[robust lance]

Imma be deadass this is usually my wallet

[tawny bough]

hollup

rip noodles LOL

or wait

it might be to far into the run

with horrible econ

[vocal cedar]

just lost a god tier set up run because i got the fucking needle and wasn't paying attention im so mad at myself

[robust lance]

I rarely ever have more than 20 bucks cause I’m such a shopaholic

I enter a shop and it just empties immediately

[tawny bough]

5th ankh ive gotten this run this whole run is a troll

[potent tree]

we sacking jimbo right

[proper turtle]

.........

[tired kestrel]

Nah he's essential for emotional support

[robust lance]

All in on throwback.

[pale wolf]

balatrodle in 4 and its disappointing :c worst possible case
||it couldve been flash card, erosion, dagger, or pants, and i got the worst possible sequence||

[potent tree]

chicot helps with that a little more

[woven spire]

fibonacci out

[balmy ridge]

oh oh oh

[tidal anvil]

I agree

[balmy ridge]

i havent done balatrodle today

[tired kestrel]

nah man at LEAST jimbo is trying, chicot is just there

[sharp bobcat]

Can someone help me rq

[red thistle]

Sure.

[tidal anvil]

Just show us the picture

[sharp bobcat]

What do I do in this situation

[balmy ridge]

niiice (BALATRODLE SPOILERS)

[tawny bough]

I WAS DISTRACTED AND MISCLICKED OH MY GODDD

[balmy ridge]

sell chicot

[sharp bobcat]

Okay

[tidal anvil]

Trying to get naneinf?

[sharp bobcat]

Yeah

Not sure how to get there

[balmy ridge]

retcon serpent

showman for more copy jokers

[red thistle]

Go on till like 30 cryptids and serpent to naneinf.

[tidal anvil]

Get showman

[sharp bobcat]

Okay

[tired kestrel]

i think you need like 43ish cryptids to get there, just keep copying with perkeo and play real slow

[sharp bobcat]

So sell Chicot get showman get more cryptids and get serpent hopefully when I get retcon

[tawny bough]

yerp

[placid cave]

drink water, stay hydrated in your run

[tired kestrel]

Only sell chicot when you get showman

[red thistle]

Serpent is kind of overkill.

[tired kestrel]

Don't even need serpant but if you're a few cryptids short why not

[sharp bobcat]

Okay ty

[royal shale]

bets?

[red thistle]

Foiled.

[tidal anvil]

Holographic

[royal shale]

[balmy ridge]

win

[tidal anvil]

Typical wheel

[red thistle]

I thought that artstyle was from cas van de pol.

What is it.

[potent tree]

gee i sure hope this invis doesn't duplicate chicot...

or supernova for that matter.

[tidal anvil]

Then just sell the chicot?

[red thistle]

Chicot glitch. ‼️

[red thistle]

Waste of an invis.

[potent tree]

can you savescum with invis or no

[violet sparrow]

tbh folks i don’t like painted deck honestly

[red thistle]

Yea.

[tired kestrel]

whaat painted deck is the goat

[red thistle]

Why not.

[violet sparrow]

honestly 3 jokers feels

bad

[potent tree]

didn't work i think, it duplicated duo

[red thistle]

But it's 4.

[potent tree]

but still xmult better than +mult

[violet sparrow]

haven’t actually played it though this is just first thoughts looking at it

[tired kestrel]

But that blue seal, steel and gold value

[red thistle]

Probably the best shot.

[tired kestrel]

It's so consistant

That extra leeway lets you be more liberal with deckfixing

And discarding for that matter

[potent tree]

and then wheel hit the duo that was duplicated...epic

poly

[regal cobalt]

i FUCKING hate erratic deck

[red thistle]

It gets better and better.

[robust lance]

Simply get a lucky start

[acoustic kettle]

Double chicot is peak

[jagged valve]

I wanna die

[violet sparrow]

erratic deck basically lays out what suit you need to focus on honestly

[red thistle]

The only deck i really don't like is nebula.

[regal cobalt]

thats the fucking problem

i be getting ass after ass after straight ass

[tidal anvil]

That’s why the R button exists

[jagged valve]

Straight is ass I confirm

[sharp bobcat]

Do I sell chicot for mail and rebate my moneys getting low

[red thistle]

Woke propaganda.

[jagged valve]

9, 2, Face Cards are what I look for mainly in erratic

[tidal anvil]

What’s your money now?

[sharp bobcat]

114

[jagged valve]

Aces sometimes or 6 too

[sharp bobcat]

I've not found showman yet

[jagged valve]

What do yall consider a good erratic deck

[tidal anvil]

Sure, do it

[jagged valve]

Trib on abandoned I wanna kms

[red thistle]

9 2's.

[tired kestrel]

Yeah but erratic is quite busted honestly, it's cool when you have to work around bad rng and you have to play unique hands but it's usually just play 3-5oak and you win

[jagged valve]

Is there a limit

To erratic

[tired kestrel]

Playing a tough painted deck seed feels different

[jagged valve]

What's the worst deck

[red thistle]

How so.

[jagged valve]

?

I'm asking

[pale wolf]

The deck that should be removed from the game is nebula
The hardest deck is black deck

[jagged valve]

I agree Nebula is worst

Boring

[gusty blaze]

Dawg

[pale wolf]

can at least get supernova

[robust lance]

Credit card in spleen trust me

[jagged valve]

🥀🥀

[red thistle]

Are you asking how insane erratic can be? Well some people get 17 of one card sometimes and there's the 52 10 of spades seed but that's glitched.

