[wintry ice]

scary face is made better by the scarcity of chip generators

[crystal field]

and todd is way better than scary face

[wintry ice]

oh this was talking about smiley

[unreal island]

(1 chip)

[wintry ice]

yea they're both just decent

[soft mango]

Everytime I try to make a wildcards deck with ancient joker every single boss blind becomes insta death unless i remove the wildcards its so annoying. Definitely worst special effect on a card imo

[wintry ice]

todd could honestly use a small nerf

[crystal field]

again theres more odd cards than face cards so its easier to use todd

[unreal island]

granted, it now gives +29 chips

[red thistle]

How would thunk nerf it.

[wintry ice]

+25 would be fine imo

the true nerf is to not count aces clearly

[unreal island]

debuffed during even numbered rounds

[crystal field]

Is ace not odd?

ig technically its -

[unreal island]

ace is odd

[crystal field]

A

not 1

[red thistle]

It's balanced between it and scary in the fact that it's not as easy to retrigger todd cards i suppose.

[unreal island]

A is a placeholder for 1 and 11

[fiery nymph]

1 and 11 are both odd

[unreal island]

yes!

[red thistle]

That would be quite funny.

[fiery nymph]

i say lowering chip count is what makes sense

[crystal field]

ooo

[unreal island]

just like how k q and j are standins for 10

so straights are 1 10 10 10 9

[crystal field]

well they give 10 chips

[unreal island]

👍

[red thistle]

It also brings up an interesting possibility of skipping rounds to have it active in ones that are too difficult.

[fiery nymph]

well 11 in that example

[unreal island]

shh

its funnier thisw ay

[fiery nymph]

if you want 1 it would be 1,2,3,4,5

[serene forge]

I hate Photograph

[crystal field]

photograph is bad on its own tbh

esp in early game irs basically a +4

[unreal island]

conditional +4

thus jimbo is better

[crystal field]

wait so does rhat mean even steven turns even cards into jimbo!

🫶

[limpid gate]

Hey can someone tell me what part of collection merry andy is in

[crystal field]

joker

s

[limpid gate]

Yeah but like the page

[crystal field]

same page as blueprint so i think page 8

[mortal nimbus]

I want to say page 10 top row, slot 4

nope, page 9, top row, slot 5

[red thistle]

9

[limpid gate]

Ok thank you

[crystal field]

next to wee and bp right

is rhat page 9

[limpid gate]

Yep

[crystal field]

im so dumb… god..

😓

[limpid gate]

Nah your good, I should know this since with debug mode I get jokers with the collection

But since I dont have unlocks I couldnt tell which was which lol

[red thistle]

Being dumb and forgetting something are two different things.

[robust lance]

OH GOD NO MY MONEYYY

[crystal field]

im both asf

but true

[fading dome]

this has gotten very easy to check on the wiki btw https://balatrowiki.org/w/Collection#Page_9

[fiery nymph]

what... 😭

[red thistle]

Does it just vacuum up exactly $1 from your wallet or something.

[unreal island]

the price to pay for liking c9

[robust lance]

deck gimmick btw
(aka econ makes ecto and whatever else inconsequential)

[limpid gate]

Sweet

[robust lance]

remvoes a dollar from end of round pay out

[red thistle]

Your imagination is very sad.

[robust lance]

thats what it did tho

[limpid gate]

Man that sounds busted fun

Anyways back to breaking the game

[robust lance]

see

7 when i should have gotten 8

[red thistle]

Exactly my point.

[winged quarry]

lowkey what do you do after 100%ing balatro

[red thistle]

Long break.

[left juniper]

Play more

[red thistle]

The duality of balala.

[robust lance]

mod

like me

(except i dont have c++ but shush)

[winged quarry]

i got like completionist ++ at 36 hours or 63 hours idk which

im only missing completionist +

beat every deck on goldstake

[red thistle]

Impressively fast.

[left juniper]

Could play mods, set yourself some challenges, just play for fun, speed, make goofy-ass builds

[robust lance]

i was actually thinking about gettind c++ without c or c+

[left juniper]

Ghost Deck Black Stake and try to win with 5 copies of some stupid joker

[winged quarry]

i done that with invis joker lol

[unreal island]

you could've used that time to read bluestorm yuri

[robust lance]

anything can happen in white stake bruh

also shoutout this holographic 9 i got from a pack i intended to skip

(took it cause like... cloud 9 deck)

[fiery nymph]

its so fun

just click a random deck and cook up with cards you never knew you could use

[robust lance]

die a thousand deaths

both broke btw

[fiery nymph]

dna my belived

[robust lance]

"I've got an idea!"

I can either one shot the blind or get 5 bucks...

[quartz flicker]

2 times in a row?

[crystal field]

50/50 chance

[robust lance]

i just did the biggest through ever i dont wanna talk about it

[white zodiac]

or unlock the scribbly

[robust lance]

(I betted on a judgement and not a non scoring joker)

[red thistle]

Holy shit it's andolth.

[crystal field]

its ok

[red thistle]

[crystal field]

judgement is ass on purpose

i think

[winged quarry]

from 100%ing balatro to 100%ing cryptid...

