if you can keep finding nat negative jugglers then sure

pine dragon
#

Technically its ceiling is when the game crashes

#

It's just very hard to get there

lunar zealot
#

you can get pseudo hand size fairly easily with cryptid and serpent

pine dragon
#

You can also pluto stack with Perkeo instead and that's a more sustainable way to do it

lunar zealot
#

observatory doesn't count

#

that's a different thing

pine dragon
#

Requires some voucher luck tho

lunar zealot
#

In the sense that trib sock isn't observatory

#

observatory itself probably has no ceiling but it scales so slow and it lags so much

#

i kinda dgaf

pine dragon
#

It achieves the same result

fervent wolf
#

Omg hi Kami!

pine dragon
#

And it is one of 2 most sustainable ways to hit the inf

Chicot spam being another one that honestly that's even less likely to work

lunar zealot
lunar zealot
#

manacle is its doing but you still need baromi

pine dragon
#

Adds hand size permanently

But also basically eats your joker slots and makes scoring hard

#

Atleast you get good temperance value

quartz ember
#

isnt crimson bean kinda just an easier version of chicot

calm furnace

flash card with -10 dollars is the dumbest thing i've ever seen and i'm trying to be nice right now

calm furnace
lunar zealot

Nevermind carry on

pine dragon

Smh

calm furnace

pine dragon
#

Exactly

calm furnace
#

anaglyph is so funnnn

pine dragon
#

Red card is still worse

calm furnace
#

now revert the throwback nerfs 😭

pine dragon
#

Can't lie

calm furnace
#

yeah red card worst card in the game

pine dragon
#

I can't wait to spend 12 dollars in the shop to get nothing and receive 6 mult fr

mellow cypress
calm furnace
#

only meme baron good

#

i wanna break my campfire record i thought anaglyph would help with that

#

ancient gyro

Cool run lol

calm furnace
ancient gyro

yeah

calm furnace
#

how

shell dagger
#

zodiac sounds best for campfire shenanigans

calm furnace
#

anaglyph with enough luck should do it

ancient gyro
#

oh duh

calm furnace
#

if i had reroll voucher i could have gotten to like 20x

inner hollow
ancient gyro
#

sup

calm furnace

but each reroll tanked my campfire potential

inner hollow
ancient gyro

yeah

blueprint on the ante 1 shop and i couldnt afford it and i get ancient joker in the next shop oh my god

inner hollow

pine dragon
shell dagger

no it isn’t

#

copy emperor

pine dragon
#

Yup

ancient gyro
calm furnace
#

campfire needs 2 reroll voucher and thats it

shell dagger
#

you mean overstock

fervent pebble
shell dagger
#

and liquidation

ancient gyro
#

gguh

pine dragon
#

Perkeo will still inevitably end up doing more before the fire resets

calm furnace
shell dagger
#

and planet tarot merchant

pine dragon
#

You just save up a ton of emporers

inner hollow
calm furnace
#

i skipped into the hands played tag it gave me 200$ but i could only get campfire to x13

ancient gyro
#

or yk just hold every other consumable outside of emperor fool

shell dagger
#

cheating smh

calm furnace
#

the highest i ever gotten campfire was on ghost deck with two reroll vouchers overstock and liquidation

#

but i got lucky i rarely rolled into eternal jokers

#

so i was able to buy and sell every reroll

inner hollow
#

What yalls favorite deck

ancient gyro
inner hollow
#

Mines gold

shell dagger
#

this is probably my highest

ancient gyro
#

uh

shell dagger
#

and it went up mid round cos purples

pine dragon
calm furnace
ancient gyro
#

i haven't played any deck outside of black for the last few months so I'll just say black for now

inner hollow
calm furnace
#

was using blue seals for campfire tho

inner hollow
#

I got like rly good jokers when i skipped a rare blind on ante 10 or smth

#

It was fun

#

I liek

calm furnace
#

dont skip for jokers

inner hollow
pine dragon
#

I'll only do that if it's ante one and if it isn't worth I'll just reset

calm furnace
#

you skip for investment and or handy

#

but the skips change on your joker setup

inner hollow
#

egg this lowk looks like the "clock strikes 12 midnight arrives" guy😭

calm furnace
#

red card, hologram, constellation make pack skips worth a lot

steel crag
#

fellas ive been consistently going to 30 mil but i always lose at 300 mil any advice ?

