man #🃏・off-topic is the most random shit

Free sheet metal to weld with
how did that get out of my house
why would you even want that.
What music u guys listen to while playing balatro
Filth by swans rn
but it's a v12
Power for power specifically
let that sink in
uhh why did you ask about estrogen anyway
I listen to heavy metal while playing balatro
They need a dealer
Goated strat
doesn't that hurt your ears
You should defo try power for power then it's like
Really heavy rock
i HATE that image
Is it like sabaton
60 minute sorting algorithms
balala theme better
This is just beautiful
I weld bro my ears are the least of my concern
balatro.
It is not like 27/92 polyrhythyms if it's one of those kind of bands
VWWWWWWWOOOOOoooooooooooppppp
VWIP vwip VWIP vwip VWIP vwip
I haven't heard sabaton but it's prolly close enough
that sorta thing
When I first starting smoking I would watch these for hours
gets showman
Gets two invisibles
Invis copies invis
Repeat previous step
I also listen to soad and linkin park
mostly as a joke. estrogen causes chest pain but mostly in a soreness way distinct from other forms of chest pain because boobs
Golden experience requiem
people assign different notes to an ordered list, randomize the list, and then use different sorting algorithms
this used to work
The lion uses splash
wtf did i just hear
The lion doesnt concern himself with the 0x
splash is okay
sometimes 765 Hz Sine Tone Amplitude 1
i was accurate
in what
yeah
Is 1.1 atleast coming early 2026 or will it be another gd 2.2
its sort of pareidolia in that sense
I guess this implies youre trans…
should i pivot?????????
when it's done
Blue stake black deck
yh
wow so cool
yeah you definitely should
No it's bait
You're already here bro fym
pareidolia is the worst, always comes in the worst times, and when you need it, maybe because you have midas or canio it WONT show up
i hate it.
Bros build:
multiple economic synergies with little of its own solo applications, theoretical scoring applications that dont really work out and usually not staying around for long due to being the weakest link because of its dependence
i wouldnt say the worst
Goated strat
i didn’t mean the worst, yk
altho midas mask is prob the most powerful one
"its eggbuckler I swear!"
Looks inside
Photochad
Oops all is rarely useful
The disrespect to oops is insane
canio on paper but realistically u have enough face cards
Canio rework when
anything at all
Looks inside
photochad
it doesnt need one
Never 
its a great xmult scaler which is what i want from a legendary
breathing
Looks inside
Photochad
oops is kind of a pareidolia
Type of shit that will happen if wheel of fortune procs
pregnant woman
looks inside
photochad
i also agree with you even when its useful its not always really doing much
How in the hell does oops correlate to pareidolia
“oops, you used all your luck today“
Nat negative cola lol
see above when i discussed how splash is pareidolia
indirect econ enabler
does oops affect wheel?
Yes
I guess so
0/4 x2 is still 0/4
Black deck MUST be good right? ANOTHER joker slot!
wheel will never hit
fair.
Is dna worth it?
Checkered deck main
hell yeah
Had wheel hit on all but 1 run today lol
blue seals go hard
ye
impossible!
he must have altered the game files
Checkered deck the best
is it actually worth it here
I played like 20 runs today
For me it was the opposite, you stole my luck you sick son of a bitch
bro used all his luck for the next 20 days
like ur deck is small and u have 5 hands 3 discards
I can consistently hit 3 blue seals already and I only want to get to ante 8
i think u can dig through the whole thing
Who uses stunt man
Bro STOLE all my luck for the next 20 days
@mighty orbit

plasma deck users
anyone who is good
preferably id find some xmult first but for smiley sure ig
Ngl stuntman has aura though
stuntman in plasma deck goes brrrr
That’s what I’ve been trying to find no luck tho
stuntman just looks sick like that
its not even plasma deck
So for plasma u stack chips instead of mult?
its good on every deck
If I go glass it’s worth it
Yes
kinda
no
The fuck you mean no
you wanna do one or the other
lol
?!
which usually means chips because mult is significantly harder to stack
Balatro should collab with otxo
plasma score is calcualted by [(chips+mult)/2]^2 so you should pitch into mult OR chips
just not both
Just say you wanna prioritise chips jesus
only took 3 minutes for you to break character
well its nuanced
as a professional hater, I chose peace
there r def mult plasma runs
there’s no joker that multiplies chips tho
it wouldnt be correct for me to say only chips
What is abandoned deck good for
chips dont rly need multiplying
oh boy here we go
fun fact: you need around 6x more chip/mult to make plasma worth it
triboulet
Those runs would heavily rely on xmult, bootstraps or any high xmult builder
theyre already so high compared to mult
Yea he is one in 5 chance to get
trib lowk not bad on abandoned
Average black deck run
how.
