[wintry ice]

what's the new brainrot

[lost vault]

purr

[last falcon]

you don't wanna know

trust me

[marsh dove]

It’s just a few memes that I’ve seen recently along the lines of someone speaking foreign language then saying smth in coherent English then going back to foreign language and leaving them with the 0 context

Not a brainrot

[last falcon]

insta reels and tiktok are so genuinely brainrotting

[marsh dove]

Just someone made a meme and some people probably made some stuff up and and made a couple more

[last falcon]

oh no this meme is just a meme

not brainrot

[marsh dove]

Not really prevalent

[marsh dove]

Yeah

Just had to clarify

To them

[wintry ice]

ic

[marsh dove]

67 still going strong

[last falcon]

hai

[lost vault]

brainrot is just a subcategory of memes

[lost vault]

haii

[lost vault]

61 is betyer frr

[wintry ice]

portuguese speaking bose einstein condensate more portuguese speaking

[restive plover]

vagabond can't stop giving me hermits and fools, i can't stop winning! it's too much!

[marsh dove]

Brain rot is what old people call new memes when they don’t want to admit they laughed to similarly stupid shit before they became unc

[last falcon]

bro i fucking hate working at a summer camp because all these kids would say is 6-7

[marsh dove]

Lmao

[lost vault]

brainrot is worse specifically because of italian brainrot which is literally just ai generated images

[wintry ice]

mlg is just as stupid

[marsh dove]

Good example yeah

[wintry ice]

it has the same formula of overstimulation

[manic talon]

of course, why wouldnt it pick clubs

[lost vault]

mlg was so dumb broh

[last falcon]

yes but it's nostalgic to me and therefore it's not as bad trust you wouldn't understand

[lost vault]

mom get the camera

[buoyant fog]

Amerkäners ven zey call Dersprïtzenstrudzelmanganhousen "rainbow sprinkles" 🤣

[marsh dove]

Worth it for the 3 chips bro trust

Who needs planets anyway

[last falcon]

i dont speak german but yes

[marsh dove]

Germans really just be removing spaces and calling that shit new words

I respect it

Do you guys say the whole thing in one breath if it’s a giant compound word or do you take a break somewhere in the middle

[glass creek]

Balatro

[lost vault]

balatrob

!

[marsh dove]

Balatro

[last falcon]

bla

[manic talon]

who needs photograph when you have glass, chad is so insane lmao

[last falcon]

dear lord

[icy hollow]

its ok. i understand your peak

🤝

[marsh dove]

Chad gotta get nerfed at some point lmao

It’s so busted

[last falcon]

thank you king

[last falcon]

lowk they should just do the multiplayer rework

[buoyant fog]

none of those were actually German, but my favorite real German megaword is Vergängenheitzbewaltigung

[last falcon]

like 1 retrigger for first 2 played cards

[wintry ice]

that's the safest route

[buoyant fog]

its spelled something like that

[marsh dove]

Yeah

[restive plover]

does anyone else play with the play card button on the right

[sour quail]

anything but crimson heart bro 😭 ive seen all other finishers

1/5 bad luck

[marsh dove]

Only issue is then it’s objectively worse than your always retrigger jokers like dusk

[wintry ice]

2 retriggers on 1 means you can just get a single gold seal and farm a ton of money for example

[marsh dove]

But they didn’t seem to mind making an objective upgrade joker with agate so

[last falcon]

yes however comma its a common retrigger joker

therefore still works

[wintry ice]

chad has the advantage of applying to all hands

[lost vault]

dusk requires you to sacrifice econ (hands) to get value

[devout wasp]

honestly i think chad at uncommon would fix like 90% of balance problems with it

[marsh dove]

Yes comma however comma I still think it’d be weird

But better than it is now comma for sure

[wintry ice]

just changing the rarity of something is a bandaid fix at best

[lost vault]

bad grammer

:3

[wintry ice]

it's still really good if you get it

[last falcon]

thumbs down emoji

[marsh dove]

In what way

[devout wasp]

it is, but it becomes a lot less warping when you don't have such a high chance of seeing it, when riff-raff can't generate it, etc

[marsh dove]

Interrobang

[devout wasp]

it's still prob too strong even then

[lost vault]

well at first i thought the comma was in the wrong place but then i realized the word comma makes no sense in that sentence at all

[last falcon]

but then i think that nerfs it due to sock, hack, and dusk existing

[lost vault]

also i spelled grammar wrong wahahaha

[potent tree]

bad spelling

:3

[lost vault]

kills you

[potent tree]

oof too slow

[marsh dove]

Yes comma however comma I’m not bothered to switch to the keyboard that has the comma.

So I’ll just say comma

[lost vault]

one button vro

,,,,,,,,

[devout wasp]

those do exist, but none of them are unconditional like chad is. chad only hits the first card but it always hits the first card, the others have econ disadvantages

[last falcon]

i think its funnier to say commas aloud

[potent tree]

we need comma joker. ends your game if you fail a captcha when playing a hand

[lost vault]

it gets old real quickly

[marsh dove]

3 button when I’m swiping around vro

[last falcon]

true but i still think multiplayer rework is better

[lost vault]

it should be its own rarity. comman.

[devout wasp]

what is the mp rework, i've only played vanilla

[lost vault]

or alternatively

,n

[potent tree]

true true

[last falcon]

retriggers first two cards only 1 time

nerfs photo chad but also still leaves option for common retrigger joker

[last falcon]

yes but it can be funny sometimes

ok i go to bed now

its fucking 1:40 am and i've been sick for 3 weeks

LMAO

[lost vault]

just get well bruh

[neat ore]

I have enough of the chicot hate it's way too over hated it's really good

[minor portal]

nifty.

oh is that gold stake

damn... I may be stupid

[blissful fog]

Chat, what should I replace?

[limpid sedge]

I shoulda expected it. Dread it, run from it, the arrives all the same.

[potent tree]

yeah that looks pretty red to me.

[potent tree]

the animal

if we could still post gifs here i would

[minor portal]

evil red tinted screen

I will say, there was a rebate in the first shop of second ante iirc

[potent tree]

honestly rebate is far and away best econ

early ouija with painted deck is godly

[unique glade]

anyone got advice for approximating score on the plasma deck?

[desert loom]

https://efhiii.github.io/balatro-calculator/

if you have a much larger chips or mult just divide it by 2 and then square that number

[vale shale]

Wdym by approximating the scor

We are Balatrino.

