hmmmm
yeah
you lose 2 interest
econ
Honestly he's a great Balatro player too, but I feel as though its a bit too much to take in how to play it right, which I think is totally fair. But honestly you can't even be too mad because he beat C+ faster than a lot of the backseaters could have
i had the same though
ig i just go next
castle is on hearts this roound
cryin rn
btw for castle
you want to remove bad hits from your deck first even if it removes smeared value later on
btw having two rentals and two gold cards makes the exact same melody as funky town
smeared value is the least of my worries before i get the smeared
does anyone know what the theming is for castle
so cutting diamonds into hearts, clubs into spades. means you have a higher proportion of castle hits to cards and it can't roll a low # suit
oh wait does having more of one suit increase the chances of hitting that suit? i didn't know that, i thought it was completely random
sending different battalions of troops into battle?
seiges, the colours (flag, etc) of the castle changing based on who captures it
ooh interesting
they scale the castle and change its color
i like it
only aj and tdl have random pick mechanics on what suit/poker hand they choose
yeah castle is based on your deck just as rebate and idol are
scale meaning climb does so much for theming ideas
i heard ancient joker is different in that it just randomly picks
randomly picks without ever repeating twice in a row to dodge suit bosses
it picks any different suit, so if it's hearts it can't pick hearts again
its a 1 in 3
this is a very good thing btw
it means you can't die to suit bosses with ancient joker if you know how to time your skips
right i forgot about that too
I think ancient should pick only suits you have in your deck personally
do i just go for emperor and take world?
but maybe then it'd have to be nerfed somewhat
What's the boss
wheel
I think I would just take emperor first and see what it gives
this would make aj a lame better idol
before making any other decisions
again, worst case is -$1
the existence of checkered kinda eliminates this from working with intended balance
Honestly yeah fair
giving aj the ability to miss on your deckfixing probably makes it worse? unless you build the same way as currently
i fucked it...
that doesn't work with AJ's current ability though
i greeded for the bus instead of just playing two flushes
which is that it never picks the same suit twice
I mean I think that's specifically to facilitate skipping strategies
Does it really?
if it was deck based it would actually be worse quite often
I swear I've seen it do clubs 2 times in a row
You definitely have not
you haven't
unless you were playing a long time ago
like almost 2 years ago atp
Nah I wasnt LMAO
then you haven't
died ante 2 but i learned something that run
I have
Im remembering wrong then
prob thinking of castle or something
now don't get greedy
id rather win 100% of my runs without ever learning anything than lose 50% of my runs and learn something each time
probably LOL
ik i lost a run being greedy for rebate on ante 1 😭
if you won 100% of your runs then there's basically nothing to learn
or you don't play enough
there's more than just balatro lilo
id rather win all of my runs than just the "good" ones
this first scenario prevents me from learning Spanish while I'm playing
balatro discord in #🕹・game-discussion , figured you were talking about this in the context of balatro
plays one game ever
calls it a day
goes back to work
I could have done this
I won my first run ever
judgement more like huge mint
you have good taste
because its very cool
1 blocked message
not even ignored im crying
ngl i've come to realize that runner is better on small hand builds than on straight builds
im like 5 jokers away from c++ so why am I so lazy
There is? Damn, why didnt anyone told me
real
runner + trousers my beloved
as a combo they're awesome
hold up
your theory crafting is based?! 
i feel that
I think it's because The opportunity to get four or five Jokers in one run has passed
scoring is hand agnostic but scaling is hand specific
I just don't wanna play outside of my black deck profile lol
and it sets up Obelisk which is good
i heard the doc say it and my brain exploded
Only ever really play runner in straights when its plasma
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1379214645742796911/1441214924218044569/screen-20251120-185041.mp4?ex=6921a43e&is=692052be&hm=12d584fe1866f2bfad23eef24f31ea0d43715d352356b485f349770f2f4c3043&
i kept only seeing saturns this run so i ended up building for it a bit even though i had runner
Otherwise i just play 1 straight per round to scale it and play rando hands
Mr President the Balatro has hit the second school whiteboard
Yes it's jiggly here too
or in the rare chance you got nothing else going for you
alright i need some mult, ride the bus or even steven
rebate almost dead?
