[hasty harness]

sell trib for square

[dreamy creek]

time to gamble

bloodstone time

[hasty harness]

trib is +50 from foil but square can scale to more then + 50 chips

[dreamy creek]

[tranquil steppe]

Shadys back? Tell a friend?

[quartz ember]

there isnt

[swift shoal]

Okay thanks

[calm furnace]

now this shows up

[tranquil steppe]

You’ll still get a flush if you have vampire and one of your played cards is a wildcard with an underlying suit that is different from the flush you’re playing

[wintry ice]

i feel like more economy is better than more scoring at this point

[calm furnace]

ughh why eternal

[tranquil steppe]

Economy schmemonomy

[tranquil steppe]

Do it

[calm furnace]

nah will reroll for showman or dust

dusk

[wintry ice]

this sounds like an easy trip to ante 16

[calm furnace]

yeah 16 is the max i could get

this got to 18

[brittle temple]

eternal jimbo carried

[ember turtle]

balatro is so hard

[brittle temple]

balatro is so soft

[calm furnace]

fr

[brittle temple]

why do you have an eternal chad in both runs

[calm furnace]

lets goo

[calm furnace]

i love eternal chad

money shots come on

i guesss i can pivot to glass

got the ecto

will photo do anything here?

[lunar zealot]

how can i emphasize no in the biggest way possible

[calm furnace]

dont have much econ to reroll for dusk

[lunar zealot]

No

there we go

refer to this guide

Photo is bad trib which is good idol which is bad aj which is good bloodstone which is bad photo

[humble gulch]

No way

[calm furnace]

my econ 😭

[calm furnace]

wait how did i only get to ante 18 here?

[deft sandal]

bro be taking everyone’s econ source 😔

[calm furnace]

thats a fumble

[vague sequoia]

Prettiest card in the game

[deft sandal]

Negative eternal Jimbo just carrying the team like he always do

[stark karma]

How tf do you win jokerless I’m genuinely tweaking

[deft sandal]

Make glass, blue seal, planet packs

[stark karma]

Oh yeah just get a blue seal

[calm furnace]

its weird 3 tribs and died to ante 18

[stark karma]

It’s that easy

[calm furnace]

i was hella drunk when i had that run

dont remember how i lost

[deft sandal]

And try to find polychrome, but not necessary

Best case scenario is like finding polychrome red seal glass card, but the chances are low, like really really low

[atomic trout]

An Eternal Lusty Joker is love forever 🤣

[calm furnace]

moment of truf

wait i should copy trib twice

[lime dirge]

the needle has to be the hardest ante to bear right?

[calm furnace]

i lost e25

[calm furnace]

boss or challenge?

[lime dirge]

this geinuely looks like insanity wtf is high level balatro

[lime dirge]

boss

[calm furnace]

depends

needle can be easy

it has lower score requieremnt

it sucks when you dont form your hand with the 2 discards

or when its very early ante and you still dont have planets or jokers

[lost vault]

this is not high level balatro

its just endless

[void topaz]

what is mail in rebate doing when your about to lose

[lime dirge]

naturlich, but i always find myself losing at it cuz i go for consistent medium score

[lime dirge]

i meant high ante

mb

what is high level balatro then???

[void topaz]

whatever balatro university is doing

[lime dirge]

ngl impressed that i beat balatro for the first time within 3.2 hours

thought it would take longer

[calm furnace]

nice skip

[fickle mesa]

its consistently beating gold stake

[distant vault]

Poly skip haters in shambles

[lime dirge]

jibberish, can you translate this into non-balatro player?

what is poly skip

[void topaz]

people who dislike skipping a blind in order to gain a polychromge tag

[lime dirge]

idiots?

[void topaz]

um

[fickle mesa]

its not idiotic its very smart

polychrome is just not that strong

[void topaz]

this is the incorrect way to respond to this

[regal sigil]

only rewards not worth skipping are the 25 dollars or double the money imo

[void topaz]

erm actually it is NOT idiotic its actually very intellectual you just wouldnt get it smh my head

[lime dirge]

doesnt polychrome give a multi boost?

[calm furnace]

1.5x

[distant vault]

It gives x1.5 mult

[fickle mesa]

its not strong enough to justify missing out on an entire shop and round of money

[lime dirge]

yeah so its not nad

[distant vault]

Poly skip my beloved

[void topaz]

it can be sometimes

[fickle mesa]

it is bad a shop and round of money are far stronger

[void topaz]

lets say your above white stake

[fickle mesa]

not ante 1

[lime dirge]

depends, what if its first bind of the red chips (first bind gives no money)

[void topaz]

what if your only gonna make 1 dollar from small blind

[lime dirge]

yh

[fickle mesa]

you still get money from leftover hands and you still get a shop

[regal sigil]

which rewards do you guys not skip

[fickle mesa]

you still get a shop

[unreal iron]

in general you never skip

[fickle mesa]

early investment

[lime dirge]

what if shop rng is just horrid

[void topaz]

yeah but you also save the money the joker wouldve cost with the poly skip

[fickle mesa]

how are u supposed to know that without checking the shop

[regal sigil]

even if the small blinds dont give you any money?