Crushed by an obelisk

[vale wharf]

I love skipping every blind 👻

Duh

Wait

Why the heck is it $27?

Ohhh

Can you sell jokers for more too?

Ooooh

How good is green joker? I never understood the value

Holy

[desert loom]

half joker easily

[errant brook]

3F6FEE7S

Saving another naneinf seed for later

[desert loom]

tragic

[errant brook]

Should I go back to trying to grind for naneinf on gold stake?

[coral hill]

I legit can’t play balatro on my pc

I’m too mobile brained

[plucky dagger]

Don't mean to jinx it, but

[lunar zealot]

Get to duping

[plain mirage]

😋

[marsh dove]

This makes jokers like riff raff pretty ridiculous as well

Infinite rerolls

With that cash

[vale wharf]

How rare is soul in arcana and spectral packs?

[marsh dove]

What’s there to jinx

That setup is perfect

Assuming you don’t just roll all that money and no burglar when you need it

Like just happened to me an hour ago xd

[plucky dagger]

So what am I looking for exactly?

[marsh dove]

Nothing right now

You just want a deck of steel

[plucky dagger]

So I should just be duping red steel kings right now? How many of them do I need?

[marsh dove]

I believe 63

Maybe do a few more just in case

[plucky dagger]

I should probably destroy my non red seal king

[marsh dove]

Yes

All you need now is just coast off your build and dupe til you have enough then start rolling for burglar slowly

Slowly bc u got time

Actually wait by the time u dupe it all u will not in fact have an incredible amount of time I think

You may have to roll pretty hard for burglar

For now just dupe

[sage blade]

ravi ivm prices from the future

[marsh dove]

Until like 70 cards

Then roll burglar

[plucky dagger]

I got red seal gold and red seal stee. Should I start duping steel or could I stick with gold for econ

[marsh dove]

May as well keep duping during

[marsh dove]

Steel

Do not fill your deck with a bunch of gold you’ll have a hard time getting rid of later

Would be a problem

[sage blade]

C+ Review ( 0000 0000 )

[plucky dagger]

I still need the hand size vouchers

[sage blade]

miss server

[idle haven]

I love winning ante 4

[marsh dove]

Oh

Yeah could be an issue

Godspeed

You’ll need them for A24

I believe

Or death

[heady narwhal]

game please i need +mult

do i sell chicot?i think i'll genuinely die otherwise

[hardy fable]

gets chicot again

[heady narwhal]

yorick

[hardy fable]

Rick:sup

[trail forge]

Negative egg would be perfection

[plucky dagger]

It's over.

[heady narwhal]

chat is it unironic baron on gold stake?

i have 7 queens 6 kings

i think it's my best option i'm kind of falling behind

[lunar zealot]

you lost your bbc run?

[heady narwhal]

shoutout to mr bones

[heady narwhal]

yes i did lose my baseball card + polychrome rocket + two souls run

somehow

[lunar zealot]

I thought we were friends...

[heady narwhal]

i'm not very good at balatro

[lunar zealot]

how could you betray my goat like this jimothy I. Bo

[heady narwhal]

there were like no mult options

[lunar zealot]

not even esoteric shit?

like stm or droll

[heady narwhal]

i ended up selling baseball for a mult joker, then buying a foil baseball instead, then trying to kill it with dagger

and then i died because i needed the foil and the x1.5

i had an eternal foil egg that i needed for survival and it really jammed up my joker slots i think

there was probably a way through but idk

[manic talon]

fucked up youre giving me this in front of the wall

[heady narwhal]

i wonder if i missed any xmult on this run

there was observatory and there was baron

and i forgot about the observatory pretty quickly

i think there was an early rental constellation that i didn't really want because i didn't believe enough in the parking

[queen reef]

Nat neg parking and burg lol

[heady narwhal]

high quality

parking is one of my favorite econ jokers it's really fun to use

[queen reef]

Nat neg mime next

[quartz ember]

thats a winning setup, what did you do?

[plucky dagger]

I dunno

I didn't have any hand size upgrades, so that may have costed me the run

[boreal hamlet]

Hey guys idk if this is the best place for new comers to ask for advice, but does anyone have any strats for nebula deck ? I finally beat my first couple decks a few days ago but I’m struggling . I play PS5. I’ve always been great at poker but joker arrangement and what to focus on has been a struggle. I’ve looked on Reddit and I’ve gotten close but idk if yall have tips

[plucky dagger]

Oh well.

[manic talon]

try to get pairs as your most played hand

[boreal hamlet]

Okay thank you I’ll keep u updated on this run

[vale wharf]

I just realised that skipping blinds isn't a good idea, because you could actually gain money and shop opportunities

I should stop skipping every blind

That being said...

[buoyant fog]

me cross posting my jokes between discord servers to maximize my audience just like a streamer 😤

[lunar zealot]

What the fuck is this

well at least you know it's bad unlike #those people

[vale wharf]

It is bad

But very

VERY

FUN!!!

I get a 20% win rate with these

I'm just trying to finish the lower stakes quickly

I did that whole run while waiting for my food at burger king

[buoyant fog]

Burger King should make a balala burger

[boreal hamlet]

Should I get celestial packs early instead of jokers cuz it’s hard to get pairs as dominant hand and hit score

[manic talon]

jokers first, stuff like Green joker, bus, or supernova and other jokers that helps you spam pairs

[vale wharf]

+50 chips if you buy 2 of the same burger

[buoyant fog]

Yummy chips

turns all your poker chips into Ruffles

[nova junco]

Chigoat saving the run again

(i got it literally last shop)

[errant brook]

Chicot was my last joke for Completionist++ and ironically made the run I was on basically un-loseable

[latent egret]

you gotta sell him to score more

unless you had no planet levels this might have been winnnable without him too

[tall sky]

shop 1 credit card + holographic hologram my beloved

[idle haven]

Do i do it

I did it

[undone laurel]

Square Joker's not doing much, I should replace it with something that actually needs a sticker

[nova junco]

I scored like 4m lol

[onyx cipher]

I wonder why carts are so jiggly on low tier devices

[manic talon]

I dont think you need chicot to sell one random joker

[vale wharf]

How did you win, though? x36 still means you need to score ~2,700

[nova junco]

the glass red seal and level 17 flush

And 2 steel

[latent egret]

low gamespeed

[vale wharf]

Level 17 💀

[nova junco]

What lol

It got me the win

[latent egret]

you gotta play pairs

[onyx cipher]

It don't fix it

[nova junco]

There's some deltaTime magic if I had to guess

[vale wharf]

I mean, that's really high haha

[nova junco]

I've done better but this was a run I did while bored in class so

[undone laurel]

And just like that, 70/150!

