[lunar zealot]

yknow

i just realized something

[pale wolf]

for the first time ever

[shell dagger]

Why must you be so unkind game

[lunar zealot]

Shut up zebra

[shell dagger]

Stop giving me decisions

[pale wolf]

doc would take both

[hardy jackal]

I have never gotten past ante 12 I am a noob

[pale wolf]

endless isnt real

but probably yea

[hardy jackal]

I know that

[buoyant fog]

what a strange run I got right here

this will be my 2nd gold sticker on a spare trousers if I win this one LMAO

[lunar zealot]

Bbc here would go so fucking hard

[buoyant fog]

first one was on my PC

[buoyant fog]

true

[cosmic maple]

Do I drop hologram?

[buoyant fog]

but sadly couldnt replace anything except maybe holo

[pale wolf]

it would be cool if it tracked how many gold wins you have on each joker

[pale wolf]

andy??

lol

[buoyant fog]

That would be nice, maybe there's a mod for that?

[pale wolf]

oh stickering

i gotcha

[hardy jackal]

bbc?

[pale wolf]

baseball card

[lunar zealot]

Uncommon Jokers each give x1.5 Mult

[hardy jackal]

never abreviate baseball card again

[buoyant fog]

LMAO

[lunar zealot]

we have done it

[torpid veldt]

bbc

[lunar zealot]

we do it now

we will continue to do it

and we will never stop

[buoyant fog]

Nah Andy could go but its good since I'm spamming 2 pair

[pale wolf]

i don't think so but i dont play endless

[raw loom]

Its over guys c++ and plat

To the guy who showed me the pair way may your pillow cover always be cold

[buoyant fog]

Although I rarely need to use that many discards

[torpid veldt]

i love bbc

[buoyant fog]

voucher would make Andy easily replacable

[pale wolf]

I feel like the hand size bonus you get from selling Andy will be just as good for two pairs

[buoyant fog]

true

[lunar zealot]

baseball card is my favorite joker.
one of the best in the game too; for a multitude of reasons from an innocuous premise of 'uncommon jokers each give x1.5 mult'
it gives a build direction, whether it's taken early mid or late game - in a game where direction is almost everything, to have a joker that provides it and gives scoring that is more than adequate for its opportunity cost is an incredibly large boon, not even considering the implications of every uncommon giving x1.5 yet
making every uncommon x1.5 makes every uncommon viable; every uncommon no matter how esoteric gives xmult with bbc which allows for a surprising amount of strategy
'bad' uncommons like idol seance and showman, rather than being unusable on gold stake runs instead gain a second wind of giving x1.5 mult
xmult and +mult uncommons have additional note simply because x1.5 on top of the value they themselves already give is significant; retrigger jokers have inherent synergy as they are uncommon and strategies that tend to use them (wee, ancient joker, triboulet) can always make use of baseball card for more xmult; utility and econ uncommons also have note simply due to the fact that they would not provide scoring by themselves if not for bbc - cloud 9, shortcut, and so many more, because the amount of uncommons means you will almost never run out of options
and you don't necessarily have to only use uncommons in any given run; 2 alone give x2.25 mult which is more than see2, more than duo, more than ramen, and considering you in a typical run have a +mult joker, an econ joker and 1 or 2 xmult jokers, should at least 2 of those be uncommon that already justifies bbc's place on any given build - let alone 3 or even 4 uncommons giving x3.375 and x5.0625 mult respectively which would easily allow you to beat violet vessel in 1 hand; but even then a bbc run can and does beat violet vessel making its score ceiling more than adequate, as well as being resilient to most boss blinds
tl;dr bbc good

[buoyant fog]

but they're really easy to draw

[buoyant fog]

Gaht Dayum

[lunar zealot]

I like bbc more than most people

[pale wolf]

its time

[lunar zealot]

Personally i think it should be buffed by making more jokers uncommon

[hardy jackal]

you should change your username to be abbreviation

[lunar zealot]

No i'll get banned

gotta keep it on the down low

[hardy jackal]

you said it ten times already

[lunar zealot]

:3

[viral raft]

Idk but i think that the game should make that rare jokers shouldn't appear in ante 1 or atleast the first shop of the run, so you always start with something that mostly works in short term to survive early antes, similar to half of the tags in the first ante.

