his fans being bad at the game
combination of doc's lessons and roffle's vibe plays is the best
I don't buy that
Yep
Hey, could you pause and take a screenshot
... still no update :C
How to yo gold stake: get half a build made... Then get photochad to carry you the rest of the way
this will not stop me failing miserably, but still

We aren't getting an update for awhile 
I didn't know that
The madlad also just did a C++ playthrough on his own profile
Thats mad crazy
So he completed his own game and that actually helped him with how he wanna balance the game
?
ohh right
yea i heard
What is it with small amounts of people making insanely good indie games
Because Indie is king
I feel like the game has enough self imposed challenges and so many mods that i can keep myself entertained before the update
Silksong, Balatro, Ultrakill, Megabonk
(IMO)
All these were made with people who actually LOVES videogames
celeste as well
Focused and aligned vision for the end product. And no meddling shareholders
Me when I skip and I get lusty rental negative
Imo the best games get made when they are made by primarily one person
There are other factors to be considered
ahem yandere sim ahem
There's Triple A studio games that are just as good as most Indie games
True
Battlefield 6, Baldur's Gate 3, Expedition 33, Doom
Only a few examples
Dredge?
But it could have also been a negative to the moon, rocket, rebate, or blueprint 
That too
A true gambler's mindset, I like it but that'll kill a Good Stake run
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
finally
cries in console player
a good stake
Man I love dredge
thats a great hypothesis
Bad indie games are really bad but the other side of that coin is when an Indie game is good? It's REALLY fucking good
Rip
Had the easiest build for xmult and still died
Like...
plasma deck
How???
Oh well that's just a rip
discarded from 4 of kinds to feed yorick
Expedition 33, Baldur's Gate 3 and Battlefield 6 devs KNOWS their audience and they focus more on the players, rather than shareholders
How did you not find chip jokers
Those are exceptions for triple A studios
5AAARIJE
Yeah that's a skill issue ngl
imagine not needing to maximize income and minimize production costs simultaneously
Yorick is already a pretty fucking strong joker
You don't have to greed for it
It only requires you to PLAY the game
This is an additional point to my point before. And most being indie games being bad is fine because they are made (mostly) because the creator wants to make them, not because they seek commercial success
All the legendaries are pretty strong... Except canio on abandoned
Not speaking for everyone ofc
Make no mistake, Canio is still strong on Abandoned
I mean if you try hard enough he works there too😭
Abandoned doesn't say you are not allowed to have face cards
One ENTIRE xmult is alot.
You dont start with face cards
But you can pull face cards from standard pack
I've done several Photochad runs on fuckin abandoned
I mean yes, but it's a much bigger pain.
Oh i meant to reply to ryoku, i agree with your point
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
Yorick when you've already taken an eternal burglar
Its because they are unconditional for boss blinds right? Trib can get shafted my mark or plant. And perkeo requires to good econ to pull the tarots you wanna copy
Free 10 dollar Temp value
Trib is possibly the worst of the bunch
For ante 8 runs?
Yeah
It has the same problem with Idol and Baron, they require alot of effort and have too many risk
✋😭✋
Trib is still very powerful if you have some levels in a high hand
I mean, perkeo also doesnt help immediately
It's best played with a five card hand though
Nothing comes close to the chigoat tho
Chicot is beaten down alot but I honestly think it's top 3 best lmfao
You usually only need 3 scoring jokers at least
I said a high hand, as in a high value hand, not a high card hand.
The other two slots reserved for stuff like econ
But having Chicot means you never have to worry about boss blinds anymore
Yall fw cloud nine?
