[vale wharf]

I mean like, which cards do you have?

[lunar zealot]

tell me what exactly is wrong with this screenshot

[white zodiac]

dogshit to dogshit with a bigger number to dogshit

[tame cobalt]

Yes cowshit is worse

[serene forge]

not enough econ and you dont have blueprint yet i dunno how i feel about that

[serene forge]

fuck you

[ornate orchid]

It will be soon

[vale wharf]

Kings

[grizzled yew]

I was not expecting to see that

[atomic trout]

Woah there

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[buoyant fog]

seems pretty optimal to me ngl

[floral mural]

you have 164 dollars and still use bloodstone here

[manic zealot]

thanks we get it

[ornate orchid]

Printing red seal gold card rn

[white zodiac]

do you notice something wrong in this image

[grizzled yew]

How does one get this many kings

[tame cobalt]

Bros in it for the love of the game

[atomic trout]

Hate is strong. Just dont buy it, lol

[vale wharf]

My dad said the Balatro soundtrack sounds like "dodgy casino music"

[white zodiac]

alternatively

[tame cobalt]

Gee I wonder why

[grizzled yew]

Yes, but

[serene forge]

every bloodstone appearance in shop is 1 less possibility of a good jonkler

[manic zealot]

lore accurate balatro

[atomic trout]

A soundtrack that never gets old. It's impressive to listen to for 150 hours

[buoyant fog]

Well its obviously BP placement right? or are you making a joke about the duped bloodstone?

[serene forge]

yknow i'd like bloodstone if it said every time it failed to trigger

[grizzled yew]

Imagine balatro but the environment is like buckshot roulette

[serene forge]

then i can at least laugh a little

[white zodiac]

you really don’t see the issue behind this image

[tame cobalt]

I think all rng procs should do that tbh

[serene forge]

when i inevitably die because of this shitass joker

[manic zealot]

ok why does that actually sound fire

[buoyant fog]

idk man stop being weird and vague

is it the score?

[tame cobalt]

No feedback from my business card when it doesn't proc feels weird

[vale wharf]

It got old for him real fast, because I put a 10 hour loop of it on the family TV

[serene forge]

2 bloodstones with double hack scored 100k only

[buoyant fog]

I swear bro some of you c++ers are so condescending

[serene forge]

bloodstone fucking sucks

lol

[manic zealot]

LMAO

[floral mural]

speculative hack seems funny with 9 5s but the answer is just a buffoon pack

[buoyant fog]

stop talking to me

[vale wharf]

The house always wins 🗣️🔥🔥

[atomic trout]

Bloodstone is tricky.

[tame cobalt]

You right

[ornate orchid]

Be a good monarch

[lunar zealot]

i will send this image again
What is wrong with this image

[serene forge]

LMAO

[atomic trout]

Bloodstones.

[acoustic kettle]

I know interest but i can never resist round 1 buffoon

[atomic trout]

Does Blueprint copy Bloodstones?

[white zodiac]

hurt? call the cops

[buoyant fog]

Its not always about one shotting the blind tho, like I said its not a great joker

[neat ore]

I made some hardtack

[lunar zealot]

it's expected to one shot blinds

[atomic trout]

I know Blueprint copies Spaceman

[lunar zealot]

it's on-scored xmult

[white zodiac]

you literally said it was decent

[lunar zealot]

if on-scored xmult doesn't one shot blinds then that's its fault

[buoyant fog]

Exactly, decent is not great

[white zodiac]

that’s not what that word means

[buoyant fog]

a decent joker wins the blind in a couple of hands

[white zodiac]

[lunar zealot]

bloodstone is not expected to win any blinds in more than 1 hand

[acoustic kettle]

Bl**dstone

[grizzled yew]

[tame cobalt]

i will agree that it's mid

[white zodiac]

they’ve played a heart flush with optimal copies and didn’t one shot the blind given its expected score value

[grizzled yew]

Blood stone sounds good

[serene forge]

bloodstone is not expected to win any blinds in more than 1 hand because it's not expected to win anything to begin with

[manic zealot]

bloodstone is better to use for support if possible

[lunar zealot]

it's really not

[vale wharf]

Can we all agree that fragile is the easiest challenge?

[atomic trout]

Bloodstone makes you feel like your on life support

[tame cobalt]

It's average value is good but the drawback is that it's inconsistent which is what makes it mid

[wintry ice]

is tony ragebaiting again

[buoyant fog]

not this time

[atomic trout]

Yes. Skip skip skip.

[clear mulch]

yes

[lunar zealot]

tricky tony

[white zodiac]

bloodstone will kill you if your first hand doesn’t score in the blinds that 5 card hands die to

[vale wharf]

I didn't even think of that lol

[lunar zealot]

eye

needle

vessel

[white zodiac]

just another tony monday

[wintry ice]

well it failed to do it's job with a very good scenario for it

[lunar zealot]

water

[atomic trout]

Did you face the Violet Vessel?

[buoyant fog]

what

[wintry ice]

doesn't seem decent to me

[buoyant fog]

the wording here is confusing

[lunar zealot]

Head lol

[vale wharf]

Vglb!

[atomic trout]

How did you win?

[clear mulch]

ya ya vfglb!!!

[vale wharf]

Photochad

[serene forge]

bloodstone sucks

[clear mulch]

dont talk to me

[buoyant fog]

well the real question is did Kami win the run?

[white zodiac]

i was being very clear with my wording what

[grizzled yew]

It just needed more blood

[vale wharf]

What 😨
Why 😭

[lunar zealot]

I wish i didn't

[buoyant fog]

SO YOU WON THE RUN?

[white zodiac]

not the implication of the message

[buoyant fog]

Then why are you complaining 😭 😭 😭

[lunar zealot]

the only reason i did is because of my own skill

[lunar zealot]

Thought terminating cliche

[acoustic kettle]

Still 30 bloodstone chance only getting 100k

[wintry ice]

because she had 2 copies of the joker and 2 retriggers and it failed to 1 shot

besides

[white zodiac]

is this an ad hominem attack

[serene forge]

bloodstone worst joker

[wintry ice]

it's close to it's optimal scenario

[white zodiac]

oh

[manic zealot]

can you chill out?

