do NOT slander my boy yorick
Why so queerious ahhh jonkler
Been hatin on y*rick since day uno
yo rick
Doesnt scale enough ion like it
How to make Yorick likeable:
Change it's name to Roll-rick
Sure granted x10 by ante 8 is way too much
Actual lies
1xmult per shop reroll resets every ante
I'm logging off
x.x
that is the most busted joker I have ever heard
chaos the clown eating good tonight

red card and throwback should switch roles and have their numbers tweaked
I hate Bloodstone
it gets funky if you look at this for too long ngl
Oh no the lesbians are multiplying
I swear every few days I find another "very gay lesbian _" here lmfao
I've been here for a while
I'm not always online I might just not have seen you around(also it was a joke)
balatrodle in 4
balatrodle in 4
yeah it's okay lol
1 entire xmult for basically doing nothing is amazing
I hate Bloodstone
Someone needs to put a counter for this
1142
always take
If it isn't trib I'm screwed
it can't be better than madness tho
Only trib helps tho
yes
you finished your run broski
What
nice
run
honey you've barely touched your urn
fibbin archie
straight up fibbin it
crazy
nah steels are better than stinky snova
I had to put Mr. Bones in an urn today 
tried for like a week to win gold stake magic deck then shop 1 poly grimbo saved the day 
6 decks to go for c+
opinion: every joker with a weird card should be distinguishable when flipped, instead of the few that currently are
this would include cards such as:
Brainstorm (One corner is a 90 degree angle and not curved)
Vagabond
Stone Joker
etc.
i cant keep getting away with this (i literally dont need it for this one)
just bought it for fun
Stencil for sure
Golden ticket
I am a balatro
what’s the boss blind
i guess i could go castle because chips are scarce
and it's not eternal so it's not as much of a commitment
goad
i'll take castle because chips
ight
lmao
am i stupid
dies
go figure
naurr
grrrr
maybe abandoned isn't for me...
youll get in the abandoned brain dw
this cannot be
no no no.... this cant... this cant be
always take the spectral
you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take
you never get the incantation + ouija pack if u just reset and forget about it
you didnt miss the shot if you didnt take the shot though 😎
because there was no shot
amputees take notes 📝
I hate Bloodstone
Not worth, right?
the
unlikely
uh yeah this surely helps me game
🙂
I hate Smiley Face
😭
probably should have rolled down
i feel like as if this wasn’t the first time you went into ante 2 without a mult joker
call me crazy
i did go into it with walkie
but i sold it for hexing riff
which almost paid off i guess
it feels so refreshing to play on the lower stakes..
oh
What leaves
walkie
99 bucks it’s the 10 spade seed
legit forgot that the base ante 8 score requirement wasn’t 400,000 on red stake
i assumed so given theyre running 10/4 and arrowhead
ur right
I have a little rendezvous with the president of the white house fellas i’ll be right back
I got 5 stickers in one game
balatro
Just made my last few cards 10s
Obelisk the goat
you can do the thing i did
well i will want to use 4oak or flush house eventually
so
maybe i could go from two pair instead
idk
maybe
Gg
speaking of two pair
Death its like a level 1 cryptid
ight then
i'm guessing i probably don't take acro
bruh
i'm thinking keeping obelisk is safer anyways
I've been trying to get to gold stake on red deck, im at purple rn. I trying to create more confident runs and I think what im buying has largest effect on this. Any advice what to prioritize buying especially in early stage?
Rip
generic scoring or econ
https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1415780753735680151 pages, collection
Is it better to avoid booster packs early or is it worth it for strong deck fixing?
taking buffoon packs is always worth it
It’s better to avoid specifically the ones that give you playing cards early if you need to save your money
you can also take spectral packs
And yes, spectrals and buffoons are worth most of the time
celestial packs might be sometimes necessary early on
We all are
this game is somewhat hard to learn
try to have some form of mult scoring by round 4-5
Would this decrease my actual mult
This is hilarious to look at
Aww that sucks
That would've been funny
Well that's interesting
do i consider scaling pants a little more before pivoting
Don't ask me about the build, even I wouldn't be able to answer it
Greed is the feller of kings
No
i don't think i need obelisk yet
prob prioritize pants first
duhhh
i think i can stop at 36
Green Deck orange stake what y'all doing here gang
taking runner and buffoon
Woah
runnor, and poopcorn if needle/wall
Boss debuffs spades
Which joker deserves a rework? (Without counting Matador)
2
5
Chat is The Order called Order because I feel "ordered" to run straights every time if I can buy it and it's not perishable?
