[hard mantle]

i know!!!

but they werent giving me anything useful

[bitter cedar]

@agile owl check my dm bro

[quartz ember]

good, just checking

[cloud sinew]

folga wolga imolga womp

[hard mantle]

wolololo

[floral mural]

theres a compatible boss blind coming up and this is a tough choice

feels like matadors the answer tho

[cloud sinew]

any other scoring option in the shop?

I think it's matador either way but it would be good to get something

a rental scoring joker is definitely worth with matador here

[floral mural]

no but im gonna take matador

[cloud sinew]

yeah

[potent cairn]

are all runs beatable

[lunar zealot]

matador more like

[floral mural]

got odd todd after big blind

[unreal iron]

ez

[unreal iron]

baseball card value 🤤

[cloud sinew]

we don't know for certain, but in the almost 2 years the game has been out there hasn't been a single impossible seed found

[exotic orchid]

I know balatro university has done 50 gold stakes run in a streak. So if probably not. If there is its probably very few.

[queen dock]

Because of rough gem and double eternal hallucination my econ and deck building was in such a good space to be able to roll into a barron and then I was easily able to afford to build towards it

This run likely does not have naninf potential I'm not even trying I have many other gold stickers to attempt

[exotic orchid]

I think he has shown one seed that he lost on and made a video about.

[queen dock]

Two videos actually recently I think

Where doc actually lost

[silk cobalt]

Guys wut deck is hidden behind Orange Stake?

[exotic orchid]

Probably didn't sacrifice a goat to the void that day.

[queen dock]

True

[exotic orchid]

Erratic

[hardy fable]

I heavily misread the question

[silk cobalt]

Wut's its gimmick?

[hardy fable]

random deck

[queen dock]

Random deck on start

[silk cobalt]

Any of the 14 others?

[queen dock]

You can have like 10 2s an 0 kings

[potent cairn]

random cards

[silk cobalt]

Ohh random cards ok

But it's 52 cards ?

[queen dock]

Random suit as well

Almost 180 wins on my main mobile profile

I have a lot of downtime at my work so I get paid to play Balatro

[floral mural]

guess im getting both last common stickers at once ugh

only uncommons left which is painful

time for hell huh

[silk cobalt]

Best deck for Orange/Gold Stake?

My highest stake deck rn is Abandoned

[exotic orchid]

Just for winning probably checkered.

[hardy fable]

whatever deck you can win consistently, for me it's blue

[exotic orchid]

Erratic too if you are willing to re roll a bit.

[winged vault]

UH75JB3W
You're welcome

[exotic orchid]

I once landed a 20 king deck in erratic.

[plain vector]

W pair build set up

[silk cobalt]

I reroll regularly anyway to get good skips in ante 1

[hardy fable]

don't skip

[silk cobalt]

Even if u end up having $30+ in ante 2?

[winged vault]

When you don't want him, he shows up. When you want him, he doesn't show up

[floral mural]

genuinely thinking if thisll be enough flat mult

for like obelisk

i have chips in the form of that blue joker

and im doing a straight stack so ill be fine probably?

[silk cobalt]

Obelisk? prolly be a while to reset the mult so it's fine I guess?

[ancient gyro]

i wanna go higher and preferably not with a s*ash

[floral mural]

im still stacking the straights its just

mult might be an issue later

theres a foil raised fist

[ancient gyro]

that works

[floral mural]

thats better than swash id guess

[hard mantle]

thoughts?

[ancient gyro]

sure

[gloomy swallow]

finally beat jokerless!

[hard mantle]

-# not my photo

[hard mantle]

i cant even beat green stake </3

[winged vault]

Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, you are a pirate!

[gloomy swallow]

I had to help my friend beat WHITE stake

[gloomy swallow]

eg

[hard mantle]

ill get it someday

babababatro cant hold me down

hanging chad is the pick here yea?

[shell dagger]

yeah

[ancient gyro]

sure

[hard mantle]

i only ask coz ive gotten a ton of usage from chaos in the past, but i figure hanging chad has more potential

[shell dagger]

chaos is great but it’s not chad

[ancient gyro]

ballot helps you now and later

[neat ore]

New hand type idea! Straight house!!

[hard mantle]

fair yea

[hybrid cypress]

houndse

[neat ore]

I know im so smart

[winged vault]

ZABFG98V
You're welcome again

[neat ore]

[hybrid cypress]

this might be pretty bad actually

[hard mantle]

aura or wraith.... i have 6 dollars so wraith is a possibility

[neat ore]

Baron on ante 1 is like plus 1 mult

[neat ore]

Ecto

[winged vault]

I'm not going for it

[hybrid cypress]

Baron needs a ton of deck fixing to be good

[winged vault]

I'm trying to do an ante 39 neato run, but this game isn't giving me shit!

[hard mantle]

ecto is a pick i could go for

im bad at spectrals lol

[cloud sinew]

wraith is probably worth at $6, even on the worst case you get $3 back

[hybrid cypress]

WRAITH...

[hard mantle]

SO PEAK

[hybrid cypress]

ABSOLUTE CINEMA

[cloud sinew]

actually so peak

[hard mantle]

now i just need to start getting good cards to make use of hanging chad

[hybrid cypress]

The duo and the tribe are the best poker hand jokers

honourable mention: trio

[cloud sinew]

tribe is one of the worst i think

[hard mantle]

i also need an econ card desperately

im abt to hit ante 3 without one

[hybrid cypress]

it's the one for 4 of a kind right

[cloud sinew]

Tribe is for Flush

[hybrid cypress]

damn

I mixed my jokers up

[cloud sinew]

Family is 4oak

[vague sequoia]

Easiest hand to play too

[hard mantle]

okay chat

[hybrid cypress]

tribe is okayish early

[acoustic kettle]

Why is tribe only 2x anyway

[hard mantle]

thoughts?

[cloud sinew]

duo is the easiest of the Rare poker-hand xmults to trigger

[hybrid cypress]

SPECTRAL PACK...