[white zodiac]

[robust lance]

hey one of these are a deck in the mod i'm using

[red thistle]

Dusking.

[robust lance]

yup

retriggers all cards in last hand twice -1 hand

(better black deck)

[quartz flicker]

got two in a row. didnt find scary face

[crystal field]

dusk more like

fusk

[red thistle]

Fusk from undertalr.

[crystal field]

wee is the best chip scaler in the game, nice getting two of them

[crystal field]

they should add a undertale joker

[red thistle]

No they shouldn't.

[crystal field]

sans joker

bad time joker

heh

[robust lance]

nah they should make it a deltarune joker instead

[quartz flicker]

plasma deck is not inconsistent on gold stake\

[robust lance]

(starwalker)

((im VERY biased))

[crystal field]

im waiting for deltarune to fully come out before i play remaining chapters

[red thistle]

You only tried plasma didn't you.

[quartz flicker]

havent done a gold stake run on anything else

[crystal field]

you must be really good then

[quartz flicker]

i got kinda unlucky mid game where i didnt finds a hack or chad, but i got saved end game from a little extra econ i made to find hiker chad with a red seal 2

[crystal field]

also nice pfp i love bnuuys

[robust lance]

WE UP

pair build? WRONG. 4 of a kind!

[crystal field]

Oh

[white zodiac]

should try getting c++ on only plasma and see how much mileage you get

[crystal field]

i love ghost deck

[crystal field]

well its easy, u only need scary face remember

[white zodiac]

[quartz flicker]

whats c++?

[crystal field]

completionist ++

[white zodiac]

gold stickers on all jokers

[crystal field]

all gold stake deck wins, challenges, joker stickers

[robust lance]

scratch that

[crystal field]

but for the plasma only

just need all gold stickers

[white zodiac]

c++ is not inclusive to c+ or c

[crystal field]

ooooh

[quartz flicker]

oh thats easy. ialready got it for seance

[crystal field]

its not hard so much as it is time consuming

[white zodiac]

only 149 more to go

if u wanna make it harder you could do a win streak

[red thistle]

Which makes it not the best unit of measuring skill.

[unreal island]

two pair

[white zodiac]

ik

[crystal field]

who cares abt skill in the funny card game

[solid tartan]

Heck yeah! Halfway to completionist+

[white zodiac]

just wanna splice out some info

[red thistle]

Skill makes the game much more fun.

[night turret]

What the fuck was I thinking, I just zoned back in while playing

[crystal field]

Well the game is easy

[night turret]

How am I on ante 11

[white zodiac]

they poured skill in my fun soup

[red thistle]

The game isn't easy.

[crystal field]

oh..

[quartz flicker]

kinda depends on the deck

[night turret]

The higher you progress, the harder you get

[solid tartan]

Depends on the stake more like

[red thistle]

Fyi plasma isn't even top 5 best decks.

[night turret]

Like any other game

[quartz flicker]

yes it is

[crystal field]

for gold stake its yello

[quartz flicker]

number 1 deck

[crystal field]

or blu

[white zodiac]

meantathar

[solid tartan]

Plasma SUCKS on higher stakes, the double score requirement is killer

[white zodiac]

oh

[quartz flicker]

bro i havent had to use all 5 of my joker slots to win games

[wintry ice]

have you tried any other deck for gold stake

[quartz flicker]

nope

[white zodiac]

[quartz flicker]

cant make it to gold stake with any other deck

[solid tartan]

Ghost deck go brrrrr

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[wintry ice]

what merit do you have in this discussion then

[crystal field]

ohhhh i see whats happening now

[red thistle]

This wasn't even a slip up because m is close to i, i just unintentionally typed fym.

[crystal field]

gotta learn how to swap playstyles

[quartz flicker]

ik how to

[solid tartan]

My playstyle is “reset until ride the bus or green joker” and then fumble it because I don’t know how to work with things other than flat scaling

[quartz flicker]

my only problem is early game. plasma deck fixes that

[red thistle]

How sad.

[white zodiac]

at the expense of making everything else inconsistent

[quartz flicker]

not really

[wintry ice]

plasma deck has the worst lategame out of any deck in gold stake

yellow deck's lategame is free because economy snowballs hard

[red thistle]

What's the point of this really, do you truly get the fun you're looking for by doing the same thing all over again.

[quartz flicker]

cap

[wintry ice]

blue deck's lategame is free for a similar reason

same goes for abandoned

[white zodiac]

e

[wintry ice]

zodiac makes finding material easier because of overstock

[serene forge]

they should rename plasma deck to awful deck

[wintry ice]

ghost makes it easier to get seals

[quartz flicker]

no

plasma deck is the goat

[red thistle]

So silksong deck, got it.

[white zodiac]

they should give plasma the echo deck scaling treatment

[red thistle]

[solid tartan]

Throwback to the time I won on purple stake with black deck by Lady Luck just kissing me and giving me holo perkeo. Fun times

[proper flame]

Throwback

[hot leaf]

FINALLY BEAT A BLACK DECK RUN

[serene forge]

fuck you

[red thistle]

Thanksies.

[quartz flicker]

black deck is goated also.