[wintry ice]

it's not something that eill always happen

[buoyant fog]

But isnt the objective just to win and work around the jokers you got?

[grizzled yew]

I’m sorry for what I’ve started

[buoyant fog]

like even if its not one shotting the blinds, its still an okay joker

[serene forge]

yeah the winning line would be not taking bloodstone because it sux

[manic zealot]

you're fine, nw

[atomic trout]

But it's Polychormed

[tame cobalt]

This started long before you son

[white zodiac]

bottom 10*

[wintry ice]

are you going to act like you typically get invis, hack and blueprint in the same run?

[buoyant fog]

I'm curious to know your bottom 10 list

[acoustic kettle]

Baron idol bloodstone seance

[tame cobalt]

Yeah I'm built different

[serene forge]

wdym i always get blueprint brainstorm baron mime perkeo by ante 2 in my runs

[lunar zealot]

Bloodstone's only redeeming quality is x1.5 mult from baseball card

[wintry ice]

the fact is that bloodstone is a terrible joker to work around due to it being inconsistent by design

[clear mulch]

its a debuff to uncommon tag

[tame cobalt]

Genuinely I took seance just for bb card value on my most recent winning gs run

[lunar zealot]

say bbc.

say it.

[tame cobalt]

No

[lunar zealot]

Say its name

[floral mural]

whats the answer here everyone

[white zodiac]

showman
seance
idol
zany
wily
bloodstone
baron
throwback

[serene forge]

beebeesee

[floral mural]

its definitely not bloodstone

[serene forge]

bloodstone

[white zodiac]

9 and 10 is up in the air

[manic zealot]

the not eternal

[grizzled yew]

Bloodstone

[tame cobalt]

Big bla-

[clear mulch]

chips vs rental abhorrency

[acoustic kettle]

Blue joker

[wintry ice]

blue imo

[lunar zealot]

real question

are you reading the things we're saying here

[buoyant fog]

Throwback is definitely not in my bottom 10, but its a solid list

[wintry ice]

even if it's eternal

[grizzled yew]

Yeah

[wintry ice]

chips are chips

[tame cobalt]

He is and you're falling for it

[lunar zealot]

we've given empirical and anecdotal and even statistical evidence on bloodstone's failure to live up to expectations

[serene forge]

I hate Photograph

[wintry ice]

there isn't a situation where it'll be higher than a polychrome

[white zodiac]

everyone else here reprimanding your opinion is a huge red flag on your end

[acoustic kettle]

Easiest eay to ragebait

[grizzled yew]

I didn’t expect anything

[lunar zealot]

not my point

[clear mulch]

also its rental??? hello????

[buoyant fog]

I mean I've gotten it to 4x before LMAO

[white zodiac]

source

[serene forge]

there is a fucking roach on my wall why would you do this to me tony

[buoyant fog]

You are the outliers here

[lunar zealot]

that's like

[wintry ice]

that's usually more detrimental

[tame cobalt]

Throwback would be kinda good if it was from spending tags in general

[buoyant fog]

most people play the game to have fun

[white zodiac]

that's tony

[buoyant fog]

not to get C++

[lunar zealot]

12 rounds skipped

[wintry ice]

you don't want to be skipping that much

[serene forge]

oh true

[lunar zealot]

[white zodiac]

fun isnt the discussion at hand, this is a consistency discussion

[wintry ice]

it's like they changed the topic because they were losing

[white zodiac]

roaches don't die you gotta flame torch tony

[clear mulch]

let people have fun, meow

[lunar zealot]

sad i dont have painkille

[lunar zealot]

WOAH

WOAH

YOU CANT SAY THAT HERE

[atomic trout]

Seance, Hack, the four chip jokers

[tame cobalt]

If I'm just going for the win and I have decent scoring already that doesn't rely on playing hands I'll take throwback and just blitz to ante 8

[lunar zealot]

I MEAN YOU'RE RIGHT BUT WOAH

WOAHHHHH

[manic zealot]

hack??

[serene forge]

isnt that a fucking slur

[lunar zealot]

WOAHHHHHHHHH

[lunar zealot]

I take no offense to it

[grizzled yew]

What does dyke mean

[lunar zealot]

my girlfriend calls me the f slur all the time

[white zodiac]

two of the four hand specific chip jokers are decent (if that's what you're referring to)

[serene forge]

so it is one

😭

[lunar zealot]

but like you can't say it here

[white zodiac]

freddyfazbear

[wintry ice]

wh

[atomic trout]

It is good on Plasma and early Antes, after that they are gone, buuuut I like the stickers, they stay.

[lunar zealot]

it's our love language 🥰

[clear mulch]

wait i didnt know i was using my ult on an actual target

[atomic trout]

Gold Stickers look nice

[white zodiac]

im speaking in general

as a streak boy

[wintry ice]

knowing you i'm not surprised

[atomic trout]

In general, they are kinda bottom Jokers

[lunar zealot]

The hell is that supposed to mean vic

[acoustic kettle]

[serene forge]

aim it at tony

[clear mulch]

the tricky one?

[tame cobalt]

Generally even if you're part of the group that is okay to say it you still shouldn't on public servers

[white zodiac]

two of them are unironically decent to have

[clear mulch]

meow

[nova junco]

Brainstorm what did you do today wtf😭

[wintry ice]

you know exactly what

[nova junco]

I joined and found complete chaos

[atomic trout]

We have different play styles, what's your opinion then?

[grizzled yew]

What does dyke mean

[serene forge]

brick

[grave magnet]

hey so i have a x5.4 obelisk and i'm fighting the plant right now.

[tame cobalt]

Bro

Bro

Come on now

[clear mulch]

wgats that

[serene forge]

here win

[grizzled yew]

Idk

[clear mulch]

yeah me neither

[grave magnet]

my only good hand righht now is a flush

[atomic trout]

Flush is good, keep flushing.