[tired kestrel]

Black deck is easily the hardest and most rng, as for least favourite prolly checkered honestly

[pale wolf]

oh I just realized that I answered a completely different question

dumby

[tidal anvil]

Walkie talkie best joker???

[pale wolf]

The worst deck that erratic can start with is a base deck

erratic always improves

[regal cobalt]

how many fucking times broooo

[red thistle]

There's actually 2 seeds like that and one of them has a walkie talkie in the first round shop.

[sharp bobcat]

Do I sell dna and get invis?

[regal cobalt]

i be already doing ts with ghost deck

a million times

[red thistle]

I disagree.

[potent tree]

guys if boss is AA can i sell chicot and try for another sticker? pair is level 24

[regal cobalt]

with erratic deck i have to do it a whole nother million

[hasty harness]

i wouldnt tbh cuz that nat negative trubidor looking mad nice

[robust lance]

Challenge deck cause it doesn’t give anything

[tired kestrel]

You could start with a deck that cannot play straights very well and isn't consistant enough for 3oak

[red thistle]

All cards ratioed slightly different, like 5 cards of A K Q J 10 9 and the rest are like 3's.

[sharp bobcat]

So I don't get invis

[red thistle]

3's of all other ranks.

[pale wolf]

That's better for high straights

[hasty harness]

u probably could

[pale wolf]

if the card rank #s are staggered throughout the deck then it just means it's more on its way to a three of a kind build with strength

[potent tree]

looks like we riffraffin' this one

[red thistle]

High straights are terrible.

[pale wolf]

?? only because of how unreliable they are to draw on a base deck?

if you change the base deck then the probabilities of drawing the hands change too

[robust lance]

If straights are good then high straights are better cause they’re higher value

Think about it…

[potent tree]

random poly credit card in shop (hell naw)

[tired kestrel]

I mean

It's 1 buck for 1.5x mult

honestly not bad

[potent tree]

i've already gold stickered

[red thistle]

They're unreliable in general, i still think the worst erratic deck can't just be the base deck.

[potent tree]

also, do i sack the non poly duo for matador sticker

[tired kestrel]

Oh you're later in the game

[gusty blaze]

Well this is an interesting question.
Every deck has their niche cases.
Red deck for cards like yorick and burning joker
Abandoned deck for easier straights
And for nebula deck it’s an easier way to get observatory, but at the cost of consumable slot is meh to say the least. Maybe rebalance it so planet packs cost a bit more?

[tired kestrel]

Worth

[pale wolf]

also, your scenario is still better for three of a kind, pairs, flushes

[tired kestrel]

getting any better is unlikely

[tidal anvil]

LETS GO GAMBLING

[pale wolf]

if you used the lower cards to be more represented then it would be worse for pairs but still better for 3oak

The rank of the three of a kind doesn't matter as much as just being able to have it

[red thistle]

I guess so.

What a boring answer though.

[pale wolf]

its sad but also good

you cant "low roll" on erratic relative to, say, anaglyph

[tired kestrel]

I honestly think that a worse deck can be made but that would have to be combined with a bad seed too

[placid cave]

how do you survive a round of blue stake black deck needle

[pale wolf]

certainly could be a worse deck for the given options presented yeah

[potent tree]

yippee riffraff and matador stickers

[tired kestrel]

One that cannot with with pairs and 2 pair or sm shit

[robust lance]

You can’t

[red thistle]

Have a good build why?

[pale wolf]

theoretically, but not realistically, you could have a erratic deck with no hearts and the only cards that appear are Bloodstone lusty and sun

[placid cave]

thats helpful, thanks

[tired kestrel]

Get lucky

[pale wolf]

sorry not sun what's wrong with me

[red thistle]

Aare you going to present your situuation or not.

[tired kestrel]

And play really slow

[pale wolf]

Anything but sun

[gusty blaze]

CASE AND POINT HAHAHA

[tired kestrel]

Black deck is REALLY inconsistant you will have to get a bit lucky

[pale wolf]

A general question is provided with a general answer
scoring

[placid cave]

Didn’t say I’m playing one? Just asking a general question

[pale wolf]

do you mean ante 2 needle

[red thistle]

Not really helpful in practice.

[pale wolf]

Wait why are you even asking about black deck specifically

Needle is the same on black deck as any other deck

You still get one hand

[placid cave]

Oh I forgot that

[red thistle]

I guess the circumstance on black deck is in your favor.

Compared to other decks.

[pale wolf]

yeah the situation might be worse just because it's harder

but like the minus one hand isn't actually making needle worse

[placid cave]

Well I can make an argument about econ

[royal shale]

bets?

[tidal anvil]

LETS GO GAMBLING

[pale wolf]

holographic madness

[red thistle]

Foiled.

[placid cave]

Nope Foil

[potent tree]

[royal shale]

Foil!

[potent tree]

damn muntathar is a psychic

[red thistle]

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO.

[tired kestrel]

I can't believe i thought raised fist was bad

[pale wolf]

it was the second most likely option

[potent tree]

ANTE 1 BUS

free win!!!

[tidal anvil]

Another joker that benefits pair builds

[pale wolf]

raised fist is awesome

i lov fist

[robust lance]

Curse of full face final draw

[pale wolf]

I only wish it was uncommon

[red thistle]

Nah i don't think so.

[white zodiac]

another 8 hand cap obby licks

[pale wolf]

if it was uncommon it would be 3x base chips into mult and also give bbc value for your fist

[red thistle]

It can vary heavily and the highroll isn't that significant in the grand scheme of things.