No because the cards are in numerical order
might get gold sticker on 2025 card simulator
Cc?
Was making a joke chill
yep hahah
I will not chill
Splash or Throwback with no skips
Hot take: Straights are the best 5 card hand (for gold stake)
I can agree with that
not a hot take
As a 5 card hand enjoyer they're probably my favorite hand
very luke warm
I love straights as they have some of the best scaling and stuff like shortcut and four fingers, as well as runner and the order (I love the order a lot), and I found it easiest to use fib, rtb, and hack for as well
i think it's because you need to be mindful of your joker order (put it to the right for the most points)
you’re competing with like 3 shit 5 card hands tbf
Make all the decisions for me I don't want free will
Ankh popcorn
Or egg
Flush 5 is clearly the best 5 card hand, its the top on the hands list
Not for gold stake what
Ankhing the egg or the throwback could be really funny
Ankh throwback and fullskip
it even works for tdl!
Even more points for f5
It’s the only hand that procs the tribe and the family without 4 fingers
That’s pretty good
um um it can be x32 mult for idol
with its base 14 mult or something
that’s huge

16 even

I hate Bloodstone
ankh popcorn
87% of my gold stake wins are these two builds lol
(IK not all are gold stake in the ss)
Quite the nice run
Seance!
Ain't going to be part of the team :(
what the grimace
Banner tho.... :(
Won't happen... :(
this is bad
I'm gonna put banner out of its misery it's so sad
What about Walkie Talkie? c:
are we deadass
man
I hate Flush
this blows

Me too, buddy, me too
NO
Yes!!
no
whynot
unless you want two copies of eternal Clown of Chaos
If it duplicates Chaos you're cooked
i would SELL myself
holy dejavu
but who
jaggler?
stm?
Zany Joker obviously
im gonna SELL you
I'm eternal :)
my fist arent
Balatrocord sell strat
I'm pinned to left most spot
ok here i go
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES
fake
you didn't even sell your negatives
probably
prob not
but its photochad so no
technically speaking photochad straights is fine on painted
saturn gives a lot of base mult
Chance of hitting negative without selling=3/7
chance of hitting negative by selling all possible=1/5
1/5<<3/7
conclusion: what the fuck
Bloodstone moment
I hate Bloodstone
what's the arbritrary first rank i should kill
skip less
idk I just kill a random and if the same rank appears again I kill that too
10
or 4
actually ace
ace good
to kill
maybe
i mean straights are always an option in this deck
is it worth it to give up trading card now
ye
We hardly knew ye
what
lol
surprised cloud 9 got that high considering the general perception of it
this is so booty
Stencil is in my top 5
nuh uh
cloud 9 is basically "scaleable" golden joker.
I think people overhyped sock
Low-key wishin I had a photograph right now
close.
Beyond pissed. About to lose what was on pace to be one of the easiest naneinf seeds ever because Ecto showed up like ante 1 before I had any of the good jokers and then refused to show up since
Also the stupid cards in shop voucher showed up 3 times in a row. I should have just bought it
hm
Yeah so if my calculations are correct, I can only make it past Ante 24 if my $5,000 finds me a nat negative hand size joker, wish me luck
so does the ox take you out of debt
Yes
like wraith
thankyou
no
Wait hold on a second
average naneinf attempt
I have one thought
I think I CAN do this
If I do Crimson Bean
Which I have never done before
But I'd have to be super lucky and smart
Okay question for those who know about save scumming
seven
Is it possible to exit the game after the Crimson Heart picks a joker if you use super slow speed and then have it do the start again
probably not on the deck that likes straights
given how seeds work, itll always pick the same joker
then aces or twos i think
yeah i was doing that
Fs 😭
blueprint is soo good
but so are the other cards
im confused
damn, close to removing diamonds 😆
diamonds flush could work here
When i try playing something that isn't pairs
@ocean yoke what should i take?
