[atomic trout]

Should have been an Trophy

[signal frigate]

4 oak oneshots the entirety of ante 1

[lost vault]

why

[signal frigate]

Just

Play a flush

[atomic trout]

Why not?

[lost vault]

i think that’d be silly

[lost vault]

kinda pointless

[atomic trout]

You're pointless 😥

[lost vault]

not really challenging

just

a thing u can do

[lost vault]

nuh uh…

[atomic trout]

I like to do stupid plays on Balatro just to freshen the game up

LIke Anaglyph extra money

[signal frigate]

That's not really a stupid play

That is how you utilize Anaglyph deck

[lost vault]

then again you unlock throwback by continuing a run from the menu

[atomic trout]

Gettnig three vouchers?

[lost vault]

meh

[signal frigate]

Also not stupid

That's literally what Anaglyph's gimmick is

[lost vault]

kinda silly but excusable

[signal frigate]

You get to do alot of funny stuff with double tags

I did a big brain desperate play once when I got red card and skipped to get like 10 mega celestial packs

And then skipped when I didn't see a pair

Ez 60+ mult

[atomic trout]

gay banana?

[lost vault]

mmmm

my favorite

[atomic trout]

My favorite play I did one time

how?

[signal frigate]

The strongest banana to ever live

[lost vault]

bro’s in gay debt

[signal frigate]

Does this increase the debt?

[atomic trout]

-$60 dollars was funny

[signal frigate]

Oh it does

[atomic trout]

It doesn't

[signal frigate]

I've never done that cuz I hate Credit Card

[fallow briar]

ok but having 3 yoricks instead wouldve been fire

[atomic trout]

I had two Anhks before Yorick

[lost vault]

3 gay cards is funnier than 3 yoricks

[atomic trout]

This run, I can't remember the Seed, but it was hilarious

[lost vault]

two ankhs? but then you’d only have 2 ccs

ankh destroys all jokers including copies unless theyre eternal

[atomic trout]

I found a natural Credit Card with Hex on Ghost Deck, then Anhk twice

Yorick came way later

[lost vault]

double ankh doesnt work like that

[atomic trout]

... wait

[fallow briar]

so if i replace one of my chads with a sock and buskin will that be better? i have glass red seal king flush fives i play

[lost vault]

you would
copy cc
destroy cc and then copy cc again

[atomic trout]

It doesn't. how did I do it?

[lost vault]

probably invisible joker

[atomic trout]

it's been a while since I did that run

[atomic trout]

THAT

My bad. It was Invisible Joker!

Ahnk destroys regular jokers, it was Invisible Jokers, but I remember Ghost Deck because I Hexed CC

[signal frigate]

No, since Photo only activates on the first card, you're only adding one trigger instead of two from a chad

[fallow briar]

but glass value?

[signal frigate]

If that were Idol/Trib and you have a deck of only either king or queens, sock is more preferable

[signal frigate]

You wanna go for glasses already?

[lost vault]

now we get to the real question: why did uou hex credit fucking card

[atomic trout]

Spoiled Banana

[signal frigate]

Why not?

[fallow briar]

i have 90 cards and 50 are glass

[lost vault]

it sucks

[signal frigate]

Yeah, why not?

[signal frigate]

How fixed is your deck?

Is it only one rank?

[fallow briar]

i have way too much junk like 20 random cards

[atomic trout]

Has anyone achieved this Crash Out?

[signal frigate]

Limme find one of my own

[flint walrus]

holy moly

[fallow briar]

i was kidding about 50 glass its more like 15

[atomic trout]

What the?

[signal frigate]

Can't find it but I have this

[atomic trout]

I love it.

Youre the most negative around lol

[fallow briar]

ive been getting glass in hand and after digging for purples, steels, or blue seals i just dna it 3 times and get a flush five glass

so is sock and buskin better then?

ok whatever im gonna say its better even though i cant do basic math

[supple yarrow]

i haveth discovered an invis joker in the first shop

i am le angy

[atomic trout]

I am Angry

Haha

[pulsar flower]

hi guys. quick question. anyone ever had an issue where some game text has flickering shadows? currently my "hands" text is flashing white and driving me nuts

[atomic trout]

GAME?

Why am I getting two bananas??

[fallow briar]

not me

[supple yarrow]

lol do i do a double hit the road

or not worth

[distant vault]

Bruh

[supple yarrow]

i mean hes cool

[distant vault]

Holy

Too bad im dead

[supple yarrow]

please tho anyone know if taking a double hit the road will save my run

[supple yarrow]

is that a negative something???

[distant vault]

Constellation

[supple yarrow]

mmm i see

[distant vault]

I just need money or im dead

[supple yarrow]

i think my run is already dead, 0 money, 2 hit the roads and 2 commons

[atomic trout]

Game?

[fallow briar]

hello whats the best order if i wanna play flush five red seal glass kings?

[atomic trout]

Where the hell is the game? lol

the fuck?

[acoustic kettle]

I don't believe in econ

[shadow spruce]

sure would be nice to have a madness eh

[atomic trout]

LOL It's not working

Four times the charm?

[distant vault]

Somewhat stable

[atomic trout]

Damn

[fallow briar]

mime and baron BACK TO BACK in the shop

[distant vault]

We're close fellas

Poly skip was worth it

Golden joker coming along

[fallow briar]

holy crap was this close

[acoustic kettle]

Very real run

[distant vault]

We made it

[dark cairn]

i have a decision to make
purple stake painted deck round 1 shop
foil rebate or shortcut?

