I hate taking a shot in the dark when everything is closed off
holding r
50/50s are annoying on expert
speaking of gambling i once used the wheel like 20 times and didn't get a single hit
Tho I'm curious now what is one version that has a prevention to this
I wanna play minesweeper now that I remember it 
doesn't campfire teeechnically have the highest xmult scaling potential?
Happens 💔
if you're rich it goes wacky crazy
i think both bombe and 14 minesweeper variants do
14 minesweeper variants obviously also has variants
bombe is about making a list of rules that solve minesweeper puzzles
iirc 14 variants has a steam demo

i miss the way the mouse turned black when being clicked
Nice I gotta go try it
i saw someone get up to like x60 once so i believe that
The best negative in the game
If you had like 1000 in a given shop then yah you could get it fairly high
i mean technically there's no cap, you can theoretically just keep rolling, buying cards and selling them
Trouby got that shit on like the riddler
looks very nice
i feel like that applies with most if not all scaling xmults
But it would take a monstrous amount of money to beat levels of scaling like lucky cat world records or things like that
Ong
Iirc the lucky cat wr is about x1100 or some shi like that
tarot loop makes it arbitrary right
the ultimate strat for nonendless campfire WR is getting crimson heart, heiroglyphing, win the round with campfire debuffed so it doesnt reset, and then do the same thing on the next ante with petroglyph and retcon back to crimson heart
3 antes of campfire scaling
i mean ig it gives you infinite money but u can also just sell the tarots too
O yeah I forgot about that lol
Canio has the highest cap due to double-floating point prescision
Someone gotta try naneinf with this one 
Click simulator
I full skip with heiro and htr
does it? i dont see any way to arbitrarily scale it
we're gonna make it to nationals
They mean it in the way the game is coded, not like the chances it has to scale in game
like i dont see how the float limit could theoretically come into play w canio as ud run out of cards to destroy
Rerolls are infinite because they stop incrementing before temperance stops incrementing money
if you can do rerolling forever with campfire in this hypothetical you could just have magic trick
But if you theoretically had an infinite amount of cards and hanged man's canio is the one that has the highest value cap
So you reroll for 2^54 negative blueprints to copy perkeo for hanged man
im employed what does that mean
Tho I agree with this 🤓
i mean i guess if you reroll with showman for negative blueprint and use it on canio you can get as many cryptids as u need
Guys all rare
This is something employed people know 😭 ts is coding knowledge
Clearly not as a computer scientist
although at that point i would be worried about "how many jokers can the game actually handle" like if we count the float limit as relevant then if theres, say, an array size limit that would also come into play
bro asked me what my plans were for this holiday season, idiot didnt expect me to reply that im employed 




Looking for a bit of help beating black stake with blue deck. I’m really struggling and idk what I should do.
No shot
oh i thought thought that was a probability thing not a coding thing LMAOOO
you are probably not taking eternals as much as you should
if black stake is specifically a sticking pt
though i suspect that in general you're probably doing other things suboptimally
oh damn I misread that entirely as black deck blue stake
First a negative troub in a pack now a natural negative mine
Glad I didn't respond and make a fool of myself 🙂
thats actually so goated wtf
I finna read the same thing but I noticed before clicking the send button 
i almost did this
Perhaps a lucky cat could occupy that free slot 
tb to when i found a nat neg blueprint and i was one (1) dollar short from buying it with nothing to sell 💔
I just got another funny idea for kaizo balatro
ectoplasm can land on a negative joker, reversing and removing the edition
i think bro likes lucky cat
does it at least not take away hs
Guys how do I play obelisk
NEVER take negative skip
Am I really that obvious
always
matter of fact.... temperance and swashbuckler value!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so would that mean that you permanently get an extra slot or
how would that work
This but it can also happen with WoF 💔
altho actually idt that matters very much since ecto is kind of weak especially when used multiple times and how often do you get a nat negative thats relevant enough u wouldnt just sell it before ecto
you build a stack of 12-16 of a specific hand type, usually pairs, and then play any hands except the stack
i support this it would be funny
Nvm I forgot they get to keep their value
yeah

a whole 2 clams!!!!!!
it would remove the edition
screw you unholographs your joker
i could buy like 2 gummy bears with that
More stickers
or maybe half a twizzler
you could buy a now and later but without the later
so just the now
so if you were at 6/6 it would become 6/5 and you wouldnt be able to buy negatives or use ectoplasm until you sell/ecto a joker and make it 5/5 or 6/6
No but he means if that negative joker exceeded the joker limit now that it's normal
what does this mean
Mime baron my goat
i mean i think kaizo should be more focused on making strong things weaker/drawbackful rather than nerfing two already mediocre effects
you get 1/2 of a now and later
I would vouch to destroy that joker in case this happens 
idk where that sentiment comes from
Mf unpolyed my Jimbo wth 😭
LMAOOO
How do you suggest I improve?