[unreal iron]

more money = less rng

[unreal iron]

yes

[shell dagger]

Then skipping doesn’t make that any better

You still see that dogshit shop one round later

[lime dirge]

gambling, this is balatro

[shell dagger]

Bc it’s in the same ante

[regal sigil]

i dont think so

[fickle mesa]

you dont understand you still get money from small blinds through interest and leftover hands

[distant vault]

I always send my poly skips here to start the argument

[fickle mesa]

thats assuming you dont have any econ jokers

[flat warren]

Why is this bean so gay

[lime dirge]

so me coded

[void topaz]

no yeah but theres no interest round 1 and red stake and above your getting no blind money

[fickle mesa]

omg you're so subversive

[distant vault]

Because its for you

[red thistle]

2015 meme compilations.

[ocean lily]

forbidden somthing somthing

[fickle mesa]

round 1 its crucial to check the shop there

[distant vault]

Poly skip bad. Say the line

[regal sigil]

yeah but for interest you need money i usually skip at early game

[void topaz]

lowkey just play 2 flushes big blind you got this king

[regal sigil]

and rarely if i have 40 dollars late game

[ocean lily]

btw if dagger is left of an eternal, will it still scale

[flat warren]

I had a stroke trying to read your name and I fucking died

[fickle mesa]

dont misgender me

[red thistle]

Rude.

[ocean lily]

no, no it wont):

[lime dirge]

ima be so fr balatro bout to be a game a play whenever im bored

[void topaz]

queen doesnt quite give the same impact there you feel me

[calm furnace]

ante 1 small blind investment tag is always a skip

[lime dirge]

but never gain

[distant vault]

Enjoy !!

[calm furnace]

if you dont skip that you have 0 ball knowledge

[red thistle]

Not in black deck.

[shell dagger]

or playing black deck in a streak

[regal sigil]

ofc

[fickle mesa]

i wonder if this means anything about the way you perceive women 🤔

[void topaz]

no but like imagine it

[regal sigil]

at gold stake we restart for 100 hundred times for 25 dollars boss reward

[distant vault]

If you don't skip you are not cool. Its that simple

[lime dirge]

ngl im kinda sad that each difficulty is locked behind each deck

[void topaz]

king has like meme history

you can imagine refrences

[lime dirge]

id like to try harder difficulties with different decks

[void topaz]

references fuck

[fickle mesa]

people call other people queen too

[regal sigil]

people call me a loser

[void topaz]

yeah but its 1 step away from the original reference

[fickle mesa]

granted id like to be called neither since i dont like either but of the two id rather not get called a man

[distant vault]

Um

Anyways

[calm furnace]

call me a skipper

[distant vault]

So how bout that square joker

[regal sigil]

slayyy queeen

[void topaz]

big stepper underground methods

[candid niche]

...well. not sure how well canio fits into the run

[fickle mesa]

men will go crazy lengths just to not gender you properly

[lime dirge]

btw can someone rate the winning build i got, i wanna see if people agree that i built it well

[distant vault]

Dont generalize

[fickle mesa]

this is a perfect canio setup

[candid niche]

its my first time finding him. idk how to use

[red thistle]

You never put your pronouns in your profile though.

[regal sigil]

she is a cat/fairy

[candid niche]

(based based based) waow

[calm furnace]

im a chi/cot

[red thistle]

Not saying it isn't obvious but you should if you want people who care to not misgender you.

[lime dirge]

huh?

[fickle mesa]

must i put red arrows there as well

[lime dirge]

did they misgender you

??

[unreal island]

Hi chat i got a tobacious fox hat

[regal sigil]

i've never heard of somebody using it as their pronoun

[void topaz]

he makes merch?

[regal sigil]

interesting

[unreal island]

Also suselle

[lime dirge]

peak

[distant vault]

It

[red thistle]

Neither.

[distant vault]

How do you even use it

Where is it

[fickle mesa]

i was called "king"

[zealous saffron]

thank you invisible joker

[fickle mesa]

"she went to the store"
"it went to the store"

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[eternal pumice]

[distant vault]

Damn

[candid niche]

i hate The Eye so much

[calm furnace]

imagine if that looped

[zealous saffron]

with my luck today i was fully expecting it

[candid niche]

if only...

i can't sack anyone for it

[fickle mesa]

i also hate bloodstone

[distant vault]

Let's see what poly skip gives me

[calm furnace]

half?

[fickle mesa]

hornet silksong do u also hate polychrome skip

[calm furnace]

why do you want 10 flat mult jokers

[lime dirge]

ok, nvm i wouldve given them benefit of doubt if they misgendered you female because of the fujoshi tag

[candid niche]

it would take 20 hands just to compete

[serene forge]

rental perishable the family

[regal sigil]

misprint is the best joker

just sayin

[candid niche]

canio is going to carry my xmult

[serene forge]

yea

[calm furnace]

whats groker and supernova at

[fickle mesa]

fwiw i am a girl

[distant vault]

It just needs to be enough

Gimme joker idc

[candid niche]

groker at 45, nova at 31 pairs played

[calm furnace]

yeah that 20 aint doing much you need chips

[fickle mesa]

i dont necessarily care if anyone gets that or doesnt get that intuitively though since my relationship to being a girl is complicated

[calm furnace]

reroll for a chip joker

[candid niche]

finally found a Hanged Man to scale canio

[calm furnace]

bloker or smth

[candid niche]

i have a foil Sly giving me 100

[fickle mesa]

but i am not a man

[lime dirge]

huh??? so your pronouns are it/its but your a girl?? confusing

[candid niche]

i got canio to x4, we're winning now

[fickle mesa]

gender is a fuck

[distant vault]

Damn

[calm furnace]

yeah but you have 71 mult from jokers, you dont need more mult but you could do with more chiips

[lime dirge]

ik, still confusing

[fickle mesa]

99% of people dont need to know the specifics of my gender though

[serene forge]

so close

[candid niche]

relax, i'm looking for planets too

[fickle mesa]

so i dont really care how much it confuses others

[calm furnace]

just saying half joker aint doing much there

[red thistle]

Hornet silksong, what's your opinion on the current matter regarding how the united states government treats transgenders.