[hardy fable]

iitsp🗣️

[hard mantle]

you're right

SPECTRALS ALWAYS HELP

oh god

[shell dagger]

probably take constellation but get to interest

ok nvm

[hard mantle]

immolate calls to me like the mask

[hybrid cypress]

IMMOLATE

[acoustic kettle]

Mmmaolaemte

[hard mantle]

IMMOLATE SWEEP

[hybrid cypress]

probably not a devil moment tho

[hybrid cypress]

I'm keeping this

[hard mantle]

who needs econ with immolate

[hybrid cypress]

what's next what's next!

[wind bolt]

Mime and it over

[hard mantle]

the amazing cards that im getting are wasted on me istg

[hybrid cypress]

BANANA

[exotic orchid]

BANAN

[hybrid cypress]

A

[hard mantle]

i need econ or chips plz

oh thanks

[exotic orchid]

Best i can do is a rental jimbo.

[hard mantle]

im only on green stake :3

took hieroglyph coz im not taking chances

[hybrid cypress]

What's next! I missed this one

[willow frost]

honourable mention: the best one

[hybrid cypress]

One time I got Chad and then picked up riff raff for econ and it gave me photo

[hybrid cypress]

lmfao

[hybrid cypress]

Hold on

@hardy fable

How do you have smart time?

Your 10:09 is smart?

is my time dumb

[hardy fable]

fire interpretation

[pale wolf]

@cloud sinew did you ever hear the idea that the uncommon rock jokers are from things thunk found on a beach

[hard mantle]

oh no

this might be joever

[pale wolf]

i cant remember where that came from

[hard mantle]

fuckin green stakes... we cant handle the scaling

[hybrid cypress]

IT'S JOEVER...

[hardy fable]

smart is like data for your phone in the Philippines

[hard mantle]

fml

[hybrid cypress]

Ohhh

[hybrid cypress]

Sigh

[hardy fable]

fucking smart time

[hard mantle]

i actually did okay though

[cloud sinew]

i did not, thank you

[hybrid cypress]

not good enough

[cloud sinew]

i have seen that he found an arrowhead and an onyx agate but i didnt know that was why they were added

[hybrid cypress]

I can't believe they made arrowhead from balatro real

[vital cliff]

Is it possible to get Naninfo without getting the turtle bean glitch?

[cloud sinew]

i was in a rock store and i was gonna buy a bloodstone and an onyx agate but then i realised they wouldnt synergise well

[pale wolf]

i dont think it is, i think people extrapolated

although it does seem onyx agate was added because of being found

[cloud sinew]

thunk said he found an onyx agate the week he drew the sprite for onyx agate

[cloud sinew]

ya

[royal ore]

i was in a rock store and i hated the bloodstone

[hard mantle]

yk what? why not. fuck it

FUCK IT

WE BALL

[pale wolf]

bloodstone is not only originless but worthless

💥

[hard mantle]

CHUZZLE IS FUCKIN BALLIN

[pale wolf]

bruh

[hard mantle]

we dont need jokers

[cloud sinew]

tried to do the misprint tech on a new save file...

damn you collection. havent discovered it yet

[royal ore]

ok

[hard mantle]

if yall cant tell im going fucking insane coz of green stake

[royal ore]

green stake was annoying honestly

[hybrid cypress]

I first tried green stake

Y'all just bad

[royal ore]

i first tried blue im pretty sure

[hybrid cypress]

my bad goat

[hybrid cypress]

now tell me

How is fuck it we ball going

[hard mantle]

oh it went terribly

[hard mantle]

;w;

this is mean...

[hybrid cypress]

Mb

I did go shoot the king's build

It's just the easiest for me

[hard mantle]

im actually quitting balatro for tonight because of that

[hybrid cypress]

I then managed to not get baron

[hybrid cypress]

but instead gor

Got

Scary face

Smiley face

uhh

Dusk

[wind bolt]

Chad

[hybrid cypress]

And photochad

pretty cool build for green stake

[wind bolt]

For plasma deck which build is good?

[cloud sinew]

+chips early, xmult later

[ancient gyro]

2 2oak preferable planet otherwise it varies

mostly just chips, pivoting to xmult is rarely going to exceed chip stacking by the time you find your second xmult

[hybrid cypress]

I'm gonna try to beat green stake before you on blue deck

nvm

I don't have green stake on mobile

[wind bolt]

Help

[hard mantle]

i already quit for today

dont have to rub salt into the wound

[cloud sinew]

sell showman and take blueprint

[wind bolt]

💀

[lusty flax]

Sell the goat?

[wind bolt]

why not the blue joker

[lusty flax]

I literally just made a reel about that fella

[ancient gyro]

if you didn't want advice why not say so

[cloud sinew]

because blue joker actually does something for you

[wind bolt]

Okey thx

[ancient gyro]

what would lilacito do

[floral mural]

this is such a bad set of jokers but i got amber acorn so i win anyways

cola sticker

[cloud sinew]

not take it

[ancient gyro]

oh

someone else can run the path of light

[pulsar forge]

x9 mult

[ancient gyro]

x13.5*

[wind bolt]

The goat

Theeee Goatttt

[south badger]

got to ante 12 with this goofy ahh build

[wind bolt]

THEEEE FU*KKKKKK GOAT

[wind bolt]

.

[cloud sinew]

I don't understand what you're saying

[wind bolt]

.

[cloud sinew]

the message where i said "not take it" was not replying to you. I directly replied to SSC

[wind bolt]

"Sell showman and take blueprint"

[wind bolt]

Lets go my frienddd

[pale wolf]

lilacito

[ancient gyro]

panda horse

[ancient gyro]

yeah

it's the conscious decision you make to make good choices in gs

[cloud sinew]

I skipped a mime, and then just after there was a parking and then a blue seal in a standard pack...

