honestly the tier list is better than a lot of peoples but econ should be higher
id even prefer canio over trib on gold stakes
true
no econ joker should ever be f tier
are there any mods in chat
Extra points if you put photograph and baron and trib in s tier and all scalers in F. Would be very good engagement bait
trib is also boring
chad in s+ and mime in b with all* the other retriggers is insane to me
oh my lag
Satellite in F I just clocked
held in hand effects are really really good especially because pairs are such a dominant strategy
exactly
You’re undervaluing that
satellite is like one of the worst econ jokers but yeah f is crazy
satellite isnt the best in the game but it is NOT f tier
money is still money
Ok update satellite is like C
what tier would yall rank glass joker
prob a
A
makes sense
i'd ssay it goes in the "pretty good " tier
That I can agree with
C
glass joker scales quickly but is a bit hard to scale
^
I think if I spent more time and energy this would be more refined
i can roll with c tier, to the moon should be same level as golden joker tho
I for sure undervalue glass joker
Like i did this in 5 or 10 minutes
5 dollars per round at max value
glass joker is S tier on fragile deck
glass joker + oops all 6s
literally all u need is 2 glass broken and its worth
even 1 and its 1.75x
not a huge thing but i'd probably put castle in the same tier as squimbo
any more than that its just amazing
whos to say I even have glass cards in the first place
and then I have to break them?
sounds more annoying that other uncommon xmult
just because you dont get to use a joker often doesnt mean its not good
also invisible in potential man tier is overkill
they're both +16ish chips per round if you don't build into them, and there are a lot more ways to get castle to scale faster
I just struggled with finding a good spot for it
invisible is either useless, or run breaking
u can reply to the claim cuz I didnt say this
it's underkill
i hate invisible joker
Why?/lh
id prefer it over vampire
why would you buy the joker if you dont have glass cards 💀
it's not like That bad but it's a very winmore thing
since I can at least use enhancements
great question
if your jokers are bad then invis isn't going to save you
i like how you guys didn't kill me over shoot the moon's ranking 
Save scumming doesn't even work, it always gives you the worst joker. For some reason
u quite literally cant
why would you buy it if you had 1 glass cards
that is complete and utter bias from me
if you have any bad eternals then invis is potentially lethal
i still probably wouldnt
blue joker, sly joker, mr bones mystic summit and luchador should be moved up imo
Winmore?
true i forgot about this
since it only appears if u have at least 1 glass card
essentially "this joker is only good if you'd already win"
and break them
good examples are baron and idol
unless its like ante 7 or 8
eh i feel like its a 2x if it hits base mult and more than that if it hits anything besides utility
better things to spend money on than hunting a justice or glass from standard packs
like what
if I have a few ill consider
literally a poor issue 😭
i don't particularly want it to hit my eternal foil credit card that i took early for survival
"just find constellation every run"
also note that jokers in tiers aren't ordered
Oh? I mean I guess but what if you get like a second Baron on your Baron run or another perkeo on a perkeo run?
well if I have something like constellation or hologram instead
it's good to buy pretty much every pack you see whenever you can afford it
i just randomly threw them there
those are consistently cheaper as they have a more generic condition
what if u dont get standard packs
standard packs are speculative but so are rerolls
wasnt thinking about garbage eternals, was more thinking about if you didnt have eternal jokers
(eternal non scalers)
"yeah if i saw the S tier joker obv id pick it over the A/B tier joker" ahh statement
multiple times I get like 2x holograms because I get no standard packs
what if you dont get justice? its not a good argument u see
2x is good
then something that isnt xmult
like red card
you don't need that much xmult to win
so why is 1.75x mult c tier then
i don't think that either
glass joker is fun
there are more than two sides to the argument
it is fun
poor man's canio
red card is the joker you take if you dont want to handscale
do yall think wild cards need adjustments
c tier is “average”
yes.
absolutely
id say thats accurate for glass joker
problem is constellation and hologram are too good so everything else is "bad"
wild cards are complete ass currently
especially with blue seals
only enhancement with a downside and no upside
what change would yall make to wild cards? i think they should be immune to debuffs
i think that's the best change
suit debuffs yea
it is one of the known things that will be getting changed in 1.1
too many words
it shouldnt like protect ur face cards from the plant
debuffs in general i meant, including verdant leaf/plant
that seems wrong flavor
i mean the thing about wild cards is literally every other suit has a better buff
why not?
