[narrow wadi]

i love paintbrush, probably my favourite voucher to play with other than overstock

[white zodiac]

speaking of

[narrow wadi]

how do u have so many crazy gold stake runs lol

[white zodiac]

for every cool looking gs run there's about 5 more boring ones I've not ss

[naive jolt]

For the love of god wtf

[narrow wadi]

the perkeo vagabond campfire synergy is cool af

i'd think about perkeo on emperor lol

[naive jolt]

I'm gonna jinx it for sure

[narrow wadi]

kinda same but only like 1/8 are crazy for me tbf

[white zodiac]

every joker here is synergistic with each other

and jolly ig

made me live with no "real" scoring alternatives

[narrow wadi]

i get that but the cool part is the perkeo vagabond campfire

sure burglar is great with vagabond and loyalty

but i've had that in a lot of runs

i've never had that trio

[white zodiac]

perkeo was strictly copying temperance to enable me from using the shop next round

[narrow wadi]

this is the smart play with the higher winrate, perkeo on emperor is the funny play imo

[glad sequoia]

RIP, madness at 11 and holo at 6.75

[white zodiac]

it's funny but it prevents vagabond from spitting out emperors

[robust lance]

Certificate carry

[narrow wadi]

ahhh i didn't consider tarot blocking tbf lol

[glad sequoia]

Absolutely, had tarot and Mercury like crazy

[narrow wadi]

this is some big deck energy

[glad sequoia]

Thanks, it was quite large

[narrow wadi]

i do agree with the size of your deck, could you send a pic so i can assess its quality?

[white zodiac]

it's behind a paywall 💔

[glad sequoia]

It dead unfortunately

[narrow wadi]

ah rip

[glad sequoia]

Otherwise I would

[low spire]

it’s so over big jim hates me

[robust lance]

Jimbo balatro is ruthless!

[narrow wadi]

why is ur raised fist on the right?

[low spire]

it activates at the end

[narrow wadi]

don't u want it to activate first?

[low spire]

wait

it’ll activate before the x2 ones

[narrow wadi]

pretty much yeah lol

u put +mult on the left

xmult on the right

[vale wharf]

@narrow wadi aw man, that boss is going to totally ruin my run

[naive jolt]

Negative hologram looks cool

[narrow wadi]

this is tragic, you might get pair sent down to level 99

that's a reset

[low spire]

PLEASE

LOSE THE RUN

PLEASE

I NEED TO SIPHON HIS LUCK

[naive jolt]

Lmao eternal negative rental egg

[white zodiac]

blue thinks he's on the team

[robust lance]

I think soul elements (or just bits that float off a card) should be effected by editions too

[fading cobalt]

What an interesting first game of the day

[jagged torrent]

Just like most things in life 😔

[vale wharf]

WHA-

[sly bolt]

hello chat I'm pretty new to the game, how do I unlock the scribbled joker?

[vale wharf]

😭 I'm not getting any xmult

[jagged torrent]

Wait there's a scribbled jonkler???

[bleak hemlock]

royale flush.

[white zodiac]

nande

[bleak hemlock]

brainstorm

[robust lance]

When you really think about it… xmulti is just xchips

[white zodiac]

no no the scribbly

[sly bolt]

that sounds hard :<

[fading cobalt]

NEGATIVE IDOL

[jagged torrent]

Ah I see, bs

[fading cobalt]

OH MY GOD

WHAT A SEED

[white zodiac]

I hope you have like steel or something

[bleak hemlock]

🤤

[jagged torrent]

Give me your seed [after your done ofc :)

[vale wharf]

I do, lots of steel and planet seal

[sly bolt]

hi

[white zodiac]

[jagged torrent]

Freakycat

[narrow wadi]

you reset on the ante 8 boss

[white zodiac]

[narrow wadi]

in gold stake black deck btw

[lunar zealot]

Pick your poison chat

[white zodiac]

don't car

[narrow wadi]

i don't get it

am i stupid?

[white zodiac]

running gag

inside joker

[narrow wadi]

ok cool ty

[white zodiac]

u just
had to be here

[fading cobalt]

If I die here I'm gonna kill myself

[narrow wadi]

goddamn it, i shouldn't have been there

[fading cobalt]

Yeah I won

Thank god

[lunar zealot]

Idol on his way to do absolutely nothing

[fading cobalt]

Yeah he's just there till I deckfix enough for him to be relevant

Its not like I was gonna skip a free negative idol lol

[lunar zealot]

no

[fading cobalt]

(negative tag)

[lunar zealot]

idol and baron are mutually exclusive

[fading cobalt]

Still it was a free negative tag

[lunar zealot]

if you build baron you build baron and if you build idol you build idol

[white zodiac]

ticket farming idk

[fading cobalt]

Why not grab

[cedar shell]

built towards getting a hack but now how do i take it

[jagged torrent]

Idol on its way to pick the one 3 of hearts in my 73 card king deck 💔

[cedar shell]

wish trading card wasnt eternal smhhhhh

[narrow wadi]

this matters a lot on ur deck, send me a deck pic pls

[cedar shell]

woah at least take me to dinner first

[lunar zealot]

not rlly my point

[cedar shell]

oops wrong one

[vale wharf]

@narrow wadi ☹️

[lunar zealot]

My point is idol wants eris and glass polychrome red seal cards of a rank that can be retriggered easily

[narrow wadi]

u have no xmult so this doesn't rly matter, the second u click select hold onto brainstorm tho to make it not go far left

[lunar zealot]

baron wants pluto and steel red seal kings specifically as well as mime and particularly hand size

[jagged torrent]

Ah I see,
Also real true

[lunar zealot]

the philosophy is too different

If you build idol build idol

[vale wharf]

I started the blind and I have no clue where it is 😭

[narrow wadi]

a lot of wild makes ancient actually decent but it's still ancient joker so uh probably get rid of idol

[lunar zealot]

idol and baron cannot mix

[narrow wadi]

rip lol, u have a 4/5 chance that this doesn't matter tho

[cedar shell]

would it be better for my score to drop idol for hack

[narrow wadi]

when u play a hand just check that brainstorm does something

[white zodiac]

hold mime so brainstorm always copies it

[jagged torrent]

Idol builds are fun cause you can abuse ectos

:3

[shell dagger]

holding the thing you want copied is better

[narrow wadi]

ur deck isn't one card so kinda ye

[jagged torrent]

Since handsize doesn't matter as much

[vale wharf]

I'm relying on brainstorm mimenfor steel cards

[narrow wadi]

ah true this one was better lol

[narrow wadi]

ah cool, use ur first hand to find where mime is then

[cedar shell]

what if i hold for negative hack

nvm ill hold for negative idol

[narrow wadi]

this is like a 1/1000 chance lol

[vale wharf]

It worked, let's goooo!

[white zodiac]

erm ackshually its a 3/1000

[narrow wadi]

is this real?