It makes Trib a safe pick if you HAPPEN to find it alongside chicot
Good potential value
I like it
You can as much 9's as you want
That's alot of money
Well, you didn't word it correctly
using death on nines is really good simply because cloud nine exists
Chicot also gives permanent hand size if his effect activates multiple times on the manacle
More like you just misunderstood
it's rocket but it starts at four dollars
We need actual 9's synergy so Cloud 9 becomes more appreciated
Had a run recently where i tried to deckfix towards a nine of hearts idol and i was getting 34 dollars from c9
I still think Rocket is better though
worst case scenario it's four dollars, so as good as golden joker, which is a good joker
But I suppose cloud 9 rewards you for helping it
best case scenario it's an investment tag (if not multiple) every round
Rebate is just too good
not counting blueprint
Even without copy jokers, 20 potential dollars for ONE SINGULAR DISCARD
That's pretty strong
and imagine when blue stake won't be -1 discard anymore
If Thunk hears the people's complaints about it being too strong then he might also change Rebate
rebate could be four dollars
i think that's a worthwhile trade
one more discard, one less dollar
It'll still be pretty goddamn strong
Blue stake really is the hardest spike in difficulty since it makes everything less reliable
It's Purple but sure
Truth nuke
3 dollar
3 dollars feels like its not enough
3 dollar rebate is still good
Purple Stake is the biggest jump in difficulty for high stakes runs, Blue Stake is just oppressive as fuck
Finding scoring is fine if you have the discards to dig for your blue seals, steel and glass
blue stakes makes the meta 95% pair 5% everything else
not great game design
imho
I mean purple comes a close second ig, but 2 discards is agonizing. You are probably right tho, purple scaling does become brutal come ante 8
I M O
purple scaling is not that bad if you have 3 discards
Blue being oppressive isn't from difficulty imo, it's just plain annoying
purple scaling feels like the correct scaling
Purple just bumps up the numbers pretty fuckin high
Right, ill play on green stake scaling and get confused why a2sb is 900😭
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.
1.2mil violet vessel chips requirement for ante 8 is gonna make you shit your pants if you're just starting
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
It's harder than it sounds, it's the first taste of what Gold Stake is truly like, Blue Stake is still low enough for the requirement that you can adapt to the discard change
Purple QUADRUPLES the requirements on top of adding Blue Stake's effect
That shit is brutal, and an insane jump
quadruples compared to white
Green doubles, so purple effectively quadruples it
well we're talking about blue stake so i thought we were comparing it with the stake prior to blue stake
Sure
labubu in the chat
two things
- 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
- 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
I'd say for raw difficulty, Purple is the steepest jump
this was a run where he was trying to get the largest mult on dagger
that's why the egg and three gifts
What seems to be the problem?
he wants dagger mult
His only goal is to get dagger as high as possible
not effective mult
Purple stake scaling really makes you appreciate steel cards and such
BP isn't necessary for it
It's still not as big of a jump in difficulty. It's extremely easy to get more score, it's a lot harder to adapt to overcome a reduction in reliability. If you're already good at blue stake purple is only slightly harder.
not sure about the hanging kings, whats the deck look otherwise? + face cards are countered by boss blinds
That is Doc's video.
he didn't make much changes to deck other than adding some blue and purple seals from standard packs from what I remember
prolly just hanging faces for boss blinds then
in the end doesnt matter which ones you hang as long as they are not enhanced/sealed
I just thought it would be better to keep the bp and dagger it later to be able to score in antes
he wants dagger mult though
well you dont need more score
not scoring
Has LT said what he's replacing Blue Stakes's effect with?
if he doesn't eat then it is like 4 mult wasted
hmm okay
you just need 75k total
either boss evasion or just for the funi
doc often does things that are most funi when it doesnt matter, like daggering legendaries
midas mask even in gold stake
I was gonna get midas cuz I'm greedy
99.9% of the time
niceee
Step 1: Get Canio
Step 2: kill all your face cards
Step 3: Dagger Canio
Step 4: Saved by Mr Bones

this cant be the play, its too early... right?
Do it.