[distant vault]

Rebate

[dark cairn]

yea

[distant vault]

Foil rebate is insane

[dark cairn]

i wanna make use of shortcut on a high stake run sometime but it cant compete with that

and a holographic jolly joker in 2nd shop

[dark cairn]

it's eternal though so i'm MILDLY skeptical of taking it

but nah i think i take it anyway thats an easy +18 mult

[acoustic kettle]

If only it is a blueprint instead of brainstorm

[supple yarrow]

AYO A JUDGEMENT GAVE ME BRAINSTORM

[unreal island]

KILL KILL KILL KILL

[supple yarrow]

i hate eternal cards so much i just lost a run because of early ankh just killing my brainstorm and copying the stupid eternal i was forced to take earlier

sigh...

[dark cairn]

WHAT IS THIS RUN BRO

Well i'm def taking a holo vampire

[fallow briar]

good run

guess which joker im missing

[unborn apex]

skill issue. You got flushes, straight, 3 of a kind even

throw them

make the difference with a pair or two pair

[karmic skiff]

hey random question, what would happen if you had all 5 legendary jokers and found a soul? or would a soul just not show up

[acoustic kettle]

It spawns jimbo

FUCK I FORGOT HOW DEATH WORKS AND DELETED A BLUE SEAL

NOOOO

[wary isle]

Best Joker Combos Without Blueprint or Brainstorm

10: Vampire Midas

9: Swashbuckler Egg

8: HallucinationOops all 6s

7: Ramen Delayed Gratification

6: Ice Cream Rollback

5: Smeared Seance

4: Wee Hack

3: Sock and Buskin Paredoleia

2: Paredolia Canio

1: Yorick Merry Andy

[acoustic kettle]

Eh

Not that good

What does abstract do with oa6

[wary isle]

2/2 chance of tarot card when you open a pack

[acoustic kettle]

That's hallucination

[wary isle]

without opps it is only 50%

[wary isle]

but the deck fixing

the value

[acoustic kettle]

Wrong joker

Hallucination

Not abstract

Ice cream throwback is kinda

Eh

Smeared seance too

[wary isle]

my b

[acoustic kettle]

Photochad should be up there

[wary isle]

Both benefit from playing less blinds

Ice cream because it melts less

Throwback for the scaling

[acoustic kettle]

Well in theory

But throwback just sucks

[versed oriole]

What’s the best strategy for jokerless

[wary isle]

Well; there are worse

cough cough 8Ball, Red Card, Joker

[acoustic kettle]

Ain't no way

[versed oriole]

Don’t talk shit about my beloved red card

[marsh needle]

These were the types of builds noob me would do, its refreshing to walk into a build like that again and play it well

[acoustic kettle]

Red card is so good

Nowhere close to throwback

[versed oriole]

So has anyone beat jokerless?

[acoustic kettle]

Straights

Glass cards

Looking for blue seals in packs

[versed oriole]

But straights aren’t constant

[acoustic kettle]

Well

[marsh needle]

Neither is pair dummy

[acoustic kettle]

They scale well

[marsh needle]

[acoustic kettle]

And you can fix for straights

[versed oriole]

Pair you mean the easiest hand to get

[wary isle]

Skipping one pack with Red Card still makes it worse than Joker at only +3. You need to skip 2 for it to have a better mult than Joker and even then you spent more money on packs and did not pick anything from them

[supple yarrow]

i have a very interesting run going on, photochad four of a kind

[acoustic kettle]

It makes packs have a guaranteed value

[wary isle]

Red Card is easily a bottom 3 joker at best honestly

[acoustic kettle]

It's not

Throwback is

[marsh needle]

huhh

If we were talking about specifically money-hole +mult scalers

[acoustic kettle]

You are opening packs anyway

[marsh needle]

bootstraps and flash card are like, comparable and mayyyybe worse than red card

lol

[acoustic kettle]

Red card gives you something if the packs whiff

[acoustic kettle]

I'd say flashcard is comparable

[wary isle]

Spending 4 dollars on a pack just to skip it, if it the first pack you are using to scale the thing still makes it worse than Joker at +3 instead of +4 and that is not counting the money you spent buying it.

[acoustic kettle]

But bootstraps below

[marsh needle]

Yeah the good thing about flashcard counters the bad thing about red card (and dagger, too)

you can only scale it so much

If ur econ is going crazy ur flash card can go way crazier than a red card ever could

[wary isle]

Without Midas Vampire is the worst because it does either nothing or has active anti synergy.

but Red Card is down there

[marsh needle]

vampire isnt the best but it does its job

[acoustic kettle]

Actuak white stake

[marsh needle]

And ive definitely won with vampirw while having no strong synergies like cartomancer / vagabond

[acoustic kettle]

You usually open packs anyway

Looking for tarot or planet

If you whiff you get nothing

[versed oriole]

What is the best deck

[acoustic kettle]

With red card if you whiff you get +3 mult

[marsh needle]

Love playing some erratic deck

[versed oriole]

Or let me rephrase your favorite deck

[acoustic kettle]

Plasma

[versed oriole]

Same

[marsh needle]

Plasma white stake is chill as hell

Fun to do challenges on

[versed oriole]

Even gold is chill

[supple yarrow]

photochad slays on face card dominated erratic

[wary isle]

It starts at 0

[supple yarrow]

this is so fun

[marsh needle]

It was, for you?