[nova junco]

I've gotten pair to level 100 a couple times

[undone laurel]

Thanks, Yorick!

[vale wharf]

Those who know 😏

[nova junco]

Get 2 more levels

[vale wharf]

No, it won't be as funny anymore

/s

[onyx cipher]

Anata wa yowai desu

[vale wharf]

What's that mean?

Oh, I see ☹️

[onyx cipher]

You are

[steel prairie]

hey guys could you help me out with maths on this?

lucky cat is x69.75

[vale wharf]

Well, it's not inaccurate 😔

[restive plover]

you can use this https://efhiii.github.io/balatro-calculator/

[heady narwhal]

this looks right if everything is the same card

[restive plover]

yayyyyy beat purple stake on green deck Finally

[heady narwhal]

but it should be the same scoring with one on dusk and one on idol + that gives more lucky hits

[twin badge]

noice

[heady narwhal]

my favorite joker synergy

walkie talkie + fibonacci

[undone laurel]

Y'all lowkey sleeping on castle

[lunar zealot]

IM SO STUPIDDDDDD

WHY DID I SELL MY ONLY +CHIPS

I HAD A GOOD THING GOING WITH GRIMBO MIDAS AND MY STUPID ASS DIES TO ANTE 2 WALL

[undone laurel]

That was fun

Castle was at about 300

Don't listen to roffle, it's a good chips joker

[tall sky]

another great run with two skill checks

[restive plover]

playing endless now for sillies and got needle ante 9 but i rolled a blueprint 😭🙏

[tall sky]

early campfire was a gamble but midas mask gave me lots of money

then obelisk + hanging chad 3oak carried me

[inland temple]

what's the use for aces

[undone laurel]

If you play 1000 of them, you get a scholarship in balatro university

[inland temple]

in game

do aces just suck

[latent egret]

they're not bad

good for ride the bus

don't get debuffed as ofter as face cards

lots of chips for early game

[inland temple]

would u ever take grim

[latent egret]

sometimes

more often then incantation tbh

[naive jolt]

OK i need to not fumble it
Please perkeo

[latent egret]

cause at least it's one rank except of 3 or 9

[naive jolt]

Oh my god it's a golden seed

[latent egret]

for the other spawner spectrals

[restive plover]

i like scholar sometimes

or fib

and/or strengthening them into 2s for wee

[naive jolt]

Omg

[twin badge]

eh

[twin badge]

damn

[restive plover]

REBATE 🗣️

[naive jolt]

This is not gonna be a run
This is gonna be THE run

[inland temple]

look i am a modder i want to make sure that aces are at least ok

[undone laurel]

Dead ante 4

Maybe

[naive jolt]

We'll see if i'll get too greedy

[undone laurel]

Oh wait, it's black stake

You got this

👍

[naive jolt]

Photo is there

Now i need chad

[inland temple]

oops

all sixes

[naive jolt]

Ooooh that's a hard choice
I can take reroll or bloodstone
Scoring gamble or greedy

For the love of god

The problem is photochad doesn't naneinf

[restive plover]

rerolled a perishable supernova into a regular supernova 🙏

[naive jolt]

My deck fixing by ante 4

[foggy dome]

I probably played so ass but this seed had me fighting for my life on white stake

There is NO xmult in this thing. Steel card only. My only muly addition was a gluttonous joker that i triggeted with wild cards

Fearing for my life the whole way through. I'm fairly certain a few blinds came down to lucky cards hitting

[inland temple]

i suppose

[lunar zealot]

Very very esoteric

I can't think of something that does other than be a pseudo 4 fingers

does this ace always score?

Could be good for fpot or see2 i guess but

[inland temple]

no it just adds it to the hand to be the first card

[lunar zealot]

the first card?

[inland temple]

lemme see if i can make it go to the end

[lunar zealot]

so it's not like it always scores either

[timber radish]

but it doesnt add that card to the deck later, does it?

[lunar zealot]

yeah this is really really esoteric

[lunar zealot]

It doesn't say so

[sweet bramble]

whats yalls opinion on merry andy?

[lunar zealot]

It's surprisingly better than people give it credit for

good for purple seals and rebate faceless value

and to a much lesser extent delgrat

-1 hand size matters less with pairs

but obviously situational bc you might have more golds and blue seals over purples

[inland temple]

it says permanently

[restive plover]

i think merry andy is the One joker i haven't bothered to unlock yet

[sweet bramble]

-this is probably a hot take but i think its good with flushesbecause you end up seeing way more cards with 3 discards

[inland temple]

is this clearer

[sweet bramble]

are you writing a description?

[inland temple]

i am

[sweet bramble]

ohh

just copy marble jokers decription

[pale wolf]

is it a six card hand or a five card hand

or are you only allowed to select four cards when you're holding this

[restive plover]

yeah that was gonna be my question

[inland temple]

with 5 copies of that card

[pale wolf]

and you could have played 10 cards?

[inland temple]

you can play any amount of cards and it will add an ace to it

[pale wolf]

uuuh

[sweet bramble]

OHH to played hand

🏅 misunderstood it again award

[pale wolf]

make it 7 and its a deal

[inland temple]

my mod has a thing that retriggers 7

[tired kestrel]

They're slightly better than 9's, they've scholar, fib and odd todd and don't die to plant

[restive plover]

i can remember the one time an 8 ball from riff raff hit for me like it was yesterday
it was yesterday

[inland temple]

i love 7 i gave it some love already

[brazen pecan]

Not areally important quedtio8, but should I take anything here? (None of my cards are enhanced so seater is not that big of a benefit atm)

[pale wolf]

if anything I think it would be a temporary copy, no?