that sounds fun
it's not like card trigger scoring is good
i mean maybe
why not? its not like they do anything else unless you have ancient joker
nobodys ever gonna reach a point where they are in ante 20 needing wild cards
its called WILD card for a reason it should be able to go WILD
hmmm
ok maybe ante 20 is a stretch
alright i like this
nobody's ever gonna reach a point where they are playing ante 8 gold stake and they need wild cards
I think this change is still pretty mediocre
like very mid asf
then what would you do
if its just strictly that
hopefully with the extra discard flushes ca be fun on high stakes more often
i think that mult and bonus and stone and maybe glass cards are mid asf
this is quite literally how you piss off 90% of people in r/balatro
make it enhance 2 cards at once + that but that might be too big a buff
what we need to do is nerf gold cards into the ground
$2
eeehhhh
50% less money is a big nerf
no clue but having cards that wont be debuffed is still very underwhelming
ouuuch
3->2 is a massive nerf
"lets make more of my deck get cooked by 4 bosses"
this is not an entirely serious sentiment
its still less than the proper suit changer tarot cards
and wild cards take up the card's enhancement for literally nothing else
.5$
so i dont think making hte lovers card be able to turn 2 cards into wilds + wilds being immune to all debuffs would be too strong
well we know the buff to wild cards will make it so that it DOESNT need to enhance 2 cards
otherwise it'd be too strong
immune to debuffs sounds good enough then imo
we dont need wild cards to be that crazy, mid is good sometimes
Immune to debuffs is pretty good
hoenstly though what i'd like to see is a joker that specifically scales with wild cards
i know ancient joker does but thats more an accidental byproduct
i mean something like steel joker, glass joker, golden ticket, but for wild cards
thing is literally every other suit is exponentially better
what is this good for other than ancient joker and the niche suit jokers
im gonna be honest mid is good for games
Thunk said it wouldn’t be the worst enhncment
"how am i going to typeset all of these mathematical expressions?"
the humble TeX:
maybe have a joker that is centered around wilds?
Flush builds!!!!!
putting it on seals
to prevent debuffs
Stone
if you want it to be really bad you can do a held in hand effect with the joker
true.\
this is obtainable already
i think it'd be good for fibonacci, stm, photograph, the works
wdym
i genuinely dislike ancient joker so much
like wild cards held in hand do yadda yadda
not so much fibonacci because it's only vulnerable to pillar
but like
you can make up the numbers
Even steven odd todd
With the update 5 card hands will be more viable though so
Imo it would be pretty powerful for early setup of big hand types which maybe could be good if the meta shifts away from pairs
Oof
idk I don't think the change for wild card will be strictly for jokers
i hope 1.1 makes 3oak meta
and will provide value by itself
it'd be fun
+2~11 chips on debuff bosses
having a non debuffed card isn't great value
My least favourite hand by a country mile
how come
i think 3oak is great
3oak is good enough
i should do a 3oak run
it only takes about a strength and a death to set up and it scales decently fast
I want full house buffed into oblivion and watch everyone go crazy here
it's also easy to pivot into 4oak if necessary
full house needs to be buffed in a way that wont buff 3oak
Like one run I lost due to not drawing a 3oak despite having pretty decent deck fixing just because I couldnt draw 1 more ace
somehow
graduated spare trouser builds
Remove 3oak
and you can still dig and use blue seals/gold cards since it's only 3 cards big
+20 +3 easy
the off chance i get spare trouser and scaleable flush house
otherwise i hate it
Maybe on white stake
maybe on gold stake as well
I feel like flush house is one of the best hands in the game design wise, hard to set up AND good scaling to boot
7 cards of a rank is a lot of cards of a rank
Strength and death makes it pretty common but not crazy consistent yeah
if you really want you can do 8
Idk theres never been a run where im like I should play 3oak over pairs
Unless I get specifically the trio
Early arrowhead
Even then I rarely do
nah I'd keep the mult the same but increase the chips to +30
do you think that if blueprint/brainstorm never existed and only existed as fan ideas, that people would call them broken?
i think of the runs where i'm not playing pairs, most of them i end up playing 3oak instead. personally
Copies of Sixth Sense don't stack, does Blueprint or Brainstorm copy Sixth Sense?
