[heavy heron]

how the actual hell am i alive still

i lost like $19 to a wraith and used a ouija

bro help me

[distant thunder]

worth to use the second ecto? 6 steel cards in my whole deck

ante 15 i am just doing shits and giggles now

[deft sandal]

hold the ecto until you find something for it

[heavy heron]

BRO THE HOOK

IT ALNOST KILLED ME

FIST DOESNT WORK W THE HOOK

w 7 hand size at least

but lucky cards..

my baby..

[distant thunder]

now the question is

do i take bloodstone + ecto

very tempted

nvm i forgot i have one queen that works with it

[lunar zealot]

I think if you have to ask yourself 'do i take bloodstone' the answer is no

[heavy heron]

….well… i shouldn’t have made it this far anyway..

[distant thunder]

i took bean

:3

[lunar zealot]

o7

[somber nebula]

i cooked this sticker run

[lunar zealot]

nice obelisk

[somber nebula]

i dont want to see it again

[cloud sinew]

:P

[bitter perch]

Cooking

[distant thunder]

im cooked as fuck 🙏

[tiny canyon]

Its calling me...

[distant thunder]

embrace it !

[tiny canyon]

Im tempted even though I have a solid run 😭

Since im on ante 7 I KNOW that I won't get a bad boss blind

[distant thunder]

it can be even more solid

[calm furnace]

wtf why cant i grim

[tiny canyon]

and I do have some high card levels...

[tiny canyon]

You'd for a moment be at 0 cards, which is a losing condition

so it doesnt let you

[calm furnace]

ohh makes sense

thanks

didnt know its a losing condition inside a pack

[tiny canyon]

Anyway that your cards get pulled up IG.

[tiny canyon]

Funnily enough, copying constelation is still the play.

[latent egret]

how high is it ?

[distant thunder]

rip to my best fricking run yet

[heavy heron]

well it better be better than 64x your base mult

[latent egret]

x8*

[heavy heron]

AKA your constellation between be 8x or better

[tiny canyon]

4.6

Either way, I'm actually gonna copy Chad for the lucky card value

[heavy heron]

oh then copying photo is better

21x compared to 64x

[tiny canyon]

Wouldnt that be an extra 4x only?

[latent egret]

copying chad is almost the same

[tiny canyon]

Wait no its 6.

[latent egret]

as copying const

[tiny canyon]

Im gonna copy chad anyway because lucky card value

[heavy heron]

2 x 2 (again!) 2 x 2 (again!) 2 x 2 = 64x

vs

[tiny canyon]

I clear the blinds again

[distant thunder]

[heavy heron]

4.6 x 4.6 =21.16

[tiny canyon]

oh its 8x. Not 4x.

Got it.

wait no im still getting this wrong

gurhszgoiursah

[atomic trout]

This Deck sucks

[tiny canyon]

It doesnt matter

I clear copying Chad

[heavy heron]

bet

[tiny canyon]

Me when

not "nope!"

Its like one big (small) happy family

[heavy heron]

photochad by itself is 2 x 2 x 2 (8) but with a photocopy (ha) it becomes 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

which is 64x

so instead of turning your constellation from 4.6x to a 21x

you turn your photo

from an 8x to a 64x

by copying photo instead of constellation

[tiny canyon]

This a really confusing way to put it because it'll proc with or without being copied.

In reality the decision is either getting an extra 8x or 4.6x.

[calm furnace]

if planet levels are high enough yeha

[tiny canyon]

Calling it 64x is just a bit weird thats all

[heavy heron]

well okay let me put it this way

[tiny canyon]

They're solid enough

[calm furnace]

photochad is the base mult x8

[heavy heron]

you get another 4.6x or another 8x

which is higher

[tiny canyon]

I know what you mean

[tiny canyon]

I literally just said that

[calm furnace]

what level

[heavy heron]

then yea you get it

[calm furnace]

4.6 x2 might be better

[atomic trout]

Soiled it

[tiny canyon]

I'm just saying you've been putting it high enough

[latent egret]

no +mult jokers, and i doubt he is using mult/holo cards

[heavy heron]

i don’t think i’m confusing it because

that’s how the game

does it

like it literally does 2 x 2

chad goes off

2 x 2

chad goes off

2 x 2

[calm furnace]

yeah most cases its gonna be better to copy photo

wait copied chad is not x8 its more

[heavy heron]

right if there was + mult

it might change what you copy

[tiny canyon]

Okay, admittedly its only 7 HC, but with the extra mult from photochad its better than my level 9 straights, which I cant even play consistently anymore since I sold shortcut

[heavy heron]

sometimes constellation would be better

HC?