[pale wolf]

ugh
fine

[lunar zealot]

TAKE JIMBO

[viral raft]

Jimbo to save econ

[shell dagger]

good thing im not the doc >:)

[lunar zealot]

ante 1 vagabond and obelisk are great though

[pale wolf]

not even rebate is crazy tbh

[hardy jackal]

+4 mult is +4 mult

[stark karma]

is a level 49 high card alright for naneinfing?

[lunar zealot]

Let alone ante 1 wee

[stark karma]

should be right?

[shell dagger]

rebate w green actually makes me sick i know it’s correct

[lunar zealot]

it doesn't matter above like level 12

[stark karma]

thought so thanks

[lunar zealot]

It's like edging

[viral raft]

Obelisk start working in ante 5, vagabond is true that is amazing in short-long term but tbh most of them nah, blueprint round 1 shop is almost a sacrifice to your econ and most of rare jokers are made to builds, not early game runs

[lunar zealot]

or like

what's the word

delayed gratification

[lunar zealot]

Early obelisk gives you instant direction

also you're forgetting ante 1 wee

[viral raft]

I mean wee is always good

But yeaj

[lunar zealot]

Well yeah

[viral raft]

But like, that's 3 or 4 rare jokers

When you see your shop and see a blueprint, you can't even buy it lmao

[lunar zealot]

i wanna agree with you cuz your pfp is based as hell but like that just doesn't really fit the vibe of the game

If you need to survive ante 1 all you need is one saturn man

[pale wolf]

currently priestess gives me the most money

[lunar zealot]

LOLLL

[viral raft]

I just don't like that sometimes in the shop in ante 1 theres some rare jokers that just works in already prepared build

Like baron, dna, htr

[lunar zealot]

So do many common and uncommons

photograph and constell

[viral raft]

But they work decent in short term or they go online easilt

Except seance

That shit sucks

[dry rivet]

Anyone wanna battle

[viral raft]

Photo is a easy x2 in early and conste can with some planets already be decent

[lunar zealot]

why are there so many filipinos in this server

[cosmic maple]

Is it time to drop photochad?

[dry rivet]

Im not Filipino im north korean

[shell dagger]

Rares aren’t supposed to work straight away

[lunar zealot]

bro im filipino

[shell dagger]

They have big shifts in playstyle

[lunar zealot]

it's fine

[viral raft]

Yep

[shell dagger]

im so sorry…

[twin lantern]

sorry to hear that

[viral raft]

Sorru for what?

[hardy fable]

fr? Who? me, you, who else?

[viral raft]

😭😭😭

[shell dagger]

to hear the news

[lunar zealot]

It's so hard every day

[dry rivet]

Filipino= Corrupt

[twin lantern]

imagine being Filipino can't be me

[viral raft]

Lmao

😭

[hardy fable]

well pilipinoes are addicted to gambling so make sense they like balatro

[viral raft]

Tbh i would like to Trunk buff most of tags

Most of them are like trash

Just the econ ones are okay

[pale wolf]

😀 ↔️

[cosmic maple]

Then you have vouchers tags double tags and negative tags

[pale wolf]

no

[cosmic maple]

Nah

[lunar zealot]

Trunk

[cosmic maple]

Elaborate?

[viral raft]

Trunk

[viral raft]

Negative tags are so overrated

[pale wolf]

id drop astro

[viral raft]

Is just random shit

[cosmic maple]

Really? It's made so much

[stark karma]

ok on ante 25, got overstock+ and both reroll vouchers, do I sell dna for parking?

I'm assuming it's time to serpent roll and find burger

[viral raft]

Wtf, no

[shell dagger]

Yes

[stark karma]

how deep should I roll for burger

[viral raft]

Search a better econ like rebate

[stark karma]

no

[shell dagger]

No

[stark karma]

not on the serpent

[shell dagger]

They’re only playing bosses

And can only survive serpent

So parking is by far the best econ

[stark karma]

thanks RT

[viral raft]

The deck is alreadu fixxed?

