lol
This is my first time here -eve
Why are we quoting stuff - eve
Not really in my experience
ceremonial dagger was a crazy take ngl
id apprieciate if we took such conversations into the appropriate servers and proceeded with balala discussion
I DID IT
sorry moderator
love you no hetero
BLACK DECK FINALLY
👍
Ok. Balatro is a card game. It's pretty fun and uhh photochad. And ummm uhhh number go up. And uhhhh ummm idk anymore
ayy 👏
I dont care too much if discussion gets a little off topic but yall wildin
can i ask what is taking you 14 hours to accomplish? i want to avoid it.
Sorry
have a discussion about obelisk while i'm asleep
its called I fell asleep with the game open
bye
avoid that
fair
I kinda forgot though
obelisk is awesome
thanks I dont wanna inflate my hours
lol
Bro hop off Balatro
BaLOTro
I logged on clash and I am tryna level up my cards this new system sucks
The grind never stops.
forgot to close balala
so glad i quit clash royale
New system?
Which is better? Baseball joker with 5 uncommons or 2 photos with 1 chad and glass
level 16
what is 14/13
its simple math
Hell nah.
Same, they ruined the game with evolutions
Someone in another server I'm in played the game that the server was based around for 100+ hours, so that could be why
Do you all think a new deck will be added before new years?
Anyway because a mod is here, is there a modmail system in this server or do I need to DM someone? -eve
1.5^5 or 2^4
took my max level 14 account and now everything is 1 or 2 levels underleveled
Doubt

I HATE OBELISK -pink
No whimsy?
No joy in your heart?
we need a joker that does the opposite of oops all 6s
Reduces the chance?

what an original idea
yes
no
take very niche joker and make a nicher version
I want the opposite of a microwave that makes my food colder on demand
Would go crazy with glass
exactly
0 in 4 chances of breaking
cryowave
i lost my glass build because all of them broke
meh debatable
no like 1 in 8 chance instead of 4
i like my glass jonkler
jlass goker
Jelly Joker
they should add the Woker to balatro
Peanut Butter Joker
Keyword being used to
Im sorry
1 in 4 chance to give polychrome to a random joker every time a boss blind is selected
we need a joker that has a 1 in 2 chance of heart cards giving 1.5x mult
"Im sorry" -pink, November 24th 2025
“Why so queerious?”
-The Woker
nah it should have a 1 in 9.5 chance of giving 0.44x mult
My aversion to the Bloodstone Joker stems from a convergence of mechanical, aesthetic, and experiential frustrations that, taken together render it one of the least gratifying elements of Balatro’s design space. At a conceptual level, the card aspires to embody volatility, rewarding the player for navigating a probabilistic landscape in which incremental, chance-based damage can theoretically accumulate into meaningful strategic leverage. However, in practice, Bloodstone exemplifies a design philosophy that mistakes stochastic tension for meaningful decisionmaking
Although Balatro often thrives on calculated risk, Bloodstone introduces a form of volatility that feels disproportionately disconnected from player agency. Its effect triggers on a per-chip basis yet remains so statistically inconsistent that it neither supports long-term planning nor offers the visceral satisfaction typical of high-variance tools. Instead of enabling a dynamic, interactive risk-reward loop, it frequently yields results that are either trivial or catastrophically underwhelming, compelling the player to devote scarce deck space to an asset that behaves more like a nuisance than a catalyst.
The card’s opportunity cost further deepens this resentment. Because Jokers are central to shaping run identity, selecting Bloodstone requires the player to forgo an alternative that could meaningfully reinforce synergy, scaling potential, or tactical flexibility. In return, one receives a mechanic whose contributions fluctuate so erratically that post-hoc rationalization replaces intentional strategy. The card does not empower; it destabilizes. It forces the player to tether their success to an unreliable damage drip that rarely justifies its
In short, my disdain for Bloodstone arises from its embodiment of unproductive randomness—an intrusion of noise masquerading as depth. It dilutes strategic clarity, consumes valuable Joker real estate, and undermines the player’s sense of deliberate progression.
not reading allat
Man and Woker
New copypasta just dropped
ai slop
don't taint my hatred of bloodstone with this
i hate Dear Nostalgists by TriAxis
wtf same
We like bloodstone -eve
:o
I hate Geometry Dash
:(
we do not.