kaizo to me is unforgiving level/game design removed from the game's generally accessible gameplay
I feel like it's more about unfair stuff than anything
I wanna be the guy type shit yk
how/when in runs do you typically lose?
are you keeping money >25 for interest for most of the game?
whats now and later
Pure cruelty with a bit of trolling 
a candy that you can split in half to save one half of it for later
i mean yeah ig my comment isnt really abt kaizo as much as like
a general design thing that i think a kaizo mod should also stick to arguably
tho if ur leaning into trolling
then it makes sense
tell me about it we have a candy bar called a whachamacallit
no fucking way
im not bullshitting you look it up
I hate Photograph
"Americans" itself is kinda silly like they occupy the whole America's 😭
Can you say your opinion about bloodstone 
we don't have hershey's here either
@abstract meadow pinging bc i set to off by accident and chat moves fast
is hersheys good?
where is here
I Hate It
classified
it's the vanilla ice cream of chocolate bars it tastes generic as generic can be
do you have uhhh cadbury
yeah but it's rare
i do not think this is true
its pretty infamously different in character from a lot of other chocolates worldwide
I typically lose around ante 5 just straight up not having good enough scores
I do try to
yeah there's mostly hersheys in the states
isn't cadbury a british thing
idk
cadbury makes me shudder
im in the eu though
scaling jokers are good
like green joker, rtb are both extremely solid and worth playing extra hands that score badly just so they scale
finally just got gold stake on erratic deck, that took so many attempts just due to the super random nature
mmmmmmconstellation
i mean from a player perspective you dont know what it would've been anyways, so it really just rerolls the dupes
concept for a kaizo version of balatro
mark? face cards face down? or do you mean house
either way you can just discard
yeah i feel like i just don't get anything good in the shop most times
yeah i meant the house
i can never remember what boss does what just by the name lmao
yeah this is the lame version though
like if its not retroactively changing the consumable i used 3 antes ago is it really fufilling its promise
a mark is the term for a hitman's target, aka a headhunter
erm... what's a kaizo qwp
freakishly hard version of a game
most other scalers are also fine
ohh i heard about kaizo nuzlockes before
for pokemon games
I imagine matador giving immunity to a lot of these conditions, ironically making it much better
econ jokers are also almost all strong and gold cards are also extremely good
the concept for the food jokers is actually funny as hell
imagine forgetting about the popcorn and next thing you know it yields like -36 mult
am I just bad cause ive been trying to beat gold stake magic deck for 2 weeks
the hell should i sell?
unfortunately that cannot be called good
if you're going for a photchad/bluestorm then nothing
alright
blue seals are also a strong scaling method
you'd be getting the exact same value if not worse
so far im getting up to e11
consider why sock isnt better than any of the jokers you currently have
it is 1 extra trigger for the photos, which is less than chad's 2
AND OF ALL THINGS OFCOURSE ITS THE GOAD!
i mean you can see the boss blind in advance
(basically)
why is plant the only emoji
the plant is unfair, you cant tell me otherwhise
gotta get more bb emojis
overall its hard to say exactly without knowing how you rank joker strength but it sounds likely you're probably misevaluating them if you consistently feel like you get weak stuff
okay!
ok
OH MY GOODNESS IT IS
WHAT THE FUCK
copying my flow
just straight up not paying any attention
it's mostly a nothing boss blind thankfully
classic blunder
i didn't see your message before hitting send lmao
welp... i always forget to check bossblinds
should be the first thing you think when entering an ante's first shop
yeah yeah ok buddy. im the big fish in this tank
before even looking at whats in the shop
yeah this run is now dead
lesson of the day read the boss blind before running the small blind
if ur in pc theres a mod that displays boss blinds on the cash out screen of the previous boss
super helpful
it would kinda be nice to have a mod that always displays the boss blind
whats it called?
that sounds like a huge crutch tbh
just to save clicking to read it
having eyes
i mean
u can click thru the menu to see this normally?
if you cant pay enough attention to check boss blind how are you gonna play carefully and win consistently
it teaches bad habit
that sounds unnecessary icl
i was checking boss blind before getting the mod
now i can check it 10 seconds faster
thats exactly why you dont need it
I have learned not to try and play on my streak profile when I’m tired or hungry bc dying to focus issue blows
yea but to download a mod bc you'reforgetting to check boss is crutch
wrong reply
yeah its fine i did that two seconds ago lmao
i don't need it for sure but it is convenient
wish you could change what youre replying to through edits
lmfao
and imo would be an improvement if it was added as an option to base game
the evil hacker known as lm fao
if not just always there
nah
no come on im trying to keep suspicion low now
the game seriously needs a previously beaten boss blinds page tho
just hit the cash out button it's not that hard to take 2 seconds to check it after the previous boss???