Plasma gold was pain

[versed oriole]

Mhm

I did it first try

[acoustic kettle]

Well plasma is so different playstyle wise

[marsh needle]

Luckyyyy waow

[acoustic kettle]

If you're used to normal scoring plasma gold is hell

[marsh needle]

its misleading

[versed oriole]

It was my first gold

[marsh needle]

Youd expect it to be chips deck

But nah its still xmult

[acoustic kettle]

Chips works for ante 8

[safe verge]

The mid game transition is mean

[marsh needle]

On white yes
On gold, rarely

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[versed oriole]

I mean I used blue joker and did it

[acoustic kettle]

You just need the scaling ones

[versed oriole]

And I had like 85+ cards

[acoustic kettle]

I did my first plasma gold full chips

It was like

Stuntman

[marsh needle]

Chips never worked for me in gold

[acoustic kettle]

Ice cream

Banner

[marsh needle]

Id have like a 140 dollar bull and be struggling

[versed oriole]

Hanging Chad on top

[marsh needle]

Solid

love runner

[serene forge]

based

[marsh needle]

My fellas

[safe verge]

You can't make me run straights

[acoustic kettle]

Abandoned orang estake done

[safe verge]

Postcard my beloved

[marsh needle]

W eternal negative credit card

i had that exact thing recently and gold stickered my card haha

[dark cairn]

i believe we call this a "free win moment"

[versed oriole]

Does anyone not have hanging Chad as most used?

[serene forge]

I have red card

[dark cairn]

(satellite was nat negative and polychrome blueprint came from wheel)

[marsh needle]

Idk why chad is my most? I use it a lot but ig i just used it more when i was noob

Mine will become rebate or green joker or blueprint with time i bet

[idle haven]

photochad high card build coming up

[dark cairn]

rebate #1 for me
supernova #2
chad #3

[versed oriole]

It’s a free run with photo Chad

[acoustic kettle]

Photochad without the photo

[idle haven]

soon

[dark cairn]

chad doesnt do much if you dont have enhanced cards or a photograph

[serene forge]

my #1 is red card and #2 is blueprint

[serene forge]

it synergizes with a lot of jokers

like a lot of them

[tranquil cargo]

chad does a lot more than photograph does

[dark cairn]

im aware

[versed oriole]

Or hitchhiker

[acoustic kettle]

I'm scaling my wee

[serene forge]

even early game when it doesn't have those synergies its still acceptable because its a few extra chips

[idle haven]

holy investment

[versed oriole]

Hitchhiker hanging Chad combo underrated

[marsh needle]

Aintnoway trib build without the trib????

[idle haven]

ikr

[supple yarrow]

certificate goes crazy even as eternal

holy

[marsh needle]

Manifesting 100 hot single triboulets to your area

[idle haven]

mayb

[wary isle]

bottom 5 jokers

Worst: No Midas Vampire
2: Red Card
3: Seance
4: 8Ball
5: Joker

[marsh needle]

Also im doing similar rn :3

[finite wharf]

negative runner be like competitive walker

[wary isle]

Vampire with midas is good

[acoustic kettle]

No way

[wary isle]

without Midas the joker is active either nothing or anti synergy

[acoustic kettle]

Idol baron is right there

And you chose red card and vampire

[marsh needle]

Yeah even on erratic with a great start and lucky deckfixing and good econ

I could only get like

[acoustic kettle]

8 ball is not bad

[marsh needle]

60% my deck to be one card by like ante 6

[acoustic kettle]

Tarot gen is never bad

[marsh needle]

On erratic gold

[idle haven]

my deck fixing is better hahaha

[marsh needle]

I thought the idol would get value but the risk was dumb :(

[wary isle]

The anti synergy that vampire has with so many mechanics is sad

[idle haven]

thank you negative tag

[marsh needle]

Yeah this will win but im not going to go into endless with this build

Its refreshing tho

[acoustic kettle]

Not the worst

[marsh needle]

Been too long since ive done retrigger type build

[acoustic kettle]

Vampire does its job

[finite wharf]

burglar mail in is right there

[wary isle]

It is the Paladin Monk multiclass of Balatro without Midas - minimal benefit if really any for a mountain of issues and anti synergy in return.

[supple yarrow]

getting a death and a hung man from emperor feels so nice

[finite wharf]

update makes blue stake give eternal to enhancements on cards

imagine

[acoustic kettle]

Not having card enhancements is not the end of the world

[finite wharf]

i like blue seals

[wary isle]

The mult gain is laughably small

[potent tree]

best seal in game fr

[acoustic kettle]

It is a little low but

[finite wharf]

have you tried the brown seal

[acoustic kettle]

It is nowhere the worst joker

[potent tree]

turns your cards into 7s? (which have no special effects other than rtb)

[wary isle]

And in order for vampire to not be about as anti synergistic as multiclassing Barbarian with Sorcerer you have to spend a metric ass load of money on Tarot/Spectral cards which give enchantments.

