[austere dune]

You lied and I lost

[austere dune]

Take the bus^2

[jagged cliff]

Skip angle

[distant vault]

Chaos!!!

Always skip

[white zodiac]

oh of course

[jagged cliff]

Yknow what, skip and then skip all skipable blinds

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[serene forge]

:(

[austere dune]

Yeah I’m pretty pissed

[serene forge]

here win

[pale wolf]

and maybe in the diamond instead of a circle

[austere dune]

I shoulda Js went full gamble

[pale wolf]

[sacred trench]

Biggest hand

[terse vale]

[lost vault]

mmmm cheap pretzels

[sacred trench]

Hmm?

[white zodiac]

make it do the animation as well

[trim anchor]

there should be season jokers

[lost vault]

i am eating cheap pretzels rn

[wintry ice]

guess this works

[distant vault]

🔥 🔥

[white zodiac]

i used to do that all the time during study hall

[lost vault]

im in a study hall but my ass is not studying

[white zodiac]

oh boy

[tepid skiff]

rawr

[sacred trench]

Scary face! RUN!

[wintry ice]

bro is in a
hall

[lost vault]

true

[lost vault]

rawr~

[white zodiac]

it’s packed in the library this time around

finals week ofc

[wary zodiac]

i keep getting fucked over by confusingly bad luck and its starting to get frustrating 💔

[wintry ice]

ight so do i do an u-turn and sell green man for square supernova

[white zodiac]

i prob won’t

[cloud sinew]

@lost vault theres a bean like 200 cards deep into a24 😭 holy shit

[wintry ice]

it interferes less with faceless so like

idk

[lost vault]

is that too late

[cloud sinew]

not too late just

would have to be less +handsize because it's too risky to swap out baron/mime/bp/bs for that

[wintry ice]

lilo do i do this

[lost vault]

true

[cloud sinew]

uhhhh

[white zodiac]

all ik is that doc would take nova and drop grimbuh

[cloud sinew]

how many pairs

[lost vault]

but it still could be quite a lot of handsize!!

[cloud sinew]

yes

[lost vault]

:3

[cloud sinew]

also a16 can be crimson cause retcon before then so you can still force a few juggler/troub hits

[lost vault]

i forgot crimson bean isnt strictly bean

somehow

[white zodiac]

i’m leaning towards yes if nova is more than grimbo

[cloud sinew]

stuntman a3 means that juggler would be +3 per 2 hands and troub would be +4 per 2 hands

[white zodiac]

i’d take it

[cloud sinew]

id take it

[lost vault]

isnt stuntman solo only doable ante 8 tho

[white zodiac]

2 rounds of faceless can offset the nova purchase

[cloud sinew]

uhhh

you can get red seal steel for then

[lost vault]

oh

right right

[cloud sinew]

i just dont know if thats enough without copy jokers

[lost vault]

well uhm

[cloud sinew]

wait

[lost vault]

with burglar maybe

[cloud sinew]

ya

[wintry ice]

yeah the other reason why i wanna switch is because i don't want double rental

[white zodiac]

yeah i didn’t look at the rounds left on faceless initially

[lost vault]

do u gain 2 handsize with stuntman alone or does there have to be another handsize joker

[distant vault]

God damnit chicot

[cloud sinew]

gains 2 on its own

[lost vault]

sick

[cloud sinew]

and then juggler is +1 every 2 on top of that

troub is +2, bean is +5

[lost vault]

ye i remember bean

[pale wolf]

bean what

[lost vault]

i hope this bug never gets patched

[cloud sinew]

bean shopping

[lost vault]

its not like it affects the main game at all

[dark cairn]

wow ante 2 antimatter

this is truly a yellow deck moment

[pale wolf]

you were shopping? (noun)

[cloud sinew]

bitches be shopping

its me im bitches

[pale wolf]

shopping for britches

[white zodiac]

gonna need a few stitches

[pale wolf]

You can't say that around Lilo

[white zodiac]

[pale wolf]

It's derogatory

[lost vault]

petrichor v

[lost vault]

is this the best song in the ost chat

[terse vale]

hmm which song

[lost vault]

petrichor v

[dry harness]

Can to the moon stack if you dupe it via invisible joker?

[lost vault]

the answer is no

but its awesome

[lost vault]

yeah

[cloud sinew]

yes

[dry harness]

Ty

[cloud sinew]

@lost vault you can get a +5 bean on a16 but it's 251 cards deep 😭

[lost vault]

is that worth

:3

[cloud sinew]

theres 2 fucking nat negatives that ante before bean and one of them is rebate lmao

[cloud sinew]

uhhh hold on i think so but i wanna see how many rolls youd need

cause you get overstock a7

[lost vault]

ye

[lost vault]

insane

[cloud sinew]

uhhh youd need 81 rolls ante 16 to find turtle bean

this does not include the "rolls" you get from entering shops

wait

[vocal rain]

hello

[cloud sinew]

idk how to communicate it well

[vocal rain]

what to do

[proper turtle]

beating violet vessel feels good

[cloud sinew]

youd need 84 sets of "card resets" but each shop does one already, so 81 rolls
so then thats 27 rolls per shop if you spread it out for least price

[lost vault]

seems worth

well

if parking money is enough

[white zodiac]

81 rerolls in 3 shops with overstock

is what i understand

[vocal rain]

.