[stark karma]

how deep should I roll for burglar

[shell dagger]

I would probably roll to $30 or so

[stark karma]

I have nearly a hundred cards

[viral raft]

Ok, parking should be okay but try to search for a rebate later idk

[shell dagger]

No 😭

Rebate is just worse

[stark karma]

like 14 gold

[stark karma]

they might be trolling

[viral raft]

Why? It works well in no boss blinds

[stark karma]

I only play boss blinds

[shell dagger]

They aren’t playing small and big blinds

[stark karma]

I only play the serpent

[viral raft]

How

[stark karma]

I can only discard one card

[shell dagger]

Bc otherwise they die

[viral raft]

Oh ok

[stark karma]

I have nearly 6K thats how

[viral raft]

Yeah parking is good

[stark karma]

okay so roll for 30 look for parking

cool cool

[winter ember]

has anyone ever been able to purchase all 32 vouchers in one run?

[viral raft]

Yeah, voucher tags

When you buy them all just more blanks appears

[nova junco]

Six seven

[lunar zealot]

Get out

[winter ember]

ah cool thanks @viral raft

[viral raft]

Yeah, also get you break the voucher limit just more blanks appears

[stark karma]

2 copies on mime 2 on parking?

or 1 parking 3 mimes

[cosmic maple]

Leave

[stark karma]

I think the latter

[nova junco]

If you only care about the money then 2 and 2

[viral raft]

I think 2 2 is good

[nova junco]

If there's more like steel then maybe mime is better for scoring

[stark karma]

oh yeahh

[shell dagger]

1 mime 3 parking

The logic is the same as copying baron/mime for red seal gold kings

The cards have 2 triggers and 0 scoring effects (money hits)

[stark karma]

yeah I was like wait

yall wrong

cuz the card and red seal triggers

so x16 parking ig

[gloomy swallow]

I don't need the king to win, do I stick it in

For da gold sticker

nvm I'm broke

as it turned out I did need the kind to win

oh well

[stark karma]

honestly I'm breaking even with the parking

should I roll past 30?

I prob dont need to

[clear mulch]

[late kelp]

[clear mulch]

[late kelp]

[stark karma]

early game is the most important

[clear mulch]

[stark karma]

being safe while also getting your econ up is really important

[clear mulch]

Only play high card

100% of the time

[quaint stag]

ante 1 round 1 fail 💔

[past locust]

I KNEW IT

I CALLED IT

🦼😭😭

[obsidian patrol]

just switch suits

[lunar zealot]

i'm hearing kids sing minions shit

But like at least it's not 67 and italian brainrot and shit

so i'm fine with it

[lapis sierra]

better than italian brainrot 🥀

[vale wharf]

Is hiker a good joker?

[lapis sierra]

I mean.. so, so.

[late kelp]

its good early game if you keept it, and im pretty sure it retrigers with chad and hack

[late kelp]

not sure on the last part

[lunar zealot]

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

it's good if you have chad i guess

and on specifically abandoned

[late kelp]

why only on abandoned, cause of lower chip value overall?

[lunar zealot]

because small decks benefit more from hiker

as in low amount of cards in a deck

because you can draw the hike'd cards more often and hike them even more

Hiker is fiiiiine

[royal shale]

bets?

[lapis sierra]

im calling yes

[pale wolf]

hiker best deck if you win every 1st hand is 5 card big

[shell dagger]

It’s good on plasma

[royal shale]

[lapis sierra]

[royal shale]

[gaunt temple]

what is the 67 nonsense?

[hardy jackal]

my brainrot is better than your brainrot

[lunar zealot]

Yes because italian brainrot is ai slop and has roots in hate speech

[past locust]

I don't think ill need the FIB😭

Well for against the club anyways

[floral mural]

basically no origin made to bait out a trend

[novel moss]

Can confirm it does reactivate on retriggers.