pine dragon
#

If it's Anaglyph negative tag is worth

ancient gyro
#

uh

calm furnace
#

you can scale hologram like 3x easily on anaglyph

#

in one go

pine dragon
#

Depending on how many doubles you have

inner hollow
ancient gyro
#

there's like little convenience for negative skips outside of stickering and two joker speculative synergies

north smelt
#

Easy balatro win

calm furnace
ancient gyro
#

that's one of them yeah

#

i think i did that at one point

inner hollow
calm furnace
#

when i was tring to c++ i tried negative skips only to find 6 negatives that i already have stickers on

ancient gyro
#

probably

pine dragon
#

Most jokers do at least something.

Getting a free negative copy of "at least does something" is fine

#

When you're getting

#

Like 4+

raw whale
calm furnace
ancient gyro
calm furnace
inner hollow
calm furnace
#

guaranteed +3 rental or not

ancient gyro

negatives sell for 3 if they have a base price of 1

calm furnace

and use that seed

phew

calm furnace

pale wolf
tacit quail
#

i did get my 8 dollar

pale wolf
#

definitely not to win ante 8

#

lol

tacit quail
#

im sticker andy rn i love stickers

calm furnace
#

better to save money and just buy jokers without stickers before the ante 8 boss

pale wolf
ancient gyro
#

oh boy rental ice scream

calm furnace
tacit quail
#

bro NO celestiral pack has had pair in it

#

ive opened like 6

inner hollow
pale wolf
#

You can get like 2x the stickers on anaglyph if you run into the tag at the right time, and id just guess like 1.25x the stickers on average per run

ancient gyro
pale wolf
#

and I don't think anaglyph is that much worse than the other decks

pine dragon
#

Most jokers do at least something

And it's they're free that'll save you a lot of money on anything you want if it turns into negative

ancient gyro
#

anaglyph is like fine

pale wolf
inner hollow
pale wolf
#

I wouldn't do it later

#

diminishing returns

calm furnace
#

and the jokers you get

shell dagger
tacit quail
#

oh yeah baby farm that matador oh yeah

pale wolf
tacit quail
#

free 16$

pale wolf
#

In this context

pine dragon
calm furnace
tacit quail
#

wait what a pivot

ancient gyro
tacit quail
#

i have 2 eternals already

pine dragon
#

For more than that in value

calm furnace
vocal rose
calm furnace
#

but some runs the skips were game changing

vocal rose
#

but you don’t need rebate no more

tacit quail
pale wolf
#

I think anaglyph on normal gameplay I.E not stickering priorities, actually does make a lot of skip tags way more viable but its still only like twice per run

vocal rose
#

where’s ur chips

calm furnace
#

anaglyph has some nutty scnearios

ancient gyro
calm furnace
ancient gyro
tacit quail
#

rip to u i cant buy u but hello

#

hes just saying hi

calm furnace
ancient gyro
#

yeah

pale wolf
#

I think it works for the next however many shops

#

Like coupon tags

calm furnace
#

so basically like a negative chaos

pearl moss
ancient gyro
#

your next two antes will just have d6 rolls where it starts out from 0 to 1 etc

pale wolf
#

You save like 10 more dollars than chaos

pine dragon
tacit quail
#

somehow, matador returns from a judgment right before t he boss blind

calm furnace
tacit quail
#

sadly: water, he earns nothing

ancient gyro
pine dragon
#

It does silly things. I like silly things

calm furnace
#

my fav skip ever was skipping into a standard pack with hologram

pale wolf
#

negative tag is a bad one

pine dragon
#

Do I need to print 100+ dollars with investment tags? Probably not

#

But is it fun?

#

Absolutely

ancient gyro
calm furnace
#

investment tag is the best tag in the game

calm furnace
pale wolf
#

ante 1

mellow cypress
vocal rose
#

weird start

ancient gyro
mellow cypress
#

voucher tag will forever be the best tag, uncontested

pine dragon
#

Or do I need to search 5 mega arcana packs for a Soul?