Common is pretty fine.

[pale wolf]

no flush house

L

[white zodiac]

I forgor

streak numero 6

[red thistle]

Same.

[royal shale]

bets?

[pale wolf]

holographic madness

[tidal anvil]

[robust lance]

No

[red thistle]

Could you imagine a SECOND foil?

[pale wolf]

negative holo madness

[royal shale]

[tidal anvil]

Yessir

[red thistle]

It was but a pipe dream unfortunately.

[balmy ridge]

wait

what

im

[balmy ridge]

did this conversation not just happen?

i read this, went on a walka nd came back and its the exact same messages

sent a mionute ago

[royal shale]

I post bets every time that I get a wheel on specifically my gamblemaxxing file

[balmy ridge]

oh

im not crazy

[royal shale]

I've sent it a lot more than twice

[balmy ridge]

[royal shale]

not thaaaat often cuz of blue seal

[balmy ridge]

trench

ohh bridget pfp

based

[white zodiac]

oh of course

[pale wolf]

we scum those

[royal shale]

esp since I buy a lot more of non-arcana packs so I see more more cards, which means more seals

[balmy ridge]

check her deck

[tired kestrel]

Bust worthy lineup

[balmy ridge]

lol

message got automodded

[tired kestrel]

Aw cmonn you're taunting me now

[white zodiac]

bruh

[potent tree]

i ended up busting because of pillar and no planet levels. oh well

[red thistle]

With mime aswell? Pain.

[royal shale]

bets?

[unreal iron]

so debuffed wild cards do NOT count as a flush

this is BULLSHIT

[red thistle]

Trust it's going to foil.

[tidal anvil]

[vocal cedar]

I just got four fingers and shortcut in the same run

HELL YEAH

[gusty blaze]

Foil pants

[balmy ridge]

[robust lance]

Polychrome hologram

[pale wolf]

is that gg? kinda wanna take it for a hand to see

[red thistle]

Makes sense because their ability is to be all other suits but it got debuffed.

[royal shale]

[tidal anvil]

Yessir

[pale wolf]

they do for their original suit

[white zodiac]

i forgor
is copying burger and cert a quick time event like marble and cert

[royal shale]

bets

[pale wolf]

i believe so

[royal shale]

yea

[potent tree]

[white zodiac]

similar to debuffed glass cards not counting as x2 mult

[tidal anvil]

[gusty blaze]

[pale wolf]

cert is the in-round one that always gets to go second

[red thistle]

To foil or to not foil.

That is the question.

[near copper]

does anyone have any leftover jens almanac files

asking for a friend

[royal shale]

Foil!

[pale wolf]

#⚙・modding-general

[white zodiac]

awesome

[near copper]

ok

[tidal anvil]

Damn

[unreal iron]

i literally lost a decent flush run because of that

[red thistle]

I'm so good at this.

I should gamble irl.

[unreal iron]

it just so happened i had a wild 9 to play with my diamonds

but nooooooo

[white zodiac]

flush run and decent in the same sentence

[pale wolf]

decent
flush run
oxymoron

[unreal iron]

its debuffed

[royal shale]

if you're gonna gamble with money, learn to count cards and play blackjack and if you arent gonna commit time to that then don't gamble

[unreal iron]

greedy joker is actually bait dude

[red thistle]

I was joking because gambling is extremely stupid.

[tired kestrel]

oh fuck

[royal shale]

good

[red thistle]

Quite literally the casino is rigged for you to lose.

[tired kestrel]

ig i take yea?

[royal shale]

I know, I just didn't know if you knew

[latent egret]

[potent tree]

[hazy agate]

[robust lance]

Get two smeared jokers to make all suits the same

[hazy agate]

@grok is this true

[robust lance]

No

[tired kestrel]

I'm actually so fucking pissed i could've fluked a stake on black deck

[blissful fog]

First game of the day... feelin good

[hazy agate]

dude i fucked up by playing the wrong hand and lost a triboulet run TODAY stop complaining we get it

[tidal anvil]

Good job!

[tired kestrel]

No you don't get it this is black deck

Rng hell

1 loss means another hour of black deck

[blissful fog]

Only gold stake left and I'm done with abandoned deck lesgo

[tired kestrel]

Istg

[dry remnant]

bro what is this ass

[tired kestrel]

RELEASE MEEE

[tidal anvil]

What about it?

[dry remnant]

this game hasn't give me a single good scoring joker in 6 antes

[tidal anvil]

The boss blind?

[blissful fog]

Barely any scoring jokers ig

[dry remnant]

it's just polychrome econs over and over

[blissful fog]

Ig the 3 polychrome jokers ain't enough lmao

[heavy heron]

…well then

it seems i’ve underestimated the power of red card

[potent tree]

bets?

[dry remnant]

someone pleas play this seed, its pain

[tidal anvil]

[heavy heron]

what seed?

[tidal anvil]

Ah, I see, sorry then

[potent tree]

sadly correct

[heavy heron]

you want me to play with your seed?

[blissful fog]

Is the baseball card even doing anything?

[fading cobalt]

Free win

[atomic trout]

All 14 Hands used... I'm so gonna lose.

[tidal anvil]

I’m like 0 for 12 on straight wheel triggers

[dry remnant]

nope

[blissful fog]

Damn

[heavy heron]

send the seed when you finish

[dry remnant]

C47KVXS8, do it gold stake

[heavy heron]

[dry remnant]

i was rolling and didn't find any uncommons to take

[dry remnant]

ghost

[heavy heron]

bet

[blissful fog]

Unfortunate

[potent tree]

bets?