[ancient gyro]

you're no fortune teller

[lavish gazelle]

No waying

[ancient gyro]

im crine

[spark kernel]

Are we deadass 💔 🥀

[floral mural]

avoidable

just skip when it wasnt on hearts

[spark kernel]

This was my one chance to get a win on purple stakei didnt think that this waa gonna happen

[wind bolt]

Try this
Ps: do not sell showman

[spark kernel]

What are the last 2 jokers

[floral mural]

and another sticker hell yeah

probably

[south badger]

am i cookin chat

[willow frost]

FIRE

[inland helm]

oops all sixes be upon ye

[wind bolt]

2 photo and a random joker with negative slot

On plasma dack

[south badger]

ts might be pb gng

gng

this is it

[potent cairn]

how do you get the stake sticker on jokers?

beat run with joker in slot?

or buy joker in run

[steep kayak]

You Need To Beat in Order to get the Stickers

If you cant See them on your Jokers, you probably Need To Turn It on in the settings

[willow frost]

nah dont do it planets are better, even if this is more fun

[south badger]

u sure

[willow frost]

oh i thought you meant space man oops

[gloomy swallow]

another joker gold staked! (Luchador)

progress

140/150 completed

[south badger]

what gave u the idea of spaceman with glass when theres an oops

[gloomy swallow]

you already know

[floral mural]

getting 2 of the last 3 stickers in one game is great

[willow frost]

i forogt you had glass lol

[signal frigate]

Balatro.

[gloomy swallow]

coolio

[gloomy swallow]

I still have 10 jokers remaining

[floral mural]

and my last one is gonna be flower pot

getting one specific uncommon is gonna be rough

[south badger]

my pb was 11 bilion

[floral mural]

tbf today im just doing things fast because i have time

1 left feels nice tho

[south badger]

o7

[floral mural]

even if its an awkward target

[south badger]

nevermind

we lowk ballin (im dead)

[calm furnace]

broke: using planet cards for hand scaling

woke:

using planet cards for campfire scaling

finding supernova saved the run because my ante8 boss was VV and i had 3 hands to play only

bad econ couldnt scale campfire either

[south badger]

now its o7 fr

[blissful fog]

Just realised that splash is good help for scoring and scaling the supernova and square joker

Also close call

[wanton loom]

just got a nat negative off of judgement thats pretty neat

[tranquil gulch]

thought i was cooked. not even a little bit

[fervent wolf]

<@&1133519078540185692>

Ggs

[silk cobalt]

Imagine u encounter Verdant Leaf with all Eternal Jokers 💀

[fervent wolf]

FULL SKIP GOLD STAKE DONE

[last geyser]

W

[thick nova]

What should I sell for marble joker?

[hard mantle]

cavendish

😈

[calm furnace]

couldnt draw my straight flush

[thick nova]

Rly

[hard mantle]

agonizing fate

[heady narwhal]

nothing. marble joker is very bad and you don't need to worry about getting stickers until gold stake

it's hologram synergy but you'd probably get more xmult by saving up money and buying an actual xmult joker

[ancient gyro]

im questioning how they got this poor with rebate in the first place

[fervent wolf]

Finally over lol

[bleak hemlock]

owo

[thick nova]

Hey thank you so much I’m still quite new to the game so trying to learn and figure it out

[harsh juniper]

Shit I'm stuck idk what to sell to get brainstorm

[bleak hemlock]

flesh card

[acoustic kettle]

Flashcard

[atomic trout]

What the bull shit is this?

[heady narwhal]

maybe rebate is getting them enough money that they can spend down to $0 every round and still get interest !!!

[fervent wolf]

White stake too 😭

[atomic trout]

Supersticion Sucks

[atomic trout]

I didn't get Straight 🤣

[heady narwhal]

how did you spend $12 in the first shop and only get superposition

[bleak hemlock]

nah

superstition rocks

[round valley]

Uh

What do I do

[atomic trout]

By spending haha

[bleak hemlock]

sell throwback

[quartz ember]

you sell pare or throwback for bs

[bleak hemlock]

do i do it ? 🤓

its a sure throw but its funny af

[quartz ember]

yes

funi is always worth

[bleak hemlock]

💀

[atomic trout]

High Card... No wonder I can't win Gold Stakes 🤣

[bleak hemlock]

need another grimbo

[atomic trout]

Is that Green Jokers?

[bleak hemlock]

yes

🙂‍↕️

[atomic trout]

No more discarding from here 🤣

[bleak hemlock]

so many gay aces

[quartz ember]

grimbo + stencil run (real)

[bleak hemlock]

need a dusk

[round valley]

Throwback is at like.. almost x6.

?

I think it’s almost at x6

[bleak hemlock]

dont throw it back so hard

[round valley]

I mean… I skipped a LOT cuz I saw a lot of useless tags and my build could suffice

[atomic trout]

Shiny amounts of Ace

[quartz ember]

well bloodstone is on average much more

[slow iris]

Kill Throwback

[round valley]

Yeah makes sense

Alrighty then

Time to move forward

[atomic trout]

The one time Luchador did something

[round valley]

ANOTHER ONE help

[quartz ember]

ofc pare gives 0 score so its by far the worst, but we...

[quartz ember]

well now at least you can kill pare

[round valley]

Also I’ll move the jokers around dw

[round valley]

Pare?

[quartz ember]

pareidolia

[inland helm]

def kill dolia

[round valley]

Oh right

[round valley]

I’m so stupid

[inland helm]

nah i used to think it was spelled paradolia so i got confused when someone called it pare as well lol

[round valley]

What should brainstorm be copying

Hanging Chad if my first card is a face card?