ur decks already small right
ye
Feed it to me for free 20 mult
so when u do start making face cards ur never gonna struggle getting them

im gonna pretend I didn't see this
How it feels moving my cards in position to use death
ceremonial dagger feels like a toddler that you have to take care of, i won’t stop saying it
Ew AI
ive beaten abandoned w trib before
also wtf am i looking at
u need tarot gen but u sorta need that for trib to begin with
Idk abt yall but I love just replaying some of the challenges like fragile, 15 minute city, and 5 card draw
Why is it on -827
Yo your dawg is pretty cool ngl
Wow
calibration error
bet thanks
So mean to me :(
cloverpit:
we need real money gambling in balatro to make it 19+
No dice? We're dying in ante 6
Why are you playing the 10 first
dagger is rly good
Dude
i had 2 dagger runs back to back today
We're dying in ante 4
both were very strong
THANK you
So what cant happen
although
Not copying jimbo? Dying in ante 0
thunk made it so clear that balatro won’t be a gambling game
real
I'm still all the Dagger types trust
dagger fans after picking up liquidation (+1 mult per round now)
apologies mx dagger
-1 you mean?
not with egg
Or gift card
or if ur done growing it
oh yeah it looses mult every round now
you right
but like egg
i feel like you love the omelette challenge
both work
but like
stumbled upon it
yeah
the biggest dagger
the biggest dagger starts with gift cards
just gift
and then gets like 1-2 eggs at the end
Uncs how was the early days of balatro like before it got popular
lol
my ex played balatro before it got super big
fr?
i dont remember much abt it unfortunately
Don't even joke lad.
Chicot's alright
is there like a sorting algorithm that plays any fnaf audio files
that's trib
Flowerpot sucks donkey balls
bro got immedietlly summoned after hearing that 💀
lmao
pfp checks out
REAL
most situational joker
Yeah and you know what luchador is?
flowerpot is niche as hell
A really fucking good joker
Yes
Add a slot machine joker
I don't get the chicot hate
chicot has some competition now that luchador tech has been discovered
Make chicot have infinite sell value since he's just infininte lucha
Just play cloverpit
Luchador tech?
If i get chicot it means I don't have to worry about blinds that could counter my build
Ok what
in which case
Will there be more tarot cards added or since he made one for all of them there wont be new one
i actually dont fully get the luchador glitch
face card brainlets hate anything that doesn't help number go up
How much base mult you got there chum
😳
they will then subsequently complain about the plant every time they lose a run
Not much
I pray you make it past ante 4 and get a good run
It's like the best counter to a bunch of their boss blinds too 😔
I've had a few today
ahh matchup
Yea I hope I don't fumble
chicot does luchadoors job way better
Got some steels though
many ways to beat the plant but chic is in fact one of them
oh yk something cool i just realized wrt dagger food
any benefit to me getting apps all 6s in this run
chic is better than luchador because you can use it and THEN feed it to the dagger
M
talking abt chicot here’s the #1 chicot hater
lmao
Whats the wr balatro ante 8 speedrun
I love Chicklets
no i'm the #1 chicot hater
I'm the # √(-1) hater
i bet roffle hates him more
ch*cot
you're right
my first legendary was canio
GREEN DECK GOLD STAKED!!!!
AND CANIO GOLD STICKER TOO WEEE
sensor
my first legendary has been perkeo for both my first and second file for some reason
i was right the first time
Same...
cantio
Perkeo wants you twin
cangoatio
same to me but with canio lol
Balatro is like the poker buckshot roulette
chicot for both of mine lol
perky yo
buckshot roulete kills you, balatro just game overs you
honestly it wasnt as hard as people seemed to put it, i legit had fun in gold staking green
you die in balatro you die in real life
real
jimbo laughs at you*
You probably die if you cant pay the money you gambled away
someone should do that
there may be a reason for this
what is ur pfp?
you're telling me to kill myself?
it might be the chicot guy
that isn't very nice.
NO NO NO NO
woah another shadow
ankh here or just truck on?
1k+ dms from mee6 when mee6 was still a good bot
only one deck stands between me and c+ now...