Early and safe enough imo
you can play 4 flushes per round
It's ante 1
what's the harm
too early for triboulet smh
You can go and aim for +mults for safety
Dice next shop thrust
Why we doing that to dice?
never had bloodstone this early in my 800 hours of balala
Don't get used to it
Trust* 😭
whyy would dice matter for triboulet
and most of em are on checkered
Inb4 ante 7 head
lmao
😭
what you didn't take the triboulet
The rental is sketchy but hey, you got the combo.
😔
I had an idea
I'm trying ALEEB on Gold stake
Just out of curiosity
I know it'll be easy because it's ALEEB but I'm still curious
just need the lucky to hit 20 dollars and im good
dammit why is it rental eternal
you know what, fuck it why not
Truly a gold stake moment of all time
Oh my fucking god
Unpopular opinion but painted deck is my favorite deck
I'm going to morb
it's mine too
money hit EZ
Oh hell ye
luckies fix your econ
Why not build towards all 3 of em
i still die to head but we worry about that later
I remember I lost from the head I had trib and yorick on the same run
It was a horrible feeling
You find 3 copies of tribe dw

i just realized tribe is such a dogshit fucking joker to dupe
Ah yes, just get the nat negative pareidolia 5head
Holy shit
Yeah!
Lol
Well following your logic then I'd say Yorick and Burglar
Huh?
What's the burglar?
LETSGOOO
Ya mean the bungler?
Photochaaaaaad
no, burger
It's funny how photo chad is at the top of a lot of people's stats, including mine
most of the time
I mean guarantee is a strong word
And even if there are some stoppers like the plant it still has very few true full blockers
I should see What's mine later
im not making the same mistake again im buying your ass
Thank you
Most of the time if you see a photochad, you know it's a win
the head is just not real folks
Photo Chad Ancient with a poly wild jack was my last gold stake win
Madness would go wild here
If my chad was eternal sure
madness is for sure worth 18x 
Just reroll
But i had to sell my pareidolia cause of leaf so I had to strength one of my poly 10s to win

There should be a joker like pareidolia but all cards are considered number cards
that
would be useless
except for rtb
That's just playing on abandoned

that would literally only syngerize with bus
I LOVE BLOODSTONE GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
most free win seed of all time
Lmao gz
That's the point!
why would i reroll
Bloodstone checkered deck is already nutty but ante 1 bloodstone and oops is absolutely insane
I dunno I think it's on the level of 8 ball
Because the plant is stinky
what would that syngerize with
please, enlighten me
Also Canio is the worst, Yorick is my boi
opposite
Sock n buskin
not quite
When you have a baseball build you don't care if your cards are debuff
none of the numbered card jokers cares about being numbered cards, they care about the ranks specifically
so literally only RTB
exactly
Hmm
pick the good part first
Chad
Skip for red card value
Is the red card in the room with us?
Yes
Yea chads more versatile
Just funny cuz today is just photochad day for me
photochad on painted is certainly a choice
Maybe I'm blind
is certainly THE choice
straight photochad is like, okay
is gay photochad better?
