[placid ridge]

awesome, thanks

[versed dew]

Quick question: if gros michel is destroyed by means other than that 1 in 6 will i now have a chance to get cavendish?

[wary zodiac]

the gang

[placid ridge]

according to the wiki, no.

[lunar zealot]

gros michel becomes cavendish only when it goes extinct

destruction by any other means doesn't count

[wary zodiac]

thank you polychrome riff raff for the negative todd 💜

[pearl moss]

It needs to be natural destrucyion

[versed dew]

Thanks!

[placid ridge]

nice

wish there wasn't a $40 max lol

but balance is good, so fair enough

[pale wolf]

you know what doesnt have a cap

[brittle temple]

chigoat apperance?

[brittle temple]

the goatness of chicot?

[pale wolf]

handy and garbage tags

[pearl moss]

Take it

[brittle temple]

its canio

trash

[placid ridge]

true

[civic sand]

Run so good my stats reset the second time this profile

[ember flicker]

Which joker should I keep ?
Not sure if
78 flat mult
570 scaling chips
Or 2x X mult face retrigger is better here

[civic sand]

Totally not maulding at all

[pearl moss]

Photograph relies on base mul

So how good is your planet

[placid ridge]

I guess I take D6 here. Quite a waste.

[pearl moss]

Smiley does work with photo

[pearl moss]

Three of a kind?

I think tarot joker can go

[ember flicker]

Okie what i was leaning ty ty

[pearl moss]

But that depends on what three of a kind that is

Are you 2s

Or faces?

[ember flicker]

Faces and 2 at start

[lunar zealot]

<@&1133519078540185692> crush his skull

[pearl moss]

If you're confident enough i supposed

[smoky merlin]

ok

[pearl moss]

I see this guy in another server

[placid ridge]

+4 stickers

[pearl moss]

Astounded scammera

[pale wolf]

hi vonnegoat

[smoky merlin]

hi zeb

[pale wolf]

🦓

[civic sand]

I mean obviously im fine grinding stakes again but if im going for completionist++ i might as well just stay on PC even though 99% of my hours are on phone

[pale wolf]

i mean why care about the achievement popping up or not

[pearl moss]

Gratis how many to go now

[pale wolf]

you'll know if you did it or not

[heady monolith]

I just got a funny seed

[civic sand]

The problem is my data keeps resetting on mobile for stakes and challenges specifically

[pale wolf]

oof

[heady monolith]

Early game brainstorm and stuntman on a plasma deck

[lunar zealot]

god i love bbc

[pale wolf]

well if you're more progressed on your phone anyways then you can transfer the data using Google takeout to retrieve your Google Play games data

[civic sand]

Ohh i never tried that

[pale wolf]

You can't transfer it back to your phone though

[civic sand]

The times it happened is when I minimise Balatro to send a screenshot or screen recording and sometimes it all just resets so maybe I can just stop doing that

As well

[ember flicker]

What's the best way to use 10+ double tags ?

[pearl moss]

All right no need to push it at our throat

Yes i made that joke

[last geyser]

Do I ankh the family ?

[placid ridge]

made 2 lucky cards as a hail mary to try to win the first boss blind. 2 $20 hits, no mult lmao

[last geyser]

Tragic

[pearl moss]

If you are confident in drawing four of a kind

Sure

[ember flicker]

@pearl moss
Blueprint ballot box ( hanging Chad)
Or
Photograph

[last geyser]

I’m not 😥

[last geyser]

Copy photo

[pearl moss]

No wait

Chad

4 from bp chad which equals to 4 photo triggers

[safe fractal]

Is there an actual reason why 6 of my last 7 guaranteed rare cards have been hit the road? I hate it so much and it feels like the game is just trying to piss me off

[pearl moss]

If it's bp photo

[safe fractal]

Is it weighed some how?

[pearl moss]

It would still be 2 hanging Chad but 4 trigger photo

[ember flicker]

What i was thinking but I've seen people do the opposite wanted to be sure I wasn't trolling xD

[pearl moss]

You be getting more mult on Chad because smiley

[ember flicker]

Ty ty

[pearl moss]

It's practically worth mention Chad works well with glasses

[pale wolf]

what

[pearl moss]

Mult, typo

[pale wolf]

no you 100% copy photo lol unless its chad for wee scaling

[ember flicker]

Oh oo 👀

[shell dagger]

2 more smiley isn’t worth 1 fewer photo

[pale wolf]

an extra +5 on top of 8x from 35 mult is nothing compared to another 2x

[pearl moss]

Oh right i forgot the initial face trigger

🤦‍♂️

Sorry about that

It would be 6 trigger photos

[ember flicker]

Oooo ok

Good to know

[pearl moss]

If bp on Chad would be 5

[ember flicker]

Thank you everyone that makes more sense now

[vocal trellis]

Ante 2, the order is clearly THE joker to pick here

[pearl moss]

Depends

Are you confident at making straight all the time

[vocal trellis]

Nah, imma take Blueprint and buff my mail and Rebate

[verbal oak]

A blueprint without rental/perishable is pretty enticing though

[vocal trellis]

It’s 1 lvl down from gold stake, so I don’t think I need to go high score on this run tbf

[verbal oak]

Also it's really hard to play Balatro and also be straight, so that's not going to be consistent

[warped moth]

Never before have I managed a winning 4oak cardsharp build, let alone in gold stakes. Insane stuff 😌

[vocal trellis]

Tru tru

[vocal trellis]

No Hack? 💔

[ancient gyro]

questionable obby licks run

[warped moth]

Next step is straight flush cardsharp build

[vocal trellis]

Rlly nice tho 🙏

Never actually used Obelisk, it feels so risky 💀

[warped moth]