[ripe gull]

I spent $80k for 1 bean before

Weak

[ripe gull]

CB is very op

[lost vault]

mhm

[ripe gull]

Even 1 tick should be enough for like an extra $30k

[cloud sinew]

youd need $1125

to spend on rolls

[ripe gull]

Oh that's nothing

[cloud sinew]

yeah

thats very easy to get for a16

[lost vault]

pog

[cloud sinew]

you can get stuntman + burglar + blueprint + brainstorm & a +5 bean for crimson a16

[ripe gull]

Less easy for a16 due to needing seance setup maybe

Still should be free

I'd bean not possible a8?

[cloud sinew]

theres an ecto from a sixth sense very early as well as a red seal

[ripe gull]

Much better for a8 cuz u can score easier

[cloud sinew]

not possible really

theres no heiro or dcut within a8 and it's not crimson a8

[ripe gull]

On good seeds smth like $4k pre a8 is not hard

Oh its not ch rip

I can check it out a bit when I get home

[cloud sinew]

hone... balatro...

[ripe gull]

Balanto...

[cloud sinew]

but you can get red seal steel for a16 so it should be fine

[ripe gull]

Is there like anything that stands out of the seed otherwise

Any good money makers early

[delicate tide]

Prob like delayed and Andy

#1 money maker

[ripe gull]

That is not money makers early :p

[cloud sinew]

chad and golden ticket are very easy to get early on that seed

[delicate tide]

Mb that’s like some late game tech

[ripe gull]

Midas anywhere near a1 or a2

[cloud sinew]

earliest one that's even close to being reasonable is a midas a5

but theres a midas a6 thats very easy to get

[ripe gull]

Ehhh by that point its too late

Will just have to work with devil red seal and death it a bunch

If its really bad enough might need to go ghost for cryptids

Snowball might make up for bad deck cuz CB

[south palm]

Should i take banana?

[ripe gull]

No

[proper turtle]

if smiley was not eternal

[cloud sinew]

are you meaning to like

insure a16 survival?

[unborn cliff]

DUDE

[ripe gull]

for money

[unborn cliff]

IM CRYING

HOLY FUCK NO WAY

[ripe gull]

ig maybe u dont need as much

[unborn cliff]

CAVENDISH JUST DIED IN 1 ROUND

LOLLLLL

[ripe gull]

im just used to farming like $8k

[ripe gull]

peak

[cloud sinew]

you definitely dont need that much, you only need $1125 at ante 16 if you roll 27 times per shop

[latent egret]

round 3 cavendish death is real

[ripe gull]

yea i forgot how boring seeded is sometimes

[latent egret]

sadly has happened to me

[ripe gull]

im used to like dreamo farming or farming like 4k pre endless just for magic trick rerolling

[latent egret]

my only cav death

[cloud sinew]

getting as many red seal steels before crimson a16 while keeping $1125 is definitely a lot to optimise though

[lost vault]

now your can get the secret mega cavendish joker

[unborn cliff]

x30 mult 1 in 10000 chance to go extinct

[compact halo]

[cloud sinew]

happened to me once...

[compact halo]

I had a perishable cavendish die before

Peak pain

[manic zealot]

it sure is an event when cavendish goes extinct

[unborn cliff]

stickerless gros michel: dies in 2 rounds

rental/perishable michel: immortal for some reason

[south palm]

I Lost lol

Seed btw

JBQKJN98

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[weak harbor]

multiple thousands of dollars trying to get a mime this run

[manic zealot]

ouch

hopefully one shows up lmao

[brisk mango]

We should beat the shit out of you.

[unborn cliff]

@manic zealot do not dislike my message.

[unborn cliff]

rude

[brisk mango]

Be funny then

[unborn cliff]

how

[brisk mango]

Don't do that meme for first

Then uuhh

I dunno

[signal frigate]

I prefer 21

[manic zealot]

I just instinctively retch when I see 67 but that might be just a me thing

[unborn cliff]

61

[cloud sinew]

35

[signal frigate]

This was still annoying but I had a build up to the punchline

[unborn cliff]

6 x 7 - 1 is 41 btw

67, 61, 41

the big 3

[pale wolf]

whats 9 plus

[unborn cliff]

2

[cloud sinew]

minecraft

[unborn cliff]

roblox

[signal frigate]

67's just yelling a number and forcing it to be funny

It's like tickling someone and calling yourself a comedian

[unborn cliff]

thats what all the number memes are

56

76

122

43

12

[shell dagger]

8 streak

[signal frigate]

21 does fall under that category but AT LEAST the origin is funny

[shell dagger]

122 is funny tho

[unborn cliff]

21 had a buildup

the buildup now is just "67 is funny so this other number is also funny"

same thing with all the niche memes from a while back

purple plate and totr and that bullshit

[signal frigate]

Which is ashame

It had to be brought up

Because of a stupid crypto kid yelling that

[signal frigate]

What the fuck are these

Are we just forcing shit to be funny now? Is that modern memes?

[unborn cliff]

"niche memes"

these are from like 3 months ago

[signal frigate]

Welp, glad I ain't aware of them, I've never heard of those

[unborn cliff]

people would make up a random phrase and call it niche

chicken stars

[signal frigate]

I think they're right since how come I wasn't aware those were memes?

