maybe carto high rolls into suit changers
highrolls into suit changers 🥀
ancient joker vibes
how bad do you want that juggler, i think you could pull off an ancient joker
i have a lot of blue seals and i'd rather not fumble the run because of holding them
ok now i have to hold less of them
oh my god what shall i sacrifice
photo
Wow
i could also just win
why
temperance value
is this good?
idk what ur deck is but id suggest going with the bloodstone being copied by the brainstorm
and the oops at its right
Hello
then the chad so u get the polychrome value
hello
How's everyone's day been?
fine hbu
the amazing ancient joker run
im ancient joker's slave
I lost my black deck gold stakes run final boss because of the one that disables jokers every hand
ohh
It literally hit the worst possible jokers every time
sry for u
Other than that it's been going good
chat what are we doing here
what tf is that deck 💔 ✌️
erratic
damn i'm starting to speedrun zodiac deck it seems.
apparently the plan was to fucking die
i have a better question
I would probably get rid of scholar for business card and maybe smiley for chad but it depends on deck and levels
the great food combo?
Hmm I’d probably swap smiley for chad if you’re just looking to win tbh, should be an easy win though
Ok thx so much
might've bugged the game
probably a modded thibg
I lost
Naurrr
In the most stupid way posible
i take trading over sly? or chad (i have a few lucky cards)
Zamn
Almost definitely, 50 chips is not gonna matter much for scoring
How?
😭
guys?
Funny
what a waste of money
Gift card funny
you could have farmed money with faceless and blueprint 🥀
I don't know, I just want to beat the decks
gng i just got past ante 12 doing my best!
It's my second file already
at first i was going for flush fives which was the obly way to survive but then i realised this was basically baron mime so i swtched over to it]
and started playing high cards but i didnt level em up thorougly enough so i died on ante 13
first time getting more than a billion tho
What a loss
sos un bot
what?
why is flush most played
????
shouldn't it be pair or 2pair
Blueprint never appeared guys
This was too close.
The Eye forced me to
i have potential to do something really funny
that's one round. doesn't explain how it's your most played hand
what were trousers and grimbo at
oof. do i drop something for erosion? bus is at 41 currently
if you keep cutting you could drop bus
might as well drop bus
erosion is at like 56 rn
it’s already better than it and will scale faster
yeah
what is optimal copying for baron and mimes
both on baron
bet
im so pissed this is yellow deck though
otherwise it wouldve been a high score i think
maybe with serpent
abandoned deck but better i guess
and yes i haven't found places to put steel or gold on my blue seal
the ONE blind i can lose to with this build appears.
wait
nvm acrobat can clutch
Common acrobat W
I hate acrobat
also forgot i had grabber in my shop
so we good.
definitely picking up erosion over bus was the right call.
i understand the power of trading card now
My first ever perkeo i got was negative and bc that was my first perkeo i didn't realize the colors were wrong and for some reason didn't read the negative effect so i fumbled the run cause i had one free joker spot and i only realized that in my last round
trading card + erosion is so goated
L
mult
+4 mult per card under starting amount
+4
trading card is so goated
help guys my game isn’t progressing 😭😭😭😭😭😭 (i play ios)
Holy shit
Erosions is much better than i thought it was
:3
equivalent to one good card every round
i need to make use of it lowkey. usually my deck thinning isnt great
ehhhh it's only rly good with an already veey thin deck ot trading card
if u already have a very thin deck youre probably very late gsme and it isn't good enough/ u alreafy have like 5 xmult options instead
I can't send gifs for some reason but insert peak writing gif
this chat has them disabled i believe
yeah thunk disallowed gifs here some time ago
the curse of madness runs
One round, many Hands
noooo he can’t fit 😭
ectoplasm in the spectral pack trust
Yeah same (especially since i love my certificate+hologram combo)
negative gift card is so fwiggin tuff yo
i've opened like 15 already and not a single one
that’s business card
i meant business card
mmm
idk why i said GIFT CARD 😭
negative gift card would also rock
except for temperance value
oh rock\
i thought you said suck mb
I didn't screen shot but my last run i got 5.5x on throwback and 7.5 on astronomer + copy
this is fecked
i'm being bullied for a shop 1 madness
but alas
highly unfortunate to roll this blind. but at least run is done
its funny that gift card is basically only good because temperance is in the tarot pool
i can't think of many jokers who have their power level changed so drastically because of a single other thing existing in the game
Sell out for bluey and go naked against the boss, or keep green and chaos?