Perkeo overrated
your username is strange, please don't interact with me
mmmnurp
from all the times you got banned
perkeo is the goat
wait isn’t mee6 a good boy anymore?
meow?
and that is?...
idk I'm not clinniclly online enough to know
i'd take the blue seal i think
the legendary jonker
or familiar works
you just said it wasn’t.
oh yeah, fair lol
dimentia
dementia
Same boss...
I have two
i also got a run with both yorick and canio in purple stake so, maybe a streak of luck?
you wanna know who else has dientia?
it's either ankh trib which I dont really need but its funny
you wanna know who else has dienentitia?
you can never have enough blue seals!!!!!!!!!!
what
dentia?
or keep vutting cards
unles you have a mime
idk, hope i get the same luck on black deck
which you don't
anyone got any tips to tackle it?
I wont ankh I think
like i said familiar is fine probably
just hope for not jacks
yeah definetely don't ankh
i feel it shouldnt be too hard but idk
ankh for the funzies
play good win fast
black is the best deck
yeah dont try growing square vs ante 1 boss blind unless u know for certain you can or u have mult
exactly the face i do when i get chicot
ur anus is best paired with black deck
check if you get hit with one of the two cringe a1 boss blinds
first boss blind just needs 2 5 card hands leaving 2 for squimbo scaling
the propaganda aint gonna get to me im sorry 💔
and raised fist
no un ironiclly uranus is a good option in black deck
hook and?
balala university uses it
were u not just telling me my username was strange and to not interact 😭
manacle
i'm correcting you, not interacting with you
aight 🙏
@nova mantle
just try fill joker slots early if possible
not on black deck gs
and like.. think i guess
the manacle haters after i duplicate chicot to give myself extra hand size
black deck takes more brain power than most other decks methinkles
i can do that yeah
you need some form of support
sometimes...
like luchador 👅
i wasn’t thinking abt black deck
ante one luchadoor...
or you could just get trib ante 1 then you don't have to think
plasma was the hardest one for me so i already kinda know what to expect
:D
basically serpent without chicot
the question was directed towards black deck gs
plasma was the hardest????? have you ever played nebula??????
plasma is harder than that
this is silly yes u are interacting w me and if u have no mult u value the money first and foremost and additionally u probably need ur hands to dig for the cards to make ur 5 card hands meaning u wanna throw away 5 at a time not 4
have you tried shrimply having your chips: mult ratio being 5.81x more?
didn’t see that
Have you even tried playing a stuntman
Ghost deck top 3 decks
i disagree
No comment
it's generally easier to get chips than mult
my gs streaks agree
literally all you need is like a somewhat decent amount of chips
on plasma stuntman and a few planets is enough to win
violet vessel....
that's statistically incorrect
plasma's got the chips to mult pivot thingy so theres that, in black i can apply all the strategies that normal decks have so itll be less painful
dr spectred said that on a video
xmult is
of course a multiplication so it's alot
brosky aint making it past ante 5 😭 💔
but most xmults are rare
oh god here we go
nah
chudstone
consider yourself an op 😤
bloodstone my goat
floodstone
i love bloodstone
Do i take dna?
#1 bloodstone glazer
yeah FUCK NEBULA
nebula's an artifact of pure hatred it'll be always be worse than to play plasma for me 💔
plasma's harder tho
i ALWAYS give it a chance, but that little son of a bitch ALWAYS ragebaits me
uhhh no
nebula is js a more excruciating experience
way to contradict your stuntman argument
idk i don't think i've ever lost gold stake on plasma
but i haven't played a whole lot of plasma so
ehh, id rather get rick
a) get dice
b) use it as an ante 5-8 option when you need lots of x mult and can play multiple heart flushes
c) smeared jonkler
do a 10 gs win streak on it
Brosky
10 gold stake wins consecutively is absurd for any deck to do, which you know
Yeah i like it with oops but not alone
but i can try
Aight thanks
Brooke did 10 consecutive wins on black deck gs
DNA is the best joker in the game, you're literally made of DNA
chicot believer be giving advice straight outta hell 😭 im crine bruh
I did 15 rotating and a bunch individually it can't be that bad right
chat should i pivot here?
THE PIVOT' THE PIVOT IS REAL
is this a litmus test
what is pivot?
