[karmic jetty]

Man, Castle is such a good joker for checkered deck

[bright notch]

I’ve just been winging it

What’s your highest score ever

[cosmic sun]

it's a good distraction I love playing at least a game every day

[tiny jetty]

i lost 2 runs to The eye blind today and i let it go

[karmic jetty]

Was a big part of my purple and orange stake wins today

[cosmic sun]

People need to stop sleeping on Castle

[bright notch]

I hate the eye but i hate the mouth even more

[tiny jetty]

[vocal rose]

[tiny jetty]

[tiny jetty]

[grizzled jetty]

[tawny bough]

[tiny jetty]

Waste of a slot😴

[tawny bough]

[jagged cliff]

[tawny bough]

all but ghost

[cosmic sun]

careful they might internalize this LOL

[jagged cliff]

plasma

[cosmic sun]

card sharp GOAT

[bright notch]

Yes

Card sharp is peak

[mellow rampart]

mime is cool

[tiny jetty]

👁️👁️

[tawny bough]

probs my fave card

[bright notch]

Yes

[cosmic sun]

then it hits the eye

[tawny bough]

i heard people struggle the most on here?

[cosmic sun]

blue

[jagged cliff]

dont understand how

[bright notch]

niebieski

[cosmic sun]

get addicted to crack early(tm)

[tawny bough]

plasma is only good for naneinf unless u know how to play plasma insanely well

[vocal rose]

its probably the second worst deck

[cosmic sun]

yeahhhhh it's totally not a different beast on higher stakes

[vocal rose]

because below purple stake its trivial

[slate lance]

HOW DARE YOU UTTER SUCH NONSENSE

[bright notch]

Painted deck is peak

[grizzled jetty]

what is the best then?

[slate lance]

NO

[tawny bough]

ghost deck is the best

[bright notch]

It’s just a troubador but you don’t lose a hand

[tawny bough]

!!!

[vocal rose]

blue

[slate lance]

Personally, ghost

[cosmic sun]

blue

[tawny bough]

i gold staked ghost day 4 of playing the game

[slate lance]

YOU LOSR A JOKER SLOT

[jagged cliff]

i suppose

[bright notch]

YEAH THAYS THE SAME THING THAT HAPPEND WHEN YOU USE TROUBADOR

TROUBADOR IS THE BEST JOKER

[tawny bough]

i might try to gold plasma just cuz its a pretty interesting deck

[cosmic sun]

blue is strong as hell people just wouldn't assume unless they paid attention to what blue deck does for a second

[slate lance]

Ok fair but still

[slate lance]

No way

[bright notch]

red deck is the coolest

[fading cobalt]

Then I go back to red dead and I'm happy again

[tawny bough]

accuracy:99.99999%

[slate lance]

Aside from copy jokers id say my fav is hologram

Actually nvm i cant pick a fav

[bright notch]

Hologram is cool but throwback is cooler

[cosmic sun]

true

[royal bobcat]

Probably

[tawny bough]

im gonna gold stake yellow today!!!
looks inside:
absolutely diabolically bad luck that just shouldnt exist

[bright notch]

No it’s true

[cosmic sun]

holo makes you appreciate marble joker more

[bright notch]

Painted is the best

[jagged cliff]

you're part of the ragebait too??

[bright notch]

i love painted deck

[slate lance]

Throwbacks fine but like u can scale holo way faster and with less of a sacrifice
Skips make u l9se shops holo just makes u have a more broad deck

[tiny jetty]

i got the 6x blind boss on ante 8

today

on yellow deck

[bright notch]

Bluuuuhh

[tiny jetty]

when i had consistent 300-400k scoring

[tawny bough]

ME TOO WTF I LOST TO VV ON YELLOW TODAY LMAOOO

[jagged cliff]

lets get you back to bed gramps

[tiny jetty]

but 600k too much

[tawny bough]

same lmaoooo

[bright notch]

Nooo I want to gamble

[vocal rose]

just get ur skill up and you'll never lose ever again

[bright notch]

What if we’re all just gamble addicts

[vocal rose]

🙂

[tiny jetty]

Were u also running 2 pairs

[jagged cliff]

if?

[tawny bough]

intelligence

[tawny bough]

just pairs but close enough

[vocal rose]

you have that right

[tiny jetty]

mkay

[tawny bough]

what challenge shud i start with

[bright notch]

I’m gamble

[vocal rose]

omelette

so easy

[jagged cliff]

the omelette

[bright notch]

I love gambing

[eternal anchor]

Rich get Richer was the first challenge I beat

[pliant yoke]

omelette might give you a new understanding of THE EGG

[jagged cliff]

fun introduction to what challenges are

[pliant yoke]

if you watch Dr Spectred not so much lol

[jagged cliff]

who doesnt

this IS the balatro server after all

[bright notch]

Lucky cards

They never proc for $20

[tawny bough]

i already use egg in half my runs it is SO goated

[slate lance]

I just realized today hlw much bootstrap sucks

[tacit quail]

ok guys

[slate lance]

2 mult for 5 bucks is insane

[tacit quail]

ante 1 double rare skip

what i gettin

[bright notch]

But what if you have 500 bucks

[eternal anchor]

I've procc'd $20 from lucky cards more times than I'd expect. A 1 in 15 chance feels like 1 in 10

[slate lance]

In what regular run are u gonna have 500 bucks

[bright notch]

Only when you have a lot of lucky cards

[bright notch]

Get your money up not your funny up pal

[tacit quail]

no.. i dont want that....

