[clever nest]

[atomic trout]

Beyond that, Bloodstones sucks.

[crystal field]

lucky cat is probably my favorite scaling xmult joker

[balmy ridge]

you kinda need lots of retriggers and lucky cards for it to be effective

[dire crater]

Always bet it all on skips

[crystal field]

i bias towards lucky and gold cards

[twilit hedge]

Hey I didnt manage to mess up an obelisk run!

[balmy ridge]

[atomic trout]

I mean, am sorry.

[crystal field]

[lyric shore]

wheres bus

[crystal field]

[atomic trout]

I never liked it, lol

[balmy ridge]

you realise it goes from a 1/20 to 2/20? not worth it

[dire crater]

its a trick dice

[lyric shore]

you like nova and not bus?

[crystal field]

but is better than green boy

[atomic trout]

Yet Square Joker has been a curse

[dire crater]

Bus sucks

[atomic trout]

I high card.

[dire crater]

[twilit hedge]

I dont care lol it was funny

[balmy ridge]

[crystal field]

BUSSSSS

[lyric shore]

bus is easily best of the 3

[crystal field]

🚌

[twilit hedge]

Almost a 7x obelisk

[crystal field]

are u team grimbo, bus, supernova, or red card?

[twilit hedge]

and like a +60 buss

[balmy ridge]

i skip bus most of the time

[dire crater]

super nova does exactly the same without rules

[atomic trout]

It never made sense with the Legendaries. I never saw 53.

[balmy ridge]

red card? are we serious?

[twilit hedge]

Supernova, bus sometimes

[crystal field]

red card is expensie

[balmy ridge]

grimbo has fun synergies

[lyric shore]

it only works with 1 hand so its a lot worse

[balmy ridge]

delgrat, banner etc

[crystal field]

ramen

❤️

[balmy ridge]

YES

i mean

[dire crater]

If by grinbo you mean green joker that guy its just so sad

[crystal field]

thats so true

[balmy ridge]

ramen delgrat banner grimbo is money, fmult, xmult and chips all in one

[dire crater]

I would never use it without burglar

[crystal field]

hes sad and worthless as fuck but hes still good enough to win

💔

[dire crater]

Only with burglar

[lyric shore]

hows he worthless

[balmy ridge]

?

[atomic trout]

Should I skip?

[balmy ridge]

green boy is amazing

[crystal field]

without burglar its still good enough

[balmy ridge]

no

[past crag]

Is there's new joker

[atomic trout]

But I wanna Crack an Egg 🙁

[balmy ridge]

thats stupid

[crystal field]

[atomic trout]

I may be stupid. But it's money?

[coral summit]

I JUST GOT INVISIBLE JOKER FROM JUDGEMENT???

[dire crater]

cool

[past crag]

Fo real are userious

[coral summit]

[balmy ridge]

[atomic trout]

Its common XD

[crystal field]

yes

[balmy ridge]

rare

[crystal field]

im always serious

[coral summit]

It’s rare

[dire crater]

Rare

[past crag]

Do you promise me

[crystal field]

im always 100% deadass….

yes

[balmy ridge]

jonathan wick over here

[past crag]

If you're lying we cant be friends anymore

[balmy ridge]

he's lying

[atomic trout]

Holy, really

[crystal field]

if we were friends, would I lie to you?

[atomic trout]

?

[balmy ridge]

brainstorm has existed for over a year

[crystal field]

trust me

[coral summit]

Idk what to do because like

It’s not like I could have two pareidolia

[balmy ridge]

are you ragebaiting or what

[coral summit]

I wouldn’t want that

[crystal field]

u could

why not

[coral summit]

It would be bad

That’s why

[crystal field]

true

[balmy ridge]

you sell pareidolia for interest and hope to find something better

[crystal field]

it would be horrible

[atomic trout]

Noooo. I never knew!

[crystal field]

but u can still do it

[atomic trout]

RARAW

[coral summit]

I guess…

[crystal field]

(actual 0/2)

[atomic trout]

Wait

[past crag]

Im going to kill my self for real

[balmy ridge]

yes

🔥

stream it?

[atomic trout]

The mentioned JUDGEMENT card.

[balmy ridge]

yes

[atomic trout]

That's totally normal.

[coral summit]

Dude.

[past crag]

Only if you empty your wallet

[coral summit]

The idea of two free Negative Jokers is making me sweat.

[balmy ridge]

pareidolia does literally nothing on its own and it's unlikely that you'll find any synergies, it's worthless and you shouldn't have used hex on it

[crystal field]

as a friend I cannot let you sell your life

[atomic trout]

It Randomly creates a Joker. Can it do Legendaries?

[balmy ridge]

probably gonna have to use aura to survive

[crystal field]

no amount of money is worth that

[coral summit]

I am doing everything in my power to resist skipping this whole ante.

[vale wharf]

Y'all, how do I unlock these two easily?

[past crag]

Quiet you are nothing

[atomic trout]

Does anybody know if Judgement can create a Legendary?

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[mortal nimbus]

judgement cannot make legendaries

[balmy ridge]

no. shut the fuck up and stop ragebaiting

[crystal field]

and you are beautiful. You are smart enough. Keep living twin

[atomic trout]

I like this chat.