I do not control the speed rate at which lobsters die jokers spawn 😔

[ancient gyro]

its not a majority of scenarios

[warped moth]

Cardsharp on a wee build shows how few good jokers I found

I found literally no other xmult

Had to shift from F5 to 4oak to ensure consistency

[wary zodiac]

hilarious

ggwp

[wary zodiac]

i started playing balala this year and suddenly im nonbinary

coincidence? i think not

[verbal oak]

It always happens in that order

[cloud sinew]

this is true, my nonbinary partner is actually a time traveler from the far future when balatro 2 got released

[wary zodiac]

wtf

when i play balatro 2

does the gayness cancel out

or does it double

[cloud sinew]

double

it never goes down

[wary zodiac]

instead of being masc leaning, i become true neutral and lose all testosterone

enby final boss

anyways

[warped moth]

I became bi by Celeste, personally

[wary zodiac]

credit card in the buffoon pack

[wary zodiac]

im ALSO playing celeste rn 😭

it doubles again

🥹

[warped moth]

Peak game :3

[wary zodiac]

IT ISSS

[lunar zealot]

I thought you were single

goes to show how fucking bad my gaydar is LMAO

[wary zodiac]

as a canadian, im born with a naturally perfect gaydar

[warped moth]

Fascinating ability

[shell dagger]

296

ohhh

[blissful fog]

Ggs, beaten magic deck and got 5 jokers gold stickers

[warped moth]

Well done!

[blissful fog]

Canio on ante 1 and hangedman early got me the xmult needed

[warped moth]

That's very lucky :D

Hanged men for facecard destruction?

[blissful fog]

Hang man is what I was saying

Mb

[warped moth]

Ah

[placid ridge]

ante 1? crazy

[warped moth]

Very lucky :D

[blissful fog]

Yep

3 more decks to go

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[last geyser]

75/150

50%

[warped moth]

Gn chat, here's this weird thing I found outside

[blissful fog]

Weird fluff thing

[lost vault]

hmm... delectable

[jaunty robin]

fuck you the plant

i was having such a great run

[lunar zealot]

Did you not know what 74 x 4 meant lmao

i thought it was obvious

[cloud sinew]

lol why did you think i was single

[vocal rose]

I thought you were

[shell dagger]

Counter point it’s 2:23am

[lunar zealot]

i don't even know...

[shell dagger]

Goodnight balatro

[modern panther]

Is there an instance where the mark is a detrimental boss blind?

[cloud sinew]

pareidolia, when you need to know the rank of the face card youre playing/if it's enhanced/ the suit/the chips (hiker),etc

[digital pewter]

huge W

[lunar zealot]

straights

[lost hamlet]

how long does getting c+ take compared to c? (i got c after 98h)

[lunar zealot]

completionist is not difficult

[pale wolf]

uuh thats a long time

methinks

[lost hamlet]

yea due to skill issue

[lunar zealot]

c+ is either hard if you don't play pairs or significantly less hard if you do play pairs

[lost hamlet]

i was struggling on purple stake

[lunar zealot]

but still kinda hard due to plasma/black

[lost hamlet]

i recently learned how to play pairs

[pale wolf]

c+ isnt too difficult as a long term goal

[lost hamlet]

before that i played just flushes

[pale wolf]

i mean some people do it in a streak for a challenge

🦓

[modern panther]

Just deck-fix to lower straights 5head

[lunar zealot]

we joke but it's not like i disagree

[lost vault]

when you have face cards

the mark might lowkirkenuinely be more dangerous then the plant on average

assuming u dont save scum

[lunar zealot]

Never say that word again

[modern panther]

So the Mark is dangerous Ante 2?

[lost vault]

sure

[lost vault]

why

[pale wolf]

what does it mean

[lost vault]

savescum?

[pale wolf]

no

[lost vault]

then what

which word is so horrendous that i mustn't use ot

[lost vault]

..... plant?

[pale wolf]

you're being stupid on purpose now

[lost vault]

maybe

[pale wolf]

🖕

[lost vault]

:3

i will not stop using lowkirkenuinely

thank you

[pale wolf]

what does it mean

[lost vault]

lowkey + on kirk + genuinely

[pale wolf]

yea you can get fucked

zapped

[lost vault]

agreed

[warm jasper]

What’s wrong with lowkirkenuinely

[safe moat]

Woah woah woah woah!

What’s with the hostility brochachos

[true wagon]

Most jokers I've ever had

[median gust]

That’s very impressive dude wow

[safe moat]

Puny

[jade shell]

That was cool

[bleak blaze]

Seltzer my beloved

[digital topaz]

very random question but does anyone have an image of hermit in shop for 3 dollars?

[lucid scaffold]

i am so mad

[shell field]

yippee

[bold pelican]

hi, first time here and probably been asked before but,

do you prefer to get all stickers on one deck before moving on to the next, or one sticker on all decks before next sticker?

[acoustic kettle]

Depends on the player

I do decks untik gold first before moving on

[bold pelican]

i got up to blue stake on red deck, but go stuck so i started the other way. currently have white on all and red up to black deck. im just working my way through but wanted to see what everyone else thought

[pale sluice]

tf you mean song?

[lost vault]

me when i see a wee joker in my buffoon pack

[acoustic kettle]

Play how you want

Nothing wrong with that

[errant brook]

Is Cryptid the same mod that gives you the QOL stuff like faster speeds and finding certain seeds and all that jazz or is that a different mod?

[dawn sedge]

67 !!!