[wintry ice]

is this based on the run where you had blueprint arrowhead or do you have more gold stake runs on it to prove that this isn't an anecdote

[stark karma]

whatever man

[quartz flicker]

idk how to keep screenshots but yes

[wintry ice]

didn't you say plasma was good because of it's earlygame

[red thistle]

Grocery shopping out here.

[wintry ice]

black deck's earlygame sucks

[stark karma]

I had two invisibles

thought it'd be funny

[red thistle]

It was infact funny.

[unreal island]

bro got a bushel of bananas

[quartz flicker]

yes but ive had so many instaances of dying to needing a joker slot for better econ, black deck fixes that

[solid tartan]

Black deck is unanimously thought of as the worst deck due it’s insanely terrible early game

[robust lance]

anything can happen in red stake

[wintry ice]

and this horrible earlygame ends up leading to a pretty terrible lategame because of the dogwater economy

[white zodiac]

im just gonna leave this here

[shell dagger]

black deck kills you before you see the econ joker

[robust lance]

32 fortune teller btw

and drivers is NOT active somehow

[wintry ice]

may i introduce you to the concept of

[red thistle]

Notice how fortune teller is being used here, this is because this game has mods installed and is on red stake.

[robust lance]

active now

[robust lance]

oh my GOD dude i only have TWO THINGS INSTALLED

sleevs and more decks

[proper flame]

Black Deck, if you don't skip any blinds, costs you $24 over an 8 ante run, counting ante 8. Not including all the money you'd make indirectly from things you can no longer afford

[robust lance]

i am NOT one of those cryptards

[proper flame]

Its so bad

[quartz flicker]

still plasma deck literally makes everything better on gold stake runs

ok guys

[white zodiac]

u should try a 15 gs win streak on i-

[quartz flicker]

alrighttttttt

[white zodiac]

hi amelia

[robust lance]

bro REALLY wanted to be on the team

[serene forge]

hi

[shell dagger]

it makes everything worse unless you have a chips:mult ratio better than 6:1 or worse than 1:6

[red thistle]

...? Why are you mimicking a slur.

[robust lance]

idk

[hybrid tendon]

oh wow the cavalry got you

[serene forge]

hiiii sweetie

[quartz flicker]

easy if i use all my joker slots or use mult instead of chips. ive been using only chip jokers and 3-4 joker slots just to prove that plasma deck is easy

[white zodiac]

should I put Amelia on my blue seal list

[hybrid tendon]

hey babe~

[serene forge]

whats that

[hybrid tendon]

teto_heart

[white zodiac]

no no no, I wanna see receipts

[red thistle]

What does the blue seal list do.

[wintry ice]

the +mult jokers in question:

[red thistle]

The xmult jokers with no pre-existing setups in question.

[quartz flicker]

u want me to do a 15 win streak rn anf send a screenshot of every single one

[white zodiac]

#🕹・game-discussion message

like a list of ppl I put to teach new kiddies in balala server

[white zodiac]

yeah

that's what I did

well

when I used to do that

[hybrid tendon]

she's more into bullying people who are wrong than teaching them :p

[wintry ice]

how are you going to claim you did somethong without proof of it

[white zodiac]

ok fair enough
purple seal list

[red thistle]

I guess i'm in retirement.

[robust lance]

i played like 25 glass cards (total) and none broke

did i get the tempered set or some shit

[serene forge]

gold seal list

[wintry ice]

glass jokes secretly halves the chance they break or something

[hybrid tendon]

lmao what's that ?

[muted fiber]

should I take the brainstorm?

[white zodiac]

you're in wait-list (idk ig you're not active enough)

[tranquil cargo]

I once picked up dna in ante 3 and kept trying to duplicate a glass card until ante 6

it broke every single time

[serene forge]

bye photograph

[proper flame]

they should lowkey make that a deck. Glass cards don't break but base mult for all poker hands is 1

[quartz flicker]

i have school in the morning. im not about to stay up till 3 lol. maybe tomorrow. you want me to play another game?

[solid tartan]

What kind of question is that? The answer is always yes

[robust lance]

that sounds DOGWATER

[white zodiac]

imaginary list I made for my favs

[hybrid tendon]

hell yeah

she's my fav too

[robust lance]

im just a hater i didnt think about it

[wintry ice]

the streak doesn't have to be in quick succession

it has to be a string of runs without a loss

[proper flame]

If Black Deck didn't exist and I said "We should make a deck where you get an extra joker slot but you lose a hand" people would hate it too 🔥

Hell, black deck DOES exist and people hate it

[serene forge]

that sounds horrific

[white zodiac]

doesn't have to be in a row
each win, with updated streaks, gs, stat screen with blind score in background, etc

can be between days

[muted fiber]

thanks man, how should i arrange them?

[robust lance]

how aobut this instead

[proper flame]

id play this

[serene forge]

i would not play this

[red thistle]

You would need like 2 strushes to beat round 1.

[proper flame]

you need the extra antes to get wee joker up

[hybrid tendon]

that's just... playing ante 10 ?