[calm furnace]

and being able to play 5 cards will retain more value if you have gold cards or seals

[regal sigil]

tbh i dont look at peoples profiles to check their pronouns

but dont call them by a gender either

[lime dirge]

bad or good deck build?

[fickle mesa]

the using it/its part as a girl mostly makes sense to me id argue theres more confusing parts

[serene forge]

please don't say transgenders

the right word is transgender people

[void topaz]

6 jacks isnt bad but i feel like you want less in general

[regal sigil]

it makes sense or it doesnt thats not important

[serene forge]

and I think my opinion on that is pretty obvious

[void topaz]

more hung men need to be utilised

[candid niche]

or i could sack J_k_r for The Duo

[regal sigil]

people can call you a king that doesnt mean that you are being misgendered imo

[void topaz]

its like guys fr

[fickle mesa]

yes it does

[lime dirge]

oh its a dead run, yeah i didnt have many chances to remove low number cards

[fickle mesa]

king is a male term

[void topaz]

3 +mult is not needed

lowest can do

[candid niche]

my liege

....oh. its perishable :(

thats sad

[regal sigil]

ok you are not a guy but you are not a king either

[serene forge]

if you misgender someone and get corrected you should respect that

[red thistle]

I said that awhile ago and they said i sound like how news casters or something talk about them which, wasn't good. Also sorry.

[candid niche]

i got a Bloker. are you happy now?

[regal sigil]

yeah ofc but i dont think calling somebody king is misgendering

[red thistle]

Safest bet is they/them but even that not everyone will accept it so viewing people's profiles is pretty helpful.

[void topaz]

you didnt take duo?

[hybrid tendon]

it quite literally is

[fickle mesa]

please tell me the definition of king

[candid niche]

it was perishable

[fickle mesa]

go onto google and tell me what king means

[frank grove]

tripling down from the top ropes!!

[fickle mesa]

go on

[serene forge]

its not unnatural to assume genders but when people tell you their identity you should follow that or you're just a dick

[void topaz]

but you win like

now

[candid niche]

:|

[fickle mesa]

its gonna be gender neutral right? google will give you a gender neutral definition?

[void topaz]

are you planning on going endless?

[serene forge]

it quite literally is, though if you're referencing a joke then obviously that's not malicious

[candid niche]

yeah probably

[serene forge]

but if you double down on it then it does become malicious

[void topaz]

ok i implore you to imagine this

[regal sigil]

it is not a joke its nothing

[void topaz]

you have eternal sly joker and eternal bloker

[regal sigil]

does not mean anything

its like saying bro or pal

[fickle mesa]

king has a definition

[serene forge]

then why are we talking about this

[hybrid tendon]

bro is not gender neutral my guy wtf

[fickle mesa]

BRO LITERALLY MEANS BROTHER

[hybrid tendon]

pal, sure wtv but bro ??

[lime dirge]

wife is gendered female, like queen
husband is gendered male, like king

[calm furnace]

yes

[serene forge]

bro can be used neutrally and not, if people don't want to be called bro though just don't

[void topaz]

you guys dont call your friends that are girls bro?

[frank grove]

the "go on king" thing is kindof a meme but like if someone doesnt like being called it then you should just respect it instead of quadroupling down on the idea

[regal sigil]

do you guys get offended

[void topaz]

what

[candid niche]

yeah the correct play here is "my leige"

[regal sigil]

when somebody says hey guys

[candid niche]

i am imagining

[red thistle]

Bro did kind of get gender neutral overtime but not like dawg.

[void topaz]

bringing a run to endless is like

[serene forge]

I hate Photograph

[void topaz]

are you playing flush five or high card

[candid niche]

pair

[void topaz]

ok yeah so its not

[lime dirge]

no because bro and pal have different connotation(? cant find right word)

[hybrid tendon]

you're comparing a 1 on 1 context to a group context ?

[candid niche]

i mean, i'm at Bell already

[distant vault]

I died

[void topaz]

yeah you can win the run which is why id take duo

cause everything pastthis is like a big wall

not the boss blind

well

[fickle mesa]

for what its worth guys is also gendered

[regal sigil]

yes it is

[hybrid tendon]

also no, not when someone says hey guys and a group is majorly composed of guys, but if you tell my "My guy" and then claim to use it gener neutrally, you're just a bother

[regal sigil]

but colloquialy isnt

[lime dirge]

guys is also gendered, but i feel like its taken differently from king

[fickle mesa]

how many women do u talk to

if its so gender neutral

[regal sigil]

lmao

[lime dirge]

yeah

[hybrid tendon]

it is colloquially too tho

[lime dirge]

like "hey guys" is more neutral imo

because people generally use it now for a group of people you know

[candid niche]

if only i had a perkeo. i found observatory

[distant vault]

I love my game discussion

[void topaz]

real

[distant vault]

One sane person here

[void topaz]

if only i had 3 barons i got a high card level

[terse vale]

lowkey yap just say sorry and move on

[fickle mesa]

you're so funny

[lime dirge]

youre right, but this is entertaining

[distant vault]