I've never seen them

[unborn cliff]

shrug

[signal frigate]

But ye, TikTok seems to like making memes every goddamn hour

It's oversaturated

[unborn cliff]

new meme: mongolian throat singing

[signal frigate]

This is kind of funny though

I like using it in edits

[compact halo]

Look at that. The stories write themselves don’t they.

[signal frigate]

No they're left

[compact halo]

Too late

Unfortunately

[signal frigate]

Wasn't, just in time

[compact halo]

My scorecard isn’t picking up the play

[signal frigate]

I sent it at the same time as you edited it

[compact halo]

Might need an instant replay

[signal frigate]

That's not possible

[compact halo]

Then I guess I win

[signal frigate]

High card spam build fr

[compact halo]

ggwpgonext

Yeah. Big fan of that shit

[pale wolf]

if a bunch of stories fell over, they could right themselves and be perfectly grammatically correct

[compact halo]

No they’re left

Oh

I didn’t even finish reading

:/

[pale wolf]

😎

[compact halo]

My face when me when mfw (‘y face when) face when

[pale wolf]

my mfw when

[tired kestrel]

What in the world is this spread

[compact halo]

Peak

[idle haven]

holy clutch

[tired kestrel]

Dog you have neptune on the graph its so over 😭

Earth above venus and mars is diabolical too

And jupiter being so high is wild too

OFc that pluto is messed up too

[compact halo]

I think you’re missing the elephant in the room

[tired kestrel]

Me when i don't prepare against the plant and have to highroll

[compact halo]

Which is a very clear signifier of how I play this game

[idle haven]

i only spent 8 bucks to win which were for 2 standard packs for holo

[tired kestrel]

Don't get me wrong thats also fucked up but i feel like neptune not being last is worse

[compact halo]

I’ve gotten c++ twice

This is just my phone

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[compact halo]

Tru

[pale wolf]

why would Neptune be last

when earth exists

[tired kestrel]

When in the world are you playing straight flushes

[compact halo]

I think they mean last in general like not even on the list

[pale wolf]

also this doesn't show all of the planets

[white zodiac]

fr

[tired kestrel]

YEah i mean last overall not just on the graph

[pale wolf]

secret hands don't come up that often

[white zodiac]

i don’t count them

[tired kestrel]

Surely they come up more often than straight flushes

[signal frigate]

The elephant in the room is having Earth this big

[pale wolf]

:p

[white zodiac]

how could you

[signal frigate]

I probably deserve death for mine because I also have Earth super high

But Duo+Trio is my favorite hand combo fr

[tired kestrel]

damn ok nvm even i have neptune on my shit

[compact halo]

Why is this the way I’m finding out people don’t know how to force full houses

[signal frigate]

Look at my graph.

[compact halo]

Oh I see

Based<3

Stupid phone

[white zodiac]

i know how i just ask myself why

[compact halo]

[white zodiac]

[tired kestrel]

hmm i wonder what my perfered playstyle is

[compact halo]

Because if you can deckfix for a two pair build, then why aren’t you deckfixing for a fh build

Invest in earth early like a real gambler and win. Easy

[white zodiac]

because it requires more work

streak arc ruined me

[compact halo]

Could never

[shell dagger]

if im playing 2 pairs i still have a mult scaler like red card or trousers and the chips from uranus are fine

[compact halo]

Get too bored

[brazen island]

because full house is useless garbage

[compact halo]

Yeah but yeah but yeah but

[shell dagger]

This run could’ve easily been a working full house run though

[signal frigate]

Again, I just had an unusual amount of runs where Duo and Trio was present

[shell dagger]

I just set up 5oak quick enough

[compact halo]

Foak

[white zodiac]

venuts when it practically has the same scaling

[signal frigate]

I know, I just liked Earth

[pale wolf]

im burning "it"

[shell dagger]

The best 6th sense ever (gave 2 immolates from the first 2 6s)

[pale wolf]

and by "it", heh, lets jsut say, my venits

[white zodiac]

but but by it i meant my nuts

[shell dagger]

veanus

[red thistle]

Penus.

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[compact halo]

But I mean like at the end of the day why play anything but high card

[tired kestrel]

What tf is this run

[compact halo]

Me when graph true

[tired kestrel]

booo no brain involved ah strat

[serene forge]

https://github.com/fosterbarnes/balatroGayPenis

[shell dagger]

hrm

[compact halo]

Again, c++ two separate times.

Meow

[tired kestrel]

What does that have anything to do with it

[compact halo]

A lot actually me thinks

[tired kestrel]

???

bruh

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[serene forge]

why would you use hc with photochad

[compact halo]

[idle haven]

genuinely how does this happen

not a single face card first hand

[pale wolf]

what 😭

[serene forge]

22 faces out of 41 cards

reasonable

[serene forge]

this is in the "recommended balatro mods" page on github btw

[pale wolf]

why did these have to be included all in one..