[bleak seal]

Succumb to your instincts... make the bad play... do it.

[serene forge]

[past crag]

Kisses you open mouth smelly white tongues tied

[balmy ridge]

holy flashbang

[coral summit]

Fuck you’re right

[vale wharf]

It can, but it has to be a spectral judgement. I think it's called soul or something

[balmy ridge]

scroll up man its all he does

[crystal field]

oh

[atomic trout]

But it wasn't ragebaiting?

[balmy ridge]

why is your tongue smelly

[past crag]

My bad

[atomic trout]

I was actually curious. lol

The icon is a cat, lol

[vale wharf]

Bro, chill 😭

[crystal field]

[past crag]

Too much kitty

[balmy ridge]

[crystal field]

LOL

[balmy ridge]

[atomic trout]

Don't worry about that young sprout.

[balmy ridge]

[insert duck smoking cigarette shaking his head gif]

[crystal field]

[serene forge]

they died to the head on ante 2 round 2

[crystal field]

ways to do things

[serene forge]

lmfao

[balmy ridge]

[crystal field]

español

[atomic trout]

Mexican Spanish*

There's Spain and that's gross.

[balmy ridge]

which differs from regular spanish how?

[crystal field]

YEPPPP

[crystal zodiac]

So if I beat a deck on a seeded run. Then I will not unlock the next stake right?

[crystal field]

💯

[balmy ridge]

true

[atomic trout]

Spain Spanish is like Old English. It's just added more rules.

[bleak seal]

Yea

[crystal field]

and spain is cringe

[balmy ridge]

[atomic trout]

And I like the Spanish in games.

[balmy ridge]

i think so

[atomic trout]

What's up with Black Deck? I like the extra Joker.

[past crag]

My favorite animals is monkeys

[bleak seal]

Yes

[atomic trout]

Oh... I keep losing.

[crystal field]

-1 hand is suffocating

[balmy ridge]

that is awesome

[bleak seal]

All in on black 100% of the time

[acoustic kettle]

Monke

[atomic trout]

Imagine the Original game, it was -1 Hand on Gold Stakes

[past crag]

I know 😎

[crystal field]

yeah so 2 hands

💔

the og players were built different

[balmy ridge]

wooah this guy is cool dont mess with him!!!!

[vale wharf]

That's messed up 😭

[atomic trout]

How can I play poker with NO HANDS?

[lyric shore]

it was handsize

[crystal field]

oh

[atomic trout]

Don't blame me, LOL

[vale wharf]

Wait, what does gold stake do now?

[crystal field]

😭

[languid pecan]

going well so far

[past crag]

I'll let my beast out and go crazy all over the place

[balmy ridge]

rentals

[vale wharf]

Oh

[atomic trout]

You can buy Rental Jokers, they cost -3 per round

[balmy ridge]

oh flip oh crap gosh im sorry!!! pees my pants

[atomic trout]

And are $1

[kind creek]

black deck riff raff ante 1

my beloved

[atomic trout]

Perfect for the campfire

[vale wharf]

Rentals ain't that big of an issue, I buy them and then sell them before the round ends

$1 for a temporary buff

[past crag]

Sips it up it's okay bud just don't forget it

[crystal field]

yes rentals are actually cool as hell

[balmy ridge]

hey what the fuck?

im crine bru

i crode

[past crag]

Dont question alpha

[crystal field]

👀

[balmy ridge]

btw idol never hits

how can you be a fan of it

[atomic trout]

I once bought Eternal Rental Egg

[past crag]

Grrrr...

[crystal field]

castle never hits

[bleak seal]

my brother in christ you took ante 1 anteglyph into ante 1 petroglyph ON black deck
you spent 20 dollars to do smth you admit is messed up 😭

[atomic trout]

Castle sucks. It scales as slow as a knight climbing up a stairway

[crystal field]

i got the castle sticker today… castle wants diamonds i draw like 2 total diamonds

[balmy ridge]

that is stupid

[past crag]

Idol is the only joker you can use to get to naninf

[atomic trout]

ANd good fucking luck on Purple Stakes

[balmy ridge]

castle does NOT suck do not dare diss castle never ever

[kind creek]

that's, in theory, a possible benefit from temlerances

[balmy ridge]

erm.. nurp

[atomic trout]

I just had the worst luck XD

I suq

[past crag]

Shhhh....

[crystal field]

Castle so chopped

sorry

[balmy ridge]

really? :3

[kind creek]

you can force it to work on every card just like idol

[bleak seal]

me when I waste 20 dollars for 0 upside

[vale wharf]

Well, yes, but I had a HUGE advantage
It's not my fault I'm stoopid and messed up the run 😭

[languid pecan]

hmm

[kind creek]

though you don't need every card to be the same, just the suit

[balmy ridge]

and an absurd amount of downside, lol

[bleak seal]

tell me what this huge advantage is please

[acoustic kettle]

Dagr

[languid pecan]

i wish i didnt have supernova rn tbh

on black deck atleast

[balmy ridge]

@bleak seal is that your cat

on profile

[bleak seal]

Yeah

[balmy ridge]

awsome

he looks a little fat but its ok because we love him anyway

[vale wharf]

More starting $ + I had two brainstorms

[balmy ridge]

2 brainstorm?S?S?!