[finite wharf]

gives poop card enhancement if scored

[potent tree]

what does a poop card do good sir

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[finite wharf]

nothing

[wary isle]

Or have midas

[potent tree]

i think i got purple stake on it yesterday

[twin turtle]

Midas vampire got more synergy than my parents

[serene forge]

do you think constellation is bad for this reason

or campfire

[potent tree]

constellation is probably my most used xmult at this time

[acoustic kettle]

Well campfire's scaling is higher

[serene forge]

its true that sometimes enhancements are important but if not

[potent tree]

even more than cav (and i find that quite a lot)

[serene forge]

ill take the scaling

[unborn apex]

i died with this exact goddamn play to a boss blind that disables all face cards

[serene forge]

yeah but the premise is the same

[potent tree]

actually what am i saying, driver's license

[serene forge]

spend money on tarots to get mult

[potent tree]

appears so often for me

[unborn apex]

i did not get a director's cut sadge

well e12 is my new high score

[potent tree]

hitting e is very good

[idle haven]

right after i win the game too lmao

[unborn apex]

i guess i should taken the bean if i knew that this boss blind was gonna kill me

[potent tree]

i hit e for the first time on this savefile thanks to double photochad

[wary isle]

Constellation has POSITIVE synergy with the mechanics it interacts with, so no

I don’t think it the best, but it is far from the worst

[serene forge]

well not exactly

if im never playing the hands im leveling up

[unborn apex]

chigoat would have saved me

[idle haven]

wowie

[potent tree]

my first savefile has a high score of e14 thanks to AJ

[unborn apex]

at ante 9? that's already a perfect hand if you get the mime

[idle haven]

no baron

we must go idol

and maybe trib

[unborn apex]

remove ballet for baron and also photochad for blueprint and showman for another idol if you get it

[unborn apex]

the sad part is i did not even see lucadhor come my way

much less me taking it if i had known

[idle haven]

this will be our best hand yet

[unborn apex]

our? who's our my guy?

[idle haven]

amazing

[idle haven]

the people im on vc with

[unborn apex]

absolute cinema

[steel ginkgo]

just lost my baron, mime, many steel king, brainstorm run to the plant get your violins folks

[unborn apex]

oh i see them now

[supple yarrow]

i mean hey i got to ante 10 on erratic purple stake

im proud

[ornate orchid]

Ballintro

[unborn apex]

oh you completed my random deck challenge

[dark cairn]

2 nat negatives in one run lmao

this game is a clown fiesta sometimes

[night turret]

It was going so good too…

Jokers I was running

[marsh needle]

Bro. Where are my diamonds.

[night turret]

Gone, reduced to atoms

[marsh needle]

I think two pair with the diamond first wins but that is abysmal

[idle haven]

after 15 antes i got the deck fixed

[marsh needle]

Used every hand and every discard with max cards to draw flush

Thats absurd

[minor portal]

In the deck. Hope this helps.

[dark cairn]

is it possible for you to lose on the balatrodle website or does it just keep going until you either give up or find out what it is

[marsh needle]

Drew 8 Hearts
Drew 9 Clubs
Drew 11 Spades

Diamonds?

4️⃣

[dark cairn]

thats why you dont usually build around flushes

[minor portal]

Balatro would never want to draw your hand.

[marsh needle]

that is NOT why u dont usually build around flushes 😭

maybe thats the case for straights / 4oak / full house

[minor portal]

you don't build into flushes because they level like trash

[marsh needle]

Yupyup

and thats why mr dagger is there

Anyways, next run

-.-

The game is teasing me with this first round

ohhh there are my diamonds they were hidden in the next run

[idle haven]

HOLY SET UP BRO

[marsh needle]

Bro.

[marsh needle]

Sell showman for showman

[idle haven]

already done

[marsh needle]

Hell yeah.

[idle haven]

it doesnt get much better than this

e55

[marsh needle]

Jesusss

Wow

[onyx cipher]

Anyone played Baba is You recently

[idle haven]

best run oat thanks to ecto

best score to die on

round 68 (after 67) and the required e score is e67

the final hand

i loved this run

so much fun

[proper turtle]

zodiac gold just about beaten

[vale shale]

Wait was the deck again

Zodiac right

I played counter strike and completely forgot about it

[manic talon]

imagine a bloodstone here, damn

[shell dagger]

end of ante 4 square yippee

[winter whale]

first time ive managed that

[fallow fog]

nah we need the ancient

not the certificate

[winter whale]

im on ante 2 🥀

[steel ginkgo]

holy wild card synergy batman

[flint siren]

Two good choices...

This will decide the rest of the game but for now I don't have anything going.

[shell dagger]

Mime ez

[neat ore]

Is balatro getting a movie just like iron lung?

[balmy ridge]

i hate chicot

incase that wasn't obvious

[neat ore]

...

[manic talon]

Yes, we will put ben starr inside the iron lung submarine and fill it with fake blood

Of course hes playing as jimbo

[neat ore]

No I mean like just a balatro movie

What would it be about

[manic talon]

Yea but i think my idea is funnier

[neat ore]

Also ofc jimbo will be played as frank Sinatra

[vale shale]

OOPS!

[neat ore]

And trib would be jerma

Bloodstone would be uhhhhh

Paul von hindenberg

[verbal sable]

[rustic aspen]

[fallow fog]

@heavy heron thank u showman

[verbal sable]

yep thats what i thought

[wicked sable]

insane seed. super early Cavendish, gave it up for the photochad just for Cavendish to KEEP SHOWING UP like 4 times. also a brainstorm and blueprint before ante 8

[acoustic kettle]

Why would you sell cav

[latent glade]

so what do i do if i find the flint in jokerless

[acoustic kettle]

Glass

[latent glade]

[acoustic kettle]

[brazen token]

balarto

[heavy heron]

HEHEHEHEHEHE

[acoustic kettle]

I win

[wicked sable]

cause i had photochad and brainstorm

[vale wharf]

What happend if I use hermit?