[serene forge]

I just wish it said lesbian instead of gay

[idle haven]

true

[compact halo]

fard

[pale wolf]

im in the top .3% of balatro university students

do you know what what's incredible

[compact halo]

Drunk enough to be feeling quite accomplished with a gold stake e12 given how much time I’ve spent not playing

[pale wolf]

That's the chance of a legendary, or a negative, or polychrome

[summer solstice]

anybody wanna 1v1

im bad tho

[tired kestrel]

Blue seals are obsurd

[crisp bane]

dilemma

[crisp bane]

nice lol

[heady narwhal]

not really

[terse vale]

well I would be looking for Xmult

[white zodiac]

18 more levels and a few modifications until you can replicate this

[terse vale]

or chips

probably chips

[crisp bane]

i have red seal bonus kings

and my brainstorm is foil

chips are fine

[tired kestrel]

Ok thats kinda hype

[terse vale]

howww many

[crisp bane]

a couple

ive been finding face cards for money consistently

cause each face card played is essentially 4 dollars

[terse vale]

well if its only 2 then i’d take dna ya

[crisp bane]

and with red seal thats 8

[lunar zealot]

ello ello

[crisp bane]

my main worry is that killing drunkard will lead me to not be able to find enough face cards in time

[terse vale]

then dna

[white zodiac]

eh

[crisp bane]

also my second worry is uh

[terse vale]

well atleast its copyable

[crisp bane]

i have to obliterate my econ for xmult if i take dna

[white zodiac]

i skip

[pale wolf]

ahoy ahoy

[crisp bane]

hi

[terse vale]

not really I think

185 is pretty good

kinda just seems like you want more face cards for more chips

[white zodiac]

three of your jokers are replaceable

[terse vale]

they said they need drunkard for the security to draw bonus face cards

I would just replace business card

[white zodiac]

do they not have any planets or funds to find any chip jokers for that merit

also if they need drunkard to find the card they want to not die, then using either of these jokers kills them

since it takes up a discard/hand

and a permanent joker slot

[steep iron]

feel black deck vibe

[crisp bane]

i think i am going to die because i cant find xmult

[terse vale]

well you could just discard for one card and get two if you choose dna

[terse vale]

ok this was the other concern ya

[crisp bane]

the only one ive found is vampire which conflicts my current setup

[steep iron]

good synergy with my message

[white zodiac]

what

[terse vale]

you didn’t take it tho right

[steep iron]

i think i found every x mult joker in this run

even flowerpot

[white zodiac]

the flaws of having a slightly above average bootystraps run

[terse vale]

I don’t really think I understood what you were saying

[slate lance]

Idol? Lucky cat? Triboulet? Canio? Yorick

[terse vale]

Dna is basically just more chips and more security in my eyes

[steep iron]

non legendary ofc

[crisp bane]

i died

[slate lance]

Ok then idol and lc too

[crisp bane]

off by 5k

[white zodiac]

they see less of their deck if they use trading card/dna (4 more cards in deck unseen)

[steep iron]

i saw them too

but no space

and lucky cards

[white zodiac]

assuming they need drunkard

[crisp bane]

i was able to play flush five with my red seal bonus kings but i still uh vaporized

[slate lance]

If u have no lucky cards howd u vet lucky cat

It can only spawn after u get lucky cards

[steep iron]

i have lucky cards

but not that much to scale

[slate lance]

Oh kk

[steep iron]

glass joker better synergy with trading card

[slate lance]

I love lucky cards

[terse vale]

ohh

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[terse vale]

I didn’t know how many kings they had either a couple is not really an answer

[manic zealot]

thanks, we had no idea

[white zodiac]

i could’ve unlocked it earlier today

[steep iron]

this run was cool wih cat

also eternal glass again

xd

[white zodiac]

they didn’t really help themselves by not showing their deck or their scoring limit

[manic zealot]

I might need to get the chad jokers mod now lmao

[blissful cedar]

Yall pray for me first violet on purple

[slate lance]

Whats yalls fav enhancement

[white zodiac]

glass

[heady narwhal]

4 common jokers

[terse vale]

steeeel

[blissful cedar]

Steel or glass

[slate lance]

Boooring

Lucky cards >>

[heady narwhal]

gold by far

[steep iron]

every because driver license

[blissful cedar]

Lucky gambling is nice when that 1 in 15 hits

[blissful cedar]

Mmmm

[white zodiac]

how original

[manic zealot]

glass can be a run-saver and I love luckies, but maybe gold cards

[slate lance]

Exactly its the best sensation

[blissful cedar]

Raised fist supremacy

[terse vale]

Steel is my favorite but gold is so goooood just not my favorite

[blissful cedar]

Glass literally carries alone tho

[terse vale]

also was the chance 1/20 once

[slate lance]

Yall overrate gold cards ngl imo
Like they can be rlly good but cmon

[terse vale]

?

[blissful cedar]

Gold is ass

[white zodiac]

u asked for favorites

[terse vale]

whwre am I

[slate lance]

Yes and i will judge

[serene forge]

gold

[steep iron]

i remember i just setting up alot of enhancements for future driver license and THEN this appears

[white zodiac]

they’re the best enhancement currently so what’s the deal

[serene forge]

how

[terse vale]

gold is literally money its pretty baller

[slate lance]

How so

[white zodiac]

money

is versatile

[serene forge]

explain how guaranteed econ is supposedly worse than other things you can get?

[heady narwhal]

bonus > steel and maybe glass imo

[white zodiac]

and is compounding

[terse vale]

with the current meta, its even better

[crisp bane]

okay this run will either flourish or die depending on if the stars align

time to pray

[terse vale]

money is very good in this game

[serene forge]

its dying

[blissful cedar]

Gold has to be the weakest hierophant gives +30 chips which is huge depending on build and you keep the rank stone and any thing that syncs with half joker goes hard

[serene forge]

let's hope you just draw 4oaks

[terse vale]

you have 6 dollars

[heady narwhal]

most pairs-compatible enhancement

[white zodiac]

that can be argued but i use others more

[terse vale]

bait

[white zodiac]

oh you’re on my red seal list that makes sense

[manic zealot]

the moment you get mime or golden ticket or a red seal they get even better

[blissful cedar]

Prove me wrong

[slate lance]

Steel?