[jagged cliff]

most of mine im rich like that

[slate lance]

Ur gonna most likely be like 50 or under since ur spending ur money to better ur deck bro

[bright notch]

Unless you have bootstraps

[slate lance]

Im talking high stake runs

[bright notch]

Nvm

Sorry

You’re right

[slate lance]

Is that sarcastic 😭

I cant tell

[floral mural]

never do odd joker unlocks on high stakes tbh

[bright notch]

It’s not

[floral mural]

white stake makes them so much easier to do generally

[slate lance]

Ah ok

[bright notch]

Why do people say green deck is so good

[slate lance]

Whos.doing joker unlocks on gold? The heck

[tacit quail]

i did all my joker unlocks on low stakes while unlocking decks

tbh

[slate lance]

Actually that might be fun

[vocal rose]

more money early game ig

it isnt good

[bright notch]

They told me it is

Hmmm

[cosmic sun]

while far from the best green deck enjoyers probably like not having to worry about interest

[tawny bough]

oooooo

[slate lance]

Im sure somr of myne i got purple stake+ but like 80% was on white stake

[cosmic sun]

which is pretty valid

[fading cobalt]

Thats why we don't pick up throwback

[tawny bough]

green deck is rlly good honestly

[slate lance]

Plus burglar is like 3x better than usual

[cosmic sun]

also things like credit card being a juicier pick on green

[slate lance]

I love burglar on green

[bright notch]

burger

[cosmic sun]

credit card vaga green run

[dreamy creek]

balalala

[eternal anchor]

I find it funny that green deck and green joker don't synergize all that well

[fading cobalt]

Vagabond is bad on green deck

[bright notch]

“1115/1200” wtf are you unlocking bro

[fading cobalt]

Check stats

[eternal anchor]

oh, sorry. 116/150 jokers gold stickered

[dreamy creek]

real

[tacit quail]

why is EVERY rare tagthe damn tribe

[bright notch]

Yeah but where’d the other numbers come from

[tacit quail]

im on this

and 51/150

[bright notch]

Ohhhh

[fading cobalt]

Looks like someone doesn't know about rare tag timing

[bright notch]

I’m lowkey dumb

Mb yo

[tacit quail]

what

[eternal anchor]

I'll do you one better; take a Wraith and it's The Tribe

[tacit quail]

bro

[eternal anchor]

happens to me

[bright notch]

I HAVE 69/1200 BAHAHAHA

[tawny bough]

omelette is a weird deck to play but i just need to get a good scaling joker or 2

imma try 15min city

[cosmic sun]

omelette teaching people about swegg

[tawny bough]

?

[cosmic sun]

knife's edge teaching people about dagger

[vocal rose]

@tiny jetty I love you for the goblin cage suggestion

[fading cobalt]

Swash egg

Eggbuckler

[tawny bough]

idek what that is

[icy hollow]

Ofc the mask appears the round before the boss lmao

[terse dock]

jerk my ideas https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1415780753735680151

[fading cobalt]

Swashbuckler and egg

[tawny bough]

OHHH THE PIRATE+EGG=HUGE SCALING

OH WOW THATS GOATED

[vocal rose]

bro...

[vocal rose]

noooo not really

its okay

[fading cobalt]

Bro you've scored in the E range but don't know eggbuckler 💔

[cosmic sun]

it's something to look out for

[vocal rose]

on the challenge yeah its cracked but nobody gaf about that

[tawny bough]

e35 only

[bright notch]

eggdagger is peak

[cosmic sun]

dagger tho

[bright notch]

“only”

[fading cobalt]

Downplaying e35 is crazy

[vocal rose]

I hit naneinf like 4 times before I had any gold stake knowledge in the slightest

[slate lance]

Ive had this once and i still lost somehow 🥲 i think it was plasma purple or orange stake

[vocal rose]

endless isn't a tell of skill at all

except for maybe econ

[bright notch]

Yeah well you’re playing high stakes so

[fading cobalt]

Surviving till naneinf isn't a tell of skill?!

[slate lance]

High stakes is fun tho

[tacit quail]

foil uncommon double skip hey chat what i getting

[eternal anchor]

Crazy how that works. I might achieve C++ before I even get naneinf once in my entire profile

[slate lance]

Not on plasma

On any other deck it is

[vocal rose]

I mean thats normal

what I did was very irregular

[bright notch]

No i hate blue stake

[cosmic sun]

starting out as a nanlet was probably a huge detriment

[vocal rose]

absolutely 😭

[bright notch]

nanlet?

[terse dock]

I hate nanlet

[vocal rose]

I got clowned on for being a nanlet

[cosmic sun]

HE'S ULTING

[tacit quail]

goat

[vocal rose]

YOU created the term

[cosmic sun]

NANLENHEIMER

[icy hollow]

Ended x6 const, x5 vampire 🤑 just spam xmult fr

[fading cobalt]

Feed it to dagger

[tacit quail]

No

[vocal rose]

"I am become death, the destroyer of nanlets..."

[slate lance]

Just play red deck then!