This joker uses AI to describe why they hate bloodstone ^
You don't like having fire in your hole?
I hate Future Funk
anyone who doesnt like bloodstone is my opp
i’m sorry?
Rough Gem appreciator -pink
Did I stutter?
fire in the hole
i saw that
Damn same
i think i did.
huh what
"no i would prefer my girlfriend"
what is that?
cant believe the popular level skeletal shenanigans has the popular brainrot “fire in the hole” in it
where
i saw it
long ass level by johnathan gd based on clutterfunk i think???
by you
LocalThunk'ed
close
what's a future funk?
we need this conversation to be about balala again
literally the song name
I hate Swashbuckler
I love Balatro -pink
It's a funky future
The ever so pleasant and endearing egg:
it sucks
egg is good
i mean
not swash
swash sucks
dagger:
dagger is just swash if it was remotely usable
🥺
You're just projecting your hatred of swashbucklers because you've been swashbuckled by nefarious scallywags so hardly a fair assessment
damn how'd you know
You plounder the booty, or your booty gets ploundered
future funk iii when
People aren't cargo
never!!
I hate Butiti II
A what now
What joker do y'all think is the most evil
bloodstone
i hate the first ship part in Sidestep
showman he looks untrustworthy
My friend says Madness
He looks like a wonderful person to have tea with
nuh uh that's my favourite level D:
he poisoned it
Obelisk is evil
Don't judge a book by it's judge
I'd still drink it for him
i think daggers up there he's killing his comrades in cold blood like madness is at least insane so he probably somewhat doesn't understand
ig it could be argued that maybe its not "evil" in the same way fire isnt evil
dagger is an object
But the dagger is inanimate, it is you (the evil player) who chooses to murder the jerkers
Just like knives
okay wait
showman deserved to die anyway
gros michel is evil because it breaks when im relying on it in eg and is immortal when i pick it up for cavendish
Now that we were talking about showman I just got the best idea ever. Brb in 5 minutes
astronomer is fine
It's ok
free planets
Oh there's new people here
First time I don't see the same 5 people chatting here
theres always new people
Hellur
They don't appear often
I know there's always new people
Henlo
depends on the day I feel like early morning its pretty much the same group
Look at this sick joke that was just played on me
Glad you're enjoying the same gambling addiction we developed
You can sell it.
I built around face cards for like 8 rounds
I did sell it. Then I lost because all my jokers were face card related
That basically does nothing for the rest of your build
This is a rookie mistake that every Balatro players will make at some point
If you have Chad, an easy way to avoid it is add glass cards to numbered ranks
And then play your highest hand BUT with the glass card on front
That way, you're essentially playing Photochad but without a face card
You're gonna hate it in Gold Stake
I don't care about da Gold Stake boi
I have hardly ever played Plasma deck
I just need to unlock dat Orange Stake deck
gold stickered it and havent touched it since
Maybe, maybe not, but that's kind of the fun part of the game imo
I did that three times
Well, not one deck
I did C++ in three profiles
I regret it a little but I'm fuckin doing it again for the fourth time.
This time, EXTREMELY slowly cuz I don't wanna lose my mind for the 4th time
I still can't even beat Purple Stake on Ghost Deck boi
You'll learn, everyone does
You get better with time
It's all about the gamba
ive been slacking or I suck or both
I've been slacking on my 4th
I get it
It's extremely draining to some
Still on my 7th gold stake
ive been on the last 20 jokers for c++ for like 6 months
Honestly, I consider Balatro to be the game I play whenever
I just don't wanna do anything else
I havent been playing it all that much recently
Variety is healthy, try adding some to it
im not even trying to get photochad, but it ALWAYS find its way to me
The same game eventually, no matter how fun it is
pass on dagger </3
Will become boring
Had a run yesterday that gave it to me in 2 antes
I had to, maybe next time
I have completed Hades
Well
At least I completed the true ending
im on ante 2 lol
Hades ain't the only Roguelike, I recommend Dead Cells
Or Hollow Knight
Boi I have all the DLC mate
i didnt wven notice moderator in chat 😭
real
Fool, I've already beaten both the Radiance and Lost Lace
are we really getting horned up again
not me!!