deadass
noooOOOOO-
doesnt matter how careful I play if i cant rember the last session
he's a chinese hacker.. lumm faaoouuu
i want to see it before i shop so i gotta go into run info
it's just a qol, why does it matter
its like 3 button presses to bring it up and dismiss it
getting it on the previous boss cashout screen is extra information being given that you wouldnt be able to have in vanilla, yea
not valid imo
not a huge deal but being able to just
not have to do that is smooth
DUDE
there are still significant gameplay decisions on the cashout screen
oh no a whopping 3 presses how devastating
who else gonna get the smexy jimbo calendar
worth every penny
where i get this
A new year is coming... time to shuffle off and try again! Features 13 photos of Jimbo, as portrayed by Ben Starr, in the guise of your favorite Balatro Jokers Bonus condensed 2027 calendar on the final spread Joker cards appear throughout the calendar to mark some of 2026's Balatro-relevant international holidays, fr
i cannot think of anything
like you can sell things and use a handful of tarots
20 bucks seems decent
cool that its like
real life images
hired some guy to wear silly clown costumes
sweet
like im using hermit before the shop opens no matter what boss is selected
using tarots/consumables before going to next shop to have the same consumable pop up again
woat joker
flower pot too
balatro-relevant international holidays
my favorite holiday international photochad day
I'm trying to think of a scenario where knowing the boss blind would change your decision and it's kind of difficult but I swear they exist
does it really say that 😭
yes look at the description
LMAO what is this deck
thats not some guy thats BEN STARR
Two color deck
a fun one
man flip photochad day im looking forward to WORLD EGG DAY
in those cases you'd just use it regardless of boss blind tho
idk who that is.. 💔
this is the mf title screen what
yeah it displays locked things
WAIT
placing gold/steel on suit blinds already discovered
HE'S
you gotta discover 25 blinds to get the A
holy crap
yeah, but you can't really do anything useful with that information on the cashout screen
ben starr is goated i have to get this calendar
blue seals, vagabond, 8 ball
he voiced arthur in warframe
maybe like you would sell suit tarots if it wasn't a suit boss coming up
That seems valid enough
except you wouldn't
gah maybe it doesn't matter
What difference does it make if its on the cash out screen
? im not sure
well idk what the original question was
what u mean
god bless balala
lol
is there any situation where getting to know what the next ante's boss blind is on the previous boss blinds cashout screen is an advantage
someone mentioned a mod where you could see the next boss blind on the cashout screen, which is absolutely stupid and unnecessary
ill cry if i win my first gold stake with 8 ball
also... i swear you can see this information anyways?
No
no, you have to enter the next round
im not at my computer to check rn tho
overhated joker its so good
no way you actually bought it i thought you were joking LMAO
I mean just getting no isn't very satisfactory, brainstorming and trying to figure out one is the real goal
bro its ante 2 small blind 😭
i agree
wrong one
jesus christ
got my job back recently so i can spend money on stupid shit again
never even used a calendar in my life lololo
i disagree
i dont think there is since you cant spend cash until after the cashout anyways
yeah i was just joking. probably maybe THE worst joker maybe i think
i would be interested if one exists
but also it is clearly so niche that for me the convienience outweighs whatever value i assign to the purity of the design
im doing ok with it
how do i not fuck this up?
it hits once in a millenia but its fine
using a tarot before the first shop also doesnt matter since the ones that matter dont change in value 2 seconds later
oh let me roll a dice that's the same probably as WoF so i have a chance to MAYBE getting the tarot that i want
trying to figure out a situation where you would normally sell a consumable but not if there was a certain blind
the urge to continue this run just to fullskip because i have seltzer
just play 1 hand cards, looking for steels, on last hand play ur high card
like if it makes the game barely easier once every 100000 runs i do not care
by that i mean play golds keeping steels in hand
whats the proper joker btw? 3 baron 3 mime?
it involves ghost deck for sure right
you already got the interest 1 dollar now or 1 dollar in 2 seconds would change literally nothing i think
I mean like if you need to keep the consumable for the boss blind
i believe so
i havent missed a single wheel this run
deadass most of the points that you could make would make 0 difference if you clicked on the cashout button
you need an a8 boss where one boss requires you to ankh twice somehow to win and another boss doesnt want u to use the ankh at all
oa6s?
or something
so winning on a deck unlocks a new stake. alright, noted
sure but whats stopping you from doing that on first shop instead
yes...