[quartz flicker]

ok

[robust lance]

yeah but you start at ante 0

more scaling

think about it

[serene forge]

wtf am i gonna scale if the scoring requirement is 150 😭

[hybrid tendon]

ok then it's ante 9

[serene forge]

now since this doesn't make you lose a hand it actually doesn't suck

[robust lance]

madness

[hybrid tendon]

not really any scaling to do

[serene forge]

idk still boring

[proper flame]

Maybe just start with Hieroglyph voucher (And its downside) but you get some other bonus

[proven gulch]

not even good if it's ante -1

[white zodiac]

more boss blinds that kill you (potentially)

[red thistle]

I think the boss of ante 10 would need more score than vv.

[robust lance]

simply win

[serene forge]

make the game start at ante -27

(you need to win before you die of boredom)

[proper flame]

high card winning ante -27 small blind by default

we'd love to see that

[proven gulch]

Start on Ante 2
-1 Antes to win

[tranquil cargo]

ante 0 and below all have base amount 100

[red thistle]

No finisher bosses?

[proper flame]

If you take hieroglyph on ante -27, you 'go back' to ante 39

[robust lance]

ok what if THIS replaced black deck

[serene forge]

actually, for whatever reason, antes below 0 still have the scoring requirements of ante 0

[valid abyss]

i'd just like to state my personal opinion on balatro

[proven gulch]

move it up

[valid abyss]

balatro

okay bye everyone

[robust lance]

WAIT

DONT LEAVE

[hybrid tendon]

bye

[red thistle]

Tbf would've been a cakewalk if there wasn't.

[serene forge]

girls

[red thistle]

The first round would be pretty scary with 1k score but if you fet lucky with the draws or play 3-4 5 card hands you'll get through it.

[hybrid tendon]

she wants more, girly is greedy fr

[red thistle]

It gets to a matter of mult jokers or no mult jokers.

[serene forge]

more of you

[valid abyss]

waddup

[robust lance]

hai :3

ok you can go now

[valid abyss]

Okay!

[tepid perch]

bankers hate this one simple trick

[valid abyss]

hack

[robust lance]

cloud 9 on the cloud 9 deck???

wonderful.

how the fuck is cloud 9 only a dollar more than golden

[tepid perch]

im lookin

[valid abyss]

they do the same thing early game

golden joker is a bargain if you ask me

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[tranquil cargo]

then you're gonna hate this update, it involves a ton of bloodstone synergy

[proven gulch]

whats it do

[burnt topaz]

…
…
…
…Does Mime Retrigger blackboard?

[proven gulch]

no

[burnt topaz]

Alright

[proven gulch]

blackboard is independent

[tranquil cargo]

there's even a new rare joker called stone of blood, it makes all hearts have a 1 in 2 chance to give you a negative bloodstone

[burnt topaz]

Just randomly popped into my head and I was curious

[proper flame]

Blackboard doesn't trigger cards, it triggers the Joker based off of your cards

[burnt topaz]

If it did that would be really cool

[robust lance]

this
smaller hand (with like ecto and shit would remove dollars from the end of round pay out)

[burnt topaz]

And also bring a whole new use to mine outside of Baron

[robust lance]

its fun but kinda unbalanced

[muted fiber]

sold the photo, found another photo, should i sell the cat and buy it?

[quartz flicker]

BROOOOOOO i hate being on controller. i accidentaly didnt click a card so i didnt play the flush and losttttttt

[burnt topaz]

Here was a deck idea I had:
Franken-Deck
Has the ability of 2 random other decks.
X2 base blind size.

[white zodiac]

mime and blackboard are already game winners, there's no need

[shell dagger]

Does it take on negative effects

[burnt topaz]

What do we think?

Yes

[shell dagger]

Plasma and black becomes shithard

[burnt topaz]

Yeah

[vernal bay]

Literally no negative skips smhmh

[shell dagger]

Actually it’s all just hard

[burnt topaz]

Painted and black would suck

[white zodiac]

wait did you say you had like 15 more stickers left for plasma earlier today

[shell dagger]

13

[burnt topaz]

Congrats!

[vernal bay]

Droll has showed up like 4 times, do I just gold stake them? In this one shop

[fervent wolf]

Ty!

[shell dagger]

Should’ve been 11 but i bottom decked my aces and lost

[white zodiac]

omg bruh I'm still on 34%

[shell dagger]

Tbf a lot of plasma winning builds are joker agnostic

[robust lance]

"If I immolate i'll at worst lose 2 9s"
loses 2 9s (thats 2 less dollars)

[shell dagger]

I feel

[quartz flicker]

the streak is back to 0

[white zodiac]

what streak

[white zodiac]

ig

tbf I've liked played a total of 4 hours this entire week

[shell dagger]

Like I’ve had 3 or so runs where i just got bull early af then farmed money then found unstickered jokers

[proper flame]

Any fellow CASTLE enjoyers in chat

I woke up today thinking about Castle

[shell dagger]

And a good few you build such a good 4oak you can win with whatever

[fervent wolf]

Anti Stuntman deck

[quartz flicker]

winning on plasma 15 times in a row

[stark karma]

bus or money?