[white zodiac]

[narrow wadi]

do u actually know the chances

if so that's cool af

[narrow wadi]

as a general rule btw u can hold onto a joker after u select amber acorn to keep its position

[white zodiac]

it's in the balatro wiki if you wanna confirm any probabilities

[narrow wadi]

i trust u dw, that's a cool af statistic to just pull out lol

[heavy heron]

mmmm steel🤤 🤤

[vale wharf]

I had absolutely no idea pairs could go to the moon 😉😉

[heavy heron]

eternal hallucination + deathing purples lowkey just auto win

[white zodiac]

brought to you by larswijn that invented the concept of balatrowiki.org

[fading cobalt]

Rip

I unlocked stuntman tho

Seed is NH11SVWR

@jagged torrent

[white zodiac]

if only more ppl listened to good players me 💔

[heavy heron]

negative idol

[fading cobalt]

Yeah this seed gives you the choice of idol build or baron build lol

[narrow wadi]

i don't love using wikis in games cos i like to learn things myself, ik this makes me a worse player than if i did use the wikis but i find it more fun

[heavy heron]

without an ecto

wow

[white zodiac]

fair enough

[fading cobalt]

Negative tag tho

[heavy heron]

that’s crazy

[jagged torrent]

Thankyou for your seed ^^
Can't wait to play with it ^-^

[white zodiac]

some ppl don't like terraria for similar reasons

[fading cobalt]

I double skipped for voucher and negative tag and it paid off

[vale wharf]

I'm the only good player 😤
ALL OF YOU ARE BENEATH ME
I AM THE GOD OF BALALA

[fading cobalt]

If I replay this seed I wont skip for negative tag tho cuz idol was useless

[narrow wadi]

this sounds like lord of the game by death grips

[fading cobalt]

Oh my god my ps5 account is officially better than my switch

Less hours yet more jokers unlocked

[white zodiac]

I can think of a way to make idol baron work (in different hands)

[vale wharf]

Billy, why doesn't brainstorm work with sixth sense?

[white zodiac]

idol let's you ticket farm for longer, baron let's you kill a24 (on plasma)

[flint dust]

Question does the no flush joker thing mean no flush straights or flush houses?

the unlock requirement

[narrow wadi]

u can't delete a card twice, u can hover over blueprint/ brainstorm tho to find out if things work

it says incompatible if it doesn't work

[fading cobalt]

But you could get 2 spectral cards for destroying a card once

[vale wharf]

Ohhh, that makes sense

[white zodiac]

don't tell him about the questionable duplicate interactions with 6th sense and trading card

[narrow wadi]

i agree but the game doesn't lol

[flint dust]

?

[floral mural]

fir those hand jokers you need to avoid the specifically listed hand

[vale wharf]

Yeah, ik that, I didn't realise why it was incompatible, though

[narrow wadi]

i do not know these, please explain

[flint dust]

So flush 5, flush house, flush straight can be played... good to know

[white zodiac]

having 2 trading cards give you 6 bucks but having 2 6th sense still gives you one spectral

[cedar shell]

finished a fun run with ancient that got oblierated by suit debuff smh

[fading cobalt]

If hex destroys gros michel will it reappear or does cavendish show up now

[narrow wadi]

i never knew this, this is kinda interesting (not that i will ever see it in game lol), thanks for the info

[cedar shell]

round 1 rare skip into blueprint = increased survivorship bias lets go

[narrow wadi]

i learn something new every day on this discord even with the insane amount of game time i have

[white zodiac]

yeah you're only gonna see this interaction through a mistake

[floral mural]

dare i say that couldve been avoided

ancient can avoid suit debuffs by skipping

its a strong part of the joker

[narrow wadi]

imo if ur skipping to avoid suit debuffs with ancient joker then u have made a mistake by buying ancient joker

[cedar shell]

my winning hand was wild cards

[white zodiac]

sometimes that's the only choice

[white zodiac]

finished an unfun run where aj almost killed me and black board staying goated through these tough times

[fading cobalt]

If we can have negative consumables then why not poly, holo or foil aswell?

[white zodiac]

what would that do

[narrow wadi]

blackboard a goated joker fr

[orchid comet]

what do I sell?
trousers at 32
vamp at 2.2
next boss is the eye, no repeat hand types

I think I sell matador but I'm also greedy

[floral mural]

rookie mistake. relying on wild cards for ancient is very dangerous

[cedar shell]

sell the matador I BEG

[orchid comet]

WHY

[narrow wadi]

tbf ancient joker at least has consistency in that it cycles through suits instead of picking randomly

[brave goblet]

No but listeten listen listen, you could get $36 in a single round with matador

[floral mural]

thin your deck instead to use rhe flushes without too many wild as a reliance

[orchid comet]

I KNOW RIGHT

[sly bolt]

I wish I knew how to make good pixel art

I wanna make a Blasphemous deck

[orchid comet]

72 WITH BLUEPRINT

[brave goblet]

$72 WITH BLUEPRINT

HOLY PEAK

[naive jolt]

Too late little ankh

[orchid comet]

HAHAHA

YESSS

[naive jolt]

Lmao the impostor in the deck be like :

[narrow wadi]

$288 with ankhed blueprint and a brainstorm

[dark otter]

do i sell trib for dna to copy polychrome red seal glass?

[brave goblet]

the best econ joker

[orchid comet]

frrr

I sell rebate

[orchid comet]

fr though matador?

I'd be selling $72

[narrow wadi]

nah u sell tribb, who wants scoring when u could have money

[orchid comet]

but I am at ante 7

[brave goblet]

alternatively, rebate

rebate's common

[orchid comet]

wrong ss

[narrow wadi]

oh mb lol

[young helm]

skip every blind challenge done literally on the first attempt lmfao

[dark otter]

can someone help

[white zodiac]

36?

[floral mural]

8 times 4

[orchid comet]

I have 6 hands

[floral mural]

wait

[narrow wadi]

isn't this 32?

[floral mural]

8 times 4 is 32

[naive jolt]

Gold stake achieved
And a new legendary has the max sticker

[orchid comet]

yes

[vale wharf]

Predict the score

[white zodiac]

lmao

[orchid comet]

oh wait

😭

[narrow wadi]

at least 20 imo

[orchid comet]

1.7m

[floral mural]

matador gives 8

[orchid comet]

frrr?

damn

[vale wharf]

Ooooh, 17m

[dark otter]

do i sell trib for DNA

to copy red seal glass polychrome

[narrow wadi]

This is at least 20 so I win

[orchid comet]

alright I'll sell rebate

[golden valve]

good shop

[narrow wadi]

Wtf

[orchid comet]

I'll reroll tf out of the next shop in ante 8

[narrow wadi]

I’ve never had that lol

[brave goblet]

yeah

[orchid comet]

that's crazy

[brave goblet]

you'll die faster with only 25 cards in the deck

[robust lance]

Throwback my goat (helped me win 4 gold stakes (and I’m not kidding))

[golden valve]

im so lucky

[vale wharf]

1.7m is closer, so I think Light wins 😏

[narrow wadi]