Those aren't the only games, explore some
Uh what now?
I have a suggestion that I think is EXTREMELY underrated
megaboink
Beyond Citadel is an overlooked boomer shooter
It has only 1k reviews but it's all overwhelmingly positive
It's Doom but you're an anime girl.
It's really fun
I am simply a PRO GAMER GIRL
So just DOOM
Aaaaand I'm still trying to beat Eigong in Nine Sols
What are we fighting, the sun?
Pretty much, it actually has unique stuff
You can have power armors
That boss is a pain in the ass lol
The reloading is surprisingly unique
PARRY PARRY PARRY PARRY PARRY (5 stack talisman) PARRY PARRY PARRY PARRY PARRY
Oh and try playing Cyberpunk 2077 like you're playing Ultrakill
Never felt that unstoppable before
It's not for everyone
Why are you unable to play the game?
I'm surprised you're not crucifying us for being off topic
As if I can even play Cyberpunk lol
Doom on steroids isn't for everyone
It's ok, not everyone likes seizure inducing visuals
If you can at least, it's REALLY really fun playing like a fucking Cyberpsycho
That's not even the issue
It's fast
I mean you guys should probably go into off topic but if its a joint discussion between everyone I could care less
Too fast
I hate Baron
this is one of the most active chats
Maybe when I have something I can actually play it lol
That's based.
I'll try sharing a montage that makes it's combat look like Ultrakill
I have 2 ex boyfriends who were super into it and it kinda killed the vibe
Especially when you pair Burnt Joker with either Blueprint or Brainstorm
Ultrakill fans do be annoying
Oof I would feel awkward playing the game too if I was you lol
Oh yeh @hot leaf if you love Balatro, you MIGHT like Slay the Spire
I did play it lol
It has the same addicting nature as Balatro
Well, I expected that actually lmao
I am more into pvp shooters anyway its not a major loss
Boi I've played almost every major indie game
I need a pvp shooter with ultrakill mechanics
Tf2?
TF2 is probably one you'd enjoy
That exists.
POOTIS
It's called Titanfall 2
not gonna lie to you guys I dont like TF2
Fair enough
Awww 😔
It's Ultrakill but you get to pilot gigantic robots
The OTHER Titanfall 2
I love both though
that means you care a lot
Every lobby is either a sweatfest and unplayable cause I havent really played it or everyone is messing around and its super boring
"The sky belongs to me... Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide."
Viper is such a cool boss
Finally, a mod that doesn't go like "erm guys you're being off topic"
No one talks to the other channels anyways
For you specifically you have to go into off topic you can only talk about balala here
Lol
But at some point, we should go back
I'll go back to Balatro so I'll enjoy this moment for a bit
Yeah I really only play comp lobbies or uncle topia. I don't touch casual with a 10 foot pole (unless it's 2fort or badwater)
Shortcut with Smeared Joker
It's a challengingly strong hand
I mean if I decide to banish all of you to off topic the discussion just dies
Flush four
why do that
Question, thoughts on Cyberpunk?
How about some Flush House
Flush six!
@signal frigate are the games bought from GoG region locked
great game I played through the whole game and DLC on my steamdeck
Cuz I can't buy MGR on Steam lol
I was gonna joke about how surprising it is that a trans person doesn't like Ultrakill
(The joke is the community is full of trans peeps)
But holy shit, I like you for liking Cyberpunk.
Hihiihihihihi
so ive heard
I am not surprised.
What about silksong?