[tame cobalt]

Bro saw it get deleted and was like lemme repeat it

[wintry ice]

hack and not showman, baron or idol?

what is the logic here

[white zodiac]

chips are more valuable for smaller/more spammable hands for their respective planet scaling and the jokers that compliment those chip jokers, them being hand scaling mult or any mult pretty much

[serene forge]

I love Square Joker

[atomic trout]

And on Plasma deck they are a godsend

[tame cobalt]

Squoker

Squimbo

[grizzled yew]

According to Oxford languages a lesbian

[nova junco]

Squimbo

[white zodiac]

they serve a purpose in streak runs, are not dead weight as eternals

[nova junco]

Hive mind moment

[white zodiac]

im not talking about plasma

[grave magnet]

will i lose my 5.4x mult for playing what is basically one of my top 3 played hands?

[atomic trout]

I cant' take them Eternally, lol

[white zodiac]

I will

[tame cobalt]

No, balatrocord is just predictable :p

[obsidian patrol]

Balatro fans when you tell them you need chips on other decks than plasma

[clear mulch]

a whaaaaat never heard of that

[wintry ice]

breaking ties does reset obelisk

[atomic trout]

You have to be locked on, I know I mentioned Decks and chips are nice. But they are stagnant

[white zodiac]

to save a streak run youll need those evaluations to roll into mind and they're not bottom 10 in the sense that I'll take them to keep a run alive

[obsidian patrol]

The jokers you take to survive early on do not need to be relevant in the end

[tame cobalt]

Ice cream shoulda been a nacho joker

[atomic trout]

In my opinion, it will be on the bottom of my heart. Below 10

[atomic trout]

I like Mult jokers though

[white zodiac]

another one on the list

red seal list

[serene forge]

balatro would be better if it had a hatsune miku collab

[grizzled yew]

How though

[atomic trout]

Chips are nice. I like Mult and Multiplyer Jokers, yet they are situational.

[nova junco]

I like taking bloodstone and dying ante 3 due to not a single trigger

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[buoyant fog]

okay so that's how we got here then LOL

[serene forge]

what is that

[obsidian patrol]

please try playing a gold stake run without any sources of chips

[nova junco]

Are you with the other very gay lesbian ppl here lol

This server is being swarmed

[wintry ice]

anything that has earlygame value will do more for you than something like showman who needs a very specific scenario to work

[atomic trout]

I should actually.

[serene forge]

no i just changed my name because its funny

[tame cobalt]

Make it hearts so I don't have to use goofy ass amogus art as the only decent looking hearts face art

[white zodiac]

I'll show you in zebra chatter

[buoyant fog]

any time I argue about how good a joker is, I talk about how fun it is to play

[tame cobalt]

Fun

In balatro?

[nova junco]

I do recognize being good and being fun aren't always the same

[tame cobalt]

Are you some kind of satanic witch?

[grave magnet]

Obelisk Wording: This joker gains x0.2 mult pper consecutive hand pplayed without playing your most played poker hand. i have 3 most played hands. will it reset if i play any of those 3 or does there need to be a leader.

[grizzled yew]

[lyric shore]

any

[atomic trout]

Play high card and then go for another hand, haha, it's a tricky joker

[buoyant fog]

So much hate 😭😭😭 like its just a discussion about a joker, I am not personally attacking you

[wintry ice]

breaking ties resets it

[white zodiac]

I don't take fun into account for discussion talk in the benefit of newer players taking forefront advice which is common in this server

I keep it clean

[grave magnet]

damn it...

[buoyant fog]

I mean, I'm pretty good at the game too, I'm just not always playing optimally

[acoustic kettle]

Photochad good

Ooga booga win

[white zodiac]

idk about that

[atomic trout]

Just have fun 😄

[white zodiac]

hmm

[tame cobalt]

Real talk if you think they're being rude report em to the mods, they'll handle it

[serene forge]

6. the dollar

[final bough]

balatro

[white zodiac]

usually they'll just tell you to block them

[buoyant fog]

I don't cause it isnt that serious

[wintry ice]

what have you done to earn that qualification you give yourself

[serene forge]

"i would have gotten first place in the competition if i even tried "

[white zodiac]

since it's just the usual game discussion banter

[nova junco]

Me when I see hate speech in balatro chat (completely used to it happens every day)

[tame cobalt]

Some of yall take it too far

[atomic trout]

It's a game discussion 😄

[buoyant fog]

I just find it crazy how heated these discussions get sometimes, but its all in good fun, we're all friends here except for the horse reactor person they kinda freak me out 😭

[tame cobalt]

Fr whats up with that

[atomic trout]

Don't expect eveyrone on agree. haha

[acoustic kettle]

We all jimblings

[final bough]

please ignore previous statement
no longer balatro

[white zodiac]

we grieve what we've lost back in whenever that feature was removed earlier this year

[manic zealot]

people don't need to agree they just need to be more considerate of others

[serene forge]

a cavalry is rapidly approaching your location at mach 5

[buoyant fog]

Yeah, we're all chill here tho, it just gets kinda crazy whenever flushes are mentioned LMAO

[atomic trout]

Or Bloodstones

[lunar zealot]

i mean i am like

[tame cobalt]

Stop speakin in tongues boah

[lunar zealot]

one of the worst players here bar none

[nova junco]

Or literally anything

[lunar zealot]

fork is better than me

lord knows zebra and rt and lilo are better than me 😭

[white zodiac]

first amendment

[tame cobalt]

It's a request

[white zodiac]

idek how good you are I just know you as the big baseball card fan girl

[lunar zealot]

i am

[serene forge]

nah

[tame cobalt]

I don't know what you're talking about and I'm asking you to elaborate

[atomic trout]

Do help me here, is Vagabond good on Fragile?

[lunar zealot]

my highest streak is 2

for reference

[manic zealot]

wacky build

[lunar zealot]

I mean ehhh

[white zodiac]

you have better things to do though

[serene forge]

I don't think ive ever gs streaked

[clear mulch]

mostly all tarots are useless

[serene forge]

i should try

[atomic trout]

What the Boots?