[quartz ember]

good that you hade luchador 😅

[inland helm]

probably just bloodstone

[quartz ember]

always balance triggers and xmult

[atomic trout]

🥚🍙🥚

[inland helm]

what does this mean

[atomic trout]

Pareidolia

[lost vault]

rocket woulda worked just fine

[round valley]

Alright I’ll do some calculations

[quartz ember]

since you have base trigger and sock, its best to have 2 bloodstones

[atomic trout]

Chichot's son

[lost vault]

and also chad

[bleak hemlock]

i lowkey may get past ante 8 with this lmfaoooo

[quartz ember]

you should

(if you have chips)

[bleak hemlock]

KINDA

[calm furnace]

deserved i was greeding trying to play straght flushes with 2-7 while keeping 4 gold face cards in my hand

[atomic trout]

And it's not even the Frágil Challenge

[round valley]

Yeah bloodstone is better

Will yall believe me if I told you I got photograph in the next shop

[potent tree]

make sure you rearrange your jokers!

if you have high base mult copy ramen

ah i see pairs aren't terribly high level

maybe copying a grimbo is better then

[bleak hemlock]

got a driver license 🙂

[potent tree]

ah good show

[bleak hemlock]

its so fcking cold omg

😭

[violet ermine]

guys...

I did it

[ancient gyro]

damn bro 5 levels in one round

k

[potent tree]

good work

now get a second save started

[violet ermine]

hell nah

not doing allat again

[potent tree]

understandable

suffering abandoned deck is a fate worse than death

worse than even black deck

[violet ermine]

disagree

hard disagree

[potent tree]

yep...community defends abandoned with their lives

[violet ermine]

cause I usually played with non-face cards

[ancient gyro]

ok whatever ig

[violet ermine]

because of the face cards debuffed boss

[potent tree]

the plant doesn't matter to me

[violet ermine]

it was hard, yes

but not harder then black

[bleak blaze]

Thats how I unironically Gold Staked Throwback, Ante 1 on Ghost Deck with Ankh in the next shop

[serene forge]

free deckfixing is good

[potent tree]

i guess that's true

[chrome crescent]

yo

what a weird run

[compact bay]

3 hours searching for this seed🥹

Did the photo glitch?

[lament bronze]

free deckfixing and making ride the bus even free-er of a win is good

plus most of the other decks simply arent close

there are entire orders of magnitude between how good the best "Eh basically nothing" and the worst "Okay this actually changes my gameplan for the better"

[lament bronze]

(Not like, "abandoned number 1" but rather any other deck that isnt already over abandoned already)

[ancient gyro]

slop fest

[valid ether]

Abandoned Deck took me a kinda long time to complete initially, I think it requires a different approach than the obvious 'hehe face cards score high' playstyle. Abandoned relies more on jokers and card enhancements and after my first win on it I felt like I understood the game waaayy better

abandoned glaze

[maiden glacier]

Hello.
Is this where we spout out suggestions of we’d like to see in game changes?

[terse vale]

nope

#1155557846805643434

[terse vale]

vampire and hologram cheese

coooool

CALCULATED .

[ancient gyro]

so called getting away with it

back to streak: 3

🫩

I'm turning into @pale wolf

fuck ing dying on my 3rd streak

[keen pilot]

I just picked two of the worst jokers for my build

[ancient gyro]

two?

[neon mural]

Judgement has equal chance to generate any joker not already in your lineup right?

[keen pilot]

No face cards, so Business Card is useless
And Sixth Sense would ruin my straights, also because no face cards

[shell dagger]

no

[cloud sinew]

no.
the way the game determines what Joker spawns is it rolls a Rarity (70% Common, 25% Uncommon, and 5% Rare) and then it rolls the joker within that rarity.
so if it rolled a Common and then it rolled Cavendish, but you already have Cavendish, it would give you a different Common

[shell dagger]

same logic as what jokers appear in the shop

[cloud sinew]

the only exemption to this is with regard to defaults; if there is no joker it can pick within that pool it defaults to Joker

[wintry ice]

people overestimate how common face card builds are

[cloud sinew]

so you can get Joker (Common) from Wraith, Soul, Rare Tag and Uncommon Tag

[terse vale]

we’ll be rolling in it

[ancient gyro]

suffering?

[lost vault]

mreow

[pale wolf]

You have the most fun when you die on the 3rd Street

trust

[ancient gyro]

this shit not fun 💔

[nova mantle]

talking about abandoned like its nebula 😭

[ancient gyro]

i just log off for the day and make it tomorrows problem

[pale wolf]

I wonder if the reason people get confused about this is because they think there are so many common Jokers that their occurrence rate also matches their distribution in the total joker list

like, theres 150 jokers? there must be like 100 commons!

[neon mural]

Ok thanks. I just hit a judgement for a seltzer for my 5th last sticker so I was trying to determine the odds of that happening

[ancient gyro]

b but there's more uncommons so I must get more uncommons

[tacit quail]

gift card+to do list gold stickers +2

[ancient gyro]

good sticker pull

[heavy heron]

ugh..

not this guy again!!

joke

[lost vault]

qwq

[heavy heron]

nice

[lost vault]

hope ur foing well

[pale wolf]

theres also The fact that you can't roll legendary Jokers, and you can't roll enhancement Jokers unless you have an enhancement of that type in your deck, and that you can only generate one banana type at any given time

[heavy heron]

thank you i hope you’re swell

[lost vault]

:3

[pale wolf]

actually the legendary part doesn't matter That's reiterating

[heavy heron]

you can’t have an enhanced joker unless you have an enhancement of that type in your deck?

[nova mantle]

how do i get the damn glass joker that thing never appears

[pale wolf]

yes

[ancient gyro]

yes

[heavy heron]

like you can’t judgment a foil joker unless you have a foil card?