A permanent Copy would stay in your deck

[inland temple]

it would stay in deck

[sweet bramble]

red card is nice over seance unless youre going for straight flush

[pale wolf]

what

[inland temple]

but it is a plain copy of ace

[pale wolf]

thats... silly

[queen kindle]

cmon baby lets hit a bullseye here

[inland temple]

a temporary copy is kinda wack so

[queen kindle]

IT HIT THE ACE FUCK

[tired kestrel]

Dna may be hard to find later, and photo might help with early rounds, other than that idk

[pale wolf]

thats good

[inland temple]

😭

[sweet bramble]

I think red card is best

scaling my love

[pale wolf]

canio doesn't even work with any of the spectral cards besides immolate right

[queen kindle]

does it

[pale wolf]

Even if you had killed the king it would have been a waste

[queen kindle]

breuh

[tired kestrel]

Uncommon is a bit much, when are you taking this realistically

[pale wolf]

Glass Joker doesn't work with any spectrals, and for some reason the only spectral that works with canio is immo

[inland temple]

potentially a flush five build

of some enhanced cards

i might add some more ace synergies

[tired kestrel]

Thats a bit of a bandaid fix no? Your synergies should already be good on their lonesome instead of trying to force them

[inland temple]

also clubs is my favourite suit

[tired kestrel]

You don't need much to have synergy as balatro shows

[queen kindle]

woo

[tired kestrel]

If you're making an ace buffer just for this joker thats not a good idea

[inland temple]

i'm not specifically adding Aces synergies

[sweet bramble]

Ooh based

[tired kestrel]

Fib goat

[inland temple]

tho diamonds do need some love

[tired kestrel]

That sounds good then

[queen kindle]

fib was the mvp that round

[tired kestrel]

It almost always wins, 7 mult is so much

[queen kindle]

sacrificed banana for them

it was worth it

[sweet bramble]

A good clubs fixed deck run is so satisfying with stuff like seeing double

[tired kestrel]

I feel like this card should have some sort of condition, maybe 4oak of aces for 1 copy as a common or 2 copies and keep it uncommon

[sweet bramble]

Doesn’t wild card trigger seeing doubles

[inland temple]

2 copies feel a bit too good

[tired kestrel]

actually now that i think about it yea thats strong

[inland temple]

basically a guaranteed pair

[tired kestrel]

Ah yea because thats what i was worried about, the player being able to play pairs

VEry expensive in this economy

[inland temple]

😭

it adds to played hand so it can overflow the 5 cards limit

[tired kestrel]

That would be something but a blank ace doesn't do much even when reaching the card limit

[sweet bramble]

Seeing my advice in this discord server I’m shocked that I managed to win gold stake with my.. interesting tips

Broken clock is right twice a day ahh player

[inland temple]

i think there is a chance it could spawn with an edition

but it's too rare to rely on

[tired kestrel]

You gotta be wrong even if a hundred times to be right once, and it's always worth it

[inland temple]

i think the function to spawn cars can legitimately apply a random edition

[tired kestrel]

A random edition is kinda strong if you can get glass from it

[sweet bramble]

This is actually fire

[tired kestrel]

With smth like trading card you can effectively practice eugenics on your aces

[inland temple]

still

i think a base ace with chance of edition is still worth it

[tired kestrel]

Ay ty

[sweet bramble]

My favorite thing about this game is that there’s no joker that’s just actually useless no matter how many people may say so, there’s always some niche or situation and solution that makes every joker carry your run

[tired kestrel]

I suppose, it's not like it's op compared to the rest of your mod

[tired kestrel]

Credit card

[inland temple]

the rest of my mod is op when you want it to be op

[sweet bramble]

With vagabond is crazy good

[inland temple]

i rebalanced a lot from the early days of my mod

and now the numbers are sane

[tired kestrel]

You can generally outplay the need for credit card

[sweet bramble]

Or if you’re in an ante with the ox it ends up giving you a free $20

[tired kestrel]

wdym

Cuz i've played a good bit of the balanced version

[inland temple]

when was the last time you played

[tired kestrel]

2 weeks ago maybe?

[inland temple]

huh

[sweet bramble]

But with vagabond the game becomes my life simulator and it’s such a nice synergy

[inland temple]

i don't think it's TOO op

i'm not trying to make big number mods anymore

[lunar zealot]

What's throwback at

[tired kestrel]

It ain't no cryptid mod but it certaintly is stronger than vanilla

[lunar zealot]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[inland temple]

i feel like every vanilla style mod also does that

[lunar zealot]

what's pair at

[inland temple]

i want the things in it to be interesting to play

[lunar zealot]

or high card or flush or whatever

[inland temple]

which might come off as OP

[tired kestrel]

I've yet to see it actually matter

[lunar zealot]

The level of the hand you're playing

[sweet bramble]

It’s niche, but fun and actually a little nice on gold stake

[tired kestrel]

Yes i've taken that into account, the cards are fine it's the numbers

[lunar zealot]

Credit card is a very early game utility joker that allows you to buy out a shop at the cost of economic instability

[inland temple]

if you have some feedback about it lmk

[lunar zealot]

this utility is far too niche to be worth it in the majority of runs

[inland temple]

im open to balancing changes

tho put that in the mod thread

[lunar zealot]

as the opportunity cost of buying out a shop doesn't compensate for the loss of money

and it is in 100% of scenarios better to have interest than be in debt

as interest is the only passive income you have not tied to anything else

among other reasons

[restive plover]

i've never played magic deck on steam and after just playing high antes the past while, lmao. white stake is hilarious

[sweet bramble]

I personally like it but that’s 100% valid

[lunar zealot]

as for its vagabond synergy

what?

those two are completely tangential to one another

[sweet bramble]

Im just addicted to vagabond

[lunar zealot]

and generally you don't want to be in a money hole with vagabond anyway

0-4 is a completely fair area of which to stay in

[tired kestrel]

I might try to do a lil text document actually

[lunar zealot]

Going in debt just makes it that much harder to pivot out of vagabond

[inland temple]

feel free

[lunar zealot]

because generally with vagabond you have end of round money jokers and have made gold cards

[tired kestrel]

You pivot out of vagabond?