a7 ectoplasm when you dont see the psychic and super dont care abt handsize?
yeah and I keep running back into the fact that you're not really supposed to sell anything in the cash out screen anyways, you keep it so you can block slots
it would have to be a very impactful boss blind to change the values of certain cards
don't think ive ever got psychic that late
maybe once or twice idk
what difference in value exists between cashout screen and first ante shop that actually cares for when you sell some tarot
i found cavendish
or use something
bananeinf?
its impossible to find a proper difference for me entirely because the difference is so small
the main thing is that all of the tarots able to be used on cash out screen are also things that dont really change value based on boss blind
it seems to have virtually no impact after all
caven-BOOOM
prob mouth for aj with black suit tarots idk
How rare is jokers with editions to spawn with riff raff? (Not popcorn tho)
Another Photochad
congrats on your white stake win ❤️
if you have tarot tycoon there would be a use case for using money right away with vaga
you still keep the tarots in either case i think
like either you want it in hand to use or in hand to block right
same rarity as in the shop
please dont skip blinds they are not worth it at all
is it even possible to spawn jokers with editions via riffraff
if you had bad tarots that get better in the case of, say, VV, you'd've kept them anyways to improve the shop via blocking
i forgor
i learned how joker editions actually work today, interesting stuff
Yea that’s why I’m asking
I was not ready for peak to drop tonight
so it would have to be a tarot that is good to use on the cashout screen normally, but gets worse in the face of a boss Blind
and I don't think that exists
I’ll need at least 3 copies of that calendar
BRO WHAT
I WON WITH THE 8 BALL BUILD
i got a couple negatives from riff raff its silly
so yes you can
my first gold stake is with 8 ball
im good with my one :p
this is why i think its ghost deck related which seems even more marginal
It is for money tags spectral tags and double tags
oh I just thought of something
imo ghost is the best deck
what if you have planet cards that are applicable to your hand type, you have campfire, and next ante is a tough Wall
probably not a hot take
normally you would use the planet cards for long-term scoring, but if you know the wall is coming up then you'd want to sell them for campfire value just to get past it
actually thinking about it now is it possible to summon sticker jokers with riffraff
i would still rather use it
like u have several shops
do you have oa6
no
Campfire isn’t even worth it even for it’s long time values
that's surprising
You're just inexperienced
You know what would be cool? Balatro hard mode, every boss blind now has 2 effects
No you're just bad
campfire is among the most powerful cards in the game
unless you buy basically nothing in the shop and/or have an extremely high hand level already the planet is probably worth more i think
iirc im pretty sure that's already a thing
campfire is an econ based xmult its good if you can set it up
uhm i dont want to beat the blind do i play my finisher hand now (whats optimal order btw?)
it only takes 3 variables for a marginal reason this would change decision making. yeah no this barely changes what youd do
the setup for campfire is: playing a normal gameplan
wait it kinda works with bull and bootstraps thematically too
It gives very little mult for each joker sold and takes long as fuck to setup right and when you do have it set up correctly you probably.y find a better joker anyway
campfire wants you to spend money not hoard it
so sell bad planets in the consumable slots for campfire fuel against wall on cash out screen
consumabl3s work for it
Good thing it's not just jokers
:p
its still similar in spirit
Your ment to save money for more jokers dumbass
kek
im still on the busted run and i just got card sharp
like campfire is spending money and then getting no return for it other than the xmult effect
does campfire go up if you also sell consumables
keep current order and play one more high card, savescum if it wins. ill send order below
tarot cards are good until you get the ones you dont want
dumbass me didn't no im ment to save muney for jokulars
which is different from like flash card
thematically its putting stuff into the fire to keep it going
I don’t even get how people tolerate campfire
you can just only use campfire when it's like ante 5 and above
consumables are cards, so yes
because people tolerate living
any card that you're able to sell will scale campfire
and winning
and even then ante 5 and 6 only need like 2x
it's crazy broken if you have a good econ engine
it’s one of the best cards in the game
it’s crazy broken with the bare minimum econ
baron rebate burglar bp bp mime bp bs
i dont need + mult and i have no room for more jokers lmao
should be right i think
campfire with actual econ is like good
and ante 7 and 8 are the runs end its fine spending a lot there
campfire is xmult that you only need to feed as much as is necessary for the current situation, you get to save all of your money for later situations otherwise
just hitting interest cap is good enough
@zealous lynx
I think a big issue with campfire is that people overscale it and then don't have the money to scale it later in the run
It's a skill issue but it's still an issue
It’s just as worse as flash card
yeah people don't know how to spend their money wisely
campfire with an econ engine means you can run 4 jokers and use the last one or selling if you need to
They both suck the same
literally this
ive done that exactly once
what's the difference between a bootstraps
one of its flashes are both the same
Stop trying to make camp fire sound good
It's a bit challenging to determine how much mult you need in lots of cases tho
next hand wins
because it wins a lot of runs
obelisk and campfire are both jokers you cant use properly without a little bit of brainpower
put this on a shirt
least free vaga run
unlucky, just gonna have to rip it and hope its enough i guess
Obelisk doesn't require much brainpower tho
chat did you know deck fixing is good
did you savescum quick enough?