[atomic trout]

I thought so, unless I campfire

[manic zealot]

you get more mult the more money you have

[nova junco]

I don't think vagabond is very good but if you have it then it can be useful
Get the hallucination

[serene forge]

I hate Bootstraps

[clear mulch]

its probably better to take the blackboard

[serene forge]

probably not

[clear mulch]

and run hc

[wintry ice]

most of the active c++ players here are better than me

[serene forge]

you're gonna skip a lot

[atomic trout]

Death doesn't make a new Hologram count

[wintry ice]

my gameplay is very inconsistent

[white zodiac]

maybe

[atomic trout]

I realized, it breaks 100%

[clear mulch]

not if you play hc

[final bough]

woah woah woah woah what about wheel of fortune

[nova junco]

Who is talking about hologram now

[buoyant fog]

Okay Real talk I love skipping its a problem

[serene forge]

i did white stake rotation once and did it first try because white stake is literally free

[atomic trout]

It doesn't give enough Chips

[clear mulch]

im talking about in this challenge

[white zodiac]

@serene forge I didn't send the list here cause idk how ppl would feel about skill segregation lmao

[clear mulch]

planets

[serene forge]

we kinda figured that out when you said you got a 4x throwback

[nova junco]

Skill doesn't exist it's a construct of society

[serene forge]

real

[atomic trout]

High Card, it scored decently

One Glass Card = One free Tarot

[wintry ice]

using vagabond on fragile sounds mildly risky

[nova junco]

Not a very good trade in this challenge lol

[atomic trout]

Hologram. my goodness 😄

[nova junco]

Especially if it's wheel

[tulip pond]

I didn’t know you can get it that high

[white zodiac]

soya!

[atomic trout]

You're right, but it's free Money

[acoustic kettle]

Just skip the boss blind

[tulip pond]

chinese boy!

[white zodiac]

bruh

ok

[serene forge]

me when microaggression

[nova junco]

Also a lot of tarots means a lot of temperance and hermit which yeah they're pretty good

[atomic trout]

What is happening?

[clear mulch]

misprint giving chips

then hc

[atomic trout]

Vagabond with the Tarot? 😄

[white zodiac]

dude im fucking sick, my friends window didn't close on the hour ride back and had to deal with the wind howling and chills

[atomic trout]

And I"m poor on Fragile. I could win this

[clear mulch]

+mult is mostly useless here because of glass

[atomic trout]

That Hologram is at x1

[nova junco]

Yeah find a fib/smiley/suit +5 anything like that

[wintry ice]

you want to avoid playing too many hands from what i remember

[tulip pond]

Real shit

[atomic trout]

I should have read the fine print

[clear mulch]

strangely cryptid isnt banned

[atomic trout]

My bad, all the banned cards

[atomic trout]

Wait really? Must find... Spectral

[floral mural]

so even if next boss blind is vessel i have enough score i can cut duo to get the baron sticker

[clear mulch]

have fun trying to look for it just to get 2 extra cards

[nova junco]

Not that strange, the logic is you can't make non-glass cards, not you can't get more cards in general

[atomic trout]

Familar, Grim, and Enchantment are banned. But I didn't realize that Cryptic isn't

[clear mulch]

mmhh

meow

[nova junco]

DNA isn't banned either

I'm pretty sure

[clear mulch]

dna isnt banned

wow

[white zodiac]

im still missing the baron sticker

[atomic trout]

You guys are good, I nearly lost, lol

[clear mulch]

well Eva, it's not that strange, the logic is you can't make non-glass cards, not you can't get more cards in general

[buoyant fog]

Okay guys wait

[white zodiac]

awesome

[clear mulch]

thanks beatch

[potent tree]

the homework demon is preventing me from reaching c++ chat

this is most unfortunate.

[nova junco]

What😭

[buoyant fog]

Is Baron better than bloodstone

[nova junco]

Bro got hallucination joker irl

[serene forge]

yes

because baron actually does what it says

[white zodiac]

me but it's just my pure laziness from finishing a 5th profile

[white zodiac]

yes

I feel like I dont like it because of my playstyle

[clear mulch]

deltarune ost is so good btw please glaze it

[atomic trout]

I lost too many cards, too fast.

[wintry ice]

haha sock doesn't retrigger baron

[atomic trout]

Fragile is a horror game. lol

[buoyant fog]

I love destroying face cards

[potent tree]

song that might play when you fight sans

[floral mural]

took both for stickers

:3

[buoyant fog]

thats usually what I'll thin out of my deck first thing

[nova junco]

Me when no chips early game

[atomic trout]

Does anyone have a tips on how to get ahead on Green Deck, Gold Stakes?

[floral mural]

anaglyph and plasma deck left for c+ on mobile now

[clear mulch]

win

[buoyant fog]

I mean full house with aces and 10s bro

[nova junco]

No clue lol pray

[atomic trout]

Haha

[white zodiac]

baron isnt probability based upon draw. has a more accessible decent joker enabler (fist) than shitstone, has better x mult timing despite still being shit before most flat mult.

[atomic trout]

I did enough praying, so many Eternals

[buoyant fog]

shitstone 😭 😭 😭

[clear mulch]

its accurate

[tulip pond]

It’s what it is

[buoyant fog]

Nah but that makes sense

[acoustic kettle]

Full house🤨

[atomic trout]

I realized that Campfire and any Rental Joker is OP

[buoyant fog]

Full house for early game, 2 pair for late game

[clear mulch]

i think you mean with any rental joker

[acoustic kettle]

Campfire got stronger because of gold stake

[white zodiac]

consumables/a moderate amount of money*

[floral mural]

dreading plasma deck

[buoyant fog]

(I have played 5,000 two pairs)

[serene forge]

I love Silksong

[atomic trout]

All Rental Jokers, they cost $1, sell a dollar $1. Free fro the Campfire

[tulip pond]

What lunatic plays full house early game

[acoustic kettle]

Easiest deck

Fr

[serene forge]

i realized that campfire *is op

[white zodiac]

this one (I play abandoned)

[buoyant fog]

Its the first thing I fish for in ante 1 usually

[atomic trout]

If you find it, lol

[serene forge]

me

[clear mulch]

yes, rentals are good WITH campfire. if you actually use most of them you probably just lose interest

[atomic trout]

OR Madness with any Eternal jokers

[tulip pond]

that’s terrible probabilities you’re fishing for

[buoyant fog]

Eh I mean it works 99% of the time for me

[atomic trout]

Oh my

[tulip pond]

what’s your argument against flat out math

[floral mural]

go for flushes instead as your default ante 1 hand

[serene forge]

I hate Full Hourse

[tulip pond]

You pulled that number out of your ass

[buoyant fog]

I'm a different kind of beast

[nova junco]

I usually try to get a high straight ante 1

[atomic trout]

Full House is strong

[acoustic kettle]

Full horse

No

[serene forge]

they think bloodstone isn't dogshit despite evidence to the contrary

[clear mulch]

i go straights, full houses (rarely) and flushrs 😨

[acoustic kettle]

[white zodiac]

he's a red seal member it makes sense

[atomic trout]

Well, they scale decently

[serene forge]

math is not exactly their strong suit i think

[tulip pond]

Wait what

[buoyant fog]

Eh, I know its easier to do but the vibes to me are just lame

[grave magnet]

thankfully i bought the boss re-roll and i have 19 dollars to drop, hhow bad is it to fight the cerulean bell?