this run hates me
that's green joker right
i would keep that probably
Yeah
pretty nice set of 2 jokers and tanking your econ seems bad
Ok that's what I thought, ty
alright NOW run has concluded. needle into wall is vile.
oh damn we only fell about 500k short
19 antes and no dang directors
i will admit i didnt buy every voucher i encountered though


oh damn i have a 5 winstreak, from white to blue stake on zodiac
holy sweat
(don't ask how many white stake zodiac runs i fumbled)
there are people who have 70+ winstreaks on gold stake
fair enough 😭
we are slowly progressing towards 1 percent of all players getting c++
currently at 0.7 according to steam
when i got it it was about 0.4
name more random combination, i'll wait
i forgot to buy the director 🤡
E G G
Nice egg
I misplayed and forgot my glass jack and it ruined it FAH
Instead of Balatro this game should be called "Card Sharp saved my ass again" this thing needs a nerf imo
I'm almost sick of seeing it. I just passed on it in a run because I was growing lucky cat and pivoting to 3oak
It was only red stake though, it it were high stakes I probably wouldve fit it in and stuck with pairs
correlation = causation
card sharp does NOT need a nerf lmao
doesnt work with so many builds and a couple bosses
If you find an early Sharp it's just about gg, and for many builds it is a complete life saver late
needle
eye
straight builds
i didnt expect that
If you see sharp ante 1 or 2 don't you take it 9 times out of 10? I do
Depends on the stickers or my econ
High card and pair enabler, one of the best ones
Definitely doesnt need a nerf
Can name 10 better
Dose anyone have a spare ps code I want the game
It's only $10 for mobile version, the best vanilla version
most xmult jokers are an instant take that early
like i'd take a vampire if it was offered
baron sucks
Maybe it's just me, been playing over a year now and the number of times I've been saved by card sharp on ante7\8 I can't count on my fingers and toes
help what the fuck do i do
a blueprint could be anything, even a brainstorm!!!
Blueprint is more favorable than brainstorm if you must
i mean you'd probably sell chad if you have enough ranks to play 4oak fib cards

theres also an argument to sell brainstorm for copying xmult
or just do nothing and go next
yeah thats the most sensible thing to do
tribe could also go
unless you hit flush 5 or something
You got the deck towards do so? You can do that then
Do show the deck contents too to help us understand
Why else would I play flushes tho
tribe isnt exactly great how would i know owo
flush 5 8s are okay tho
with current setup
Apparently selling Chad was the move
Ante 8
nvfm then
violet vessel
I'm done for 💔
Guess who decided to show up
Gonna have to say bye to perkeo
...glup
I was about the remark that violet vessel might not be a total loss but idk how much you’re scoring on average
OR MAYBE
I just know it’s a notorious pair killer
meow
mreeeow
:3 miauu
Funny combo
im noticing some things
and none of them make sense
perkeo 
How so?
And that is enough lol
you understand
thats meeeeee
Did you draw these?
dw abt it
@2L06AKO
its not the first, certainly it won't be the last
check them out i think thats their handle
Good start how we feelin
you may not need the duo if you wanna go for three stickers
also no rental burden but maybe only sell it after you see something more appealing
Only thing I could use is dl or cavendish
4 Jimbos left
Which 4?