[crystal field]

its pair time

[atomic trout]

Black Deck is hard.

[languid pecan]

heck no

[acoustic kettle]

I'm harder

[languid pecan]

two pair

[acoustic kettle]

[crystal field]

riff raff got u for chips

[bleak seal]

He is a fatty and I love him

[languid pecan]

on black deck pairs arent enough

[crystal field]

trust

[vocal mantle]

first ever black deck gold stake!

[crystal field]

😈

[balmy ridge]

errm

[balmy ridge]

good job

[languid pecan]

what

[balmy ridge]

is his name crumpet? or is that your name

[balmy ridge]

not necessarily true

[bleak seal]

3 extra dollars yeah but when did the brainstorms come into play 😭😭

[bleak seal]

I'm crumpet hes chewtie

[languid pecan]

yeah its not exactly true but on black deck its more consistent to do two pair instead of pairs

[vale wharf]

Harder: I'm Harder
Black deck: No, I'm harder
Hardest: Well, I'm hardest
Well: Nice to meet you, Hardest
You: It's a pleasure

[bleak seal]

Cutie + chew

[balmy ridge]

early on you need 5card hands to win on black deck but with enough support pairs can suffice

[balmy ridge]

chewtie is an interesting name, not one i've heard before lol

[vale wharf]

Around ante 3

[bleak seal]

The original owners named him that and we liked it

[atomic trout]

Should I Wrath?

[balmy ridge]

god man im SO close to c++ but ive been playing all day i cant be fucked

[crystal field]

either way supernova is prob fine right

[balmy ridge]

sell jimbo for wraith

[atomic trout]

Awww okaaay

[bleak seal]

okay so all you had to do was get to ante 5 and you'd have 2 brainstorms AND your hands and discards

[languid pecan]

alas

[bleak seal]

Lowk medium is better here imo

[languid pecan]

(i dont lose i just bottom decked the one card i wanted to for $$$)

[vale wharf]

Hindsight is 20/20

[bleak seal]

hindsight is not required to know

-20 dollars and your hands and discards is bad

[balmy ridge]

why?

i think wraith is better but

even if you don't take it surely blue seal is the next best

[signal frigate]

You can't unlock anything in seeded runs

[bleak seal]

Tarot generation is nice, and helps with the money issue

[signal frigate]

Why would wraith be better than a purple?

[crystal field]

i would have probably ignored the wraith and taken the blue seal

😔

[bleak seal]

Like 1 purple seal can often quickly snowball into like 20, and lead to practically, infinite tarots

[balmy ridge]

idk maybe i just gamble too much

[balmy ridge]

same with blue seals though

very valuable

[lyric shore]

blue seal doesnt snowball itself

[bleak seal]

Blue seals do not duplicate.

[signal frigate]

Blue and Purple are the best spectral cards

[vale wharf]

Do challenges count toward unlock progress?

[crystal field]

immolate

[signal frigate]

You can still get a bunch of them in your deck so you're guaranteed a planet or two

[signal frigate]

That's third imo

[bleak seal]

Not without proper tarot generation and econ.

[crystal field]

depends on econ situation

[signal frigate]

Long term, the seals are good

[languid pecan]

i think i die

[signal frigate]

Immolate does solve alot of your early issues

[balmy ridge]

i like immolate because it goes BOOOMM

[signal frigate]

$20 dollar for a free deckfix is always gonna be strong

[bleak seal]

Medium > tarots > econ > freedom

[bleak seal]

For sure

[coral summit]

Can someone explain why this doesn’t work

[languid pecan]

o7

[coral summit]

Like for all intents and purposes this should be a straight, no?

[crystal field]

basically if i dont have many important cards in hand its immolate

[signal frigate]

What do you think is after King?

[bleak seal]

You dont have four fingers

[languid pecan]

why would this be a straight?

[bleak seal]

O7

[signal frigate]

3 straights is Ace to 5

[balmy ridge]

it goes one way or the other

[signal frigate]

You're trying to insert a 3 in an Ace to 10 straight

[coral summit]

I was told an Ace is 1 and 10 simultaneously, so shouldn’t Ace be able to go to 2?

[balmy ridge]

ace can act as a 1 or as 10, not both

[bleak seal]

3 options that actually do something and then hex spectral cards are really funny

[vale wharf]

Is this PC or mobile?

[balmy ridge]

well

11

[signal frigate]

It counts as a higher rank than King and a number before 2

[atomic trout]

Look. Im desperate

[languid pecan]

pc

[bleak seal]

Ace act as a 14 or 1

[balmy ridge]

yeah yeah man

[vale wharf]

How can I get the ui mods?

[balmy ridge]

i cant count that high

[languid pecan]

balatro mod manager

[lyric shore]

so why not take xmult 😭

[balmy ridge]

it scores 11 chips

[signal frigate]

Bro

Seeing Double

[languid pecan]

isnt it 11?

[atomic trout]

Whaaat?