[latent egret]

high card

[tiny canyon]

high card

[heavy heron]

hanging chad

oh

LOL

[tiny canyon]

Im planet maxing anyway I should get more plutos soon

[heavy heron]

well if you really don’t know, you can always try copying different things and seeing what scores better

[latent egret]

technically since base level is decently low it might be the best to copy chad in terms of expected value

[heavy heron]

but because x mult is commutative (and there’s no flat mult)

copying photo is better

[calm furnace]

wait double photo is 2 to the power of what

[heavy heron]

but you get it

[tiny canyon]

The best scoring is copying photograph. Objectively.

[heavy heron]

2 ^ 6

[latent egret]

2^2^3

[tiny canyon]

but it doesnt even matter because im copying chad for the lucky card value.

[latent egret]

so 64

[calm furnace]

and copied chad is 2 ^ 4?

[heavy heron]

yes

[latent egret]

copying chad is 2^5

so x32

[heavy heron]

2 ^ 5

x2 (blueprint and chad: again, again, again, again)

[calm furnace]

ah yeah unless mult as at 1 its better to copy chad not const

[heavy heron]

2 ^ 5

[tiny canyon]

However, if I use a glass card, I'm pretty sure copying chad is the best option

[latent egret]

yes

[calm furnace]

yeah i forget how absurd photo gets when copied

[tiny canyon]

which is what im about to do bc im curious

[latent egret]

glass = photo

red seal = 1/2 chad

[tiny canyon]

Yeah im good

[calm furnace]

why is chad blue

[tiny canyon]

A mod. Its blueprint

[calm furnace]

ohhh

[tiny canyon]

Yeah it changes blueprint/brainstorm to look like the card its copying

[calm furnace]

also based for the optimal order

having photo in center

[tiny canyon]

Symmetry is impossible because blueprint will take on the appearance of another card no matter what

sorry

[calm furnace]

nah summetry is overrated whats important is photo being in the middle

[tiny canyon]

happy?

Also, I've been copying Chad for the past 5 rounds and I havent gotten a single money proc from lucky cards dispite playing 2 a round

thats 50 total triggers with no cash

c'mon game...

[calm furnace]

are you at lteast getting mult?

[tiny canyon]

Yeah

But I dont need it

I easy clear everything

Honestly, I'm having less fun than I was earlier this run when doing straights

This is why I usually avoid photochad

[calm furnace]

what hand are you playing

[tiny canyon]

but it was so perfectly presented, side by side in shop

[calm furnace]

i love photochad with straights

[tiny canyon]

I had to

[cloud sinew]

~7.7% of that happening

[tiny canyon]

I can't play straights anymore because I sold shortcut

[calm furnace]

ah shii

[tiny canyon]

And some of my scoring comes from card sharp so, if I cant play them reliably I dont get as much scoring

[calm furnace]

one of the most fun runs i ever had with straight flush + photochad

[tiny canyon]

Thus: I do normie elitist highcard/pair maxing.

[calm furnace]

wait people play pair with photochad?

[tiny canyon]

Yeah

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[calm furnace]

wth

[ancient gyro]

this is simple logic

[calm furnace]

ive been playing the game wrong

[olive raptor]

Any tips for post-🟪 black deck?

[tiny canyon]

Mainly because of Pair spam in high stakes

[calm furnace]

i only photochad on flushes or straights

[tiny canyon]

So its already leveled anyway

[calm furnace]

if im doing pair build i never photo

[tiny canyon]

Stupidly consistent.

[ancient gyro]

gl doing that consistently on gs

[calm furnace]

flush photochad won me shitload of gold stake

[ancient gyro]

there's literally no harm, pairs with blue seal lobotomy is just a ballot spam alternative

and pairs do that with less risk

[ancient gyro]

mister 8 cards in the arcana pack

[calm furnace]

but chad with straights and flushes starts scoring a lot early

because it starts at +4

[tiny canyon]

I just played 5 more hands. Still no money. Thats 15 more triggers

[calm furnace]

not a single photochad run here was on anything but flush or straight. i also had a few venus and mars photochads

[ancient gyro]

game doesn't care where it starts, it cares about planet levels where blue seals and planet gen makes it trivial

[tiny canyon]

Only after playing a 6th card did I get a money proc.