I like how you discarded a straight first thing
I sold chiclet for shortcut and immediately forgot shortcut existed
pretty cool huh
i need a bit of luck for steven to work tho
I think I would bus here myself
the fancy shortcut grab you did for like 2 seconds was cool ig
I was circling my 69
yeah ig
which was the real goal of selling chicot
not immediate survival but i can play 2 straights since i have hand size voucher
saturn is saving my ass here
i may be cooked, leaf truly is a backbreaking boss 😔
because of the grabber voucher
but I guess it depends,, kind of hard to scale runner without face cards
bus and runner is sorta conflicting with what u wanna do but other situations I'll usually take the rental bus given that I have an econ joker to pay for it
let me try something real quick
im out
i have completionist+ but not completionist lol
Is the order, kinda ass? I feel like you never actually want to go for straights when you find order, its always after you found a good straight joker prior youd want to take order, atleast from my experience
it happens
i'm missing one skip tag, i don't have any plan to do it until after c++ tbf
lol
Not skipping one tag or not taking illusion is easy enough to do for skipping C entirely
don't throw don't throw don't throw don't throw
and bloodstone
i got most of the skip tags from the 12 round run
same
woah
i did this with the add 25 i think cards to ur deck from the shop in a random white stake run
thought it'd be cool to do both in the same run
I don't rly know what square is doing rn
i havent found it cause i dont really buy trick without holo around
trick is the woated voucher without holo lol, the magic trick 2 should be the base ngl
I just buy it if I have funds since the shop weight is so insignificant
only problem is each card now costs like 6 bucks
cherry blossom erosion
whick makes zero sense
incredibly silly typecast win
it's not like $3? i assumed it would be 2/3 for enhanced cards ngl- i've only taken magic trick 2 literally once ever so didn't realise
why is it silly
just looks like a very solid build besides throwback
throwback+madness is a lil silly actually
throwback was the silly part
Peak deck trust
i assume cos throwback, madness, 2 low use jokers
yeah what happened was like
madness is pretty decent but throwback in any run makes it silly
3 dollars for enhanced, 6 for an edition card
madness and throwback are opposites
this is crazy tf
i got madness and gronkler immediately, then saw throwback and was like "what if i just skip until i beat ante 4"
and so i did that and found card sharp along the way
THAT looks better
level 11 pair gaming
miles better
Wsg
aww it kinda looks like a river now
How would you guys feel if Negative was made apart from the other editions
wdym
Why though
Just hypothetical
uhhhh I wouldn’t really like it
Both negative and foil, basically separating it from other editions
For example
I mean to be honest I wouldn’t really care but meh 
there should really be a cost chart for enhanced/editions on illusions page itself wiki wiki
don't really care much if it's added
the good thing to come out of this is that in endless runs you would actually be able to use wheel
I feel like in a lot of cases this would be a nerf
yeah I couldnt find it either
How so?
It makes wheel usable on negatives
You can no longer guarantee ectoplasm
I think the matter in question is if this would be unbalanced
wdym
tru
Ectoplasm would always be able to hit
Yeah ecto would become better
I mean like ectoplasm targeting
but you wouldn’t reeeeally be able to guarantee it anyways since having editions on things is luck based
Maybe too op in some cases?
Trueee
yeah it's not like you can choose what wheel hits so you can't really control ecto anyways
that's more of an endless thing
yea
and wheel is kinda already uncontrollable
I guess it would mean that you have to sell a foil if you don't want it to be negative
You can't really choose what wheel does anywyas
Exactly
but why wouldn't you want a negative foil
i am a degenerate gambler, if i see wheel i am buying it
start of ante 6, can i stop spamming high card and start going obelisk mode or give it another round?