Seance, smeared, tourb, obelisk
obby licks more like free licks
Wow, I got all them lol
Well, i got all the rest 😛
Guys whats the most fun deck?
black
😭
Fact checked
a candy
omg
iwa nt c and y
im more of a chips person
i wa nt ch i ps

may i introduce you to stuntman
fritos
<@&1133519078540185692> prize
Anyone know what's happening?
Green Stake has now been beaten
Good job 
🔫
Guys whats better, checkered or abandoned deck?
2nd
Only like idk 3 more stakes
Abandoned
a band
thanks
Alr ty
No face cards means free deck fixing
yayy can't wait
Only issue is that the first rounds are not easy to get going
Ptsd alert (iykyk)
♾️ ⏰ 💲


eternal lack of gratification
more delayed maybe
i dislike eternal delayed gratification if i do not already have specifically green joker
Ts gold stake fr
or like an eternal banner
Sock or scary?
Any gamers in here?
no
o, I'll go then
maybe
We're all musicians actually
no video gaming in here
Oh! I'm a composer
Sht ._.
I mean, yeah, nice
im not rly a composer yet but maybe i should do music theory classes
Hmm, you don't need music theory to make music
buuut it would help, no?
It might unless it stops you from trying and experimenting
I use soundtrap, its free
So I won on one of my first tries with the blue deck, and now I can't beat any other deck after countless attempts
I don't get it, it went from easy to impossible
smartest photochad user
3 more wins to c+ !!!
"here, win" has escaped containment
ok so the options are
mid scoring joker
literal free win
and they’re focused on the mid???
It’s only white stake ig
i’d be freaking out if i saw a foil trousers that early
thats a dumb excuse
you can still lose on white stake
Oh 😥
(they did)
no it ain't lmao
relying on a specific rare and a specific common
and getting countered by suit blinds
oh god

it destroys your method of avoiding suit bosses, so the smeared cannot be eternal, but it is a synergy
this has to be the best turn 1 shop ive ever seen
holy naneinf
I hope so if the vouchers are good
gg
how the fuck did this even happen fr lmao
"might"
dunno but if you want the seed you can have it, make you skip small blind, 5BFS1IFJ
Do not tempt me.
I hate The Idol
I love The Idol
Finally someone who plays the subjectively most fun deck.
I idol the hate
worse
I hate obelisk
Y'all still doing bs bro
to early for baron?
when is friends of jimbo 5?
fortune teller is useless
pick it up
summit is useless too
i dropped summit fo rit
any mult is usless in plasma
i need kings now i guess
The heroic and amazing stuntman
specifically here you have arrowhead which means you have stability until you can get baron online
Tuesday
jokers: The Idol, RTB (+43), Blueprint (Foil), The Duo, The Duo
which tuesday?
Unknown
Uhhh ankh?
Or invis
ahhh
invis the GOAT
throwback is actually horrendous never getting baited into using this thing again
LETS GOOOOO
@hybrid tendon lmao
this is true
don't do it
When do I stop with Perkeo?
not now
Keep in mind, not plasma,
oh not plasma
if you can meet score reqs then keep farming plutos
when you can't then you dig for burglar and find serpent every ante
granted you need retcon
Horse
I have retcon
Just no hand size vouchers yet
Plus this is on a new file, so popped an ecto onto rebate
Also don't mind the number of plutos
does blue joker count the cards in hand for its chips?
it reads the cards left in deck
so no
...how could I try to get my PS4 data to the PS5 I use?
I know I used the cloud to download the save, but the PS5 version isn't looking for the PS4 data on boot up.
np :3
I hate Bloodstone
I love bloodstone.
Black deck was cooking
...
Ok, so I guess next Balatro update if I'm lucky or..?
genuine question, do the spectral cards that are like destroy x cards and give x type of cards have like bias towards the type of cards it will give(if giving face cards is it more likely to destroy a face card)
This ain't the first time, and I probably gonna have to live with missing my first ever Balatro save to being stuck on PS4 version like Goat Sim 3.
So I'm outta luck.