Really? On anaglyph I assume

[orchid comet]

hell yeah

[robust lance]

Anaglyph, painted, black, and then magic

In that order (ish)

[orchid comet]

does it count as double skip?

for throwback

[narrow wadi]

Fr, tho ik it’s a hot take but brainstorm on gold stake is like A tier for me not s

[lunar zealot]

HWAT

WHAT THE FUCK GOES ON WHILE IM GONE

[robust lance]

Wait that’s a good idea

[narrow wadi]

1.7m is wrong, at least 20 is right

[lunar zealot]

WHY WOULD YOU SELL REBATE OVER MATADOR

[robust lance]

Double tags used add x.25

[orchid comet]

ITS MONEYYY

[brave goblet]

everyone uses rebate, the real flex is to keep matador

[orchid comet]

check my ss

[orchid comet]

frrr

[narrow wadi]

No but it gives a reason for skipping to be good

[orchid comet]

I see

[brave goblet]

would you rather be known as the normie who keeps rebate or the chad who keeps matador

[frozen wedge]

Do I take? No observatory yet

[orchid comet]

rebate at ante 7 when I'll spend all my money anyway? Nahhhh

[orchid comet]

photo

take take take

[robust lance]

Steven obviously

Do you think even is his actual first name

[vale wharf]

I guess so

[lunar zealot]

Is this normie or chad

[narrow wadi]

I sometimes buy rebate at ante 7, it’s by far the best econ joker

[shell current]

13.75 million?

[frozen wedge]

No I mean what do I take off

[orchid comet]

I get a lot of money by the end of ante 7 though

[brave goblet]

Chad (everyone hates on baron for gold stake)

[orchid comet]

big blind rn after boss I get 64?

rebate wouldn't give that much

[lunar zealot]

Because baron sucks on gold stake

[brave goblet]

I meaaaaaan

[white zodiac]

rizz

[narrow wadi]

ye ante 7 is generally where i sell my econ joker for an xmult, but if i don't see an xmult and i have a different econ joker i take rebate

rebate is so much money

[orchid comet]

if I use 5 hands for matador and one for scoring with bp on vamp

[narrow wadi]

every round

[brave goblet]

If you have the money you can make it work and then it's just a steamroll lol

[robust lance]

Yeah but imagine the flexing you can do if you become a gold stakes nanlet

Not those SISSIES that do it on wh*tr

[lunar zealot]

The same could be said of any other strategy

[orchid comet]

fr?

[lunar zealot]

baron is just much too volatile

[brave goblet]

Exactly

always have money

[brave goblet]

Yeah cause it's hard to get off the ground on gold

You don't have the base mult to make baron pop

[vale wharf]

Bal who tro 💀

[lunar zealot]

Never say bal who tro ever again

[orchid comet]

what

[white zodiac]

speaking of volatile, thoughts?

[robust lance]

Based

Next question

(I didn’t even answer you lmao)

[brave goblet]

no vouchers

[lunar zealot]

7 x 4 = 28

7 + 10 = 17

[orchid comet]

34 + 35

by ariana grande

[lunar zealot]

Completely fuckin negligible but probably better than smiley

If anything smilet goes here

[lunar zealot]

just make glass face cards

procs sock and you keep your stencil at x2

[white zodiac]

there goes my hopes for a 8 obby licks black deck win

[robust lance]

Uhhh
Balls!

[lunar zealot]

number 4 is 13 i believe

[lunar zealot]

the legends, cav, cat ticket stone glass steel and nevermind that's 11

[white zodiac]

[lunar zealot]

where tf did i get 13 from

[lunar zealot]

Idk sell smiley so you proc stencil

Make glass face cards

[robust lance]

Moderation team, time out this gentleman for exactly five minutes.

[vale wharf]

Please don-

[slim sonnet]

??

[narrow wadi]

[lunar zealot]

3a: Ceremonial Dagger
3b: Obelisk

[orchid comet]

what the dididkskxw

[robust lance]

Showman if it actually gave a shit

[slim sonnet]

showman things

[orchid comet]

brother

[plucky agate]

Showman locked the fuck in

[brave goblet]

sell baron and showman for the two blueprints

infintie parking money 💢 💢

[lunar zealot]

This but unironically

you need to find mime

[lyric shore]

not on yellow and maybe not into hook

[brave goblet]

if you make a lot of money you can just get baron again

[acoustic kettle]

Can they appear if you charm tag skip sb and enchant cards

[lunar zealot]

You fucking idiot

[narrow wadi]

tbf i don't take it on yellow but i do take into hook

[white zodiac]

3b
maybe that's why ppl hate obby licks

[acoustic kettle]

Oh yeah

I'm stupdi

😭

[white zodiac]

[acoustic kettle]

I don't think therefore i am not

[orchid comet]

that's an awesome quote

might steal that

[polar yacht]

Chat which blind should I skip

[orchid comet]

both

[acoustic kettle]

None

[lyric shore]

must you skip

[orchid comet]

oh wait fr tho 2nd one

[plucky agate]

I have mouth and I must yap

[fickle mesa]

1. mad joker, sly joker, red card, i cant think of any else
2. 13 this feels like a trick question
3. shoot the moon feels like the longest but im unsure
   b. madness i think
4. 5 of them: perkeo, yorick, canio, triboulet, and chicot

[acoustic kettle]

I mean you can go skip neg

If you can win boss

[lunar zealot]

2 is 11

[polar yacht]

I’ll skip big blind and let y’all know afterwards what the buffoon skip had

[fickle mesa]

wha

[lunar zealot]

ceremonial dagger is a longer name than shoot the moon

[flint dust]

is fibonacchi not aviable in the abandoned deck?

[lunar zealot]

10 j k q are all +20 mult

[fickle mesa]

there is no 11 rank

[fickle mesa]

well yeah but fist still differentiates

[lunar zealot]

according to raised fist

[fickle mesa]

she was only asking the difference in ranks

[lunar zealot]

for 4 you're also forgetting jokers that need prerequisites to spawn

[acoustic kettle]

Accoridng to fist

[lunar zealot]

cavendish and the enhancement jokers

cat, ticket, steel, glass, and the other one i forget the name of

[fickle mesa]

if i have a red seal queen and i move it to the right with a jack in hand its the jack getting triggered

[lunar zealot]

Stone joker

[fickle mesa]

so raised fist most definitely realizes a difference

[barren fern]

It should be available because I see no reason why it shouldn't be.

[cedar shell]

it is

[amber vigil]

I FINALLY BEAT JOKERLESS AFTER 2 HRS OF TRYING

YESSSS

[fickle mesa]

this is true though thank you

[flint dust]

I havent seen it at all...

[cedar shell]

congrats!

[orchid comet]

good argument

[orchid comet]

CONGRATSSS

[fickle mesa]

i know im so smart right

[barren fern]

You must be getting really unlucky.