Thanks

[candid niche]

i guess i should be opening standards for the sake of Bloker

[lime dirge]

yh

[regal sigil]

even if calling somebody king misgendering i wasnt the one who did that

lol

[fickle mesa]

nah dont do this

[lime dirge]

then stfu

[void topaz]

im ngl

this will not affect a thing

[hybrid tendon]

yet you argued it wasn't

[fickle mesa]

bloker doesnt rly scale

[void topaz]

the runs over this ante anyway

[fickle mesa]

and its not worth the deck bloat

[void topaz]

unless canios at like x20 or something

[bleak hemlock]

oops

[regal sigil]

block me then dumbass

[void topaz]

now hear me out

open the debug menu

[candid niche]

[void topaz]

oxymoron of a sentence

[bleak hemlock]

[regal sigil]

[bleak hemlock]

story of my lif- PAUSE

[regal sigil]

very mature beahviour

[void topaz]

canio gets to x6 or x1 theres no in between fr

[candid niche]

i even passed up on a early Trading card back in ante 4.

[lime dirge]

stop malting and drop it like a mature person bro this balatro not debate central

[candid niche]

well i made it to ante 11

[terse vale]

[void topaz]

this is why trading card is always a pick up tust

trust

[void topaz]

ante 11 lowkey a gatekeeper

[lime dirge]

that sucks

[serene forge]

fucking gatekeeper

[candid niche]

maybe i can take heiroglyph to get more canio scaling?

[void topaz]

ts is not saving you

[hybrid tendon]

I am

[regal sigil]

blocked and moved on

[serene forge]

[void topaz]

its time to hold the r button fr

[candid niche]

its worth a shot

[hybrid tendon]

[candid niche]

...i got the wall....

[void topaz]

i guess you could find trib

and like

5 red seal kings

and dusk

and blueprint

[candid niche]

how would trib help? i killed all my face cards

[lime dirge]

he looks scared for his life bro 😭

[candid niche]

i got canio to x12 :D

[void topaz]

im thinking of things that can save you quickly

uhhh

like a negative invis that hits canio

[lime dirge]

the tarot joker is like really good? i feel like its really good

[candid niche]

oh, neat

[void topaz]

me when tarots are good

[serene forge]

five copies of negative baron and mime in the showman

[fickle mesa]

that could be any joker

[candid niche]

i got polychrome on my supernova from a wheel

thanks, wheel

[void topaz]

its almost certainly cartomancer

[fickle mesa]

but id argue all tarot generating jokers are good

[serene forge]

superposition:

[fickle mesa]

superposition is good id say

[lime dirge]

i mean the joker that gives multi per tarot played mb

[fickle mesa]

just the worst of them all

[serene forge]

I think its the worst one

[fickle mesa]

oh

[void topaz]

OH

[fickle mesa]

thats uh

i mean

[serene forge]

its not particularly good because ace straight is the worst straight

[void topaz]

we are on different wave lengths

[candid niche]

i lost.....

[fickle mesa]

its not very good

[serene forge]

mid

[bleak hemlock]

No way is that a car in a bike water holder 🗣️

[candid niche]

sucks :(

[red thistle]

It's b tier in zodiac i suppose.

[lime dirge]

i ALWAYS use tarot so it always builds up to like 20+

[candid niche]

it was a fun run though

[fickle mesa]

even on zodiac its just

[distant vault]

Fuck showman

[void topaz]

dont worry there will be more to come

[fickle mesa]

yeah 20+ is not that good for a scaling joker

[red thistle]

Yea you need to empty your wallet 3 times over.

[candid niche]

and i unlocked canio in the Jimbodex

[fickle mesa]

you can get like red card up to like 60 or 70

[candid niche]

[rotund igloo]

Grimbo and bus are better scaling mult jokers imo

[lime dirge]

im sorry

[void topaz]

bus is so goated lowkey

[distant vault]

Bus my love

[candid niche]

amazing

no jacks, no 10s

[void topaz]

MORE

[fickle mesa]

[void topaz]

5 kings is not nearly enough

[red thistle]

Bro's ITCHING for attention.

[candid niche]

oh boy, Trib would be great in this deck

[distant vault]

Um

[void topaz]

i hate to break it to you

trib is good on every deck

its the boss blind that does you in

[candid niche]

[void topaz]

early value generators are so strong

[lost vault]

holy moly how’d i not notice

[void topaz]

this is like that one post where professor X suddenly gets up

[lost vault]

"my mutant power is knowing how many pulls it takes to turn on a ceiling light"

[regal sigil]

we greed for a royal flush ante 1 small blind

[lost vault]

earclacks fan!!!

[candid niche]

[lost vault]

you dont even need a strush to one shot

[red thistle]

It's been out AGES ago. (2 days)

[candid niche]

i am one of Lance's fans since before he took down the tyrant Duplicator

[void topaz]

at some point you figure out you need a total of 40 or more chips to get through ante 1 with a flush

[regal sigil]

its still a royal flush tho..

[red thistle]

Been a sword fan from the beginning.

[void topaz]

what

[candid niche]

alright Wheel

[lost vault]

i like grimoire he so whimsical

[void topaz]

insane seed

pick up the sock trust

[candid niche]

grimoire when he meets Shield

[rotund igloo]

Love me a poly hit

[lost vault]

best matchup ever

[candid niche]

well the other arcana pack gave me a Herman, so i can pick up the sock if i want to

might be worth just for Terrance value

[fickle mesa]

i love grimoire it always brings out like the funkiest matchups

[red thistle]

Rabbits with a very sustainable food source and a good environment:

[fickle mesa]

its worth it speculatively

like if u find a gold seal face card

[void topaz]

its time to cut your whole deck and go idol i didnt make up the rules

[candid niche]

i don't know how i feel about the 2 newcomers Boomerang and Axe

[red thistle]

The potential balls.