[pale wolf]

what

[nova mantle]

and even if it appears glass cards turn into steel the moment i pick it up

[heavy heron]

wait what

[nova mantle]

ughhh

[wicked finch]

what

[pale wolf]

enhancement jokers, like lucky cat, golden ticket

[ancient gyro]

my favorite enhancement

foil

[pale wolf]

and steel stone glass jokers

[heavy heron]

same thing

[ancient gyro]

🗣️

[heavy heron]

so you can’t pull lucky cat without a lucky card in deck

that’s crazy

[pale wolf]

yea

[heavy heron]

wait that’s crazy

[wicked finch]

not crazy

[ancient gyro]

that's how it's always been

[pale wolf]

🦓

[heavy heron]

i was about to say wtf is an enhancement joker

[nova mantle]

or stone joker if you dont got stone

so on

[heavy heron]

ah yes my hierophanted joker

[foggy yew]

Like why u need lucky cat if u have no lucky cards

[pale wolf]

its those 5 jokers

[heavy heron]

so don’t make stone

got it

[pale wolf]

not any others like midas or marble or anything

[nova mantle]

dissing stone aint no way 😭

[heavy heron]

to make future lucky cards

it’s honestly a weird mechanic come to think of it

[heavy heron]

chips for my chips

it’s not.. bad? but

[pale wolf]

How would you make lucky cards with Lucky cat

[ancient gyro]

it makes sense since why would I want to buy a scaler with no procs atm

[heavy heron]

i’m saying if i find a lucky cat, i’ll start trying to magician some cards

[nova mantle]

goes crazy with pairs

[wicked finch]

stone solos glass any day 🤣

[ancient gyro]

well

[nova mantle]

when you dont got that many planet levels

[pale wolf]

🦓 🦓

[heavy heron]

i mean that’s the whole point of like

speculation

speculative lucky cat yknow

[nova mantle]

ill normally convert useless 7's or 3's if im playing pairs

[neon mural]

Yeah im doing

Common % (0.3)
64 commons - 3 I already had in my build for 61
4 of my last 5 jokers are uncommons, meaning I had 4/61 * 0.3 = 0.01967 or 1.967% chance to hit a non-gold sticker uncommon, but i also have one rare (0.05 * 1/20 = 0.0025) for a total combined probability (if my math is right) of 2.217% chance to hit one of my remaining 5 jokers

[ancient gyro]

wow this chat should've stayed quiet as of 30 minutes ago

[pale wolf]

showman should only appear if theres jokers in the game

[pale wolf]

no

lol

[wicked finch]

never saw anybody pick up a speculative cat

[pale wolf]

its always a flat % for the entire rarity

[heavy heron]

mmm

[wicked finch]

cat is the type of joker that you build around

[neon mural]

yeah but then within the rarity its equal chance to roll any of those rarity jokers right?

[pale wolf]

wait

[wicked finch]

not used to build around others

[ancient gyro]

every cat picked up is speculative since you can't control its scaling speed

[pale wolf]

yea i misunderstood

[heavy heron]

aha!!

[sweet girder]

baron build all along

[nova mantle]

even as a fan i only pick cat if i got a fair amount of lucky cards already

[neon mural]

yeah so I hit a slightly better than 2% chance to hit one of my non stickered

[nova mantle]

i normally find a better xmult by the time cat appears

[heavy heron]

i only pick up cat if i’m feline it

[terse vale]

mannnn if I had a mime

[wary flicker]

Mime kinda better than I thought initally

[sleek valley]

Why am I getting so many runs with no econ options lately?

[wary flicker]

makes blue seals insane

[ancient gyro]

google photos when it reminds me of my furry album

[nova mantle]

i ate all the rebates

[heavy heron]

your who album

[wicked finch]

"best uncommon is better than i thought"

[wary flicker]

best uncommon?

[heavy heron]

best?

[ancient gyro]

"best" 💔

[wicked finch]

yes

[night turret]

Today’s run is a chip build!
||shocking I know||

[heavy heron]

fascinating take

[night turret]

Baseball

[heavy heron]

it’s good— best? ehh

[wicked finch]

overall its the besy

best

[wary flicker]

best is trading card

[night turret]

If you have retriggers

[wary flicker]

deck fixing + money

[heavy heron]

pov i have no gold or blue seals or steel

[nova mantle]

the kitchen is burning

[heavy heron]

mime is my baby

[wicked finch]

doesnt count

[wary flicker]

?

how so

[nova mantle]

aint no one cooking today

[wicked finch]

trading card is undebatable

[wary flicker]

?

[heavy heron]

constellation or hologram is prob up there amongst best un commons

[wary flicker]

so mime isnt best lol

[ancient gyro]

30 minutes ago I was enjoying my day

[wicked finch]

second best

[night turret]

Hanging chad?

[wary flicker]

yh think hologram and constellation are better too

[sleek valley]

Also, how does Marble Vampire wind up getting better scores than Midas Vampire. Midas is reusable and easier to make consistent, but Marble just seems to work better for me. I dont get it

[heavy heron]

common

[night turret]

Oh you said commons at first lol

[nova mantle]

blackboard? even though its not scaling its instant

[heavy heron]

autocorrect…

[night turret]

I get ya, happens to the best of us

[wary flicker]

yh Id take blackboard too cause

[heavy heron]

you see not all of us are pair spammers

[wary flicker]

mime is best when you have a setup

or one of the best

[nova mantle]

eh, honestly i prefer the chat not being dead

[pulsar forge]

Constellation wins over Hologram in the long run just because deck bloat

[ancient gyro]

i go for either that or midas depending on whatever deck I'm playing early

[heavy heron]

i possibly disagree

[lunar zealot]

THEY DO DIFFERENT THINGS

[nova mantle]

meanie 💔

[fickle mesa]

deck bloat just

[wicked finch]

talking about ante 8 runs

[heavy heron]

it’s true!