Someone help, there are uranus cards and I wanna buy them

But what happens if I use hermit with negative money?

[rustic aspen]

you just get 0 money I think

[vale wharf]

Pray for me 😭

[acoustic kettle]

Run is looking good

Just no eye please

[obsidian patrol]

You got burglar and the duo

You'll be fine

No wait im stupid

🥀

[rustic aspen]

,':|

was abt to say lol

[karmic forum]

This is only 3 hours of ever playing the game :3

[obsidian patrol]

I just woke up

[acoustic kettle]

Thing is

My paurs

Is level 1

I have opened every single planet pack

[obsidian patrol]

Son...

[acoustic kettle]

Rerolled in shops

No pair levels

[karmic forum]

i hope you get some pair levels ngl

[obsidian patrol]

thank god for foil blueprint

[vale wharf]

😔 run dead

[acoustic kettle]

I will lose if i take this ngl

Halfsies is carrying my mult

Or maybe not

[rustic aspen]

what your pair level at tho

[acoustic kettle]

A big fat 1

Every pack whiffed

[rustic aspen]

do you need the extra hands from burglar?

[vale wharf]

Is gold stake too harsh? The rentals stacked up and I couldn't recover my econ

[rustic aspen]

you have to be very careful about taking rentals

[acoustic kettle]

Oh wait

Halfsies is 20 mult

[unborn apex]

unless you can reliably recover the gold lost in each blind by using gold seal cards or red seal this problem will occure

[obsidian patrol]

dont take ante 1 rentals (most of the time)

[acoustic kettle]

Card sharp is 30

If i put him first

Yeah i take i think

[obsidian patrol]

How is card sharp 30

[rustic aspen]

?

[acoustic kettle]

He is holo

[obsidian patrol]

Bp and bs dont copy the edition

[unborn apex]

card sharp is 30, idk what it means

[acoustic kettle]

Holo then his 3x

30 mult

I'll take

[rustic aspen]

456 against 648

I guess you can take it then yea

[vale wharf]

I take it of it's something super good like trousers

[obsidian patrol]

Its bait

[acoustic kettle]

MY FIRST MERCURY

FINALLY

[lavish gazelle]

Yuri is carrying this run

[calm epoch]

gg 1st try

[round shadow]

ngl i want both

[acoustic kettle]

I win

Didn't even need the burger

First pack after winning

[calm epoch]

💀

[acoustic kettle]

[balmy ridge]

what

what does that mean

[solid plover]

Orange stake brings me pain

RNGesus has cursed me I can’t find good jokers

It’s 430 I need to sleep

[obsidian patrol]

Chad easily

[acoustic kettle]

[jolly relic]

foil has to be more likely to get from wheel on plasma deck

its like almost every time

[frank grove]

it is

[tight pike]

What does orange stake do? I have only gotten to black stake

[tight pike]

It is cuz it just is the worst option

[acoustic kettle]

Perishable jokers

[solid plover]

Orange adds perishables

[tight pike]

Oh god

[frank grove]

foil is just more likely in general

[acoustic kettle]

Dies after 5 rounds

[jolly relic]

oh

[tight pike]

That is evil

[solid plover]

it’s not actually that much worse that purple but I’m dependent on joker rng at this point

[minor portal]

Remember to refrigerate your jokers

[tight pike]

Please don't tell me perishable is on ALL jokers

[minor portal]

Not all of them

[frank grove]

not all of them

[solid plover]

No only some like the eternal thing

[minor portal]

seemingly most of them, but not all of them

[frank grove]

it cant be on most of the scaling jokers

[tight pike]

So all jokers basically become my gros michel luck great

[frank grove]

like dagger bus, madness, red etc

[jolly relic]

if you use hiker on a card if you use a death or cryptid or any copy on that card does it keep the chips from hiker?

[frank grove]

should do

[acoustic kettle]

I beluwve si

[tight pike]

I only like 2 of those mentioned cards

[solid plover]

If I’m dependent on joker rng to get Orange stake green deck done is that normal or me being bad at the game

[tight pike]

No that is normal

[acoustic kettle]

A little bit of both

Mostly being bad

[solid plover]

It’s like

[tight pike]

Green Deck is fun, until the scaling of the green stake or higher starts hitting

[solid plover]

I never get good synergies

[minor portal]

I think green deck and black deck should combine fr

[solid plover]

Granted I tend to reset too soon sometimes

[tight pike]

I think ghost deck should give me a fucking ankh more often jeez

[minor portal]

have you tried looking under the shop

[tight pike]

Only gotten one ankh in around 50 runs, and I couldn't even buy it

(From the shop)

[minor portal]

they keep all of the consumables on a conveyor belt

[tight pike]

Ye that's funny but I feel like my balatro game is just a wraith factory

Wouldn't one of the best combinations not be like polychrome eternal dagger with polychrome eternal egg?