Score with all gold
why would you think that
man i wonder
no
thanks for telling me the answer instead of questioning me
reading the card explains the card
unless it's matador
whats with matador
its description sucks
oh wait i know what you mean nvm
i thought of luchador instead of matador but yeah that one does suck
lmao
anotha run with no gold stickers ughhh
this is like asking if wheel is really a 1 in 4
it may not feel like it
but yes
it is
its 4/150 i cant be THAT hard
you cant?
which ones are you missing
swear i havent seen rough gem in ages
it feel like every once in a while theyll just fuck up the fraction for things so maybe youll have every glass break or never hit a wheel, or if youre lucky get an unbreakable glass which is pretty nice
Except that wheel is actually a 1/2 chance cause either it happens or it doesn't. 
rough gem
the order
diet cola
glass joker
me when probabilities arent always perfectly 1 in every 4
that's what we call survivorship bias
misinput 😭 💔
if you take wheel 100 times you'll get hits about 1 in 4 times
but you'll remember your misses more
Yeah, cause it would have happened more. :p
yeah i think ive seen that one plane on survivorship bias and tbh its barely enough to understand this
if you take wheel infinite times youll get a hit exactly 1 in every 4
-# granted thats kinda irrelevant because infinity is impossible
tbf i never take glass cards normally, that one will be probably the last one i get
take them
potential free deckfixing
and score boost on demand
glass joker is also amazing in general
very underrated
yeah or just saving your ass against plant or some major debuff to deck in general
I know i am a way off but a negative rebate makes naninf so much easier
Any of the econ jokers on negative it's really solid
my deck fixing is good aswell, my issue is when do i pivot fully into steel cards
doing a black deck run to confirm i can still play the game
now watch me sell
i played 2 lucky cards with this and they got 1 hit total first hand
wait how does the chance of glass breaking work with repeat jokers
wtf is this rng
couls take both i guess and sell brainstorm
yeah or that
most cracked seed ive ever seen
yeah thats wild
doesn't interact at all, it's a single instance of the 1/4 break chance no matter how many triggers
I just did a run on blue stake black deck (because I hadn't played the game in a bit so I just spun a wheel), and i beat it, but my brain the entire time was like "no you have 5 joker slots, you only have 5 joker slots" so am I just too cool for bonuses or just stupid?
pretty common mistake, literally every other deck only has 5 slots, and typically the 6th slot on Black deck doesn't even come into play until about ante 4
Damn it. Flushes suck
wait if i get like really unlucky with tarot packs im just gonna lose soon
What?
Like the lose screen is in portuguese
Mexican Spanish
yea
sell showman??????
no trust its to get even better bp and brainstorm eventually
damn i got glass joker at ante 7 first shop, im pretty unlucky with it but im not tryna sell so ill probably not take it
do I take cavendish?
ive been getting 2 mil with this setup and dont know if this will pivot too much
Negative so yeah ofc
is that not negative? if so why not
well yeah, why wouldnt i ?
mostly cause of bloodstone!
and? still free multi
oh shit wait
idj .^.
for the cost of $9 once obv
i forgot that aspect
She doesn't know
🥹🥀🥀
damn i really just sold when i had a shit ton of glass cards and 3 chads
onto the next run i go
I sold my showman and the brain storm and took both, better to have a poly brainstorm
Don't worry
I discovered 10h after my first time
Wait wrong reply
yeah i was so confused
-# Yeah your message reminded me of a very unfortunate loss...
-# So many retriggers ...
-# A photo chad...
-# A lucky cat...
i want to get a run like that
-# Many lucky cards...
If I’m losing, I’m going on my own terms
That's like 1% of runs that get past ante 4
also preferably without the loss before ante 8
Devastating
Owww
mr bones saved my ass because i got 24 less than enough and completely forgot i had him
This one was awesome too
Couldn't find anything (except a negative space joker) that could help me
what does raised fist do for stone, does it just ignore it and go to the next card left?