You don't need 2 suit jokers unless you're running wild cards
but both are enhanced
Doesn't matter
and have a lot of cards with them
ok
@fervent wolf
what do i replace with
clubs or heart joker?
hologram(which i think is good to replace one of them)
Hologram is awesome
yea, but what do i replace with
What stake you on
Normal stake is easy
I'd personally drop either crafty or tribe
i dropped tribe
tribe is only x2 right?
Yes
bootstraps still suck
yes i did skip 1/3rd of the game to carry card sharp for ante 8
was it a good idea? probably not
Do I ditch invis or a bs
I ditched the bs cause it’s funnier to have one of each
Invis hit baron im not mad abt that
Do I try invis agai
Probably the worst hit
So try again?
Fuck it
I’m gonna try again it’s more fun
find antimatter btw
Yeah I did earlier but I wasn’t ready
Sorry I meant
I found ecto earlier
Haven’t seen blank yet
SECOND INVIS HIT BP YEAA
Thanks wheel
start fixing that deck
Question
I have 2 bps, a bs, baron and mkme
I’m on verdant leaf
Do I sell bs
I’ve got like 240 bucks to rerol it back maybe
Another night, another Balatro run win. I love the checkered deck
https://medal.tv/games/balatro/clips/lG1PF32zV0EtyW65H?invite=cr-MSxCRGgsMTc3ODQ5OTI3&v=120 another gold stake stickerless win
Watch Untitled by fosu and millions of other Balatro videos on Medal. #balatro
20 Ws so far, yellow deck next
8 ball my absolute beloved
i love getting 10 tarot cards per round
hmm maybe its time to get rid of it though
eh nah im scoring 100k per face card pair i'll be fine
8 ball more fun than burnt joker
streamer reading the card explains the card
what is tht?
if you have below an amount of cards you started with it will go up
so u mean the number of playing cards?
Most decks have 52 cards to start right, (abandoned deck only has 40). Now if you remove cards from the deck permanently, either by using hanged man, immolate, trading card, etc, then you will have less than 52 cards. for each card you remove, you gain 4 mult.
wow polychrome erosion looks kinda sick
Of course, adding cards will remove that mult as you get closer to having 52 cards again
Less cards = more mult
i agree
so then i dont think it will be tht usefull then right?
no cards = +mult
erosion is a good joker
Erosion is good
well removing cards is already a good thing to do
less cards in your deck is something you actively want to pursue
as it makes it easier to draw any specific card from your deck
a smaller deck is more reliable to draw your hands and different stuff you want like seals and enhancments
removing is good, but less number of cards, then what will i play if i run out of cards?
erosion rewards you for doing something youd do anyways
it is very difficult to run out of cards
If you run out you lose
i have a good joker set
the issue of running out of cards is very easy to avoid and hard to have happen outside endless
makes sense now tht i see it. rarely does happen
why are you copying droll and not abstract
either way droll for juggler sounds fine here
I wish Erosion worked based on 52 cards so Abandoned Deck just starts with Erosion pretty cranked
my dumb ass, thnx. just noticed it
but then i play flushed more freq. and only +1 hand
should i replace hanging chad for golden joker?
so that i wont have a bad eco? or should i skip?
you don't really have anything to retrigger with chad
rn i dont yea
might have some red seals or gold seals later maybe?
so do i replace with golden or skip or any other suggestions?
im going to sleep, I wonder how hard this is gonna get downvoted when I wake up
it CAN barely be good sometimes only when you have TWO joker slots taken for it by oops all 6s which is quite rare actually and you can't get both every run
fork why do you do this to yourself
can you send images on r/balatro
mas0chism
yes
if so then we need to be sending the dicriabp image
what's that
oh I see
Obviously with my username blurred or something
they literally can't read wtf
combinations and strategy? like praying for oops or you die immediately?