[celest jetty]

I misread the question at first, but I do the decks first because of the unlock conditions of some decks being to complete the higher stakes

[bold pelican]

yknow thats the only right answer, thanks :)

[left juniper]

Cryptid is the one that absolutely destroys the game. I think Handy and Saturn are the mods you're after. #⚙・modding-general can probs help

[errant brook]

I figured that was the case, thank you

[safe moat]

Can you just find one?

[worthy yarrow]

oh come on....

[pearl moss]

Shouldn't have relied on 4 of a kind early game

[digital topaz]

after 15 minutes of playing i realised i could just look up balatro shop and easily find it there

[safe moat]

Bro

You suck

[lunar zealot]

who takes family on ante 2 on an unfixed deck

you need +mult not xmult

[lost vault]

oh my goodness chill out yall

[worthy yarrow]

it was a wraith rando...

[icy nest]

i don't like some spectral carts

thesse are 50-50

them are not bad but them are not good

the secundary effect does than them are not broken

[azure ginkgo]

Gotta love a nice gold sticker farm run. very glad to get sixth sense, glass, and marble jokers out of the way

[manic zealot]

frfr

[azure ginkgo]

ooo broke 1k total sticker tiers this run too, gettin closer

[signal frigate]

No, that's Talisman and Brainstorm

Talisman skips the scoring animations for you and Brainstorm let's you find a specific seed

[icy nest]

I am the most pro in all the Balatros' time 😎:

[signal frigate]

I didn't think of getting ALL stickers in the game

That sounds more painful than C++

[azure ginkgo]

That's what C++ is, if you get a gold sticker it gives you all previous stickers for the joker too. im not THAT crazy lmao

[azure ginkgo]

You'll get there one day Pedro o7

[signal frigate]

Oh, I actually didn't know that < guy who C++'d the game 3 times btw

[azure ginkgo]

it'd look so awful to get C++ and then have like... 35% of joker stickers collected LMAO

[shell rock]

anyone know the stakes from cryptid

they have like 30

[signal frigate]

I only know the last one

It's almost impossible to beat it

[shell rock]

should i get c++ on cryptid

by beating ascendant stake with every single joker?

[signal frigate]

Good luck, that's probably not gonna happen

[shell rock]

-# surely this is a good use of my time

[azure ginkgo]

jeez cryptid sounds miserable looking at a list of what each of the stakes do

[shell rock]

i don't even know what all of the effects in ascendant stake are lol

[azure ginkgo]

all of that plus gold stake O.o genuinely sounds horrible

[shell rock]

that is malicious

no way in hell anyone is beating that

without a really good seed or smth

[azure ginkgo]

idk why you'd even want to, it sounds like genuinely high degrees of masochistic tendancies are necessary to even want to try it lol

[visual turtle]

i feel like glass & twilight are redundant

and yellow stake implies eternal consumables

[azure ginkgo]

what you don't like "chance to destroy card" and "chance to destroy card" stacking?

Also checking the wiki eternal consumables are apparently a thing, you can use but cant sell

[formal shadow]

credit card in buffoon?

[azure ginkgo]

credit card in buffoon wraith and immolate in spectral

[formal shadow]

too poor for spectral

and no credit card

[compact gazelle]

polychrome joker that sells for 6 dollars then immolate in pack

[formal shadow]

i cry now

[terse vale]

I hope not

I hope u get like

mystic mountain

[wintry ice]

how would you feasably beat this outside of yellow or some broken deck from the mod

[azure ginkgo]

i can not possibly imagine you would without ridiculous mod shenanigans or like, getting 5 copies of photochad and never finding a plant xd

[compact gazelle]

the broken jokers from the mod

[visual turtle]

so
you can't use the consumable again after you used it

[wintry ice]

i know the jokers from the mod are busted but how are you atleast supposed to buy one with all that

[azure ginkgo]

without any familiarity to the mod, it sounds like the only difference is you cant sell them

[compact gazelle]

struggle :3

ive only ever played cryptid to mess around with comparing build acceleration

so i wouldnt know about actually winning high stake runs
except on ccd deck

[faint linden]

Use Antimatter Deck

[visual turtle]

I need a deck challenge
where you score negative chips 😌

[placid ridge]

cursed run lmao

[azure ginkgo]

sounds like it would fall under ridiculous mod shenanigans without knowing what that deck does :P

[pearl moss]

This look like it was design by a masochist

[faint linden]

Applies the upsides of almost every other deck

[azure ginkgo]

their slogan should be "Cryptid, by sadists, for masochists"

[manic zealot]

you can't go wrong with constellation

[azure ginkgo]

constellations goated agreed

[manic zealot]

also drunkard is underrated as hell

[wintry ice]

honestly true

[azure ginkgo]

why play without stickers :(

[manic zealot]

because I have them all

[azure ginkgo]

but they look so plain

[manic zealot]

I enjoy having them off as a reminder that i don't have to fish for them any longer

[potent tree]

is it bad if i say hit the road is best on erratic

[azure ginkgo]

fair fair

[manic zealot]

honestly no

it can be pretty good there

[feral matrix]

let it ride

[potent tree]

i cleared most of the higher stakes on erratic with htr at least 3 or 4 antes

granted i had blueprint copying

[feral matrix]

now that i think of it, if i opened the Arcana first i could make a double trib

neg trib

pulled a good one ig

[potent tree]

well, actually it would be bad assuming you ecto'd trib

you want to play fullhouse/5oak/flushhouse/flush5 with kings/queens

and 1 less handsize can hurt unless you deckfix like hell

[feral matrix]

well yea

but

[compact gazelle]

also, trio > triboulet
genuinely

[feral matrix]

i'm going on painted

soooooo

painted w that +2 hand size

the -1 ain't allat tbh

[wintry ice]

oh ecto is good there

[potent tree]

ah true

[compact gazelle]

ecto on painted op

[potent tree]

yeah that's valid then

[feral matrix]

can i say that i pulled a goated seed maybe

this is ante 2

[potent tree]

find an invis and you can...just make sure to sell one of the trios

preferably the non negative one.