[candid niche]

Axe just feels like Lance but RNG instead of "skill"

[red thistle]

Just like lance.

[candid niche]

and boomerang is just wack as fuck

[void topaz]

bro this is some horse race test type shi

[candid niche]

also, uh, shuriken needs something better than bounces

[lost vault]

exactly

[candid niche]

his scaling literally doesnt do anything past like 10 hits

wow, Balatro, i don't know what to say

[lost vault]

i mean what if the projectiles also bounced off of the opponent instead of expiring when hitting them

[candid niche]

(idk if paraidolia is worth here)

[red thistle]

Despite the fans' reaction, the unarmed nerf was possibly the best decision earclacks made.

[fickle mesa]

do u have luckies

[void topaz]

i wouldnt

[candid niche]

no. i havent found any enhancements yet

fair

the only problem is that i have no 10s, so walkie is uh... pretty bad

[strange sentinel]

Do you take the scholar here and drop the foil stuntman? Playing 5oak

[fickle mesa]

id say without any retrigger value effects parei isnt worth it

[candid niche]

fair enough

well, i found Halutena

tarot generator go

[void topaz]

what is more

300 chips

or uhhh whatever scholar is i forgot

100 chips

right?

[strange sentinel]

20chips+4mult per ace

So 100chips+20mult

[void topaz]

yeah so 100

[tranquil steppe]

Now you just need FT

[candid niche]

someone dies here for Drunkard, right?

[candid niche]

what is ft

[tranquil steppe]

Fort Tell

[candid niche]

i see

[tranquil steppe]

The one who gives you good fortune

[candid niche]

i want drunkard for Rebate value, but idk if i can afford to sell anyone

[lost vault]

it would be if fans liked it but earclacks is all about hype

[candid niche]

...sock isnt doing too much, but he's speculative

[strange sentinel]

Too much value generating and too little scoring for my taste but yea

[candid niche]

yeah either unarmed gets removed from the league, or we suffered ridiculously boring fights

[candid niche]

who dies then

[strange sentinel]

Tarot-man for me

[ocean lily]

I just beat fragile 1st attempt, when i was looking at it i thought dna was only way to get cards, but it would be useless without bp/bs, and i got bp right as i was thinking run is dead, then later got photo chad, and died from playing flush 5, and simultaneously destroying rest of my deck, man that was fun(:

[strange sentinel]

But Im no seasoned gamer

[candid niche]

is that carter or hal

[fickle mesa]

wait what was the unarmed nerf

[candid niche]

his scaling was cut in half

[fickle mesa]

im a newer enjoyer so i dont know all the lore

[ocean lily]

Oh, and right before this i beat the challenge where u get eternal vampire

[fickle mesa]

ahhh i see

[candid niche]

originally his max speed/damage would increase by 1 on hit, but now its 0.5

[strange sentinel]

Either one honestly

[candid niche]

prime unarmed was a menace. almost nobody could compete

[strange sentinel]

Carter gives more than hal on average

[tranquil steppe]

Well we worship Lord Canio, Yorick is our boiiiii, and bloodstone forgives all sins

[ocean lily]

Yeah, fr
#-what does/did it do, im dumdum

[candid niche]

....kind of sucks that the ranged balls don't see much action these days

Bow, Shuriken, and Staff might suck, but we can't have a melee-focused meta

[ocean lily]

Imagine bottom text tiny._.

[ocean lily]

Wait, that aint about balatro is it._.

🦥<------ thats me

[fickle mesa]

i was referring to earclacks lol

ive been playing balatro for the past year

[fickle mesa]

there was a new staff today

[lost vault]

earclacks gave him boots as a weapon that face in the direction he was travelling and inherit his damage/speed

[candid niche]

so basically in the Earclacks weapon ball tournament, 2 balls bounce around in an arena with rotating weapons. each ball has a different weapon, except Unarmed, which did damage on impact. this was a really interesting ball since it can't parry anything (parries are when 2 weapons collide) but can't be parried itself, meaning every impact is free damage. its entire body was a hitbox compared to balls like Sword who only have one hitbox. Unarmed's scaling was that it increased its max speed and damage on hit, meaning it scaled basically exponentially compared to balls like Sword who only scaled damage.

[ocean lily]

I saw few shorts on it, isnt there like a full on mobile game for it or am i hallucinating?

[candid niche]

not really, since each shop has 2 packs = 2 50/50s for hal to roll = on average 1 card per shop. hal also scales with oops, so i'm dropping carter

[candid niche]

not an official mobile game. its all simulations

[fickle mesa]

they should let orbital compete with the weapon balls and let its planets parry attacks

[lost vault]

i think its something earclacks is working on according to his website

[lost vault]

impenetrable shield

[fickle mesa]

(they should not do this)

[candid niche]

i don't like orbital

[lost vault]

i like orbital

[candid niche]

orbital is just slammy but cooler

do i sack anyone for Scary?

[meager quarry]

hello chat

im new here :D

[fickle mesa]

what are ur planet levels at

[lost vault]

AHH!

[candid niche]

hi "new here", i'm not

[candid niche]

none. i havent found any planets

[lost vault]

i’m skinku

skinku

skinky

[fickle mesa]

this honestly looks like a pretty rough spot unless ur playing like level 15 pairs

okay def take scary face for survival

[candid niche]

who dies?