[vale wharf]

How do I explain photochad to a beginner?

[tall sky]

take your base mult, and octuple it

and ask them to imagine a joker that does x8

[clear mulch]

dont

[lunar zealot]

a great choice if you're struggling at the game

[vale wharf]

Now I feel bad for using photochad

[past locust]

All my glass broke and left me with normals

[lunar zealot]

photochad is an easy to make easy to use combo that lets you cruise by in terms of scoring while you can use the leeway to get stronger

whether through getting a more reliable build or doubling down on on-scored

[lethal grove]

what do you sell here

[lunar zealot]

probably the holographic idol

[pale wolf]

freeroll! :D

[vale wharf]

vglb!

[lethal grove]

you definitely sell an idol, right?

[vale wharf]

Aw man

[clear mulch]

hio

[vale wharf]

I'm so screwed (I'm playing photochad)

[clear mulch]

the problem is right there

you said it yourself!

[vale wharf]

I did

I rebuke photochad

[clear mulch]

press q 4 times while hovering a joker 😼

[vale wharf]

Hmm?

I'm on mobile

[proper bronze]

never play photochad smh

[vale wharf]

GbL!

[hybrid tendon]

I agree with photochad hate, but you can't deny that it's strong when it works

[hybrid tendon]

I'm a lesbian

[clear mulch]

[clear mulch]

im gonna get angry like that one song grrrrr yes i am a nerd

[proper bronze]

we need 146 more lesbians

[hybrid tendon]

Yeah, but how big

[signal frigate]

Did you go Full House?

[clear mulch]

✅✅✅✅✅✅

[vale wharf]

[signal frigate]

If so, how big is full house

[vale wharf]

No, I have a 2 polyglass queen of hearts, and I was really banking on those

[signal frigate]

How long have you had it?

[vale wharf]

Since ante 4

[signal frigate]

Probably the fuckin squared then

[clear mulch]

the unconsistency between the capitalization in the nicks is evilish

[signal frigate]

This is why we scale the fuckin scale jokers.

[hybrid tendon]

Evil lesbians

[signal frigate]

You could've won that run off of pants being like 60 mult by now

[torpid veldt]

😈

[royal bobcat]

like that one song?

[signal frigate]

Because you don't need to sell any jokers

[royal bobcat]

yet still not enough

[vale wharf]

Yeah 😔

[signal frigate]

But yeah, it's either square or Pants but I'm going with square

Nevermind

[clear mulch]

thhaats what im saying

[signal frigate]

All of them are fuckin eternal

i wasn't expecting it to be noticed in here

[vale wharf]

Ik ik, I got consumed by sloth after getting the polyglassqueens

[clear mulch]

coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb

[pale wolf]

As far as I know all of the bugged seeds for erratic have 10S

[signal frigate]

There's several erratic seeds aren't there?

[royal bobcat]

thats quite surprising methinks

[torpid veldt]

10 of spades?

[signal frigate]

Is that really the only bugged erratic seed?

[pale wolf]

yea theres a few

[pale wolf]

there are a few bugged seeds, but they all have the same card in the deck

[hybrid tendon]

Hehee I'm just that good, I love ptite soeur, so ofc I listened to femtogo and the album

[signal frigate]

Good to keep in mind, you probably still win by spamming either a full house or two pair though

[hybrid tendon]

Okay going back to work, bai chat

[royal bobcat]

bye very gay lesbian lace

[pale wolf]

I don't believe it's possible to actually have a bugged erratic seed with any other card than 10 of spades but i dont know for sure

[proper bronze]

bye

[signal frigate]

I would think it'd be possible to have a different card

[vale wharf]

Twas a good run

[signal frigate]

Like all 2's or sumn

[pale wolf]

sarcasm

[tender quarry]

Serious surely

I will report this to the mod team

[proper bronze]

[pale wolf]

the "tone indicator" mess people got themselves into now started from people using markdown syntax for indicating sarcasm

[vale wharf]

There is no merry andy art

[clear mulch]

thr fuck why have you been playing balatro for 42 hours

just why

[tender quarry]

But same as normal really except getting into multiplayer a bit more

[narrow wadi]

not turning my computer off overnight

[pale wolf]

actually, I was wrong, it's not even a seed, it's a custom challenge deck that gives all 10 spades

[clear mulch]

..twice?