honestly dont even need both parts if youre going straight
Just make glass cards with chad and you have photograph 🥱
Photo chad is only a few thousand if you don't have some other way to increase your score
planet cards
Yes, that would be something else that increases score
ride the bus, supernova, and green joker is only +1 mult if you dont play hands
Close tho
straights are fun
supernova on top
I had a negative giftcard yesterday, my temperance value was insane
makes it hard to not make straights
it rarely does anything to begin with
wtf
it literally did nothing
they didnt shuffle
maybe it swapped my 2 runners ill never know
most effective amber acorn:
i pray for amber acorn and get vv
I like cheesing Amber Acorn by grabbing and dragging my most important joker right after selecting the blind. That way i know where it is
of course if it's not rental or perishable I can't afford it
at least there was a stickerless card sharp in buffoon pack
buffoon pack and pray for a credit card
Thanks @
is brainstorm even worth getting with the legendary credit caed in buffoon pack
like to me it feels like a good way to die by not having any money
usually you just can't get it, but the credit card could have eternal or rental (or both)
Plasma 4 streak + 4 stickers
GG
why is dagger here
Sticker
ah
two of my favourite spectral yet I feel like it's better to pick neither
it's lower stake on blue so I can afford to make mistakes
Yeah this is sadly a skip
I was just tryna reach gold starting with blue instead of going up stakes in black
thought it'd be better to do that
💔
2 rebates trust
why is this always campfire
Update on this run:
Cat growing sim
uh I think I just go next here no buffoon pack
How I don’t know
my run is too good, my steak too juicy
i bought balatro today it’s very addictive icl
Painted deck has -1 slot
Run gives photochad, bp, bs, s&b, like da hek
earlier i was right off the mark with like 1 hand left and no poker hands or nth so i jus had to pick the highest card and pray
shitty joker order ik 😭
rip
scary face and the joker that registers all ur playing cards as face cards is lowk a cracked combo ive come to realise
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
That’s a pretty normal amount for an unfixed deck
buhlatro
Bruhlatro
could've just not discarded optimally
also 1000 points without any flat mult is kinda hard anyway
I mean yeah
I was gonna say why did u even have half joker specially with trousers then checked the ante
also hello
how many jokers are there
wasn't it 180 or something
sounds about right thank you
be broke
chat am I cooked
photochad 🔥
guess that rental crafty joker is all I got then
at least it ain't rental
fuck wait eternal
it's not eternal
Peep my doggy
Score with it and sell it before blind ends so you don't gotta pay for it 
They look like they don't got no thoughts happening in their head
I'm dead anyway
Nice dog tho ✅
you're correct
my dog plays balatro that's why
Guess they also don't know how to read then 
on the pfp? That is not a dog
tell that to puppygirls
it's just some monster
Wym I let my dog grind gold stake when I'm tired of playing
Ok fair
I am a puppygirl but Non human dogs cant!!
I didn't draw it
He already got gold stake on plasma
My dog could play better balatro than some people here
How many has he donr then
Atleast constellation is up there
my dog has c++
Are you perhaps the dog in the picture
I didn't even see the picture
i’m so set
They def would be a photochad warrior don't lie twin
No mime? /j
Aw hell nah not my son
idk what that is i got this game 5 hours ago 😭
Oh damn
What is it with new players always getting baron
smaller joker pool
i’m guessing
im so close to getting idol online and i wanna sell cat for dusk but if idol misses before i get every card to a diamond king im just dead
Its still insane rng that its always new players getting baron runs
baron is so cracked bro
Why the hell would you sell cat for dusk
along with card sharp and photograph
I actually feel ragebaited that you're considering that
fibonacci is dope too
I love Fibonacci
jojo reference
Plasma and painted
The world tarot card 🗣️🔥
Hes js goated like that 
perfect square joker timing from a judgement
wish there was a way to customise my tarot cards on ps and add the respective stands to it
that would be a cool dlc
Why is that perfect timing??
Yes your son sadly 💔
They told me then don't like red card or obelisk
Thats more like a mod than anything official
yeah
sarcasm, square is unable to scale at all this round
Oh I didn't even see the boss
I thought you were holding like a 4oak
Yay js play 4 cards now
Duh
no?? scaling jokers can't scale in non scoring hands??
For someone who uses sarcasm its ironic you couldn't tell their sarcasm
but that looked like they didn't know how it worked mechanically more than anything
Dude cmon
feels more a troll anyway
Yeah it was sarcasm 😭🙏
praying i don’t get needle before i can get the boss skip voucher
with this setup if i get needle it’s over
cus i gotta get at least one pair before i can get my second pair
Pair build 
Card sharp?
Lost like 3 runs recently coz of the same thing 💔
Amazing
i’ll sell abstract joker for bb card
idol.