[blissful cedar]

Lmao what is the red seal list 😭

[serene forge]

steel is usually very mediocre because it triggers before flat mult jokers

[heady narwhal]

mercury is pretty slow in terms of mult and i'm using scaling +mult 99% of the time with pairs

[slate lance]

Yeah but mime is like a super rare occurenxe

[slate lance]

Ok ig fair then maybe

[tranquil oyster]

ngl with mime and red seal steel cards are almost always significantly better.

[blissful cedar]

Steel goes hard and is way more valuable than gold

[white zodiac]

list of questionable players i take less seriously

dw about it

[blissful cedar]

Gold is good early game and then loses value

[terse vale]

not reallllly

[heady narwhal]

gold cards are way better in endless for a very long time

[terse vale]

my friend group is gonna go crazy over this one

[heady narwhal]

you want to pivot to steel as late as possible afaict

[blissful cedar]

1.5 mult is valuable the entiee game

[tranquil oyster]

maybe, i don't play endless

[manic zealot]

it's just much more consistent than luckies on average if you can draw them, but I absolutely love luckies don't get me wrong

[serene forge]

try doing an endless run without having gold cards after 8 antes

let's see how that works

[heady narwhal]

in that case steel cards are very niche for ante 8

[slate lance]

I just love the gambling rush

Tmrw imma play balatro today i was taking a break

Hitman is so fun

[tulip pond]

?!

[blissful cedar]

I haven't gotten c++ why would i play endless

[heady narwhal]

you need to have a good level and a lot of steel cards and not very much +mult for them to work

[tulip pond]

dog shit ass player in the channel

[terse vale]

lmao

[white zodiac]

whoa

[slate lance]

For funs

[blissful cedar]

Raised fist isnt above 1000 rounds

[serene forge]

steel cards are so good i love getting +5 mult on my level 10 pair

[shell seal]

for fun

[blissful cedar]

Skill issues all around

[shell seal]

[heady narwhal]

they're sometimes veru useful for e.g. getting through heart! but most of the time money is going to do a lot more for uou

[blissful cedar]

Waiting to be proven wrong.

[slate lance]

Raised fist sucks ass im sorry

[terse vale]

well

[serene forge]

no raised fist is fine

but they're wrong as fuck lmao

[slate lance]

Like ok its not super bad

[terse vale]

its mult and thats all it needs to be

[white zodiac]

i like when ppl just say shit here

[slate lance]

But its definitely not the best joker

[heady narwhal]

fist is one of the best common nonscaling +mults imo

[slate lance]

Even for first anyes

[serene forge]

wait is this the person that tried explaining how raised fist is stronger than red card

[blissful cedar]

Glory to the fist

[terse vale]

it kinda works with steel and beyond that its great early game mult

[shell dagger]

saw a reddit post and the comments were slandering this guy for taking eternal raised fist

[blissful cedar]

YOOOO

[white zodiac]

the timing and boss blind issues are very convenient

[blissful cedar]

Link

[terse vale]

never played gold stake ever award (to the commenters)

[blissful cedar]

No it wasnt eternal gold.fist

[serene forge]

i've seen people on reddit get slandered for taking eternal vagabond

[slate lance]

Abstract is better imo
Yes it technically scales ig but its so hard we can basically say its non scaling

[shell dagger]

idk it was 2 weeks ago im not searching for it

[blissful cedar]

I hexed gold fist when i had something else

[royal ore]

10 jokers left to sticker and 4 of them are rares .-.

[blissful cedar]

And it was anhk and hex in the pack

[shell dagger]

fist can be turned on and off without selling jokers

[heady narwhal]

i'd say they're about the same personally

[slate lance]

Run anaglyph and grab a rare tag

[shell dagger]

that alone makes it better

[slate lance]

U can do it

[heady narwhal]

i like conditions

[slate lance]

Ive just had a deep love for abstract its one of my most used

[crisp bane]

it died but now i can relive the bootstraps run

[terse vale]

talk about the actual value of gold cards

[white zodiac]

fist has a lot of fun tech and has a some merit of suit considerations

[heady narwhal]

bootstraps
run's over

[white zodiac]

for specific boss niches

what a surprise

[terse vale]

put the bootstraps down

[slate lance]

How is it tech

Pls tell me

It basically just punishes u for playint higher cards

[royal ore]

fist is just a lot of easy +mult

[terse vale]

I figure you can guess card ranks if cards are flipped upside down

idk

[white zodiac]

i’m not sure if you can understand its utility for someone that’s recently picked up the game

[blissful cedar]

Found it

0 regrets i did lose the run but im just bad

[terse vale]

punishes is a bit harsh
its not even that bad tbh

[white zodiac]

suit sorting on face down card bosses. has a great amount of variable score timing when supplementing steel and determining ranks on cards when playing blind

[slate lance]

I mean i have 273h dude im.not bad

[heady narwhal]

to be fair, you need to have a very high iq to understand raised fist

[white zodiac]

coming from the gold enhancement slander it only makes sense

[slate lance]