[feral matrix]

well technicaly i got trib on first shop post ante 1 boss

[compact gazelle]

keep both trios and build all in on 3oak

[potent tree]

if the invis copies the other trio so be it

[feral matrix]

let it ride

[compact gazelle]

if invis shows sell trib :3

[potent tree]

but if invis copies trib then free temperance value...

[compact gazelle]

screw temperance value
all or nothing on 3

[feral matrix]

when i lose i'll share the seed, really interesting to experiment

[potent tree]

most invis i've found in a run is 3 i think

[feral matrix]

lovely full house

[potent tree]

can't spell triboulet without trio

🅱️

[feral matrix]

i mean ur right on that tho

[potent tree]

sad that people say it's the worst legendary tho

understandable, but sad

just because it only acts on 2 ranks

[feral matrix]

in my days they said Chicot was the worst...

[blissful fog]

E11 but got planted

[potent tree]

chicken strips was my last legendary to gold sticker this time

first save i think it was perkeo

[feral matrix]

ecto debuff now it's non existent

[formal shadow]

photo or fib.... or both...

[blissful fog]

Photo

Save that money for chad

[potent tree]

if you have scholar take fib

you're likely deckfixing around aces

make some glass aces, get a glass joker for free xmult

[feral matrix]

alright-y...

[blissful fog]

Free win right there

[potent tree]

free ante 14 potentially?

[feral matrix]

full house lv 4 w a +20 from lucky, not bad for almost nothing on me

[signal frigate]

With a Trib, he can barely scratch 18

If he has the right setup by then

[potent tree]

i got to ante 15 one time but that was double photochad

and constellation somehow

sock is better than chad if you play with trib

[signal frigate]

Obviously, all cards get scored with Trib

[feral matrix]

imagine if.. eternal trib..

[signal frigate]

You can go mega risk and just sell everything for that

But I wouldn't recommend it unless you're an absolute Psycho

[potent tree]

i'd skip this pack

[feral matrix]

oh hell naw

[potent tree]

now if that was an ankh...

then you'd sell everything but trib.

[signal frigate]

I don't think so

Everything he has right now is a good countermeasure for the plant

[potent tree]

if he's bought director's cut

the plant can eat it

[signal frigate]

He doesn't need it, he has double trio and a chad

[potent tree]

[signal frigate]

He can build around that when the plant comes

[feral matrix]

double +20 this time

[stiff ore]

should i take an eternal stencil?

[feral matrix]

painted deck ain't shit now

[formal shadow]

do i pick up burnt rn?

kinda doubt it cuz 7/8 not planning on endless

[feral matrix]

5oak w a steel card gives 3,9m

i'll need so many level ups

[silent quiver]

If ur scoring fone there is no need

[clever ingot]

I struggled a bit

[feral matrix]

w smiley now 5oak and a +20 from lucky card now it gives 9,1m

w build chat @potent tree

[potent tree]

put smiley before photo

[feral matrix]

u yea mb

[potent tree]

that way you maximize your mult.

but otherwise yes w setup

now if you find a blueprint ditch smiley

or a brainstorm for that matter.

because you have no +mult in your joker lineup you can arrange in any fashion

just make sure the copy is on trib

[feral matrix]

my 344hrs on this lovely game ain't for nothin!! (a month non stop was almost the 90% of this playtime)

any guesses

[potent tree]

10m

[feral matrix]

🫡

[potent tree]

it's gonna be higher than 10m but i lack brainpower rn

and/or i cba to pull up balatrolator.

[feral matrix]

3 +20s lol

[potent tree]

100m yeesh.

[feral matrix]

lucky ass run

[potent tree]

also if you get a lot of lucky cards consider ditching a trio for lucky cat

[neat ore]

Always take the negative guys

[feral matrix]

the hell is balatrolator (ive been gone for months)

[feral matrix]

sadly got like 4 of em

[potent tree]

an online calculator that allows you to calculate your hand's potential score

[feral matrix]

waos..

[potent tree]

you can input jokers, cards played, planet levels, etc

[feral matrix]

i like it

the equivalent of underframe (warframe build stats calculator) for balatro

[potent tree]

i've heard warframe is a decent game

i know balatro crossed over with it in friends of jimbo

[manic zealot]

I think this was the closest I came to losing a gold stake run that I still won

the eye was very mean to me

[potent tree]

burglar can do that to you.

[manic zealot]

it was before I picked up blueprint and burglar

[potent tree]

what's your vamp at

oh...

[manic zealot]

x2.8

the mvp for me was the rocket, i got it ante 1

I had a polychrome jimbo for a while too

[potent tree]

should gold stickered jimbo

[feral matrix]

yea, sadly on warframe there's zero balatro references (but Ben Starr plays a character!)

warframe my goat in terms of f2p

[potent tree]

i feel an urge to buy the calendar...