[minor portal]

not really

[frank grove]

you cant feed to egg to the dagger

non eternal egg maybe

[tight pike]

You can't feed egg to dagger, man thats bs

[minor portal]

takes too long for egg to scale, ignoring the fact that it is eternal

[tight pike]

So eternal egg is just quite useless

[frank grove]

like you cant feed eternals to the dagger

[minor portal]

temperance and that's about it

[tight pike]

And swashbuckler I guess

[minor portal]

I highkey forgot swash existed

[tight pike]

I keep remembering cuz I have a skylander with the same name

[obsidian patrol]

50 dollar tempreances are quite good actually

[pale wolf]

the point of egg isnt to sell it

usually

[vale wharf]

Atp, trousers and Nova ain't even doing anything
I can gold sticker two random jokers
Tell me which ones, y'all

[pale wolf]

im going an 11 stack for obby

[pale wolf]

as long as you draw that hand yea you can sell the pants and nova

speaking of pants

[vale wharf]

I can, I know I can

[radiant gull]

i think i bought the wrong version of balatro

[vale wharf]

Should I buy clever or sell the glass and buy the green one?

Someone, help

[manic talon]

Whats the boss

[vale wharf]

Violent vessel

I feel like I should get clever

But idk

[pale wolf]

vagglebond is back

and perishable as ever

[radiant gull]

VAGABOND AND PARA

🪷🌺🌸🌷

[radiant gull]

[vale wharf]

[radiant gull]

[vale wharf]

Is this rare?

Or I'm just unlucky

[radiant gull]

idk

[frank grove]

kinda unlucky depending on how many times you've got legs

[vale wharf]

Certainly 10 times

pretty fun run end

[ember turtle]

mr boney is my favourite 4x mult joker

[pale wolf]

8.6 obelisk on an 11 twopair stack

[shell dagger]

All deleted accounts have that creation date

idk why

[pale wolf]

interesting

was that when they changed how names work or something

with the #2643

[shell dagger]

not sure

i didn’t really use discord much until 2020

[pale wolf]

do you rember number tags

on profiles

[shell dagger]

oh i thought you meant change to the tags

not from the tags

the tags only changed in the last 2 years right

[pale wolf]

i dont know

I looked it up and somehow got distracted by the macedonian naming conflict and then the greek revolutionary war of independence from the ottomans

which i didnt even realize happened

[shell dagger]

may 2023

yeah i remember before then… i think…

im glad i snagged a 4 character one

[wary flicker]

flush build and skipping in gold stake? youll be executed here

[pale wolf]

i didnt have a reason to get a smaller one tbh

[pale wolf]

It's obelisk, not a flush build

I just take whatever base mult can get

and again, sometimes you must skip with obelisk

I would have died if I didn't

I used walkie-talkie for most of the game for my base mult

[swift burrow]

WHAT. ARE. THE CHANCES

[manic talon]

Photochad but ass

The plant is not real and it cannot hurt you

[pale wolf]

real?

[manic talon]

just dont meet the plant

[pale wolf]

sick

chicot for the plant

[valid badger]

Yap it is

[pale wolf]

rip run

[upbeat barn]

can u reach nanoinf with just hanging chad

[pale wolf]

no

[frank grove]

he can be negative and do nothing

[pale wolf]

retrigger naneinfs are possible but you do 5 card retriggers And lots of copy jokers on trib/idol

[obsidian patrol]

Only need about 308 septillion chads!

[fallow fog]

sup guys

whats a good deck to do baron mime on

for the lols

gold stake

[soft vapor]

I once got egg and swash in two shop slots

I mean they're both common but yeah

[shell dagger]

zodiac or painted

for the tarot gen/hand size

[west python]

any tips for newbie on gold stake with yellow desk?

[glad bronze]

Oh damn you were actually doing it

I said that as a joke before I went to bed bc that setup is what people use to get naneinf

I'd replace your chad with a showman so you can get more blueprints/brainstorms in your next run

[west python]

ayo i got holographic blueprint on first shop

[glad bronze]

Open the buffoon pack there has to be a card in there

[west python]

i got gros michael

[glad bronze]

Michael

[west python]

now i got scholar and hallucination reroll suplus and 1 standart pack and 1 jumbo arcana pack
how i should build up? i got 39$ rn

[west python]

what should i do?

[pale wolf]

why are you verbally describing everything instead of just screenshotting

[west python]

im using phone version for balatro 🙏

oh wait, i actually should js ss that 😭

[pale wolf]

oh damn I hope they add screenshotting feature to your phone

🦓

[wary flicker]

Im just being sarcastic but fair enough

[pale wolf]

yeye couldn't quite tell

[west python]

That's what i got rn

[acoustic kettle]

Damn good jokers

[west python]

i got blueprint and michal on first shop

[acoustic kettle]

Grr

I'm jealous

[west python]

should i buy hieroglyph?

[pale wolf]

You are copying burnt and hallucination when appropriate correct?

[west python]

yeah im copying them then i buying packs or discarding hands

[acoustic kettle]

Hmm hiero is 6 extra levels

[pale wolf]

You could, I don't think you need to

[acoustic kettle]

Seems interesting

Though i personally never really take hiero

[west python]

uu i got hologram

[obsidian patrol]

I take it when i am not relying on discards

Which is a lot of runs

[west python]

but its rental :(

[obsidian patrol]

Wait

Petroglyph is tier 2

Fuck

[acoustic kettle]

6 extra pair levels

More opportunity for michel to leave and becomes cav

[west python]

Hm that's pretty good

[pale wolf]

spectral!!!

[west python]

sigil and ouija

[pale wolf]

nooo!!!!