Oh ig but still thatd only tell u one card per hand played

[royal ore]

playing a lot doesnt mean you're good

[white zodiac]

only stm players can understand why they steel their clubs first

[blissful cedar]

Figures

[slate lance]

I mean i have c+

And rule bender

Or wtv the 20 challenge achievements called

[white zodiac]

hours doesn’t proportionally determine a players skill level

[royal ore]

because clubs are the best suit

[serene forge]

consumable tierlist

[heady narwhal]

immolate too low

[white zodiac]

they are sorted after spades

[royal ore]

me too, but only because i played alot until i found good runs

[royal ore]

clubs are the best suit still tho

[shell dagger]

wtf is black hole doing that low

[serene forge]

i have a burning hatred for that shit

[slate lance]

I feel like i only rlly did that with plasma and black tho they were pretty hard

[serene forge]

absolute waste of a rare event

[slate lance]

The rest i did relatively easily

[white zodiac]

i think you need more tiers for card shitting spectrals and planets

[white zodiac]

it’s close

[royal ore]

whats so bad about the lovers

[terse vale]

nothing good about it

[white zodiac]

rarity isn’t really strength determining though

[slate lance]

Ectoplasm less than the face card one?

Insane

[serene forge]

it's useful for like 2 jokers while also making you weak to boss blinds

otherwise it's like useless

especially since you'd be using that over one of the better enhancements

[white zodiac]

congrats

[royal ore]

eh fair

[serene forge]

i take familiar sometimes if i just want a stab at gold or lucky cards

ecto is usually unpickable in my experience

[royal ore]

-# but why is wheel in decent though

[fiery nymph]

i agree to the fullest, maybe cryptid higher

[slate lance]

Gambling

[serene forge]

its like buying a planet pack

spend a couple dollars to maybe get a scoring boost

it's not bad

[slate lance]

I take it decently a lot
Mostly to try make space for another sticker recently

[serene forge]

that's definitely reasonable yeah

[white zodiac]

being in the same room as the other card shitters is questionable. as well as almost half of the planets in one tier

[serene forge]

i'm just saying ecto is rarely the winning line in most scenarios

[shell dagger]

last time i took a necessary ecto was for verdant leaf

[slate lance]

Thats fair

[terse vale]

I would say ok cus usually its competing with other tarots in the pack
but when it hits poly or foil it is very very nice

also its luck

[shell dagger]

it wasn’t a necessary decision to make but gave more safety

[serene forge]

tbh i didnt really know how to rank the planets

[royal ore]

so wait

[white zodiac]

probably for how much they actually contribute to scoring in proportion to how easily i can hold blue seals or copy them with the ranks i want

like uranus is low

when it should be higher performance wise

which is weird

it depends on what decks you play

[royal ore]

should i still play ghost deck or should i do the anaglyph rare tag gambling thing or should i do like zodiac or yellow or something
(10 stickers left, 4 are rares)

[serene forge]

ghost

or yellow

[royal ore]

yea

[ripe iris]

im kinda on the fence about medium being excellent, bc its definitely higher than all the ones in the good tier but i wouldnt say its comparable to the rest of the ones in excellent

[royal ore]

im too familiar with ghost

[white zodiac]

also red card

[calm turtle]

Do I pick up invis?

[terse vale]

Its like ante 7 and its black stake have a little funn get rid of dna

[manic zealot]

yeah sell dna

[tranquil steppe]

@marble gorge get cucked amirite?

[acoustic kettle]

It is too good to be anywhere lower though

[ripe iris]

thats fair

[marsh goblet]

i am greed

[shell dagger]

I think hologram is too risky here

If I don’t find +mult in the next shop I am giga dead

[marsh goblet]

first round of ante 2. during ante 1 i took investment tag, made 9 gold face cards during the boss blind, and i have golden joker

[tranquil steppe]

Midas early on is so nice

[shell dagger]

found +mult

[tranquil steppe]

Nice setup!

[white zodiac]

silly little bandaid setup

[shell dagger]

im considering luchador

but my flush isn’t good enough level to drop wrathful

[vocal rose]

holy last hand

[slate lance]

Literal first game after my break and i won

I was doing so horribly yesterday im glad it was just cus i was burnt out

Got 3 stickers too!

Greedy ramen and dusk

[blissful cedar]

Red deck > blue deck blue deck is so overhyped like ugh

[slate lance]

Dude red deck isnt even that good

The benefit isnt THAT much noticeable after blue stake

At least i didnt find jt noticeabke personally

An extra hand is way more impactful than an extra discard

[blissful cedar]

1 discard makes the whole downside of bluetstake negligible

Wrong

There are more jokers that trigger off of disards than hands

[slate lance]

Hand gives extra scaling value extra money and an extra chance at winning

[slate lance]

That doesn't make discards automatically better?

[blissful cedar]

If ur eco is good you get grabber

[slate lance]

U might not get grabber

Theres tons of vouchers which can even repeat

I think

[blissful cedar]

Tell me you've never played indian poker without telling me youve never play indian poker

[slate lance]

What in the fuck is indian poker

This is balatro

[blissful cedar]

Tell me you dont know what your game is based off without telling me you dont know what your game is based off.