[signal frigate]

Is right there

[atomic trout]

It's the Omellete

[signal frigate]

You should've taken that Seeing Double

[crystal field]

i think in traditional cards its considered as being 1 or 11

[signal frigate]

Yeah but that's score

[bleak seal]

10
Jack 11
Queen 12
King 13
Ace 14

[balmy ridge]

im telling you this guy is just here to ragebait

[atomic trout]

The hell is Seeing Double? XD

[balmy ridge]

^

[signal frigate]

Actually, 15x2 is alot of score

[balmy ridge]

it scores 11 chips

that's how i prefer to classify it

for simplicity

[atomic trout]

Sure. I'm just chatting. 🙂

[coral summit]

I was doomed to lose

[balmy ridge]

face cards too

[languid pecan]

x2 if you score both a club and a non club in the same hand

[signal frigate]

Also, omelette isn't the money challenge

[atomic trout]

That Joker to me is situational.

[bleak seal]

Sure whatever

[signal frigate]

It's one of the best ante 8 xmult jokers.

[languid pecan]

you had the situation

[crystal field]

seeing double come in clutch

[languid pecan]

if youre playing pair or 2 pair especially

[balmy ridge]

are you mad at me :(

[bleak seal]

You just need to not play a flush

[atomic trout]

Damn another Egg broken

[bleak seal]

Nah

[signal frigate]

Two pair and pair works with it

[balmy ridge]

^_^

im gonna play the best greatest deck to ever exist for the last 4 gold stickers

[atomic trout]

What now?

[signal frigate]

You have a horrendous lineup

[atomic trout]

Oh wait

[coral summit]

I’ll try this deck again tomorrow

[balmy ridge]

par 🔥

[atomic trout]

Level 4 Flush, its Color

[coral summit]

I think I was just really greedy tonight

Kept taking skip tags

[balmy ridge]

black i assume?

[atomic trout]

Will do

[signal frigate]

Never do that

[crystal field]

bad bad

[coral summit]

Ghost

Yes I know bad

[crystal field]

big trouble

[vale wharf]

Póker

[coral summit]

That’s why I’m stopping for the night

[bleak seal]

Only take investment

[coral summit]

I know

[languid pecan]

try a couple runs without taking any skip tags and see how it goes

[balmy ridge]

you're struggling on ghost?!

thats mean

sorry

[coral summit]

And here we are acting like I’m an idiot again

God this server fucking reeks

[balmy ridge]

you aren't

just don't take skip tags

most of the time they aren't worth it

[signal frigate]

You need some anger management lmao

[languid pecan]

nobody said anything like that

[bleak seal]

Ima go play balatro

[atomic trout]

I wish more Tarot cards appeared though. Game's giving me Planets

[signal frigate]

Being told you suck in a game doesn't mean you can't improve

[atomic trout]

And Cards

[balmy ridge]

im curious

does blackboard work if you have no cards in your hand?

[languid pecan]

i think so

maybe im wrong

[balmy ridge]

shrimpteresting

[crystal field]

it doesnt work for stone cards tho,

maybe not?

[coral summit]

There is nothing else that could have been gathered from “you’re struggling on ghost?!” other than that conclusion

[balmy ridge]

i'm wondering if a blackboard naneinf is possible, that would be silly but fun

[crystal field]

oh wait

[balmy ridge]

similar to stencil naneinf method

[crystal field]

probably still works

[languid pecan]

how about the "thats mean sorry" directly after that

[balmy ridge]

i didn't interrobang

[coral summit]

Then it probably shouldn’t have been said

[balmy ridge]

question mark only

[coral summit]

Actual fucking moron yes you did

[balmy ridge]

oh lol

[nova junco]

Not feasibly lol

[balmy ridge]

mb

[balmy ridge]

pls stop being mean. i did apologize

[coral summit]

You cannot try to make me look stupid and then actively lie to my face about how stupid you made me look

[languid pecan]

cmon man calm down

[balmy ridge]

i speak before thinking sometimes and i'm trying to work on it

again, i apologize

[nova junco]

Nobody's trying to make you look stupid, did you take a look at the average conversation here

[crystal field]

my fault

[nova junco]

We got an acting stupid Olympics here

[coral summit]

Yes I did see the ragebaiter

Glad the blocked messages have since ceased

They were getting annoying

[languid pecan]

who are you talking about?

[coral summit]

Angrymonkey2489

[twin badge]

bruh

[atomic trout]

Alright alright, I will stop.

[twin badge]

gang this is game discussion

[nova junco]

Would you rather infinite games, but no game

[coral summit]

I’m just sick of trying to understand advice and then I get mocked for struggling with it

[balmy ridge]

or infinite cheesburger

[coral summit]

It happens all the time

[balmy ridge]

lol

[crystal field]

its alright to ask questions back to people who give advice ifu don’t understand smth

[nova junco]

Being fr people can sometimes be a little passive aggressive here but at the end of the day everyone does stupid shit here

[tacit stream]

evil and intimidating psychic

[unique glade]

does anyone have advice for beating black deck on the black stake? I've played a dozen runs with minimal success

[atomic trout]

We need to calm down, I really was learning about the game.