[terse dock]

Have you ever heard the tale of oppenheimer

[tacit quail]

im ringing the bus

[bright notch]

i haven’t played anything but red deck in 187 runs

[terse dock]

I am become death, destroyer of civility

elitism has grown rampant

world is a fuck

delete this channel

[tacit quail]

i am become death converter of left card to right card

4->K

[icy hollow]

Ngl i almost fluked a naneinf on like my 2nd week cus the run was so lucky (like i got everything with rly bad econ)

[cosmic sun]

stakecel never caught on

[icy hollow]

But i threw cus i didnt realize burger had to be after ante 24 lmao

[terse dock]

Nanlet should've never caught on as was

[tacit quail]

[tacit quail]

[tacit quail]

[terse dock]

[tacit quail]

woam

[terse dock]

You know if you think about it isnt life balatro

[tacit quail]

well i dont have 3 slots for tarots but il take it

[terse dock]

Crystal ball ante 18 trust

[tawny bough]

i got exited for a second :/

[terse dock]

pivot to strush

[tawny bough]

i never heard of that

and to late sadly

[terse dock]

straight flush

[terse dock]

mf it's ante 3 white stake thr world is your oyster

You're playing glorified painted deck anyway

[void topaz]

ummmm

so i like

dont take this right

[terse dock]

sell brainstorm

[void topaz]

lol

lowkey might replace oops since blueprint also gives me scoring

cause i might just win

there was baron mime blue print brainstorm reserved parking in this seed

and im doing bull bootstraps

[balmy ridge]

OH

[void topaz]

you will never have an empty joker slot

havent done this in a while

[raw loom]

Pain

[tacit quail]

rtb thought he did anything 😭

orange stake done :D

now for my last stake before im done

and i can finally just go play 1 deck forever to gold sticker

[atomic trout]

Square Joker sucks

[unborn cliff]

me when im wrong

[warm kindle]

guys, blueprint kinda sucks

lowkey bus is overrated

lowkey red card is f tier

lowkey id rather have flower pot over brainstorm

[unborn cliff]

obelisk is the worst scaling joker

[scenic sigil]

This gets boring quick actually. I'm at 60/150 now but it becomes a slog if you do the same deck over and over

Even ghost deck my beloved

[unborn cliff]

this is true

[tacit quail]

really : (

[warm kindle]

I did ghost deck for like 90% of it

and it was fun

[tacit quail]

thats what i wanna do

thats the first deck i gold staked

back then

[unborn cliff]

i heckin love ghost deck

[scenic sigil]

For me alternating between ghost and checkered is easiest and most enjoyable for getting gold stickers

[warm kindle]

I did play zodiac for a bit

[scenic sigil]

And the occasional plasma

[warm kindle]

and checkered a few times

[warm kindle]

hate plasma personally

also its the 2nd hardest deck so not great for stickering

[scenic sigil]

Checkered is easiest to get a gold stake win on, but it doesn't lend itself well to a number of jokers

[balmy ridge]

plasma isn't one of the hardest decks

[tacit quail]

plasma is funnnn

for the chips jokers

i assume

[warm kindle]

it definitely is

on gold stake

[shadow musk]

It says I'm scoring negative nan help

[balmy ridge]

cryptid mod number randomiser?

[balmy ridge]

❌

[tacit quail]

that is my fave mod

[unborn cliff]

misprint deck

[balmy ridge]

black green nebula

are all worse than plasma

[tacit quail]

i love misprint deck on cryptid its peak

[warm kindle]

green and nebula are not harder than plasma 💀

[tacit quail]

i wish balatro had a random number deck

[balmy ridge]

yes they are

[warm kindle]

green is rlly easy early

and nebula is free telescope

like some runs telscope wont hit but its rare

[scenic sigil]

idk why people say nebula is so hard. I left it as my penultimate deck to get gold stake on and it was pretty easy

The free telescope makes it easy for me

[tacit quail]

it was also my penultimate

yeah once u figure that out its nice

[balmy ridge]

its just so fucking annoying

i hate not being able to use emperor or priestess

or hold anything

[scenic sigil]

Having only one consumable didn't bother me that much tbh

[balmy ridge]

all for a telescope

[warm kindle]

the 1 consumable slot is annoying but its not as bad as plasma

[scenic sigil]

I love getting my wee big on plasma

[warm kindle]

also I get violet vessel every single time on plasma

[tacit quail]

you just dont know how to play plasma just get runner and wee ante 1 and win

idk

its that easy

[tranquil cedar]

oh that's right I'm playing anaglyph

[tacit quail]

duh

[warm kindle]

oh yeah ofc my bad

[tacit quail]

/summon like

[balmy ridge]

trvke

[balmy ridge]

cobra 🐍

[tacit quail]

i can SMELL the baseball from here

[scenic sigil]

runner isn't so hard to get early actually. But blue stake's bum ass discard reduction makes straights so unreliable

it pmo so much maybe I should wait for 1.1 before really going for C++

I still haven't done all the challenges

[warm kindle]

u dont want to use it in a straight build

u can

but its more suited to playing pairs and stuff

just scale it then play pairs to win

[balmy ridge]

uncommon skip bruh moment

[tacit quail]

tis fun

[scenic sigil]

Yeah how do I scale it early bro

by dying

[tacit quail]

do not argue with me i skip more than half the time on ante 1

sometimes double

[balmy ridge]

are you... dissing my boy runner??