[fickle mesa]

probably drunkard?

[candid niche]

damn

[fickle mesa]

oh wait

white stake

idk the scaling

you might be fine then how much have u been scoring

[candid niche]

i scored ~6000 with a full house with Scary

i don't really need the rebate value from drunkard, since i have seed money

[fickle mesa]

mhm

[candid niche]

finally found a magician

....no lucky hits

drunkard is back

amazing

[bleak blaze]

Obelisk runs gotta be the most fun kind of run in the game

[woven spire]

mmmmmmm.

[wintry ice]

you're stinky

[lost vault]

TwT

[barren wigeon]

sell it

trust

[woven spire]

i died

lmao

[barren wigeon]

ha

[woven spire]

trash draws in the pillar

[calm furnace]

how

[woven spire]

.

[candid niche]

my gros michel is still alive in ante 6

...maybe.

do i sack michel for photo?

[barren wigeon]

card levels?

[candid niche]

11 kings also

[latent egret]

did you sell a constellation?

[barren wigeon]

... and you are playing what hand

[latent egret]

cause holy shit

[candid niche]

5oak

[barren wigeon]

ew

[candid niche]

huh

no i just found a lucky black hole

[lost vault]

you just taking any planet atp

[heady patio]

Hey there. Just want to check something.
I have Raised Fist, and I'm playing The Head. I'm thinking of having a play that leaves 2 6s for a potential pair, and them being the lowest ranked cards(cause I have Even Steven also). One of the 2 6's is a debuffed heart, though. And I saw on reddit that debuffed cards also apply to Raised Fist's lowest ranked. So my question is, is there a way to ensure that it picks the 6 of Clubs as the lowest rather than the 6 of hearts? Is it random? Or does it register if even one of the two isn't debuffed?

[dense cipher]

I got defeated by the plant on ante 9 immediately after, I wanna cry

[candid niche]

is Face better than Face here?

[late bay]

This deck took me longer than it should have to complete on gold -.-

[ocean yoke]

Face

[candid niche]

no but like actually

[shell dagger]

depends on what hands you’re playing and hand levels

likely smiley is better because of the foils though

[candid niche]

fair

[shell dagger]

but you have more info than me

[wintry ice]

most of the smiley triggers won't be affected by photo

it falls off lategame

[candid niche]

yeah i'm killing smiley for a lucky cat

[late bay]

Just erratic, yellow, and blue decks left to get to gold then I can move on to challenge decks

[wintry ice]

great start

hm

is this worth using alongside faceless

i have very few 8s too because of an immolate

[ember turtle]

mr bones is my favourite 4x mult joker

[wintry ice]

neat

[candid niche]

who would die in service of Oops!

[wintry ice]

ig i sell faceless now

[wintry ice]

i guess rebate or photo

[wintry ice]

wait

should i try a bootleg hologram with eternal dna

[magic tree]

izi

[coral drum]

Gang if I had an eternal riff raff

[wintry ice]

you don't need it

god i really need chips

ok that's good too

[terse vale]

madness doesn’t need jokers to scale

its just a simple drawback

[magic tree]

I just beat my previous win streak lol

||it was 3||

[obsidian patrol]

madness dont need jokers

[bleak hemlock]

madly gay

or

gayly mad?

[wintry ice]

silliness

sacrifice

is this worth getting rid of pants for

fuck it why not

lmao

[celest bridge]

idk it just did

[void topaz]

its been an hour dawg

[jolly relic]

hello

[tawny radish]

do i buy dagger and let it eat chicot (which would give it +20mult) the next boss would be wall (80k)

[jolly relic]

is chicot deactivating the boss blind not better

[tawny radish]

idk im thinking about it

[jolly relic]

dagger can still scale afterwards

but

[tawny radish]

im ante 6 so i would hgave to face a bigger boss soon anyway

[tawny radish]

and that

[lost vault]

chicot reduces the wall’s size -_-

[tawny radish]

i know

[lost vault]

no, keep chicot

[tawny radish]

okay then

[atomic trout]

The Ox? Big deal.

Fuuuu....

[void topaz]

big deal indeed

[atomic trout]

I have no other hands 🤣

[void topaz]

as opposed to the small big deal

and/or the big small deal

this is of course not mentioning medium big deals

[tawny radish]

what about regular size deals though

[void topaz]

yeah thats what i meant

just pretend i said medium size deals there

[atomic trout]

That went bad

6 hands

[tawny radish]

me when i dont read boss blinds because i forgot i dont have chicot anymore

[void topaz]

did you sell chicot?

[tawny radish]

so theres this guy

lets call him dagger

[void topaz]

one cool thing about dagger

[tawny radish]

^prelore btw

[void topaz]

its an uncommon joker

oh lol i missed the required reading

[tawny radish]

playing dagger is such a scary game

[void topaz]

this is why i dont play dagger

i littearly did on the knifes edge jokerless

[tawny radish]

when i lowkey start a blind but i forgot i left dagger next to bp so dagger genuinely anihalates bp

[void topaz]

me when my dagger lowkenuily eats up my mail in rebate for +6mult

is it +4 mult?

its one of those

[spare granite]

[tawny radish]

its double sell val

idk what sell val mail reb has

[void topaz]

yeah idk if it sells for 2 or 3

[void topaz]

bro this sentence is insane

[tawny radish]

lmaoo

i use too many abbreviations*

[void topaz]

typa shit william shakespeare wouldve been praised for writing

lowkenuily reinventing language

[tawny radish]

bro i forgot i dont have money i missed put on an spectral pack

i dont like ox

[void topaz]

me when i hate oxen

[spice glen]