[acoustic kettle]

Said no one ever

[worn drum]

I just had the stupidest run ever

[atomic trout]

I feel like I'm missing something

[tulip pond]

this one? defended bloodstone?

[worn drum]

Two eternal STM, bp and bs

[serene forge]

can you tell me what's wrong with this image

[manic zealot]

really not that bad imo

[worn drum]

And a mime which I had to sell for verdant leaf

[atomic trout]

Blueprint and bloodstone?

[clear mulch]

is it really even a boss blind

[worn drum]

Brainstorm

[tulip pond]

Uhhh… What did they play on the first hand?

[atomic trout]

STM, what is that?

[grave magnet]

gotcha, guess i'll experience it for myself

[acoustic kettle]

Probably the easiest boss

[clear mulch]

:(

[white zodiac]

[serene forge]

[worn drum]

Shoot the moon

[clear mulch]

wait its dec 1st

i need to jolly

[atomic trout]

Had made many Queens?

[buoyant fog]

Shoot the moon my goat

[worn drum]

Quite a lot

Not a lot of steel though

[atomic trout]

Yass Queen

[worn drum]

Which made it scary once I sold the mime

[buoyant fog]

Has won me so many high stakes runs

[tulip pond]

Classic bloodstone interaction 💯

[serene forge]

@white zodiac fuck you

[worn drum]

But I got through

[clear mulch]

wait

i

NO

[serene forge]

and tony defended this shit

[atomic trout]

Game discussion?

[floral mural]

shoot the moon being better than baron despite being flat mult is so funny

[clear mulch]

I READ BRAINSTORM

[white zodiac]

get out horse'd

[white zodiac]

fr

[floral mural]

stm has the same boss weakness as baron but plays way better early and you can just use steel on some queens

[atomic trout]

My liege. That's a lot

[clear mulch]

only good jokers wow

[buoyant fog]

I need an updated version of my stats on PC

[tulip pond]

New players are like that though. You don’t listen to them if they suck at the game for the nature of being new players

[serene forge]

I have no faith in humanity anymore

[buoyant fog]

I think trousers is my #1 LMAO

[clear mulch]

you already posted this

[serene forge]

they're not new they've won on gold stakes a couple times

[clear mulch]

heh

[white zodiac]

eye bleach profile

[weak shale]

running a walkie talkie build and get red seal 4 off rip

[atomic trout]

This is weird.

[acoustic kettle]

Should've been cert or grimbo😔

[buoyant fog]

one of those being with Bloodstone btw

[atomic trout]

I think I love Supernova.

[clear mulch]

i literally only see good jokers..... smh

[buoyant fog]

ehehehehe

[serene forge]

i think i love my gf

[clear mulch]

remove the hanging chad

[buoyant fog]

Ewwww grimbo is so lame

[wintry ice]

forc found in kitchen

[tulip pond]

You’re lame

[atomic trout]

Noooo

[clear mulch]

youre getting banned, no different opinions im the only correct one

[atomic trout]

I like the Hanging Chad

[buoyant fog]

🚙

[atomic trout]

Gimme a hand?

[buoyant fog]

oh damn you edited it

[nova junco]

Guys I got the ride the bus joker irl

[floral mural]

the run i just did used kings as the four of a kind rank but did like nothing to use them specifically as a rank (i even got planted and survived)

[buoyant fog]

I mean its just too easy

[final bough]

hm

[clear mulch]

but im evil

[atomic trout]

Wooow. I don't even have Blueprint anywhere, lol

[clear mulch]

mmhh non

noo

[atomic trout]

How did you manage to find that that many times?

[buoyant fog]

LMAO

[clear mulch]

luck

[final bough]

literally no clue

[nova junco]

When you have 2 of the same jokers it counts for 2, that probably means many endless runs with 4 blueprints at one time

[clear mulch]

it wasnt that funny 😭 i try being as unfunny as possible

[tulip pond]

@white zodiac damn when did you beat your plasma streak

[atomic trout]

I never saw Blueprint half the time. I got Hanging Chad in second place

[final bough]

also how tf have i used soul that much i swear i havent

[hidden pewter]

What rarity is cavendish?

[atomic trout]

Ghost Deck?

[buoyant fog]

Im gonna be honest I just didnt know how else to respond

[clear mulch]

common

[nova junco]

Common

[clear mulch]

were decapitating you

[buoyant fog]

Cavendish being common is such horseshit

[final bough]

yuh

[white zodiac]

a few weeks ago I think
did you look at my about me

[wintry ice]

i would like the scaling mult jokers more if blue stake didn't make them always the optimal choice

[atomic trout]

Hex usually works on the first Jokers, lol

[final bough]

what else would it be

[atomic trout]

Otherwise nobody really goes for Hex unless you have some Eternal Jokers

[buoyant fog]

I just mean for being a common it sure never likes to pop up

I've only ever seen it like 4 times

[final bough]

if it were rarer it would pop up less

[clear mulch]

i mean you need to break gros michel firsy so its very rare

[nova junco]

You need to buy gros Michel and have it go extinct by the 1 in 6 change before it appears

[wintry ice]

i mean yeah you do have to go through extincting it

[white zodiac]

I think black deck makes it somewhat balanced as crazy as that sounds

[atomic trout]

Cavendish

[hidden pewter]

ngl I like it, cuz it sucks when u get the banana like ante 2, and then u dont get cavendish

[atomic trout]

It never broke on me in my 225 hours playing

[wintry ice]

wow we should change blue stake to -1 hand then

then every build gets fucked

[tulip pond]

Yeah, i saw some changes

[atomic trout]

Too many hours

[buoyant fog]

I know but still I swear I've seen the same uncommon jokers in consecutive shops more often than a Cavendish after Michel pops

[clear mulch]

there are more commons than uncommons

[final bough]

guess my favorite hand

[buoyant fog]

true

[white zodiac]

yeah but we give the game like +2 discards as a fun balance 👅

[clear mulch]

ew

im gonna die

[buoyant fog]

2 pair is not nearly high enough

[clear mulch]

smash mouth

[atomic trout]

Has anyone tried to do the Completionist++?