Probably
full houses are easier to build which is why I think straights have more scoring
I mean they are
No
sometimes 4oak as well but i think that takes a bit more luck to set up
aww
Two pair and pair are my most played hands by far
probably
3oak is prob bottom 3
they are fun broken
Even below 5oak
but those arent even top 3 jokers
yikes.
i've never really had a reason to play 2 pair other than trousers or flowerpot
5oak strush and like full house
Or like f5 and flush house
I play two pair on plasma
they're good but they're in the same niche as pairs
i don't play plasma
Ok nvm full house i forgot
Hmmmmm
Oh, it's because it's destructive and you can't copy Destructive abilities?
o7 40 mult fortune teller i guess lol
never try different decks on gold stake randomly?
Bottom 3 would be flush house, full house, and straight flush
it wouldnt really make sense
Then 3oak
youd essentially be destroying the card twice
i do, but not plasma
which is impossible
i don't like plasma
Plasma isnt fun so no
what do yall consider the worst/least viable hand type in general
2 pair is basically a harder pair that you use if you dont have as many hands as normal or are trying to save your hands and you need a bit more oomph
plasma is fun 🙂
I destroy it physically and then I destroy the memory of it
flush house
5oak is up there too
full house
Probably pairs
I find playing on black deck more fun
😭
ragebait?
i have a bias against straights so straight flush
Least obvious bait
😭
No way you caught me
It was sarcasm but those are the same here
flush house is significantly better than the other secret hand types, and it's better than full house. 5oak is just worse 4oak, flush5 is winmore, but flouse is a viable out in a few specific cases because of its fast scaling
does flush house have any cases where it shines like at all? triboulet maybe?
5oak and flush 5 are upgrades of a handtype that's already good enough, but flush house is an upgrade of two utterly garbage hands
yes
scaling
pure scaling
i agree in the sense that its generally a better hand type but if you can scale to the point of getting consistent flush houses why not just scale flush fives
because it has less scaling
probably because you don't have enough deckfixing for flush 5
lmao
also that
if you are able to consistently play and scale 5oak/flush house, you are probably winning the run
not necessarily
i dunno maybe i just havent played enough flush house runs yet
its also possible to get flouse with just 1 tarot card
you don’t need to
it's definitely pretty rare
you need like 3 tarots for flush five
I keep forgetting ppl don’t know who I am anymore so they don’t know I’m like a good player
this is what i thought going into erratic deck as my 5th gold stake climb
turns out it isnt quite as simple as i first thought (still pretty easy so far though)
you fell off
I LOVE BLOODSTONE GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
the bit will crumble eventually
and I will be there for it
i cant play erratic deck im too much of a restart scrub
Does Ouija only convert to random rank In Hand, or ANY rank?
i'd rather get an arrowhead on gold stake checkered deck
same issue with eden
any rank
Ty
i dont remember people so if i dont see a ++ in the name or i dont recognize you then i just assume youre one of the 10 million people ragebaiting 😮💨
i play checkered deck, its one of the best joker on it
theyre about the same
but bloodstone is more fun
I used to be pretty active that’s why
you fell off…
those cat cards are so cute
My activity took quite the dive
bloodstone is chance based so it can go die in a hole 
i just post every bloodstone win for the agenda
i should start playing on pc more
fell off hard…
cavendish is overrated. i have a ++ in my name so i'm not ragebaiting
if i took a speculative oa6 then sure
but usually id rather have the consistency of an arrowhead
Purple seals once they start snowballing feels so nice fr
cause i KNOW the bloodstone will fuck me over if I give it any chance to
FUCK BLOOFSTONE
🥲
Yeahhhh
i wouldve taken bloodstone prenerf
Doc named it The Betrayer for a reason
i'm going to take bloodstone post-buff
my uncle works for localthunk it's going to apply red seals to scored heart cards
I'm hardstuck on Purple Stake
I’m going to take arrowhead
i think this is the point where you quit playing the game for a while
its telling you to get lost
make it so it can add more than one red seal

you can just play heart flush every hand, on checkered its barely an inconsistency
infinite stacking red seals
purple stake is where it gets hard. dont worry
Purple Stake is just being mean, been stuck here for 2 days
You underestimate my power
on which deck
Red
oh
My highest
red deck isnt too bad
what sorts of builds are you doing