Ok im done

[pale wolf]

??? ive read everything thunk has written about balatro and indian poker doesnt come up

[blissful cedar]

Someone started throwing insults earlier and i just went full ragebait mode

Like there was no way

[placid ridge]

Is there a way to check if my run is seeded? I'm continuing a run from my last session but I don't know if I used a seed or not lol

And if it's seeded, I'm just gonna start an unseeded run for more progression

[pale wolf]

if it's seeded, in the pause menu you will see the seed

[placid ridge]

Would I see it on this screen?

[pale wolf]

yea

[placid ridge]

okay, thanks

[marsh goblet]

it turned into a baseball card shoot the moon run

and one of my uncommons was a 1.25x throwback lmao

[lunar zealot]

did someone say baseball

[slate lance]

Guys i did one win off balatro and i lowkey cba to do another

Why am i so bored of balatro :[

[pale wolf]

are you getting challenged

[slate lance]

What

?

[pale wolf]

being challenged i should say

[slate lance]

Whos challenging me

😭

[pale wolf]

the game

[placid ridge]

As in, are you experiencing a nice challenge in the game. Is it posing some difficulty.

Like, not too easy.

[slate lance]

Well yeah im doing goldstake

[blissful cedar]

Mmm

[slate lance]

Im just gonna go to sleep prob its 1:20 am

[pale wolf]

you aren't bored your brain is turning off 🦓

[slate lance]

Maybe 😭

Ive been playing games all day

Not balatro tho

[shell dagger]

3 runs in a row without pair spamming wooo

[hybrid tendon]

american deck

[tender quarry]

Never been done before

[slate lance]

I dont get it what

[shell dagger]

3oak -> 5oak -> flush

[slate lance]

OH

[pale wolf]

no pair build streak next

what deck

[tender quarry]

Checkered

But like that's cheating

[pale wolf]

still blue? checkered? painted?

[shell dagger]

plasma is cheating

i did 5 on plasma with 1 pair run

[pale wolf]

plasma streaking is hard enough as is

[tender quarry]

If we're excluding other easy hands (eg 2 pair, high card), then I'd probably do blue since it enables 3oak lines while just being a good deck

Plasma is another option

[cedar shell]

y e l l o w

[shell dagger]

plasma without 2pair is kinda hard

[cedar shell]

your power is

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[cedar shell]

g r e e n

green ninja became golden ninja, green deck is best gold stake deck confirmed

[sacred trench]

What do y'all think of the jokers I am using

[shell dagger]

good

[shell dagger]

2 best static xmults, the best econ joker

and rebate

[tender quarry]

+100 Social Credit

[shell dagger]

[sacred trench]

Well thank y'all

[pale wolf]

decent

[sacred trench]

Blackboard is strange to use

[shell dagger]

really makes you value dark suit blue seals

[sacred trench]

Sure does

[tender quarry]

Generally you want to play smaller hands with it so you can just use the red cards in your hand

Becomes very easy like that

[sacred trench]

Well I have most red cards changed over

Green deck is not my favorite deck to use

[pale wolf]

decent first two Jokers

[shell dagger]

wiff waff

[kind cloud]

what am i doing

😭

[sacred trench]

Here is my win, not very impressive

I got a 66 dollar egg tho

[pale wolf]

[pale wolf]

waiting for that dagger pivot

[sacred trench]

XD, never

That egg won the round

[vestal sable]

Won my first green stake run!!

[hybrid tendon]

here win

[distant vault]

Congrats

ALONE

[distant vault]

Yes

But brainstorm has cooler art 😎

[zinc willow]

I have a challenge for anyone who's interested

[cyan rain]

blueprint goes with brainstorm also

but if we are saying only alone

blueprint is better

[cyan rain]

what

[distant vault]

Yes bp is better

[zinc willow]

Can you beat ante 18

[cyan rain]

[vestal sable]

[zinc willow]

Oh shit. That one looks fun

I won't beat ya, but that looks fun

[devout stirrup]

i did too many its been playing for 3 minutes on 32x gamespeed and its only a third of the way through animation

god save me

[white zodiac]

do it with a 6 hand cap i’m sure it’s possible

[grim thunder]

Well until you try to get to ante 39 with Perkeo + observatory

[cyan rain]

[devout stirrup]

mod

for gamespeed

[cyan rain]

[devout stirrup]

this one is taking longer than the

500+ planets w observatory

[cyan rain]

damn im mobole

[devout stirrup]

im ngl

[zinc willow]

I got the ADHD not Autism so I suck 😢

[devout stirrup]

its 175 kings triggering 4 times each w 3 baron procs

[grim thunder]

Huh?

[white zodiac]

whuh

[cyan rain]

i THOUHT he was asking about android performance

[opal delta]

im also curious about the optimization

[cyan rain]

its good

no lag either

[devout stirrup]

help

[silent quiver]

Shelby rides the bus

[shell dagger]

the no-pairs streak didn’t last long

[white zodiac]

basically scoring after ante 24 requires some inevitable performance quality dip in terms of heating but it works fine on mobile overall

[grim thunder]

Yeah

[silent quiver]

R u calling me fluffy

[manic talon]

I LOVE BLOODSTONE GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

[cyan rain]

yes

[shell dagger]

bruhstone

[ocean yoke]

3 RUNS IN A ROW WITH A SOUL CARD JUST FOR ME TO FUMBLE OF THEM

holy

[opal delta]

what about the people talking about it draining 1% of their battery every minute

[silent quiver]

Sometimes even bloodstone works

[final bough]

in the shop before this i opened a mega buffoon pack that had 3 foils in it

[silent quiver]

💖💖

[final bough]

i dont even have hone whats happening

[manic talon]

it always works if you play a good deck

[silent quiver]

Did u read what the joker does

[manic talon]

did you see what my deck does

[white zodiac]

expect the same amount of battery drain as any other game that has a pc or console counterpart

[silent quiver]

50/50

Head victim/consistency victim

[devout stirrup]

wait it scored -nan and i didnt win

LOL?