[acoustic kettle]

Me when spectral

[west python]

should i gamble with ouija for kings?

[acoustic kettle]

No

[pale wolf]

he'll no

[west python]

k

[acoustic kettle]

Ehy do you want kings even

[pale wolf]

Kings aren't even the best rank you could get

[west python]

so do i use sigil or skip?

[pale wolf]

You can use Federal if you want, especially if most of the cards drawn are red suit

sigil

[acoustic kettle]

Federal

[pale wolf]

yeah yeah whatever

[west python]

federal?

[pale wolf]

Voice to text garbage

[acoustic kettle]

I love the federal spectral

How badly did you butcher sigil

[west python]

ill skip spectral pack then since there no really good cards :(

[pure belfry]

crazy luck

[west python]

hhm reroll glut

ts one is good

[pale wolf]

sigil generally just doesnt matter but if it hits black suits it helps Blackboard potential

[vale wharf]

Will sly joker be gold stickered if I keep him and win?

[pale wolf]

so if your hand is mostly red suits usually I will use it just in case

[frank grove]

yes

[pale wolf]

Yes, but he will keep charging you rent

[vale wharf]

That's evil wtf

All abilities debuffed my ass

[west python]

i lost... 😭

[pale wolf]

why

[west python]

i used my discards and hands wrong ended up with no cards to make flush

[pale wolf]

flush!?

[west python]

which was my main hand

[pale wolf]

😭

[west python]

im not best player i know 🙏

[pale wolf]

burnt Joker with flush is A dodgy play

[vale wharf]

Why are you a zebra btw

[pale wolf]

I was 9 years old and thought of the name zebra go boom

[red thistle]

[pale wolf]

I don't know why, I didn't particularly like zebras before then

[vale wharf]

Wait, it sounds broken on checkered deck

[pale wolf]

Not really broken, but certainly doable

[pale wolf]

bebe

[west python]

NO WAY

[acoustic kettle]

Discarding flush is crazy

[west python]

second shop and i got blueprint again

and i lost again
im so bad gng 🙏

[vale wharf]

Holyyyyyyyuyyyshitttttttttttttttt
My build is so ass and Mr. Bones comes out of the woodwork like this angel

No way I was making it to ante 9

[tranquil cedar]

perishable Mr bones is interesting

[vale wharf]

I'm on ante 8

[tranquil cedar]

feels appropriate

[vale wharf]

So it's ok

Also, he was one of the first 5 jokers I gold stickered

He's such a goat

[tranquil cedar]

yea just saying a revive mechanic with a timer seems pretty normal

[tranquil cedar]

we all love bone man

[vale wharf]

Ah, I see what you mean

Ummm, should I just skip to the end?

[lunar zealot]

God i feel like shit rn

[wary flicker]

Baseball card god

[west python]

Bro ts shop is sooo good but I'm broke

😭

Uh wrong pic

Ts one

[vale wharf]

Why what happened

[lunar zealot]

Got vaccinated and i got a fever 🔥

[vale wharf]

Wait, that can happen 😨

[west python]

Gng what do I do here

[lunar zealot]

that's how vaccines work

[vale wharf]

Vaccines are bad for humans, clearly 🤬🔪

[vale wharf]

I thought that's how they worked back in the day

I know now

[vale wharf]

But baron and make steel kings

[west python]

But im broke

Like I can sell base joker and banner then buy jumbo arcane pack and play for temperance or idk

[vale wharf]

Don't do that 😭

[shell dagger]

next time don’t voucher skip with 3 bucks

[quartz ember]

might be one of the worst shops i've ever seen

(*for your situation)

the only thing especially good is the overstock

[vale wharf]

Y'all should play more yellow deck
I gold stickered 26 jokers in one day

[west python]

So how do I move here with my money gng

[quartz ember]

get more

i.e. play on

[quartz ember]

to be honest this is a very simple equation that you should be able to solve on your own, you have 3 bucks, everything in the shop is more than 3 bucks

i guess you could sell jimbo for delgrat maybe

[floral mural]

and that can be taken next shop too unless rheyre full skipping

[frank grove]

if you voucher skip and dont buy they go away right?

only the first one stays

[floral mural]

vouchers reroll on ante end i believe so the voucher skip extra should stay?

[vale wharf]

Joker stickers were at 585 yesterday

[floral mural]

idk i never voucher skip especially wtih 3 whole dollars

[west python]

oh my gosh ts shi saving my run
i got blue print in next shop(but i had to sold banner and base joker)

[quartz ember]

seems like youve just made your situation worse

[vale wharf]

Is there any setup that would let you play a hand that triggers both the trio and the order?

[quartz ember]

unless steel joker is really high

[floral mural]

how much is that steel joker

[west python]

1.4x 🙏

[floral mural]

dead next ante if not next round

this was a terrible exchange

[vale wharf]

You're cooked

[west python]

yuh i am

[floral mural]

all your scoring for a blueprint that wont last to ante 8

also dont skip so much

[quartz ember]

wait its perishable I didnt even notice xD

[west python]

i also didnt 🙏

anyways im dead and in new run

[floral mural]

a real ⁉️ moment

[west python]

I'm not really good at game so I dunno what to do with eternal jokers

[floral mural]

its buffoon pack first either way

[distant vault]

Are you most comfortable with yellow. If yes then yes

[west python]

mystic summit and reverse parking both rental and eternal 💀

[floral mural]

then skip

feels like take paintbrush and play next round then

[west python]

k

[quartz ember]

you can always take an eternal joker, and you can take more if they are really good/ fit your build

[floral mural]

idk if id commit to an eternal delgrat or baseball card at the start

bbc is expensive and kinda xmult before it matters if that makes sense

[next jay]

elloo chat im new to balatro

[floral mural]

delgrat kinda just sucks

[quartz ember]

helloo

[west python]

o a good voucher
25% discount

[winged vault]

alright, wish me luck

[west python]

gl

[floral mural]

like its usable econ but not good

[winged vault]

thanks for the luck lol

[west python]

W

[winged vault]

I was cutting it close with that one

[west python]

hm looks like i should buy clearence sale and skip

[west python]

.