...on the ante 8 boss

[olive raptor]

Ouch

[calm furnace]

i just never think about pairs when i see photochad. when im doing pairs im looking for +mult and a possible chip joker

[ancient gyro]

the rude awakening arrives on the 29th of february

[cloud sinew]

that shows more about how you play imo, not necessarily what is optimal

[tiny canyon]

Well, gg

[ancient gyro]

pretty much

[calm furnace]

and usually i only photo early so i committ myself to something with higher base mult

[tiny canyon]

Really fun run turned into Photochad slop.

Really, I loath it.

Photochad...

[calm furnace]

winning is fun tho

[tiny canyon]

I was gonna win anyway

[cloud sinew]

im fine with photochad, i just dont like the lobotomy meta

[tiny canyon]

Pivot or no pivot

[calm furnace]

pair slop is pair slop no matter what jokers you have

[tiny canyon]

truee.

[calm furnace]

chad itself is chad

love the shit of that joker

[tiny canyon]

Photograph is innocent. Chad is stupidly busted

Aughh don't make me rant about it again

[calm furnace]

this on PC account (gs only)

[tiny canyon]

Checks out.

[calm furnace]

almost 6k rounds with chad

[tiny canyon]

I once searched for images on this discord with this page. Over half had Chad on their top 10.

Its a

COMMON joker
and is BETTER than EVERY OTHER RETRIGGER JOKER

[calm furnace]

its like top 5 if not top 3 common joker

[tiny canyon]

HELLO??

[calm furnace]

like chad + odd todd can carry the chips needed in a pair build

chad turns gold seals from decent to godlike

unless its rental im almost always picking chad on almost any build

[thick nova]

Doing a face card run. Should I replace something for smiley face

[calm furnace]

it can be econ, scoring, value generator you name it chad does it

[tiny canyon]

What is your base mult?

[tiny canyon]

Exactly. And if you are playing 3 card or less of whatever card you want to retrigger, it is objectively better than all other alternatives

[thick nova]

16

[latent egret]

then dont

[calm furnace]

unless you do a lot of deck fixing it triggers on average almost as much as sock and hack

[tiny canyon]

With photograph, the effectiveness of smily face is effectively 12.5+ mult at best. I'd say no unless you really need it

[calm furnace]

its great early on if you dont have levels

[tiny canyon]

Except that Sock and Hack both have strict requirements on how to play them.

Low cards have few synergies.
Face cards get debuffed.

Hanging chad? It doesn't care. It can retrigger ANYTHING.

[wanton oracle]

Yall should try EGI2TY9B ghost deck
Definitely not a hard seed but its really fun

[calm furnace]

heck chad makes 8ball not suck

[wanton oracle]

Nvm its 6 instead of G

Im blind

[calm furnace]

if you legetimize 8ball you are insanely strong

[tiny canyon]

...edit the message then?

[calm furnace]

i hope chad doesnt get nerfed

[tiny canyon]

Please it needs to be nerfed

It used to be balanced, y'know. Only triggering the card once.

[calm furnace]

its a SP game, having strong options makes the game more fun

[latent egret]

its possible that it goes to retrigers the first and second card once

[calm furnace]

i dont mind it becoming uncommon

[latent egret]

still balanced but wayy worse ofc

[calm furnace]

but dont change how it works

[ancient gyro]

address me
#🕹・game-discussion message

[tiny canyon]

Multiplayer mod is by no means the baseline for how good cards are... but...
They had to nerf chad.
TWICE.

[ancient gyro]

multiplayer chad would be a fine vanilla change

[latent egret]

how you 8ball but no 8 ?

[calm furnace]

#🕹・game-discussion message

had this today

[latent egret]

or low 8s

[thick nova]

Thanks for the help. I hate being a newbie 😂

[calm furnace]

but still i had waaay more lucky card triggers than 8ball triggers

wait why they nerf chad in MP, isnt MP played on the same seed?

how can something be broken if both players get access to it

[tiny canyon]

Because it removes all other strategies and makes the game uninteresting.

People will just pchadmax every time if its always the best option

[calm furnace]

but without chad the strategy doesnt change you still gonna play pairs

i assume MP is similar to GS

where pairs rule

[ancient gyro]

you're asking the same person who did this slop

[tiny canyon]

Not necessarily

[ancient gyro]

not even close

[tiny canyon]

Pair means playing less scoring cards. Stuff like glass is very important in MP

[calm furnace]

whats different

[ancient gyro]

everything

[calm furnace]

is there fundemental mechanic changes in the game or something?

i thought MP was 2 people playing the same seed at the same time

[ancient gyro]

suggest you look more into it yourself

[patent bridge]

just watch a Bean video

youll understand

[tiny canyon]

High stakes require consistency.