[final bough]

try 2,700 hours on geometry dash

[clear mulch]

mmh nope nobody ever

you can be the first

[white zodiac]

never heard of it

[atomic trout]

Whaaaat?

[buoyant fog]

I'm working towards it rn

[unreal island]

not enough

[atomic trout]

I can't even get Green Deck Gold Stakes. It's tough economy

[buoyant fog]

Lemme guess you live in like Idaho

[acoustic kettle]

Chadders

[final bough]

not even close

[buoyant fog]

or Arkansas

[white zodiac]

im doing a black deck c++ rn when u were gone and I almost beat my streak on the profile lmao

[atomic trout]

I'm still learning lol

[wintry ice]

you're rhe whay

[final bough]

cali

[buoyant fog]

where's the horse freak with the photochad meme when u need it

[atomic trout]

I'm on Black Deck, Blue Stakes, I rather just White Stakes.

[buoyant fog]

Oh lord 😭

[tulip pond]

Damn that sounds like fun

[lunar zealot]

horse freak is crazy

her name is fork

[buoyant fog]

That wouldve been my last guess

[tulip pond]

Don’t search Mr. Hands

[final bough]

i like money please ignore the embarrassing amount of wof

[atomic trout]

Genocide

[buoyant fog]

I love Enumclaw New Jersey

[tulip pond]

[buoyant fog]

isnt it in new jersey

or was it Washington

[tulip pond]

enumclaw horse sex case

[buoyant fog]

anyway....

balaro

[acoustic kettle]

High card slowly catching up

[tulip pond]

man gets fucked to death

by the stallion

[buoyant fog]

Yes we know brah

FUCKIN CUT IT OUT

[atomic trout]

I always want to reach Exponential numbers

[tulip pond]

such a tragedy

[buoyant fog]

Idk he seemed pretty alright with it

[white zodiac]

you haven't changed ❤️

[atomic trout]

Wait, sorry for the Spanish

[manic zealot]

how could you

jk

[atomic trout]

Has anyone reached Exponential numbers?

[manic zealot]

ya

I got naneinf in a run for the first time last week

[acoustic kettle]

High card

[sinful prairie]

Well

[buoyant fog]

I have only in a seeded run

[patent prairie]

yah

[atomic trout]

What on Balatro?

[patent prairie]

my heighest hand was uhhh 9.9e16

[tulip pond]

I never change 🤗

[atomic trout]

Screenshot

[patent prairie]

ill foward a clip holdon

[atomic trout]

It's the only proof we Balatro fans have

[buoyant fog]

OF MR HANDS?!?!?!?!?!

Oh wait nvm

[buoyant fog]

didnt see the previous messages

[patent prairie]

delicious

[tulip pond]

That one is on you

[atomic trout]

That was nice

[buoyant fog]

I mean it is pretty funny

[grave magnet]

3RD WIN! ughh, it was stressful having to overlook using a flush, pair, two pair and at the very end, a full house

[buoyant fog]

Noice

[atomic trout]

The Final Boss where they grab your Card by force, oh my

[grave magnet]

seed is 7F4SF92A

[tulip pond]

naneinf runs are achievable once every five or so runs so if people are searching for them it’s not that hard

[white zodiac]

fr

gn

[atomic trout]

My stats above shows that I made it to Billions, lol

[grave magnet]

The Fool came in clutch with the pluto planet card

[atomic trout]

And it's not even a planet anymore.

[tulip pond]

🫶

[grave magnet]

its a dwarf planet

[atomic trout]

But I love High Card.

[austere escarp]

shortcut and two pair jonkler in one go

[atomic trout]

There's too many Jokers. lol

[grave magnet]

Best Part? The Obelisk i was running was Polychrome.

[tulip pond]

nice 👍

Straights and no x mult joker synergy stays strong

[final bough]

my phone HATES saving my balatro data when im not at home i swear i reached e20 something at school once

[atomic trout]

Spare Trousers, Ceremorial Dagger, The Soda, Credit Card, Ride the Bus, Flower Pot, Lucky Cat, Cardsharp, Cavendish

[austere escarp]

lmao no I played pairs the entire time

[atomic trout]

Ceremonial Dagger*

[tulip pond]

Wow

[clear mulch]

hey you cant play balatro at school

im telling a trusted adut

[tulip pond]

You bamboozled me

[austere escarp]

blue deck is probably a pair run 99% of the time

[atomic trout]

High Card ftw

[lunar zealot]

you don't even need to specify deck

[atomic trout]

Maybe that's why I can't win Gold Stakes

[final bough]

i literally put my chem teacher on balatro bro im not kidding

[lunar zealot]

you play pairs on almost every deck and pivot when necessary

[austere escarp]

but blue deck is even better at it

[lunar zealot]

[lunar zealot]

If i can name a single deck that doesn't start off with pairs

painted straights

and that's kind of it really

[atomic trout]

They can do a lot of good. There's so many jokers that help, using less cards on Gold and Steel cards, no sacrafice of more cards.

[grave magnet]

😢 Flush is my highest with pair coming behind it

[clear mulch]

sir what

[atomic trout]

Flushes are nice. I wish they scaled faster on Purple Stakes

[austere escarp]

flushes require jokers to be really good

[buoyant fog]

I didnt even notice half of that stuff LMAO nice

[atomic trout]

Smeared Joker is my favorite

[grave magnet]

fair. my highest tarot tho is Emperor.