Oh i won
The blackboard was shop 1 or 2 iirc so don't worry about it
Yeah
was so confused at that first misspell
0x2 = 0 ?
Yeah
Owww,,,
-# Says the insane person with a run that has level 20 flush five D:
-# Not the one i showed just another less interesting one
And also i get these types of things all the time :)
-# I got another 7$ joker at small blind and targeted the invisible ofc
-# It was the useless spade suit uncommon joker
good
Arrowhead is pretty good
barely scraped by
GAWWWW LUCKY BUTT but very ow:(
ok question
It is
It's just that there's options that i prefer
-# Bleh,,,
I doubt anyone has the answer but I'll still ask
mmm?
Mhmm
if i download balatro ps4 version and I already had balatro ps5 version
would the save data still be there
Is there any sort of cloud storage on playstation?
On every games
If not
Babaii save data
pretty sure
well you cant really make an acc on balatro ish? idk but i think thats a 50/50
either yes save or baibai
Every single one ?
Yeah works too
I hate Bloodstone
WHAT
Me too
-# That's why i don't mind if the ancient joker isn't on hearts :P
So close
the suit that aj chooses does not matter
FLUSHES don't suck
probably should’ve sold marble joker earlier
this game is so evil
first ever recorded amver acorn loss
its plasma tbf
any boss is a threat there
my setup was dusk chad hiker marble bean 
due to pure scaling
plasma deck might be my least favorite in the game
dude in the stone art contest:

I CANT PICK YOU UP DAWG 😭 💔
Holy cow
damn
up... dawg?
Lmfao
whats dagger at
34
show pair levels
whats 34 on
or whatever hand
obelisk???
34 is not a joker
really struggling for points now, is it more points to drop something and take dna ? downbad for ectoplasm and vouchers
what hand are youy playing
obby licks
none, these are my hand levels
just hit 4oak every time and you dont need runner

l already pased that shop btw, there was empty voucher so i can only hope for antimatter to appear
my spjimbo hates me
fart smella 🧠
-# Buh if you think that this is a lot look at all my winning games
-# 0 planets until ante 10 ;-;
literally how bro
-# I forgot
-# quiet time
-# Like this
-# it's because niko oneshot is too young to yell
Idk it's when i add seemingly useless informations
I've got 5 wins now, a win each on white stake for each of the basic colored decks. This means all the decks I have left to unlock are unlocked with progressively higher stakes
I want to get more practice in with the game so I can improve and have a better intuition, should I go for say checkered/abandoned deck wins or try blue/yellow decks with red stake and further to start
I feel like I should go with checkered deck
-# Grrr
Try to go for higher stakes
It's funny
checkered deck promotes spamming flushes which is not a reliable playstyle in higher stakes
if you want to brute force improvement then play abandoned deck or black deck
hi guys currently ante 17 on plasma
i should drop the brain storm for a DNA right? still looking for the anti matter voucher and currently capping at e40 with 3 Dna's on Baron and 1 brainstorm on mime.
they're some of the harder and faster to unlock decks
-# And face deck nerfs erosion (is that it ?) into the ground lol
abandoned does in fact nerf erosion
the literal only reason I won black deck was rolling yorick early and getting to almost x7 before I used both ankh and blueprint in the 8th ante
yes
so idk if I'm ready to return to black deck
Black deck is awesome
shit's fucking hard
ty this is my first actl run at a nan inf possible while just playing casually on plasma learning it
If you die alot on ante 1
It's better at like ante 4/5 i agree
thats what makes it good for brute forcing improvement
hmm
okay so I guess I'm leaning on red stake on either blue or yellow deck at least to start for now, kinda ease into it
-# God forbid using hieroglyph on black deck
-# Oh wait i do that anyway
black deck limits you (in most cases) especially as a new player so learning the basic winning strategies should just generall improve you
Can anyone teach me how to play I’m new
oh this is good
Can anyone teach me how to play?