Probably not

pale wolf
#

ante 8 investment tag is pretty worthless id say, and ante 3-7 arent so good either

pine dragon
#

But it's fun

calm furnace
pale wolf
#

uh

#

I doubt it

calm furnace
#

not just with anaglyph

#

i had many runs that were saved by investment tags mid game

#

money is money

pale wolf
#

yeah and you make it in blinds

#

and shops I suppose sometimes

ancient gyro
#

what use do I have with investment in late game when skipping once there increases score requirements faster than my linear joker scaling

pale wolf
#

😭

#

doomed runs

calm furnace
#

is it a doomed run if i win it?

ancient gyro
#

the if statement

pale wolf
#

I mean okay maybe investment tag gets worse when you stop putting yourself in situations where it is the only out

#

is that a better statement

calm furnace
#

its situational

#

handy is better

#

mid game

pine dragon
#

Anaglyph is peak fun either way though

calm furnace
#

because it gives you the money on skip

pine dragon
#

It's just fun to use a ridiculous amount of double tags

pale wolf
#

teraria

ancient gyro
calm furnace
#

handy on average will be around 20$ by ante 3

calm furnace
shell dagger
#

ya

#

it was the vampire start run

pale wolf
#

You lose scaling and you increase score requirements, it's a double whammy

calm furnace
#

not all setups need scaling

ancient gyro
shell dagger
#

how else do you expect to get from 300 points to 400k without scaling bruh

pine dragon
#

That's kinda why you only skip if you're basically one shotting with good head room or it's ante 1

ancient gyro
shell dagger
#

stm is scaling mult

vocal rose
#

@pine dragon

pale wolf
#

some people dont view it that way bc its roundabout

tacit quail
#

No new stickers (rerolled but only pulled gold sticker jokers) but kind of funny as hell to win with 3 joker

vocal rose
tacit quail
pale wolf
#

however I can't really think of any other builds that don't use any sort of scaling value

calm furnace
#

but even with scaling setups, sometimes money injection worth losing scaling for one round

pale wolf
#

what builds can you think of

shell dagger
#

bullstraps

ancient gyro
pale wolf
#

those are literally scaling based on your money

pale wolf
ancient gyro
#

oh wait I missed the point of the question

tacit quail
#

Oh uhh i know the builds

pale wolf
#

shoot the moon and raised fist are particularly special because you don't need to"scale" them, just fix

pine dragon
shell dagger
pale wolf
#

oh my b

tacit quail
#

i think swash and the joker for +3 per joker dont feel like scaling to me even if they are

pale wolf
tacit quail
#

they just feel like high mult quick if you fill the joker slots up

pale wolf
#

swash is bad scaling and abstract is flat mult to me

tacit quail
#

yeah

#

swash is flat if you have no way of scaling it

#

i would argue that makes egg or gift card the actual scaler

ancient gyro
#

or legendaries

calm furnace
#

gift card works better with swash

pale wolf
#

sometimes you have expensive jokers even without egg/giftcard

#

editioned rares

tacit quail
#

true but eh rarer

#

still flat within run

shell dagger
#

nah swash egg is usually better bc it doesn’t lock in your full joker setup

tacit quail
#

wheels

calm furnace
#

if swash counted itself, it would get much better with gift

pine dragon
shell dagger
#

dagger gift beats dagger egg tho

calm furnace
ancient gyro
calm furnace
#

and you can get out of gift card and keep the scaling

#

unlike egg

pale wolf
#

swash egg>swash gift> dagger gift> dagger egg>swash egg

#

That's pretty cool

calm furnace
#

egg swash is forced to waste 2 joker slots

#

swash card can get out of it

shell dagger
#

waste?

pine dragon
pale wolf
#

use

ancient gyro
#

cause dagger doubles it

shell dagger
#

swash gift is only good late if you already have xmult

pale wolf
ancient gyro
#

oh

shell dagger
#

if you’ve got random page 1s and econs then eventually ur gonna lose that scaling

mellow cypress
#

Matador work on wheel when playing the face down cards?