[languid pecan]

dont be afraid to take early eternals

[nova junco]

Funny thing is I've beaten it gold stake and white stake and none of the in between

[languid pecan]

unlock all button?

[nova junco]

Yeah

[crystal field]

black stake is fun and not too hard but on black deck yea

black deck

[coral summit]

I’d rather just not have people treat me like I’m an idiot first

[balmy ridge]

eternals don't hurt as bad with the extra joker slot, try to reach interest threshold as fast as possible since extra hand money is pretty ineffective, other than that its uhh black deck so it sucks :D

[hardy fable]

idk, how'd you beat the last stake eternal doesn't matter that much as you have an extra slot meaning picking up early bad eternal jokers is less punishing

[languid pecan]

the hardest part of c+ wasnt the gold stake it was the getting the damn stakes inbetween white and gold lol, c++ was so much more fun because i didnt have to keep switching decks and doing like 8 stakes on each one again

[nova junco]

One extra slot means extra temperance value trust me

[nova junco]

Which means the 6th slot should always be egg

[languid pecan]

its actually crazy how c++ was more fun than c+ imo

[tacit stream]

hey its "egg"

[languid pecan]

egg

[hardy fable]

most fun achievement for me was rule breaker ofc

[twilit jackal]

latest stream - Pair lvl 67. anyone leveled a 🖐️ to 100?

[nova junco]

I stopped getting steam achievements for some reason

[twin badge]

i jus started balatro, yall got any tips for ghost deck white stake if no good jokers show up early

[nova junco]

I did it a couple times in burnt joker runs I think

[languid pecan]

look for scaling jokers

dont be afraid to sell hex its not the end all be all

[twilit jackal]

nice

[nova junco]

Take any joker that can get you through the next antes even if they're "bad"

[twin badge]

aight

[twin badge]

aight

[atomic trout]

Chips work early, Wee Joker is your best bet

Hanging Chad and Wee Joker are your best friends

[languid pecan]

not using a billion hexes also helps your stats page spectral cards (EVEN IF YOU HAVENT PLAYED GHOST DECK IN A WHILE) not look like this

[twin badge]

bet

[balmy ridge]

yeah simply get one of the rarest jokers in the game early

because thats how it works

[nova junco]

But don't try to score like 10k within ante 2, you only need I think 800 so once you reach that focus on building value instead of score (value as in money, scaling etc)

[twin badge]

ye thats like the strategy for ghost deck i think

[atomic trout]

When you get the Seed. I heard it was Trillions of them.

This game is deep.

[balmy ridge]

that isn't a "strategy". that's delusion and false hope

[atomic trout]

Reminds me of Black Deck, Green Stakes.

[nova junco]

Nah man wee is the best and most consistent build to go for

[twin badge]

i can see why Goot crashed out

[balmy ridge]

im just gonna block you

[nova junco]

That's why I always kill face cards first

[balmy ridge]

are we fucking serious

nevermind im not entertaining this ragebait

[twin badge]

mb

[bleak blaze]

Well this is peculiar

[balmy ridge]

negative blueprint is extra blue

[twin badge]

insert monkey smiling and roaring lion image

[balmy ridge]

another one on the block list

[nova junco]

Me when I explain the most absurd and contorted reasoning to get to the conclusion that 8 ball is the best joker in the game and someone in #🕹・game-discussion unironically gets mad at me

[balmy ridge]

wdymm

8ball IS the best joker

[bleak blaze]

8 ball is great

[twin badge]

8 ball is a good joker

concept

[languid pecan]

but 8 ball is the best joker in the game

[balmy ridge]

ok everyone copied my joke i guess

tch...

[languid pecan]

its literally my name

[balmy ridge]

[twin badge]

not exactly played out well in gameplay

[twin badge]

hey you copied me

[languid pecan]

i am the 8 ball rat

[balmy ridge]

just imagine

he's shaking his head

if you're schizophrenic enough it might just work

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
We pillage, we plunder, we rifle and loot
Drink up me 'earties, yo ho

Drink up me 'earties, yo ho

[twin badge]

oik

ok

[balmy ridge]

swashbuckler ❤️

[nova junco]

8ball should be 1 in 2

[languid pecan]

everyone always wants swashbuckler egg but not enough people appreciate the swashbuckler with a gift card in hand

[languid pecan]

way too op.

[twin badge]

tbh 8-ball shouldnt give tarot cards but should give like 4x mult

[languid pecan]

8 ball is already amazing

[nova junco]

I had a crazy run that started with swash card and ended up scoring e12

[twin badge]

like 1 in 4 chance does nothing
1 in 4 chance 2x mult
1 in 4 chance 3x mult
1 in 4 chance 4x mult

[twin badge]

could be abit more balanced tho

[nova junco]

You'd have to be careful of the actual wording

Because of oops

[languid pecan]

a simple 1/4 chance to give 4x mult would probably be a good enough uncommon to add to the game

not the best not the worst

[twin badge]

yeah

[twin badge]

woody dapping buzz lightyear gif

[nova junco]

People already hate on bloodstone for being unreliable I couldn't imagine this not making people burn thunk into a fire