It's still an open slot
I buy it because of the decent ev
So verdict would that suck or be an upgrade/sidegrade
go ahead, play those 2pairs and 3oaks
Maybe an upgrade
tbf foil/ polychrome are huge, and holo is still decent, $12 for that is pretty cheap. even if it was 1/100 i would buy it though- it is fun
so something I do with obyliks is that I spam hands on pairs as the obelisk ceiling, never really high card. on some occasions straights/flush/2 pair as the ceiling
I think what we have now is good enough
sometimes you just fall into it
Bloating the edition pool would be a little too much
Make them separate
ik i had a fortunate start this run but i think im piloting it super well
It's gonna be harder to get the edition you want on a wheel
I just said like have it be a different wheel
Or not obtainable thru it
sometimes
So you want an entirely different pool of Editions?
i'm not sure what more editions they could have, there is mult, chips and xmult. xchips wouldn't be added unless an x chips joker was added first. Maybe like a $1 per round edition would be ok
I like foil more than the other hits
X chips would be hilarious but needs to be weaker than Xmult
Basically
It's not getting added ever
foil is my number 1 hit for gold stake, poly isn't far behind tho, it has got my scoring just over the edge a decent amount of times
Hot take: eternal sticker should be an ability
Neato Jokers made me love Foil
chip jokers can be +chips or xchips if you're open minded
Xchips would just be broken
HOT hot take, Eternal jokers should act as a Sacrificial Lamb for the knife
so if it got debuffed/perished you could sell it?
?
Foil best, then Polychrome then Holographic
Bait.
That would defeat the purpose of an eternal yeah
if eternal was an ability then you could disable the ability with something that disables abilities
such as when a perishable Joker perishes
Maybe obtainable
It really depends on how they approach that mechanic
Eternal perishable
On black stake+
No I meant eternal being something you can put on jokers or playing cards
Golder stake
in which eternal and perishable are mutually exclusive
That's what I said
That is an ability that can be disabled
they should add wheel of misfortune- 1/4 chance to delete a random joker
I was explaining to zebra
What other ways other than it being xmult with a different color.
Eternal playing cards would be HUGE
Oh srry
?
there should be a joker that adds eternal to the leftmost joker when sold
that would stink
why
How so?
That's it, it can be broken if you mix both
Immune to immolate and glass breaking
card removal is essentially impossible for undesired hits
You're essentially asking for every deck to become Plasma
making your deck smaller is better not worse
Glass breaking would be insane
The point is to break them.
Actually this sounds very interesting...
maybe if you had a red sealed glass you would want to make it eternal, sounds very niche to me
But immolate should still be able to break cards
No but when you use immolate it could destroy cards you don't want to get destroyed. So you put eternal on them to prevent that
glass breaking is more of an upside than not generally
You're missing the part where this is something you would put intentionally on a playing card, not a naturally occurring event
no I get it, I just don't think it would be very impactful
So what you're saying is the only good thing about it is the fact that it dilutes the shop with more xscore jokers?
i feel like even without the money immolate would be good
Playing glass cards carefree?
it would be
yea
When you don't get many cryptids or deaths
it removes a good part of glass cards
y'all got any tips for red deck on black stakes
I'm not saying it should happen because I honestly don't see Thunk adding it
which is that they can disappear and make way for better things like seals
Glass cards destroying isn't always good
?
it usually is, if you're relying on glass you're probably already losing
Glass cards aren't meant to be your only line of scoring, they are a sort of bail me out of this round cards.
I don't think multiplying a bigger number is as game warping as you think when mult is still starving on the other end outside of plasma specific conditions
For nanlets sure, but glass breaking is mostly really good
The humble glass card builds:
go for money/ +mult early, +chips and xmult are also good. taking a mid eternal joker early is completely fine if it beats the first couple antes
The glass card build you want is glass Joker, which wants you to destroy them LOL
Indestructible, not immutable
You can still change it
It's still a build people do
Still not sold.
when the buffoon pack comes out sizzling
Eternals are a jokers thing.
I destroy them
aight
Purpur.