calm furnace
pale wolf
#

but idk

mellow cypress
#

cheers

pale wolf
#

facedown bosses dont do it

pine dragon
#

I don't think it does

#

Yeah that would make sense

#

Your hand isn't really doing that

#

The boss activated itself you didn't really make it activate

calm furnace
#

handy to keep around

#

Ox with matador is so funny

ancient gyro
ancient gyro

this is too early for bean,I could full skip though

Want that crimson bean action

pine dragon

And constantly gain and lose $8

raw whale

ladies and gentlemen
we got 'em

vocal rose
#

hmmm when should I stop scaling

ancient gyro
#

seeing duo

#

oh when

#

never

trail pier

another pretty good gold stake run

#

i got a shop 1 brainstorm and a shop 2 baron lmao

pine dragon
vocal rose
#

bruh??

raw whale
#

AND i finally aura'd a poly king

mellow cypress
trail pier
#

xd

pine dragon
#

How would they even afford shop one brainstorm anyways

trail pier
#

it was in a pack

pine dragon
#

It's 10 dollars

mellow cypress
#

you just used up the one time in history a speculative baron pays out

pine dragon
shell dagger
#

you can make it work on plasma deck

#

since early is so ez

trail pier
#

i was on ghost deck so the brainstorm was polychrome and i had green joker

shell dagger
#

oh

trail pier
#

so i just used that for score early game

pine dragon
#

I've seen shop one brainstorm but was unable to afford it (wasn't in pack)

Shoulda been playing yellow deck

raw whale
pale wolf
#

heres a bigger one that can be made into a rug if you so choose

trail pier
#

i actually didnt know the flint triggered matador

ancient gyro
#

square rugs for my rectangular office

pine dragon
#

I think flint halves it After you play it

ancient gyro
#

flint tampers with your hand scoring so it makes sense

trail pier
#

flint usually just kills my runs anyway so its not that useful xd

ancient gyro
#

o

#

real

pine dragon
#

Imagine

ancient gyro
#

flint killed me the most during my plassma epidemic

trail pier
#

well it depends on the run but i think flint is one of the most annoying bosses overall

pine dragon
#

It kills me sometimes

Especially as as a really early boss

ancient gyro
#

that's reasonable

mellow cypress
#

now we pray for bean

raw whale
#

alriiight

ancient gyro
#

eye flint wall needle water are practically universal threats

trail pier
#

the wall also sucks earlygame if you dont have your scaling full setup yet

mellow cypress
#

first roll

#

aight

pine dragon
#

Piller used to be my least favorite ante 1 till I got tired of it and just skipped right for it

vocal rose

on the LAST hand is when it flowerpot

pine dragon
vocal rose
#

every other hand was either red card or blackboard

#

I actually just got destroyed by crimson heart

#

violet vessel would’ve been easier

shell dagger
#

108 dolaz

ancient gyro
vocal rose
ancient gyro
#

also since you're mostly going to play one shot hands prior to a1 pillar, the boss won't do much to directly interfere with your card searching

vocal rose
#

also wasn’t using tarots efficiently

trail pier
#

when i get pillar ante 1 i usually try to play flushes of the same suit for the first 2 blinds

ancient gyro
#

dam

calm furnace
pine dragon
calm furnace
#

pillar is manageable just rotate suits for flushes

mellow cypress
#

wait was crimson bean patched 😭

tacit quail
#

flint is so fucking hard

ancient gyro
tacit quail
#

Wow direct upgrade free win bye banner

pine dragon
#

You can look for the same suit the prior two blinds

You're just not garunteed to find them

mellow cypress
ancient gyro
#

skipping to it isn't worth the additional risk that would be like seeing less shops and more opportunity cost by denying it for a nothing burger a1 boss

austere whale
#

What triggers matador?

