bye chat

[torpid bridge]

Scikit learn can do all the thing that matlab does

[rich mauve]

I love agnes tachyon

[stable owl]

Pls don’t leave us without your teto word of the day

[dusk jay]

Current status of the new upd

[stiff ore]

alright this should be a fun game lol

[analog mulch]

Change my mind, Driver's License shouldn't be a rare joker

[solemn sonnet]

flat 3x mult if you have 16 enhanced cards isnt bad

[analog mulch]

Cuz it falls under the same category as other uncommon jokers

xMult IF

[solemn sonnet]

In my opinion its not fit for a rare but not for a uncommon either

[analog mulch]

Like Acrobat, Flower Pot, Blackboard

They need a condition to work

[solemn sonnet]

yes but their conditions can be annoying (flower pot)

Having enhanced cards is easy its like 4 arcanas and you already have about 10 enhanced cards

[analog mulch]

This applies to Driver's License, if you don't get lucky with purple seals

[solemn sonnet]

flat free 3x mult isnt bad but i just don't think its fit for a rare

and you need to get enhanced cards for it

[analog mulch]

Midas Mask and Marble Joker at least help it

[woeful mantle]

Yo what's the best card synergies for a flush deck not flush five just flush

[analog mulch]

Ancient

And whatever retrigger

[woeful mantle]

I use checker

Ancient don't work half the time

[tawdry burrow]

game, why

[woeful mantle]

Play 4 of a kind

Plasma carries

[solemn sonnet]

marble joker + stone joker on plasma

[analog mulch]

I mean, just get an xMult with Flush levels and you should be good

[woeful mantle]

Ty

[tawdry burrow]

castle

image please upload

took a fucking while

[analog mulch]

For Checkered Deck, you wanna decide which suit you want to build towards early

Preferably Hearts cuz Bloodstone

[tawdry burrow]

oops + Bloodstone + lustly is a mad combo

[analog mulch]

You mean Lucky Cards

[solemn sonnet]

is it just me or is bloodstone something you see once in a decade

[analog mulch]

Sometimes yes

[solemn sonnet]

i barely see it and when i do its too late for me to take it

[shut horizon]

Can i reach naneinf ?

[analog mulch]

Wait

Youd have it if they were all red seal steel

Idk why you blew ur load early

[robust pawn]

i like blood stone and the oops all 6s

[weak relic]

Where throwback

[past nebula]

gotta pray

i got bones but i still dont want to lose mr.bones to the head

oh well i lost bones

[fervent plover]

What deck would u guys prioritize if ur playing orange deck?

The one with no face cards?

[fervent plover]

Sounds wrong in so many ways

[weak relic]

Oww emm geee

$5

[past nebula]

didn't get the flush house

eve with so many face cards

i was getting cocky and tried to get 2 kings + 3 queens heart flush house, and discarded the jacks i could have easily used for the flush house

[acoustic kettle]

Why flush houe

[acoustic kettle]

This is naneinf

[analog mulch]

Not all of his cards are red seal steel

[acoustic kettle]

Right

[calm furnace]

game was like here you go win my child

also crazy i had groker ante 1 first shop and picked nova late at ante 6

game ended with groker at +40 and nova at +39 lol

after ante 1 boss first shop gave me a clean copy of square joker

which i ignored

cant remember the last time i had square joker cotnribute anything

even with groker discarding for a blue seal and losing -1 mult is much better than pairing it with square

[fallow jasper]

remember that Scott cawthon supports ICE

[marsh dove]

w combo

[weak relic]

Where Yorick?

[marsh dove]

if i find a soul ill sell my blueprint to find the yorick

[calm furnace]

merry andy would go so 🥵

[weak relic]

Hmm, not bad

[marsh dove]

😭

i die if i take it so i cant

[calm furnace]

imagine if they let you copy merry andy like with burger

[quartz ember]

you can sell blueprint and use ankh

[pale wolf]

lol

[lapis lintel]

how to unlock mul t, i want double nailgun too

[hardy fable]

what

nail gun?