I just don't think adding an eternal sticker to playing cards just to avoid the small chance of finding immolate, drawing the card you don't want to destroy, and immo destroying it
and unbreakable glass truly isnt that valuable
You have the option dude, that's what makes the game so variable in content
A) don't eternal your cards, feed Glass Joker
B) feed it and play other jokers
he made a sequel tweet lol
Money is important, rebate can take advantage of the extra discards
what if that was the new blue stake lol
How would you even make your card eternal
oh also u wanna get above interest cap as early as possible, this is the most basic winmore thing u can do
some random spectral
probably a tarot or spectral
Anyways I feel like this is more of an opinion issue here
That's a Cryptid mechanic actually
the only thing that would make this pull better is if I had The Club early
Standard packs or a spectral i assume.
New card
There's a spectral that allows you to put eternals on a joker
I DIDN'T THROW YEEEEEAAAAAAAAH
okay so we're feeling generous today
Rental and Perishable would have no use I think
Bus and runner and obelisk and you're expecting to lose?
streak: 3
i've never won an obelisk run before
no they were expecting to throw
Perishable would debuff your cards but you can't sell/destroy them like jokers
so i had to lock in
Thats different
AAAH
Throwing with bus and obelisk is very possible lol
yeah lol
save your money IMO
/s
what why
What do you usually play on
pc is great
Mobile.
valid
Smart fridge
Which is why it would be a card where you would only put it on your DESIRED cards
mobile balatro ui is goated
because it feels like you're literally playing on a table
having buttons on the cards doesn't feel very poker
Mot only that but you can play insanely fast compared to the pc.
!!!
I've never actually thought of it that way
I'm not quite sure that's true
honestly uhhh
It might be a skill issue though.
I'm taking marble here /j
The swiping does feel like playing on a poker table
Lotta mult tbf.
It'd be way cooler if it allowed you to swipe your playing cards instead of tapping
Valid.
I mean I don't think it's terrible to be honest
You win regardless
im so proud of myself i played so well this run
these runs are why i play this game
god i love getting good at video games
There's more use cases, don't act like people don't already love Eternal Jokers for similar reasons
You're probably just used to playing on mobile rather than pc. The controls are extremely different lol
or irregardless
That red card could probably outscale Groker lmao
Speculative dwayne the rock jokerson.
antiregardless
I've played Mobile more, I play faster on PC
gardless
I play pc just for handy
with the initial gard
My friends said the same thing so that's probably correct, i was rather quite bad at moving the mouse fast and not misclicking 30 times along the way lol.
it's like "inflammable" meaning the same as flammable, the opposite of flammable is uninflammable ???
I know why but it's stupid
unflamable
Iflammable
I've always got the connotation of explosive potential with inflammable
versus just flammable being burnable
inflammablen't
it's because it comes from Latin inflammare which means you're able to set fire to it
The opposite of flammable is nonflammable
the other antonym is something im not allowed to say on this server
It starts with r
oh cool
Did you know the word overwhelmed means whelmed
whelmed isn't a word
unpaired words my beloved
What's the best voucher, I really like Omen Globe and the Paint Brush+Palette
grabber
grabber, and then paintbrush or overstock IMO
Crystal ball is pretty good too
Incorrect
How do you type onomonopia.
whelmen is the old english term
hi bruce
Grabber and Nacho Tong on Black Deck is goated
Overstock, Grabber, Crystal Ball and Paintbrush
it means the same thing as overwhelm
Antimatter on Black Deck also
onomatopeia?
they added the over- prefix after the bubonic plague
okay but we don't speak old english
for some reason
grabber, paint brush definitely feels better but grabber secretly does more imo
You can make an argument with the boss reroll voucher
BRUCE WAYNE??
It's money.
it technically is but no one uses it
Omg just had Cavendish go extinct on me lol
Dammit foiled again
close enough
whelm
and it's scaling for scaling jokers
How often do you guys use Observatory in a run without Perkeo
I'm quite surprised no mod utilized Pennywise yet
i mean it's free mult
Not claiming voucher, actual use
How would it work as a Joker?
Free...