I got this amazing start and proceeded to not get a single good scoring joker afterwards

[void topaz]

bro

[pale wolf]

eeh

[void topaz]

you have THE scoring joker

right there

[pale wolf]

trib sucks

[spice glen]

idk man perkeo didn’t score much

[void topaz]

what are we saying

[spice glen]

especially on abandoned deck

[distant vault]

Poly skip so bad

[void topaz]

oh

its abandonded

[pale wolf]

I would have just sold him to find an actual scoring Joker

because stencil is not that good of a start either to be honest

[void topaz]

twice today abandonded has made me look like a fool when referring to trib

[pale wolf]

I might sell trib on other decks in this situation too

[void topaz]

how what

[pale wolf]

trib just kind of suck

[void topaz]

ohh ghost deck

[spice glen]

I kept rerolling and I got delayed gratification like 5 times

[void topaz]

just dont run into the plant

[distant vault]

I'll make it work.

[void topaz]

ez

[distant vault]

Trust me.

[pale wolf]

That's not the only issue with trib lol

[distant vault]

Have faith

[pale wolf]

8 cards out of 52 to use

[void topaz]

ive never lost with trib if not to the plant

just use 1 hung man and 1 death

[spice glen]

The only times I lost with trib were the times I played abandoned

[pale wolf]

I don't believe you, or I don't think you're talking about high-stake gameplay

[spice glen]

Which is kinda funny

[distant vault]

Poly rental golden is just cruel

[pale wolf]

That's a free polychrome

[distant vault]

And $1

[void topaz]

i think ive found trib like twice in gold stake

[pale wolf]

sometimes

[distant vault]

But hear me out

[void topaz]

1 i lost to the plant and 1 i won and the other stakes went the same

[distant vault]

Imagine if it wasn't rental

🌟

[pale wolf]

then it would be bad cloud 9

[void topaz]

me when 4 dollars is better than 1 dollar

[distant vault]

$4 is enough for me

[void topaz]

me when 4 dollars is worse than 6 dollars

[distant vault]

Thats honest work

[spice glen]

would you rather have 1 dollar or 4 dollars

[void topaz]

propably 6 orr

[distant vault]

I am once again asking for some scaling flat mult

[void topaz]

like 6 orr

smh my head

[green shuttle]

lol

[spice glen]

dummy got hacked

[green shuttle]

“Your withdrawal was successfully”

[blazing reef]

Does anybody know how to "fix" the selection on mobile? It's kind off hella annoying and I can't figure it out.

[distant vault]

Mystic summit will have to do

[lyric marsh]

wait. how did this happen? i dont have a showman.

[vocal rose]

its a standard pack

thats why

[hard jasper]

i know going to the menu fixes that

[lyric marsh]

ive never realized doubles can happen in standard packs without showman, thats funny

[green shuttle]

Showman, when equipped, allows duplicates of other Jokers, Planet Cards and Tarot to show up in the shop and Booster Packs.

notice lack of playing cards

[distant vault]

Ah, so playing cards shouldn't appear twice

[green shuttle]

lol

interesting tech in the showman wiki

[solid garden]

literally describes what the said joker does

bug

huh

[green shuttle]

no its saying a third copy can appear later of blueprint

read again

it’s a little confusedly worded lol

[distant vault]

Horrible poly skip but I made it

[solid garden]

obelisk is so great

easily slept on

[distant vault]

I almost died about 4 times

[wintry ice]

find blueprint
find another blueprint
sell old blueprint for new blueprint
sell showman
you can still find new blueprints

[distant vault]

Also no econ the whole run

[green shuttle]

the showman tech is presumably patched in multiplayer right

[solid garden]

ah

got it

sorry

[latent egret]

yes

[pale wolf]

no

[solid garden]

I thought it was describing the mechanic of jokers reappearing in shops

[distant vault]

Time to poly skip again

[solid garden]

I can't read

I am a balatro player

[green shuttle]

im #1 poly skip hater

[tranquil steppe]

Mistaaaaaa bones!!!

[distant vault]

Poly skip is ass

But I like the challenge

[solid garden]

never stop gambling

[distant vault]

Yup

[green shuttle]

lol it’s dopamine too on a good joker

worth it

[distant vault]

Idk how I survived that

[solid garden]

ghost deck simulator

[distant vault]

Mystic summit CARRYING

[solid garden]

I had a poly summit ankh gambit a few days ago

couldn't find chips tho

and died

[distant vault]

Me neither

No scaling mult

No planets

Scaling flat mult

[solid garden]

rip

[distant vault]

Shit was terrible

[idle haven]

What is the worst tag in the game

[pale wolf]

balatrodle in bad

[distant vault]

Bad

[distant vault]

That depends

[solid garden]

I'm not a fan of D6 tag

[wary flicker]

fuck you perishable jokers

[idle haven]

Perishable jokers should cost half of the original jokers

[fickle mesa]

holy shit

[crude sonnet]

I think it’s something like mega standard pack where you’re probably getting something similar from the shop anyway

[idle haven]

Seals of doom and despair

[idle haven]

Mayb

[fickle mesa]

this is what happens when u get ante 1 round 1 immolate into ante 1 round 2 certificate and trading card

[fickle mesa]

id say rare or uncommon skip

[crude sonnet]