[austere escarp]

ancient joker trivializes the game early

[buoyant fog]

Just like Bloodstone the objectively best joker in the game

[atomic trout]

Oops All Sixes makes it bleed 100%

[atomic trout]

And get them Sun Tarot cards, we're making Hearts!

[lunar zealot]

Ah right checkered flushes but who tf plays checkered and isn't named vayn

[grave magnet]

hhow hard is nebula deck?

[buoyant fog]

Angrymonkey2489 just gets it bro

[atomic trout]

It varies.

[austere escarp]

these final ones are kinda annoying

other than obelisk

[lunar zealot]

steel joker is fine

[atomic trout]

It's fun to explain the mechanics of the game 😄

[lunar zealot]

the other three are rough though

prioritize bean 100%

[austere escarp]

yeah but I gotta get a steel card first and the whole nine

[lunar zealot]

at least it's xmult

[atomic trout]

Steel Joker Scales nicely when you find more Steel, yet your deck will flood

[lunar zealot]

steel joker isn't optimal but much better than like throwback or something

[austere escarp]

true

[lunar zealot]

a great synergy is vagabond steel joker

or any tarot gen really i like hallu with it

[atomic trout]

I like Stone Joker with Vampire

[austere escarp]

steel cards saved my last run that got me shortcut and the two pair chip one

[buoyant fog]

Holy is that all you have left for joker stickers?

[atomic trout]

Vagabond with Credit Card and Campfire = heaven

[austere escarp]

yeah I have been at like the last ten for awhile now

[tulip pond]

credit card?

[austere escarp]

I havent been playing as much

[atomic trout]

Cartomancer*

[tulip pond]

Same actually

[atomic trout]

With Vagabond

[buoyant fog]

Yeah I bet just those last few are hard to get LMAO

[austere escarp]

not too bad

[buoyant fog]

but also sometimes I get burnt out if I play too much

[austere escarp]

you can always get a shit ton of money and reroll last ante

[atomic trout]

I got burnt out a while ago after a losing streak.

[tulip pond]

You don’t need credit card to make use of the other two jokers, i’d that what have any other joker consumable generator

[atomic trout]

But I love to burn all the tarots... except Hermit

[tacit stream]

All uncommon/rare jokers with some "not easy to carry" ones left. Looks like this will take quite some time.

[tulip pond]

i like to use my joker slots

[atomic trout]

Even though I run poor, Hermit does help when it comes to some Blinds and some money

[tulip pond]

and shop

ig

[atomic trout]

Unless Jokerless?

[tulip pond]

What?

[atomic trout]

Jokerless, the challenge*

[tulip pond]

What about it

[lunar zealot]

credit card doesn't do much on a vagabond run

[atomic trout]

You like to use your Joker slots but on th Jokerless challenge, there are none, lol

[tulip pond]

Talking about jokers, brings up jokerless. they call me the ice breaker

in the convo

[golden epoch]

I lovr balartor

[lunar zealot]

strictly speaking vagabond runs still want econ

[tulip pond]

Yeah

[lunar zealot]

make gold cards and use temperance

[austere escarp]

insane pull

[atomic trout]

It may not, but an extra -20 dollars is nice. And the generating Tarot cards... can hit and miss. I had good runs with Campfire

[lunar zealot]

credit card doesn't provide much synergy in that regard

[tulip pond]

Ideally i wouldn’t want a rental vagabond

[lunar zealot]

like really at all

[lunar zealot]

i mean if you get early gold cards rental vaga doesn't matter at that point

[tulip pond]

It means i need one more gold card to offset the rental

[lunar zealot]

i would definitely take rental vaga

[austere escarp]

I like vagabond with a bunch of gold cards, you just spend all your money every shop

[atomic trout]

Yeah

[tulip pond]

The if depends

[austere escarp]

makes drivers license easy

[lunar zealot]

also vagabond has a surprising synergy with one econ joker in particular

[atomic trout]

Vagabond is useless when you have Lucky Cards. I forgot about the +$20

[lunar zealot]

cloud 9

[tulip pond]

Like if that’s the only joker i have I’ll die from pretty bad stop hits if tarot hits aren’t helping short term

[lunar zealot]

it depends yeah

[atomic trout]

Driver's Licence is my favorite, I usually go for the Hierophant and Empress deck build

[tulip pond]

It triggers after vagabond generates the tarot

[atomic trout]

It's easiest on the Zodiac Deck and the other one

[tulip pond]

As in it still gives you the tarot

[atomic trout]

The one with the two Fools

Magic Deck!

[tulip pond]

Why zodiac specifically

[atomic trout]

Strangely you start with the Tarot Merchant, Planet Merchant and Overstock vouchers.

[fervent wolf]

Are my messages getting watched?

[atomic trout]

I dunno, it's funny how it works.

[tulip pond]

Oh for drivers license

[atomic trout]

Yeeeh

[atomic trout]

I did get lucky with Tarot cards and so many Empresess that it impressed me, on Black Deck.

[tulip pond]

Meh it varies

[atomic trout]

I love runs that do that

[mental bloom]

They are now.

[atomic trout]

We'll forget in T-minus 10

Just like the hours of playing Balatro.

[fervent wolf]

uh oh...

[atomic trout]

How many games have you all won?

[mental bloom]

I'm at 115 + 23 on mobile 😇

[atomic trout]

Oh yeah the mobile

[mental bloom]

So that I can gamble everywhere

[fervent wolf]

Yes

Well I'm running to another channel!

[mental bloom]

I'll find you....~

[atomic trout]

Soo many victories

[mental bloom]

Yeaaaa

[atomic trout]

Daaayng

[tulip pond]

23 in a row on gold stake zodiac

Good times

[mental bloom]

Wow that's insane

What made you lose the streak ?

[tulip pond]

Flint

[atomic trout]

How is this possible?

[tulip pond]

Playing the game

[atomic trout]

I only had 3 white runs hehe

[fervent wolf]

I hate Flint

[tulip pond]

Same

[atomic trout]

Flint cuts you in half

[tulip pond]

1/4

[mental bloom]

Ah

[fervent wolf]

Not as much as**...**

[atomic trout]

Excuse me? 1/4?