[manic zealot]

me too lol

[feral matrix]

so true

latam with the delivery fees making everything like 200 dollars

when the pre order of the playable deck came out, for the delivery it was like 135 usd 😭

[potent tree]

huh?? the calendar is 10 percent of that 😭

[feral matrix]

I KNOWWW

but as fangamer said

[potent tree]

i wish real life money didn't exist and we all made transactions in balatro money

[feral matrix]

we cant deliver our products free out of these places bla bla

at the time i was like

omg affordable prices for merch of my autistic obssesion from the last year

delivery: +120 usd

[potent tree]

honestly with the hours i get now i should be spending more of my money

i rarely buy things for myself other than the occasional meal

[feral matrix]

i do the same lol

[potent tree]

the only major expenses i pay are college tuition

[feral matrix]

tbh this year i start my "superior studies" but i gained the.. uhh gratuity idk how to call it in english lol

for now no major expenses

mostly i spend money on my gf

eat, gifts and allat

[wintry ice]

i still need to get an internship

idk where to start

[potent tree]

it's as simple as looking on google. you don't even have to make accounts on linkedin or ziprecruiter, search engines get the job done just as reliably

i've been looking for 2 years and no luck but i'm sure you'll fare much better assuming your field isn't as as mine

oh it's a new day.

[feral matrix]

yippie

[feral matrix]

ik this is game disc and that but what ya studying?

got like 5 lucky cards but i'm betting on the cat

[wintry ice]

i'm a CS major in a countryside city

[potent tree]

i graduated last month with a bachelor's of science in cybersecurity (but i am not a scholar)

[potent tree]

honestly i feel CS is better to find jobs in than cyber.

[potent tree]

with chad you'll get a lot of triggers, easy scaling

just 12 triggers and you match a trio

be sure to reroll and pick up any magicians you see

[feral matrix]

ooh, cool! gf's mom studying that now lol

she asked me for any games that are "realistic" on hacking yesterday

[potent tree]

damn bro got a gf? i wish i did

[feral matrix]

yea, one year, 4 months and counting

[potent tree]

yeah games on hacking are pretty hard to define. the closest thing to a game is performing capture the flag exercises on publicly available boxes (systems)

[feral matrix]

she got me a blueprint pin last year, i love it

[potent tree]

automatically win

[feral matrix]

i find even harder to find any game that has a correct translation to spanish, her english isn't so good 😭

[potent tree]

also i've seen people talk about way different things here so you're good lol

[wintry ice]

i feel like doing an electrical or mechanical engineering major on my state's capital next

because like

my cs course is pretty much already done

[feral matrix]

cool lol, i've got that thing on the back of my head telling me that "complain about this coming soon" happened so many times nin other servers

[feral matrix]

if you got a positive thought about it, go for it!

[tidal pagoda]

What do I DO!!!!!

please I beg

[potent tree]

wouldn't you be better off copying trib twice and sock once?

or if you ditch showman and pick up the sock, copy trib all 3 times

[tidal pagoda]

I ahve lucky kings with read seals

I was getting money triggers

[potent tree]

ah fair

a shame wheel hit holo on trib

if it was poly would've been far better

[tidal pagoda]

but I am talking about the sock in the store

idk if I should buy it

[potent tree]

yeah ik. it's up to you

you could wait for a spectral pack with ecto perhaps

[tidal pagoda]

mmm

[potent tree]

how much are you scoring per hand rn

[tidal pagoda]

around like e30

[feral matrix]

must.. resist..

[tidal pagoda]

this is blind rn

[potent tree]

yeah you can survive easily

if you get e30

i'd say hold off on the sock

[tidal pagoda]

okie

[potent tree]

just wait for an ecto

then you can pick up something freely

[feral matrix]

having a cat is so funny, just ended the blind, i look to my down right and i see my cat sitting there for no reason at all

[feral matrix]

checkered deck, bloodstone and oops all 6's and you're ready to go

[serene forge]

no

[quartz ember]

the head:

[feral matrix]

:(

[feral matrix]

well yea..

[lost vault]

the head is only good when im giving it

what?

did anyone else hear that

[lost vault]

what even is your build

[potent tree]

damn no palette yet? that would be a cherry on top

[feral matrix]

sobbing rn pure luck

[feral matrix]

looking for it

[potent tree]

ok so that's with a single hand. you won't be able to oneshot the ante 12 boss i think

unless you switch to 5oak

[lost vault]

gang how are you scoring less with triboulet than this simple mime build

[potent tree]

ante 13 you might struggle with. better find a copy joker soon

[potent tree]

didn't you say you didn't want to become a nanlet

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[lost vault]

this was my deck

[potent tree]

ok you are capable of oneshotting the ante 12 boss.

[potent tree]

damn no smeared??

[feral matrix]

2am balatro hits different

[lost vault]

i didnt need flushes

so

[potent tree]

not even flush5?

[lost vault]

4oak was way higher

[potent tree]

i guess that's fair.

x12 campfire wow

[lost vault]

:3

[potent tree]

unfortunately it wasn't disabled.

if CH disables campfire and you win same round you can keep scaling next ante

[lost vault]

if it was i couldve played a hand

oh

didnt know :3

[lost vault]

well i didnt play the next ante anywau

so

[potent tree]

skill issue

[lost vault]

?

[potent tree]

i mean...i don't really go past ante 8 myself unless it's a build that scores a few mil a hand

which most of the time is photochad based...

[lost vault]

i almost never go past ante 8

[potent tree]

yeah it's pretty obvious here

[lost vault]

i already have petroglyph so like

why should it

i

[potent tree]

additional madness scaling if you get a run like that? idk

remember 2 madness at x10 = x100 mult, copy it twice for x10k

[lost vault]

???

[potent tree]

oh wait that's green stake. you can't get eternal.

[lost vault]

regardless like

??

what are you talking about

[potent tree]

idk honestly i need to go to bed

[lost vault]

how would going further into endless help madness

[minor portal]

just be saying whatever at this point

[potent tree]

it's 12:30 and i'm tired

[minor portal]

Did you know splash was good because you can score cards

[lost vault]

??????

[minor portal]

It helps with things like

scoring cards

[lost vault]

what.. the guck...