[languid pecan]

eh

atleast this would be useful in all builds technically

bloodstone you have to actually rely on the bloodstone

this could just be a nice treat every now and then

[nova junco]

And also not useful in any because either if you don't get it you lose or you win anyways

[languid pecan]

oops builds

[nova junco]

Bloodstone at least will trigger a few times if you have 10 total card triggers

[heady narwhal]

you either need to score points or you don't want to score points

[nova junco]

2 oops, 3 uncommons total for a X4 is crazy

[heady narwhal]

scoring points is pretty much never "a nice treat"

[languid pecan]

true

[heady narwhal]

lucky cards have an upside and a downside

[nova junco]

Yeah it's not like you get any bonus if you score 50k higher than the requirement

[languid pecan]

im more thinking pair builds if you win in one hand you get 3 dollars

more than having to play 4 hands

i admit its not a great joker idea though

[nova junco]

That's fair but still unreliable

[languid pecan]

im just thinking its probably better than loyalty card

[heady narwhal]

absolutely not

[languid pecan]

which is kinda the basis of this

[nova junco]

I don't think I've ever used loyalty card lol

[heady narwhal]

on pair builds if you win in one hand you lose +3 scaling mult and probably blue seal value and gold card value

[languid pecan]

true

[tranquil oyster]

people are missing that 8ball triggers when cards are played. it's not once per round.

[languid pecan]

my brains kinda slow rn

[languid pecan]

yup

[nova junco]

I've had hearts flushes not scoring a single time with bloodstone it's still not a very reliable choice

Most of the time the 1 tarot per round from cartomancer is better

[languid pecan]

the thing is you get permanent value from each tarot card

and you can almost guaruntee atleast 2-4 tarots cards each round later on

possibly more if you really minmax

[tacit stream]

I've had a funny Round 2 death on Golden Needle after a Heart Flush scored 0 Bloodstone procs in Ante 1 Big Blind.

[heady narwhal]

chat what are we thinking

[languid pecan]

8 ball feeds into itself extremely well

[heady narwhal]

i think it's definitely going to land on redcard trust

[nova junco]

Also you can't get a lot of tarots with retriggers which is the main strength of card based jokers

[heady narwhal]

i thought wrong

[languid pecan]

wdym?

[nova junco]

You can get 2 tarots max even if you have 15 triggers of 8s

[languid pecan]

3 if you have crystal ball

also thatd be super broken lol

[humble gulch]

Holy judgment

[nova junco]

DAMN

[tacit stream]

8 ball buff:
Tarot cards generated by it are negative

[nova junco]

Watch me get 15 tarots per round

[humble gulch]

No, please

[languid pecan]

oh its gonna be more than that.

[lavish gazelle]

Haha tarot printer go brr

[languid pecan]

if you min max you could get a lot more

a LOT more

[nova junco]

Oh wait you can blueprint 8ball right?

[languid pecan]

yes

[nova junco]

I forgot about that

[languid pecan]

oops blueprint retriggers

[nova junco]

Then yeah it's gonna be a lot more

[languid pecan]

youre about to go crazy with it

[tacit stream]

oops all strength

[lavish gazelle]

Yeah it would be better than vagabond

[nova junco]

Strength?

Is that the default one

[languid pecan]

8 ball at the high end is already better than vagabond but vagabond is absolutely better til you get to that point

[nova junco]

SHOWMAN

[languid pecan]

finally had my first vagabond run the other day

it was so good

so easy to set up 4oak

4oak is so fun on gold stake man

[balmy ridge]

diet cola is the best rental

i think

literally a free double tag

[languid pecan]

yeah its a good rental

theres a lot of really nice rental niches

[nova junco]

If i don't have all joker slots full cola is always an instant take for me

[languid pecan]

bean and juggler are some of my favorites

[eager lynx]

my cavendish broke lmao

[heady narwhal]

thoughts?

the hermit's looking real tempting right now

hologram is on 2x and i'm not entirely confident in my scoring

[humble gulch]

"Here, win"

[buoyant fog]

cool joker idea: monkey
destroys Cavendish, gain +1 hand size
+15 chips for every round you hold Gros Michel

[balmy ridge]

hermit

[languid pecan]

i want you 8 ball but i dont know

hmmm

ill do it

[balmy ridge]

ouija hits 8s trust

[languid pecan]

nvm thats just better for rn

:/

[buoyant fog]

Lol

theres better tarot jokers anyway

[languid pecan]

😠

[buoyant fog]

Oh.... just read the name

[humble gulch]

Fibonacci golden sticker

[crystal field]

[floral osprey]

working on Abandonded Deck on Black and i end up with like 4 seeds in a row with Eternal Ride the Bus

it wants me to beat it so badly but my terrible strategizing always kills the run at ante 6 or 7

[unique glade]

As soon as I asked for help I immediately won my next run. Hooray!

[languid pecan]

yeah dropping 8 ball for midas was worth :/

[heady narwhal]

shoot the moon is baron if it was usable

i mean maybe the 6 purple seals carried but like

[potent tree]

shoot the mime

[heady narwhal]

calculated

[sour quail]

welp

my best possible pair scored 235k

rip

[potent tree]

optimal rtb usage

[languid pecan]

finally drew my blue seal

took long enough\

[cursive lion]

And that’s the tale of the regina criten

[cosmic maple]

:/ do I take the dusk if so what do I drop?