[blissful fog]

Imma try and see if I can beat yo seed

[dry remnant]

bet

[tidal anvil]

[robust lance]

BANANA SLAMMA

[potent tree]

once again correct

[fading cobalt]

Polychrome acrobat

[fading cobalt]

Oh

[potent tree]

i nearly got wall'd acro saved

bets?

[tidal anvil]

[solid garden]

[potent tree]

0/3 this run

sad.

[solid garden]

next time it's poly

trust

[tidal anvil]

I’m 0/12

[solid garden]

never stop taking wheels

[proper turtle]

lost that, luck not on my side today

[tidal anvil]

Did you play two pair before?

[potent tree]

i got gimped by big blind...

ah well, gambling continues

[pale wolf]

both flush and pair are level 2

i think i go pair

[potent tree]

always pairmaxx

[red thistle]

1 square joker and it's over.

[proper turtle]

yep, score was 190, 010 of smth like that

[pale wolf]

its a little late for square but id try

[vocal rose]

ante 6

[red thistle]

Shit you're right.

[proper turtle]

I was so close to having the green stake on checkered

[potent tree]

dna and the mouth should not coexist.

[tidal anvil]

Psychic and Sqaure joker should not exist

[vocal rose]

dna is optional

[viral raft]

X2 mult for a flush is just useless lol

like the duo is better and it just asking you play a pair

almost all Xmult jokers can make x2 mult

[gray plaza]

Is this enough to beat ante 32? (Bean bug for 15 handsize, took 3 ectos down to 9, 5 copy jokers + DNA)

[viral raft]

above ante 29 isn't nan?

or am i wrong?

[bronze linden]

39 i think

[robust lance]

Half joker carry

[gray plaza]

?

[viral raft]

oh ok

[gray plaza]

I'm confused what you are asking

[viral raft]

mb is ante 39 the one who requires nan

[gray plaza]

Yes

I'm trying to get past Ante 32 first

[viral raft]

cool

[gray plaza]

Is that enough to do so?

[tired kestrel]

FREEDOM

FINALLY

I cannot fuck this up surely

[viral raft]

good luck

[tired kestrel]

Wow ok

The game also wants this garbage to be over

[viral raft]

don't waste to much money

[brave goblet]

Zodiac shenanigans

[gray plaza]

?

[viral raft]

imo yes

try to copy adn first then one shot with baron and mime

[fervent plover]

guys, are planets cards on spot buff or permanent?

[atomic trout]

At this rate. I made it to Ante 12. Plasma-less

[tidal anvil]

Permanent

[tired kestrel]

permenant

[fervent plover]

nice

[eternal minnow]

Am i galaxy brain rn

[atomic trout]

Temporarily. When you lose

[tidal anvil]

For the run, that’s is

[eternal minnow]

Is this, worth it?

[atomic trout]

For now

[viral raft]

if you have low chips yeah

like no levels

[atomic trout]

Eventually you'll have to drop off chips for Mult

[fervent plover]

so guys once more doubt, a flush can contain any 4 cards of same unit?

cause i did 5 cards of heart of diff numbers

[eternal minnow]

Yeah im at level 1 across board rn

[fervent plover]

did not apply

[pale wolf]

pretty insane that i couldnt scale enough

[tidal anvil]

Same suit, and it needs five cards

[pale wolf]

I grow more and more convinced that economy Jokers are necessary

[atomic trout]

Try this seed. 🥑

[hasty harness]

wish me luck guys imma attempt gold stake jokerless

[eternal minnow]

Flush is any 5 cards of the same suit

[hasty harness]

i completed C++ and ante 39 so i wanted a new challenge

[fervent plover]

i did 5 hearts of diff numbers, did not apply. played the high hand

[atomic trout]

Ante 39

[pale wolf]

then it wasn't what you thought it was

lol

[viral raft]

same deck?

[hasty harness]

it isnt actually that hard at least with the bean bug and the right vouchers

[fervent plover]

srry?

[atomic trout]

Same deck

[eternal minnow]

Maybe 1 was a diamond on accident

[pale wolf]

You weren't playing the cards you thought you were playing if you played five hearts and it didn't count as a flush

[tidal anvil]

When I say 5 cards

[viral raft]

ok

[tidal anvil]

I mean the amount of cards

[atomic trout]

Luck was on my side

[pale wolf]

One of them had to have been a diamond or something

[viral raft]

i'll play it and then i dm you

[tidal anvil]

Not the literal number 5

[fervent plover]

yea, 5 cards.

ill check again on the next rnd

[pale wolf]

turn on high contrast cards so you can't confuse the suits for each other

[atomic trout]

Completionist++ sounds Insane

[eternal minnow]

See

Flush

[tidal anvil]

Apparently it was hearts

[pale wolf]

That's a flush? what's the issue

[tidal anvil]

It should’ve been obvious even without high contrast

[pale wolf]

what are you confused about

[tidal anvil]

Greed is the one having trouble

[pale wolf]

ik

oh wait

yeah you're right for some reason I thought it was the same person

[eternal minnow]

I was showing them an example of a flush

[balmy ridge]

dagger, golden joker and the order stickered :DDD

[fading cobalt]

Fuck the arm

[tidal anvil]

Did you rip it off?

[fading cobalt]

Huh?

[tidal anvil]

Your arm

[fading cobalt]

Yep

[gray plaza]

So I can play the other blinds?