Multiplayer requires you to have just one very good hand every boos blind.

[calm furnace]

i watched doc vs roffle and didnt find mp interesting

[ancient gyro]

you watch two ppl who aren't known to play mp, play mp

what do you expect

[patent bridge]

yep

[calm furnace]

i didnt even know mp is a thing until doc mentioned it in his videos

but like i play balatro to escape competitive games so its not for me 😭

[serene forge]

most skilled photochad user be like

[calm furnace]

thats insane wtf

[ancient gyro]

ironic statement from a light mode user

[patent bridge]

It's so funny that I've gone about 50 runs without using Photochad Combo

[calm furnace]

how can someone not now how to use BB?

[ancient gyro]

also why are you always on reddit

[serene forge]

I don't give a fuck

[serene forge]

maso chism

[calm furnace]

light mode is good wtf

light mode during the day

dark mode during the night

[tiny canyon]

Ok i will take my leave

[calm furnace]

if you respect your eyes

[patent bridge]

light mode always

i use discord light mode

[calm furnace]

discord only thing i use in dark mode because the web version of discord doesnt follow the system auto dark/light mode

[ancient gyro]

i like to keep my battery life

[calm furnace]

it doesnt really affect battery

[ancient gyro]

and not have weird oled burn imprints

[patent bridge]

Impressed that he didn't say he's never used green joker

[serene forge]

play blackboard on checkered deck because instead of starting with 26 red cards you start with 26 red cards

[calm furnace]

checkered confirmed best deck for blackboard!

[young pecan]

Yay

[calm furnace]

also it depends on the user settings

[patent bridge]

oh thats so funny

[calm furnace]

if you use "high contrast"

blackboard wont trigger on clubs

because they are blue

gotta turn that off when you use blackboard

[thorny axle]

who is ping

[serene forge]

so tre

true

[thorny axle]

blue is a cold colour, close enough

[calm furnace]

whiteboard when?

[sand robin]

What thr best way to use Casio

[acoustic kettle]

Destroy faces

[foggy yew]

Pareidolia and hang/immolate em

[sand robin]

Ok

What do I use for scoring tho?

[acoustic kettle]

Anything

[foggy yew]

Pairs ?

[acoustic kettle]

It is a normal xmult

[foggy yew]

Or even high card

Just lvl em

Just get some flat mult and chips

So u don't have 7 mult x7 from canio, cause it'll look sad

[normal sable]

i'd want eternal blueprint

too much to ask ig

[calm furnace]

annoying i cant get mad at the game

[cloud sinew]

I have to play nebula deck, so not well :(

[latent egret]

it was my 3rd fastest deck to gold stake weirdly enough

[acoustic kettle]

I am never touching black deck

[hard mantle]

im planning on 100%ing balatro

[foggy yew]

So close to being C++ Without being completionist

[pale wolf]

hi mr thunk

my day goes chippingly

[hard mantle]

purple stake has been rough, but its doable if i get lucky i think

[lunar zealot]

i stubbed my toe

[calm turtle]

Do I pick you up to the moon?

[cloud sinew]

it took me ~40 runs to beat purple -> gold for nebula deck on Switch, but for Black Deck I didn't lose a single time from white -> gold 😭

[wintry ice]

i am going to have lunch in 1 minute

[ancient gyro]

slacking off on a future achievement of imminent joy

[lunar zealot]

Wrong

picks you up and moves you to belgium

[ancient gyro]

you will starve

[pale wolf]

what

[wintry ice]

drop a 3 pixel screenshot of 1.1

[ancient gyro]

actually dont

please don't starve

[latent egret]

noooooo

[lunar zealot]

Say that again

[latent egret]

202*

[mental tulip]

Don’t starve is a different game by another Canadian dev 🙂

[cloud sinew]

it's 3 bits.
101
😎

[wintry ice]

thank you for removing me from brazil

[acoustic kettle]

2***

[cloud sinew]

DONT STARVE MENTIONED 🔥

[acoustic kettle]

Probably

[lunar zealot]

they're canadian????