they probably hate ancient id assume
"dudes"
there it is
LMAOOOOOOOOO
fucking classic
since ancient requires 3% more brainpower than bloodstone
actually reply like that (the praying for oops part) and see the downvotes 
me when i can't say mfs
ancient joker is so much better than bloodstone lmao
aj is just bloodstone if it was remotely usable
Photo is bad trib which is good idol which is bad aj which is good bloodstone which is bad photo
the first time ever
bloodskull!
lmao??????
blackboard:
me when my hologram gets countered by the fish or something
copy erosion
if it has value
+8 rn
just which has more value
For a second I believed it until I thought a lil more hard
with +1.5 for poly
those same good uncommons also dont have a list of requirements to use it
fkkk
reddit is just a variant of roffle fans ngl
at least they said "almost" 
Copy trading card!!!
theyre always glazing high scoring joker even if theyre unreliable
Photo is bad trib which is good idol which is bad aj which is good bloodstone which is bad photo
this person definitely runs bloodstone sock photochad every game
So baron isn't pog?
how many uncommons get nuked by a specific boss
Flash card
bull, bootstraps
basically almost every joker has a boss blind weakness of some sort. having a boss blind weakness and weak ability to score on your own is bad
baron is mid at best
So baron no pog?
indirect, but burger can be bad against tooth or eye
streamer reading the card explains the card
i mean most of the uncommons don't really care that much at least
like i wont fault boss blind weakness if its 1 boss blind and the joker otherwise does its job
mouth too, but to a lesser extent I think.
luchador gets removed from your joker slots by every boss blind if you want it to
bloodstone has a weakness that cant be avoided AND needs oops to be reliable
But like... Baron is good because it can naneif
bloodston is bad aginst the head
andrew vs water
also bloodstones and tribs weakness both are similar in that there isnt playing around them
matador vs thing that it would logically make sense to work against but doesn't
you cant avoid imminent death if theyre genuinely your only xmult
I mean it's not that bad
and no luchador or whatever that just removes any boss blind grom existence
i wish triggering a boss blind ability was a meaningful statement that applied to balatro
lol, lmao even
if andy aint eternal you can sell it at least
I mean depends
monster chewing on glass cards
the fish is one of the worst boss ever
isnt deep endless like ante 20 or something? and idol builds die around like 18
first person that didn't say vv is hardest
(this post explicitly is not talking about endless btw)
because of nonsense like this
I mean hey my only goal in balatro is to naneif
vv?
im still firm on my statement that an extra mode with only 15 viable jokers isnt well designed
endless lacks variety
Violet Vessel
Extra Large Boss Blind
that's the wall
yas
vv is very large
correction bait
you should make youtube shorts and purposely make mistakes in your videos to engagement farm
lalalalala
yeah -1 hand on one boss blind is really crippling blackboard
girl i think
i think i dont like you posting r/balatro anymore
anyways thats enough reddit idiocy for today. we should make our own idiotic comment not rely on reddit
bloodstone worst joker
the humble world:
You don’t understand about the secret line of code that causes Balatro to crash when you encounter the water with blackboard in inventory
comments like obelisk is bad
The Wall
Very Lagre Blind
Okay but then we're the ones looking dumb
yes
insane pull wth
it makes castle worse
don't even think
but like
just take
wow
juuuust checkin lol
i never did
Best way to farm negative karma on reddit: Speak the truth about game meta/balancing on r/balatro.
If a comment gets downvoted on Reddit it means it’d be funny on any other platform
Well if you're taking this comment very literally and not thinking about it yeah it's correct. But like judgement exists
oh hey riff raff
he's not in the chat
He's in the shop though
HOLY
well i have no good +mult
i found blueprint
I am a balatro
does ankh spare identical jokers or does it delete everything
CCIBP
no one expects the moolah build!!
it deletes anything that is not eternal.
one immolate on ante 2 small blind and i'm set
8 ball procked so im now here
one yellow deck ante 1
14$ even before you can buy anything
Hello ace
hi
What did you possibly have to give up for it ?