I think there's one in the works, but I'm not sure how it's coming along
You have to buy the planet cards
I think something to do with numbered cards because of how he preys on children
$70 my beloved
$60.
you probably have money by the time you have it
Wait fuck.
He prefers children because they're easily painted with fear, he'll gladly devour adults too
Yes, it's still not correct to say free mult
Anyone with a phobia is flavorful for him
Free = $0
yeah much like I prefer cooked food because its easily gotten, but if im dying of starvation ill eat a squirrel raw
Ik i'm nitpicky
Rental Cavendish dies and then this comes along lmao
beautiful
This is pretty funny cuz in the new series, my man was so hungry, he didn't even bother scaring his victims
The equivalent of not bothering with the seasonings
im scared of beautiful women
was King involved in the writing at all
Is there anything that is definitely on a finished state that's never getting updated?
Stakes I'd say, aside from the Blue Stake rebalancing
I'm not sure?
Not sure I can really care about spin-off material not made by king
$7 for a common holy shit.
But it's honestly a great watch
Nice subjective phobia
bye jolly hi ramen
sorry to bother you
Actually, he did helped with the writing
Positive meme jumpscare.
hmm interesting
It's a prequel to the movies before Losers club and everything
Welcome to Derry
just like real life inflation doesn't matter if you pull yourself up by your bootstraps (read: be inhumanly rich)
We also got to see the literal PRIMAL form of IT
Before he took the form of Pennywiss the clown
specifically the japanese goth girl type
wennypizs
erosiole?
oresion is so good
too bad I threw it away
Petition to start calling stone joker dwayne the rock jokerson.
Stephen King answered some questions about it and he hinted that some parts of it are based on the novel

is pennywise wise
If you consider his age, actually yeah
He's ancient
Now that i think of it, he might get featured in the next update.
idk, what's his gold stake win streak
To anyone who thinks they can beat that thing, no you can't
No matter who you are, you're afraid of something
i'd win
And he WILL know
Don't they routinely win every book
I'm ain't no clown, I'm wise wit ma pennies 
They're not the main character, that's for sure
lmao
twins
unwise penny
So nah, unless they're the main characters from the books, you ain't fuckin beating this thing
Because at some point in the series, he actually went against trained soldiers
yeah that's what I said
Guess how that went
So, how would you go about Modding Pennywise as a joker chat?
this might be such a dumb question but do you speak Japanese
it's all in the spirit of yorick tech
this joker gains 5 mult per number card scored
not very well but I'm learning
Ah, I see
im fluent in vietnamese and english
kanjikun is fluent in every dialect of Japanese
Immediately makes it one of the best +mult scaling joker
TIL that challenges dont count for win streaks
i spaek balatro
I mean it's a legendary right
You decide on that
okay it's a legendary
It'd be fitting if he was Legendary
shoddy in spanish and korean, novice in japanisu
Actually
thats sick
Isn't IT canonically a female?
merry andy isnt actually a named joker i dont think, It's a term for a type of funny guy
mr bones and chaos the clown are the only two named non-legendary jokers
They get special treatment
joker's name is Jimbo but it's not his item name
reason I asked is cause I was gonna ask if you knew how to pronounce takamine
jimbo
x4 mult
I have a feeling this can actually spark a Mandela Effect
ta ka mi ne

This might actually be good to add
Whenever I hear white guys say it it sounds like Taco mine
fuck no
It's vanilla friendly enough
the mod grab bag has this
The art is just a more detailed illustration of Jimbo
But I got a takamine guitar recently, wanted to tell people about it but am too embarrassed to try and pronounce
only Japanese I know is Watashi Ringo
not even joking 😭
I tried learning to impress this Japanese guy but he was straight so I gave up LMAO
that's not that hard to pronounce I thought you wanted me to decipher entire sentences
if this doesnt naneinf i delete the balatro
I sold sly for hit the road cuz I needed emergency xmult for the boss and then next shop had sly again 
nah I may or may not just be a little stupid
kanjikun i thought you were japanese tbh
no
kanjikun is killing m
implying that the staff at the omakase complimented my japanese speech and dialect would prob give away that I'm not japanisu
I won a run without xmult 
japanisu
I love that word
i don't know japanese but i think there's some phonology similarities with toki pona
true
I can't stop winning
some ppl speak it with mora i think instead of syllables
and the vowels are the same and consonants are unaspirated (idk when or if that changes in japanese tho)
win in 2 hands pls
I did
excellent
would've beaten vessel :3
+69 perfect ending
matters much more than anything else
I only wish that I had the economy for red card to also be +69
it was like 9
awesome synergy
delgrat might just be the worst econ joker ever made
mmmmm
yep
and it's still not even that bad
another blue stake down. the gay couple appeared last ante so i bought them for the funsies
yaoi
soon it will be 6 dollars per round 
not ice how bloodstone probably did nothing here 🔥
speculative recyclomancy lfg
blue stake rework*
im talking about the blue stake rework but sure
STRAIGHT couple between a FEMALE and a MALE.