[hard mantle]

me when theres madness at the function

[ancient gyro]

you're not caught up with the don't starve lore 💔

[lunar zealot]

I have the game

grand total of 30 minutes playtime

[wintry ice]

me when i get a cloud 9 in the first shop

[latent egret]

the only annoying thing with madness is that its kinda unfun

but its too good

[pale wolf]

it should say product of canada on the main menu

[ancient gyro]

i just have the game

[latent egret]

you dont interact with it enough

[wintry ice]

the annoying thing about madness is that it's annoying

[mental tulip]

Real gangstas know

[acoustic kettle]

Someone gifted me the game and never downloaded it

[latent egret]

i love the aesthetic but not really the gameplay loop

[pale wolf]

dont starve has lots of stuff in terraria

[wintry ice]

they got a collaboration

[pale wolf]

thats the extent of my knowledge

yeye

[ancient gyro]

terraria is about as much as I'll ever consume don't starve media

[wintry ice]

there will be a lot of dead cells stuff in a game that doesn't restrict your options

[lunar zealot]

Lmao same

[pale wolf]

they must like it

[hard mantle]

its hard to work around yeah, but when it works it WORKS

[latent egret]

its not hard

[lunar zealot]

Madness is fine

[latent egret]

thats why its annoying

[lunar zealot]

x1 per ante is fine

you just need good econ to find good eternals

[latent egret]

you cant choose to get eternals

[lunar zealot]

Which is kind of an oxymoron

[pale wolf]

madness scales well

[cold island]

the IRS doesn’t like this neat trick

[lunar zealot]

madness has good synergy with seed money 😭

[hard mantle]

i love madness

[latent egret]

its kinda unfair because in my mind im comparing it to obelisk

[lunar zealot]

Well not good synergy

but synergy

[pale wolf]

if you compare each category to its best joker then they all look pretty bad mostly

[latent egret]

way better synergy with reroll vouchers

[cold island]

astronaut (what i call space joker) kinda has a weak point and it’s when you use the same hand over and over

[latent egret]

i just find madness so much less interactive

[ancient gyro]

madness has three silly gimmicks I like for its known strength

eternal rng
questionable spending decisions
commitment

[latent egret]

its like comparing castle and stuntman for me, stuntman is less fun because you interact with it less

[cold island]

it’s the point of the joker’s existence but iykyk

[pale wolf]

lilo.

[ancient gyro]

something has to be less interactive than another with the amount of options you have in a roguelike

is typing

[cloud sinew]

ya

[pale wolf]

i mean its just a natural consequence of having a variety of options

[lunar zealot]

Oh if we're talking uninteractive jokers

[atomic trout]

Hehehe

[lunar zealot]

do i have the fuckin joker for you

[atomic trout]

I lost again.

[lunar zealot]

Fellas

[cloud sinew]

showman <3

[lunar zealot]

x1 mult every 23 cards discarde

ok the joke has gotten old

[pale wolf]

why you so happy, losing is easy 😎

[lunar zealot]

I still go by this statement though

[atomic trout]

I like to lose to Ante 0

[ancient gyro]

zebra I have one hour of terraria time baked into my munch break

(conference cancelled)

[pale wolf]

ope

rn?

[ancient gyro]

rn

until like 9 or 10

[meager root]

WTF is this run bruh what do I even do

My hand size is only 4 rn but my deck is 90% king

Do I just go for another juggler and pray for an idol or what

[atomic trout]

Got too cocky

High Card sucks

[meager root]

I’m blueprint brainstorming the yorick for most of my scoring but I also have a negative photo, negative card sharp, and I have an acrobat

[atomic trout]

How do you guys play High Card?

I don't get it

[acoustic kettle]

Not in ante 1

[atomic trout]

Gross...

[acoustic kettle]

Ans like

Just play pairs instead

Why hc

[ancient gyro]

also

rule 10

[atomic trout]

Double Splash?

[plain mirage]

naneinf scoring

[meager root]

Does erosion happen first or last or is it just based on order

[lunar zealot]

based on order

it's not on-scored nor in-hand

[acoustic kettle]

There's rules in this server?

[civic rose]

TIL if you use death to dupe a card that's forced selected, that other card is forced selected as well. I have no idea if this is a bug or not.