@white zodiac ill give it a shot when im finished eating my cereal
wheres deck
(its 3:43am)
Never back down never pivot
ight
dude
suddenly changing the strategy in the middle of a run
Only cowards pivot
lotta seals
when you rotate your body while having one foot on the floor not move
is there a reason to
you seem pretty set rn i cant lie
well my 3oak is level 2 already
what's with ppl just staying up at 3am don't you have like work or school or something
ohhh
its not catching up w pair
timezones
its 9:30 for me rn
i have college mondays through thursday, then i have a half day on sunday
but like still, even at 3 am in a different time zone
ppl staying up at 3 am isn't a time zone thing
oh mbn
oh i thought you meant at this specific time sorry 💔
i love 3osk but u have so many pair levels already
4oak is closer but still i cant imagine ur at a lack of scoring atm
or will be at any moment soon
Ok guys, I hear about how high card is the best bet.
Does this apply to green stake or am I on my own here lol
id guess you could go for it with your kings and 3's
who told you to play high card lol
if it works on higher stakes, it works on lower stakes (except eternal-dependent strategies below black stake)
and all stakes
I know right lmao
cryptid is obsessed with jolly jokers for some reason
high card is powerful though
it's ehh
scaling is absolute piss but you'll get to use it with whatever chips ig
but you can like hold more gold cards and blue seals
it's like in the middle of the road
I see a lot in the community that high card builds go crazy or whatever in the early blinds.
by the way i did not take the trio here
good boy
not early on no
it's the opposite of that
they go crazy in the antes after you've already won
Yeah I thought so but idk why people say it
its very easy to ignore high cards when pairs just offer double the scaling tbh
unless u have lots of chips and mult already but even if u have like michel and blue or whatever you're still better off playing a flush until u level stuff up
1.5x the scaling
but yes your point stands
Like maybe people are like "durrr lol low stakes so easy bro you need single whatever bro so easy bro haha"
unless im running something like card sharp and i already had many hc levels
oh low stakes or low antes
low stakes are easily won by pairs
and high stakes are also won by pairs
@white zodiac free
all stakes are won by pairs
ok
I'm on magic deck green stake right now
All stakes are won exclusively by playing flush fives
this is a very good pair setup
Magic deck is one of 3 decks I still need to pass with green deck
an early mercury gives u access to enough levels to enable it immediately
oh
Ah
i'll just hold r this is too free it doesnt count
plus early crystal ball means blue seals are more powerful
I bought this the first round and lost 😭😭😭
dont take r1 blueprint brainstorms
theyre often sorta winmores - insanely busted but you dont need them
sometimes i just intentionally ignore them and my winrate doesnt really shift that much
you should play it out
I do this for the epic profile screenshot
its too late
runner on plasma + brainstorm it was a win
didnt find any gold stickers i didnt already have either
that's not how the game works 
like i said i didnt count it anyway
theres a really awesome bundle on humble bundle right now in my opinion
its labeled as indie fears
i wish i could share screenshots
I'm screwed, but UGH. THROWBACK is my favorite Joker
throw it back
le skull emoji
unfort my pc is in the gutter atm so all i have is my steam deck
which can do screenshots but like i havent bothered learning how
screwed on ante 1??
youll be fine
Nah but like, I'm totally gonna screw up ante 1 lmao
my favorite joker is supernova
Or not
that feeling when flush
my fav joker is uhh
idk
i have a soft spot for non common scaling jokers besides constellation though
as you can probably tell from my name my favorite joker is currently hallucination
constellation is uncommon
they just dont like it
Sooo I went for flush
it scales too easily
blud is a toilet
imo constellation should be 0.05x or 0.075x per planet
toilet blud those who knows 💀
no its plenty balanced
fwiw i like it
that sounds awful
I'm literally a toilet
cons is fine the way it is i tihnk
balatro update: youre in hell now
humanity is dead
blood is fuel
hell is full
Constellation has saved my stupid ass a few times
the only one thats as good as const is hologram
update to really mess with y'all:
mime now has a 1 in 2 chance to trigger
i fuckin hope not
Purposefully starving my yorick since ante 6 because I don't like him

rebate is prob the only very strong joker that is in need of a mandatory nerf
then why would you say that
you're a liar and a scumbag
but hologram u engage w the mechanics a lot more imo
funny
it would be funny if it did happen
Lmao I made it to ante 2
theres a mod called nopelatro that makes every joker have a 1/2 chance to trigger and makes oa6 a legendary joker
Constellation op
its much more interesting being forced to like add a polychrome stone card or whatever to ur deck when u normally wouldnt
well not forced
that sounds fucked up
I hate Bloodstone
but highly highly highly encouraged to
i hope that whatever they do with blue stake makes it more plausible to not play pairs
OKFG CREATE RAND9M JOKER AND ITS HANGING CHAD
Chad:
chad doesnt need a nerf imo
that's prob less on blue stake and more on new boss blinds
no matter what mr spectre says
Should I use my fool on judgement or nah
probably not
its powerful yeah but its sort of like a good pareidolia
versatile ≠ fundamentally overtuned
Chad should probably be like how it is in multiplayer tbh
did they
Hmmmmm'st
chad is generally the best retrigger
that kinda ruins the joker reference
re my pareidolia as a genre explanation from earlier
I like the way doc puts it
With chad you only need one interesting card to profit infinitely
yeah
Guys I need help with math, it’s easy but I’m so tired I don’t wanna do it lmao
Dusk should be common and chad should be uncommon imo
uh
is this bad?