on red deck i mostly played around pairs and just used the extra discard for delayed gratification/dig for blue seals/steel cards/gold cards
Flushes for start capital and then whatever I can swing
yeahh i would start trying to diversify away from flushes
not for the start
theyre saying they do flushes to win in the first ante
to not die
oh
flushes are good in ante 1 and 2
a painful death
i also played 1500 runs of checkered deck at this point, and bloodstone fucking me over rarely happens when you always play hearts flush
theyre doing good
i like flushes a lot but outside of checkered deck they usually don't work long term because you have to invest too much into deck fixing
i think theyre doing good relative to playing hands not trapped into playing only flushes
and they also scale terribly per level for chips
I only started a week ago so I guess there is much to learn still
they might just not be good at scaling for purple stake
Photochad that requires 1 suite 5 card hand and 2 uncommons rather than 2 commons
🗣️ 🔥
like why do flushes gain the same amount of chips per level as pairs 
its because
hates flushes, and its confirmed
at purple stake sometimes you lose runs to bad rng so dw ab it too much
i mean i think flushes are way easier to fix for than 3oak
and definitely way easier to build for than straights
im fine with 25 chips but full house needs to be buffed first
straights need the high scaling to be relevant
imo they have a niche as "emergency handtype"
Yeah if I don't get anything decent before Ante 3 it tends to fall apart pretty quick, especially if I get The Wall boss
i build for them when i have no scaling and my run is being held together by duct tape and a banana
but then flushes are only relevant long term if you get like 5 of the same suit changing tarot cards and the uncommon joker for that suit
or youre playing checkered deck
i like straights but i always have -1 joker slot because i always priority a utility joker to either draw straights easier or to play straights easier
dont forget AJ
shoutout to shortcut
one of my favorite jokers
i mostly just use it to scale runner 4 times per round but like
i don't like straights, but i recognize shortcut's power
Trading card goes brrr
ancient joker requires keeping a rougly equal amount of all 4 suits so that you dont get screwed over by it picking a suit you have none of
if you do that then thats gonna be dangerous on blue stake+ unless you're on red deck or have some other forms of extra discards
Trading card is good but then I die trying to draw a straight with -1 discard lol
ghost deck was really funny to gold stake bc i just hex'ed stencil joker and got invis joker like 3 times
No one said its easy
best runs
Ghost deck my beloved
i'd deadass rather just use bloodstone than ancient joker because less thinking required
why would you deckfix by removing one suit if youre on AJ, thats just self sabotage
ghost deck best deck
fr
you can't do this type of stuff in other decks
random shop spectrals are so wacky and powerful
It is fun
thats why zodiac was also a fun gold stake imo
See but with bloodstone you have to think "how will I win after I inevitably die"
it hits the sweet spot between powerful and fun
I would love an early Eternal Egg + Ceremonial Dagger (is that a Risk of Rain reference?) combo
i love risk of rain
imagine if shop spectrals had a 1/300 chance to be a soul or black hole card
swashbuckler runs are always just potential ceremonial dagger pivots
Let's hope the new DLC is good
Original devs now work for Valve on Deadlock
ill never forgive them for adding 25 new achievements
whats wrong with more achievements
it will be, we've seen enough leaks and heard enough from people who got early testing access
This should be illegal, only add achievements if you own the DLC
who gaf
theyre mad annoying to get
not really with artifacts
its literally just rebeating the game on the dlc on every character
should every achievement be convenient and easy
even with command it still avgs like 30-40 mins per run
me when i have to play the game i paid money to play: 
I have plenty of Perfect Games on steam that've been ruined because they added new achievements long after I finished
i dont usually care to 100% games most of the time
i didnt buy the game to exclusively get achievements
most games aren't fun to 100%
its just the achievements were the key to get new abilities and stuff
so i got all of them
They should make a balatro tournament and if you win you get C+++
I think 100% Balatro is gonna take A LONG TIME though
so why care if theres more? just leave em
balatro however is
For me at least
then why do you care if they add more
Will wild cards in a run count towards 30 clubs and diamonds?
also achievements being tied to unlocks was a thing since ror1 no?