[lunar zealot]

going in debt just makes it harder for you to spend the money you have

[sweet bramble]

Fake fans smh smh

[lunar zealot]

of which is already less than to begin with

[lunar zealot]

I mean duh

[sweet bramble]

Ride or die with the bond 🕊️

[tired kestrel]

TRUEEE

[lunar zealot]

Single best tarot gen in the game but still just a tarot gen

use the utility and econ it provides to find xmult jokers

[inland temple]

i love tarot gen

[tired kestrel]

JUST a tarot gen

[lunar zealot]

and then go from there

oml

[sweet bramble]

I win a lot with vagabond

[lunar zealot]

Do you think i'm an idiot

[tired kestrel]

Literally gives you glass more consistantly

Permakeep

Ride or die

[lunar zealot]

oh you do think i'm an idiot

[sweet bramble]

Tarot cards, the weakest thing in balatro and known for not getting you money

[tired kestrel]

no ofc not i'm just messing around

[lunar zealot]

Sure

i'm only trying to help lmao

but alright suit yourself

[pale wolf]

why is glass your sticking point tho

[tired kestrel]

It's glass

I mean

Do i have to say more you get glass and death to keep up the pressure

[pale wolf]

I'm more excited about and lucky and hangman and

[sweet bramble]

I’m not a newbie anymore I took the vagabond pill and understand its downfalls just as much as yall

[lunar zealot]

What mult are you xing

[pale wolf]

gold

[lunar zealot]

generally speaking gold stake runs rely more on +mult jokers a la red card

[sweet bramble]

The vagabond pill has side effects

[lunar zealot]

than strictly base mult or on-scored

[tired kestrel]

Planet mult from all the high priesteses i'm getting

[lunar zealot]

glasses are valued more for the deckfixing

[pale wolf]

those priestesses are smoking something

[lunar zealot]

and i still stand by my original statement

Vagabond is just a tarot generator joker

[latent egret]

just get anything that synergizes with discards and its an ez win

[tired kestrel]

Ok jokes asside my priestess luck has been dummy lately

[lunar zealot]

if you don't pivot out of vagabond you leave yourself vulnerable to crimson heart and violet vessel

[latent egret]

i got castle rebate once

just get lucky bro

[lunar zealot]

'bro'

[latent egret]

as the gender neutral word it has become

[sweet bramble]

Me when not every seed is photo Chad and I have to learn how to play with good or bad jokers 💔 💔

[lunar zealot]

ah yes the word that everyone agrees is gender neutral

as said by discord user number 1 obelisk fan

zero nuance to that statement nosirree

[sweet bramble]

Obelisk is very based as hell

[tired kestrel]

Yea i mean it kinda has become that

[lunar zealot]

If you call me bro or dude i am going to talk shit about you

[tired kestrel]

People have habit so sticky that it just slowly became bad

[tired kestrel]

yo chill we mean nothing buy it whats your deal

[lunar zealot]

well yeah

x2.4 mult per ante is good

[tired kestrel]

It's a sticky habit, most people aren't trying to be rude

[lunar zealot]

insane actually

[sweet bramble]

Welcome to discord my friend we are all insane

[pale wolf]

vagabond has diminishing returns because there is only so much you can fix your deck, eventually it's better to just get the scoring option

[lunar zealot]

yorick scales ~x1.3 mult per ante and madness scales by x1 mult per ante

I don't think there's a single joker that scales faster than obelisk under normal circumstances

hologram and lucky cat can outscale if you specifically build around them

[latent egret]

constellation endgame

[pale wolf]

vamp can

[lunar zealot]

Right

[latent egret]

but besides that, it takes a special setup

[lunar zealot]

But that almost necessitates midas mask which you could justify as normal circumstances

[shell dagger]

Ramen can

[lunar zealot]

[latent egret]

or a thin deck to draw the enhanced cards you just made

[pale wolf]

driver's license can scale to 3x in one step

[lunar zealot]

Or money to make more and more enhanceds

Okay wait but /srs we forgot canio LMAO

[sweet bramble]

Bloodstone solos all

[pale wolf]

You said normal situations so I disregarded parei immo

[lunar zealot]

hmmm you right

[shell dagger]

magic trick perkeo copy immolate parei canio wr

[sweet bramble]

It’s my fault if bloodstone doesn’t trigger I’m not trying hard enough

[pale wolf]

Bloodstone isn't even RNG

[pale wolf]

It's a timing thing

[sweet bramble]

True when the time bloodstone shows up you buy it

[lunar zealot]

Nothing is rng

everything is seed based

[sweet bramble]

Just play seeded runs bro balatro more like balatNO CHALLENGE

[lunar zealot]

The only time i play seeded runs is when i wanna optimize the naneinf seed i found

I got down to a11 naneinf i wonder if that can be pushed further

[sweet bramble]

Play all polychrome blueprint brainstorm hanging Chad photograph and nobody here will ever ever be mad

[pale wolf]

bc glass

[sweet bramble]

Chigoat in my back pocket

[lunar zealot]

anaveragetransgirl
plant doesn't counter photochad
-266

where's fork when you need her

[neat ore]

I love chicot

[sweet bramble]

But when you even look at vagabond lovingly everybody loses their minds 😔

[lunar zealot]

are you like 16

Also like me personally i fuckin hate photochad so there's that

[sweet bramble]

Are 16 you like

[neat ore]

I like doing a green joker run

[lunar zealot]

#theusualsuspects

[pale wolf]

prove it

[latent egret]

smh ageism in the big 25

[sweet bramble]

I’m only 40 years young

[neat ore]

How should I prove it

[pale wolf]

idk ur the scientist

[sweet bramble]

Was it the striped clothes and big iron ball chained to my leg that gave it away

[lunar zealot]

use theorems and postulates and shit

i haven't done proofs in years

[pale wolf]

i did 90 proof last weekend

[neat ore]

I don't really like science

[sweet bramble]

Everything is 50/50 either it happens or it doesn’t #BUYTHEWHEEL

[lunar zealot]

No it's the d*ltarune profile picture

[idle haven]

Where

[lunar zealot]

Over there

[boreal hamlet]

What should I do here? Driver license only x1.5 (not enough enhanced but poly) , fortune teller +10 (holo) and +12 for tarot, along with scholar +10 milt and hanging chad x1.5

[idle haven]

Oh my god sussy deltarune

[sweet bramble]

I think they ran right past us.. 👀

[idle haven]

Who are we hiding from

[sweet bramble]

I have no clue

[idle haven]

Not surprised

[lunar zealot]

Lot of creeps in your fandom huh

[sweet bramble]

Unfortunately yeah

[lunar zealot]

not surprised

[boreal hamlet]

2 pair lvl 3 that’s it

[idle haven]

Shayy mentioned

[boreal oar]

i havent done the maths so dont quote me but i think the bonus king high should clear

[sweet bramble]

I hate the internet 💔 💔 💔 💔

[boreal hamlet]

Thank u guys ❤️

[tired kestrel]

dog finding that out was awful

[idle haven]

Genuinely

I loved the dude

Broke my heart

[lunar zealot]

Wrong server to talk about this

[sweet bramble]

I used their guide the other day to kill roaring and then the next day 👀

[lunar zealot]

though i know the deltarune discord went all 1984 about that

[sweet bramble]

Love the double tap react

[lunar zealot]

'his'

[sweet bramble]

Aw fuck my fault

Fixed

It 4 am for me

[lunar zealot]

Back to balatro

[boreal hamlet]

So king high should work?