[cedar shell]

theres just a heckin lot of em

[fickle mesa]

nobody is as intelligent as me

[orchid comet]

every bows before shadowspussy

[cedar shell]

do you ever just not read someone's username and then someone mentions it

[flint dust]

:(

[amber vigil]

all it took was a ante 1 gold blue seal 9

[polar yacht]

I didn’t win but neither the buffoon packs or the negative skip had any good jokers😔

[amber vigil]

do you not want to bow before shadowspussy?

[orchid comet]

lmfao

[cedar shell]

negative tag might be my guiltiest pleasure

[orchid comet]

rare joker tags for me

[fickle mesa]

blue seals make jokerless very free

[lunar zealot]

idk what you're talking about

[cedar shell]

i took a random rare tag because i was feeling spicy and got a blueprint like an hour ago

[plucky agate]

When hit the road comes along and sits down next to u

[orchid comet]

lmao

W

[orchid comet]

😭

[cedar shell]

survivorship bias reinforcements strikes again

[lunar zealot]

My username is completely innocuous

[plucky agate]

Who invited the order to the function?!?

[cedar shell]

yeah ok

omg the duo, order, family, any hand xmult rares pmo

[plucky agate]

You just really like the British broadcasting corporation

[cedar shell]

am i schizo or are you changing it back and forth

i swear it just said bbc

[plucky agate]

I feel they should be uncommon

[lunar zealot]

idk what you're talking about

[white zodiac]

cool

[jade void]

Do I?

[white zodiac]

next round button not nuked

[plucky agate]

Me when the light of ra blinds me

[lunar zealot]

good boy

[cedar shell]

hold, sell chad for sock, sell showman for sock

[vale wharf]

Heiroglyph ante 1 looks so sad

[plucky agate]

I mean you have literally no retriggers so I'd say yeah

[lunar zealot]

Why the fuck would you take ante 1 hiero

[white zodiac]

not knowing a8 and a7 boss blind being a nothing burger, if you had to skip in order to preserve your main scoring source, do you skip a7 or a8

[vale wharf]

Is it not always a good option?

[white zodiac]

no

[orchid comet]

what's heiro

[acoustic kettle]

no

[lunar zealot]

Absolutely not

[ruby marlin]

Pain

Suffering

[vale wharf]

Why

[acoustic kettle]

i rarely take one even

[lunar zealot]

kills both short term econ stabilization and long term scoring

[ruby marlin]

HORRIBLE

DAMN

IT

am broke 😭

[vale wharf]

How? (genuine question)

[lunar zealot]

Only exacerbated because ante 1 there is no fucking point to going back an ante

[white zodiac]

you don't see a lot of shops in ante 1 as the one main benefit from taking heiro in the first place. stagnating your econ and hand scaling is just an unnecessary detriment

[lunar zealot]

-1 hand genius

[cedar shell]

ideally you want to know why you are taking it in that moment, not if one usually takes it

[jade void]

Uh

[acoustic kettle]

makes your deck black deck without the joker slot

[lunar zealot]

that's -1 dollar per round and -25% of your scoring

[plucky agate]

Credit card in the Buffon pack

[vale wharf]

Ouch 🤕
I see

[flint dust]

THE AMOUNT OF PHOTOCHADS AND MIDAS MASKS I HAVE GOTTEN IN MY ABANDONED DECK RUN AHHHHHHHHHH

[ruby marlin]

No Buffon pack in sight

[lunar zealot]

you're not scaling anything

[ruby marlin]

At least I got gros Michel

[orchid comet]

cc in the reroll

[plucky agate]

Kill showman for brainstorm

[white zodiac]

you basically cut your hand off for not that much benefit since you aren't scaling anything or have the money to search more shops and buy stuff

[lunar zealot]

one would think -1 hand is self explanatory

But alas it has to be spelled out for them

[acoustic kettle]

black deck without joker slot

[white zodiac]

kamiii

[lunar zealot]

Idk man im going to bed

[fading cobalt]

Holy damn

[vale wharf]

Is castle a good joker?

[white zodiac]

damn ok

[white zodiac]

yeah

[fading cobalt]

That negative fibo looks sexy ash

[plucky agate]

No I HATE him

[white zodiac]

it's basically squimbo with a higher ceiling

[white zodiac]

he asked if it was good

[fading cobalt]

Castles have pronouns now 💔

[plucky agate]

I WILL misgender the castle

[ruby marlin]

Ikr 😭

[white zodiac]

it was property of a king

[plucky agate]

People like that irl pmo

[ruby marlin]

Real

[white zodiac]

I wonder if misgendering in the 1300s was ousted as a public crime

[ruby marlin]

It didn’t exist tho

[white zodiac]

who is to say

[fading cobalt]

"you misgendered me thats hate speech" I've never met you how am I meant to know your pronouns 💔

[plucky agate]

It did

[ruby marlin]

Maybe with certain animals

My bad

[fading cobalt]

If you complained about being misgendered in the 1300s you'd either get punched or slapped 😭

They'd probably call you a witch

[plucky agate]

Gendered language has existed for a long time

[ruby marlin]

Or crucified

idk

[plucky agate]

And as long as gendered language has existed, you can call someone the wrong one

[fading cobalt]

If you called a man a woman they'd get mad but if you called a man a man and that man said I'm a woman then that man is getting absolutely bashed

Especially in a bar

[plucky agate]

You can misgender cis people

[ruby marlin]

[fading cobalt]

Your name makes me think of gta online

[ruby marlin]

bruh

[plucky agate]

Maybe they accepted trans people in the 1300's

[vale wharf]

What is the mult counterpart of castle?

[fading cobalt]

Maybe they didn't give a damn lol

[ruby marlin]

Man not to sound rude but women back then really were different from men

[fading cobalt]

"you're trans? Ok whatever" most people probably wouldn't know what that means

[white zodiac]

idk prob bus if you wanna discard faces to scale something indirectly

[obsidian patrol]

theres a newspaper from the 30s or 40s of a man who transitioned and it was not met with disgust but with wonder

[ruby marlin]

we talking about the 1300’s not the 21st century 🥀

[fading cobalt]

Was transgender even a word in 1300s?

[plucky agate]

I SAW THAT she's such a diva

[obsidian patrol]

She is

[plucky agate]

Depends on what culture

[white zodiac]

during the edo period it was definitely not safe

[plucky agate]

Gender norms across societies varied greatly

[fading cobalt]

Okay going slightly off course was fine but now it truly should go to #🃏・off-topic lol

[ruby marlin]

Maybe they were people that considered themselves genderless but in the 14th century most people would see them as crazy
Not to sound rude again

[ruby marlin]

Yeah

You know I don’t want to start talking about this subject since any slip can get me a ban or something

Here we talk about gambling 🤑

[plucky agate]

Gambling = trans. Balatro is trans

[ruby marlin]

How tf

[fading cobalt]

The only slip you could make about a conversation about the 1300s is some heinous comment about slavery bro

Or war idk

[orchid comet]

vamp at 2.3x
trousers at 38
do I get holo?