[quartz flicker]

i was at 3 now im back at 0

[proper flame]

Youre on black deck, save money

[wintry ice]

i would take bus

[shell dagger]

Bus

[stark karma]

lol

ok

[wintry ice]

it's not difficult to scale it alongside runner

[stark karma]

yeah

[wintry ice]

even with black deck sucking

[stark karma]

was just worried about econ

[vernal bay]

Yay.

[proper flame]

tbf when you deck fix for straights, you ideally want to get rid of face cards anyways i think?

[white zodiac]

only problem is three 2 pairs isn't enough to beat the boss blind

assuming runner is at 0

[robust lance]

its actually not that bad

[wintry ice]

i mean even then

[robust lance]

you'll just lose 2 dollars at the end

[wintry ice]

there's not much he could have done about that

[balmy ridge]

[white zodiac]

don't ask how ik that

wait I made it out

[terse vale]

well ya u did

[wintry ice]

did you not aim to discard ace to face cards

[serene forge]

not skill issue

[white zodiac]

I recommend you try not to force a straight every time

just when convenient

[terse vale]

ooooh black deck

[wintry ice]

runner isn't something you need to actively scale yeah

[terse vale]

[white zodiac]

yar

[burnt topaz]

Rank these custom Jokers I thought of right now best to worst:
Chip Stacker
+70 chips for each joker that gives Chips. (Including this one)
Flashbang
Sell to destroy all cards held in hand and draw a new card.
Serpenski’s Triangle
X3 Mult per joker with the number 3 on it (Not including this one)
ABZ
If all other jokers begin with the same letter, this joker gains x1 mult for each joker after the 2nd.
Basic Bob
Standard Packs are Free.

[wintry ice]

you can get it to like 135 and leabe it be

[white zodiac]

text boomscare

[robust lance]

I can get 2 more bucks with this joker alone

[quartz flicker]

there should be a decl where you lose 20 percent of your money at the end of the round but you gain 2 negative tarot cards at end of round(showman effect is always on) does that sound fire?

[wintry ice]

any joker that destroys cards is pretty hsrd to balance

[burnt topaz]

I don’t plan for them to be good

[stark karma]

it just had to be the wall

[robust lance]

whats with the blunder super reacts

[burnt topaz]

I just want a ranking on these concepts

[white zodiac]

there should be a deck that balances my score but doubles the blind requirements

[opal delta]

hi everyone

[stark karma]

this is so dumb

[burnt topaz]

I know they suck I don’t care

[stark karma]

some are kinda okay

basic bob I like

[wintry ice]

abz would be difficult to make use of

basic bob is fine

[burnt topaz]

Yes but if it hits it HITS

[stark karma]

ohhhh wow

love this game design

[serene forge]

using abz so i can use bloodstone and baron and blueprint together and lose

[wintry ice]

what do you think people here feel about idol, baron and bloodstone

[lament crater]

there should be a deck that adds the left and right scores together rather than multipling them

[serene forge]

oof

[burnt topaz]

X3 Mult on top of the most luck based build of all time,

[stark karma]

🙃

[robust lance]

skong??? like Super donkey Kong!

[burnt topaz]

Is there a single well known combo that is compatible with abz?

[serene forge]

shong

skattershong

[white zodiac]

the rest of the alphabet

[burnt topaz]

I mean there’s blueprint brainstorm but is that really a combo?

[wintry ice]

me using abz with constellation, card sharp and castle

[burnt topaz]

I mean like synergy

[burnt topaz]

Not bad

Now get canio

[balmy ridge]

yes :D

[serene forge]

oh

[burnt topaz]

Vagabond and vampire on top of abz would be x2 mult

[serene forge]

square joker, spare trousers, space joker

[stark karma]

but think of the scaling

[red thistle]

Bankrupt but win.

trick question they're both square

[robust lance]

nah

[tepid perch]

bruh

[stark karma]

new question

[hearty dagger]

Do I have them set up right?

[robust lance]

like this modded deck I have

[lunar zealot]

save your money right now

buy that rebate

[stark karma]

damn ok

[white zodiac]

ok cool you didn't get outright punished

[lunar zealot]

NO

BUT TYHE RBERAT

[red thistle]

@lunar zealot yo mama so fat she's the reason flat earth conspiracy exists.

[lunar zealot]

IM BIND

I CANT EAD INM A BALTRO APLAYTER

[stark karma]

hahahah

[quartz flicker]

i think one on ancient one on chad?

[stark karma]

I'm getting it

I thought it was right

[lament crater]

hit and a miss from the baseball card

[white zodiac]

I canmt spell inm a baltro playr

[stark karma]

miscalculated

fuuuuuck

[lament crater]

stop miscalculating

[stark karma]

tried to greed for 5s

[lament crater]

the calculator app exists

[quartz flicker]

how much is the higher chance?

[red thistle]

"my momma's kinda econless"

[white zodiac]

you can't really greed on black deck past the first hand

[lament crater]

how can you miscalculate with a calculator app on your phone and pc

[stark karma]

true

[white zodiac]

so much for my ante 6 prediction

[fervent wolf]

These were my vouchers

[quartz flicker]

damn

[red thistle]

Basically all the good ones.