[frank grove]

you shouldnt skip too much

[winged vault]

when I found throwback, my life got a little easier lol

[west python]

i mean leave the shop

[lost vault]

you shouldnt skip at all basically

[frank grove]

yeah

[winged vault]

had 3 glass jokers going into that blind

[frank grove]

yeah

unless investment ante one

[next jay]

should i sell smiley joker?

[lost vault]

no lmao

[winged vault]

why?

[frank grove]

for better stencil

[lost vault]

you’d literally just lose mult

[frank grove]

but probably not needed

[winged vault]

if anything, that stencil will become useless

[next jay]

to get 3× mult

[lost vault]

see: polychrome

2*1.5 = 3

[next jay]

ohhh trueee

[lost vault]

its rhe same amount of xmult

also its technically a little better to put the glass card to the eight

right

[next jay]

ts my best run in the game so far

[lost vault]

probably negligible though

[next jay]

i got my first legendary on this run

[next jay]

okokk

why tho?

[lost vault]

becuz

uh

smiley

lol

thats loterally it

i told u it was negligible

but might as well

[next jay]

i got ectoplasm lol

so now it will be ×3

[waxen fable]

If u have encountered psychic or plant that chicot is a sell

I respect chigoat but . Hes not the best in this situation

[next jay]

i forget what i got in big blinds

whats plant and psychic do

[waxen fable]

Plant will disable all your face cards

[frank grove]

pyschic it play 5 iirc

[waxen fable]

Psychic u need 5 cards minimum for a hand

[next jay]

i got this blind early

[waxen fable]

Have u encountered psychic

[next jay]

ouuu thats a run killer

naw i havent

[waxen fable]

I mean the blind scaling is gonna be the one that will potentially kill the run anyway

[next jay]

😭😭😭😭

do u mean pair run is bad

[quartz ember]

absolutely not

in general

but you are in endless mode

[ember turtle]

free jimbo!!!

i'd pick shortcut and then try to get saturns

you can also sell jimbo for overstock ig

if you're feeling lucky

[shadow spruce]

i mean sure

[fiery nymph]

you picked hack right

😅

[shadow spruce]

i picked the one that didn't take space

because who knows if hack is even gonna help

[lament smelt]

https://medal.tv/games/balatro/clips/lJR9ipC87gueq__rB?invite=cr-MSxYN3gsMjU0NTQ5MTM3&v=38 quickest boss blind ever😭

[shadow spruce]

this is a nutty ass ante 8 win

ancient on hearts so i can just skip to the end

[jaunty crescent]

Hmm. Think i might need more blue seals

[brisk bluff]

💔

[shadow spruce]

brutal

[humble hound]

taking a break from black deck to try erratic felt like a blessing

[shadow spruce]

you should try blue deck white stake

[humble hound]

you're right, a vacation would be nice

[manic talon]

I LOVE BLOODSTONE GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

[last bolt]

how can i find a way to hate every deck

[shadow spruce]

is 88/150 a good number of gold stickers yet

[late mango]

photochad build of doom and despair (for blinds)

[fiery nymph]

all blinds except

[late mango]

we dont talk about that one

[manic talon]

If you havent get to the 25 jokers left it should go pretty fast

[late mango]

the crazy part is 3 wheels out of 3 triggered for now

[last bolt]

um

[fringe crest]

good morning all

[late mango]

thank you, showman

[fringe crest]

wait until you hear about my double eternal showman gold stake win

i didnt know the first one was eternal then i had the guarenteed win and sold my econ joker at the end for another one

[humble hound]

[last bolt]

i think its time

[fallow briar]

I had a showman but I had to sell for second Chad to get a bit more scoring cuz I was literally gonna die if I didnt

[last bolt]

I was too lazy to do orange on some of these
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |

But I think it's time I do black

[wary flicker]

The determination to say al those emojis haha

Red deck was my first gold

[sonic sinew]

What's worse, wheel of fortune not paying out at all or wheel of fortune making a joker foil?

[obsidian patrol]

foil jokers are great actually

[frank grove]

foil is pretty nice

[shadow spruce]

heyyy i gold stickered popcorn!

scary face and hack as well

[fiery nymph]

i like foil

[sonic sinew]

yeah but you could get holo or poly

[fiery nymph]

chips are great

[shadow spruce]

dude foil is good

[sonic sinew]

foil doesn't seem to be too useful to me

[frank grove]

chips are scare 10 mult is not

[shadow spruce]

+50 chips can absolutely carry when chips are scarce

[sonic sinew]

ok you convinced me

awesome!!!

[fiery nymph]

if you have pure mult jokers foil is amazing

[steel chasm]

rate my second ever run