[opal delta]

ive never actually played a game on mobile that has a pc/console counterpart

I dont know what to expect

[silent quiver]

Nan means the number is unable to be calculated so the game cant progress past it

Cant even beat nan with nan its not a number

[devout stirrup]

nah nan clears

its -nan

look

ive done naninf before

it does win

[cyan rain]

prehaps it would happen

[manic talon]

fym consistency victim every hand i play is a hearts flush

[white zodiac]

expect 5 hours of gaming battery at best

[opal delta]

do you have a thing called crt filter

[opal delta]

hmmmm

[manic talon]

oh that is weird, usually its just says naneinf

[opal delta]

cant tell if thats long

[silent quiver]

50/50 without oops

[devout stirrup]

i think its bcause i scored

double naninf

[cyan rain]

i choose a bad phone so i kinda see that but its still decent

[cyan rain]

i dont think so

[silent quiver]

Ah i didnt look very closely

[devout stirrup]

u only need baron mine bp bs and 40-50 red seal kings?

[shell dagger]

-nan happens when mult is nan before multiplied by chips

i think

[devout stirrup]

i had 170ish?

[opal delta]

you dont?

[white zodiac]

it’s above average, i don’t play games a lot on my phone outside of this one so it lasts the whole day for me if i want to

[devout stirrup]

yeah checks out

[cyan rain]

idk how to check neither do i understand my phone much

[shell dagger]

40-50 figure comes from a very specific setup on plasma deck

[tranquil cargo]

so any non-plasma deck naneinf?

[cyan rain]

uts a

vivo y18

[shell dagger]

you needed just under 110 kings here

[devout stirrup]

literally no shot btw

i had naninf on scoring sidebar

halfway through the hand

[devout stirrup]

^

[white zodiac]

so called crimson bean tech

[ripe gull]

bean....

[opal delta]

what phone do you use

[white zodiac]

z fold 6

samsung

[royal orchid]

U stole ma friends phone bru

Im enjoying my Dubai chocolate 🍫

[opal delta]

that sounds expensive

[shell dagger]

3 copy joker means each king is triggering 16 times (steel + baron + 2 copies) * (red seal + base trigger + mime + 1 copy). you need ~1751 1.5x’s to naneinf (2^1024 approx 1.5^1751). 1751/16 is 109.43

[manic talon]

its not like you always need oops, a retrigger does the same thing as one oops

[shell dagger]

the math is there and unless you have some hidden jokers or a level e50 high card, you needed just under 110 kings to naneinf

[royal orchid]

Its like a dola

[white zodiac]

yeah, thankfully it was half the msrp that my company ended up paying for as a gift

battery life stinks compared to an s+ phone

[manic talon]

a phone with a screen that folds sounds like its going to break in a year

[white zodiac]

my phone looks exactly the same a year later

[opal delta]

yeah I heard the folds and flips dont have a great battery life

[white zodiac]

fine condition

it’s good enough for me

[opal delta]

thank goodness im getting an s23+(?)

[upbeat cosmos]

i think im cursed because every time i find a Blueprint I immediately fail the next round 😭

[opal delta]

dont know what to really expect

[white zodiac]

i’m not on my phone gaming too much to the point where i’d be annoyed by it

[white zodiac]

prob 5-6 hours screen on time no worries

[white zodiac]

it’ll last the entire day

[manic talon]

what can you even do with a square screen anyway. like videos and most other stuff is configured to be either landscape or portrait

[white zodiac]

note taking in organic chem

[silent quiver]

That is just not how math works

If u flip a coin twice are u guaranteed ti get heads at least once

A retrigger helps

[white zodiac]

formulas you write and erase are easier to save and optimize for some reactions

[silent quiver]

Bloodstone isnt the wirst joker in the game but it is not love worthy

Not even close

[slow iris]

nice for viewing text

[silent quiver]

A joker that requires specific other jokers to be good is not that good

At least when it comes to consistency

[slow iris]

i'd love to have more vertical space

i kinda hate 16:9

[white zodiac]

some of the ones i’ve saved in other classes are nice for my fold in case i want to pull it up studying for finals like rn. also good to read manga ig

[opal delta]

is that playing balatro the entire time

[white zodiac]

typing kinda sucks yeah

[white zodiac]

i wouldn’t count it for going past 2 hours while confidently saying anymore and experiencing throttling

[silent quiver]

On average bloodstone without hekp gives the slightly less score than 3 steel cards

Which is fine

But thats average

It can give u zero score

[white zodiac]

but i can say one battery cycle can last that long if it’s just balatro

[shell dagger]

vayn knows all this and will use bloodstone anyway

[opal delta]

maybe I should just buy the game and see what happens

[shell dagger]

if u stick around you’ll see