I don't think it matters that much

[ruby marlin]

FR lol

[orchid comet]

but yee

[obsidian patrol]

gros michel is trans

[narrow wadi]

i don't play magic deck much but when i do i just go hermit double fool. Is this wrong?

[orchid comet]

transferable skill

[ruby marlin]

A banana btw 😭

[obsidian patrol]

Banan

[obsidian patrol]

No

[fading cobalt]

Why are we talking about jokers being trans or not 😭😭

[narrow wadi]

gros michel is like my third favourite joker so i guess i'm trans now

[obsidian patrol]

Why not

[ruby marlin]

Holy shortcut 😭

[obsidian patrol]

Truth nuke

[pale wolf]

@lunar zealot @fickle mesa @orchid comet

[fading cobalt]

If my favourite actor is black does that make me black?? 😭

[narrow wadi]

hm good point, that must just mean i love trans ppl then

[orchid comet]

oh right I counted ace twice

[narrow wadi]

idk any trans ppl irl so idk if i love them, but if i love gros michel i must do

[ruby marlin]

Are we still talking about a banana joker 🥀

[orchid comet]

I think I was right about 1 maybe?

[narrow wadi]

obviously

[orchid comet]

obviously

[gaunt folio]

This has gotta be a Balatro player’s wet dream

[fading cobalt]

I've seen bigger cashouts then that

[white zodiac]

@pale wolf

[gaunt folio]

I’m talking about the absurd start

[fading cobalt]

A balatro players real econ wet dream is when they have a handful of gold cards and mime

[fading cobalt]

Fair enough

[ruby marlin]

I once had double 25$ at first ante on yellow deck

[gaunt folio]

Two polychrome runners and investment tag ante 1

[orchid comet]

you MUST have skipped

[ruby marlin]

I was insta rich

[ruby marlin]

Duh

[orchid comet]

hell yeah

[ruby marlin]

It was the run start

[narrow wadi]

for me it's rebate hitting the right card

[ruby marlin]

If I lose it’s no big deal

[fading cobalt]

Double skipping investment on yellow deck feels bad tbh

[fading cobalt]

Fair enough

[orchid comet]

5 cards hitting rebate

[ruby marlin]

Well it was but….🤑

[orchid comet]

4oak or 5oak but with rebate

[pale wolf]

uuuuh it depends on what the scoring source is i think
most situations would be skip a7 i think

[vale wharf]

Can this really destroy my eternals?

[orchid comet]

no

[fading cobalt]

No

[vale wharf]

That's broken wth

[white zodiac]

here's the scoring situation average atm

[narrow wadi]

jesus christ the thought of this makes me very excited, i don't even wanna imagine blueprint with this

[pale wolf]

My logic is that it is easier to scale obelisk a little bit more with higher scoring requirements if needed

Not that it matters with your high cards

[white zodiac]

15 x 5 x 3 with I think 90 chips atm

[plucky agate]

All the best jonklers are trans

[white zodiac]

x2 with Andrew

[plucky agate]

What's ur fav trans joker guys

[white zodiac]

thing is idk how long I wanna keep andrew

[narrow wadi]

i might not have much authority in what is trans and isn't, but for me trousers is one of my favourite jokers and just feels very trans

[white zodiac]

and a7 skip makes it harder to ramp score right away

[narrow wadi]

especially when polychrome

[brave plaza]

will this be able to naninf? how many cryptids do i need

[white zodiac]

a8 idk the boss blind

[narrow wadi]

idk exactly but probably around 50 if ur not playing plasma

[pale wolf]

yeah that's my idea, if you don't skip anti-7 and you need to skip on the last ante that you have way less time to prepare for the hardest boss Blind, and less opportunity to scale

[white zodiac]

stencil has 3 rounds left

[lament bronze]

Card counting but instead of needing to track probability I just open up the hud of the deck mid play

casinos really dont like that trick

[pale wolf]

Real-Time updating deck view on your apple vision pro

[white zodiac]

1 pair of leniency, playing hc twice kills me via score shortage/forces high base mult hand

[white zodiac]

can't believe you can plaster your casino game on your windshield while driving. this is peak innovation

[plucky agate]

Oh trousers is trans asf

Red card is trans

Chicot is trans

[white zodiac]

stuntman is trans (can't play straights)

[narrow wadi]

rly, instinctively i would've thought red card would be very straight idk why

[narrow wadi]

fire

[narrow wadi]

this makes a lot of sense

[pale wolf]

classic indie game community overestimating an lgbt population

statistically there's like five trans Jokers

[lament bronze]

Jen Joker most definitely

[pale wolf]

and one of them is definitely driver's license

[lament bronze]

too late Zeba

[pale wolf]

I mean it even has bureaucratic incompetency, it's so fitting

[white zodiac]

hows jen doin

[lament bronze]

not like she needs to do that, she takes public transit

[pale wolf]

I mean yeah now she does, her license expired

[plucky agate]

Red card is straight and trans

[narrow wadi]

that makes some sense tbh

[plucky agate]

Stuntman is my trans masc king

[lament bronze]

stuntman and spare trousers do have tboy swag

[narrow wadi]

this is a vampire angle right?

[cosmic sun]

yes

[white zodiac]

yeah sure

[narrow wadi]

i thought so but rarely take it so wanted to be sure

[white zodiac]

no on card scoring jokers

is a somewhat green flag

[lament bronze]

only because you dont really got anything else, but red card making you choose between xmult and +mult from skipping on wasteful/almost useless enhancements is kind of annoying

better than halfsies for sure

[white zodiac]

that can be annoying

standards and arcanas

[lament bronze]

better than halfsies and I wouldnt call it a good angle but its not a bad angle or anti synergy

vamp just sucks overall

[white zodiac]

that's its thing yeah

[narrow wadi]

agreed, hence me asking, red card wants me to skip tarots and vampire wants me to take it

but it's still an early xmult

i took it cos it's an early xmult and i don't have xmult

[lament bronze]

early xmult with holographic, plus you can always scale it off of shop arcanas

plus its green stake levels of scoring

you barely even need that much

[narrow wadi]

punished by seeing blackboard next shop, a much better xmult joker lol

but tbf i take both

[white zodiac]

you take both

[narrow wadi]

i'm pairs so blackboard is easy

[white zodiac]

and discard uhh half boy

[lament bronze]

you take both and kill zanny

[narrow wadi]

what is zanny?

[white zodiac]

and find a more reliable source of chips

[lament bronze]

zanny and halfsies are fodder even in comparison to vampire

[lament bronze]

chips for 3oak

[narrow wadi]

oh i sold this for vampire lol

[white zodiac]

it was dying one of these days

[narrow wadi]

imma remove half joker for blackboard i think

red card on +30

so half isn't that good anymore

it was a shop 1 pickup

[white zodiac]

yeah

a little hard to play 3 cards and activate bb

[white zodiac]

when you need to*

[sacred moon]

Mime is definitely transcoded

[narrow wadi]

i picked up half joker cos it's better than a buffoon pack round 1, it is now sold

my early paintbrush is not great for blackboard lol, but i just need a couple of worlds/ moons to make it not matter

[plucky agate]

They're ALL trans /j

[plucky agate]

Mime is barons beautiful non binary partner

[sacred moon]

Real

[narrow wadi]

with vampire btw and +36 red card do i take magician over skipping a tarot pack?