[balmy ridge]

uhh

ok thats alot

why do you have dusk and baron

[cursive lion]

Maybe showman?

[balmy ridge]

baron wants to play high card

dusk only triggers a single card

so why would you have dusk at all, nevermind a second copy

[cosmic maple]

Idk if it works it works

[balmy ridge]

it doesn't work

that's the point i'm making

[cosmic maple]

K

[cursive lion]

Do you have some weird thing with your deck

[cosmic maple]

What?

[balmy ridge]

nevermind i guess

not willing to listen

[cursive lion]

Like maybe glass cards or something

[cosmic maple]

What?

[marsh dove]

📜 🔥 ✍️

[cosmic maple]

What about them?

[marsh dove]

What justifies the dusk

Why is it useful to you

[cosmic maple]

Idk, I know it's a good card but when I look back it doesn't fit the deck at all

[balmy ridge]

shocker

[cursive lion]

Sell dusk and find another joker

[balmy ridge]

if only someone told you dusk is useless

[cosmic maple]

I didn't think about it because I didn't usually get to one hand

[marsh dove]

All cards are situational. Dusk essentially useless on a baron build

Maybe for Econ with gold ticket but

[cosmic maple]

Why are you rude? You told me it was useless and I said ok as in I'll sell it

[balmy ridge]

"k"

[cosmic maple]

Yea k

[granite granite]

Hello guys, i will start to say that im sorry for my english, but i want amunderstans a thin. There are some jokers that say +4 multiplyer and other that say x3, so that means that if i have jokers that add 20 to the multiplyer and another joker say x3 that 20 became 60 ?

[balmy ridge]

doesn't translate to "okay, i understand, i'll sell it"

[marsh dove]

Bro took it personally lmao

[languid pecan]

ya love to see it

[marsh dove]

Chill

[balmy ridge]

not really

[marsh dove]

🔥

[balmy ridge]

its just annoying trying to help people for them to reply with "k" and ignore your advice

[cosmic maple]

Can you not infer? I did not think I would have to type out full sentences to get someone to understand what I am saying.

[balmy ridge]

how am i supposed to

nevermind

ragebait

i get it

[marsh dove]

Lmao

[crystal field]

chat has been contentious today

[balmy ridge]

im just

[marsh dove]

All day or

[crystal field]

naur

[balmy ridge]

how am i supposed to understand that this means you're going to sell it

i'm not a mind reader

[crystal field]

like past… hourr..?

[balmy ridge]

i'm not a fortune teller

heh

balatro reference

[languid pecan]

2 am chat kinda wild

[marsh dove]

People get weird yeah

[balmy ridge]

7am

[languid pecan]

green joker

[crystal field]

[mortal nimbus]

[crystal field]

aur yea?

oh its midnight here

[marsh dove]

What

[balmy ridge]

ggreen

like

green is stinky color

[crystal field]

negative chicot got stinky colors

[languid pecan]

finally a joker

[marsh dove]

Oh

I thought u meant bad joker I was like how 146 xd

[cosmic maple]

Even if it doesn't mean I'm going to sell it it definitely means I understand why does it matter to you after that??

[marsh dove]

W

[languid pecan]

pls no crimson

well..

[balmy ridge]

https://youtu.be/fJt_6mlCBHE
this is an interesting run

[crystal field]

OuCH

[balmy ridge]

doc is organizing his deck by

like

hearts have red seals, clubs have blue seals

[marsh dove]

Does that kill you guaranteed

Or just a chance

[balmy ridge]

corresponding colors, it's very satisfying

[crystal field]

thats the best part of balatro

tbh

making ur deck go crazy

[balmy ridge]

the only one that doesnt match is

[languid pecan]

idk

[balmy ridge]

spades are purple

but black eh

[languid pecan]

we'll see

[marsh dove]

Godspeed

[crystal field]

i mean the spade jerkers are purle tones

and same for the high contrast

[balmy ridge]

they're black

[languid pecan]

im gonna take chad to survive

[marsh dove]

I hope it blocks card sharp first hand then never again

[crystal field]

its about the energy

[marsh dove]

They do give purple vibes

[balmy ridge]

not that there's anything wrong with that!! ***

[marsh dove]

I understand

[crystal field]

ye

u get me

like

wrathful and arrwhead are ourple

[granite granite]

I wont be annoyng but i asked a questione 🙁

[balmy ridge]

sorry

where

[marsh dove]

What’s your questione

[wraith copper]

yes

[balmy ridge]

i can't read this

it makes no sense

[wraith copper]

what doesent make sense ab it

[heady narwhal]

people really underrate square joker i think

[languid pecan]

ok lets run this turtle

[wraith copper]

he asked if x3 multiplies the joker

which it does

[balmy ridge]

everything

[warm kindle]

it does make sense

[balmy ridge]

holy carry

[granite granite]

My english sucks

[warm kindle]

u just cant read

[languid pecan]

lets gaming

[marsh dove]