[warm kindle]

its not hard to find straights, not easy but not hard either

go for middle cards when u can

[balmy ridge]

runner is my goat

also amazing on plasma

[scenic sigil]

You can flunk out easily

[warm kindle]

like even if u have ace king queen just go for middle cards

[balmy ridge]

you know ace 2 3 4 5 is a straight?

[warm kindle]

on plasma u win with one straight anyways

until like round 5-6

[balmy ridge]

i prefer to do those early on until you can reliably play k q j 10 9 or something close

[scenic sigil]

That's true actually

[warm kindle]

and if u scale runner by then u win anyways

[balmy ridge]

btw runner isnt only good on plasma

[scenic sigil]

Doing an edge like that is not a good idea

[tacit quail]

strush build <3

[balmy ridge]

runner + literally any amount of mult is enough to survive early

[scenic sigil]

Yeah I've had blue+ stake wins with runners before he's actually goated

[warm kindle]

same with any chips joker

[scenic sigil]

on faceless he's really good

[balmy ridge]

why take eternal -handsize for straights

[scenic sigil]

Except square joker which scales at a fucking snail's pace

[tacit quail]

strush build

[warm kindle]

but runner, wee and square are the best

[tranquil oyster]

runner is a great scaling joker, i pretty much always pick him if i see him in an ante 1 shop

[warm kindle]

16 a round

[balmy ridge]

mmnot really

[raw loom]

Mr bones or Raised fist which should I gold sticker 🤔

[warm kindle]

unless u win in 1 hand lol

[balmy ridge]

bones is harder

[warm kindle]

but just dont score too much

[balmy ridge]

i'd do that

[scenic sigil]

16 a round by square or 15 a hand by runner

[tacit quail]

btw it wasnt eternal cause i died next round

[scenic sigil]

Wee my beloved

[tacit quail]

so it also died with me

[balmy ridge]

shocker

[scenic sigil]

You can retrigger 4ever

[warm kindle]

raised fist is +20 mult and works with steel/red seals like its legit carried my mult in multiple runs so id just go with mr bones since it basically does nothing in most runs unless u need it for a boss

[balmy ridge]

wee is probably my fav scaler

[fathom wagon]

I'm playing black deck, should I buy the blank voucher?

[balmy ridge]

in theory with 4 5oak 2s is 160 chips per round (obviously hard to do)

[warm kindle]

most of the time u wont get two straights

[tacit quail]

how much money

[warm kindle]

especially if ur scoring with pairs

[mortal nimbus]

can you afford it without ruining interest?

[balmy ridge]

need more context but probably not

[scenic sigil]

I have the streamer client dw

[tranquil oyster]

in 95% of all cases no.
black deck is poverty deck & you usually don't need 7 jokers to win.

[warm kindle]

depends on ur money situation

[scenic sigil]

You should buy blank on black if you intend to take it to endless

[warm kindle]

like if u have 35 dollars lying around why not

[scenic sigil]

You don't need it to win

[tranquil oyster]

if you randomly have 35 dollars lying around on black deck you are balling beyond belief

[fathom wagon]

I'm on ante 6, have 15$, drunkard, blue joker, swashbucklers, abstract joker, photograph and popcorn... I've been sick on black for a while

[balmy ridge]

no

[warm kindle]

well if ur on a later ante if ur money is still fucked ur prob cooked anyways

[scenic sigil]

Don't buy it bro

[balmy ridge]

with $15 and an extra joker slot you obviously dont take blank

[warm kindle]

yeah dont buy

[scenic sigil]

You're cooked

[tranquil oyster]

don't take it then, you probably won't even see antimatter

[fathom wagon]

Shop has egg, hanged man and arcana

[scenic sigil]

how are you alive do you have a shit ton of planet levels

[tranquil oyster]

looks like a reset ngl

[scenic sigil]

Nahhh don't reset until you see that game over

[fathom wagon]

I've got level 3 of a bunch of hands

[scenic sigil]

The exact legendary you need is in the next arcana pack bro trust

[tranquil oyster]

what stake are you on?

[fathom wagon]

Stake?

[warm kindle]

holy rentals

[fathom wagon]

Normal or whatever the default one is

[tranquil oyster]

difficulty level... so you're probably on white stake, the easiest. yeah i think you can do anything there

[tacit quail]

theeze

[balmy ridge]

at least you get to keep them man 😭 this is the THIRD perishable brainstorm i've found this run

[warm kindle]

they are all perishable as well

💀

like look

[tacit quail]

hey chat what am i getting

[balmy ridge]

mmh i call wee shortcut

[scenic sigil]

Bonfire and marble

[tranquil oyster]

baron + space

[tacit quail]

ur all wrong i didnt pull from my discards so im fucked and i got nothing

[warm kindle]

might send this seed to drspectered this seed is geniuenly so terrible

[scenic sigil]

I wanna try

[tacit quail]

trying again double skip gang

ill only ask if i beat the 600 actually

[warm kindle]

ok maybe not I got wrathful joker now but like 1st ante is scary

[balmy ridge]

[insert patrick bateman sigma gif]

man im so flippen close

[fathom wagon]

What should I do here

[tacit quail]

ok uncommon and rare gang

[scenic sigil]

Go next

[tacit quail]

all of you wrong

[scenic sigil]

I'm surprised you don't have gold sticker on acrobat

[tacit quail]

yeh never bothered with a setup that needed it

[scenic sigil]

it's in a lot of my hold gold wins

You can squeeze it in at the end

[fathom wagon]

Dont buy anything?