OH MY GOD THEY RUINED MY PERFECT ISAAC
Yayee
What did they add now
Oh yeah this will never be getting 100%’d by me
I also had perfect isack
i got 100% on crab champions about 5 times by now because each update adds like 4 achievements
just gotta win once, its item descriptions
story game final boss
my childhood fr
Which is better, steel queen or red seal 10? (round 2, I have no direction)
i genuinely was gonna put myself through gta V 100%
its beat moms foot on one rep+ run its super easy
i gave up
Neither
I like Red Seal but that's just me
too early to take one of those
Ok that's easy
Red seal 10 has more potential value but I wouldn't take either unless you're trying to go high score
early on yoy wanna take gold cards purple seals and blue seals with no direction
I wouldn't be opening standard packs after the first round tho...
I'm honestly just opening packs for 30 clubs and diamonds
other stuff is too reliant on your build
Y'alllll, I'm not doing anything actual run
it wont btw, idk why someone reacted ✅
I recommend just trying to win the run and getting 30 clubs or diamonds through tarot cards
While winning
only actual cards of the suit works
Ah, hell naw
mb
isnt the unlock for one suit? not both?
Andrw 😠
Andrw 😠
Yeah, I'm doing clubs now
go magic deck look for an early moon and you're basically there
Yeah you unlock that onyx agate!
Baseball Card doesnt work on Rare Jokers right
And rough gem I guess.....
Well, sometimes wording in games isn't clear
Guys I'm gonna be fr diamonds are my least favorite suit and I hate rough gem, it was my last c++ joker lol
what about this made you think that it worked with rare jokers
Wording in balatro is really good
well
There's a very small number of niche exceptions but you don't need to worry about those
except if its matador
Oh, that's what c++ means here 🤦♀️
I thought y'all really liked the programming language
✅ ✅ FACT CHECKED BY TRUE MATADOR HATERS ✅ ✅
i cant even read code
Matador glass joker shenanigans etc
i don't even have c++ in my name
its just text
Hush, kitten
i cant @ them tho
???
I guess not because then Baseball Card would probably proc itself
No that's what I said
well glass joker's case is a bug, but matador is just bad design
:<
Vag is broken
Just lost a perkeo run on ante 7 to an unfortunate Head boss blind
Pretty much my entire deck was hearts and
Not to mention most of my scoring was with bloodstone and photo
i blame bloodstone
Bloodstone contrary to how its betrayed me so so many times before
chudstone mudstone budstone
Was actually popping off
oa6s?
Nah
Bloodstone just decided to actually proc for the first time
NO I UNDERSTAND
I've lost so many runs to unfortunate bloodstone misses
the first time EVER in HISTORY i swear
yeah same i lost a run earlier where i could have had FOUR more gold stickers. was short by like 10k with bloodstone
not like
my last 4
at the time i was 135 or something
I was running bloodstone sock my buskin smiley face photo perkeo. The negative deaths made most my deck lucky Jack's and Kings pretty quick
The run was STRUGGLING SO BAD
But I knew I had to lock in once I saw the perkeo
Geniunely some of the best balatro I've played I made it out of a dreadful spot
But then
Head
😔
Yeah
rip in penises
I would do straight builds more if I had more than 2 discards
agree
Straights have been a good friend of mine
straights are fun but near impossible on high stakes
hopefully blue stake rework helps :DD
Looking forward to the Blue stake rework
But they are so annoying sometimes 😭😭
What boss blind kills you guys the most
not cool man... not cool...
probably an early needle or wall id guess?
Like I'll draw 4/5 of the straight and get NOTHING for the rest of my hands and discards
Definitely not plant
mmm needle mostly i think
pairs arent really a oneshot hand
I definitely die to the Mouth more than anything else
Why is blue stake even a thing 😭😭😭
I'm a digger I like to use a hand to get more "discards" and end up screwing myself forgetting the boss was the mouth
why do games even have difficulties
Planning for the future what do i sell id i get mime
baron
yeah
Lowkey boss blinds rarely kill me, it's usually just the scaling, but prob the play one hand type one? It's very annoying when I dont have a consistent hand, and even when I do have my hand, my ass misreads it as no repeat hand types and i throw the run
you got time though
Yes
Yeah that's the Mouth
Where you can only play one hand type
so when you get the mime, sell a baron then put both brainstorms on mime and the blueprint on a baron
Yeah
No this is wrong
what
As much as DNA is one of my favorite jokers, its gotten me killed by the mouth so many times because I forget it's the mouth
You dont want to equalize mimes and barons you want to equalize triggers and scoring
mime blueprint baron baron brainstorm brainstorm
No
yeah thats what
im saying
no?