[fickle mesa]

jsnt that bug of a problem

[lunar zealot]

RAAAAAAJHHHHHHHH

[ancient gyro]

but now i have the urge to correct everyone

[lunar zealot]

HOLOGRAM AND CONSTELL ARE TWO DIFFERENT JOKERRRRRSSSSSSSS

[nova mantle]

you should be deleting light suits anyway

[heavy heron]

can’t you like not read or smth

[wicked finch]

my second hot take

[lunar zealot]

WITH TWO DIFFERENT NICHEEEEEEESSSSSSS

[fickle mesa]

theyre very comparable

[wary flicker]

why are we screaming

[heavy heron]

niche is a word

[wary flicker]

xd

[terse vale]

true but I think it gives constellation the edge in general and hologram is a bit more rng

[ancient gyro]

kami kami look at this slop

[fickle mesa]

they both are powerful xmult scalers that round out a build

[wicked finch]

round 1 riff raff> ante 1 investment tag

[heavy heron]

i wouldn’t say picking up planets throughout my run is a niche

[atomic trout]

Easy

[nova mantle]

can you not yell pls my ears hurt

[lunar zealot]

no bbc

4/10

[ancient gyro]

depends

[ancient gyro]

bbc was last run

[heavy heron]

tell me this wasn’t the most boring run of your life

hologram and constellation trivializes this game it’s crazy

[ancient gyro]

well it was interesting to hold marble with nothing going for it in the first few antes

[lunar zealot]

do you play high card baron/mime photochad or flush aj/bloodstone

[heavy heron]

i can see that

[nova mantle]

idk, juggling dagger so it aint kill your jokers is kinda fun

[lunar zealot]

ooh or maybe flush five hack

[night turret]

Okay this seed really wants me to scale chips
Might get rid of speedrunner ngl for now

[ancient gyro]

i almost died if you looked closely

[wicked finch]

it's a chips joker damn it

chips joker

[night turret]

It’s not helping the best

[heavy heron]

bloodstone can go to hell, photochad depends if in desperate

[lunar zealot]

if you think about it every run in the game is boring derivative slop

[ancient gyro]

it made my rebate hit less

[lunar zealot]

and nobody should play balatro because it's not fun

[ancient gyro]

which also almost killed me

[lunar zealot]

and we should all just go back to darkest dungeon or sts

[lost vault]

bloodstone more like whiffstone

[wicked finch]

sell rebate to make the game harder

easy

[heavy heron]

and yes, i do go baron but maybe not mime

[ancient gyro]

wanna play my run

[nova mantle]

meet potential joker

[lost vault]

mrrrow

[lunar zealot]

fully missing my point lmfao

[heavy heron]

no i’m making a joke

dw

[nova mantle]

0 hits
0 mult
7 whiffed runs

[wicked finch]

dont

[ancient gyro]

idk if anybody here has an ounce of intelligence that's capable of playing a20 sts

[atomic trout]

SHOWMANSHIP

[lunar zealot]

i got the game like a weeka go

[ancient gyro]

dont what

[neon mural]

Me, I A20d Defect

[heavy heron]

i dont know i just think hologram being an auto win makes the game a bit stale

[ancient gyro]

dont car 🚗

[lunar zealot]

i can't even beat ascension 0 man

[heavy heron]

but yea

[wicked finch]

play

[atomic trout]

Now I have a gay burglar

[wicked finch]

stop playing

[lunar zealot]

it really isn't auto win

[heavy heron]

ok

[lunar zealot]

now YORICK on the other hand

Good lord i got a fuckin bone to pick with yorick

[nova elk]

I’m f’d up

[wicked finch]

it IS an auto win

[ancient gyro]

im not playing im serious :3

[nova mantle]

ofc, holo instantly provides chips and mult

[cloud sinew]

if youre being hyperbolic, sure

[lost vault]

bludstone

[heavy heron]

i read somewhere for a tutorial for new players on how to beat the game , the tutorial just said “find the card called hologram and click buy”

[neon mural]

thats insane lmao

[heavy heron]

somehow i think theyre right

[neon mural]

Holo is not an insta win

[ancient gyro]

I'll put a nitro bounty on top of it if you play the run out

[lunar zealot]

*assuming you have the econ necessary to feed it as well as having an additional source of scoring whether it be chips +mult or another xmult joker

[wicked finch]

basically one

[lost vault]

holo kinda good

[lunar zealot]

and assuming you have a way to deal with boss blinds

[atomic trout]

Aaaugh

[lost vault]

u know whats better

[heavy heron]

me?

[nova mantle]

a certain joker being an instant solution for one of those 3 (chips, mult, xmult) doesnt equal to an instant win

[lost vault]

ancient my GOAT YEAAAHHH

[neon mural]

No ones saying Holo is bad its just not an autowin

[heavy heron]

oh

[lost vault]

maybe

[heavy heron]

woahhh

[lunar zealot]

and assuming the deck bloat won't significantly harm your draw

[lost vault]

.^. sorry

[neon mural]

just build Pairs easy

[heavy heron]

calm down there, just because last night got a lil crazy..

[ancient gyro]

ooo I have an aj seed for a challenge attempt

[lunar zealot]

and assuming that you can get the necessary things to facilitate a hologram run in the first place

[lost vault]

i remember

[heavy heron]

bet it was unforgettable

[lunar zealot]

and how will you draw a gold card or a blue seal

[nova elk]

Tips for winning any deck?

[cloud sinew]

you should be running pairs most of the time, not all of the time

[neon mural]

just get Certificate duh

[lost vault]

control yourself

[lunar zealot]

just because it's an easy hand doesn't mean you can always get value

[wicked finch]

you only need max interest

[lunar zealot]

how will you find it if you don't have money to

[neon mural]

get more money

[lunar zealot]

what if i have a rental necessary to survive

[pulsar forge]

same

[wicked finch]

oh trust me its the best hand for a reason

[lunar zealot]

what if i got fucked by tooth last ante

[neon mural]

Hold R key

[lunar zealot]

what if i can't play pairs due to supernova

[lost vault]

get more money

[cloud sinew]

which counts as a loss for winstreaks

[lost vault]

as it should

[nova mantle]

until i dont got no chips and pair crashes and dies

[neon mural]

so does actually losing the run lmao

[lunar zealot]

what if i have rentals which impact my econ too much

[wicked finch]

why do you have supernova and not playing pairs

[wicked finch]

pair has chips

[lost vault]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[cloud sinew]

holding R doesn't count as a loss for anything else besides winstreaks, that's my point.