I'm gonna fucking lose but it's okay LOL
pair
-# discovered balatro's youtube community at 40hr of playtime ;-;
black deck gets hard at blue stake
Indeed
not having the extra hand was already rough for economy on black deck white stake
its more of a nuisance to have -1 hand before blue stake
after that its actually difficult to win
is the set up im running currently optimal? 3 BP baron 1 BS mime? i tried other combo's it wont go past e40
show deck
try to turn clubs into steel first
and since you have no steel 3 baron 1 mime copies is sufficient
thank you thank you hopefully thats enough till i find that DNA
trigger vs score is 4 and 4 so it is optimal
At shop 1 you don't care a lot about your hands you always have a 4$ buffoon pack
Try to spam (only ante 1)
Flushes
If you have the occasion to use a full house do it (it's better most of the time)
And get scoring ready asap
If you have mail-in you can skip on some scoring (if you don't go into boss blind because if you don't have the right rng on boss blind you just die)
why you count the triggers do u consider the red seals as one already?
red seal is 1 trigger
mime is another
brainstorm is another
initial trigger is another
so 4
ah the intial trigger
then baron procs 4 times per trigger
mb i picked up balatro around mid december, thank you so much!
What a run.
this is an incredible run for being such a new player
glass joker gs!!!
3 remain
its very normal to be confused especially when doing high score so early
i no lifed this game the past week im at 120 hrs already
-# I'm the one that goes into boss blind with only economy yeah,,,
glad it wasnt the last one i dont gotta search for it ever again
Yeah true
my friend knows i like maxing out games so he introduced me to balatro
zamn
My last one is marble
I hate it
bro hates the ocean
the highest ive gone is e63 iirc and that was with a double trib
ball knowledge joke
what 3 are you missing son
Accidentally Royal Flushed
rough gem
diet cola
the order
dude HOW are you missing cola
not too bad tbh
That's awesome
Also i find that funny
Everyone's first high scoring run is with trib lol
that's such a funny combo of 3 jokers to be missing
it never appeared in that lovely last shop
its bad
and when i did get it i always used it
-# And most of the time hates the plant because of that
-# /
-# victim
actually no it makes sense every time i try to sticker cola i end up getting leaf on a build where it matters
(i suck at setting up pairslop)
ik 😭
a bad econ, a consumable and one i should already have
Rough gem
Skipped it on a run with 80 8's of diamonds with lucky cards (dna lol)
Cola (understand why)
The order
Is it foak ?
If it is
Woaaaa
order is the straights one
the order is straights
Especially with socks
Lots of them
Lots lots lots lots
Oh yeah
This one has a particular place in my trash
nice try blud 😭 c tier joker at most
-# Flush's rare being at the bottom of the trash
Socks
Socks
Lots of them
Think about it
-# I love rough gem it's such an awesome joker
if i had a nickel for every time i took an early eternal banner on gold stake, i'd have 2 nickels.
i just need a delagrat now
question when u have baron on a steel card does that mean its triggered twice?
no
mime triggers steel twice
-# If i had a nickel for every Oops! I took shop 1 and that became an awesome run i would become a new company
baron only triggers when there is a king in hand
yea so when u have baron and the king is a steel card how do u count that
baron triggers once then steel triggers once
its 1.5 x 1.5 already but does that mean its 2 triggers? then the mime which triggers that effect twice?
I hate Bloodstone
thank you for your input hornet
balatrodle in 2
Ooh awesome concept
balatrodle in 4
Also the world is pretty small
We have a friend in common
Happened to me soo much lately
wym concept you havent played balatrodle??
Nope
Never heard
look it up its very fun
ofc not today, you already got the answer lmao
after the DNA i need 44 steel copies right?
Can you do past days ?
then followed by looking for the burglar?