[pale wolf]

I feel like if they were going to do a a custom challenge they should have done some other rank besides the one already represented by bugged seeds

[tender quarry]

This is a lie actually I don't repress the urge at all

[hasty harness]

[heavy heron]

i actually took a polychrome skip by accident ante 1 and got a polychrome astronomer ❤️

[narrow wadi]

i restart the game if performance drops off, it's fine rn

[clear mulch]

wow you must have smth thats not cheap.... impossible!!!!!

😨

[tender quarry]

To be honest I think anyone good at the game can get good at multiplayer quite quickly

[narrow wadi]

it's a 3 year old laptop (a dell, not a gaming laptop) i didn't bring my pc when i moved to japan

i might buy a new pc soon

[clear mulch]

okay maybe its just my laptop

[pale wolf]

for sure

[clear mulch]

maybe i should smash it till it breaka

[tender quarry]

Like I could have probably made a top 10 or higher push in the season that just ended but just didn't have the motivation to grind ranked that much

[tender quarry]

Still ended #24 on 74% though so pretty good

[pale wolf]

is bean really that good

[heavy heron]

honestly it’s not that easy; the hardest part of multiplayer is mentally adjusting to the fact that your goal isn’t to beat the next blind requirement, it’s to literally prepare yourself for the highest score possible by ante 8 (or 5) even if that means purposely dying to make money because death =/= losing

[proper bronze]

Bean is good, but not the best

Probably top 20 best players (not a lock though), not top 10

[polar talon]

Don't ask me how I won, it was the will of our Lord Jesus Christ. I now have the plasma deck

[proper bronze]

hey guys i'm a beginner, is my deckfixing good? tell me to improve something if i can!

[calm epoch]

congrats 🔥

[hardy fable]

yeah I wonder what's the best joker

[serene forge]

no you deckfixex the hearts

[pale wolf]

i was impressed by bean getting a single player wr and it made me reevaluate things, does he just have more time to play relative to those in the skill bracket

[hardy fable]

oh bean the player

[calm epoch]

no blue seals ggs, death in the next ante incoming

[proper bronze]

i didn't have bloodstone

[tender quarry]

I think bean just is used to playing very very fast but to be honest I haven't watched the WR speedrun video

[serene forge]

doesn't matter deckfixing hearts = bad

well actually no heart faces are good because amogus

[calm epoch]

my fav ong

[polar talon]

hearts are goods 👀🔥

[tender quarry]

Everytime I watch him both on stream I think it's ADHD gameplay and that he could slow down a little

[calm epoch]

his calculations are sped up to 4x, thats how hes pulling it off

[cloud sinew]

who is this about

[serene forge]

I remember in high school we played amogus in spanish class and there would always be a kid screaming "sospechoso" at the top of his lungs

[pale wolf]

does he just not upload losses as vid content

[calm epoch]

LMAO 😭

[polar talon]

[pale wolf]

the bean

[cloud sinew]

tbf with andy and 6 discards already you can see all of your deck

[calm epoch]

[tender quarry]

Dying to make money is pretty fake in almost all scenarios, life count is pretty important for flexibility and how much you can greed in future (plus idol, bloodstone can decide to screw you)

But that aside I don't think the adjustment is too bad from making the consistent play to making the strong play

[torpid veldt]

beginner trap

[pale wolf]

okayyyyyyyy

[tender quarry]

Kinda? I'm not sure if it's something he particularly goes out of his way to do though or if he just wants to make his good games/streaks into content

[clear mulch]

i dont even remember playing this

[calm epoch]

i mean, bus is guaranteed improvement, brainstorm is gambling towards a good joker in the future

[calm epoch]

blueprint

[tender quarry]