it requires more
The ability to count to 12 perhaps but that's it 
what's that? jokers are the only way to score
just a little tho learning to play both is 1 youtube shorts away
Truly exceptional
trading card might be the worst card in the game, and HERE is why:
when you draw your cards, you have a bunch of cards and they all have value
so when you DESTROY a card, it's gone, and you can't turn it into a gold, so you lose out on over $40 over the course of the run. also, just like that, it's harder to make a straight! you're screwed! and then you get 3 dollars for it, which isn't even an interest step! only like 30 jokers are 3 dollars or under, so it's basically useless. Also, with blue stake, you only have 2 discards and when you use one on a single card (TO HURT YOR FUTURE ODDS MIGH I ADD), you now cut your discards in HALF. that's even worse than what blue stake did, reducing by a third! everyone hates blue stake, so think about it!!!!
finally, it's a uncommon which means that it takes up a valuable uncommon skip slot for The Idol which is the best joker in the game.
is this optimal order though
Hardest part bout idol is surviving while it's accumulating a certain hand
nooot reading allat
holy balal copypasta
add some subway surfers gameplay pls
correct me if im wrong, but isnt jokerless a challenge
i think its normally just like building a setup that isnt based off your hand
yeah a fun one. it was a joke
campfire is basically an xmult slot waiting for ante 5 where xmult matters. dont care for campfire scaling before its necessary and dont go all in if youre still clearing fine
@grok can you shorten this paragraph
sounds like obelisk
i like your name its fun to say. shiggles
i know it is
and theyre both good what a surprise
obelisk doesnt have bbc value
obelisk is rare no?
ill try
They're honoring their fallen brothers shiggles1 2 and 3
did it
It’s meant to thin your deck and cut off the lower ranking cards so you can score higher
am like the uppercase
ok that's fair
the h would stand out to much
I hate the plant
and grammaticaly correct, i suppose
who's gonna tell him
Like "shiggles" but it's fine like that

the uppercase commands respect
just sell pareidolia
it just gave you like 3 bucks
fliip
chips i guess
My deck is based on face cards lol
If I copy my Bus or my Runner with Invisible, will it start at zero??
ive got enough to reroll again though so its chill
still rough with photo but glass ace chad might be enough
nope
its an exact copy minus negative
I think the phrase "idol the best joker in the game" gives away this is satire blud 😭
no, pareidolia photograph seemed to be the crutch
a
sell value is preserved, scaling is preserved, any other edition or stickers are preserved
It’s the same dumbass who thinks campfire is good so I don’t belive
however the duplicated joker will have a default red deck back on amber acorn
Hey don't be mean ❌
Campfire is good too
I read up on the one wiki, but copying scaling jokers was not specifically addressed
best jokers to have togheter is ride the bus and paredolia, just stop playing the game and its good
You js don't know how to manage your econ 
campfire... is good
Thanks for the answer, amigo
youll be fighting pretty much every skilled player in balatro if you really want to die on the campfire bad hill
i dont like campfire
oh yeah check my about me while you're at it
i dont get it
me neither
/ref?
They js need to say bloodstone is decent now and their ass is cooked 😭
its a track record
hey whats your opinion on obelisk
just a quick little question
they had a somewhat sensible response about the trading card pasta
i mean bloodstone IS decent but probably just that
obleisk uses too much brain power for me
i dont like you anymore
hello guys this is my balatro game discussion resume
if you just spam pairs then pivot to another hand later it doesn't require any more brain power than that
maybe im slow but what's bad about bloodstone /gen
my resume is in the nickname
im not good dont listen to me
Wicked...
Heresy even
NOOO im sorry shigles.. bloodstone sucks it sthe worst 8ball is better!!!!!!!