44 steel cards in hand
and i realized i need retcon
sadly not 😭
Bleh boycott
-# jk
What do you need to unlock?
yup ive sold it so just copying my steel ones rn
for lucky cat? you need atleast 1 lucky card in your deck
Nono you
I know how to get in run
146/150
:P
on checkered deck red stake i had photochad, 2 ancient jokers and showman
then i had to face the plant and the ancient jokers were on club on ante 5
so i ended up loosing
rip
OH right lmao
im actually missing 3 (147/150), just hadnt updated it, theyre:
rough gem
diet cola
the order
Bleh
The plant isn't that bad
-# Unless sock and no rerolls even in tags
divine intervention due to using pareidolia
it is when im playing face cards
:0
-# Tbh i die more to small blinds
-# Or the one that locks you onto one hand type...
-# While i'm playing dna
also one of my ancient jokers was a negative
Buh
ik it was such a good run
Also another funny thing is that
You know the bell ?
Or the one that discards two cards?
These ones always end up helping me
Never died because of bad rng
i was having with straight as well
which was going well
until this boss bind drop
Hurts...
I hate black deck
listens closely
Hey folks, I'm curious, is there ever a point at which to sell my Runner? He's at 465 chips which is effectively 7 x2 Mult Jokers (correct me if I'm wrong please). The choice I'm considering then is selling Baseball Bro as at the moment he's only 3 x1.5s, which can theoretically be more with Mime, but I used this run to unlock the 2nd Card In Shop voucher so my deck is thick as hell, so the odds aren't high
listens closely
If I ever skip a rare joker and I see obelisk I know it’s time to pack it up for the day
There's worse don't worry
Tap the sign (Picture El Simpsone meme with text of Roffle saying "To get good at Gold Stake you need to learn how to use Obelisk")
I know that’s local thunk saying, hey man it’s time to stop playing for the day
I know I quoted it but I paraphrased please don't kill me
Yeah
Also don't forget the comp++ achievement :)
Nearly there, got the 5 hand size voucher to unlock and 3 including it to buy in shop, and I'm there, thanks!
unfortunatley my run ended
pretty insane run bro
dint have retcon so blind got to me
needle will get ya
I actually technically got that one but without thinking I reduced my hand size twice I think so when I entered a blind it was less than 5
Ante 25, zamn
but yea was a fun run esp thanks to ur help i learnt how to count the baron and the intial trigger
The comp++ is the one with every jokers at gold 0:
Oh 😔 Long way to go then
Means more of the journey, more sights to see
Atm I'm doing every deck in order by stake, so until I beat a deck on all stakes I don't move on to the next
RNG kills a lot of the higher stake runs but there's also a lot of RNG I can mitigate and risks I can choose to avoid, so there is much to learn
True
-# That's why i haven't done plasma at red stake

Generally, prioritize rarity
with a few exceptions for ones that have prereqs (glass joker, stone joker, etc.)
There's a few basic tips, such as;
When playing a flush round 1, you need 40 or more chips from your cards to get 300+, so Diamonds QJ1064 would be exactly enough, whereas QJ1063 would require an extra card;
Playing the hand you're given, like when you get a full house than can make up a chunk of the score but you have a straight or a flush that can beat the blind in 1 hand - you could risk it and dig for the 1 hand win, but generally you're better playing the guaranteed 2/3 hand win than going for a 1 hand win and ending up losing the run;
Don't go autopilot and forget to move around jokers like Brainstorm and Blueprint, and don't forget to move cards in hand for Photo, Chad, so on!!! VERY IMPORTANT
Another thing is watching some of Dr Spectred's runs and learning his thought process - he stops and ponders decisions at most of the steps of the way, between what hands are more likely to go for even as early as round 1, what order to do things in, whether now's a good time to sell and buy a lategame joker or if it's too early and risky, so on.