Also he's by far the best multiplayer person in MLB which helps

[hasty harness]

idk but im always taking bus on gs

over blueprint/brainstorm

[calm epoch]

ngl i'd too

[hasty harness]

shop 1

[serene forge]

I hate Baron

[tender quarry]

Like I love Edzy while Roffle and Zaino definitely know what they're doing but none of them are on Beans level

[calm epoch]

well it only makes sense if ur in shop 1, i'd maybe switch priorities after ante3

[hasty harness]

well duh

[tender quarry]

Hopefully Vagabond makes MLB next season though, he's chill and is definitely close to bean skillwise

[torpid veldt]

same ngl

why the fuck did you not take it

clearance sale is goated fr

[hasty harness]

because 1 it isnt my gameplay and 2

i wouldnt take it even if it was mine

💀

just cuz u see voucher doesnt mean buy it

they still had another shop before they would be NEEDING to buy it

[calm epoch]

+1 level to highcard

[hasty harness]

if they wanted 2

clearance sale most overrated voucher

[robust lance]

Think about it

[serene forge]

*7

[heavy heron]

i don’t mean dying for the $4 for death, i mean accepting a defeat and spending said rounds on rebate and money jokers and gold and seals— this happens very often

not only that but again, the way you play multiplayer is just very different— you’ll be replacing obelisks and trios with dusk and idols, something you’d never do in actual game

[robust lance]

5 if you can haggle some more

[torpid veldt]

it's 25%

[hasty harness]

like taking clearance sale round 3 will cripple ur economy for minimal gain

[serene forge]

that's liquidation idot

[robust lance]

I thought you blocked me (I didn’t actually lmao)

[hasty harness]

reroll voucher and some other vouchers are just better

i want a gup joker in balatro

[torpid veldt]

i want a good baron version in balatro

[robust lance]

But like why 💔

[torpid veldt]

like x1.5 for every card

[heavy heron]

barons apply last in scoring no matter what

[pale wolf]

for sure lol

[potent tree]

good morning once again balatronians

how many uncommon jokers is that

[robust lance]

If you use petreoglyph you can actually find me in balatro

[pale wolf]

3.76 million bbc and no uncommons

[torpid veldt]

why did the redditor take baron over mime? because baron tastes better than mime

[pale wolf]

i crack an egg and inside is ur moms heart, a fortune cookie, and a wishbone
which do i break first

[wanton oracle]

The boss is amber so i dont really need the chicot

[tender quarry]

I mean going for money to the point where winning the round becomes difficult in general and dying is bad in multi. You want to greed as much as possible for econ short of this, but the lives are not really worth just sacrificing outside of pretty specific instances

[hasty harness]

what is sock and chad doing for u unless u have a lot of enchancement btw

?

[robust lance]

Nah mimes taste better
They taste like licorice and I like that

[calm epoch]

nah that ones not even close to being correct, the reason why they took baron is because theyre gay

[robust lance]

That makes much more sense

[torpid veldt]

baron looks tastier which is false

[wanton oracle]

Literally found zero value jokers so theyre just there

[hasty harness]

lol

[torpid veldt]

i taste like WHAT

[pale wolf]

ive been calling baron bay-ron for the past few days

[robust lance]

Licorice

[tender quarry]

Replacing trio or other flat xMult with Idol, retriggers, etc isn't something you'd do in normal play bit also the principles behind it are obvious to any good player who's learnt to look at the game mathematically at all and it's not a hard adaptation

[pale wolf]

anise

[calm epoch]

gay-ron

[torpid veldt]

gay ron

[pale wolf]

i think the spending lots of money rerolling in shop is unintuitive/dont know when is best to do it

but i guess thats more prevalent without The order

[atomic trout]

Not spending the rerolls is an achievement 🤣

[distant vault]

I cooked

[clear mulch]

how many times should i play a hand before starting to scale obelisk?