[scenic sigil]

Yeah

[fathom wagon]

I always crash out in the last black ante

[scenic sigil]

You need money

You can open the arcana pack if you want

[fathom wagon]

The boss blind for this auntie is the tooth so I'm guaranteed to lose some money

[scenic sigil]

Ok open it and hope you get a temperance or something

[tacit quail]

aight lets go

[fathom wagon]

I went next. Let's see how it goes

[tacit quail]

nvm fucking dead

i swear 600 is annoying its kinda rng

but still worth cuz its funny

[pale wolf]

maybe ill streak on painted

lets see

[balmy ridge]

painted is pretty strong

and its good for straights which i like

[tacit quail]

aight what am i getting

if i do a dagger run you are getting fed to it cause i need mult

[unborn cliff]

he is too powerful

[fathom wagon]

On now I'm here, I need another good joker, reroll?

[pale wolf]

the answer was no

[pale wolf]

to this

[tranquil oyster]

how close were you to dying last round?

[tacit quail]

ummm um

[fathom wagon]

I had some room, but I had popcorn and that was eaten, so I'm down at least a 4x multi

[void topaz]

i promise

its never a high card seed

[tacit quail]

i knowww

[fathom wagon]

One hand left, and I won't it by a couple thousand over

[void topaz]

not once not ever

[warm kindle]

did u take a rare skip 😭

or holo skip

[void topaz]

unless the next 2 jokers are raised fist mime or some shit

[tacit quail]

BOTH

[warm kindle]

are u trying to do min rounds or something

[tacit quail]

:3

no i just do this for fun

mmmm

[void topaz]

holo skip might be the worst thing ever

[tacit quail]

its p shit

[void topaz]

lowkey not worth there

[tiny jetty]

See ik ball

[void topaz]

like good joker bad sticker bad synergy

[tranquil oyster]

4x mult + 3x from abstract + 2x from swashbuckler.
idk what "some room" means here, but if you used up all hands last round you should probably buy something. if not, keep the money.

[tiny jetty]

not enough mult 🥺

[tacit quail]

[tiny jetty]

or money

[tacit quail]

taking it again

[void topaz]

dawg

[tacit quail]

[low sorrel]

Will they ever add more jokers?

[fathom wagon]

Yeah sorry I'm somewhat vague. I don't remember exactly what it was lol

[void topaz]

[tranquil oyster]

to skip is to put your fate in the hands of god.

[void topaz]

celestial skip is like

the worst thing known to man kind

[tranquil oyster]

[scenic sigil]

[scenic sigil]

Yeah sometime this year

Localthunk doesn't have much time left

[low sorrel]

[fathom wagon]

Ok, will come back to this later, gotta go

[void topaz]

[tacit quail]

[void topaz]

[waxen marlin]

balatro is cool as hell i like it when the cards make the numbers big and the ding sound plays

[tacit quail]

bro im already pressed r twice lost a run and then on a new screen

i play fast

[atomic trout]

Four Jokers only 🤣

[tacit quail]

unc + arcana lets run it

[void topaz]

awg

if you wanna skip

look for one of these combos

rare + investment

double + investment

[tacit quail]

i know the combos but im also vibes

[void topaz]

double + rare

so like

do that

[minor portal]

double (7x) + negative trust

[tacit quail]

smeared 🤷‍♂️

[void topaz]

lowkey on yellow deck investment tag is ass too

[void topaz]

wow

who couldve guessed

[minor portal]

Anaglyph deck is so peak

[tacit quail]

wait

[void topaz]

four fingers and shortcut is good for strush

smeared is not

dont ask

[tacit quail]

sure

[slate lance]

Bros playing painted deck without the upside

[void topaz]

insane draw

[void topaz]

most convulated way to say bro has an eternal joker

[tacit quail]

this is consistent bro

[void topaz]

dawg wtf

[tiny jetty]

until its not

[tacit quail]

trus

[tiny jetty]

💀💀

[slate lance]

They didnt 😭

[jagged valve]

Chicot can ruin serpent

[slate lance]

Wait which ones serpent

I still have gotta memorise almost all boss blinds

All ik is the plant basically

[void topaz]

what???

[tacit quail]

run it bro

[slate lance]

They dont have an eternal joker

[jagged valve]

Always draw 3 cards

[slate lance]

In the pic i replied to

[jagged valve]

Is serpent

[slate lance]

Ohhhh

[void topaz]

ohhhhhhh

[jagged valve]

Bad for blackboard

[void topaz]

thats just how you unlock invisible

[jagged valve]

In some cases

[slate lance]

Ig so but thats pretty niche

[void topaz]

blackboard is my goat

[jagged valve]

I bet theres more cases

[void topaz]

wait i wanna find my good run one sec

[jagged valve]

My last run

[atomic trout]

Nooo

[jagged valve]

Got to ante 14

[atomic trout]

I got to 11

[jagged valve]

Aww

[sullen flicker]

First win on gold stake! It's a goal I've been trying to achieve for the longest time, but I didn't get anything new unlocked after achieving it. There is a bit of an empty feeling now... any suggestions on what to do next?