[lunar zealot]

Obviously the ace here wins

the king should win too

[sweet bramble]

Let’s talk about 8 ball

[lunar zealot]

so play that and get money

[idle haven]

Im all ears

[sweet bramble]

THARS WHAT IM SAYING

[sweet bramble]

All the haters never had the joyous feeling of the slot machine pouring out its golden riches in front of them

[boreal hamlet]

Like this

Sorry guys I’m new

[worldly barn]

Balatro on the big screen

[boreal hamlet]

Mega belatro

[sweet bramble]

Hell yeah

[worldly barn]

This run went on to ante 39 btw (real)

[sweet bramble]

Heartwarming: pro gambler drops everything to pursue their career

[idle haven]

Ante 40

[worldly barn]

New

[lunar zealot]

did you really have to balacalc that

[sweet bramble]

How could you not do any complicated arithmetic problem in your head

[lunar zealot]

it's 90 x (10 + 10 x 2.25)

well 120

[boreal hamlet]

❤️

[sweet bramble]

Hell yeah

[idle haven]

I see something

[chilly jetty]

That exact thing ( cards per ante ) the first time I used the soul was the reason I decided to make blueprint lol

https://miaklwalker.github.io/Blueprint/

[lunar zealot]

Damn the trains are fucking empty this late

[boreal hamlet]

Huh

[idle haven]

Jokers

I see him

[boreal hamlet]

Am I slow

[idle haven]

Yes

[boreal hamlet]

Good

[sweet bramble]

Me beating joker less challenge deck with only 8 ball (the game let me do it because Its such a chill card)

Also that reminds me I gotta get good with cards like scholar

I wanna do an aces run

[idle haven]

So real twin

We need more ace jokers

[sweet bramble]

Add six of a kind already smh

We are ready

[restive plover]

yippee played green stake on checkered to unlock merry andy

[sweet bramble]

Dude nice

Merry Andy is very fun

[sweet bramble]

Very large blind when very large hand

[idle haven]

Six67seven seed when

[sweet bramble]

Tomorrow

[idle haven]

I like this image

[sweet bramble]

It’s very… image

[idle haven]

We've come full circle

Ok goodnight guys it's 6 38 am

[sweet bramble]

Gn!!

[restive plover]

just checked all my decks rn are at either gold, orange, purple, black, or green, and the ones i never play are red

for stakes

[sweet bramble]

Ayyy close to completionist+ grats!!

[pale wolf]

That is not close

[manic talon]

AJ is just bloodstone, its the exact same joker

[vale shale]

Guys. 1 take Gold stake run challenge today, which deck we talking bout.

[pale wolf]

blue

[vale shale]

Alright alright.

[sweet bramble]

Okay now I wanna play checkered deck more

[pale wolf]

wait WTF

did you have smeared

[manic talon]

no, i just wait until it hit Spade or hearts and skip

hence the "the same as bloodstone"

[pale wolf]

but how surviving otherwise

what was the Joker you sold

[manic talon]

glass

[pale wolf]

oooh

ok

[manic talon]

hallucination

[pale wolf]

ooooh

k

[manic talon]

it also a surefire way to beat VV

but i didnt see VV so its kinda overkill (i could still not draw glass but still have a good chance of surviving)

[pale wolf]

what's the current streak

[manic talon]

im washed, 5

[lunar zealot]

Hahahahha

damn shit my max streak is 2

[pale wolf]

I'm on a two streak right now, I'm hoping I don't completely fuck it up when I get l arrive at work

[sweet bramble]

My win rate is so cooked

[pale wolf]

My goal right now is 10

on blue

[boreal hamlet]

Here? Drivers license still only1.5 cuz poly, fortune teller +10 (holo) and +20 for tarots, straight lvl 2 two pair lvl 3

[sweet bramble]

I’m still learning the ins and outs of gold stake

[boreal hamlet]

Once again thanks guys lmfao I’m new

[sweet bramble]

You’re all good

[pale wolf]

https://efhiii.github.io/balatro-calculator/

when you are adding a joker to the lineup, you can increase the scaling or value it is on by increasing the number that says value

[boreal hamlet]

I’ve tried using that it’s hard asf to use for me like won’t ever get the right amount

[sweet bramble]

I just be bashing my head against the game with strategies straight from hell, and I’m still having a great time rn

[pale wolf]

As long as you remember to put every factor in it should be accurate

without further context from your hand levels It's hard to make a decision just from that screenshot

oh wait you said the hand levels

I don't know what the base scoring is for the hand levels off the top of my head though

[lunar zealot]

what hand

[sweet bramble]

I’m slowly but surely getting c+ and god it’s just so exciting finding dumbass strats that work

[pale wolf]

level 2 straight level 3 2 pair

[calm furnace]

goolden needle got hands

[lunar zealot]

60 x 7

[calm furnace]

its the only thing j have left in this game

[lunar zealot]

60 x 4

[pale wolf]

oh no and then there's more to consider because I didn't realize there were still discards and multiple hands

[lunar zealot]

Haha stupid zebra

[pale wolf]

too much, I can't play the game through a screenshot

I'd rather just play the game

You would need to see the remaining deck to make a good decision

[sweet bramble]

My partner who’s new to the game sends me a billion screenshots I gotta decipher to help them win

[pale wolf]

just teach them to take the screenshot with quick lookup view in the blind, and the hand list, and to include information about any previously played hands

most of the time you should only need 2 screenshots to have useful information

[boreal hamlet]

What do I do now

[sweet bramble]

Naw we just talk and if they really need help they just show me the game lol

[pale wolf]

try toggling the optimize buttons at the top a couple times

oh I misread what what red number was, I thought it was 14,000 and it was calculating incorrectly

[boreal hamlet]

What is EV , evaluation?