wanted to turn everything into wild cards and collect the four stones
baron/mime is yaoi
like... from the poker hand? how...?
I've been having terrible luck with aj lately so it's a nice change of pace
wdym by "terrible luck"
Didn't mean baronmime.
not cool
Not for my runner
even skipping seems fine
The worst rank possible for straits
true
nothing appears in the shop to help the run and i get absolutely clapped by something like the goad cause i always forget to check blinds (that's on me)
why would you skip over ankhing here
yeah that's on you
The ankh is more money.
shop isn't tho
suspicious lack of red card:
where is the red card.
i ate it
did you optimise the shop perfectly?
tarot blocking, rentals for temperance, etc
the speculative retroactive red card
"oh did you find mate in 27 moves?"
if you didn't play perfectly then it's on you
that's literally how it works
i am NOT the balatro player oat
too bad balatro shops isnt chess
Retroactive redcard sounds like the nastiest thing ever.
just take stuff in order
twinning @cloud sinew
just gotta find the right one
let me learn bruh 💔✌️
omg twinning this is actually so peak
I already have plus 120 chips from the runners so I can pretty much just ignore trying to find straights now
and I am? you said it was down to luck which is only true if you played perfectly and somehow lost
its probably not that much better than actual red card because like, at most you skip like 2-3 packs without red card
and now it's perishable 30% of the time
okay
sometimes more, depends on how the planet packs are hitting
prob some dumb shit like this or something
I mean
that's right I also lose cause I literally don't draw the flush 🙏
not the nerf I wanted to my savior
there's a good example of mitigating luck
Even if you rolled low you still win because of your preparation
well in this case I didn't lose
I don't think cert is the play there anyway even with baseball
it was just annoying
well in this case I wouldve died otherwise (also recent purchase)
4 remaining
last perishable died iirc
red card has seen worse, much much worse
actually yeah kind of funny to say it wasn't the play when it literally saved you
we need to look forward
i did not think it would be that close
end result
hey everyyy,i 'am newbie
hiya
just got a blueprint from a rare skip
why do people even like blackboard it's useless
this is why you always gamble
orange stake
should've played the heart first smh
smh
I kind of want to take that smeared
dw I learned on this run
probably will interfere with scaling though
what if riff raff shits out uncommons instead
red card giving x1.5 mult would unironically be the perfect +mult joker
Completely overpowered
@cloud sinew twinning
calculated
:3
I swapped card sharp for the poly lmao
real
doomed synergy
I don't need to scale runner anymore unless it pops up on its own
over 200 runner chips
Free win 🙏
make it go to 500
The obelisk pivot would be insane
neither holographic or foil help me massively so it potentially just makes jokers more expensive
polychrome would be nice
hmm
I heard you need foil on your double runner build
I'm not even trying to scale runner and I keep getting to scale it
the noise I just made
Man fuck you
I had to check to make sure I'm actually on gold stake
Even though I've seen rentals
I think I actually get rid of ride the bus here
takamine
Right it was a guitar
Should I take a chance on the Invisible Joker?