[queen dock]

Quite an easy pair build run also got the last legendary gold sticker

[lunar zealot]

the card is in the state of being always selected

you duplicate the card

[queen dock]

Now I can finally start getting other legendaries

[lunar zealot]

and it duplicates all its qualities

including the state of being always selected

this is an intended mechanic

[cerulean remnant]

How do you even mod mobile balatro

[lunar zealot]

Shhhhhhh

[lunar zealot]

no talky

[cerulean remnant]

✌️

[junior cave]

I’ve been thinking about this since wanting to return to Balatro today. How hard is it to play for bigger hands at blue+ stake? I want to push myself to do builds beyond pairs as part of my return.

[acoustic kettle]

Hard

[plain mirage]

lock in with painted

[latent egret]

you need a nudge

so like red/blue/abandonned deck

[acoustic kettle]

Gotta deck fix

[latent egret]

or shortcut

or handsize

[queen dock]

Four cheeseburger

[meager root]

Died ante 13 small blind that was a funny run

[plain mirage]

4 is a lot

[meager root]

Cuz what even were my cards bruh

Jokers

[junior cave]

One of my recent runs I saw how naturally I pivoted to what would become a Flush Five when I got a glass king

[queen dock]

18 large fries

[junior cave]

I knew that it will be useful so I held on for Deaths

So I think I know when to start fixing my deck towards a good build

[junior cave]

I have seen how viable Straight Builds can be with Painted Deck. Would like to look into that.

[queen dock]

732 large diet sodas.

[lunar zealot]

oh i fucking love painted

[acoustic kettle]

Painted and abandoned are great for larger hand builds

[junior cave]

I just want to move away from doing Pairs all the time.

[lunar zealot]

painted is the straights deck and abandoned is the xoak deck

checkered is

Well guess

go on

[queen dock]

Straight flushies

[lunar zealot]

Eh close enough

[plain mirage]

checkered is check misprint in collection 19 times to get flush

[junior cave]

I was tempted to do a wrong answers only response but I get what you mean

[lunar zealot]

erratic deck is an xoak deck if you like holding r

red deck is surprisingly versatile even post blue stake

[acoustic kettle]

I wish erratic is more fun

[lunar zealot]

plasma is

believe it or not

a two pair deck

[unreal iron]

two paiiir

[lunar zealot]

Technically nebula is too

[unreal iron]

when the +20/1

[potent tree]

good morning balatronians

[potent tree]

every deck is a pair deck. you're just being blindsided by the amount of scaling required

anyways. today we begin zodiac deck

[atomic trout]

Least threatening Boss

[potent tree]

spooky negative campfire returns...unfortunately we are too poor to buy!

unless...

[olive basin]

Unless

[potent tree]

nope no credit card in buffoon pack.

[junior cave]

When playing High Card, you’re deriving your score from what’s in your hand such as steel cards.

[olive basin]

You defy the light.

[junior cave]

You need to invest into Tarot cards to make it work

Ideally with jokers that work for in hand cards such as Mime

[lunar zealot]

Your mother

[potent tree]

you did not judge my argument before making that claim, so it cannot be true

[hard mantle]

god purple stake is rough

it'd be nicer if the game would give us something that multiplied

[olive basin]

High card is not a thing you can play early antes unless half joker however the same as any balatro run chips mult and x mult and you too can win with one card

[hard mantle]

EEEUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHHH

[olive basin]

Skill issue Machine

[atomic trout]

Like this?

My High Card game is peak

[hard mantle]

its not a skill issue when the only mult we got was throwback

[olive basin]

Should have thrown it back and busted down on the dance floor

Skill issue

[hard mantle]

im leaking your dms to twitter

[wintry ice]

lol

you would not believe what just happened

[hard mantle]

got a castle stencil build ig

[wintry ice]

the

oh i forgot i can copy superpos

[potent tree]

godlike shop

no immolate in the spectral pack, restarting!

[uncut matrix]

well thats uncommon

[quartz ember]

there was judgement into credit card in arcana pack 🤦‍♂️

[uncut matrix]

pretty cool

[willow frost]

loud incorrect buzzer

[wintry ice]

do i sell sly and sacrifice banana for this

[potent tree]

wow, they have it! SQUARE

[wintry ice]

space joker hit 2 in a row

[atomic trout]

I got Soul

God damnit

[wintry ice]

ok now i grab this

[restive egret]

💀

[hard mantle]

FUCK

FUCK

FUCK MY FUCKING LIFE

ANTE 7 ALMOST WON

[restive egret]

[hard mantle]

BUT JUST COULDNT GET

WE NEEDED

[wintry ice]

[atomic trout]

Nevermind. I win

[wintry ice]

[humble gulch]

I wanted tarot cards...