I mean it’s cromulent stupid that you have to play different hand types and nit the same or your mult is reseted tolerable at best
brah 💔
no other way around
having a 1 in 32 chance to lose each round is not great for a joker that you really dont want to supplement with more scoring
In a pinch it might do
8 ball barely hit too
Too inconsistent and the worst out of the 4 suits jokers by a MILE

sly joker
Does the idol only pick from the available cards in deck, like if I only have kings of hearts will it always be kings of hearts
Yep
scoring you cant rely on means its bad and bloodstone is also allergic to the head
the greaterest
Preciate it
yes, every random Joker except ancient Joker chooses from Deck
its worse ancient joker that needs oops
You will be executed tomorrow morning 
Oh castle picks from the deck?
yes
that makes sense
as does rebate
I thought it was like ancient for the longest time
dude why are people setting off fireworks
the only joker that doesnt pick from deck is ancient
obelisk is top 5 xmult
what is there to celebrate right now
it just chooses a random suit it didnt just pick
you buying a balatro calender
And it ain't 5th or 4th or 3rd or 2nd
to do list even choose from available planet hands
TRUE but firewokrs are scary
I never drove two buses at once before, maybe I should try...
That i’m aware, its just castle, picking suit like aj i thought they did in the same way
id rather have a few xmult over obelisk
But that’s good to know
double shortcut !!
betting 5 bucks it's gonna hit shortcut
does shortcut stack
Hologram perhaps?
no
nope
cav, yorick, maybe canio, maybe blackboard, and tbh holo and constellation a lot too
The bus is not as strong as it could be because I have been overscoring and one-shotting. 💡
as much as its inconsistent i love that aspect of aj since it means you cant just replace everything with one suit and it gives you a requirement
copying shortcut with bp/bs is incompatible, meaning effects also don't stack from multiple copies
this sounds about right
also lucky cat
not cat tho he is fun
Yeah it makes it a lot more balanced and gives an use to wild cards
i've never even had a cat run, want to though
died to the needle because of shit luck, but the tooth went very well

Double shortcut so Ace jack 8 5 and 2 are a straight 🔥
i mean it depends
if i am set for cat then i want it lol
cat is too reliant on retriggers to really take off in my perspective
lucky cat stacks VERY quickly with oa6 and retriggers
i feel like cat is lackluster without oa6s and red seals though
if you got em, yea lucky cat is nice
I want two buses pretty bad. I think I will risk double shortcut
nope. you dont want wild cards with aj. they take away another strong part of the joker. the immunity to suit debuffs
chad by itself can already make it nice
well you do want wild cards, they make the draws quite reliable
just not too many
cat is usually about 2.5x for me
i fullskipped and got an economy tag, and then found my gold seal 4
wgich is good
i guess so
its good but not obelisk
I mostly pick magician if he appears in the arcana packs and there's nothing better so whenever I get lucky cat they're at least decent
Checks out for winning the run. Prolly watched too much endless where you’re also trying to build for idol
But then yeah
Either retcon or some suit changers or death
unrelated but is your pfp from rhythm heaven or am i crazy
it is
goated i love rhythm heaven
i stil need to beat rhythm heaven ds smh
lucky cards are awesome yea
I'm gonna go and do 5 attempts to get gold stake nebula if I don't win in those 5 attempts I'm gonna js play some shi like minesweeper cuz I'm tired of nebula
this game is crazy bruh
Hope I get red card and rtb and hologram and all the nice things
idk ive kind of backed down on obelisk slightly
largely because planet chips are really good and obelisk makes them basically not exist
oa6s carrying the run
best nebula strategy tip: quit
Why are your reds a pinkish tone
scaling chip jokers
fuck nebula
trans :p
it is !!
Amazing 
If a two Gros Michels rot, will there be two Cavendishes in the joker pool?
i have the same theme :D
no
no
you don't always have them
flint/needle/eye/arm
Thank you chat
ox
unrelated but is your pfp lace from silksong
it is !!!
you only need 1 to extinct to unlock cav for the run
how is the yellow pink
also you need it to be good enough to not be planeting still
having a banana does not prevent Cavendish from appearing
i often use planets with obelisk. see for instance #🕹・game-discussion message
which happens for sure but feels like roughly a coin toss
you just now reminded me to hop on ss again last judge has been kicking my ass for the past couple days
getting hit by planet killing boss blinds is also a coin toss
Not even holding r can save this god forsaken deck 😭
it is !!! - yutiriko x2
If I have both bananas, will the Michel still spawn Cavendish when it dies of banana tuberculosis?
I got notified by my friend that they added the 'bo to another game
Once I get the gold stake I'll take like a 1 week break to come back strong for black deck 
ok i see the vision
still awkward tho i think
michel: appears in shop only if a michel has not extincted this run
cav: appears in shop only if a michel has extincted this run
there is no other rules
best nebula strat
lol what is this game
duplicate Jokers never appear in shop unless you have showman
i feel like they're mitigatable enough to be much less than a coin toss
abiotic factor
I'm committed to doubling something, just want to be prepared. Thank you @pale wolf
dude these guys have to stop setting off fireworks or else
my friend plays it
o ok i'll check it out ty!
throw one back at them
ricochet one of them back to them
bonfire night? nah same
any suggestions so far?
yes i'll catch it like how po caught the doughballs with chopsticks in kung fu panda 2
sell something for mail in
LMAOOOOO
kill greedy for rebate
a firework went off next to my house and i jumped and almost misclicked the discard instead of play for my winning oneshot flush hand
Getting up to speed fast with y'all's help 🙇♂️
abiotic factor was published by playstack, who also published balatro, that's probably the reason for the cameo
camio?
canio?!?!
connecting the dots../.