[void topaz]

have you done challenges

[sullen flicker]

i think 12/20, so I will get started there next

Maybe there will be a new update by the time I'm done with them

[lament crater]

who will be the invis joker lucky one

[fiery nymph]

proof bloodstone is horrible

it doesnt have a single neko on it

[lament crater]

bloodstone let me down

early wall

ran into it

got a headache

[uncut matrix]

gold black is giving me major headaches 😔

its the last one i need

[lament crater]

i get vampire in two shops back to back

no

i do not need

your useless ass

[uncut matrix]

yikes

[lament crater]

first one was a polychrome one

12 bucks

for one of the worst jokers to play with imo

and an additional 1.5x mult

[uncut matrix]

do you not have tarot generation

[lament crater]

which does nothing for me ante 2

[uncut matrix]

or is it -

[lament crater]

ante 1

actually

[uncut matrix]

was boutta ask if early game

[lament crater]

HOLY OUIJA HIT

thank you sixth sense

thank you ouija

[viscid mango]

fuck u baron

[urban wren]

the fucking hook

I could have won if it didn’t snipe like every steel card from my hand

[balmy ridge]

NOOOOOO WHATEVER WILL I DO WITH CHAOS THE CLOWN DISABLED 💔

[vocal rose]

I don’t think you were copying right

[urban wren]

I swapped to mime mid round for gold card value

[final garden]

do i take runner here in place of devious joker

[willow frost]

yes

[hot leaf]

What does beating Orange Stake unlock

[final garden]

erratic deck

it basically makes your deck have random ranks and suits

52 cards but you dont have 13 of each suit and 4 of each rank

[acoustic kettle]

Isn't erratic a gold unlock

Nvm

[pale wolf]

time to play erratic

hmm

[acoustic kettle]

Would be fun if erratic also randomises deck size

Baron

8 ball gaming

[cedar shell]

can someone help me

i was gonna take mime over baron but my joker size goes to 7

selling the not negative baron

[uncut matrix]

lets go!

[cedar shell]

which technically makes sense i got antimatter and ecto

but i cant figure out how i have 8 joker slots

[pale wolf]

idk if i want ramen with discard voucher

[cedar shell]

what does your deck look like

maybe you can take bp over mask?

[pale wolf]

yea that's the plan

[cedar shell]

yeah probably

[fair tiger]

I'm not very good at this game so far but it's been fun

[woven spire]

i like how every channel in this server feels like another server

[fathom trellis]

=w=

[fathom trellis]

how do you get so many dupes lol

[cedar shell]

they showed me the man

(showman)

[fathom trellis]

i mean i see him but still

you must've had some huge money generation i guess lol

[cedar shell]

and money

[pale wolf]

wat the fuc

this does not work for me

[cedar shell]

throw it on the pile as they say

[acoustic kettle]

Chump block crimson

[pale wolf]

crimson heart fuel

[acoustic kettle]

[cedar shell]

most lethal crimson heart hits bean and gives you infinite hand size

(i've lost so many runs by a tiny margin to the heart)

[cedar shell]

how did you become blue

were you always blue i thought you were purple

[coral summit]

Whap

What do

Continue?

[pale wolf]

no standard packs but now i got magic trick

[pale wolf]

i am now blue

might be gg

[fading cobalt]

Roffle Heavy just spams checkered lmao

[balmy ridge]

holy shit im doing the thing

[fading cobalt]

Holy shit synergy

[balmy ridge]

its a good synergy not shit

wdym

[fading cobalt]

Oh sorry

Holy shit, synergy

[balmy ridge]

good boy

[fading cobalt]

[tranquil steppe]

Trolls

[fading cobalt]

No those are fools

[tranquil steppe]

The fools troll me and only get me to $9

[fading cobalt]

Uh idk hermit it arcana

Brainstorm isn't even needed ngl

[woven spire]

oops making bloodstone useful

[tranquil steppe]

Bloodstone is goated

[fading cobalt]

Yes that is typically how oops works

Holy I'm tired

[woven spire]

with oops, yes.

[tranquil steppe]

Or seltzer, Chad, ancient with hearts, red seals

[fading cobalt]

Even then you can die if bloodstone doesn't trigger enough

[woven spire]

yh, but if its alone its the ragebait joker

[tranquil steppe]

Meh there are far worse jokers

[wintry ice]

like 4

[fading cobalt]

Seance, baron, idol, ...

[wintry ice]

also isn't bloodstone just obsolete if you have aj

like why build towards bloodstone when you can balance your suits for aj

[balmy ridge]

oops!

[fading cobalt]

Oops! Impostor stone

[crystal field]

666

😲

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[cedar shell]

can i take brainstorm or is it blueprint or bust

[fading cobalt]

If you unstone the stone it will be a 6 trust

[serene forge]

you have four copy jokers you're already fine

[fading cobalt]

Kill showman?

Or. Or. Kill showman

Maybe blueprints more valuable tho

[pale wolf]

How many discards can disc drunkard give you until it is empty

[fading cobalt]

Disc drunkard?