DAMMIT I WANTEDTO PLAY MODDED BUT GOT THE BEST VANILLA SETUP IMAGINABLE (ante 1)
You have the trigger from the card, then the red seal trigger, then the mime trigger.
That's 3 triggers
You will now have 2 barons, that's 2 scoring, plus 1 from steel, so you have 3 scoring 3 triggers without the blueprint brainstorm
So put both brainstorms on baron, and blueprint on mime for 5 scoring 4 retriggers
Collect gold cards, roll for luchador
speculative baron
And just got 2 blueprints
I remember when I had to sell my 5th blueprint for luchador bcs I got to ante 18 without directors cut 😭😭😭
Dont tell him
i assume if you're going for naneinf you're supposed to not build into baron that early
I mean if you find 3 copy and 3 baron, then usually yes
Ante 12 is a good a time as any
Usually I try to pivot to baron around ante 8
Also looks like he has good deck fixing
No reason not to
If you make it past plant, sell another baron for DNA
I think the moral of that story is econ management is king, couldve had a shot for luchador with more mulah, more gold
Unless you just went into the Ox or smth
Then forget I said anything
holy double legendary
Sell bp for another soul
Hey chat hows my completion looking
hey. was just wondering if the steam version of the game is any different from the mobile one, and if they are both updated regularly. thanks
so far, some bugs aside, theyre the same
i didnt find another soul though
the game isn't updated regularly but there is a content update coming in 2026. don't know if every platform will be updated at the same time
alr thanks. does the “so far” suggest that that might change in the future
i see
well i guess i lied we get new face card skins sometimes
lul
😔
also, is there a difference between balatro and balatro+ in the app store?
which deck missing :o
Gold stake anaglyph deck
Orange and gold stake plasma deck
And golden needle challenge
ooo
yea golden needle is rough asf
anaglyph should be fine... plasma might be cooked 🙏 gl though. u already got thorugh black deck then 🙏 🔥
only cat and bean left
is that a xiao pfp
guys I just had such a cool mod idea
replace Gros Michel with Pontiac, and it turns into Cadillac?
Idk its kinda shaky but I just thought Pontiac having a 1 in 4 chance to go extinct would be so funny
Weakest riffraff
the certificate is tempting
It’s funny
balatro
i read the caption and thought jt was 79x directly on the obelisk and got floored for a second
balatrodle in 2 ez mode although it took me a good 4 minutes to think of this joker
spoilers
bro is a balatro player
bro is
like
the
opposite of a balatro player?
horshoe theoey?
where you read so much it's like you didn't read it at all
i love this game sometimes, and also hate it sometimes
not a single strength or anything 😭
and my dumbass had destroyed all the glass
advanced contrareading
i made a nod emoji for jimbo

for early spectrals do we prefer immolate or seals?
NOOO I HAD OBELISK CAMPFIREEE
i somehow made it through and found a sixth sense
wrung sixth sense until a cryptid dripped out
un mein gott
man fuck you
i did nothing wrong
Okay
Wily + summit stickers
This beats vessel if I don’t sell chad and just play flush 5 glass 3s
Ice cream finished at +5 🐐
Bye bye Perkeo
Black deck is sucking the life out of me all the usual pair builds seem to fail any tips ? For gold stake
run revolved around instant wee but couldn't get anything up in the end
you can use two pair for it's faster chip scaling
Ramen, burglar, and baseball card in the next shop trust, Ramen will be nat negative trust
Wait nvm white staker
Which challenge is that?