[sweet bramble]

That is me actually

[boreal hamlet]

I was thinking about you deadass 😂😂😂

[pale wolf]

expected value, I'm not quite sure what the difference between short-term and long-term is for a single hand

@cloud sinew Should tell me

[boreal hamlet]

Okay

[calm furnace]

omfg fell short of 200 chips

had marble joker + hologram

i hate the golden needle

[sweet bramble]

Gonna go to bed now

gn chat

[boreal hamlet]

Is there any way to save this the GitHub link won’t show discard probability

Gn thanks for ur help

[pale wolf]

does a nine High Street win when you

does a nine high straight win when you Chad polychrome 8

[boreal hamlet]

Tbh I have no idea what that means I’m new

[pale wolf]

A nine High straight is a straight where nine is the highest

[boreal hamlet]

I mean I’m missing 7

[pale wolf]

All you need to do is draw a seven but you only have two left

You have way too many eights for a straight build LOL

[boreal hamlet]

So what u think I should do

[marsh goblet]

lose ig

[pale wolf]

You might also draw a four of a kind or five of a kind maybe which would probably save it too, Not sure which is better to draw for

[boreal hamlet]

thanks for the insight

[marsh goblet]

man this game makes me feel so stupid at times

[lunar zealot]

:(

[boreal hamlet]

That’s me rn

[pale wolf]

mika kami

[boreal hamlet]

I’m a damn shark at Texas but I can’t win at this

[marsh goblet]

i can't tell if im missing important jokers or if im just playing poorly

[pale wolf]

I think usually the issue is economy when that's the vibe

[marsh goblet]

i think im getting really good at economy

a lot of the time the game just doesn't offer any options for economy

and i gotta roll with only gettling like 1-2 dollars of interest a round to keep afloat

[pale wolf]

no minds to game in balatro

[marsh goblet]

my greed has killed me a lot, i often didn't have enough scoring because i wanted to get to 25 bucks

the credit card run dr spectred dr spectred uploaded im pretty sure it was yesterday made me realize that it's fine to not have max interest

[buoyant fog]

Let your greed consume you 🗣️

[marsh goblet]

surviving poor is better than dying rich

[pale wolf]

yeah you can spend down in cases of survival

[marsh goblet]

which you tend to have to do in a lot of seeds early game where the start is undesirable (no econ or consistent scoring)

[pale wolf]

have to secure the win before you can secure the money, I think a big trap people do is trying to overscore as much as they can early on and spending too much money though

[marsh goblet]

oh so i have like

the opposite problem of a lot of people

[buoyant fog]

My favorite part of Balatro is making idiotic misplays

jk that shit sucks

maybe if its lower stakes I'll fuck around

[marsh goblet]

sometimes i feel like i'll be doing a great job surviving but then get jack shit in the shops while managing my money well and i wonder where i went wrong

[buoyant fog]

but on gold stake I almost never skip

[marsh goblet]

only good skip is investment skip unless you have a double tag

[buoyant fog]

I swear the seeds on higher stakes have less joker chance or something

[marsh goblet]

especially on zodiac deck

i've been trying to gold stake zodiac deck

and for some reason my shops are so ass

[pale wolf]

zodiac gets more jokers bla bla bla

[marsh goblet]

even though im supposed to have more to work with

i will have multiple shops in a row where it's just 3 planets i don't care about

[buoyant fog]

I havent played zodiac deck yet tbh

[pale wolf]

brutal

[buoyant fog]

I'm going through each deck one at a time

[marsh goblet]

i feel like in those cases it's less of me playing bad and more of there being some pack that had a great joker that i didn't open and i ate shit for it ig

[cloud sinew]

if your shops are bad on zodiac then they'd be worse on every other deck basically

[white zodiac]

rentals - less money flexibility - less shop opportunity - less jokers

[buoyant fog]

which is probably not the best strategy because I'll get too used to the mechanics of one deck, but I think it forces me to use my brain more

[cloud sinew]

stake by stake > deck by deck imo

[marsh goblet]

at least i wouldn't get as many shops with only planets on other decks lol

ik zodiac gets slightly more jokers but it feels like the game just hates me

[marsh goblet]

and says "no jokers for you, have perishable rental crazy joker"

[lunar zealot]

this is the single most bait joker to ever exist

in this whole game

[marsh goblet]

why wouldn't you take this

it's negative

[lunar zealot]

there is not a single joker i could find in shop more bait than negative idol

[marsh goblet]

free temperance value

[cloud sinew]

youre not special /not negative
the game isn't giving you worse runs, you're just not able to capitalise on them

[marsh goblet]

i am aware, im just stating how it feels not knowing what im doing wrong

[white zodiac]

8 ball doing more than idol

[marsh goblet]

you don't have to state the obvious, it just makes me feel worse lol

[lunar zealot]

FUCK IT

[buoyant fog]

stake by stake might be more efficient, but I feel like gold stake wears me out so much that it makes every other stake feel like I breeze when I start fresh

[marsh goblet]

im not an 8 ball fan and i like temperance value

[lunar zealot]

YOLO

[buoyant fog]

thats why I do it

[white zodiac]

oh boy

[lunar zealot]

first idol proc of the run

[cloud sinew]

I think that makes you worse though because you have such a sudden drop in difficulty

[pale wolf]

balatrodle spoilers in 4 https://www.balatrodle.com/

[marsh goblet]

deck by deck feels better to me, i can get a break from gold stake every now and then

[lunar zealot]

second idol proc of the run

[buoyant fog]

True, but it feels more fun. I don't have a lot of fun on gold stakes LOL

[cloud sinew]

I was meaning for getting better at the game

[white zodiac]

8 ball deck fixing btw

[cloud sinew]

that's probably partially because you change stakes so rapidly

[lunar zealot]

third idol proc of the run'

[marsh goblet]

gold stake is fun, it's just that losing a lot isn't fun

[buoyant fog]

theres nothing more morale shattering than having such a good run on gold stake only to lose on ante 7 three times in a row

[pale wolf]

@cloud sinew lilo what does long term and short term ev mean for a single hand

[buoyant fog]

Possibly, but I've only beaten 3 gold stakes in about 135 hours

I'm taking it reaaaaal slow

[marsh goblet]

ur just luckier than me ig

[pale wolf]

ur so good

[buoyant fog]

but thats also because I do not use strategy guides or outside help if I can help it

[white zodiac]

luck isn't a winning factor in this game

[pale wolf]

fib+idol seems viable

[buoyant fog]

that is objectively false

[boreal oar]

i got a 2 today 😎

[pale wolf]

luck is a losing factor

[cloud sinew]

luck is not enough of a factor for most people to be complaining about it

[pale wolf]

nice

[boreal oar]

walkie talkie is broken in the trodle meta

[cloud sinew]

it's like 0.1% of why you lose runs

genuinely

99.9% of why you lose will be because of mistakes you made

[pale wolf]

is it tho

[buoyant fog]

I'd say drawing bad hands is a good portion of the reason I lose runs

[marsh goblet]

damn am i really that garbage at this game?