[balmy ridge]

mmm

[quartz flicker]

is hone good?

[balmy ridge]

with telescope if you have multiple hands with the same plays, i assume it just picks randomly between them?

[wintry ice]

all the good ones and petroglyph trollface

[stark karma]

I''m cooking now

[red thistle]

No.

[wintry ice]

hone is effectively blank voucher

[balmy ridge]

there are definetely better vouchers

[fervent wolf]

Sadly never got nacho tong

[white zodiac]

hone is essentially the tariff tax of balatro

[quartz flicker]

magic trick the best voucher in the game\

[red thistle]

Only thing's gonna change is slightly more econ if you had parking or some shit.

[fervent wolf]

I was doing serpent and burglar tho

So I was missing out on 3 more red seal gold kings

[stark karma]

FUCK FUCK FUCK AAAAAAAAA

[hybrid tendon]

whate are you trying to do with gold red seals ?

[quartz flicker]

take planet merchant

[red thistle]

Money.

[fervent wolf]

Didn't you see me naneinf, so I was running baron mime

[stark karma]

why are there so many fucking decisions in this game ToT

I hate this

rental matador or trading card

[quartz flicker]

take trading card

[fervent wolf]

Buffoon card in the credit pack

[white zodiac]

it's not training card btw

[stark karma]

but imagine how awesome the rental matador is

[red thistle]

Skip.

[red thistle]

Training my deck.

[quartz flicker]

reroll

[white zodiac]

buffoon and matador depending on boss blind

[red thistle]

Bbtw skip the jokers in the shop nnot the buffon pack.

[fervent wolf]

There should be a voucher that adds one more pack slot to shop

[tepid perch]

who goes for hack

[quartz flicker]

what would its upgraded version be?

[shell dagger]

trading card on black deck this early just kills you i think

[fervent wolf]

+1 sorta like overstock

[white zodiac]

(it does)

[quartz flicker]

so 2 extra slots with the upgraded version?

[serene forge]

trading card overrated tbh

[shell dagger]

nahhh

[white zodiac]

you're either not going to use it for the next two antes or to risk seeing 9 less cards than usual

[fervent wolf]

Yes

[quartz flicker]

dont talk to my precious trading card that way. youre hurting his feelings

[tepid perch]

arrowhead, showman or rebait

[red thistle]

There should be a voucher that increases the effectiveness of tarot cards.

[quartz flicker]

wayyy too op

[tepid perch]

FUCK

who goes for brainstorm???

[fervent wolf]

What if the first version was a blank like antimatter and the second one added a pack slot to shop

[quartz flicker]

just make the second one add plus 1 option for all packs

[eternal anchor]

Not my screenshot. A friend of mine got a Royal Flush with the queen being a different suit even though they only have Four Fingers

[tepid perch]

imma say one of the perkeos has to go

[red thistle]

The condition for a strush are having a straight and a flush in the same 5 cards.

Or in the same hand.

[serene forge]

it's a flush and a straight

[fervent wolf]

Would be cool

[red thistle]

Gonna sleep, bye.

[quartz flicker]

or maybe increase thje chance of tarot and spectral packs appearing by 10 percent

[hybrid tendon]

but why not steels if you want to naneinf

[serene forge]

[atomic olive]

Balatro is bad

[white zodiac]

gn streaks

[fervent wolf]

Steels were not needed

[fervent wolf]

-2/10 ragebait

[eternal anchor]

that deck is a goddamn tower

[hybrid tendon]

huh... alright then

[fervent wolf]

Empire state building deck

[lunar zealot]

get a room

[serene forge]

shut up kami go to your crib

it's late

[lunar zealot]

[safe moat]

British people sipping their tea nodding in agreement

[safe moat]

[safe moat]

Hush

[balmy ridge]

DUDE

[left juniper]

o7 Yorick though 🙁

[safe moat]

He was just obtained

[balmy ridge]

where's swashbuckler...

[safe moat]

On three separate accounts I saw my entire hand being debuffed I faced the plant the club and verdant leaf

[lunar zealot]

triboulet before turtle bean is criminal

[balmy ridge]

ive done the bean glitch

[fervent wolf]

Lmaooo

[balmy ridge]

[proven gulch]

peak deckfixing

[proven gulch]

what does this mean

stickers?

[balmy ridge]

yurp

[proven gulch]

blue is gold?

[balmy ridge]

what

[lunar zealot]

rarity

[balmy ridge]

the ones with a tick

[lunar zealot]

lmfao

[balmy ridge]

are gold

oh yeah they're colored by rarity

[proven gulch]

oh

[balmy ridge]

blue is common

green is uncommon and red is rare

[proven gulch]

lmao i thought they were the sticker type and you were schizophrenic

[balmy ridge]

what does that have to do with anything

[twin lantern]

i got baron + dna + blueprint
first ante, first rerolls

[balmy ridge]

the humble hologram:

[twin lantern]

bet

[serene forge]

I hate Baron

[serene forge]

i forgor

[balmy ridge]

[serene forge]

yes

[twin lantern]

steel king factory WWWWW

[balmy ridge]

is that it

[serene forge]

i love my gf

[balmy ridge]

-o-

[balmy ridge]

do gold first

i cant get over how PUTRID and STINKY negative chiclets looks

[humble gulch]

He looks great, it looks like camouflage

Considering that Chicot was also a war leader, that only makes him better

[robust iris]

💯

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[abstract rivet]

U got retriggers?