I love Hollow Knight
Shaw 🗣️
Never played hollow knight or silksong
Haven't played Skong yet
I have beaten Minos Prime
If you're into soulslike meets platformer, I recommend it
Love both, absolute peak Metroidvanias
I P ranked him
How about a filled knight
It's way harder than the original, but the combat is so much more responsive and alive
488 on the wee, its much better to just go chips only on plasma if you get a chips scaling early
I liked Celeste but I never beat it
Oh, and here's the Cyberpunk montage I was talking about
Only in Violent though
Oh
That actually got sent
Wah
Anyways, yeah here's Cyberpunk, Ultrakill edition
:O I was playing Celeste like less than a day ago
Phantom Liberty combat hits so goddamn hard
I had a self imposed challenge to 100% every level before I can progress and I got stuck on one of the late game B sides
Full mobility build mix with Crit damage is so much fun in Cyberpunk lol
I tried that too, almost had a complete mental break.
After that I just decided to play the game normally and have fun
I could never enjoy Celeste but I respect it as a game
It was like 3 levels after the hotel I think thats later in the game
thats where I got stuck
Shit, I miss Cyberpunk.
Its the iconic tgirl platformer what can I say I was born to like it
I gave up 100%ing at Mr. Oshiro's hotel, because of that one retro mini game that took me like 2 hours to complete
I already know your main in Guilty Gear.
So, you convinced yet?
Now you just need Chad and you'll be chilling
I played guilty gear for like an hour for my entire time ever playing it and I played some girl with an anchor
I was already planning to buy Cyberpunk when I get something that can actually run it
Hey, that's my main, her name is May
I dont like fighting games mostly because I am super shit at them
Also, Bridgette is perfect for you
She's trans
600 dollars is the most reasonable option
It's ggs
600 is literally the highest price point it would be okay to buy at the specs btw
Based because same.
I dont like most games because im slow
I looked it up I remember playing that character too
I like gmod and dwarf fortresss
Prison Architect
Ahahahahaahahaha
Dwarf Fortress?
I liked anchor girl cause wave dash (literally)
That too
Also, I use Gmod for funni clips
Arcsys can suck Mario's PINGAS
Totsugeki.
Remember, all May players share the same braincell
I'm one of them
Totsugeki moment
Ain't no way hg wishlisted GG after me mentioning it
TOTSUGEKI
I stopped playing because it was so hard to do the combos on my keyboard and also I only played cause my girlfriend wanted me too
I've had it for a while now, but the BLAZING EDITION is just too expensive
I could share the TF2 clip dump where I use Gmod for funni ragdoll bits
Even on Black Friday
Looks like Nirvana's Nevermind album cover
The only Fighting game I can actually be good in is Yomi Hustle
I was playing with some friends on poolrooms
ive already had a geometry dash era I dont need to speedrun carpel tunnel by playing fighting games
I think ny game is haunted by the by
Localthunk, you need to understand that I can NOT buy this on round 1, so please don't give me the option 😭
Haunted by?
play yellow deck ez
Gang.
My TF2 clipdump
How about some TIDAL WAVE
He's instructing you to buy that planet
I beated black deck AGAIN
Balloons and a vantablack figure
BAM BA BIDI BUH BAM BIDID BEUH
All the funni trans games and no Ultrakill
Sell your kidneys for econ duh
BAM BA BIDI BEUH BUM BADA BADABAMBA
My hardest level will always be deadlocked cause any level after 2.0 is completely unplayable for me
I dont like ultrakill
Mine is a level called "Moment"
I had that phase too
Smh haven't beaten Bloodbath
Too crackheaded
This is an extreme demon btw, easier than Bloodbath I think
I got 60 something percent on 8o kinda proud of that
Hey, check out a level called "Moment" and give me your thoughts
Ever heard of Change Of Scene
Same I had to take huge breaks in between levels like "Ispywithmylittleeye", cause my head felt like it was gonna explode
Visually stunning
Sorry i sound like a hater
Nah it's not for everyone
You're right
That game isn't meant for humans
Am I human?
In my opinion geometry dash levels become more about being visually stunning than having good gameplay
So like every triple a game
No I'm not human mentioned?