It was a shiny 9
mr bones:
Apparently I needed the Chad for some scoring
no it's not
6
judging from ss, its ante 6 and up
Do yoo have a ss?
the stew is cooking
Nah, I just died and moved on, it was ante 6, I had hiker, Chad, cloud 9, and a pretty good and chunky fortune teller from all the 9's I was duplicating
Interesting
My score drastically lowered when I sold Chad for the C9, I couldn't even remember what my 5th joker was
This made me wanna do modded run though
Whatever we shall settle this at once
1v1 on pvzh
Lmao
There's a joker in Neato Jokers mod that makes 9's a viable scoring option for nanlets
I just wanna see if I can reach Naneinf with 9's because my highest with a run in that mod alone is E84
Haven't played that game in months
cant you get naneinf using 9s in base game with like observatory perkeo
That drunkard is carrying you hard rn
its honestly an S tier card in the right build not even joking
But yeah, the polychrome on that makes bootstraps usable for a couple more antes lmfao
well
every joker can beat ante 8 but i wouldnt say every joker can be s tier
You know what I mean
Very large blind
Me when Obby
The Ox: 🙏
People still say that's a bad joker
hoping i can get either lucha or reroll coupon in that case
or be able to dodge the most played hand
you don't expect certificate to be able to sort your econ for the run
yknow
that's like the one thing it can't really do
god is good, god is great
ishowlatro
Picked up a run from where I left it yesterday and gold staked 3 more jokers, from which are included CHICOT putting in the work and carrying the run surprisingly!
chicot is the GOAT
not bad, just requires brainpower
Not even remotely, it's one of the strongest jokers in the game
just play 14 pairs
have reroll voucher, good to go. Just don't forget to use it before boss.
yes
what should i get rid of for oops all 6s?
cavendish
i didnt say it was bad
this is my deck if that helps
i said brainpower
yea cav
"not bad" is underrating obelisk
what do u guys think of this joker set?
ass
i did but then lost the run LOL
it would be aight if not for the over reliance on a five-card face card hand basically
any replacements needed rn?
i wouldnt have scored high enough with cavendish
I rate this
/10
not surprised
Sell everything
fr
and hold R
😭
you can replace abstract or smiley probably depending on the run
also PLEASE put that hologram infront of abstract
ggs, i call this the ISHOWLATRO build
i dont have enough face cards thgh
you've done zero deck fixing?
it is right? but does it matter?
yes it does
ig i did?
why wouldnt it matter
abstract needs to be to the left of hologram
i dont know can u explain how?
you don't need pareidolia
yep
sell it
focused on max hearts and spades
you want x mult to be on the very right so all of the +mult gets multiplied
to get a single deck type
hologram run be like
oh yea
5 x 3 +25 is less than 5+25 x3
i see
I might have known if I had used a brain
you can drop pareidolia
that makes it clearer now
no worries we all have brainless moments
for photograph im guessing?
yes
ok
but since i have so many hearts lusty joker seems better right?
since this only replays the first face card?
so like this?
how much mult would lusty give you
so idk what point of the game are you at
send full screenshots
im srry?
from now on
ante 7
aight
hand level, and what hand you play
+3
its not
go next
i have the wall next
((x + 5) * 2 + 5) * 2 > ((x + 3) * 2 + 3) * 2 + 3 + 3 + 3
the quadruple rental - waht the heeellllll
lusty could be better than smiley here, yes
double poly holo + glass joker goes hard, especially with blue seals from certificate right?
Didn't have any money from quadruple rentals though, and only picked up certificate late in the run
this was a run I somehow DID win in though
I only really ever needed runner and madness
8 ball is genuinely criminally underrated
but 8-ball let me build my dexk
EXACTLY
But i agree it should be buffed a bit
1/3 seems good enough
I have never won a game with 8-ball
is it the best joker? fuck no, but it and superposition are like very good actually
I mean yeah, cause like you'd find it shocking how many cards actually build into eights
also ZERO cards build into 7's
found that out last night
only ODD TODD benefits from that
another case of hanging chad op
"runner is a pairs joker you don't need to keep scaling it" It's a SCALING JOKER. I'm gonna SCALE IT.