- try to get chips instead of a bunch of conflicting mult jokere
- maybe replace one of the suit guys with misprint
- it's always rebate
I recommend BalatroUniversity, drspectred's channel
he is the best player of balatro, and also the best teacher
Balalajokerpoker player
i wouldn't misprint i think
seems pretty dubious value
Better than suit jokers
im mostly doing a flush run with clubs and diamonds which is why i have both. is the rebate the undiscovered joker on the right??
meh dr is nothing compared to a guy like me /j
i think suit jokers are about as unreliable as misprint
just don't look at his tier lists 
Balatro university has videos for almost everything you could be interested in regarding game strategies and they also do lots of streams with useful commentary
im just tryna get my first win
yeah it's overpowered
yeah rebate is the one on the right
i would recommend against running flushes if you can avoid it
if ur gonna take rebate pay attention to what it'll ask you to discard, and make it your secondary focus
I recommended getting rid of just one of the suit Jokers since they're not at interest cap yet anyways and can still use it in combination with smiley
i mean at least u can plan around the suit jokers sort of
this is true
They give lucky cat an s tier so I'm OK with that 
Thanks, I have seen a half-dozen so far. I'd rather read something because learning from video is tedious for me, even with BU's great explanations/editing and 1.5x.
and avoids death if you get a suit boss
have they encountered a suit boss yet
say, theres no way to see previous blinds right?
No
nope
well there is a way, mods
and writing it down
so don't get rid of cardomancer and fortune teller?
damn alright, cant remember which suit ante i had xD
Cartomancer is good
saddest thing in history
ft is somewhat dubious in general but with cartomancer on white stake it's probablg fine to keep
generally you want to keep around value generation like cartomancer as long as you can
only spend as many slots on scoring as you need to
no point in scoring 3x the blind requirements
i gotta say, the handy mod is one of the best lol
Sell uhhh
thats what greedy and glutton were for
I love the handy mod for the 512x speed
Idk?? Sell your soul see if that's worth the 10 bucks
xD
i have trib blueprint smiley and chad
why are you dead broke
ive never used handy but i can only imagine the animation goes by almost immediately in x512 speed
ox?
Well handy is mostly used for swipe to select
The speed boost is a little something extra
I always forget that handy mod is actually named after a balatro term
campfire is fair and balanced
and people say that campfire is bad???
Campfire absolutely carrying the run
no, discard for the purple seals so you can get even more scaling
Don't let it die!!!!
who says campfire is bad lol
One guy
actually the 6x constellation i got in the first shop was what carried the run
someone earlier said that it was bad for reasons that i don't remember
r/Balatro
it's so easy to use dawhg
10 minutes ago
I've never heard a good opinion come out of the Reddit
.
subreddits are very hit or miss
ik lmao im not on r/Balatro
thinking is optional
it just depends on the subreddits
63 chips....
to be fair, nobody would mention the subreddit on here unless shenanigans were afoot
wtf
af foot oot
I'm in the peak of the dunning kruger graph
ive seen so many dookie takes on r/balatro it's actually disappointing
i have my discard, play hand, run info and blinds mapped to my mouse
is that from Ahmad
I'm genuinely so fucking done with voice to text
i wish there was also a "preview shop" button but i understadn not having one since it changes every blind

why art thou using voice to text
the peak of mount stupid is such a funny ass term to me
"i HaTe PhOtOcHaD" when they hate it for its popularity
its so fucking funny
is the peak the peak of confidence or the peak of experience i forgor
elementary schooler type insult
"ur so stupid that you're in the peak of mount stupid"
Peak of confidence
ah
I barely have like any wins on balatro
lol what
i saw some cornball say that blueprint is overrated
like gold stake wins or just wings
ofc it's overrated??????
HELP ME????