[wintry ice]

did you know that
core card

[feral matrix]

gg, good run

[minor portal]

those who score

[feral matrix]

2:29 am here, going to bed rn

[lunar zealot]

[lost vault]

did you know that

[potent tree]

smeared joker
troubadour
raised fist
ancient joker
(the) idol
grimbo
hanging chad
triboulet

yes i picked grimbo in a flush house build

deal with it

[lost vault]

ok

[minor portal]

flush house

Implying that the idol isn't going to be working at max capacity

[green apex]

best shop ever

[potent tree]

yeah that's true...but flush 5 ain't easy with both kings and queens

13 new boss blinds disabling 1 rank each

should be in 1.1

[green apex]

wow

it is

[lost vault]

:3

[feral matrix]

not a shop, splendid

[lost vault]

the buffoon pack was in a shop

where else would it be

[potent tree]

skip tag

although that's a mega buffoon pack

[stark karma]

I think this one might be divisive

[lost vault]

buffoon skip gives a mega

[potent tree]

but close enough

[lost vault]

yeah

no not close enough

[potent tree]

who is roland

[stark karma]

my legendary joker idea

[potent tree]

is he based off a joker of fiction or reality?

[stark karma]

reality

[lost vault]

not very good for a legendary ngl

[stark karma]

Roland the Farter

[lost vault]

hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby

[feral matrix]

gn balatro chat

[stark karma]

considering it pretty much doubles your discards and hands I would say it's pretty damn good

[hidden birch]

😶

[lost vault]

eh

[feral matrix]

it was fun chatting with ya azure :D

[lost vault]

does it really though

i guess playing purple seals wpuld be nice

[potent tree]

yes definitely. sleep well

i'll be heading to bed myself soon

[stark karma]

burnt + space joker

so much you can do

[lost vault]

it wouldnt change burnt

?

[hollow birch]

Is invisible joker's roll on which card it duplicates based off a random joker position? or...

[lost vault]

not much anyway

[stark karma]

rebate cards while playing them

[feral matrix]

you too buddy, hugs from here to ya!

[potent tree]

it's randomized but if you sell the joker it would have duplicated it picks a new one

[lost vault]

okay so what if

hear me out

[cyan sparrow]

there should be a Dad Joker

[lost vault]

i dont have any discard effects

would be pretty shit then wouldnt it

[stark karma]

your discards will score points

[minor portal]

There is one, but it left for a diet cola.

[lost vault]

not very many usually

[potent tree]

seltzer*

[hidden birch]

Yall

[stark karma]

your discards will benefit from literally any play hand effects

[lost vault]

ynless im doing pairs

but we dont need more pairslop

[minor portal]

carbonated water

[stark karma]

gold seals, business card whatever

[hidden birch]

What does invisible do if I have max joker

[potent tree]

you lose a joker slot

you get 6/5

[stark karma]

slot overflow

[twilit hedge]

Speculaitve Round 1 Dice or Supernova for $5 if I sell dice, call it

[potent tree]

so joker stencil is set to 0x mult

[stark karma]

try to carry it the whole run my goat

[lost vault]

the only meaningful effect of overloading slots is that it stops you from taking negatives

[hidden birch]

Damn

[stark karma]

also you need to sell two jokers to pick up one

one regular non negative'

[twilit hedge]

Call it

[lost vault]

sell oops

[twilit hedge]

I get the sensible option

[minor portal]

Speculative Hallucination is just around the corner

[lost vault]

true reue

[weak relic]

Game just gave me a free win, wth

[twilit hedge]

Spamming two pair because chips and painted deck

[twilit hedge]

No hallucination 👅

[minor portal]

You have yet to get around the corner

[potent tree]

15 minute city my belovd

[hidden birch]

Damn

[twilit hedge]

Square Joker

and im playing two pair, lvl 1 on arm when I leveled pair preemptively

Who needs tarots when I need scaling in score

[tidal pagoda]

Do I sell showman for the sock?

[twilit hedge]

Absolutely

Thats more retriggers and increases your score by a metric ton

[tidal pagoda]

waht would the coppy scheme be?>

all trib?

[twilit hedge]

No

Thats 4x2 triggers and scoring,

what you have in that screenshot is perfect, just put Sock next to the other one

[tidal pagoda]

okay

[twilit hedge]

Thats 4 Retriggers with Brainstorm, and 3 Scoring with Blueprint, if you put all on Trib it would be 5x1 which is less than the now current 4x3

Does that make sense?

[tidal pagoda]

Ah, I see

[twilit hedge]

And keep that negative if you haven't passed Leaf yet

[tidal pagoda]

ye, thats what I was planning it for

[twilit hedge]

Smart one :)

That looks like a killer run, keep it up

[tidal pagoda]

my first killer run

[twilit hedge]

Thats WAY farther than me, my best is ante 16 and I did that on painted with polychrome 2's, Idol, Blueprint and Brainstorm with a beefed up negative cat

[tidal pagoda]

dang

my previous best was ante 14 with a baron build

[twilit hedge]

SOMEHOW FARTHER THAN MY FLUSHHOUSE TRIB BUILD

anyway

[tidal pagoda]

okay, shit just got real

do I take it

[twilit hedge]

You need room for another showman/any other joker, and you'd still have 5 cards to play, I'd take the risk

One joker slot and finding another scoring/retrigger joker would be IMMENSE

Dusk is also an option if you can find it

[pearl moss]

3 new gold sticker

[lost vault]

if it doesnt kill you maybe sell buskin idk

[pearl moss]

finally those first 3 are done

now a 12 more to go

[twilit hedge]

Swashbuckler gold sticker is phenomenal

[sly bolt]

hello! I'm just curious about this detail in the game. What makes x-2-5 glue gunner able to pop bloons?