a rarity change is generally a bad fix imo
if i have a gold seal now its 6 extra dollars in some rounds
Dusk costs a lot of money to make worth
update ideas:
space joker is now 1 in 3
hanging chad is now 3 retriggers, but an uncommon joker
baron is now 1.75x so its maybe more ok in gold stake
gold cards now give 2$
rebate now gives 10$, but only works on the first discard of the round
Yes
That's not necessarily overpowered but it's not really balanced either
making baron 1.75x would basically do nothing for it's balance within a8
Chad is wayyyyyy too versatile
it makes it tough to ignore but i dont think thats bad
gold card nerf is crazy, chad buff is crazy
Chad works in literally any build and is so easy to make happen whenever it's common and cheap
im just gonna ignore this one
shpace jonkler
well no, it doesn't
No matter what you're playing you can still get value out of gold seals
It's money gen
chad is for five card hand builds
well
chad works where basically any other retrigger joker would work
gold seals arent the most common of a thing
first u need a gold seal
what if i made more ideas
and also not straights
Gold seals, lucky cards, glass, polychrome
chad absolutely works well in straights, what
chad being good for glass is like
what if bloodstone was x2 but 1 in 4
Chad works for literally any hand type lol
thats worse than old bloodstone
which was 1/3 for 2x
yes factually it does secure the endgame
usually when i run a straight build its about just. playing straights and not really what cards are in them
too bad i aint taking it...
sometimes
generally i dont take like. lusty or somethign with runner
If I'm playing pairs or high card I still want chad for chips and enhancement retriggers
Even just with an empress that's +8 mult
what if bloodstone was x3 but 1 in 6
well chad isnt much of a scoring joker on higher stakes
Chad is like +20 chips earlygame if anything
its a value generator
Chad does basically everything lol
use it to retrigger your gold seals or lucky cards
It's super fun! But a little overtuned
also chad obviously doesnt work on every build
powerful yeah
like on baron mime
but to an extent that like i think is reasonable
its just taking up a joker slot at that point
You are not doing baron mime in gold stake
baron/mime is incredibly uncommon within a8 so thats not a great argument
ow
I can't imagine a build that wouldn't benefit from chad because the instant you get lucky cards or gold seals you're profiting
Even tarot gen with 8 ball and such
made a wrong argument and my body started to cramp up
first u need to get those cards
more update ideas:
8 ball is now a 1 in 3
hallucination is now a 1 in 3
spectral generators can now produce black hole/soul at the same rate they would normally appear at
abstract joker is now +4 mult per joker
mult cards are now +6 mult
blueprint/brainstorm can now only copy common/uncommon jokers
perkeo now creates 2 copies instead of 1
More likely than you'd think
a build that wouldnt benefit is a build that doesnt have those
and lucky cards are easy enough but also like
I got instant karma’d right there
I suppose
I mean, those things just happen and you're likely to have a chad-able thing
In your deck
it's common for a reason
If you're playing pairs you can chad that bonus card you made in ante 2 and now you're practically covered for chips
i dont like hanging chad
you can totally have a deck w lucky cards that never proc 20
okay I made my point wrong sorry
It's more for potential money gen than scoring
statistically improbable though
no lmao I'm not saying you were wrong i was just joking about it's rarity
yes i know
hm that gives me an idea for a challenge
I think uncommon chad isn't a great solution but it'd definitely work
That was my first thought but it's kinda sucky
how would it "work"
all it does is make it appear less often, doesnt change how often you take it when it appears
If chad were uncommon you'd just barely see it and that's lame
Making chad uncommon just gives it bbc synergy
chad just fits as a common thematically
nah
Challenge - Gambling Addiction
Begin with a full deck of lucky cards
Lucky cards are the only way you can make money
Oops! All 6s is banned
chad does fit as an uncommon
considering all other retriggers are uncommon
Imo there just needs to be more retrigger effects because there's like four not counting red seals
commons are generally applicable while uncommons are more specialized but reward leaning into them
supernova > bus
Hell no
There's five
the way i see it at least
bro said dusk twice
you said dusk twice
Hack
well
I meant hack
technically mime
Lol

Yes 5
Another loss.