It's well rated
Good joker good rate from people
mfw people say the best joker in the game is the best joker in the game:
i changed the cropping on my pfp
White bg
ye
aw i liked the black bg :c
Both
make it transparent
Actually
"guys water is bad bc it's popular and overrated"
no like i've literally heard people say water is overrated 😭
SO many questions! Does Invisible still level up if I skip the round?
people are such creatures
asmongold probably
No
Thanks again
why is perkeo the only legendary that smiles?
oh yeah i think it was him that said something like that
im in a bit of a pickle for decisions
oh he's drunk nevermind
yorick died, idk about the other 3
hammered
oh canio killed someone
oxygen is overrated
why so tall?
foldable phone
all of them died jimbro
insert the z flip or something
one of those newgen flip phones
fold*
except maybe Canio?
he said he didn't like the taste of water once during a stream and immediately """washed""" it down with some g-fuel iirc
I have like 200+ hours in the game and only has 70 something wins
no way 💔
i have 20 hours and just one like cmon
Only 3 deck gold staked💔
In which we gamble and win:
Im almost ready for an idol pivot if I see one
hmm
andy for castle scaling makes sense to me
well yeah everyone dies but yorick dies in his story
andrew for serpent and next shop opportunities, or photo for snb + smiles while full skipping to preserve obby licks
or rather he's mentioned because they find his skull
chaos
chaos
chaos
I would chaos
no brainer zodiac question
that eternal tag alone puts me off
im halfway to c+ with 120 hours
eternal golden is NOT worth the slot
so i had a brainfart moment and thought this was a close call for a split second
i think you take andy for serpent and play some straights and full houses
eternal golden is something i like to take early antes
Yeah so uhh i have more progress to c++ than c+
but chaos is like
chaos the clown, not even a question lol
it can be just not on this deck and against these decisions
pretty much better
exactly
I would take golden
got it so I'll do the other decision thanks pookie
Love glimbo
chaos is both value and scoring bc of the foil
what do i take
valid
and most importantly, replaceable
either fib or dusk but that's just me
glass jimbo?
should I copy my trading card ?
take and sell fib ig
Golden
bruh why are they either dying or permanent
only took fib for $1
Golden jimbo
glolden joker
golden joker, glimbo as in glimmering jimbo
GoLden jIMBO
gonkler
this is like people saying foak
fuck
except worse bc golden doesnt start with gl
1oak
wtf is foak
sometimes the game gives you 4 eternal filler commons and u just gotta hold that
who knows
could be four of a kind, could be five of a kind, nobody can ever tell
Four or five
the hardest runs
why would u say foak instead of 4oak
exactly
deadass
FF
Fuck Off Ancient joKer
foak: 🍴
true, my practice with gold stake painted has made me realize that it's not that bad tho
FFoak
foak: fystem of a kown
what did ancient joker do that's my goat 😭
the opposite from my perspective
AJ won me my first run wtf
the +2 hand size is just so freeing tbh
fistem of a noun
AJ has my respect for now
AJ is so aj
the -1 joker slot restricting early eternals isn’t
going to other decks after a day of painted run decks feels suffocating
thats what foak stands for
ancient joker for some reason i always want to abbreviate as AC instead of AJ and idk why
Ancient choker
i fw the hornet pfp
it's cuz u like the cold
absolute cinema
Looks like this is the end for giga hiker, i have a king with over 300 extra chips on it lol
yh sell hiker and find some mult
I can't
painted is an okay deck
glass
it's got a more interesting play style
wait why
Glass won't make up the difference
here win
are you making sure to play all your hands for dusk value
damn
four fingers painted deck is always fun
abandoned is still better for regular straights, 4oak, and other harder hands
I would need an idol and i didn't find one, I cant score 14 mil so this is the last round
but hand size is still really nice
I wish
painted aint it
say it out loud
evil and intimidating psychic
ngl the pink swapped for the red in the ui is a lot more easier on the eyes
Im scoring about 5 mil off just chips
Help please?

truly is evil
I only just noticed that it's plasma for some reason
devious joker is holograpphic
i thought u were gay /s
awesome half polycule
evil and intimidating psychic
Yeah giga hiker would have died forever ago if it wasn't
swap ice cream for scary face
I don'T understand the joke...
Plasma is so good
trueee
im painted
nuh uh painted is making straights, it's not gay
theyre gays on painted
sure
no you have the gay mod remember
on abandoned theyre straights
painted it gay
so it lures gays in and makes them straight?
Plsma makes scroing so easu
exactly
I lovr palsma
painted is a gateway into being gay
I hate Plasma Deck
Fuck you
Won gold on red deck!
This makes 5 decks beaten on gold
other decks beaten:
-Checkered
-Plasma
-Yellow
-Ghost
Innpartivual
I painted you oopsie

lmaoooo
call me a choosing beggar but 8ball is too many
Yeah even with a glass and a ton of retriggers i was still about 6 mil short, i made it pretty far with hiker being my only scoring

lolll
Hiker or holo Michel? Wish that stupid piece of fruit would rot already dangit. It's round 16, but the hiker would serve well for the coming endless push
is that a challenge deck
Dang my message got automodded