[pearl moss]

Swash and gift card is goated

[signal frigate]

You only need five cards

Once you've fixed your deck enough, it won't matter

So yeah, you could take it

[twilit hedge]

SYNERGYYY

Does Matador trigger on Serpent?

[signal frigate]

No.

[twilit hedge]

WHY.

[signal frigate]

Matador's a weirdo

[twilit hedge]

That answers my previous question

[signal frigate]

That's why Thunk is tryna rework him

[signal frigate]

What's that?

[twilit hedge]

this

[pearl moss]

first page done

[signal frigate]

I thought you had another question

[pearl moss]

these are bad to take but at least i am done gold sticker these things

[twilit hedge]

It answered my main question, I worded that weird

Im sorry

I had a LONG day

[pearl moss]

10 left to go

[twilit hedge]

I got a crafty joker gold stickered because I had a negative+eternal one

[weak relic]

Kill Baron

[hidden birch]

I'm on another run 🙃

[weak relic]

Plant go bye bye now

[tidal pagoda]

faulty showman ended my run gg

[twilit hedge]

NAAAAWR

[naive galleon]

ante 22?

[tidal pagoda]

yep, my best run ever anmd probably for a long ahh time

but it was on blue stake

dont have a golden one yet

[naive galleon]

ughhhh now i'm at the point where just sending it in anaglyph isn't good enough and i actually need to hunt for jokers

[tidal pagoda]

the true grind

[frozen swan]

guys

[tidal pagoda]

No. Way.

god pack

[frozen swan]

yea

between blueprint and brainstorm is there one which would be better to pick in this case?

[tidal pagoda]

both eternal is laughable

blueprint more flaxablke

[frozen swan]

I got rid of the middle joker

idk the name of it in english

[tidal pagoda]

I dont either

[frozen swan]

just won in the black chip difficulty

[tidal pagoda]

lets go

onto blue stake

-1 discard

obviously after run is done

gotta let it ride

[torpid bridge]

It is summit

[frozen swan]

I forgot to move the blueprint in the next blind

when I took this print

I beated it in 1 hand still

and now that I moved it I got 3 million

is it worth it?

[torpid bridge]

Nope

[frozen swan]

600.000.000

yeah

it's over

[lunar zealot]

good lord ante 12 is larger than i remember

[naive galleon]

this is black stake

[quartz hinge]

yeah... does anyone else feel like the postgame after ante 11 scales way too fast? Baron/steelcard spam becomes basically the only viable strategy and decks that low diff ante 10 and 11 have no chance at 12 and 13

[lunar zealot]

endless mode isn't intended to be balanced

90% of builds die ante 12

the remaining 5% die to ante 13

this is normal

[quartz hinge]

yeah it's just not fun

[lunar zealot]

play the base game then

[quartz hinge]

goes from "lets see how far I can take this deck" to "ok well my decks OP but its not a viable endless build so time for new game"

[lunar zealot]

balatro isn't really the kind of game to have a well thought out endless mode

[frozen swan]

now I'm experiencing this live

[frozen swan]

steelcards have been saving me in some blinds ngl

this might be my best hand in the whole run

[quartz hinge]

yeah steelcard runs the strongest in the game, easily. I made it to ante 13 on a run and I never even managed to find a baron, was just coasting off the red seal steel mults

[frozen swan]

didn't get +20 mult from any of these cards

lol

[torpid bridge]

Actually you can play glass to extend the run

[frozen swan]

if it wasn't for the 7 of diamonds I would have another chance at getting the best hand of the run...

gg

[nova elk]

What do I do here?

[torpid bridge]

Yorick sucks after ante 12

Actually after ante 10

[frozen swan]

the amount of times to discart gets lower no?

[torpid bridge]

No

[frozen swan]

I mean

[torpid bridge]

It doesnt scale fast enough to compete with blinds

[frozen swan]

oh

ok

fair

[torpid bridge]

Every scaling jokers are like that ngl

[pearl moss]

2 new gold sticker

matador and faceless

[quartz hinge]

glass cards are clutch in the postgame yea

[frozen swan]

I thought this because the amount of times (at least for me in this run) I would get a king red seal luck card would be higher throughout the time

[pearl moss]

8 more to go

lets go

[quartz hinge]

glass card + hanging chad clutches

[gloomy swallow]

goofy run lmfao

[placid ridge]

really good round 2 with my perishable midas mask

[nova elk]

?

[torpid bridge]

Not really

Even if you discard your full hand yorick still scales too slowly compared to blinds

[placid ridge]

what are your plans? I would sell showman for sock and buskin.

[torpid bridge]

In this game there are types of jokers that

Scale consistently but slowly

These are the best to beat base games

[frozen swan]

hmm

[torpid bridge]

And the rest are jokers scale exponentially

Like baron

Or idols

Photochad

[frozen swan]

good to know

at least now I have this

[torpid bridge]

Thats why you find baron so good at late antes

Cuz it scales exponentially

[nova elk]

To win the run so I won’t be afraid losing

[placid ridge]

gotcha. I think unless you have a really good joker you want more of, showman isn't worth it. Especially for new players.

[frozen swan]

plus blue stake

[torpid bridge]

My fav deck

Its satisfying to skip for negative tags on this deck

[placid ridge]

green joker is good, especially if you get it early in the game. But here maybe it's a little late for it. Maybe not though.

[frozen swan]

interesting

now I gtg

[placid ridge]

that's what I'm doing right now. For gold stakes stickers.

[frozen swan]

thanks for the tips guys!