[pale wolf]

[quartz ember]

[dawn gulch]

Nah Soul gambling

Mail In gonna debuff soon anyway

[rustic aspen]

[stuck dagger]

chigoat

[stuck dagger]

how do you even get that much vouchers

[rustic aspen]

double tags + voucher tag

trying to get antimatter

[stuck dagger]

didn't work

[rustic aspen]

?

[stuck dagger]

you got antimatter?

[rustic aspen]

no

[stuck dagger]

so didn't work

[glad bronze]

Did it work?

[stuck dagger]

perhaps

[frozen shale]

forgot to move blueprint b4 screenshotting

wraith vs cryptid?

[digital pewter]

i love never finding any xmult jokers with a 100+ mult dagger

[frozen shale]

cool I got ancient joker now

[silent quiver]

Seeeeeeeedddd monaayyyyy

[rugged umbra]

did it work?

[rustic aspen]

[viscid stone]

Is Gold Stake easier or harded than Jokerless

[peak blade]

depends on the deck

[viscid stone]

Jokerless was much easier than I thought so I suspect it's harder

[viscid stone]

I haven't yet unlocked all the Gold Stakes. Which one would you recommend?

[peak blade]

the worst decks will be harder, the best decks will be easier

[pale wolf]

I think Jokerless is harder than any deck on gold stake

[peak blade]

black deck gold stake is worse imo

[stable owl]

The only way is to get random joker from tarot?

[pale wolf]

? no lol

none

[peak blade]

jokerless means no jokers ever

[pale wolf]

You don't need to use Jokers to beat the game

[viscid stone]

Weirdly, I saw the blank coupon a fair number of times

When the blank coupon finally does nothing:

I have gold unlocked on Spectral deck

[peak blade]

jokerless also has wheel of fortune in it which is really obnoxious

[viscid stone]

But I can focus on unlocking another deck if it's easier

[stable owl]

How tho, stack planets?

[latent egret]

yes

and steel and glass

and the fact that no jokers show up in shops means easiest deck fixing and decent bits of money with hermits

[pale wolf]

blue seals, glass

[viscid stone]

Glass ended up letting me down because it kept breaking

[pale wolf]

Red seal glass especially

[viscid stone]

Managed to beat the ante 8 though, thanks to planets, steel, +mult

[latent egret]

i won once with ouija and i barely scraped by

i had level 4 4oak lol

[viscid stone]

Does anyone have an answer to this lol

[latent egret]

easiest are blue yellow ghost

ghost is fun

[fervent plover]

https://youtube.com/shorts/XdLyBxx3YHY?si=buG2rqmLR96sjtYn

[pale wolf]

honestly it doesn't really matter much for Discovery, just play whatever seems fun

[fervent plover]

How is it so fast?

[pale wolf]

mod

[viscid stone]

I called it the spectral deck lol

[pale wolf]

I forget which one, talisman?

[viscid stone]

I forget what the non-colour decks are called

[sullen aspen]

Definitely ghost lmao

either that or yellow

[viscid stone]

Okay I will keep trying on Ghost

From what I remember, pairs is the meta for higher difficulties

[frozen shale]

eternal blackboard y or n?

[pearl moss]

What hand

Blackboard is the club/spade only in hand right?

[latent egret]

top 5 jokers in the game

unless you play a 5 card hand its a yes

[sullen aspen]

idk man

[terse vale]

yes always

[sullen aspen]

id rather have some other xmult

[terse vale]

like 90% of times

[sullen aspen]

but blackboard isnt bad either

[terse vale]

like what ?