[cedar shell]

like since brainstorm is brainstorm am i fine with just 5 copy jokers or do i need to have 2+ blueprints

dont remember

[fading cobalt]

Well blueprint helps your balance with baron and mime alot

[wintry ice]

yea

you could replace that one baron ig

[fading cobalt]

Why would you do that

[wintry ice]

because you make slightly more money if you do that

[fading cobalt]

What then sell a brainstorm when 2 blueprints come by?

[weak harbor]

which do i get rid of for mime? deck is just a ton of plain/lucky kings rn

[fading cobalt]

Buskin

Is the weakest link

[weak harbor]

that was what i was figuring thank you

[balmy ridge]

are you going for endless

if so get rid of buskin cus u play high card

otherwise just don't take it

[weak harbor]

yup probably 7/8 rn

thanks guys

[balmy ridge]

yeah socky busky go bye bye

[fading cobalt]

When you put it like that it sounds like you're putting down a dog 💔

[cedar shell]

the real play is to ankh blueprint and steel pivot until the baron comes back

[wintry ice]

i think that would be the move later

they could also try to get rebate if they can live afterwards

[cedar shell]

if i sell it my joker count goes down

its bugged both of my barons seem to be negative

[weak harbor]

I really considered it 💀

[raw loom]

Why is it always a random green stake run that has the most batshit rng

[cedar shell]

this invis did NOT do its job

[wintry ice]

whuh

[fading cobalt]

Well mime = scoring and econ but rebate is only econ

Rebate could kill them

[wintry ice]

why is it showing 8/8

i'm assuming it was a negative invis joker

[cedar shell]

wait

[wintry ice]

but then why would it show 8/8

[tranquil steppe]

Socks

[fading cobalt]

What are you talking about

[minor valve]

Huh. Interesting

[cedar shell]

positive invis joker

[fading cobalt]

Nvm

[cedar shell]

im just assuming something got messed up when i copied the negative baron

[fading cobalt]

I see the problem

[minor valve]

I got this from a wraith

[fading cobalt]

Shiny aswell?

[minor valve]

Nat polychrome

[fading cobalt]

Is that even possible??

[minor valve]

Yes

[cedar shell]

ok i have to go pls @ if you have a solution ill check later

[fading cobalt]

Nat polychrome from wraith?

[fervent wolf]

It's finally over....

[minor valve]

If you can get a nat negative perkeo from a soul card you can get a polychrome from a wraith

[fading cobalt]

"just score naneinf"

[fading cobalt]

Fair enough

[fervent wolf]

It's easy

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[left vine]

Who doesn't

[serene forge]

plenty of people sadgely

[fiery nymph]

you got a big enough deck ?

[quartz flicker]

sure do love a 5k chip wee

[lunar zealot]

Wrong

[fervent wolf]

Maybe

[lunar zealot]

I don't know why i said that

[hot leaf]

So what does the deck unlocked from Orange Stake do

[quartz flicker]

isnt that erractic deck?

[hot leaf]

What does that do

Also how hard is Orange Stake

[quartz flicker]

pretty hard

[quartz flicker]

randomizes all suits and ranks in your deck

[hot leaf]

Oh...so its ass

[hot leaf]

It already took me a lot of retries to get the right build for beating Blue Stake

Using Ghost Deck

[wintry ice]

it makes 3oak and 4oak easier to enable sometimes

[slate lance]

Its not ass, it makes oak's way easier
I personally find it a bit boring tho

[wintry ice]

it's usually a very normal deck though

[hot leaf]

What's oak

[wintry ice]

of a kind

[hot leaf]

Oh

Is it worth it

[slate lance]

Or full/flush houses

[wintry ice]

it's decent

[slate lance]

Oaks scale way faster than other hands so its fine

Scale as in planets

[hot leaf]

Also I put the Balatro Orchestra theme in the BG while I played through Blue Stake

Shit felt legendary

[quartz flicker]

i just decided to play plasma for my first gold stake run. im glad i did. plasma deck is so easy

[slate lance]

Ragebait lvl 1

Try harder lil bro

[red thistle]

Stop having fun guys that's ragebait.

[slate lance]

That's also ragebait

I aint fallin for it

[red thistle]

Whatever you say big girl.

[willow frost]

why do you always start and end your sentences properly, regardless of the quality of the text itself

[quartz flicker]

what

i havent even done a gold stake run on anyother deck

[hot leaf]

Burnt Joker has become my favorite Rare Joker as of late

[willow frost]

its pretty good

[hot leaf]

High level Pair

[wintry ice]

plasma deck is either free or hellish

[quartz flicker]

just hit one earlier with only chips and only 3 scoring jokers

[crystal field]

gold stake plasma 😈

[wintry ice]

i mean the scoring jokers in question are some of the best scoring jokers for it

[crystal field]

i actually hate playing on plasma deck

[wintry ice]

also blueprint is a huge factor

[red thistle]

Are you talking about me? The purpose was never about text quality it was just a joke i was mimicking someone who talks like this and it just stuck out.