[jovial mica]

i found the balatro executable to pin to my taskbar, but why is the tagline this lmao

aces ftw ig

[plucky agate]

These are the balatro discussions I want to have

[narrow wadi]

my vampire is only on x1.2 and i only have a few cards it can scale off, surely the magician is better than the +3 from red card

[white zodiac]

@lament bronze what's your input on salvaging this 8 hand cap obby licks run rn

obby licks is at 5.2x
heart boss irrelevant
heart suits most abundant
castle on clubs & 90 chips
average score with x2 stencil = 40k
upper bound = 90k
unknown a8 boss

[jovial mica]

your stencil is gonna die

[white zodiac]

x mult becomes priority in the later half of the run

[narrow wadi]

@white zodiac please advise on this, u are probably a better balatro player than i am and i never rly take vampire so idk the line

[vale wharf]

Super lame, but
Mom, get the camera! A wheel of fortune wasn't a nope! (second castle)

[narrow wadi]

is this u saying to use the magician

[viral raft]

Yorick is the best Legen Joker

[narrow wadi]

i think that is better

but idk

[viral raft]

idc you guys opinion

[white zodiac]

usually around 30 mult is like the safe spot to transition to x mult

[narrow wadi]

cos i don't use vampire nearly at all

[narrow wadi]

ok so cos i'm at 36 i use magician right

thank you, mb for pinging you but vampire plays i am very new to

[white zodiac]

im like the opposite lmao (only because I have to play 2 pair frequently)

[jovial mica]

two pair??

[white zodiac]

mhm

black decks alternative poker hand

[jovial mica]

my play time is cooked

[white zodiac]

along with other harder decks

[narrow wadi]

vampire is literally my only joker without any sticker lol, i hate picking it up cos its scaling condition also hurts you which i find hard to take

[pale wolf]

vamp is great xmult

[white zodiac]

in a way it's sort of unconditional decent scoring in that it converts card reliance scoring/value into x mult on a joker that would proc more consistently long term

[lament bronze]

stencil dies soon enough, gamble with judgement due to no proper good card to copy, could also suggest hanged man if you're really scared of rng but you have andy and summit you rarely need anything for better odds and you clearly cant get a good card, will need some more info on the obelisk hand and how close you are on average with every other hand

very odd that you get 90k with a 5x obelisk and a x2 stencil

[white zodiac]

banner is not it btw

[jovial mica]

i got the game six days ago

[narrow wadi]

red card vampire is huge anti synergy imo, vampire is only decent cos i've already scaled red card

[lament bronze]

massive skill issue, somehow incapable of even beating white stake with that

[white zodiac]

had to play a secret flouse

[narrow wadi]

ayyy i got campfire now so ig the run is won

[lament bronze]

yeah but its just

damn

thats too low despite all that you did

[white zodiac]

I've played these games before

[lament bronze]

far too low

[narrow wadi]

i assume campfire goes over to the moon, it's conditional to be 1 buck more than golden

[lament bronze]

at this rate catching up to obelisk is an issue with how much you have to play

[white zodiac]

tbf I had andrew

[pale wolf]

if you never take a joker youll never get a sticker on it

[white zodiac]

could just discard him on the one round I decide to play out after

[lament bronze]

golden is worse and the only condition for to the moon is something you WANT to do 24/7

its extremely easy to treat $25 as $0 once you get past interest cap

[narrow wadi]

with campfire tho i might wanna go under 25 which makes it the same as golden

[narrow wadi]

true tbf

[lament bronze]

not really at all

[pale wolf]

if you go below interest cap with campfire its ante 8 and money doesnt natter

[narrow wadi]

good point

[white zodiac]

you're only gonna go below 25 dollars on the finisher blind

[narrow wadi]

golden joker goes

[white zodiac]

yeah

[lament bronze]

specially with how dummy thick your lineup is with xmult, barely anything needed to use on campfire

at this point its a win more joker lmao

[narrow wadi]

i love golden joker because it means i don't have to think lol

most recent win had camp

[lament bronze]

yeah but once you get interest you dont have to think + it rewards you for it

[narrow wadi]

i win this run 100%, i only loaded up blue stake cos i got depressed by losing 2 gold stakes in a row

[pale wolf]

purple joker sucks but he kinda rocks when you get a purple seal ante 1

[white zodiac]

it was low on purpose, I haven't seen my true upper bound scoring yet

[lament bronze]

Interest is a necessary mechanic to actually make the game difficult but once you get the mechanics of it, its strictly a flawed win-more button

[narrow wadi]

100% agree ngl, yellow deck is by far my most consistent on gold stake for this reason

[pale wolf]

without interest youd just be playing green deck with an effective cap of 20 for hermit instead

i think interest is a good mechanic

the interest vouchers tho.... winmore

[lament bronze]

I dont think the game would be better off without it because it would mean that every other joker or thing should be knocked off a peg in price or rarity because otherwise you just cant get shit

[narrow wadi]

i agree cos it's a skill intensive mechanic which i love, getting to 25 on gold stake took me a while to figure out

[lament bronze]

plus like, jokers that synergize with it and you see how awful the green deck experience is

[acoustic kettle]

green di

[summer jay]

Green dih

Green dih experience

[lament bronze]

but once you get the skill required to it, its simply a means to an end to obliterate everything without thinking

[pale wolf]

without hermit/interest You kind of have no incentive to save any money at all, I feel like that's less interesting

[white zodiac]

castle is effectively x2-x9 my total chips depending on poker hand. I have 1-2 rounds to farm chips with andrew before I NEED to ditch him. the timing would depend on which ante I would want to fully skip. (investment tag & negative tag on a7)

[lament bronze]

its just too free to have the equivalent of a stronger golden joker AND CREDIT CARD without any other thing than having a bit of patience

and also pushes you to always have the utmost hermit output

[white zodiac]

it adds another decision point to a purchasing decision

[lament bronze]

while not even punishing you like credit card does

while not even being a hard thing to question

[narrow wadi]

can you pls explain this in a way that i understand, i love the castle, i find it scales way faster than square

[jovial mica]

how does credit card punish you

[lament bronze]

"Should I buy this joker that can help me oneshot or should I just keep this interest treshold... Hmmm..."

its not even close

you only need one semi bad joker to completely wreck the first antes and cash out

[acoustic kettle]

castle got hit by blue though

[white zodiac]

it was for my run, castle is at 90 rn and this is my current poker hand chip levels

[lament bronze]

and then interest is just filing your taxes and raising your kids for you

[summer jay]

Maybe even, bravery
Maybe even, integrity
Maybe even, perseverance
Maybe even, kindness
Maybe even, justice
Or maybe, even Ball Game™