[robust lance]

Credit card carry

[robust lance]

8+

[atomic trout]

Just wait until Ante 12 Small Blind

[tender quarry]

I think even in the multiplayer community most people undervalue early rolls with order on

[pale wolf]

depends on how brave you are (the circumstances)
12 is good

[distant vault]

I don't go past ante 8

[robust lance]

Based

Me too

[clear mulch]

im the unbravest so maybe 50

😂

[pale wolf]

nah 15 is plenty

[robust lance]

Nah you’re braver than you think

[atomic trout]

Awww. It's fun to reach Ante 12. It's also one of the Jokers to unlock

[robust lance]

You can do a 10 hand

[clear mulch]

aw

[tender quarry]

I'm big on the idea of thinking about turn advantage - "how many turns before my opponent sees the same thing and catches up in queue"

[calm epoch]

w

[pale wolf]

and when i say 15 i mean 15 above ur pair/high cards usually

[tender quarry]

And then "how do I get ahead of my opponent in turn advantage"

[distant vault]

I just dislike how fast it scales so I call it quits after winning

[atomic trout]

High card 👑

[tender quarry]

(Usually means find econ early somehow if you can)

[distant vault]

Twins

[lament bronze]

you mostly want to play pairs anyways unless you've got supernova (only who can get perishable sticker btw) you can do obelisk easily

[tender quarry]

12 is high if anything as a baseline tbh

[coarse flower]

my body is a machine that turns ante 1 brainstorm into ante 2 loss

[atomic trout]

White Stakes is hard. I always lose to Ante 9 Green Stakes

[calm epoch]

me too, triples

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[distant vault]

🙏 🙏 🙏

[calm epoch]

i think hornet hates bloodstone

[lament bronze]

its high for anyone who truly knows what obelisk can do, but when its a matter of teaching people how to use it, its on the safe side

[calm epoch]

just a guess

[tender quarry]

That's fair

[robust lance]

What if there was an option to add blood to it to make it stronger (not increase chances though)

[atomic trout]

1 in 2 chances it beats on a heart card

[tender quarry]

12-15 is comfortable and I'll often end up in that area but you can get away with like 7-9

[pale wolf]

oh yeah I wouldn't say 12 to someone asking me what i think the best time to scale obelisk is

[atomic trout]

Give it more mult

[pale wolf]

andolth likes doing 8 obelisk stacks

[robust lance]

You can do like a 6 hand obelisk or something cause you’re cracked

[clear mulch]

i lost anyways

[pale wolf]

rip

[clear mulch]

😁

[tender quarry]

Really it's just "as late as possible" though

[robust lance]

Don’t worry me too

I fumble obelisks so hard it looks like I’m intentionally throwing

[tender quarry]

Which can mean a lot of different things depending on the run

[atomic trout]

Scales x1.5 Each hit

[pale wolf]

yeah there's rarely a reason beyond fun to do a stack below 10

[floral mural]

the risk with obelisk isnt getting the stacks for me its mostly getting the chips joker to make the pivot viable

[atomic trout]

Does anyone have any guesses on how Matador will be buffed?

[tender quarry]

I don't think the chips joker is essential, but it does help

[pale wolf]

why risk it if you could just
play 1 more round and be guaranteed

[atomic trout]

Especially on plasma deck

[robust lance]

10 dollars and triggers more often

[floral mural]

i do my obelisk pivots around ante 4/5 not really based on hand count

personally

[atomic trout]

I say $20

You're sacrificing a turn

[robust lance]

Greedy

[pale wolf]

timing matters too and ofc which hand the stack is and lots of other things

[atomic trout]

The power of money is insurmountable

[pale wolf]

on gold stake ive had obelisk stacks for every base hand except full house and strush before

[tender quarry]

Yeah, I'm much more comfortable with a low stack in flushes or 2 pair than a low pair stack

[pale wolf]

and 4oak

forgor about 4oak

[wanton oracle]

Seed is TBNXM2R6 dont know what the second soul gives

[atomic trout]

Unless you have Vagabond and multiple credit cards.