[mental bloom]

🤭🤭

[atomic trout]

The Ante 7 Purple Stakes Wall?

[tulip pond]

20 x 2 -> 10 x 1

[fervent wolf]

I might be cooked

[atomic trout]

LOL. that's half

[tulip pond]

This is 3rd grade math

[atomic trout]

Buuuut

[mental bloom]

Definitely...

[tulip pond]

ah yes, 10 is half of 40 i’m genius

[atomic trout]

2 x 20 = 40

1 x 10 = 10

That's 3/4!

[fervent wolf]

Chat I need HELP.

[tulip pond]

mhm

[atomic trout]

Balatro lied to us

[mental bloom]

Flint could cut your score in half yet it cuts the Chips and Mult

[mental bloom]

...🤭

[fervent wolf]

Yeah

[atomic trout]

It is half 🤣

[tulip pond]

No you just suck at math

[mental bloom]

I do suck at math

[fervent wolf]

Time to run to another channel or server...

[mental bloom]

So I'm not gonna do it

[atomic trout]

But then if you have scaling jokers with Chips. You'd be fine. The Flint only goes for Planet spammers

[tulip pond]

It’s mostly vibes for me

[mental bloom]

That won't save you...

[atomic trout]

The Eye. Holy

[tulip pond]

can’t control that ante 2

which is how i died

[atomic trout]

True

[fervent wolf]

I can damn well try

[mental bloom]

An Early Flint is very deadly

[mental bloom]

Well, do so...

[atomic trout]

The Flint doesn't show up on Ante 2

[fervent wolf]

Just like you....

[tulip pond]

Yes it does

[mental bloom]

Yes it does?

[fervent wolf]

It does tho

[mental bloom]

I'm pretty sure

[atomic trout]

Oh dear

[mental bloom]

🤭🤭

[atomic trout]

I don't remember ☹️

[mental bloom]

He's asking for it...

[tulip pond]

Wall and needle can show up

[mental bloom]

Dw it's okay

[fervent wolf]

What....

I'm not...

[atomic trout]

I've seen the Needle

Usually do lose before the needle

[mental bloom]

Yea, yeah...

[fervent wolf]

I'm running to main server chat trust dwdw

Or did I...

[mental bloom]

You did...

[atomic trout]

The weakest wall and a dull needle. Ante 2

Ante 9 Needle is scary 🤣

[fervent wolf]

Mhm....totally....

[tulip pond]

Ante 9 doesn’t exist

[mental bloom]

Depends on the Jokers you have at the moment it can still be deadly

[atomic trout]

I always end game when I see Ante 9 Needle

[fervent wolf]

Crazy

[mental bloom]

Lol, understandable 😭

[atomic trout]

Or purple stake Violet Vessel

HOLY

[mental bloom]

Ah, right

600,000 is damn crazy

Is that 600,000 ?

I don't remember

[tulip pond]

1.2m

[atomic trout]

1.2 million

[fervent wolf]

Yeah

[vocal rose]

1.2 million

[tulip pond]

2.4 on plasma

[fervent wolf]

On purple is 1.2mil

[atomic trout]

Unless you have Chichot

[mental bloom]

Ohhh I thought that was on Plasma Deck

[atomic trout]

Really?

[fervent wolf]

Is 600k on green

[mental bloom]

Alr alr

[vocal rose]

plasma deck is 2.4 million

[fervent wolf]

Green stake is 600k

[atomic trout]

Still High

[mental bloom]

Owwwww

[fervent wolf]

Nah easy

[tulip pond]

No i was just lying cause i felt like it

[atomic trout]

LOL

[mental bloom]

I beat only 1 purple stake, my fault

[fervent wolf]

Can't remember the last time I died to VV tbh

[atomic trout]

I had with bad draws from a deck of 90 cards

[fervent wolf]

Can't remember the last time I died to ante 8 boss tbh 💔

I either lose prematurely or win

[hidden pewter]

Wait Ineed advice, if Im 6/8 Antes, do I take heiroglyph voucher?

[atomic trout]

Yeh

[atomic trout]

It depends on your situation

[hidden pewter]

I have dupe blackboard

[atomic trout]

Screenshot? 🤣

[vale wharf]

Straight joker: playing a straight as last hand if round upgrades straight level by 1

The liars on the Balatro server telling me to play straights:

[hidden pewter]

Also how does hyroglyph work, is everysingle blind lowering ur hand by 1?

[austere escarp]

lucky run

on a roll tonight

[fervent wolf]

How to unlock the scribble joker?

[vale wharf]

What even is this build

[austere escarp]

I got cryptid in the shop and played flush five blue seal aces

[vale wharf]

You mean this one?

[fervent wolf]

Yeah

The scribble joker

[pine drum]

Got a high card/full house build with 12 jacks and eight 10's on deck. Should i sell dna for acrobat or should i keep copying jacks on my deck?

[vale wharf]

You will have -1 hand per round for the rest of the run
If you had 4 hands, you will now have 3 hands for every round

[vale wharf]

His name is brainstorm and you unlock him by discarding a royal flush

[fervent wolf]

Ty lol

Straight builds are fun chat

[vale wharf]

Np
Why did you say "scribble joker", though? I see many people asking the same question and saying scribble joker

[vale shale]

Alright alright. 1 take gold stake run any deck. What deck we thinking bout.

[manic zealot]

it looks like a scribble, a doodle

[fervent wolf]

It's a joke

[vale shale]

We haven't gotten a 3rd win in the winstreak.

[fervent wolf]

Inside joke of Balatro

[vale wharf]

I will devein you

[fervent wolf]

Repost

[tidal valley]

[fervent wolf]

It was torture sitting through the last 10 Antes or so

Serpent burglar....serpent burglar....

[tidal valley]

Ive only ever gold staked one deck and it was checkered 😭

I’ve also never had a run past ante 13 😭

and ive been playing on and off for pretty much a year now 🥲

[fervent wolf]

I gold staked Erratic, Ghost, Blue, Yellow, and Anaglyph

[tidal valley]

Im on gold for ghost and the arrowhead run got close but i got hit with crimson heart and lost