[lament bronze]

its not even a skill past understanding what you need

[lament bronze]

funnily enough, by not letting you get interest

[white zodiac]

takes up a joker slot to reap the niche benefits and removes interest benefits

[lament bronze]

well, twice as much

[jovial mica]

oh true

[narrow wadi]

low level hands makes +chip jokers very good so surely u keep castle every time

[summer jay]

I fucked up I forgot to reply

[lament bronze]

takes one slot, doesnt allow you to rack interest, actively keeps you away from it

[summer jay]

[acoustic kettle]

cc is free most of the time

why not take it

[lament bronze]

going down one interest treshold means you have to make 5 more bucks to make one buck

[summer jay]

Some people don't like captions for some reason

[lament bronze]

going down an interest treshold through credit card means you have to make 10 bucks to make one buck

[acoustic kettle]

right

they want open captions or something

[lament bronze]

I just think its necessary but calling it skill or even fair is not really something that is feasible

makes the game better by not having it be the green deck experience and also telling you to not bumrush through awful starting jokers

[narrow wadi]

unless u get the +1 buck temperance, then it's only one buck u need to make up

[white zodiac]

it's mostly an afterthought at one point

[lament bronze]

but it also just feeds you an awful lot

[white zodiac]

like a noob check

[white zodiac]

yeah I wasn't planning on removing it if it's effectively a safe x5 chips on average

[lament bronze]

noob check and a simple win more for anyone with enough patience to just not buy TWO jokers to onetap big blind on ante 1 (They could have done it without buying a single one)

[summer jay]

Me when i have rebate, to do list, trading card, golden joker, and midas mask but I lose because I'm on ante 3 with no mult nor planets because I spent all my time getting econ

[narrow wadi]

i like when u agree with me cos ur probably much better than i am and that means i would've made a good decision

[lament bronze]

(Just not buying one of these could have racked up a grand total of 10 dollars through interest alone)

[white zodiac]

smug and some other ppl are good too

I'm just a casual number head

[summer jay]

The joke is that I get both my money up and my funny up

[narrow wadi]

i agree given i think i'm still very good at this game because i learned from dr spectred lol, but imma always try to learn from ppl better than me cos that's the only way to improve

[lament bronze]

A BU fan that actually admits they know stuff through BU?

unheard of

[narrow wadi]

what's bu? i only know it as bulk up from pokemon

ohhh

balatro university

[brave goblet]

balatro university lol

[narrow wadi]

ye

that's me

[lament bronze]

its always "Dont assume because I have the exact same opinion of the youtuber said in the exact same way that I got it from them"

[narrow wadi]

i watched balatro university before i played the game cos i hate being bad at shit

[acoustic kettle]

i was so bad at being shit i won without knowing anything

[narrow wadi]

i often have the exact same opinion cos i learned it from them lol

[brave goblet]

I beat first white stake without knowing you could rearrange jokers lol

[narrow wadi]

i change opinions on jokers nearly every day cos someone good at the game tells me otherwise

[orchid comet]

I watched markiplier right after I started playing that's how I learned not to skip so often

[acoustic kettle]

i only know how to like 50 hours into the game dw

[latent egret]

nahhhh

that's insane

[orchid comet]

I started playing and was like "this is so cool there must be ppl playing and posting it"

[narrow wadi]

i do have some pride in instinctively knowing most skips are bad, i did however used to think that negative skips were good lol

[brave goblet]

lmao mark was my introduction to balatro

[white zodiac]

I was surprised how fast market pliers picked up on how powerful hologram was

[latent egret]

unless balatro is your poop time game, then understandable

[orchid comet]

lmfao

[drifting rapids]

Game took a turn in my life...

[acoustic kettle]

i only found high contrast like yesterday

[lament bronze]

yeah, im just making fun of how people get really defensive when you even come close to implying they only know or belief that shit from BU

[orchid comet]

I've never seen him be called that

[lament bronze]

no big shade to BU because thats just an objectively right opinion most of the time

[brave goblet]

I unlocked merry andy and the other jonkers by accident cause for a time I thought skips were good ....

[lament bronze]

but then you see osmeone quote him directly

try to joke that he got it from BU

[orchid comet]

I was worried for a second

[lament bronze]

"Cant people have the same opinion as a youtuber smh"

[narrow wadi]

i got that dw lol, i just thought it was funny that most of my opinions are from him

[orchid comet]

thank god I come in chat to ask why he made the decisions he made

[acoustic kettle]

200 hours into the game

now

love balala

[white zodiac]

yeah opinion immediately invalidated because doc said it not me

like

[fervent wolf]

I think I lose here

[lament bronze]

BU is often straight up objectively right but its funny to see people clueless 5 minutes before about a joker and suddenly switch up on it

[surreal spruce]

Ggs

[jovial mica]

find the ones u can't sell

[white zodiac]

I think you've made it when there is truly nothing left to learn from him

[sacred moon]

Hmm, wonder what deck I like to play

[lament bronze]

"BU made another record with a semi useless joker now you have to bear people trying and failing to use it effectively on chat and complaining about it while singing its praises of what it [could] be"

rince repeat every week

[narrow wadi]

before balatro i was an hk speedrunner and i think that taught me that what i think is often not correct, which helped me stay humble and learn from others

[fervent wolf]

It actually doesn't even matter

[acoustic kettle]

not enough immolate

smh

[lament bronze]

oh well a little less than a week because hes slowing down

[brave goblet]

I mean, if you play ghost deck even a few times that'll skew your hexes a ton

[jovial mica]

is it the ceiling that's the problem?

[brave goblet]

He was just memeing lol

[sacred moon]

I love immo

[lament bronze]

Billy talking about balatro like it was the knee injury

[white zodiac]

@surreal spruce omg brooke black deck win streak of 10 player please womansplain me

[narrow wadi]

i think i'm at that point now, like i win gold stake over half the time but i still have a long way to go

[lament bronze]

before the crippling addiction to the funny card game... Iwas unstoppable...

[narrow wadi]

lmao

[lilac pendant]

i was never that good an hk speedrunner

i was barely top 10

do not cat

do the cat

the cat do you

[orchid comet]

woah

[jovial mica]

wo

[lilac pendant]

Do not the cat

[sacred moon]

Speedrunning silksong?

[lilac pendant]

the cat not do

[surreal spruce]

What am I spraining

[lament bronze]

top 10 is actually quite high considering the amount of people and the sheer mass of autism surrounding a game about bugs

[surreal spruce]

Splaining

[lilac pendant]

Ur knee

[orchid comet]

hk?