2 commons skip probably

[fickle mesa]

probably rare skip since uncommon skip has the fringest of use cases alongside baseball card

[fickle mesa]

pfft

its great

[crude sonnet]

Rare skip is better than some of the others

[fickle mesa]

2 commons is like better than a lot of early game shops

[distant vault]

Poly skip so dog shit

[fickle mesa]

if you can get it ante 2 and you arent making that much use of your rounds (as it tends to be ante 2) a top up tag is a great idea

[distant vault]

Would it be too broken if skip tags that gave jokers made those jokers not be rental nor eternal

Nor perishable

[idle haven]

No

[crude sonnet]

Poly skip, standard skip, orbital skip usually doesn’t land on whatever you’re playing

[distant vault]

Sounds way better to me

[rotund igloo]

Lower stakes its great but on gold its high risk

[crude sonnet]

No i think it would justify skipping an entire shop for them

[idle haven]

Like riff raff im pretty sure can't make eternal, perishable, or rental jokers

[distant vault]

Those skip tags are already dog shit so at least this buff makes it not too bad

[fickle mesa]

rare skip sucks because rares tend to be a: conditional xmults (you arent using the order on your pair build) b: regularly come with tags (top up tags never come with tags) and c: cost you an entire shop and money and scaling

[rotund igloo]

It cant and its great bc of that

[crude sonnet]

You can’t tell me rare skip is worse than standard or orbital skip

[fickle mesa]

it is

[idle haven]

Yeah so the tags should do the same

[fickle mesa]

orbital lets u preview what u get

[frank grove]

orbital skip can be good, if its on a hand you want to play

[fickle mesa]

so if it lands on ur hand (or even if you're early game looking for some direction) you can consider takingnit

[frank grove]

if its not, then its like just there, just like most of the skip tags anyway

[distant vault]

Argil cookin

[fickle mesa]

standard skip is just a pack and its not like insane to maybe skip for it with a double tag

[idle haven]

The real worst tag is double tag because it does nothing until you skip another blind 🔥🔥🔥

[fickle mesa]

its not great but it is a pack it lets you see 10 cards and choose 4 of them with a double tag thats like pretty good

[distant vault]

Tenna cookin

The worst joker is blueprint because it does fucking nothing by itself

🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

[stray swift]

Tips?

[distant vault]

New run

[crude sonnet]

But you can also get double skips from cola and they’re very useful in endless runs

[stray swift]

No💔

[idle haven]

Brainstorm is the worst because it does nothing but worse

[stray swift]

Im just doing random bs im not locked in

[distant vault]

Bro has destroyed game already

[fickle mesa]

okay but endless is like

whos doing that

[distant vault]

True

[idle haven]

Twas a joke

[stray swift]

Im not trying to reach naninf

Do i get photograph

[idle haven]

Invisible joker is the worst because it does nothing

[distant vault]

Hmm yes

[crude sonnet]

Someone else does not think it is a joke though so 🤷‍♂️

[distant vault]

Also move fortune teller behind because he's ugly

[stray swift]

Did

[distant vault]

Lmao

[stray swift]

Should i replace anything with photograph?

Or keep it as it is

[distant vault]

Wait

No don't take photo

Are you playing face cards

Flush five

[stray swift]

Trying to

[distant vault]

Wouldn't you want to look for sock and buskin

And brainstorm

[idle haven]

8 ball is the best joker because it gives tarot cards and tarot cards can be used to make more 8s which makes you make a full deck of 8s which puts idol online and unlocks five flush and if they're hearts you can use bloodstone to get 1.5x mult on top of making the 8s polychrome red seals which means you get a super fun run and then you can get sock and buskin with paredolia to make them retrigger again so 8 ball is the best joker

[stray swift]

I mean, until i get them

[distant vault]

I wouldnt take photo

[stray swift]

Alright

[idle haven]

If you take photo I will personally reset your run

[frank grove]

i had an almost naninf run yesterday where i had nat neg 8 ball, kinda really good for the first like 7 antes

[idle haven]

First 37 antes*

[stray swift]

It might be that deep

[frank grove]

unfortunately he got sold because the invis needed to hit a bp ... sorry boss

[distant vault]

Damn

[idle haven]

It is that deep and I personally love photochad so trust me

[distant vault]

What the fuck

[idle haven]

Worst decision ever

Had it copied the 8 ball you could've gotten to ante 38

[stray swift]

I got the verdant leaf blind😭

[distant vault]

2 8 balls

[stray swift]

What joker do i sell

[distant vault]

16ball

Lucky

[stray swift]

Negatives count right

[distant vault]

Wait no

Yea

Random neg

[idle haven]

Yes

[void topaz]

balatrodle took my 7 tries im so cooked brah

[idle haven]

The worst joker ever is showman because it does nothing except give you jokers you already have 💔💔🔥🔥

[void topaz]

me when the jokers you already have are goated

[stray swift]

I got sock and buskin

In shop

[void topaz]

ok

[idle haven]

Reroll for 8 ball and then sell all for 8 ball

[stray swift]

True

What do i replace snb with

[void topaz]

what is the rest of the point

[void topaz]

what are your jokers

what is your use for snb

[stray swift]

Context is above

[void topaz]

oh brother

[stray swift]

As is the photo of my jokers

[idle haven]

Can seance give you soul or black hole i honestly never use it

Nor do I research it

[void topaz]

whats lucky cat at

[idle haven]

6.7

[stray swift]

2.75

[void topaz]

ok that