[tidal anvil]

Understandable

[fading cobalt]

Holy

[hasty harness]

how much handsize do u have

[gray plaza]

@hasty harness

DNA gives extra

[heavy heron]

@dry remnant i did the seed, i recorded it if you wanna see lemme upload it on yt or smth

[hasty harness]

wait so u have 9 handsize rn

[gray plaza]

Yeah, I had 15 from bean bug and took 3 ectos

[dry remnant]

i would love to see your take on it

[hasty harness]

u could try bean bugging again on ante 39

[dry remnant]

plus it might give me some insight on how to win more

[hasty harness]

i mean

32

[gray plaza]

That's my aim

I need more money though

[hasty harness]

to put in perspective

this was my run

with the bean bug

[potent tree]

bets? (yes only yorick can become enchanted)

[gray plaza]

But my current setup should be enough for these blinds right

[hasty harness]

2 ectos total

[pale wolf]

enhanced*

[hasty harness]

so ur at effectively 14 handsize

[tidal anvil]

[hasty harness]

i think so?

[fading cobalt]

Stuntman and ectoplasm enjoyers

[hasty harness]

not 100% sure tho

[tidal anvil]

Impossible

[fervent plover]

ok mb, the flush works

[gray plaza]

Should I try rerolling for Serpent and do a full hand of gold to test?

[fervent plover]

1 card might have been srong then

[hasty harness]

well either way youll win if u do serpent but i wouldnt test it like that tbh

because you'll miss out on a lot of money

[gray plaza]

So what's a good way to test without dying if I fail

[dry remnant]

did u find the seed hard or do i just suck

[gray plaza]

A calc?

[hasty harness]

yeah u could use one

[fervent plover]

so i did the small blind, it told ill get call cards in the next shop free. but did not

shld i have skipped to get tht?

[gray plaza]

Idk any Balatro calcs lol

[heavy heron]

@dry remnant is it the seed that starts with a shop 1 jupiter and hanging chad?

[wooden aspen]

Guys whats the point of going lategame balatro

[tidal anvil]

By the way, click run info to see how to make the poker hands

[heavy heron]

i hope i input it correctly

[gray plaza]

Fun

[hasty harness]

might as well just ball out and test 😈

[dry remnant]

i believe so yes

[hasty harness]

i think youd live

[wooden aspen]

Do i get stuff thio

Tho

[heavy heron]

but no, i did not find it hard; that's not to say you suck but you'll see how i played it

[fervent plover]

i did, thts why i was so confused. i learned poker trhgh this game, so i was confused whether it was a bug or was there a pre-requisite

[tidal anvil]

You have to not skip to use the skip tag

[heavy heron]

once it's uploaded i'll show ya

[wooden aspen]

No besides that

[heavy heron]

it came out to like 2 gb LOOLLL

[gray plaza]

Thanks

[wooden aspen]

Like new achievements or jokers

[fervent plover]

i did not skip, i played, did not get vouchers and card, free

[gray plaza]

Possibly, if you don't already have them unlocked

[tidal anvil]

You might have had two or more cards of same rank and suit

[thick mountain]

If you’re on PC there’s a mod called Fantoms Preview that calculates in round.

[wooden aspen]

6767

[heavy heron]

@dry remnant but there's a very high likelihood you made a series of unlucky choices ante 1 and 2 and it didn't let you take off the way i did-- again once it's uploaded i'll show you

[calm epoch]

jumpscare

[pale wolf]

goood

[tidal anvil]

I would take it

[pale wolf]

bad skip but

good hit

[gray plaza]

I will always take this

[fervent plover]

might have. so far im having so much fun

wanna unlock better decks thgh

[dry remnant]

so i just suck lol, well I'm interested to see it

[fervent plover]

how do i unlock?

[calm epoch]

well, neg frees are always a take

[tidal anvil]

Just play the game

[gray plaza]

Some can be actively harmful to a build

This one is not

[thick mountain]

Doesn’t justify blind skip though.

[heavy heron]

you don't suck, it happens

[calm epoch]

ok wait nvm ur right

[heavy heron]

i die a lot too trust me

[calm epoch]

well, then its just free money

[heavy heron]

it'll take approximately 10 mins to upload is my guess

[thick mountain]

Curious what you mean by actively harmful.

[wooden aspen]

It lowk does

Ceremonial dagger

Temperance

Etc etc

[sharp bobcat]

Guys how many cryptids do I need for nan inf

[thick mountain]

No I understand taking it but doesn’t justify taking the gamble.

[uncut bison]

would you take negative burglar when you have merry andy and mail in rebate for example

[wooden aspen]

Like 67

[dry remnant]

tbf i can see me own imporvnent in the last couple days, I'm getting a lot better so hopefully this C++ doesnt take toooo long

[wooden aspen]

No it does

[sharp bobcat]

Bruh

[heavy heron]

that's kinda funny this discussion is happening considering i had to skip like 4 blinds to win the seed you sent me

to savor glass and such

[sharp bobcat]

Like actually tho

[dusky cloak]

which one do i take

[thick mountain]

Oh yeah anti synergy. For sure.

[heavy heron]

it won't, you're doing good

[tidal anvil]

If it’s rental eternal but it doesn’t help you score, then it’s just draining money from you.

[gray plaza]

Imagine a natneg ceremonial dagger that's eternal and rental, and you forget to move it (happened to me, but a rather extreme case)

[dry remnant]

i mean u gotta do what u gotta do to get to ante 8

[heavy heron]

yup

[sharp bobcat]

How many cryptids for nan inf?