[white zodiac]

how to salvage my 8 obby licks black deck gs win

[surreal spruce]

No

[orchid comet]

ankle

[narrow wadi]

i did on release but i have hand issues from speedrunning hk so much lol so i can't practice enough to be a top runner

[white zodiac]

since you're the balatro university

[orchid comet]

doc oc

[narrow wadi]

appreciated, i spent so much time on the game cos i love it so much lol

[sacred moon]

Fair enough, early game silksong speedrunning is just carpal tunnel sim

[narrow wadi]

hollow knight, imo the best game ever made

[narrow wadi]

i got carpal tunnel speedrunning hk, silksong is even worse

given optimal movement is jump dashing

[sacred moon]

Hollowknight definitely top 3 game for me

Maybe 1st

[white zodiac]

some things you just learn on your own, like treating joker chips, planet chips, and base chips as some form of x score when comparing them to each other for what the best score is

[narrow wadi]

it's my top 1, i played it cos i'm a no hit fromsoft guy and i found hk more fun than any fromssoft game

which is a high bar

[glass creek]

I didn't really like hollow knight ngl

[white zodiac]

it's a huge message chain mb

[surreal spruce]

Ermmmm with merry Andy you could go for hard hands to play for obby better. Run that with some deck fixing maybe go for a 4oak angle with glass face cards for sock value. Which would be x4 per which does more than anything stencil is doing, and finding a replacement for stencil since it will be useless final boss. Sorta just pray it isn’t VV unless you can repliable hit the cards. So for that shop I would use the hung men to cut out some of them and go from there as that’s statistically the best for finding the big hands.

Ofc this depends on your hand usage thus far tho

[pale wolf]

are you still on this run

[narrow wadi]

agreed, i try to play instinctively and i'm learning to do this without using a calculator lol

[orchid comet]

ppl use a calculator?

[white zodiac]

uh

I don't think I can afford to play out rounds

[narrow wadi]

rly? it's a valid opinion but i would like to know why

[surreal spruce]

No you do not

[lilac pendant]

jokxtong tongue throws the beard. Hockington

[surreal spruce]

Erm

[glass creek]

Probably just not for me

[surreal spruce]

What I would do

Is play for the 4oak

[glass creek]

I got bored of it very quickly

[surreal spruce]

And using hc when you can’t

As a buffer

[narrow wadi]

on gold stake black deck i started using calculators to work out how much i can greed (my phone, i think the calculator mod is an unfair advantage)

[white zodiac]

I was thinking of removing Andrew and skip three times for stencil score preserve

[narrow wadi]

probably and that's fair enough, i found the game so beautiful i couldn't stop playing

[surreal spruce]

Do you score enough with the extra x1

[plucky agate]

Me when my opinion is WRONG

[glass creek]

Two different types of people

[narrow wadi]

ppl like different things, as much as i think hollow knight is the best game of all time other people might just not like it

[white zodiac]

#🕹・game-discussion message
with my average score with x2 stencil it's at 40k while intentionally scoring low

[lilac pendant]

What did Andrew do

[orchid comet]

opinion

[plucky agate]

I'm obviously joking

[orchid comet]

define it

[surreal spruce]

Okay so it would be 60k while scoring low

[narrow wadi]

ah mb lol, i'm a bit autistic so struggle with this lol

[plucky agate]

Define joke

[white zodiac]

given 4.6x obby at that time and 72 chips

[surreal spruce]

Could look for a tarot to help

[orchid comet]

a bit? you're the most autistic person I've met

[shell current]

My only problem with hollow knight I played celeste right before it and that completely ruined every other platformer’s movement for me

[orchid comet]

(I've only met 1)

[plucky agate]

How far into it did you get

[narrow wadi]

is this a bad thing?

[glass creek]

I don't remember but not very far

[white zodiac]

should I play out the round with the negative tag then as the 1 round

[orchid comet]

please see the 2nd message 😭😭

I feel bad now

[plucky agate]

The start is the worst part imo. As soon as you get to greenpath/get dash it becomes so much more fun imo

[narrow wadi]

dw i am not easily offended

[shell dagger]

if you’re in this server you have NOT met only one autistic person

[orchid comet]

LMAO

[narrow wadi]

and i wasn't without reading the second message either

[plucky agate]

You should give it another chance. If you didn't get past forgotten crossroads I suggest giving it another go

[white zodiac]

I count as 2 ppl (im autistic obese)

[dapper flower]

i js had a 1 in e17 chance experience
two high cards with lucky cards with blueprint on hanging chad
NO MULT from either
if im calculating this right this is 1 in 5^25 or 1 in 2.9e17

[surreal spruce]

Free joker that’ll work with stencil I think so

[narrow wadi]

hi autistic obese, i'm billy

[pale wolf]

both hollow knight and silksong i got bored of at the start and dropped
but then i picked hollow knight back up and 100% it so hoping that happens with silksong too

[white zodiac]

wait play that round or skip the negative because I was thinking the former

[surreal spruce]

I mean what’re the other rewards

[shell dagger]

As in 2 times lucky cards were triggered and didn’t give mult?

[white zodiac]

investment tag

[surreal spruce]

Ooo

[shell dagger]

2 trials?

[surreal spruce]

Investment is better

[white zodiac]

in a7 small blund

[shell dagger]

I guess 6 trials

[narrow wadi]

it probably will, they are great games. Ignore the hate that not liking eiether game gives u tho, u are allowed to not like a game which most team cherry fans ignore

[plucky agate]

I like the start of silksong much better than hollow knights start

[dapper flower]

blueprint on hanging chad
5 times cuz its 2 retriggers twice so its 1+2+2 = 5
and that twice so 5x5
and its a 1 in 5 so 5^25

[narrow wadi]

agreed, i like hk middle game and endgame more tho, that might change with dlcs

[shell dagger]

ah 10 trials

[pale wolf]

yea i played more of silksong before getting bored, like 8h

hollow knight was like 4h

[white zodiac]

I can play out 1 round between a7 and a8 while still preserving the stencil. investment let's me spend more in the shop this ante. that leaves with ante 8 with one shop into the boss. with variable results via boss and tags

[dapper flower]

mightve calculated wrong its prolly 5^10

[narrow wadi]

8h would put u at like act 3?

[pale wolf]

no

[dapper flower]

thats still over 9 million so

[pale wolf]

you're lucky ive even been spoiled about multiple acts already

[surreal spruce]

Yes I agree

I think tarot is best option for a power spike here

Too

[plucky agate]

That's so fair. They're different games so they have their advantages and disadvantages

[shell dagger]

yeah your odds of getting 0 triggers in 10 trials is (4/5)^10 or about 11%

sorry not 1 in e17

[dapper flower]

oh wait im dumb

yeah ty

[plucky agate]

I just love how smooth silksongs combat is

[narrow wadi]

it's hard for me to know where casual players would be lol, i have maybe 4k hours in hollow knight which makes silksong easy for me

[white zodiac]

tarot?

[shell dagger]

lmao im 34 hours still solidly in act 2

[white zodiac]

I already hung my 3s

debating on what planets I should take

[surreal spruce]

Finding one in shop to bring in for boss

[white zodiac]

oh

[surreal spruce]

Like a glass essentially wins the run

[white zodiac]

yeah maybe suits or glass

[narrow wadi]

rly? this makes me feel good about the time i've wasted playing hk given i was in act 2 in like 1.5 hours

[surreal spruce]

Steel also works well here

Tho glass is just better

Death is good