[nova mantle]

if i get the planet levels yeah

[wicked finch]

you cant still buy it

[lunar zealot]

i don't see why that correlates

[ancient gyro]

it was kinda fun

[wicked finch]

you get blue seals by buying packs

[nova mantle]

if i got the money yeah

[cloud sinew]

doesn't count for Mr. Bones, doesn't count for your tracked # of losses (which isn't displayed, but is still tracked in your save file)

[lunar zealot]

which cost money

[neon mural]

oh funny, I count it as a loss in my head even if im just resetting after bad shop 1 (which I dont do all that often but if im on a particularly bad streak I might)

[shell dagger]

Señora huesos

[atomic trout]

I'm going to fail soon

[wicked finch]

then what do you play when you get supernova

[ancient gyro]

why talk about balatro if you don't have balatro 🤓

[lunar zealot]

imagine bones got disabled

[ancient gyro]

senora 🗣️

[wicked finch]

not a lot

[lost vault]

balatro uwu

[lunar zealot]

supernova is a retroactive mult scaler

[lunar zealot]

which adds up

[cloud sinew]

you get a blue seal every 20 cards seen in standards, on average.

[shell dagger]

then bus wouldn’t have tbf

and I would’ve won

[lunar zealot]

True...

[nova mantle]

guess they bought the deluxe edition which gives 25 dollars after every round

[lunar zealot]

hell is your third joker

[lost vault]

what are we even arguing about

[lunar zealot]

anyway hologram is not an auto win

now YORICK

[lost vault]

spread love not war

[lunar zealot]

i got a fucking bone to pick with yorick gang

[lost vault]

true

[wicked finch]

holy glaze

[ancient gyro]

hbn

[neon mural]

4 more jokers for C++

[cloud sinew]

someone was being hyperbolic and said hologram was an auto-win

[wintry ice]

wtf

[lunar zealot]

glaze when i legitimately dont like the joker

[nova mantle]

i remember it started by someone saying mime was the best uncommon 😭

[cloud sinew]

it does! :3

[lunar zealot]

Are you slow

[nova mantle]

its justified tho

[lost vault]

hologram is an autowin mfs when they dont get standard packs

[atomic trout]

I blue it

[lunar zealot]

I mean it does

[wicked finch]

you have other ways to add cards btw

[lost vault]

i mean
hes pretty damn good

[wintry ice]

reddit making a reasonable take

[lost vault]

yes but those are less likely .^.

[nova mantle]

not the goat of uncommons tho

[lunar zealot]

anyway let's talk about yorick rn

[wintry ice]

the thread is still stupid but still

[lunar zealot]

Yorick is a good joker and i hate it

[nova mantle]

theres at least 3 that sweep mime

[wicked finch]

not that unlikely

[lost vault]

the goat of uncommons is trading card ffa

[lunar zealot]

top 3 jokers in the entire game and i hate it

[lost vault]

ffs

[nova mantle]

theyre evolving

[wintry ice]

the best uncommon is any of blackboard, constellation or hologram

[lunar zealot]

the goat of uncommons is ANY uncommon because they give X1.5 MULT BABY

[nova mantle]

wonder when theyll start using red card

[tacit quail]

cavendish , egg, gold stickered ✅ +2

[lost vault]

more unlikely than standard packs

[lost vault]

true

[wicked finch]

constellation aint there

[ancient gyro]

i go blackboard in current meta

[lost vault]

bbc <3

[shell dagger]

if we’re talking about hologram worst case scenario then cert/dna/marble shouldn’t even be mentioned

[wicked finch]

still easy to get

[wintry ice]

blue seals are already sought after and planet packs are usually taken

[lunar zealot]

what are you even arguing at this point

[nova mantle]

trading card so good i grab it even if its rental

[lunar zealot]

i feel like you're talking but you aren't saying anything

[neon mural]

ShOuLd I sKiP fOr ReD cArD vAlUe?

[lost vault]

we cant just pull jokers outta our ass buddy

[wicked finch]

skip

[neon mural]

https://i.imgur.com/kX2GRGY.png

🙂

[ancient gyro]

@wicked finch don't even got the game lmao

[lost vault]

it is infact a good rental

[cloud sinew]

4 spectrals and 3 jokers, not that likely.

[lost vault]

pays off its own cost

[wicked finch]

js saying things

[lost vault]

decfixing

goated

[wintry ice]

gets rewarded for not skipping the pack
somehow complains about it

[lost vault]

i love trading card

[ancient gyro]

im just the messenger

👅

[lunar zealot]

now canio that's a legendary

[cloud sinew]

opinion revoked

[latent egret]

[cloud sinew]

you arent allowed one

[lunar zealot]

incredibly strong but it at least has fucking agency

[neon mural]

I could use a trading card rn for this canio

[wanton loom]

canio my beloved

[lunar zealot]

yorick is just discard and win

[nova mantle]

watched rofflelite play and thought they was ready 😭

[wicked finch]

4 spectrals isnt likely?

[lost vault]

play the game
itz fun .^^.

[lunar zealot]

I could go on about how yorick is legitimately poorly designed

[wintry ice]

canio is the most fun legendary for me

[nova mantle]

youtube shorts level of knowledge

[wicked finch]

people js be saying things

[lost vault]

u dont gotta i believe i

u

:p

[lunar zealot]

i'll start with the numbers

x1 is too strong numerically

i get it's a legendary

[wintry ice]

spectral packs have a 10% chance to appear in any pack slot in a shop

[lunar zealot]

so i'll at least let that slide

[lost vault]

should be .99x instead am i right fellas

[lunar zealot]

But also the condition is so fucking boring

it's fully unengaging

[wintry ice]

i think it's be fine at 0.75x after the blue stake rework

[lunar zealot]

and does not at all mesh with every other xmult joker

[lost vault]

me when the condition is playing the game

[wintry ice]

given that larger hands will become more viable

[lunar zealot]

which at least has a condition to speak of

Even if some can get sticky with it

[wanton loom]

meanwhile hit the road:

[nova mantle]

.01 honestly

[lunar zealot]

cough cough blackboard

[cloud sinew]

there are 18 spectrals, so not really.
also spectral packs are the rarest pack, and they have the least cards out of any pack of the same rarity (tied with Buffoon Packs)

[ancient gyro]

ikr crazy how they're talking about the game while having the game

[nova mantle]

too busted in its current state

[lunar zealot]

Yorick isn't fun

[lost vault]

revert yorick frfr :3

[lunar zealot]

and while fun is subjective

i feel like yorick is the bad kind of unfun

[shell dagger]

big hands worse with yorick, more risky to do full discards

[lunar zealot]

the one that takes away from overall content of a game

[lost vault]

5x after 23 discards my behated this mf used to suck

[lost vault]

this is teue

[stark karma]

ya'll can I get some feedback on some joker Ideas I have :P

[lunar zealot]

Also also something else is how this makes soul card worse

[cloud sinew]

old Yorick used to be so bad... time to keep a joker around for 4 antes before it ever does something

[lunar zealot]

because with yorick's current state

[ancient gyro]

revert yorick and implement my blue stake idea boom problem solved 👅

[lunar zealot]

soul is a 1/5 chance you instantly win

[lost vault]

<3

[wintry ice]

xmult jokers are supposed to warp how you make decisions for the rest of the run

[lunar zealot]

and a 4/5 chance you don't

and that also feels bad!!!

from a game design standpoint!!!!

[cloud sinew]

you're being hyperbolic

[wicked finch]

4/5 chance you win

[wintry ice]

yorick kinda doesn't do that

[wicked finch]

1/5 chance you get trib

[lost vault]

canio kimda wins too

[lost vault]

and lose instantly

[cloud sinew]

this is the realest take you've ever had.

[lost vault]

trib suhs

[wary flicker]

dont disrespect chicot

[lunar zealot]

all of the other legends at least allow for engagement in a given run all im sayin

[lost vault]

oh i didnt see the earlier message

[wintry ice]

canio needs you to get the resources to guarrantee that you find a hanged man

[nova mantle]

even chicot is pretty good

[lunar zealot]

Trib is trib but you get some flavor from the strongest on scored xmult in the game

[wintry ice]

which is more gameplay interaction than what yorick has

[nova mantle]

dont see the reasoning honestly

[lost vault]

too used to newbies glazing trib but i forgot this guy isnt even technically a mewbie

[lunar zealot]

chicot gives you freedom for more risky strategies

[lost vault]

yah

[wintry ice]

trib is the worst of them

[lunar zealot]

perkeo is great and very versatile for econ and other forms of util

[wintry ice]

but i still go for it when possible because taking a break from pairs is fun

[lunar zealot]

and canio while similarly as strong as yorick at least has stuff going for it to make it engaging

[cloud sinew]

Yorick does have a lot of thought into using it though.
discarding more cards can be riskier, so using Yorick optimally requires you to think about if discarding more is worth the additional risk, if there is risk.

[lunar zealot]

it's at least interactive

[neon mural]

I CANT FIND ANY HUNG MEN FOR THIS CANIO

[quartz ember]

takes away game mechanic though, some would say thats not great game design

[lost vault]

shrimply do pairs :3

[nova mantle]

hung is different than hanged yk

[shell dagger]

making every boss the serpent or water will balance yorick, trust

[lunar zealot]

both of yall raise good points and i concede that

[nova mantle]

but yeah, hanged men instantly stop appearing when canio makes it in the lineup

[wintry ice]

the fact that most runs end up converging to pairs ends up lowering the risk by a good amount

[lost vault]

i think we all need more hung man in our lives

am i right chat

[lunar zealot]

nevertheless yorick i feel doesn't do enough to make discards interactive enough with weighing opportunity cost

[ancient gyro]

yorick on the lower half of the performance spectrum still has a risk factor in that boss blinds and some specific card searching needs to be in your favor before you benefit from yoricks rewards

[lunar zealot]

as well, one could argue that the benefits of chicot to a build outweigh its 'bad' game design in a vacuum of removing a particular element of a game

[neon mural]

at the final hour he arrives

[lunar zealot]

being that it allows for a greater amount of flexibility in the build you can make

[lost vault]

yorick x the hook enemies to lovers yaoi

[nova mantle]

and you got fc in hand too

[neon mural]

I needed it too, I barely cleared the last big blind

and hikers been scaling so I might have a shot now

[lunar zealot]

Anyway it's 1:30 am i should probably get some fucking sleep

[nova mantle]

i once lost a run due to finally finding a hanged man but not having any fc in that certain arcana appear

[wintry ice]

erm

it's 2:30pm

[lunar zealot]

I might be tired and biased against yorick so take everything i said with a grain of salt

I still stand by what i said though

[wintry ice]

i slept at 5 today

[lunar zealot]

at least what i remember saying

[neon mural]

where the hell are you that its 2:30? Greenland?

[stark karma]

I made one in modding general but I'll make one there too thx!

[lunar zealot]

Ok goodnight chat

[ancient gyro]

wuh

gn streaks

[wintry ice]

girl sleeps with shoes on

[nova mantle]

i personally see the arm and space joker (when it does proc) as a brawl between them

space be sleeping the whole game until its challenged

[ancient gyro]

mean whale 🐋

[neon mural]

why is it so long

[ancient gyro]

z fold

[wintry ice]

you have a foldable?

[ancient gyro]

i had one for years 💔

thought you ppl knew about this

[lost vault]

ive seen like am artistic interpretation of this
space joker facing down the arm while holding 2 small oops all sixes

ive lost it unfortunately

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[lost vault]

:o

whuh

[heavy heron]

nothing

[lost vault]

ghost ping?

ph

[neon mural]

yeah I think its getting auto censored

[heavy heron]

[heavy heron]

very odd

anyways balatro