No
😔
yea but at least when I log onto clair obscur or something I can actually see wtf I am looking at
It's both
add chess to baatro
The demon list still exists
Baatman
TIL that skipping a blind will still give you the same shop if the ante is the same (I used the same seed)
Even rdr2 even though I hate to admit
I hop on GD and check out a modern level and I find a 4 star levels harder than old demons just because my stigmatism starts crying for help
Clair is pretending to be a triple A game but has the price of an indie game
I love it.
This shit is still cheaper than GGST Blazing Edition lol
modern geometry dash levels are a competition to see who can burn the player's eyes the fastest
My vote is Silksong but Clair absolutely deserves Goty
Its actually the best game I have played in the last decade I love it so much
The moment portal 2 released was the moment triple a gaming died
It's honestly crazy how it's cheaper than most TRIPLE A games
I don't think my laptop can run Clair, definitely gonna play it someday
At least in the gameplay aspect
Would you like some Mario Kart for 80 dollars
Wdym portal 2 was absolute peak
I know
How about some VIRTUAL BOY FOR 100 DOLLARS
its crazy how they saw everyone was raising their prices on games and they said NAH and lowered their game to like 45 dollars
That game is actually good tho, the price isn't
Wait so how did triple A die then?
But the new Mario Kart is fun
Because portal 2 was rhe last good triple a game
cause we on quadruple a games now
Didn't Nintendo basically force people to go through intermissions during online play doe
Oh god don't remind me lmao
For $80 you'd expect to be able to play the game how you wanted to
Instead of the normal 3 lap race
No
They fucked it up
yea
I love Silksong
They had it right, what did they do?
Nintendo really hates giving players the ability to play however they want lol
Random used to gurantee you get to play on just that track without the boring intermissions then they made you have to play the intermissions anyway and yeah I quit the game so fast
One thing I wanna say about Clair and Goty, Shroud saying that Clair shouldn't even be nominated
They screwed up the races themselves, with the driving straight simulator being forced, & they removed splits form time trials. There are no times for lap 1, 2 & 3. It’s just a single time at the end
If it wasnt for tomodatchi life 2 and something else idr I would sell my switch 2
MGS V, Elden Ring, Bloodborne, Baldur's Gate III, Dark Souls III, Sekiro, Resident evil village, Red Dead Redemption 2:
Okay shroud has bad takes
That game was ALMOST good
You know the game he wants to win Goty?
Nintendo just hates giving people the ability to play however they want
They still apparently have the rotating gamemodes for Splatoon 3 ranked mode
Arc Raiders
idk but if goty is some shit like astrobot again imma crash out
isnt this one just easy??
It's Arc Raiders
Rdr2 has half baked mechanics and I haven't played the others
is it bad I havent heard of that game
Yk the funniest part?
purr
It wasn't even nominated
:3
:3
I've seen Hololive members play it lol
Purre vessel
It's good actually, it's an extraction game
If clair obscur somehow doesnt win goty its 100% rigged
genuinely dont think ive heard anyone say something negative about rdr2 😭
You fight eldritch abominations while harvesting fuckin dandelions
The honor system, the conversation system, gun mechanics, cores
If that game does win, it’s rigged against the underrated games that have been in development for 10+ years
Nah I believe the 6 games nominated are STACKED as fuck, I wouldn't be disappointed whichever wins
All are pretty underdeveloped
But yeah, Clair probably blows all 5 out of the water
It's genuinely a beautiful game
Maybe except for DK Bonanza just because I don't wanna see Nintendo win lol
hold on lemme check the nominees
That game is fun tho
Yes they make great games but fuck the company lol
Hades 2 too
I am still salty about astrobot last year lol
dk bananza is genuinely kinda fire just overpriced
B-But silksong🥺
DK Bonanza getting PAID DLC only a month later
My vote is Silksong, dw
balatro shouldve won frr
:D
And it's the same price as Silksong
That's what I keep saying lol
My vote for game of the year is Blue Prince
Been in development for 8 years & it shows
It should probably win since it's THE most anticipated game in 7 years and delivered more than what was hyped
have any indie games won goty
Balatro got nominated
Hades almost won that one year
i know that brah
Baldur's Gate 3?
i didnt say nominated
That's a double A game
thats indie?!