5/150 jokers retrigger
one is bound to lose eventually
Damn you Flint! I had a Level 86 Pair going
the house always wins
idk u get one gold seal (hard to do) and now chad is a bit stronger than a golden joker
i dont see the point made here
I don't think photochad is a crutch
Screw that! I won 
Yes it is
Never
i should make a mod with all my terrible ideas
I mean it's just a powerful combo, if you don't take it you're silly
the point made is that this applies to everything that is on-score.
chad works incredibly well with every single on-score joker, which makes it overbearing relative to most other jokers in that niche
But then again im biased because i don't like photochad
Yeah thats right i fuckin said it
i got some cool ideas and some REAL bad ideas
i think photochad SUCKS
One death:
yeah but then money has like diminishing returns and stuff
its not like rebate where it instanstly gets u a ton of money
so rebate really isnt that much stronger than golden joker because of diminishing returns! /strawman
r/strawmanarguments should be a thing
Probably is
where we just make strawman arguments
ideas i think are cool:
xMult ride the bus but it only scales on Aces
bad ideas:
the EVIL plant
any balance change ideas i have
u need to build into chad so it then pays u back more but in a balanced way
I enjoy making strawman arguments and stating them as such because that's not my actual argument, it's just fun to use them
also in a 52 card deck
Sis i love strawman arguments because i am a deeply flawed hypocritical person
...?
i dont understand what youre saying here at all
ur probably not finding the gold seals every round
invest into it with deaths and gold seals and lucky cards and get rewarded w value
When the fajitas come out sizzlin
if its the jokers that are a problem then like
Luckies are easy to get, lots of money gen (also lucky cat to the moon)
Stones are easy to get, hard to draw, but that's 150 chips
Mult cards are extremely easy to get and that's +8 mult
Any editoned cards are rare but are super valuable with chad
Any on-score jokers like the suit based stones, business card, 8 ball, odd todd
idk
its hard for me to break down but
the runs with chad never feel too different compared to the ones without
outside of photo obv
or golden ticket that one can be a little overtuned
I feel like if a joker has me taking rental perishables more than not it's pretty damn good
Chad just provides so much value
Pretty consistently
i wonder how chad can be balanced
campfire my goat
real use for rentals
1 in 2 
retriggers the first and second card once
One trigger on the first two cards
its good but is it good in a way unreplicable by other jokers
chads fine as it is i think
maybe the multiplayer balancing
thats as far as id go though
I like multiplayer so much because it acts as normal on high card builds
imagine your chad just goes 
i would be only a little sad with chad changing
i would be so happy if rebate got nerfed
also i think photochad is special game design wise
update ideas:
wheel now has a 0 in 4 chance to trigger and also always hits foil (so nothing changes really)
its a very obvious combination
it feels so miserable taking rebate for the 5th time it's appeared in a row
i think its fine as is but the mp nerf isnt that big of a deal outside of specifically glass and photochad
I think chad and rebate are really fun "overpowered cards", and I always lean more towards leaving the balance as-is in discussion
But I wouldn't mind some changes lol
it feels very much of a "fuck you" to photochad
but not spelled out
If rebate were 3 dollars I'd be fine with that
it used to be
which is good! u want the player to find something and have that "woah holy shit" moment
Honestly, 4 dollars would make it still feel powerful and fun
and since its common thatll probably be it
I made it, wanna be the first person to post
rebate is nutty and I enjoy using it but yes it is way big
and that was with current blue stake and old gold stake.