Jokers I want copied: 3x Blueprint, 3x Brainstorm, Perkeo
Jokers I would settle for copied: Triboulet, The Idol, Sock and Buskin, Hanging Chad
Jokers I don't want copied but wouldn't likely sell: Negative Golden Ticket, Negative Juggler, Negative Turtle Bean
Other choice is to take my chances on finding Showman and aggressively rolling for a 7th Brainstorm or Blueprint and/or hope that Perkeo making 7 Eris a round can keep up with the antes.
Last, what would I sell? My non-negative jokers are 2 Blueprints, Sock and Buskin, The Idol, and Two Brainstorm.
anyone know why my game freezes when i try to play my first hand, it also freezes my computer completely so i have to restart my pc?
did you mod the game?
I did before yes but i think i uninstalled them
delete your mod folder and reinstall the game :p
i forget where it is xD
i got an idea
what about rent cards?
basically, the cards consume money
BUT
they got a lot of efects
i think i found it
I found a config map with "cryptid" i now have these left which one do i remove
You can also just move the mod folder somewhere else that the game won't be able to find
just load the vanilla game, not steam modded
aight
Flower pot, tribe and throwback are the worst xmult jokers
i think i should
baron
worse than tribe
?? Lmao what
Thats a strange take
Barons bad but definitely not worse than tribe
Did i over commit to flush of spades? I had good economy i sacrificed all of it for barony. clicked on reset money to zero for rare joker spectral card.
it definitely is
tribe can actually use +mult jokers and baron cant
Second soul of the day fellas
Fair
Holy blunder
flushes suck and tribe don't really help that much for it but there are situations where you do play it
aj, checkered, smeared sometimes
suit-specific is easier to fix for than rank-specific, tribe can utilise +mult much better than baron can, also baron encourages you to keep a lot of kings in hand which means its much harder to play hands that scale their base mult well
would ouija be okay if it picked the rank of the leftmost card instead of a random one
why "leftmost" instead of just
selected
I don't know something feels weird about selecting a card and then having it affect the rest of the hand, but that would work too
its more just that like
you can reorder the cards
well yeah
so making it leftmost just makes it more convoluted
it doesnt change anything besides making it more annoying
I mean it changes from the previous Ouija
but yeah sure could be selected as well
functionally the same
Eternal only run ig
functionally less annoying
you die to leaf btw
You already have all eternals
You wish you had space
the only way you dont die to leaf is if fist and photo dont matter for score
Well I'm currently hex maxxing
or you get a negative non-eternal ofc
Even if I die I don't care cuz this is hilarious
why did you take the eternal photograph
Silly run
fist and photograph, my favourite combo /j
perfect application for Pagliacci
this would be incredibly strong
I seem to get very mixed responses on how strong or weak this would be
from skilled players no less
I wanted it to be a legendary and I got convinced down to rare
its only weak against crimson because now all your multiplication effects are on one joker
Yay a negative! Its eternal.
Wee
yay that kind of helps
well wtf do i do now.. i guess i cant pivot into my new trib considering negative baron?
If I draw twos sure
I mean do you have twos
4
youll draw some
WE ARE BARON MIME
WE CARRY THE BUILD
WE FIGHT FOR THE XMULT
WE'LL NANEINF THIS GAME
Good morning balatbros
quintuple banana
yes
yeah I definitely want more purple seals game
baseball card should add legendaries to its effect when theyre present
@lunar zealot thots
No
They’re not uncommon
they're certainly less common than other jokers
Rares are less common than uncommon
Gg 🙏
true
but that would be lame and this would be cool
big diff
directors cut?