pine dragon
#

You'll need about 3 5 card hands if your cards are debudded

#

Which is inconsistent

austere whale
#

Ik theres a chart but i cant fing it

ancient gyro
pine dragon
#

Optimize what you have 0-1 jokers

ancient gyro
raw whale
#

gonna save scum for fun just to keep as many negatives as possible

austere whale
#

Why doesnt hook trigger matador 😭

ancient gyro
#

don't think I've died to a1 pillar yet with zero support

tacit quail
#

campfire spam and double skip to win the a8

raw whale
#

I didn't even need to save scum lmao

#

it just copied the blueprint

ancient gyro
raw whale
#

like what

tacit quail
#

+1 gold (campfire)

#

bro earned it i was not winning

raw whale
#

the fuck

#

alright back to back invisibles i guess

austere whale
#

Does pillar trigger matador?

pine dragon
#

Yes

naive cove
#

Do seeded runs disable achievements?

vale mesa
#

yes i think

naive cove
#

Fuck

vale mesa
#

that would make them trivial?

naive cove
#

Idk how I am supposed to get this flushed achievement without a perkeo

pine dragon
#

Simply find a Perkeo

vale mesa
#

just get wild cards?

ancient gyro
#

yeah

naive cove
#

There’s no way to get enough wild cards just from arcana pack pulls

ancient gyro
#

mostly boils down to
do you have a lot of money
do you have a lot of value generators

vale mesa
#

lovers death cryptid can get you wild cards

#

and you dont need a lot

naive cove
#

You’re assuming that I’m gonna hit the wild card when I pull a spectral pack and that there’ll be a cryptid in there

#

My pack pull luck is atrocious

ancient gyro
#

almost like there are other ways to find specific enhancements

vale mesa
#

no i mean you dont need a lot of wild cards

naive cove
#

I’ll have to play fuckin ghost deck and find one in the shop

pine dragon
vale mesa
#

if you draw four wilds and are holding lovers that can also work

ancient gyro
#

generally it sounds like abandoned will be one of the better decks to search for that achievement for overall flushed

#

ghost for 3 wilds via cryptid upstairs

pine dragon
#

Wait the achievement is only 5 wild cards? Is there a stake requirement

raw whale
#

what's funny is i could realistically pivot to baron here if i really wanted to

ancient gyro
#

zodiac for shop specific consumable blocking

pine dragon
#

No stake requirement?

ancient gyro
#

nah

pine dragon
#

That's so easy-

ancient gyro
#

how long do you think it'll take

pine dragon
#

Like... A run or two

#

If you're actively trying for it

lost vault
#

balatro !

ancient gyro
#

maybe show it to that guy

#

so he doesn't feel bad

#

or help him out or something

pine dragon
#

Yeah sureee

raw whale
#

ok foil one i might actually buy just for fun

lost vault
raw whale
#

negative is exactly why i go with foil

#

look at the build

pine dragon
tacit quail
#

tryna figure out what best deck is to get all of these is. do i just keep playing pairs on ghost and see where it goes. need to finish c++ some day

raw whale
#

in fact it's actually beneficial for me to buy the baron there

pine dragon
#

Since you can do this on white stake you don't need to worry too hard about scoring though this will make bigger hands more consistent anywas

#

Since you're duplicating the same card

tacit quail
#

Yeah lol you funny

ancient gyro
#

playing like a nanlet for plasma usually works

tacit quail
#

Arcana skip a1 soul ???

#

round 0 soul

whole storm
#

tuff

tacit quail
#

trib ok gg shit run

pine dragon
#

Trib? You're set

olive basin
#

Man wanted chicot

pine dragon
#

Unless you find a plant

tacit quail
#

yeh plants gonna nuke me a7

ancient gyro
#

or a3

tacit quail
#

this is why i dont like photo or anything

pine dragon
#

Simply find the reroll voucher

olive basin
tacit quail
#

nah a3 early enough to play around

ancient gyro
#

if you like find nothing after

tacit quail
#

a7 youre on full commit

ancient gyro
#

i mean like zero flat scoring alternatives

#

sorry

raw whale
#

nah no baron value today

ancient gyro
#

black deck pilled

tacit quail
#

He thinks he wants to be in the build but I say fuck off I'll find you without rental

pine dragon
#

There's a way to beat the plant still

You need jokers that don't care about what's being scored tho

tacit quail
#

yeh true

#

but if im goin for a trib run i may aswell right

pine dragon
#

Esp since polychrome is helping out regardless

tacit quail
#

its what 20 mins waste? idk

#

idc

ancient gyro
#

20 minutes of holding r?