[vale wharf]

Always remember, throwback is the goat

[heady narwhal]

is this mr bones?

[limpid gate]

Well a version without mr bones and frame perfects but basically

[dire sapphire]

bro throws it back

[vale wharf]

Say that again...

[limpid gate]

Couldnt agree more

[vale wharf]

Ummm, does matador trigger psychic? I might swap one of my jokers to get $24

[heady narwhal]

yes

[vale wharf]

Ante 138 😭

Is this pic fake?!

[limpid gate]

Nope

Bugs are funny 🙂

[vale wharf]

I'm not sure if I should go ahead with it, though 🫠

[heady narwhal]

how does this one work

[vale wharf]

How did it happen?

[limpid gate]

Frame perfect opening pack, leaving shop. Then, frame perfect start blind and skip blind, then skipping the pack mid blind to go back to shop

Repeated a few hundred times

[heady narwhal]

neat

[limpid gate]

Wish I had a macro for it

Would save me hours of my life

[vale wharf]

Throwback is MY goat

[fervent wolf]

[vale wharf]

Well, I started this run to mainly get the club and diamond x30 jokers

But... things took a turn

[limpid gate]

You should use a negative version of the ceremonial dagger on the steam page (as seen below, but like negative)

[safe moat]

Hey look my name is true now

[cosmic sun]

where is the green stench

[limpid gate]

It didnt exist in the past

[cosmic sun]

dagger didn't shower for a YEAR

[limpid gate]

28281 high cards 😭

[limpid gate]

Thats why it eventually got stinky

[crystal field]

dagger is a redditor

[limpid gate]

Real

[balmy ridge]

hhhmmmm is flower pot still active

if i play diamonds

[crystal field]

no

gotta score

[balmy ridge]

in theory they're still diamonds but idk

[balmy ridge]

man

dead to the fucking window 🥀

its never been more over

[crystal field]

fpot is cheeks

and tbh any joker dealing w suits is kinda bad

hey nice almost to c++ tho

[balmy ridge]

fork found in kitchen ass comment

it

makes me use my brain too much

[vale wharf]

What does flopot do?

[crystal field]

x3 if u have a scoring card of each suit

[vale wharf]

Oh, that one 😭

It should be x4 at least

[balmy ridge]

its the only xmult i've found the whole run

[crystal field]

its so bad tho

[echo pivot]

Flower Pot still works on debuffed cards

[crystal field]

😭

[vale wharf]

Who needs xmult when you can have bull, boots and a ton o' cash?

[crystal field]

well

[balmy ridge]

i think it does

[crystal field]

you still do tbh

[crystal field]

orly?

[balmy ridge]

i was scoring like 80k with fp active and about 30 without

[echo pivot]

It doesn't require that the card scores, just that it is in the poker hand

[crystal field]

did not know this

[balmy ridge]

and my last hand scored 86k

[crystal field]

that do be a x3 difference

[balmy ridge]

rough estimates

[mortal nimbus]

it does, but debuffed wild cards are bugged. They don't count as any suit for flower pot, not even the suit it has ignoring the enhancement

[crystal field]

Ohhh interesting

another reason to hate the current wild cards

[balmy ridge]

i survived! :D

[crystal field]

pog

[balmy ridge]

what did you just call me?

[crystal field]

uhm

😅

[balmy ridge]

:D

didnt get any stickers but this was a super fun run

only 3 jonklers too

[tepid perch]

idol

[proper flame]

They should make it to where every Joker with a unique card shape (Including those such as Vagabond and Brainstorm) retain that shape when flipped instead of just Wee, Half, square, and photo

[crystal field]

fiower pot win

[balmy ridge]

maybe im wrong but wouldn't you want equal copies of hack and idol?

[crystal field]

ye

3 idols 3 hacks would be ideal

[tepid perch]

alr

[balmy ridge]

yeah i think that's optimal

[tepid perch]

rip

goated run tho

[crystal field]

ggz

i love hack

[tepid perch]

hack and sock are the best

[atomic trout]

I feel sick. I had to sell brainstorm. I had two

[mortal nimbus]

why? abstract wouldn't have given that much value considering how much you should've gotten from burnt, and with how the joker order works

[atomic trout]

The Final Boss wants you to cut off your Joker

It's like cutting a finger LOL

[mortal nimbus]

yeah, so sell abstract instead of brainstorm

[atomic trout]

Oh yeh

[mortal nimbus]

or don't sell anything as 27x mult should be enough even through debuffed cards

you can score without selling against verdant

[atomic trout]

I totally forgot that I could just high card through Debuffs

[vital grove]

Close call

[atomic trout]

There I go

[dire crater]

q nub

[atomic trout]

Has anyone ever want to share stats?

[dire crater]

No que miedo w

[atomic trout]

Compared to Dr. specter?