You're playing diamonds tho?? 😭
Be careful if that's your only source of mult tho
what does my suit have to do with idol
any suit works for idol
nah i’ve got fibonacci
are you thinking of bloodstone?
anyways i found a baron but my level 5 high card will not score enough lol
i’m so set
Plasmas easy but I'll give it to u painted was a PAINT in my ass
Painted was weirdly easy for me tbh
Wtff
I hated it more than black
Nebula tho 😭
I do love the +2 hand size of painted deck
Nevula was shit for me too but it got better ovwr time when i realised more and more how good planet cards rlly are
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
I have barely touched nebula it sounds so boring 😭
It is NOT worth the -1 joker slot
painted is in the bottom half of decks for consistency but it's nowhere near black
the hand size is nice
Itd be funner if it was like idk -1 hand size or smt, rather than -1 consumable slot
I've gotten good runs with nebula but I always lose by a stupid amount, things like 5k points in a 200k blind
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
Me too
Rn im doing magic deck
Ive done the worst 3 decks already
Black painted and nebula
come on painted cant be that bad
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
IT IS
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
especially with much better straight consistency
It is bruh 😭
I love crystal ball
Ehhh, tbf I haven't done black yet
telescope is kinda awkward in the early game anyway
I did it just to get it out the way, better to get the shit ones out first imo
Once I finish nebula I'll only be missing all the colored decks for c+
Ive only done 4 🥲
Lmao, I did the same but with plasma
I remember it was abandoned then plasma coz I heard wicked things about the latter
Altho i am orange stake on magic rn
Is plasma rlly that bad?
I feel like itd be easy
name this build
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
it's the second worst deck purely from a consistency standpoint
plasma would be easy if you could still easily get away with chip jokers on higher stakes
what's the optimal copy here?
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
I know this was white stake but this hiker build could clear gold stake
yeah plasma is super hard to gold stake
chip value requirements for plasma
(violet vessel requirements in parentheses)
1 hand: 1789 (3099)
3 hands: 1033 (1789)
4 hands: 895 (1550)
just fyi
Idk dawg, runners pretty good, castle is nice
A stuntman would be peak too
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
Planets and chip jokers can easily get u up there
i love chip jokers that can be retriggered, really fun way to win plasma runs lol
and then you have to deal with planet killing boss blinds
chips jokers are rarer than mult jokers and you’ll only get there with planets if you find blue seals
Theres only 2 tbf
eye/flint/wall/arm/needle
are you sure
Well having it scale on retriggers too makes it extra nutty
oh that's what i meant lol
The eye and needle are eaisly counterwd if u are able to one shot
big if
the if statement
big if
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
I guess so
also brosco
anyways chat what's the optimal copy here
idk its actual name i just know that's what doc calls it
tbh I only lose to the needle if my scoring sucks or is unreliable, which would be on me at that point
when you're given time to try to get a win streak on it, the outcomes you want to happen don't happen
its optimal rn
as often
ah ty
i got a 4 just there
and it isn’t over yet
what's the boss that makes you broke
and not a lot of ppl do c++ on plasma
nice
If you can one shot a blind on plasma you got a 1 in a million build right there 😭
I forgot the name
Tooth
I might go back
no other one
The tooth
YEAH THAT ONE
✅
the ante 6 exclusive
bye bye rebate
Was it hard I've yet to do this one
It'll probably be the first one I do out of the colored ones
we all love socky busky
And works half the time
Its definitely hard
The -1 hand makes economy worse, u also can scale less as u have less hands to scale with, and ofc u have less hands to score with
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 😭
or if youre running a build that isnt hand dependant
just bring a suit changer and make a flush whatever
I usually try to get a pair build going
And just not be economy dependent
Or at least too much
"sets your money to 0 if you play a pair" ok blud?? I haven't played a pair since ante 3 😭 💔
I rarely use obelisk at all, I just know it won't be optimal if I find it too early
or if you have any of the big 3 scaling mult jokers
itll just always be high card
Dawg it is optimal if u find it early tho? U can work around it to raise a single type of hand as quickly as possible
2oak*
it's lit chat
Rtb, grimbo and red card id guess 
trying not to be economy dependent when half of the basics of the game are econ management is crazy
not red card....