tacit quail
#

gonna try full commit it so i can have 2 slots open at end or smth and get stickers

surreal pier
#

Why does Ectoplasm increase the hand penalty with each subsequent use?

tacit quail
#

29k we so here

raw whale
#

also what's funny is that all negative jokers actually contribute to the score

#

in a shocking turn of events

lost vault
tacit quail
#

yeh

lost vault
#

(sell for 10 bucks trust)

pine dragon
#

Don't be dissing trib like that

tacit quail
#

yeah ok we here

lost vault
ancient gyro
#

the worst legendary is still functioning as a tier blue boy

tacit quail
#

plant nuke incoming

lost vault
#

the other legends are more consistently good

pine dragon
#

Absolutely nothing

#

For most of the game

ancient gyro
#

chicot enables higher risk builds to roam free

lost vault
#

chicot haters the same typa mfs to complain about losing to the plant

tacit quail
#

free 50$ (i missed my full house and only 2 paired)

mortal needle
#

Gotta love seeded runs mhm

ancient gyro
#

and prevents one of the major run ending roadblocks

surreal pier
#

Why does Ectoplasm increase the hand penalty with each subsequent use?

pine dragon
#

It still doesn't contribute to scoring and most boss blinds aren't doing anything at all to most buillds

pine dragon
#

So likeee

lost vault
mortal needle
surreal pier
#

Well does make sense

raw whale
#

noooo my negativessss

pine dragon
#

Yeah Chicot is still good but imo Chicot is the worst

surreal pier
pine dragon
#

Does nothing for 2/3rds of the blinds in the game

raw whale
#

uranus

mellow cypress
tacit quail
#

well actually i die to only pulling a single pairs worth of k+q in 2 discards and 3 hands

pine dragon
#

Still doesn't do much since most bosses don't matter

surreal pier
tacit quail
#

tribs ass i die ante5

mellow cypress
tacit quail
#

its photochad joker

pine dragon
raw whale
#

YOU'RE KIDDING

tacit quail
#

its literally just retrigger andys dream

surreal pier
mellow cypress
#

thats what

raw whale
#

just a reminder there were zero brainstorms thus far

surreal pier
pine dragon
mellow cypress
surreal pier
#

Just that?

mellow cypress
#

yes

tacit quail
#

does a lot

pine dragon
#

That's it yeah

raw whale
#

i actually wanna sell dusk

mellow cypress
#

if your only scoring is trib you die

pine dragon
#

Still beatable

tacit quail
#

basically turns off trib/photo/etc or any card triggers

surreal pier
#

Calling a joker bad cuz of a boss blind that countera specifically that?

ancient gyro
mellow cypress
#

trib is simply less consistent

surreal pier
#

It's like saying Bloodstone sucks cuz the head exists

pine dragon
surreal pier
#

I think it's the head

pine dragon
#

Bloodstone does suck

#

But the head isn't why

surreal pier
surreal pier
#

You get my line of thought

ancient gyro
whole storm
#

is it worth getting

pine dragon

Trib is just a good joker

For 8 antes unless you're seeing the plant exactly Ante 7 you're probably beating it easily regardless

ancient gyro
#

so individually ranking their viability would make sense

#

well

surreal pier
pine dragon
#

Yup

#

We need to rework the criteria

Who cares about disabling the boss blind if you cant score enough to beat it

Okay so Trib is fine

mellow cypress
raw whale

it hurts to see him go

hence trib

is the worst

I'm sorry, banner

#

i couldn't protect you

ancient gyro
#

scoring usually isn't one of the harder issues of winning the game, it's usually having to play around boss blinds since that doesn't come naturally

Trib is hella neat, and just like photograph, it goes crazy with retriggers

I dont think I need him right now....