reworked blue stake and not old gold stake would make $5 stupidly broken and $4 rebate still overtuned
The only other option is to buff jokers like to do list
i hope it's $4 with 3 discards
well no
It's a bad option
🙂
to-do list is doomed to be inconsistent as fuck and also really good
To do list is good
TDL is fine because econ doesnt need to be consistent
If strush was a hidden hand to do list would be a banger
Dude i was joking
my main issue with to do list is that i keep fucking seeing it like. ante 1 on strush
the best option is to upgrade other econ jokers and increase the price of everything
i hate eternal to do list tho
i aint picking that shit up i need immediate money
delete the sub people are just gonna use that for politics
no thanks
that sucks
yes i was joking lol
Lol no
what if bloodstone was x4 and 1 in 10
it wasnt very obvious tbf
it is now
does leaving work
lol
you're trading in your cards for some money
i mean it wouldnt work thematically
Trading card is one of the most powerful cards in the game payout or not
also because like. thats one discard for half a hanged man
it doesnt need to but 3 dollars is not a lot anyways
its GOOD but like one discard is a lot
rental trading card always worth
mainly it makes rental trading worth
Trading card is always worth no matter what stickers
true
just make a rare that gives a guaranteed hanged man
trading card is so good but i question its worth all the time
specifically in the endgame
make a joker that deletes every card in uour deck
absolutely not
Two Fucking Rental Trading Cards
"holy shit" -jollydude
Prolly
ill see like doc keep deleting cards but like
Cards shouldn't give specific other cards or else that kind of ruins the randomness of the game
Imo
at a point its better to just
I would not take an eternal trading card
this is a mistake really
Free deck thinning forever
eh idk about that
okay so
something like cartomancer except it can ONLY generate hanged men
its probably way too powerful so the drawback can be "cant sell the hanged men (you have to use them) and every hanged man costs 2$ to use"
the nice thing abt trading card is u can choose when you wanna use it
a lot of cases where eternal trading card will serve u well
Sometimes my deck is thin enough
Maybe
basically free ass deck fixing but also at a costly drawback
exactly. and if in ante 7 i decide the answer is "no" im not taking it
I don't want to die in Ante 10 because my flush five build has a slot full of nothing
Trading card won't get you to the point of seeing your whole deck by itself
yeah thats fair
okay but endless isnt real
You need some immolates or something
it didnt work 😔
if youre going for just ante 8 trading card too late isnt worth
its an extra side mode
it absolutely will
cutting almost half your deck allows for some stupid stuff
sure if you get it like. ante 1 maybe
ante 1 trading card has insane potential
but if you care at all abt endless its still worth id say
I think this should just remove two cards for two dollars because why are we even using hanged man
yep
usable jokers 🤮
ante 8 is what the actual game is
No joker in this game provides you a specific consumable
like, why not? its something like a better trading card technically
no thats what the game is balanced towards though
it can be a first idk
only one thing requires you to go into endless and that's petroglyph
Roguelike design kind of thrives off of things not directly relating to each other
No joker in balatro besides Perkeo provides negative consumables
You want emergent gameplay
you aren’t even required to even win the game
Like marble joker simply puts the stone cards into your deck instead of giving you infinite towers
...?
she blue on my print till i unlock condition
technically there are a couple explicit synergies
yeah but the option here is either waste a discard or make jokers with a use button
i dont like jokers with a use button personally
name them
basically, how is petroglyph requiring you to go endless
michel and cavendish, stencil and itself
The unlock condition
vagabond rahhh
Ohhhh
the unlock condition is getting to ante 12...
fr??
yes
wow
vagabond is goated
it's the only thing in the game which requires you to go into endless
These don't really count
why dont they count again
They're both the same joker just twice
Michel and Cavendish is more of an unlock-condition type thing imo
michel and cavendish are the same joker now?
how is gros micharl and cavendish the same joker
You can't have both ever
news to me
yes you can
you can
❌
i love forcing 4oak/f5 by ante 4
With showman?
theyre both just never in the pool
2 gros -> 1 dies -> cavendish in the pool
not even you can just ankh or invis
I see
showman works though
Cavendish is gros michel
showman doesnt add gros michel back into the pool once it's gone extinct
i thought if one dies they all die
is that incorrect
nope
Once gros michel dies all instances of gros michel in the shop pool become cavendish
Ok but they're explicitly supposed to be "the same"
And they don't work off of each other
you find two before then
I just accidentally won a game without playing a flush, I diluted my joker pool 😞
mf they literally arent
so one of these gives +15 the other gives x3
Cavendish isn't like "3x mult for every expired gros michael" because that's stupid
how in the hell are those the same
cavendish is "only appears if gros michel has expired"