[pale wolf]

credit card is mid at best with vaggle imo

[floral mural]

i am aware starting when your obelisk hits 16 or something is better but on ante 3 id not need the xmult so I like waiting for ante 4

[proper turtle]

poly cavendish looks so good and erratic deck is amazing when it wants and shit when it wants lol

[pale wolf]

either way ye

[calm epoch]

tbh that combo works the best at green deck since no interest

[pale wolf]

late as you can if its just for consistency

[calm epoch]

then maybe i'd count credit card mid+

[pale wolf]

You still kind of want to have $20 because of hermits

[calm epoch]

true-

[pale wolf]

by the end of the round of course

[pale wolf]

people that use vagabond to entirely replace the shop phase are doin it wrong

[atomic trout]

Thanks 👍

[tender quarry]

nebula vagabond is probably super annoying

[calm epoch]

makes the win like 2x easier to obtain tho, thats a fact

[pale wolf]

me personally maybe not

[floral mural]

vagabond is a deckfixing tool thats why you take it personally

[atomic trout]

I use it for a campfire

[robust lance]

I use firewood for a campfire…

[pale wolf]

nebula could get removed from the game and I wouldn't notice for weeks

[robust lance]

If not myself

[atomic trout]

But instead of wood. It's tarot and useless Jokers

[floral mural]

you generate so much tarots hermits temperance and devils come in fast to make up your lost money and you also get a better deck too

i wouldnt want vaga nerfed

ngl

[atomic trout]

And it's easier with Ante 1 rocket

[tender quarry]

There's part of me that wants to optimise Nebula, learn to play it as much as possible and actually figure out how good it is

But most of me just doesn't want to play Nebula

[calm epoch]

was vaga a tarot card per hand played with less than 4$ or a tarot card per round or sth

[clear mulch]

hand

[calm epoch]

oh ok thats good

[pale wolf]

what if there was a wood consumable and it dose nothing but scale campfire 20 times at once :D subscribe for more daily balatroncepts

[floral mural]

optimising it feels like just learning to use telescope which isnt that hard

[atomic trout]

Isn't Nebula with the telescope and less consumable?

[pale wolf]

it just sounds... boring 🦓

[clear mulch]

how balatroze sounds to me

It probably isn't too bad but there's questions like how much to prioritise the hands early (or indeed mostly at all) to take celestials early

optimize anaglyph instead

I'm prob not taking it anyways

[atomic trout]

I feel like you're copying hearts

[tender quarry]

I've done a lot of Anaglyph optimisation

[cosmic maple]

It's too expensive

[tender quarry]

It's a cool deck 🙂

[cosmic maple]

Yup

[tender quarry]

Pretty underrated too actually

[cosmic maple]

Why?

[atomic trout]

Good luck on the Plant too 🤣👑

[robust lance]

How to optimize Anaglyph
1: get the card sleeve mod
2: use Anaglyph sleeve on Anaglyph deck (exclusively)

Bam optimized

[hasty harness]

this joker lineup is truly one oat

[cosmic maple]

I agree

[atomic trout]

Use all seven Double tags on high card leveling

[tender quarry]

There was a time that my Streak PB was 19 on Anaglyph

[cosmic maple]

[robust lance]

Optional

[floral mural]

im gonna assume youre copying like hearts or something with dna and if so dont. copying anything that isnt enhanced in some way with dna is a bad idea

[cosmic maple]

NO, I HATE THAT THING

[calm epoch]

woa

[robust lance]

Ssshhhhhh

[red thistle]

What's your PB streak ever.

[atomic trout]

Not enough money

[pale wolf]

alot

[atomic trout]

Double tags LOL

[tender quarry]

I think skipping with double tags is just really good at solving certain issues (obviously econ, but also long term value with standard packs, Buffoon packs solving most issues, D6 and Coupon just giving a lot of value)

[cosmic maple]

It's my run I don't care if copying is a bad idea here/lh/nm

@proper turtle your name reminds me of that one time the avgn reviewed tattoo assassins

a shame that I had to play a 3oak as my winning hand but didn't deck fix much (its funny because I played every other round with a 4oak)