These'll get you to considerable progress. I have learned throughout many things that it's easy to enter autpilot automatically in games and in real life, and that life is much better if you take your time and learn to think things through. Your winrates will be better, you'll feel that juicy feeling of your brain working (I miss it please come back), and it will feel much more rewarding knowing you gave it your all and didn't lose to a simple mistake without thinking about it
-# "i miss it please come back"
-# Never has been so true on any deck that i like (except spectral and black deck)
thank you very much what is the ante
I have played this godforsaken game for 60 hours and I'm still so bad at it
how in the actual hell are y'all getting shit like this
Hologram
Lucky cat
Blueprint
Brainstorm
Dna
That is very straightforward
Faster
Blackboard was earlygame
Space joker was just before
pretty good for an ante 8 run ngl
100 hours ish ?
same ive prolly put 10 houes in in the past 2 days and im so bad
I've been playing for a couple months T-T
I can't get past ante 4 on like 80% of my runs ;-;
I'm just rngcarried sometimes ;-;
Round 1 is Ante 1 Small Blind
whats is blind what does that mean
-# Terraria and my 3 slime staffs spiffo plush RoD before banner and alot more
The little things you score against
theres small, medium, and large blinds
3 each ante
haha
Also I appreciate the Walter White pfp, watching Malcolm in the Middle rn and it's my goat Bryan Cranston in the spotlight
lmao
noooooo
I havent messed around in modded balatro yet, is it anything fun?
why he a rental and perishable
I've literally never seen those tags T-T
hit polychrome off aura lets go
gold stake
usually not worth
unless its ante 1 and theres a tag that will for sure jumpstart your economy (eg 25 bucks for boss)
or you save up hella skips and get something you want
usually yea cuz you dont even get a good one
or one that fits your setup
its too random to be in any way decent
mk mk
if its early you could skip for a rare and build your setup around it ig
no never do that
its not a good idea but sometimes it could work
if youre in a gambly mood theres no harm in trying if its early
itll never be better than playing the round for sure
love the hollo knight pfp
got it
THE ORDER GOLD STICKER!!!
2 REMAIN
at least a rare skip, other times it could be better
DAMN
the last one now is between rough gem or diet cola now
Oh, that's another one I remembered recently - usually outside of ante 1 as Lacroix said you don't want to do skips because you're missing out on shop opportunities and in-blind triggers like gold seal/card or lucky, the face money Jokers, so on. However, either Roffle or Spectred once said that if you want to go for a negative joker, you should first consider where your scaling is right now. If you can comfortably beat the current blinds, there's an argument to go for the tag. Otherwise, it's too risky.
You may also find that the higher stake you go (and on green deck) you have less money production in your average run, so going for skips gets a bit better
These happen to be like the only 2 times I watched Roffle, not that I have anything against the guy, I just prefer to actually play the game myself now, or if I need background chore footage I'd rather just watch Malcolm
I see
voucher skip can be good if you have your deck and jokers fully setup and still need vouchers
ok ok
in lategame endless
Pretty solid run
Was running polychrome queen of diamonds
So this part kinda screwed me
Should I be more focused on building my deck, or my jokers, or should it be a balance?
Healthy balance of both tbh
as someone that only plays on gold stake whenever i play on white it feels so weird
Question, do I drop a brainstorm/Perkeo for DNA, or just die
Very, the more money you have the more opportunities you have to get jokers, vouchers, shape your deck
Are you okay bromine?
Is this seeded or unseeded?
Brotein shake, brohemian rhapsody, brobro siwa
I just need know
Unseeded
gold stake is super fun ngl
But I screenshoted the seed
Holy shit
makes me think about my runs more
Whenever I do gold stake (I’ve done it on 3 decks) I feel like game ending myself
the satisfying part is winning despite the game hating on you
or when you make smart plays with like eternals or perishables etc
True it is super satisfying when jimbo congratulates you
also white stake just feels so easy that there's no challenge during my runs which is what I find fun
you should give gold stake more of a shot it feels great when you get more consistent at winning runs
I’m trying to clear it on every deck
Rn
I’m doing red deck rn
My first was anaglyph
i only noticed because i was playing white stake multiplayer with a friend and it was such a different game
God dammit the blueprint is perishable
yellow and blue are my comfort picks
Worst feeling
yellow is probably my highest win rate deck
Castle joker in the big 26