Oof
What would you drop for x mult tho
cruelty is fun
Wait faceless
wish it could be gold stake
Bye
So fast
hi
no you don't trust
I'm one deck away from completionist+ and it's erratic deck
Modded cause you can't be eternal and perishable lol
grab double tag? already got retcon and antimatter
how is my progress with joker stickers going btw
(orange sticker on jimbo for your knowledge)
looks about a quarter done
i'd only grab double tags from colas
a banana joker
i only dont have stickers in like 3 jokers and today u completely demolished smeared joker and diamond joker lol
on my run to gold stake plasma deck
Plasma deck makes it very easy for chip builds to get to ante 8
ill do plasma deck for the jokers like stone joker
this is my son, he has every disease. i love him
Abstract value ✊
Do I do Cartomancer here?
what's tdl on
i would hex then pick up cartomancer
Mr. bones value hell yea
are the balatro gods feeling benevolent today
YO ok those cards are gas
is that a compliment
yea
I have NO clue what gas even means i just started using it as a complement and people accept it
lmfao
is it worth it to take a spectral pack over buffoon on ante 1
What deck
death
in general
rip
I think so yea, assuming you didn't skip round 1 an aren't running black deck
the first time i try play baron mime and the plant has decided to ruin it
the chance to get literally nothing is also pretty bad
Gotta have a back up plan
the backup plan is never Baron and mime
ECTO/AURA
WOE BE UPON YE
getting eternal showman was probably the worst part
i didn't realise it was eternal till i picked it up
given how much baron mime already scores in an optimal scenario it's better to get a sefondary source of scoring to not get fucked by it's bad consistency
um i just got completionist and steam isnt giving me the achievement
so it only checks for the achievement when you win a run?
well yeah you need to win again for the achievement to actually register
ok then
i wouldn't use it
absolute cinema
also I had to give up a mega spectral pack for campfire, definitely the right decision
groker run that ended up being really good
Ew.
campfire is peak what
this could be you btw
what did we say about being experimental
takes rare skip
gets a random rare joker that isn't even bad
"wtf this game sucks"
it should have been a dna i can't even get any use out of
This needs to get fixed
ironically campfire is also really good with vagabond so this makes even less sense
That happens in every profile
Hit the quan
id kill to get another run like that
yeah gimme the 8 letter code
His greed sickens me
I’m leveling flush here, which of these is best?
Oh, free planet pack
Didn’t even notice there was a planet pack
i'd take blackboard and ditch flushes
actually you can probably make it work with flushes with vagabond's tarot generation
Think I should still take blackboard?
Would've taken the campfire too
You had a combo offered in that shop
The campfire was the last game where I died
I just noticed the missing eternal sticker
looks inside
photophotophotochad
Fuck the cerulean bell 😭
That's 5 triggers, right?
No
9 triggers
Unless I'm mistaken
I’m just gonna take everything
yes
Yayee
swap photo with supernova? straight flushes are at 21
do you really need 4 fingers?
straight flushes??
yep kind of
haven't done enough deck fixing to dish out straight flushes on their own
which if you havent idk what youre doing
leveled up what? the hand level?
its lvl 7
This IS Sad
good
340 x 32
ante 3 round 4 
gimme the seed after you die
Ante 6 round 7 🗿
yeah won that
What should I remove, I never got a legendary joker and this is right before the verdant leaf boss blind
take bb, if your doing flushes just deckfix to one suit so bb procs and flushes be more consistent
hi
what lvl is you straight
I LOVE BLOODSTONE GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
flushes and bb in the same sentence 
whats the bb?
What does mime do again?
theres like, only 1 good legendary you can get rn
Boss blind verdant leaf, the one where you have to sell a joker to be able to play your cards
So it’s not worth it? It’s mostly just for the discovery I want to do it
with hierophant and Chad you prob have enough chips so I would sell the straight joker
it retriggers held in hand effects steel, gold cards, and blue seals (also jokers like raised fist, shoot the moon, and Baron)
Retrigger all hands ability I believe
Ah
i mean if you wanna discover it its fine, just letting you know that its most likely wont be good for ante 8
I won another run and it still hasnt given me the achievement
The one that make gaps of one suit?
weird
Ye
its gonna be chicot anyways mark my words
for normal completionist you also dont need to win a run to get the achievement, its only for C+ and C++
the other one but shortcut you can sell to if you have deckfix
The +100 chips?