Skill issue

[balmy ridge]

yes i have ehh

[languid pecan]

chad for win

[granite granite]

Thank you cloud

[balmy ridge]

whats the word

letters jumbled

[warm kindle]

like they asked if 3x multiplies things by 3 which it does

[balmy ridge]

dyslexia

[crystal field]

always a good excuse

[balmy ridge]

and that doesnt

ok

yeah ok cool whatever yeah fuck you

[marsh dove]

Oh so literal skill issue

I see

/j

[balmy ridge]

die

[crystal field]

[balmy ridge]

/j

[languid pecan]

Yes. Put the +Mult joker left and the xMult joker right

[granite granite]

I asked if the 3x joker multiply the multiplier

[wraith copper]

i hate black deck

[marsh dove]

Me too man

[warm kindle]

if u put the 3x joker after the +mult jokers then yeah

[languid pecan]

Yes.

[wraith copper]

ive literally only beat white stake on it

[coral hill]

my hastily made tier list after getting c++

[crystal field]

+mult gets multiplied by xmult

[warm kindle]

because most okers activate in order of left to right

[heady narwhal]

it does. so if you play a level 1 high card (1 mult) with a +20 joker and a x3 joker, you end up with 63 mult ((1 + 20) * 3)

[crystal field]

canio in s+….

[wraith copper]

what deck is this for

[crystal field]

canio above rick

hmmm

[warm kindle]

trib in s 💀

[balmy ridge]

no

[languid pecan]

diet cola banner and an econ joker in f tier

[heady narwhal]

you're overrating invisible joker

[granite granite]

Exactly like i tought thank you everyone

[balmy ridge]

were you like playing with your eyes closed or something

[marsh dove]

I would personally put some of the scalers higher and a lot of stuff lower but I respect it

Why golden ticket down there out of curiosity?

[coral hill]

again this is made on a whim

[marsh dove]

Fair

[crystal field]

what if the jokers were in family guy and the joker was stewprint

[wraith copper]

ok but what deck is this for

[crystal field]

(think about it)

[marsh dove]

I just go by any Econ is fire so

[coral hill]

No?

[balmy ridge]

holy wow

[heady narwhal]

i think merry andy and acrobat deserve better

[coral hill]

I'll probably put it in like c

[crystal field]

merry andy is a freak but i love that guy

[warm kindle]

most of these make sense

[granite granite]

Ah ok, i have to put it at the and of the jokers that give +, i understand it well ?

[wraith copper]

buskin deserves higher than a b tier tbh

[warm kindle]

but just a few im confused

[heady narwhal]

buskin deserves d tier i think

[marsh dove]

Merry Andy has synergies with a bad deck with a couple good cards

Which is most of the time

[wraith copper]

gulp

[heady narwhal]

retriggers aren't that good and buskin is one of the worst ones

[warm kindle]

vampire is def a bit too high

id put it in a

[balmy ridge]

?

[marsh dove]

Early game

So I like merry Andy

[languid pecan]

• Mult <-- xMult -->

[coral hill]

I treated S like A+ tbh

[wraith copper]

this is funny to me

[balmy ridge]

"yes" would suffice

[coral hill]

Two S tiers is ridiculous

[marsh dove]

They are correct

[balmy ridge]

yeah no shit

[languid pecan]

they dont speak english very well arrows are universal

[balmy ridge]

but they represented it in a confusing way

[granite granite]

What happen if i do the opposite ? Xmult wont work ?

[coral hill]

i like how this could mean im overrating it or underrating it

[balmy ridge]

less score

[warm kindle]

definitely overrating

[marsh dove]

The mult will not be xmulted

[warm kindle]

b at best

[sick sable]

They gone put my boy superposition in the worst ones again😔

[languid pecan]

Correct, only your planet mult will multiply

[marsh dove]

Trib is generally pretty bad

Though what’s the context of this?

Overall or like gold stake

[crystal field]

stupidposition maybe… smh

[heady narwhal]

all of the good facecard synergies are held or discarded. then you've got

• business card (bad econ)
• scary and smiley face (you probably don't want to build into them)
• triboulet (not even worth considering because it's rare)

[marsh dove]

Gold stake it’s pretty bad

[languid pecan]

trib isnt that bad the problem is it dies to boss blinds pretty easily

[granite granite]

I see thank you, i didn't figured it out

[heady narwhal]

there are also more general jokers that you could run with facecards but why would you do that when the plant and the mark exist

[warm kindle]

b doesnt mean bad

[balmy ridge]

ykw you're right and im a stupid chud whatever. too tired to argue

[marsh dove]

I meant on the scale of legendaries

[granite granite]

In youtube videos they got really fast

[warm kindle]

like compared to the rest of the legendaries unless my deck is alr half kings/queens then I just roll my eyes

[marsh dove]

Every other legendary if you get it early enough its hard to lose

[languid pecan]

i assumed we were talking about jokers in general

not legendary to legendary

[marsh dove]

Yeah my bad for not clarifying

I just meant should be lower not should be F

[wraith copper]

honestly peak way to get chat going

[coral hill]

"yeah this steak is pretty bad compared to this lobster"

[wraith copper]

post a tier list and let people go ham

[marsh dove]