[dry remnant]

I've already finished 1 gold stake and got 2 decks on orange

[heavy heron]

that's why saying "never [action]" in a roguelike is not a good rule to follow

[heavy heron]

that's pretty good!

[potent tree]

bets? i'm on ante 8 and yorick x7 so i'm almost assured to sticker this

[thick mountain]

I get that. Anti synergy was just obvious I thought maybe you had some other take I hadn’t thought of.

[calm epoch]

foil

[tidal anvil]

[woven spire]

what is this sinergy😭

[heavy heron]

my gameplay may not teach you a lot honestly then, because the choices i make require somewhat significant experience to understand why i do what i do and copying parts of it without full understanding may not help you

but again, you'll see

[potent tree]

wow, you got it

[calm epoch]

PFFF

[hasty harness]

balatro should add a everything pack where anything can spawn in it so i can gamble more

🙏

[tidal anvil]

Impossible

[calm epoch]

im the wheel whisperer 🙏

1/12 right there boy

[dry remnant]

it's decent for only playing for 15 days, my issue is more just the starting couple on antes and knowing what jokers to take and packs to open. that's what messes me up

[thick mountain]

Lol wut

[hasty harness]

hologram and erosion 💔

[steel chasm]

I did the funny

[woven spire]

ik.

[dry remnant]

that's always a lesson to be learnt in every run do I'm sure I'll see something

[heavy heron]

@dry remnant what hand type did you go for in that seed?

[potent tree]

wait

i think manacle glitched my run??

[hasty harness]

best possible hex

[calm epoch]

e?

[fading cobalt]

a deck that makes me use math? I'd rather kill myself

[dry remnant]

ummm i believe it was 4 of a kind

[hasty harness]

did u perchance have 2 chicots

[potent tree]

no i had paint brush voucher and juggler joker for 10 total handsize, ante 7 manacle reduced to 9 and it's still 9 (my juggler is eternal)

[heavy heron]

ahh interesting

i'll get back to you in 5-10 mins

[fading cobalt]

If it was a natural polychrome Jimbo I would've said it was worth it

[potent tree]

oh wait

[dry remnant]

okik

[hasty harness]

weird

[potent tree]

raggedy andy

i forgot he removes 1 handsize

my bad...

[hasty harness]

all g lol

[potent tree]

anyways, back to poorick scaling!!

[sharp bobcat]

Fouler

[hasty harness]

hi

[hasty harness]

andy + rick is money

[sharp bobcat]

How many cryptids do I need for nan inf

[hasty harness]

u need like 44 or a lilttle more red seal steel kings so if u get serprent and do shenanigans like that it changes # of cryptids required

[tired kestrel]

3 pants

[thick mountain]

Like 80+ kings in hand or something like that depending on joker line up.

[sharp bobcat]

I have like 60 red seal steel kings I have 40 cryptids

[woven spire]

gambling.

[thick mountain]

You don’t necessarily need serpent though.

[balmy ridge]

just need some boots to complete the fit

[hasty harness]

yeah id get serpent to be safe but assuming ur jokers r good

u can probably naninf

[sharp bobcat]

Could I just do it rn ?

[balmy ridge]

definetely enough if your goal is just to naneinf

[hasty harness]

probably

[balmy ridge]

i'm like 80% sure you can, could aswell wait for serpent if you want to make sure

[sharp bobcat]

I'm sending it

[hasty harness]

yeah this and u only have 2 copy jokers

wait nvm @sharp bobcat i dont think u can naninf

[balmy ridge]

i did tell him to look for showman

[hasty harness]

hes not on plasma

[balmy ridge]

duck smoking and shaking his head gif

oh

[sharp bobcat]

OMG

[balmy ridge]

oh shit yeah no plasma you can't

[sharp bobcat]

IM DONNENEE

[hasty harness]

💀

[balmy ridge]

blud is donnene

[sharp bobcat]

I have 85 kings wish me luck

[potent tree]

yippee andy sticker, yorick x10

[vale wharf]

Is stuff like MIR not banned here?

[hasty harness]

nice

close to c++

?

[latent egret]

mir ?

[potent tree]

15 away now

[potent tree]

mail in rebate

[tired kestrel]

Unfortunately couldn't find any but at least i won the run

[vale wharf]

Mail in rebate

[hasty harness]

gl :p

[tired kestrel]

Now for gold stake

[potent tree]

lmao nice mod

[tired kestrel]

Ye it's great i made it myself

[potent tree]

let me out!! let me out!!!!!

[hasty harness]

guys i think he might hate violet vessel

[tired kestrel]

welp it's a wee run this time

[balmy ridge]

what did he mean by this?

[sharp bobcat]

I got e183 bruhhhh

[fervent plover]

guys. this one if i dont skip, i get joker in shop for free yea?

[hasty harness]

can u take it tho?

[tidal anvil]

No

[hasty harness]

its rental and black deck

[balmy ridge]

wee is op

[tired kestrel]

It's too valuable to not take

[balmy ridge]

i thhhiiiink it's worth

[fervent plover]

but its not part of skip condition.

[balmy ridge]

although less scaling due to black deck-1 hand

[tidal anvil]

You have to skip to get free foil in next shop

[balmy ridge]

yes it is??

[hasty harness]

okay just saying idk tho since less scaling cuz black deck and less money since less hands and no interest cuz rental

i think it'd just leave the run dead

[fervent plover]

but usually it mentiones. if skipped u get this

[hasty harness]

but we'll see :p

[fervent plover]

like the gold one for ex

[tidal anvil]

By definition those things requires you to skip blinds

[balmy ridge]

yes

[tidal anvil]

To get value from them

[balmy ridge]

when you press the big red Skip button

the next joker you would see regularly in the shop becomes foil and free

[fervent plover]

so all benifits below the blind, to get i have to skip the blind?