ye
Alr
anyways off to play peglin
youre on steamodded
thats why you didnt get the achievement
Yes
its a modded profile, try running it vanilla
This suck I’m playing abandoned deck 😭
Ive turned off my mods though
I have a question. I started the challenge mode just to test it out but I haven't unlocked all of the jokers. I'm getting the impression that I won't be able to unlock the last legendary I need to complete the set. Can I still unlock all of the jokers?
you can sell it
if it still says steamodded on top right its not vanilla
Can’t buy anything for now
both for the achievement lock and for the gameplay
for the boss blind
How do i turn it off? It says ive turned off cryptid and talisman in the mods section
remove steamodded from your mods folder, if youre not using balatro mod client
I seriously have to remove it from my mods folder if i want to run vanilla. Why are balatro mods this convluted god
Blue deck > yellow deck
what do you mean? Challenge mode (decks) are just unique decks with restrictions
theres a client that helps you organize modded content called balatro mod manager, basically like modded minecraft
Ive somehow not heard of it
Cant find my mods folder
You can get any legendary jokers in the Challenge Deck, they just won't be unlocked
That’s what I did, i won 
I know. What I'm saying is I think I saw someone imply that, if you go into a standard game AFTER starting a challenge run, then, there's no chance of you unlocking all of the legendary cards, as if they'd be locked out or something. Either that or the person I was watching did not articulate their thought completely.
No that's not the case
Challenge Deck doesn't lock you out of unlocking jokers
That would be stupid
what, you can still find legendary jokers after doing challenge runs
Legendary jokers just doesn't have a set requirement to find and unlock
why would someone lie on the internet
So you can still find them in challenge Deck even if you haven't unlocked that specific joker
That's what I was thinking. 😅 I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't crazy.
@manic talon what do i remove
What’s the joker you polychrome with hex
ideally everything in the modded folder, just move it somewhere else temporarily
Golden
Didn't really have any good picks
Okay. Cool. I just gotta be lucky enough to get that last one. That's what I thought but I just had to be sure.
You could’ve waited
I cant find a mods folder i think i just put a load of stuff in the baltro folder idk
Ill send a screenshot
But golden joker is literally free econ 😭
True
Either that or more likely im not finding the mods folder
just go Windows + R and Type %appdata%/balatro
yeah i was in the wrong place
mannnn come the fuck on
actually almost half of the legendaries are terrible on this deck
Common abandoned deck L
Abandoned Deck doesn't say you are not allowed to HAVE face cards
red stake, working my way up them on mobile
Actually pretty easy to dupe them
Should be easy enough then
i’m up to green stake on every deck on pc i think
youre welcome
*had plenty of tens i’ve hit immolate twice lol
just realised my name on steam has my real surname in it
lmao
That's fuckin funny
Mine is just a phone number
I hate canio
I die before I ever get it online
Because for some FUCKING reason whenever I get canio hanged mans just DISAPPEAR
He loves Trading Card
balatro
Level 32 pair plus i'd rather get levels from the blue seals i got
still better than gift card at this point imo
Gg i won
Synergy
I think ive gotten canio twice ever and one of those times was abandoned deck
So i havent really ever used them
Top it off with a wof hit on yorick for the gay discarder
Actually I think I might have only gotten them that one time on abandoned deck
Banana outlived perishable. Does that mean I can sticker it for free now?
Sweet
My stupid ass wasted my hands looking for eights to discard for rebate then realised I actually needed those hands to win 😭
my cat's eating well
BOYS.. WHAT HAVE I DONE…
this has got to be one of the funniest builds i’ve ever made
imagine the mime potential..
This has to be one of the worst jokers in the game, right?
o7
Rick at 13, Nio at 14
Showed up way too late 😭
nah
it's great with a lot of them
True but i was doing a good job of killing off the face cards
it's more for the enhancements than other jokers ie there is no equivalent of photo for 2through 5
Double soul ante 8 shop ❤️
no
any rettrigger joker is somewhat viable
there are no bad jokers there's just joker that more niche than other
Pareidolia moment
I don't get why pareidolia and oops have to help bosses be a pain in the ass
This is why I hate face card builds
Lowkey thinking about selling chaos and michel for that rocket
Really risky
But really good econ
Esp with the vaginator
But banana