I never liked Hades really so I dont really have an opinion on Hades 2
oh
That ain't indie
Technically so it Clair Obscure
i love hades it has hot boys
Clair Obscure is a AA game
It pretty much is
Silksong was highly anticipated and I know its like the best thing ever to those who fw metriodvania
Indie just means small team and budget at this point, baldurs gate is not
yea but im gay
It's extremely fun and the Story is really intriguing
I'm like 80 20 bi
The whole reason why I like Greek mythology :D
Clair Obscure is technically not indie either
okay chat what is kingdom come deliverence
i might get hades now
okay which is which
It absolutely deserved a nomination, and it's crazy how they fucking DOUBLED what was already a pretty big game that was Hollow Knight
straight-gay
I have no stake in that one way or the other
And the fact that the devs went on a "Development Heaven"
vv strikes again
this might be the only time that i would like bloodstone without oops
They had actual passion making Silksong
no xmult 😭
The 20's only because of femboys and twinks
I agree I might personally not be interested but I can aknowledge its a great game
:3
obviously a chips build brah
🧐
Oh good was gonna say
femboys are awesome (not biased)
That'd be stupid as fuck if it didn't
Even if it's not for you, I HIGHLY recommend you try it out, it doesn't cost as much as an average McDonald's order
Development heaven
based
do yall think megabonk wouldve won if ved didnt withdraw
Oh you can say that word
I wouldn't go out as far to call myself a femboy, but I ain't the most masculine guy either, and femboys are cool (biased)
femboys?
It would've gotten a nominee
I just really dont like any metriodvania ive played in the past
why wouldnt i be able to say femboys
Yeah, some servers don't allow it
This one encourages player pacing and exploration so I think it's still worth it
well ueah. it did get nominated for best debut indie, but dani withdrew because uts not his debut
don’t do it
thats stupid
It was going so well
That is why I'm surprised, anyways yeah femboys are cool but I like Tomboys more
Goodnight chat
This server is too based for that tomfoolery
it does have pretty tough competetion with dispatch
fair
I watched my girlfriend play megabonk and im sorry that shit just looks like brainrot risk of rain
megabomk is ass
sorry but like
Because it is and it's glorious.
its literally vampire survivors ror2
it’s just pure brain rot
so yes
It's risk of rain meets vampire survivors
thats fine
if uou dont like it
idc
i find it fun
Megabonk looks so dumb I will not try it even if I was paid to play it
it wasn’t about me
It's so absurdly insane that it goes full circle to being fun
teue
Im upset I even bought it for her I didnt know what it was beforehand
It takes the insanity of those kinds of games and cranks it to 11, yeah I'm not surprised it won't be for everyone
i have some less than nice words about the survivors genre as a whole but ill keep them to myself
play nova drift it aint a survivors game but it is peak
It's okay, spit it because I think it's getting exhausting seeing them.
alright ill try silksong just cause I dont have to pay for it
Speak your words king
whatever they are ive probably heard it
Even if you don't end up liking it, I wish you enjoy it
i know vs and megabonk are slop but i’ll eat that slop from time to time
Metroidvanias are just boring games imo
i hate the fact those games rely on stat upgrade meta progression and that the gameplay devolves into just walking around while auto attacking. i dont see the fun in that
Some of them are
its not like castlevania boring im sure but
That's it.
That's the problem with them
You just walk around
i love a lot of metroidvanias but theyre not for everyone
its honestly more strategy than anything
you just gotta decide whats gonna do well and get lucky
I used to not even really like roguelikes
It's not strategy because it's built like a roguelike
the strategy’s more in depth
Roguelike throws strategy out of the window
roguelikes can be strategy games tho
But Slay the Spire, Peglin, and Balatro obviously have changed my perspective on roguelikes
what??
I don't like rouge likes, but I love balatro
unlike balatro the gameplay has not much active skill in it
I know but you know what I'm talking about
you literally play balatro
It approaches strategy in a different way
hence why I am willing to give silksong a chance
i dont actually
for sure it does
Yeah imagine playing a rouge like, who would even do such a thing?