We're comparing this shit to Chicot who doesn't do anything for 90% of the game and doesn't even do anything against most boss blinds because they don't do shit

if I sell luchador after chicots go off do I get ANOTHER increase when on the manacle???????

Yorick > Canio > Chicot > Perkeo >> Triboulet

#

You're still comparing this to a worse joker

#

Chicot

ancient gyro
tender quarry
#

The pivot required to make Trib consistent is too much and too unreliable, especially if it doesn’t already fit in with what is already somewhat of your gameplan (which it will almost never do)

mellow cypress
#

when are you going to realise chicot is stupidly strong

raw whale
mellow cypress

we are not talking endless

pine dragon

still no brainstorm

That's it

tender quarry

And of course it has bad boss vulnerability

He does nothing for basically 100% of the game

Chicot takes every ‘probably wins’ run into an ‘always wins’ run

what do i even do here, do i just wait for a vouher skip?

Such as the plant for a face card build, but if you're not running face cards what harm does the plant cause?

What's that mean in this context?

Best joker combo and how to use?

bosses that don't harm pairs will harm some other poker hand or specific score timing

Don't look for "the best joker combos"

surreal pier
naive cove
#

So I played a flush house with 5 wild cards and it did not give me the achievement. Apparently you can only play a flush with wilds, so making copies of wild cards doesn’t even work

pine dragon

Take what you get and run with it

surreal pier
#

T'was quite fun

mellow cypress
hardy fable
#

or high roll for me

tender quarry
#

I’m not even sure Photochad is the most common run winning combo when stuff like Green Joker + Square Joker is a thing

ancient gyro
# surreal pier Oh ic what u mean

yeah like the bosses that kill pairs don't usually kill 5 card hand builds. unfortunately there's too much overlap for bosses that can harm both builds so naturally we just focus on what pairs get hurt by the least and pretend the other bosses are a non threat when it doesn't affect the majority. if that makes any sense

I have "watched" some of his videos but just like Roffle I usually put their videos on during bedtime and I just nap

Worry about synergy when you already have jokers to use

Don't try to find specific ones

the 15 rotating one was pretty eye opening

Is this joker setup correct for red sealed kings or am I miss-counting the balancing here? I have red-sealed steel kings but I'm currently farming my gold red-sealed kings for money

I think plasma is more “difficult” than “weak”

mellow cypress
ancient gyro
# surreal pier Oh, dang

mult sources are half as useful. chip jokers are rarer to find. more bosses outright kill you (flint). x mult pivot is harder to pilot until you have 2 good ones.

Highrolling a win with plasma is easy, winning consistently with plasma is not

I WAS RIGHT

when you wanna play on it to win with more jokers in mind

oh no, a game has a progression and reward system designed to extend replay-ability and give you a sense of accomplishment? how gross

wacko

With games like this the progression isn't that fun. It's not an RPG

You don't even realize it actually

You just play and suddenly almost everything is unlocked

I still don't wanna bother with it

no ur point is you want instant gratification rather than working for something

I'm glad progression wasn't forced on me because this isn't the type of game that justifies progression to me

It is also seemingly intended as less progression, but as an expansive tutorial; you pick up the undiscovered, to learn with them

for me throwback is occasionally an extra bit of xmult if i took the investment tag ante 1 😭

mellow cypress

Throwback is mostly a consistency measure for when the only thing you really want anymore is some xMult

acoustic kettle

It can be useful if i am preserving a good perishable to the end of a run

But likw

Very very rarely

Handy is generally bad but can sometimes be justified with Throwback, so that’s a decent example

pine dragon

Usually useless

However

acoustic kettle
#

Pair runs really rarely run into any run ending boss

acoustic kettle
#

Especially like ante 7

pine dragon
#

Pair is cool unfortunately I don't have fun playing pairs

magic cosmos

If you’re ante 7 shops just have too much value (and money has relatively less in turn, even if there’s a lot of it)

mellow cypress

If it ain't fun playing

It ain't worth playing

acoustic kettle

Against handy tag giving like 40 dollars

The problem with econ tags other than investment in general is that they give you econ when you don’t really need it (that being that you already have it)