[wintry ice]

<@&1133519078540185692>

[foggy yew]

I hate plant

[atomic trout]

High Card Champ... On ⚪️ Stakes 😢

[calm furnace]

negative runner looks so happy ❤️

[serene forge]

@ancient gyro

[vivid fox]

Hey all I need some advice on getting naninf i think im close but not sure any adivce would be great

[shell dagger]

your econ isn’t good enough for showman

[vivid fox]

What jokers should i be targetting right now?

sell invis for another dupe card?

[atomic trout]

What?

[pale wolf]

<@&1133519078540185692>

bot failure

[vivid fox]

its getting there, still not sure when i need to switch to burglar

my deck fixing is pretty decent I think, but so confused at the point to stop going gold and go all in on steel

[shell dagger]

after ante 24

stop rerolling entirely

[ancient gyro]

oh

[vivid fox]

Dont even know what im rerolling for atm tbh

dont i have almost everything

[ancient gyro]

borgalr

[vivid fox]

how many steel do i need?

[ancient gyro]

somewhere in the forties

[calm furnace]

obelisk ante 8 shop 1 hurts

been ages since i had an obelisk run

[wary flicker]

man I hate zodiac deck

[calm furnace]

huh why

[willow frost]

you can still get it to like x3

[calm furnace]

its hella strong

[wary flicker]

first ante shops are painful

[bronze linden]

i love an early obelisk - it doesnt really activate till later but its nice to have it to work towards

[calm furnace]

nah i died i had a winning run and threw

[willow frost]

ah rip

[calm furnace]

this scores 460k ez win

[willow frost]

you couldnt swap space joker?

[calm furnace]

but i took the risk on obelisk and paid for it

[calm furnace]

i sold space man for obelisk but couldnt score 200k

[willow frost]

how come

[ancient gyro]

space and obby licks have conflict assuming he used space for a while

[calm furnace]

the obelisk would have worked if it showed 2 shops earlier

[bronze linden]

the 1.5 surely wasnt that difficult to make up for with obelisk ?

[willow frost]

yeah id think not

[calm furnace]

square was at like 140 something

but most of my scoring was coming for mercury levels

[bronze linden]

ahhhh ok ok

[ancient gyro]

as I said about the joker conflict

[bronze linden]

so maybe shouldnt have been an obelisk oivot then

[calm furnace]

the right play there was to sell square joker and pop the wraith

the wraith had HTR in it

and i have 6 jacks

[lilac trellis]

Why couldn't mime have showed up dawg 😭

[calm furnace]

and square was adding next to nothing to my score

the two right plays were both to ignore obelisk

the built itself scores more than 400k

or could take the wraith and shoot for potentially higher score

[willow frost]

obelisk couldnt make up for a next to nothing square?

oh wait nvm

[calm furnace]

died at 136k playing 3 high cards and a 2 pair

[willow frost]

i have short term memory it seems

[calm furnace]

HTR run would have been cool

also now i realize im extra dumb because that baseball only had 2 more rounds in it

so if i scaled obelisk the baseball dies

but i guess i could have sold baseball and popped HTR with the scaled obelisk

anyway

last time i pick square grimbo combo its so 🥱

[raw whale]

evil

[calm furnace]

not really

[ancient gyro]

what's evil about it

[calm furnace]

only evil if you playing some sensitive hand type that does like deck bloat

but for pairs its a good option

[raw whale]

quite literally impossible to do feck dixxing

[calm furnace]

guaranteed 0.75x an ante if you find hologram

lots of puprle and blue seals

[raw whale]

isk should i take it? i have photocad with eternal cad

[vivid fox]

How many steel cards in hand do i need to get with burglar when i get it ?

[calm furnace]

what hand are you playing

[raw whale]

not really sure but like full house mostly

[calm furnace]

if full house then dont

FH you want to cut down as many cards

but since you already got photo

play 3oak

[shell dagger]

44

[wintry ice]

is this a good case for runner

[tight pike]

I hate it when this happens

[ancient gyro]

that is your deck fixing

[calm furnace]

it scales the same as full house and you get 3 different face card 3oaks a round easier than full house

[wintry ice]

my flushes are lvl 1

[calm furnace]

straight flush pivot

[wintry ice]

i'm probably sticking to flushes

[ancient gyro]

gasp

[wintry ice]

or actually flush houses since i'm not far off

[calm furnace]

with flush house no need for extra chips

like 2 or 3 ceres and you are above 200 chips

[tight pike]