Maybe I'm just spouting bullshit but what I mean is, the strategy for Survivors genre is taking whatever you have and making the most out of it, but it does it completely wrong because all of it feels the same, just the numbers are higher
Balatro university getting completionist++ without losing proves to me balatro is a skill based game and not luck
roguelikes and metroidvanias are some of my favourite genres ngl
yeah idk what ur talking about tbh
even if roguelikes recently took a backseat for me
There is no "playstyle"
What about souls likes?
My favorites are shooters and rpgs
in balatro you make do with what u get
the souls games? never tried them
Mostly jrpgs
i love anaglyph for fun
Yeah but each build is unique and different, Vampire survivors feel the same
I miss when jrpgs werent all gooner games
That's what I mean
I love soulslike games, I like The Surge the most
im pretty sure the only jrpg ive played is miitopia 😭
i mean gameplay wise they become the same
currently on my metroidvania kick in a streak of skong, crypt custodian and currently nine sols
because the weapons auto attack
I play The World Ends With You
You're so real for that
This isn't necessarily Metroid but I think it's worth checking Rainworld out
I have yet to touch miitopia
Which boss could realistically pose a threat to this build? I'm playing 5oak with 5s (I used a spectral card and now I have 12 5s in my deck)
ive reset the game multiple times to do challenge runs
If you like Metroidvanias I think you might enjoy souls likes too! You can start with Dark Souls I if you're more into exploration or Dark Souls III if you're more into bosses
i did and its not really for me
these runs are not fun but i enjoy the process anyway
the ox
It kind of plays like a Metroid but the skill is how much you know about the game so I get that
There's no upgrades
Just your big brain
i also really like making characters in miitopia
I haven't played that one
The money killer?
the makeup system is easy to grasp and works well a lot of the time
So it's between WuWa and funni horse game
Any tips for playing challenges in balatro?
Me when the ox eats my bull
It's still a Crime that Bloodborne has no PC port yet
mostplayedhand killer
i should replay the mega man x games sometime (and actually play x7 and 8 as experiences)
You can emulate it for free
Yeah but it's still sad
That we have to resort to that
Eh, that's fine, my setup is strong rn
what challenge are you struggling on
⛓️💥
It only took 5000+ hours to break the chains
I feel the same about Rainbow Six Siege, games like these get really toxic real fast
Oh I just started the challenges I was just wondering if there's any trick for em
holy shot
i dont like multiplayer shooter games not even gonna lie
OMG YESS
nothing wrong with them
My whole account progress got deleted all my skins everything
i just dont likethem
well if you do get ox u need a second best hand to get u through
Common Ubisoft L
The only one I really like is fortnite
I mean every challenge has different rules/ restrictions but a general tip ig Is have econ
I had 8 black ices and 5 elite skins and they all got disappeared
And Fatal Bullet if that counts
My friend bought siege and lost his account not even a week later lmao
for me fortnite was fun for a while when i played it with my brother and some old friends
What's econ?
the only multiplayer shooter i ever got into was garden warfare 2 and uhh that game is not exactly good right now (fuck the half assed ea anti cheat)
oh yeah gw2 was pretty fun
It was so weird though because when I went into the character customizer for like Ash for example all my skins were equipped but if I tried to swap them they would disappear
economy
p much just have money by getting up to interest
FUCK UBISOFT
I also really dont like that they cancelled xdefiant
that game was fire
Garden Warfare was the shit back in my day (I sound like a 60 year old monk rn)
i wish ea didnt fumble bfn that game couldve been so good
I got ox haha, and it thinks flush is my most played hand (tied with 5oak, so I barely scraped through)
rest in piss my clearence level 181 account
lol
help.
Sell Ancient for brainstorm
for a broke gal like me the Ox is a nothing burger boss blind
It's just better
I think ox works that if you have 2 hands with the same amount played the weaker hand gets chosen
ie if pair and hc was your most played hand ox would pick hc
I seeee
I love going into the Ox while in debt and coming out if it debt free
ill do it but it hurts.