?
even though it probably could be included
What then I forgor
common hand mult scalers
supernova of course
I mean its good to not need econ to win lol, if youve got good enouh cards going
Yeah what it's the most is econ out of all of this 💔
that requires econ
it’s sooo over bro
Early on yeah
throughout the run
You obv wont care about economy bosses as bad later on too
why do you have baron
cus it’s goated
most jokers require econ for them to serve a purpose
said nobody ever
it’s been working well for me and getting crazy multipliers
i only got this game today anyways
baron only works if you have a bunch of kings
if you dont its just taking up a space that could be better used
i’ll get a bunch of kings because luck is on my side
it just makes kings steel cards
You can't do this forever depending on the distribution of your played hands, It can only scale so much until every hand you could possibly do reaches the most played hand, even then the build may not be optimized for multiple hand types
at that point just get steel cards
acquired the silly build
it rewards you for what you should be doing already with agnostic scoring sources
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
obelisk gameplan is just
play pairs > stop playing pairs
rare breed of someone pair maxing and running baron in their runs
i’ve jus been going wit the flow bro im ngl
Is Half Joker a Jimbo
6
9
3
Option 3
this game fun ash ive only had it 6 hours but i can see myself having at least 100 on here
ancient joker is peak and flushes are peak and ill never say otherwise
Ohh supernova then 
Honestly I don't like supernova that much I don't want to rely in 1 specific hand in case the eye the ox hit
nice
supernova is definitely the worst of the 4
4?
it's the worst of the three hand mult scalers
ohhh rtb green and supernova right
the ox isn't that common though, only appears a minimum of ante 6
until you run into this situation
but you won
black deck moment
Yeah but when it does hit it leaves you in shambles 💔
per usual
aj is also a straight joker
yeah
sometimes you just have to take it
ignore me
I missed my
ok
I lost once cuz that shi regressed my bull to 0 and I didn't had any other means of getting chips
too bad I couldn't run it in this seed 💔
Best would be rtb personally, cuz not being able to discard feels ass unless I'm running burglar
you can discard after a couple of antes for grimbo but yeah rtb
even if midas is incredible
bus is complete peak
oh yeah if you have bull then your fucked if you also rely on supernova
missing out on it isn't the end of the world
And the condition is so easy too it's just an attention span test
my first gold stake win was a double polychrome bus
Also lots of synergies, I love me an rtb +faceless joker ❤️🩹
what's the collective opinion on burglar
Didnt know it had a higher cost
6 bucks
it's good
Good with lots of builds and it's also indirectly an econ joker
good, could be questionable as an eternal depending on deck/run
This games tarot cards are my favourite thing tbh
nice
burglar invalidates a lot of stuff though
it does
as a blind pick it generally has good merits
but yeah
rebate, trading card, yorick, purple seals, eye
but the upsides to burglar make up for it typically
Burglar on blue stake is great
Good joker not always a take but its good when its good, no other joker does what it does, also for some reason is blueprint/brainstorm compatible
the humble burglar on my yorick burnt joker rebate with purple seal run:
Why would you ever keep yorick
i refuse to get ragebaited today 💔
incest game pfp
Burger when marry andy
not going into that discussion rn 😭
look i just think she's hot don't cancel me
I like yorick but it can be one of the more intrusive legendaries with what build your going
Imagine if merry andy is coded like burglar
Girl there are better women out there
Like me fr
do yourself a favor and look up a midsummer night's dream

Balatro
Wtf is a balatro
it's the one that scales at a rate of 1.3x per ante from nothing
WTF IS A KILOMETER 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
first ever win
that's awesome
it's by far the least intrusive scoring legendary
what if you had green joker or burglar
i felt lucky asf setting all that up
hell yeah, new record
W
insanely large number
if your green Joker is at like 30 then you can safely scale Yorick and ignore the descaling from discarding