[balmy ridge]

yes

[fervent plover]

i see

[tidal anvil]

Yes

[balmy ridge]

but usually you almost never skip

it can be tempting but rarely worth it

[fervent plover]

so the con is u dont get money if u dont skip right?

[tidal anvil]

Yes

[balmy ridge]

more to it than that but yeah, basically

[fervent plover]

even if u have no cards and stuff?

[unreal iron]

or a whole shop

[tired kestrel]

wow i am alive?

[fervent plover]

a whole shop, damn

[tidal anvil]

Yes

[hasty harness]

u dont get money, miss a shop, and u dont get to scale jokers during that blind

[hasty harness]

i stand corrected half joker clutch

🤑

[gray plaza]

Good thing I didn't

[hasty harness]

lol good thing

[gray plaza]

So serpent it is until I get Bean on A32 and replace DNA with it

[hasty harness]

yup

[gray plaza]

Then copy Burglar for a bunch of attempts at it

[hasty harness]

mhm

[cold finch]

holy peak

[hasty harness]

u could also get reserve parking instead of dna

to farm money until then

[gray plaza]

I'll probably stop when I have 5 hands remaining if it doesn't land again cause I need every joker I have

[balmy ridge]

loversmaxxing?

[hasty harness]

on all the burglar hands

[gray plaza]

Hmm

I mean I found an ecto in shop and DNA 4 rerolls after not sure if I'll be that lucky again

Also I need more good cards

[hasty harness]

after ante 32 u wont need dna

its just serpent farm

[hasty harness]

and if ur gonna serpent farm

until ante 32

u wont need dna

youll need more money to roll down for dna

i mean

bean

not dna

💀

[balmy ridge]

should make more gold

[gray plaza]

So sell it now or after this boss blind

[gray plaza]

I know, that's what I want

[hasty harness]

i would sell it if u find reverse parking

[cold finch]

ancient civilization over here

[hasty harness]

reverse parking PRINTS money

for u

think about it

[cold finch]

AND A SMEAR

[hasty harness]

u have 5 copy jokers right

[gray plaza]

Yeah

[hasty harness]

so thats like 20+ hands

[tired kestrel]

nope i got too poor anyway

[hasty harness]

u can copy parking for 19 hands

and then win on the last hand

thats tons of money

lol

[balmy ridge]

cucked by big blind 💀

[tired kestrel]

I passed on 1 mult joker and i couldn't find anything like ffs

[hasty harness]

yeah figured

[gray plaza]

Hmm

[hasty harness]

rip

[balmy ridge]

i'm jealous

[heavy heron]

@dry remnant https://youtu.be/8bmg6ozfg_c?si=P8bZ7elujtDRnF3Y

here it is

[tidal anvil]

Get idol next

[heavy heron]

my gameplay of that seed

[tired kestrel]

No mult in 7 rounds

[gray plaza]

Well since RP is a common I'll keep DNA into this next Serpent for more gold

Then reroll at that shop

[hasty harness]

ur choice but pretty sure reverse just makes 1k+ a round lol

[balmy ridge]

dude why is ur screen shaking so much? is there a fucking earthquake happening??

[heavy heron]

it's the normal screenshake

[balmy ridge]

?!

[hasty harness]

i was watching a balatro video earlier

and they were playing on 1x speed

💔

i forgot how slow it looks

[cold finch]

my deck is NOT fixed my brohemian

[balmy ridge]

no fucking way

[hasty harness]

in 1x speed

[balmy ridge]

thats crazy news

i can't believe it

1x speed thats so insane oh my god this is truly newsworthy

[calm epoch]

guys theres a dna in the second shop i encountered and i have 14 dollars, should i buy it (the only joker i have rn is misprint)

(also anaglyph deck)

[hasty harness]

real question is what stake r u on and do u have anything worth copying with dna

[balmy ridge]

do you have anything worth copying in deck

if so

sure

[calm epoch]

well not yet but theres also arcana pack so im pretty sure i can get either a gold or steel

[cold finch]

Wheel (i do have dice) just gave me poly 2x in a row

[lyric shore]

not good enough

[hasty harness]

its up 2 u but i would probably pass on it

[balmy ridge]

what deck are you on

[lyric shore]

too expensive early

[hasty harness]

lol

[hasty harness]

anaglyph they said

[balmy ridge]

oh

no dont take it

[cold finch]

sold smeared for space

[calm epoch]

anaglyph deck (white stake since first run), im at shop past ante1's big blind

[hasty harness]

honestly i really want a voucher for spectral cards to appear in shops but ig it removes too much of ghost decks gimmick

[balmy ridge]

omen globe

[hasty harness]

(exception of soul)

[hasty harness]

thats only in arcana packs tho

[calm epoch]

omen globe gives spectrals in arcanas

[balmy ridge]

yes

it's the closest you're ever going to get without playing ghost deck

obviously

[lyric shore]

appearing in shops is just power creep

[balmy ridge]

the whole point of ghost is for spectrals to appear in shops

why would

nvm

[hasty harness]

yeah ik i just wish lol

it would be funny

[balmy ridge]

no it wouldn't

it would be stupid and pointless

[balmy ridge]

it would entirely negate the existence of ghost deck

[hasty harness]

ghost deck best deck tho

🙏

[lyric shore]

maybe not that extreme

grabber doesnt invalidate blue

[hasty harness]

ghost deck ankh strats is just fun

[hasty harness]

also i mean like u could just never see the voucher for that run yk

but i still get ur point

[balmy ridge]

resident sleeper

[lyric shore]

yea its a bad idea

[balmy ridge]

yes andrew

cool pfp

[hasty harness]

im balling my tro rn

[balmy ridge]

im balling my eyes out we are not the same

[hasty harness]

im balling my eyes out as i am balling my tro

we are not the same 🤫

[hazy agate]

im eyeing up your balls we are not the same

[balmy ridge]