[boreal oar]

well not for today i didnt use it but it clears +chips, +mult and xmult as well as being a common

[cloud sinew]

yes, most people are

[lunar zealot]

BWAH

[buoyant fog]

see I disagree with that mentality

[pale wolf]

yeah but if it is a chips or +mult or xmult then You have to spend maybe two more guesses finding out which one

[cloud sinew]

by "most people are bad" I mean they lose more often than they win

[boreal oar]

maybe but a 3 is a successful trodle to me. my average is 4.3

i consider above 6 to be a loss

[white zodiac]

decision making determines the flow of your run, luck doesn't have a significant enough factor to alter your decision making to where losing would be an inevitable result

[marsh goblet]

you talk pretty big, im intrigued by what i can learn from actually seeing you play rather than you just saying "you're losing because you suck"

[buoyant fog]

hmmm... fair point, but I feel like theres very little games where a good portion of the player base wins more than they lose

[pale wolf]

ive only gotten above 6 when i didnt fully understand the rules of what RNG and scaling are in balatrodle

[cloud sinew]

in the short term sure, but are you playing optimally for deckfixing/getting digging power (how many cards you can see in your deck)? absolutely not

ergo it's not luck that killed you necessarily unless you played perfectly to mitigate it and still died

[boreal oar]

i get above 6 when its like a 6 dollar uncommon i havent found the ability for yet

[marsh goblet]

ngl i think the biggest problem i have is figuring out what to do in the first shop

[pale wolf]

You might lose to bad luck, but your losing decision point was earlier in the run when you force yourself into the situation where you needed luck

[lunar zealot]

i lost the run

[cloud sinew]

it's a good thing that you're losing to you own mistakes though. it means you can learn from it and get better at the game, if it was just luck then this game would be so fucking boring imo

[lunar zealot]

big fucking shocker i lost the idol run 😭

[pale wolf]

and sometimes bad draws are simply unavoidable, i saw lilo lose to draws before

[lunar zealot]

fie and fie again

[marsh goblet]

in a regular first shop like this, what would yall do? boss is the goad btw

[white zodiac]

sometimes ppl can't register that they've died on ante 7 because of the decision making they've done at ante 3

[buoyant fog]

So maybe are you guys saying its not luck based in the way chess isn't luck based? I'm trying to understand

[latent egret]

if you're a gambler buffon pack

[white zodiac]

most of the time it's just buffoon pack

[latent egret]

the chance of 2 eternal rentals is low

[white zodiac]

if you're normal*

[marsh goblet]

that's super true, i won't let the difficulty of this game dissuade me from getting better at the game

[pale wolf]

buffoonery

[buoyant fog]

Honesly idk what I'm even trying to say

[boreal oar]

but never zero

[lunar zealot]

HOOOOOOLY

[cloud sinew]

I'm saying that it isn't "luck based" in that you practically never die due to luck, you die because you didn't make the right decision with what the game gave you

[latent egret]

jupiter here is not a terrible play

[white zodiac]

im not picking up jupiter

[pale wolf]

luck is an element, and a large part of skill in the game is minimizing its effect on your run

[marsh goblet]

i think i kinda tend to overthink it because i could go buffoon or just go next for interest

or jupiter is the safe option

[latent egret]

having jupiter/saturn is the only thing i might take instaod of a buffon

[buoyant fog]

Okay, that makes a lot more sense

[marsh goblet]

uuuggggghhh

castle

[pale wolf]

I would say it's a terrible play myself

[white zodiac]

saturn and judgment is the only non buffoon pick up I'll do

[buoyant fog]

GUYS ONLY AN HOUR AND A HALF LEFT ON MY SHIFT YIPPEE

[cloud sinew]

I would rather take priestess there

worst case it's -$1

[pale wolf]

yeah, it can't make Jupiter

[latent egret]

you garantee you win the boss

[pale wolf]

🤪

[white zodiac]

fh strush

[cloud sinew]

a level 2 flush isn't a one-shot there

[calm furnace]

ive done it

[latent egret]

but you get 400 points+ and you defo get at least a two pair

[pale wolf]

nice

[calm furnace]

god goolden needle was rough

[supple veldt]

i heard vagabond was actually op, is there any truth to this

[calm furnace]

dependa

[marsh goblet]

yeah i win every run that i get vagabond on

if i don't like

royally fuck it up

[cloud sinew]

also priestess better because worst case you get 2 bad planets and you just take something else instead

[pale wolf]

I wouldn't say he's overpowered, he's just very powerful

[buoyant fog]

only if you dont use it like Northernlion does

[white zodiac]

this isn't a good spend of 3 bucks compared to priestess

[buoyant fog]

don't throw the run just to make it work LMAO

[marsh goblet]

oh damn yeah i should have gone priestess here

[latent egret]

din't start me on nl's gameplay

i can't watch his balatro videos anymore

[buoyant fog]

Dude I hate how angry it makes me

[cloud sinew]

this is why zodiac is goated

[marsh goblet]

ehh on black deck ur gonna be broke anyways so take it

[pale wolf]

vagglebond seems good

[latent egret]

so real

[cloud sinew]

more planets with more shop slots means you're so much more likely to find your ideal planet

[white zodiac]

zodiac or magic for consumable manipulation

[marsh goblet]

crying rn

[supple veldt]

better win with my eternal vag

[marsh goblet]

what is the base price of bp anyways i have 7 bucks

[pale wolf]

hate zodiac

[buoyant fog]

He is such a smart guy but the way he tunnel visions on his gold stake runs is genuinely infuriating

[pale wolf]

10

[cloud sinew]

$10

[marsh goblet]

would i even be able to afford a regular bp lol

damn

[pale wolf]

with discount voucher

[buoyant fog]

I mean just take for a while

[pale wolf]

you could

if you have something it's applicable for the current round then I would just take it for that and sell it before the rental fee

[buoyant fog]

I'd take a Perishable BP because it can always show up again yeah?

[marsh goblet]

ante 1 no mult im gonna cry

[marsh goblet]

rental

[latent egret]

i see mult

[marsh goblet]

it's ante 1

[buoyant fog]

Tank the psychic damage and take lusty

[boreal oar]

lusty is right there

[marsh goblet]

fr??

[buoyant fog]

Okay nvm ur true

[pale wolf]

Castle should let you survive though I think?

[cloud sinew]