What is this run lmao 🤣
You don't need to if you don't want to
ive never done that cuz i dont go in debt usually
that late into the run
rentals are the main cause of it
oh nope just random lol
very fair
I mean its only happened to me twice but it was very satisfying both times
i know, we all hate him, but i need it incase i dont have luck with ancient+ i have a sun
Oh yeah that's actually the best play tbh
ull get a better joker (i hope)
what the fuck.
cut your deck down and build for the joker you have 2 copies of instead of a joker thats practically a worse version of it
okay yeah uhm
wrong screenshot,
cavendish or bloodstone gotta go
MOREE
ope
murder bloodshit
NOW
BRUH
you sold ancien???????
I fucking hate golden needle bro oh my god
Today we are throwing
This challenge is dogshit
im sowy
Oh it's white stake nvm
I've beat all the others without much fanfare but this is genuinely dogshit
Worst fucking designed challenge by a mile
yeah its just for fun
golden needle was easier for me than cruelty
Cruelty imo was the hardest challenge
Cruelty is fuckin easy
This whole run depends on misprint 😭
I have no chips or +mult
Imma play golden needle for fun
No it depends on if you draw a 4oak lol
Dogshit challenge
i dont know how to deckfix playing ancient tho
You don't
Just destroy cards
I'm drawing 5oaks haha
Cut evenly
individual who bares the name hand levels
fair
why
4oak is better tha 5oak
reason:
4oak: cool and awesome
5oak: dumb and ugky
x24
but 4oak > 5oak for consistency
bp is x4
Hmm?
get planet x
I have 12 5s in my deck
perfect amount for 4oaks
fuck i shouldnt have sold ancient
you dont say…
5 of a kind happens so often
huh
atleast to me
Golden needle is like 2 challenges in 1
I gave up
Most dogshit thing in this game by far holy shit
bruh
How did this get through playtesting
which is..?
It's awful
WHAT
Golden needle
the entire time we said to sell blood
NAWWWW, I got the flush one too
holy hand
ohh, english not my first language
Technically 4oaks > 5oaks for two main reasons
5oaks are harder to draw but only have +5chips over 4oak
unlocking secret planets decreases your chances of getting the one planet you want in packs and the shop
usually flush 5 is the go to for a really big hand as it has the best scaling in the game number wise.
yh ik
Absolute fucking horse shit and they didn't even bother disabling blinds like the water so if you roll that one you're just fucked
ew
Horrible fucking challenge design
not to mention 5oaks scaling is a whopping 5 extra chips
i did mention
i think thats the point
that
Most of the others are actually pretty fun but this is just awful
Double ante 2 holo ancients are op
i didnt see opps
lol
Cruelty and jokerless work better as super hard for the sake of it
anywya
This is just bullshit rng
another downside to 5oak is that uou have to unlock it meaning you wont be able to level it up as soon as you can level up 4oak
although it linda makes up for that bu starting higher
just lost to the water
it happens
okay that was fun I am good for now
insane
Golden needle having 6 discards makes it not that bad
Forcing myself not to play Flush in Checkered deck might've contributed to my unnecessary Orange Stake losses
but your deck gets bigger
you're playing on the flush deck play flushes
Well, not my fault it keeps giving me pairs
Using them consumes your econ
yeah but thats why you start with credit card
I think I beat golden needle with vagabond
might be why I dont hate it lol
Yeah and then you're perpetually in the negative unless you get an econ joker
Imma actually redo Golden Needle
It's rng hell
Jolly Joker, Sly Joker, Steel Joker, Gros Michel, Gift Card, Smiley Face, Sock and Buskin, Throwback, Rough Gem, The Order, The Tribe, Chicot, Perkeo.```
so close now
No its a skill issue on ur part
gimme seed ill beat it on GN
nice one balatro
B)

Your parents don't love you
golden needke(
Lol cope
Nah I got good parents
Lets not instigate
ANYWAY, there's guides on youtube for golden needle so maybe check there because crying over it on discord isnt gonna help
It makes me feel better inbetween the flagellation sessions
way to not instigate
right
Just stop bickering thats all I ask
Chipper if you want advice please share your screenshots we are willing to give on demand advice