:3

hotline miami

great game

[hasty harness]

😭

[balmy ridge]

yeah i can read the message myself

don't need you to send a screenshot of it 10 seconds later

[hasty harness]

sorry we're balatro players we cannot read

the plant go brrr

[hazy agate]

we can only count

[balmy ridge]

12345

6 7

[hazy agate]

[balmy ridge]

now i know my abcs

what you know about 61

siiiix waaaann

[hazy agate]

new big meme

[balmy ridge]

siiiiix waaaan

no im serious

its massive

[hazy agate]

its

massive?

[balmy ridge]

yeah

[hasty harness]

what in the brainrot

[balmy ridge]

i wonder if there's anything else that's massive

such as a certain male haircut

[hasty harness]

LOWWWW

[hazy agate]

i will stay silent

[woven spire]

idk abt ecto here (i have paint brush)

[balmy ridge]

it's me. im 6'2 (and i read feminist literature)

[hazy agate]

fuh naw

[hasty harness]

why ecto when no hits are good other then constellation

[balmy ridge]

ur playng flushes?

probably dont cus hand size

[woven spire]

yh

[balmy ridge]

i'd cryptid the jack

i mean

king

[woven spire]

i have lucky kings with red seal tho

[cold finch]

gang ante 12 will be the end of me

[hazy agate]

im 6'4, i read feminist literature, i listen to bjork and tyler the creator, i pick up my matcha tea every morning and punch my punching bag while imagining it as period cramps

[balmy ridge]

tyler the creator fucking sucks

[cold finch]

(got the observatory)

[balmy ridge]

observe her tory

[cold finch]

actually

[hazy agate]

tory

[balmy ridge]

tony

[cold finch]

we got a blueprint

we MAY

be able to clutch this ante

[hazy agate]

observe whom

[balmy ridge]

the lion bonds with the small dog

[hazy agate]

the lion respects the bodily autonomy of the dog

[balmy ridge]

the lion

rraaawwr

[hazy agate]

bruh scored 2.6 billion talking bout sum ante 12 being his end

[balmy ridge]

he'll probably die next ante unless something big happens

[quartz ember]

no retriggers feelsbadman

[hazy agate]

something

massive

[balmy ridge]

although i don't remember what green stake scaling is like, could suck

[balmy ridge]

Chud

[hazy agate]

billions must play their last hand for to-do list money and fucking lose

[balmy ridge]

zillions even...

[cold finch]

do note when i said it i had NO blueprint.

Just accidently summoned it

[hazy agate]

manifested it

[valid abyss]

theres a new challenger approaching mr tony

iceave

[cold finch]

it wasa fun run

[potent tree]

i've now gotten 90 percent to c++ and rule breaker

[woven spire]

meow

[potent tree]

anaglyph!!

[woven spire]

yes.

[hazy agate]

who are you

[tired kestrel]

Imagine drawing 2 entire flushes on the boss, drawing literally 5 cards every discard and hand and STILL NOT DRAWING AN ACE FOR YOUR SCHOLAR

This game is trolling

[hazy agate]

i drew out almost my entire deck today and couldnt find a single spade, i played 4 whole hands and 4 whole discards💔

[tidal anvil]

I love scholar

[acoustic kettle]

It's hard to become a scholar yk

Not everyone can ace

Haha

...

Fuck auotomod

[heavy heron]

@dry remnant did you watch it 🫶

[hazy agate]

no❤️

[heavy heron]

i had to blur one part of the video i accidentally went in notif center

[heavy heron]

ok

[balmy ridge]

buddy think he got opps 😭 😭 🙏

[heavy heron]

LOOLLL

MAYBE I DO IDK

don't do what i did and skip 4 blinds

i just had to because

glass was breaking too often

i mean, depends on every situation i guess

[acoustic kettle]

The lion doesn't concern himself with playing blinds

[heavy heron]

^

[dry remnant]

just finished, it's pretty interesting and i can't say I've thought about skipping bound to hold onto glass

[hazy agate]

the lion misses one of the hearts he was tryna tap and plays a two pair and loses

[heavy heron]

well when i know my score far surpasses the blind requirement but at the cost of using glass to do it

that's why i skipped

can i be honest i skipped because

i had

no idea

how much i was scoring

and i was going to die in small and big

but i didn't want to use glass just to survive small and big

so i just saved glass for bosses

[blissful fog]

Told ya

[hazy agate]

thog dont caare

[blissful fog]

Photochad was my answer to the problem lmao

[heavy heron]

was that the seed

that started w the chad

yea it was

[blissful fog]

Yep

[heavy heron]

funny, i never went photograph

[blissful fog]

Went a bit deep and a photo popped up

[dry remnant]

well u two have skills that far surpass me, that is very imkpressive from both of u

[blissful fog]

But wasn't finding photo tho

[heavy heron]

i mean you’ve only played like 15 rounds right

[heavy heron]

it’s alright you’re learning

dw