Finally triboulet has a niche
Nope
You don't have to pay attention to it
Or sell trib
lfg chat
Fkin threw the game. Build is enough to beat ante 8 :<
do i even want palette
Fourth soul of the day
Someone didn't read what boss it is
Lmao
Yea. Tunnel visioned man
wow
C+ is harder than C++ ngl
i was playing with dusk and i didnt pay attention to my hands and played a meaningless hand on my last play
Rip
Deserved
Lore accurate berdly
Very close
(He fucking sucks at video games)
is hallucination worth more than $5 a round
depends what kind of resources you're spending your 5 bucks on
if you're talking about chaos then it'll come down to your current econ and how often you reroll since it's your most expensive reroll
I decided to keep hallucination over to the Moon, Not that I really need the Tarot gen with this many purple seals
but I don't feel like there's anything useful in the shop for me, all I need to do is scale now
besides planet packs which I don't need to roll for
well a run like that doesn't have much to look for in shop outside of maybe vv
would've kept ttm in that case
I'll put my worthless opinion as someone who did C++ three damn times
Yes.
C++ isn't necessarily about the difficulty
It's the patience
i do that like all the time
Yeah C++ just takes time but C+ takes more skill
C+ makes you play through every single deck and every single Stake, that's the challenging part
my head is spinning what do I do?
What the hell kind of Deal with the devil did you do to get to this point?
I don't think that does anything
Sell a bp I suppose
More money
I need to oops and im all sixes
True
It's only really 1$ per card
started with a natural negative business card and later a showman ig xD
Lucky cards
Actually thats kind of alot
YEs thats what i mean
And if it's every card, he has alot of socks and buskins
How is it 1 dollar per card lmao wdym
hmmm
I mean odds jump from 4/15 to 8/15
Business Card
On average a lucky card is 1$ per card
1.3_
its more
oh whoops
1.6_ when at 1 or 0 interest
1.pi<
20/15
o
The value increases the more retriggers you have
Without retriggers or dice?
well yea
ye
And he has alot of retriggers
gold stake brain working in the wrong department again
its 8/15, each card is getting triggered 5 times
Gold Stake has become the brainrot of Balatro
if I buy
ox is coming up
4/15 x 6 triggers
wow
good thing you got rid of ttm 👅
Goodbye money
Actually
I guess you have 6 hands
You'll get through it with a couple of pairs I suppose
You have Grimbo
what do i take here, i was thinking wraith or ouji, or shuold i just take familiar
Ankh for the funny
does ankh even do anything with 6's
yes
It'll be polychrome
You'd have 2 polychromes
0a6 stacks
It'll help you pretty early
Each dice actually doubles the effects
So it'll be 4/15
Almost guaranteed +20 mult
the wheel will be a pain
hmm i might ankh then start tarotmaxxing
8/15 with a third dice
Score at least 10,000
glass breaks instantly too, nice for long term
16/15 with a 4th
Lots of pairs
oh no, I don't need the straights to score at all, it's actually detrimental because of blackboard
This obelisk gonna be yummy
I'm gonna KILL YOU!!!!!! RAHHH
ok this is just rigged

It's just wild how good my draws have been with runner this run
I took a look back at your deck yeah, you have two runners anyways
i was pairing it
Tuff
lol
idk the last time i got a pair level this high in 8 antes
How are you able to make gifs on the fly?
its more effort than i make it seem
I didn't think someone would go through that effort
im just fast
Yeah, I'm a video editor, I'd know lol
Not too much though, 5 second screen recording, throw it in, crop, export
Still, doing it in the middle of playing a game can be tedious
But then again, I do make clips like these
Talk about doing it on the fly, the game wasn't even done after I finished editing this
i think you hit it
barely lol
wtf
hell yea slay the spire mentioned
Both Balatro and Slay the Spire have fried my dopamine receptors
:3
i wish i could say the same, unfortunately tboi and picayune dreams did that to me
Trib is the only good hit here lmfao
Actually I retract my statement
The game will not let me scale groker
I keep forgetting he exists
groker...brother of the joker....
The foil on that Blackboard might explain it
I CANNOT wait for STS2, so sad it got pushed
I believe it's because they're also experiencing Development Heaven
They have too much ideas to release it immediately
They mentioned something about alternative Acts
Yeah I'm sure it will be all the better for it
I mean this is just the godseen, 3 good natural negatives and a perkeo (mega late though)
Spicing up the already great replayability even more
Yes early next year I believe 🤞
This might be the most gold stake build ever
yess so hype
couple of shady jokers in that roster
interesting