[dire crater]

i dont like to share stats

[atomic trout]

Sed

[thick mountain]

ummmm whah happen?

[atomic trout]

You're at Ante 15? Damn

Plasma deck

[thick mountain]

double rebate no showman

bugging out idk why

[dire crater]

holy cows

[atomic trout]

I never liked his shows. He always ruined my run

[atomic trout]

Speak of the devil, Showman

[dire crater]

I took your show man sorry

[thick mountain]

showman is goated.

but i shouldn't be seeing another rebate

[atomic trout]

Showman sucks. Showmanship is 🔥

[thick mountain]

so was curious what happened.

[dire crater]

Ooooo my stomach

[atomic trout]

..?

[dire crater]

golden joker or suck and the other guy

i forgot the name

Jock

[atomic trout]

Gold is nice

[thick mountain]

I have rebate in my line up and am seeing a rebate in shop without having the showman.

Which shouldn't happen.

[dire crater]

Sock and buskin? That name is awful

[atomic trout]

What's the plan with Show?

[dire crater]

Tragicomedia sounds better

[balmy ridge]

good god

[atomic trout]

Showman the door?

[dire crater]

fortune teller doing nothing

[balmy ridge]

i'm aware!!!

[night turret]

What jokers do you guys suggest to hunt for in the challenge

[balmy ridge]

but he doesn't hurt

[dire crater]

Im chattier

[balmy ridge]

as a rental

[dire crater]

W h a t

[balmy ridge]

ii mean

no im tired

if he was a rental

id sell it obviously

but it doesn't hurt to have

im going for stickers so if i find something i dont have a sticker on ill swap it

or chad

[dire crater]

brainstorm cant copy showman

[atomic trout]

Typecast was haaaard. I got Lucky with burnt Joker and brainstorm

[balmy ridge]

i mean

it can

it's incompatible

[dire crater]

[night turret]

Do you remember what you beat it with

[lyric shore]

just do any scaling

[night turret]

Throwback?

[fervent wolf]

How come Burglar is copyable but Merry Andy isn't

[atomic trout]

No. But I do remember Burnt and Brainstorm. Basically free high card from Ante 1. I meant

[crystal field]

alr place ur bets for invis

[heavy hare]

on everyone's soul throwback is a great joker trust

[balmy ridge]

i don't remember typecast standing out as a difficult one

[fervent wolf]

Castle

[balmy ridge]

❌ ❌ ❌

[crystal field]

PLEASE Dont be castle

[atomic trout]

It took me too many tries. I wasn't good at the game. But I was Lucky

[night turret]

Rude the bud

[balmy ridge]

i don't think castle would hurt too bad

[atomic trout]

Jokerless and Golden Needle made the game really not fun

It's my last two

[crystal field]

it was bus

phew

[night turret]

@crystal field what’d you get

[balmy ridge]

jokerless was really really fun

[night turret]

LETS GOOO

[balmy ridge]

golden needle was

self-harm inducing

[crystal field]

golden needle i think i accidently did first try

[fervent wolf]

This made the game not fun

First red deck mobile naneinf

[balmy ridge]

that is a deck of all time

THEY HIT THE SECOND TOWER

[atomic trout]

Losing to a few points

[fervent wolf]

OKAY

That's insane

[night turret]

Medusa i wanna say was the EASIEST

[atomic trout]

You lose to Golden Needle like any perma-death

[night turret]

As soon as I got hologram, I was hitting so much

[balmy ridge]

I MEAN

oops caps

[atomic trout]

Start over! Golden Needle

[fervent wolf]

If I would've had Shortcut

[balmy ridge]

marble joker and hologram is just a good synergy

[balmy ridge]

lol mb

[night turret]

Lmao “score at least naf”

[fervent wolf]

Yes

[crystal field]

same for the other jokers who add cards each rounf

so certificate

[balmy ridge]

[dire crater]

me when i forgot about burnt joker for the 157# time

[crystal field]

[clever nest]

[crystal field]

RIP

needle's color is ominous af

[balmy ridge]

play slow

[dire crater]

Omg

[crystal field]

the mouths color is so calming and then i accidently play something that i cant draw more than once

[dire crater]

[crystal field]

balatro is chessicle in nature

[signal frigate]

Well, he's going for a highscore

[dire crater]

why your game is on spanish

[atomic trout]

Because I'm Mexican. And I like games in Spanish, lol

Also, I like to learn new words. There's a lot.

[dire crater]

Nacho

[signal frigate]

Hotline Miami?

[dire crater]

No, celeste

[signal frigate]

That pfp

It looks like an HM mask

[atomic trout]

LOL, no, like the game over, what Jimbo says

[dire crater]

Yeah right

[signal frigate]

You can do it seeded

[dire crater]

How weird

[signal frigate]

Oh nevermind

That's a different run

[atomic trout]

And I like it spanish, deal with it

[signal frigate]

I need sleep

[dire crater]

Barajar y dar de nuevo

[atomic trout]

It shoud say "Perdiste Pendejo!"

[dire crater]

Talcual

[atomic trout]

But then the game would be Mature.

[dire crater]

"Valiste madre"

Omg another brainstorm

This is my lucky day