And I'm gonna get EVERY SINGLE CHIP out of that mother boy...
it is but also its not
not really either smiley or abstract goes
still missing that hand level info I think
i assume abstract since at least smiley does something before the photo sock but hand info matters
shld i replace similey for blueprint?
i'm dyslexic i'm a balatro player
lessgooo
won for today
now im done for today
time for class
thnx a lot guys
also
unlocked
ghost deck
which i heard is really good
do i take a speculative chad for literally anything good with chad (hell even rough gem) or skip it since im gonna be green joker gaming
I'm bad at balatro
Just take it
It has a lot of synergies
got a gold sticker on my wee
it's sigma
balatro
There’s barely any downside to taking it
baltro!
balalala
Balaltro
it is chips
even immediately rn it's good with pairs
wee was like 500
trance is the play here as much as wraith is funny
ankh is even funnier
Green joker Chad and trance in ante 1?
Thats pretty good
rate my thing brotato
no stuntman
Here’s mine
matador about to wreak havoc
how good is heiro here
go for it
i am just before the boss so maybe its good value to take it
before people used to talk a lot about abstract being there
swash is sigma don't you dare
Rip to my riches
also egg used to be in the spot green joker is now
negative soda
have a last meal bucko
what I waiting for
u gon die of starvation
never punished
Joebiden_SODA.mp3
how many jokers u gold staked? I'm halfway thru
got sixth sense jimbo and order gold stickers now
how far are you in
i am halfway thrre
idk becauze its a nightmare to count
perfect time to sell green for supernova
i just try and get jokers with no gold stickers and thats it i guess
Ranking them based on how much they helped
the jimbo sticker is important tho
wow the completely predictable consequences of my own deck fixing have caught up to me
i have oranfe sr
orange sticker on him
im struggling so hard to get onyx agate and rough gem 🥀 skill issue
i survived luckily
today i got gold sticker on chicot supernova and acrobat
I approve of this tierlist
Which passed the halfway mark
also for a heavy hologram run only 70 deck size is kinda low
huh
the list can feel somewhat wobbly though because i had first made it for completionist+, not c++
what are the chances
fml
Not that many
But t
I think I did gold an egg
sacrifices of a painted deck
why the fuck would you pick up an eternal droll joker da fuq
i just realized
WHERE ARE THE HUNG MEN
splash has no excuse
while sometimes you gotta take droll to get through ante 2
Hung, probably
all the hung men hang out in your blue joker runs
guess you'll have to sell canio for flower pot at this point
I mean he does have the card sharp
Maybe he wanna play high cards while earning more chips
trading card showing up in ante 8 lmfao
bless
flushes
i glaze splash
leav me alon 🥀🥀🥀
ion like this deck
i already lost 3 good runs
i had a straight flush build earlier and lost because i played a regular flush
Something something early game desperation / funny
Plasma....
Wha
ye no that wont work
I'll turn into a hipster
Splash aint even bad tho
A green joker hipster
you can sell one of the square jokers (if theyre 4$ or more) for free money
Splash can make ancient joker like way more consistent
Sometimes
And make it work with pairs
do you really need splash for AJ?
If u have any card triggering jokers
Splash is pretty pathetic
I had 2 good splash runs
With 8 ball and Midas mask+vampire
It can literally SAVE a run
Well is it splash saving the run or the glass saving the run
Well both
Without the splash u might not be able to play glass
If ur playing pairss
I never had that issue
Btw painted deck is my favorite
NOOOOO
painted deck 🥀
get your ass back to the smiling friends
Look I'm a green joker and painted deck hipster ya guys don't understand
It's really fun
but painted deck 
painted deck is cool
Thank you!
And planet cards
Painted deck 
painted deck was the only deck I really struggled with to gold stake for some reason
For me it’s nebula rn
No?
painted deck 
Painted deck 
what if painted deck was called fainted deck and if you played it the game crashes
painted deck