[nova elk]

Looking for blueprint

[torpid bridge]

Look at the negative

😭

[frozen swan]

oh wow

[pearl moss]

That's a disgusting amount of negatives

[torpid bridge]

Frfr

[pearl moss]

I need it for my gold sticke

[torpid bridge]

Its just so satisfying

[pearl moss]

I only have 8 more to go

[torpid bridge]

Yeah

[placid ridge]

Okay. If you get a rare joker other than blueprint, having showman will actually decrease your chances of finding blueprint since you could encounter a duplicate of a rare you have.

[torpid bridge]

This deck is the best for that strat

[placid ridge]

but if you want to get multiple copies of blueprint, fair enough.

[pearl moss]

Yeah but you don't get lucky enough

[nova elk]

Ohh , didn’t know that, thanks

[torpid bridge]

Just play many runs

[placid ridge]

But you're playing red stakes so you don't need multiple copies of blueprint.

[torpid bridge]

You will have a good run eventually

When it hits

It hits hard

[pearl moss]

The question is whether it hit the joker i want

And only 8 more, i think i will take my chance with yellow or ghost

[placid ridge]

yeah, a joker has an assigned rarity. If you have a rare joker, that joker is no longer in the rare pool, thereby increasing chances of any other specific rare. However, if you have showman, that joker is not removed from the pool.

showman can be nice for specific plans, but in general I don't take it.

[torpid bridge]

Has anyone tried ouija

Irl

Not balatro

[placid ridge]

messing with a ouija board?

[torpid bridge]

Yeah

Kinda

The thing like

You have a board of letters

[placid ridge]

right

[torpid bridge]

You ask the ghosts questions

And the letters pointed by ghosts form the answers

I wonder is oujia a real thing

Does it work

[placid ridge]

I think you'll get some very different answers to that question

My personal belief would be that it does not work.

[torpid bridge]

Me too

But ive never tried

So i wanna know if anyone has tried it and did it work

[pearl moss]

They are fake news

Not gonna delve more to that

[lost vault]

no

[heavy heron]

BRO

[merry crag]

Is there a joker which scales $ except the bull?

[heavy heron]

I KNOW IT DOESNT LOOK LIKE IT BUT I WAS ACTUALLYFIGHTING
FOR MY ENTIRE LIFE THIS RUN

i’ve never in my life been saved by a baron before

ever

LOOLLLL

@glad bronze good news

we got the proof

(hj)

i took the troubadour first if you can believe that

[blissful fog]

Bootstrap

[heavy heron]

maybe handicapping to 3 hands right away wasn’t smart

[blissful fog]

Black deck kinda shit

[heavy heron]

not kinda

it is

[merry crag]

Oh true

I forgot that card

Thanks

[merry crag]

It has potential tbh
Early game is quite painful

[torpid bridge]

Bootstraps

[blissful fog]

That's gonna be my last deck I'm gonna complete

Cuz I'm scared to suffer on higher stakes

[torpid bridge]

Ngl black deck was my first ever deck

😂

It was hell

[merry crag]

Well I got quite lucky but it was fun

My black deck run

[granite sandal]

least fun trib run:

[solemn sonnet]

i have no idea how i won this but merry andy carried (i had to sell merry andy because verdant leaf)

anyway time to go red stake now

since I've never actually played zodiac deck

[rich mauve]

funnily enough, the hardest was red stake for me

[knotty echo]

mult up

[still geyser]

truly blessed

TRULY BLESSED RUN

[weak relic]

How interesting...

[weak relic]

[hardy fable]

you don't have a single joker that scores on cards why would you need to sell

[merry crag]

Please bring me a 🔫

[weak relic]

Lol

I thought Double or nothing would be such a pain to beat

Maybe I just got lucky with my jokers

Especially

[merry crag]

Nearly first tried yellow
Also my st*pid 🍑 forgot I had the tarot card wich makes 2 cards multi wich I would've beaten the boss blind 💀

[oblique matrix]

4 fingers

[weak relic]

[rich mauve]

omg it's lilith

also brainstorm

[weak relic]

You also know NONAND?

Hell yeah

[median gust]

Nice to find a brainstorm. I usually make a winning hand with that card once all my cards are the same type

[weak relic]

Okay...

[solemn sonnet]

pal i need the +20 chips from my jack of spades

tryst me it made a difference

• i sold merry andy after using all my discards anyway so

[weak relic]

[tepid skiff]

pov: to do list misses

[exotic orchid]

Is he nutting or something.

[tepid skiff]

LMAO

[sly bolt]

hello chat I'm pretty new to the game, how do I unlock the scribbled joker?

[heady narwhal]

discard a royal flush

[sly bolt]

that sounds hard :<

[spiral cairn]

Day 1 of
Balatro? more like balls

[torpid bridge]

Havent you got c++ or something?

Why are you new?

[sly bolt]

I'm not just new

I'm pretty new

[torpid bridge]

Your name is misleading

Btw if you want to do it quickly play checkered deck

You can also get suit changing tarots to turn your deck into one suit

[sly bolt]

:3

[rugged umbra]

[sly bolt]

I love you Agnes Tachyon

[torpid bridge]

What is the :3 icon

I hate that icon

Colon 3

[sly bolt]

:<

[sly bolt]

that's me!!!

[torpid bridge]

So your c++ is that c++?

Im also learning c++

:3

[shell dagger]

im learning matlab

[sly bolt]

I haven't studied much C++ tho

[rugged umbra]

im learning
how to love

[torpid bridge]

Who uses matlab nowadays tho

[sly bolt]

I love Teto

I wanna sniff her hair

[torpid bridge]

Python can substitute mathlabs

[shell dagger]

outdated uni profs

[torpid bridge]

Mathlab compiler is paywalled