[serene forge]

I hate Baron

I love Mime

[wintry ice]

who were you mimicing

[serene forge]

same

[willow frost]

oh so you just do this permanently now lol

cool

[quartz flicker]

why. literally the easiest deck to win on

[serene forge]

I hate Plasma Deck

[crystal field]

try gold stake

[quartz flicker]

i did that first try this morning

[serene forge]

define easy

[quartz flicker]

i literally just showed you a gold stake run i won on this morning

[crystal field]

ohh lol

[serene forge]

because it's not easy at all to win consistently on this deck

[crystal field]

try again

[quartz flicker]

how?

[crystal field]

see if you can do it withour burnt joker

[wintry ice]

i mean you haven't tried any other deck

[red thistle]

I try to add punctuations more to make it kinda look high quality so people don't say this anymore but you're special so you get an in-depth explanation.

[quartz flicker]

black deck

and checkered deck

[soft mango]

I had a super crazy start to a run and thought I was gonna beat my record but I got no reroll voucher and ran into the plant 😔

[serene forge]

no other deck asks you to do what you're supposed to do on plasma

[willow frost]

keep winning until you lose, and then youll see how hard it is 💯

[wintry ice]

you can't really form an objective opinion on it

[serene forge]

and a lot of good jokers on literally any other deck are completely worthless on plasma

[crystal field]

truth

some of my fav jokers are ass on plasma 😔

[willow frost]

thanks man, ive been called special many times over the years

[wintry ice]

decks like yellow, blue and abandoned are by far the best in terms of consistency for gold stake

[woven spire]

how tf am i suposed to do ts

[soft mango]

The flip side is also true though, the basic chip jokers can get you to the end of a run in plasma

[wintry ice]

plasma falls off quite hard in purple and above because of the 1.2million violet vessel

[serene forge]

nope

[red thistle]

White stake.

[serene forge]

not on gold

[crystal field]

easiest deck is ghost deck because theres a spooky ghost anf he says welcome to balatro

[willow frost]

lock in, preferably with throwback

[serene forge]

chips on plasma for a whole run requires wee

[wintry ice]

probably on lower stakes but you need way more material than that for gold

[quartz flicker]

i scored 1.2 mil in one hand.

[serene forge]

or something to that extent

with blueprint probably

[quartz flicker]

with 3 scoring jokers

[wintry ice]

your case had blueprint burnt joker and arrowhead

i don't think you can consider that the norm

[serene forge]

LMAO

[quartz flicker]

didnt use burnt joker

[serene forge]

ARROWHEAD

[willow frost]

a fool's errand

[soft mango]

I had a triple triboulet but ran into the plant, im so sad 😔

[wintry ice]

like if i based everything on anecdotes i could easily make a case for how vampire is the best joker in the game

[quartz flicker]

ok. i can do it with scary face

[quartz flicker]

thats common

[wintry ice]

you probably could if you had blueprint and seltzer

which are an uncommon and a rare

[willow frost]

holy hell skong got hands

[weak harbor]

are DNA and hanging chad the next two on the chopping block? I presumably just kinda want more brainstorms and blueprints here no?

[serene forge]

skong 👍

[crystal field]

[quartz flicker]

yes

[wintry ice]

like you should expect a run to be easy if you have one of the best jokers in the game

[serene forge]

yes

and find ecto and antimatter asap

also what's the ante

you probably should be using gold cards

[weak harbor]

13/8

[wintry ice]

yeah you don't want your gold cards to be hard to access later

[weak harbor]

yeah i should </3

[soft mango]

beat gold stake plasma with a royal flush deck today. It was pretty fun

[red thistle]

Scary face can't score 2.4m by itself.

[river compass]

Man... I love this deck

[quartz flicker]

obviously

[weak harbor]

i cant farm as many rerolls as i would like to chase the shit i need

[onyx ginkgo]

hi

[willow frost]

what mods

[crystal field]

so what else do you need

[river compass]

Is just cryptid

[quartz flicker]

retriggering jokers

[willow frost]

really?damn

[fervent wolf]

Ggs

[quartz flicker]

and bonus cards

[willow frost]

im on cryptid 0.5.3 so im a little behind lol

[wintry ice]

i was expecting it to be just a texture pack that changes the legendaries into the quintuplets

[crystal field]

u should try lmk how it goes

[wintry ice]

but yea i recognise the exotic joker border

[balmy ridge]

progress

[quartz flicker]

why? i just did one this morning

[serene forge]

I hate Smiley Face

[crystal field]

Smiley Face and Steven are balls

[wintry ice]

didn't your example have arrowhead

which is 66% stronger

[soft mango]

I love hiker, he never does much but when he does its 🔥

[serene forge]

nyny agrees with you i think you know what that means

[crystal field]

i have to jump into the volcano now

💔

[balmy ridge]

who is nyny

[wintry ice]

smiley and steven are fine

[balmy ridge]

bad evil guy?

[crystal field]

no

[quartz flicker]

yes

[crystal field]

hes a chill guy

[serene forge]

I love Even Steven

[wintry ice]

basic commons are basic commons

[balmy ridge]

agree

[crystal field]

mmyes

but i dont like em

[wintry ice]

half of the common jokers' job is getting through earlygame

[balmy ridge]

i prefer steven to smiley but maybe i'm biased because of abandoned deck

[crystal field]

steven is better because there are more even cards than face cards

[unreal island]

like delayed gratification!

[crystal field]

even in a standard deck