"Balatro isn't luck based"
Alright then explain why when the stuff I need shows up, it is too expensive

[wintry ice]

do you need an ante 1 brainstorm to win

[calm furnace]

200 chips + like 60 mult with the onyx x vampire

[wintry ice]

the answer is obviously not

[calm furnace]

thats a W

open that card pack and pray for a blue seal

[wintry ice]

okay this is a case for straights now

[tight pike]

No but it happens way more often than it should

[ancient gyro]

"I can only win the good runs 💔"

[calm furnace]

ante 1 brainstorm is like??

unless you get it from a skip tag

and its free

the 10$ is too expensive

or if you are on yellow

[ancient gyro]

one of the worst picks in terms of survival

[tight pike]

I don't reset my runs early though

[ancient gyro]

I don't reset period

[calm furnace]

i had a ghost deck run i had 2 poly brainstorm and 1 blueprint

[west stirrup]

Here there is a naninf, but what needs to be done so that nan falls out as a -nan?

[ancient gyro]

ok

[calm furnace]

i died at ante

2

[ancient gyro]

🗣️

[shell dagger]

naneinf mult before balancing

or mods

[calm furnace]

turns out brainstorm and blueprint kissing each other alone doesnt win runs

[ancient gyro]

@wintry ice r u able to get on terrariuh

[tight pike]

Erratic deck is funny tbh

[crimson hinge]

anyone knows if vampire eats red seals?

[ancient gyro]

this shit gonna fry my rice

[wintry ice]

probably

[tight pike]

No only editions

[ancient gyro]

seals aren't enhancements

[calm furnace]

it doesnt eat seals

[tight pike]

I call em editions even though they are called enchantments

[calm furnace]

wait

make a joker that sucks seals

[crimson hinge]

idk if it's even worth using tbh

[west stirrup]

That is, a very large number, which is greater than naninf?

[calm furnace]

insane synergy for cert holo build

[distant vault]

I just died

[wintry ice]

i think i should have taken the runner

i had 0 chips

[ancient gyro]

me and zebra are having issues joining each other's servers and idk where the root of the issue is coming from

[calm furnace]

+15 chips from sucking a seal

[ancient gyro]

shoulda coulda woulda

[tight pike]

Very fucking strong

[ancient gyro]

not really

[calm furnace]

as strong as runner

[wintry ice]

seals are rare

[tight pike]

Eh to be fair you can't get seals as easily

[ancient gyro]

seals are not easy to apply

[calm furnace]

outside of ghost deck

and cert

[tight pike]

Unless you got perkeo

[wintry ice]

you need either spectrals or standard packs

[ancient gyro]

outside of any deck

[calm furnace]

15 chips per seal are actually not much

[wintry ice]

and it'd be a massive waste because of how powerful seals are

[calm furnace]

that too

[ancient gyro]

permanently removing planet value and other deck warping abilities

[calm furnace]

if anything sucking a seal should net a higher reward

maybe 25 chips

[wintry ice]

conversion theraphy

is green joker still useful if i have lvl 8* straights in ante 2

i think i'll just take bean instead

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[junior cave]

This, High Card you do need to put in the effort of deck fixing from what I see to make it effective

[raw whale]

the great vegan run

[olive basin]

Go ahead there only balatro and ultrakill in those dms uwu

[junior cave]

I said it before, I don’t do High Card until I get a joker to let me play into it. Mike was mentioned but Vagabond is another that lets me do such builds.

[south palm]

Chat do i take mime

[raw whale]

take madness

[sturdy lagoon]

hmm, absolute cinema i guess

[olive basin]

True.

[lost vault]

get one glass card homie

[raw whale]

hmm does scary face go away here

[sturdy lagoon]

@lost vault I was thinking about that but these jokers look crazy good in my opinion

[lost vault]

(youd need a glass to clear the plant .^.)

[worthy cape]

I'm new to balatro and I was wondering if y'all had any tips for black stakes I have it available for ghost deck and I struggle with the white stake on the red,blue,and green decks so any help would be appreciated thx

[lost vault]

ummmm get good idk

[raw whale]

hmm

[cedar shell]

fuck is hiker doing

[wintry ice]

do i sell stuff for this

maybe ttm could go

i kinda wanna keep luchador since wall is in 2 rounds

[raw whale]

chad value

[cedar shell]

i meannnnnnnn

but the cat is a cool guy

[raw whale]

oh no...