[latent egret]

then you are not playing optimally

[sullen aspen]

cavendish or obelisk idk

I like them more

[latent egret]

obelisk needs work and cav is conditional

[sullen aspen]

blackboard also needs work🤔

[terse vale]

likes obelisk but doesn’t like blackboard 💭 I don’t mean to be rude but I have never seen this

[cedar ore]

Why tf was this person downvoted, that's a very reasonable question. (post about compatibility of bp and luchador)

[latent egret]

black board works even if you only have planets levels for +chips and +mult

[terse vale]

also yea i’d rather have other Xmult but that doesn’t mean the Xmult I have is bad

[latent egret]

you can use it very reliably on a non fixed deck at all

[sullen aspen]

yes

[clever sage]

i still hold that it'd be cool if mobile balatro had a vertical layout option

it'd be cool i think

[sullen aspen]

I like obelisk🥺

[latent egret]

cause mobile and pc are the same game

[sullen aspen]

I always take it

[clever sage]

in mobile you need to physically drag jokers to a "sell" button to sell them

[sullen aspen]

idk ig its not my cup of tea

[cedar ore]

The game is the same, but it literally works on PC and doesn't work on mobile

[clever sage]

so the blueprint would get moved and thus not copy luchador

[latent egret]

didn’t think about that

in my pc elitism

[clever sage]

i play a lot of mobile balatro

specially when i go out for a walk or just get a coffee somewhere

[stiff fjord]

reddit moment

[jade arch]

damn

okay nevermind lol

[digital pewter]

man

only drew 2 queens and zero steel

[latent egret]

here is your problem

[digital pewter]

i tried man i really did

i don't think i saw more than a single hanged man on that run

[latent egret]

why did you have 8$

interest alone is enough to open arcanas

[digital pewter]

because it was the final boss blind and i rolled all the way down

and i'm not going past ante 8

i'm stake grinding

[latent egret]

and you still have 1 extra card

[digital pewter]

i took a steel card

wasn't a queen but i only found a lategame steel tarot once

[calm furnace]

stm is a finnicky build

[latent egret]

stm is only viable if you get deckfixing

grimbo the goat for a reason

[calm furnace]

yeah

[jade arch]

What strategy should I do with this?

[digital pewter]

unfortunately i cannot see into the future to tell if i'll even get a hint of deckfixing in the run

[calm furnace]

and even with deck fixing gotta have some chip source because pluto is so shit

[calm furnace]

sell golden joker take egg for swash

but you need chips

[peak blade]

i got ouija almost immediately on jokerless and had like 10 10s but still lost
straights are the best strategy for jokerless

[calm furnace]

in the jokerless challenge?

[peak blade]

yeah

[calm furnace]

you have extra discards anything works tbf

the first few planets is your direction

jokerless challenge is basically do you get telescope or not

with early telescope the challenge is nothing

[latent egret]

it depends on blue seal

4oak is more boss resistant imo

straights without blue seals/telescopes is way harder than 4oak

makes it harder to hold steel

and you cant choose to play glass or not as freely

[quartz ember]

4oak is potentially easier to fix for with the abscense of straight jokers

[warped moth]

×12 Hologram gold stakes win is pretty rare I think :o

[fervent plover]

@calm furnace what deck would u build on orange deck?

[calm furnace]

orange?

[latent egret]

orange stake you mean?

[robust pawn]

stake ?

[calm furnace]

yeah also ouija is kinda punsihing

7 hand size means you get less cards to form a 4oak when discarding

[silk cobalt]

Ok we're getting a PhotoChad run... SuperNova is the worst rn right?

[latent egret]

yes

[jade arch]

Okay, okay yall!

I got it!

I got the synergy

What the hell do I do now?

[terse vale]

have good money

[quartz ember]

dont let it get to your head

no, wait

dont let the head get to you

[strong willow]

Anyone have any tips for the jokerless challenge? I managed all of the others in 1 or 2 attempts but this one is kicking my arse

[glossy forge]

Holy shit dude

[dawn sedge]

nah you got that bro

[glossy forge]

Dead 😔

I needed to be saved by Mr. Bones

[solemn bough]

Well ❤️‍🩹

[crimson carbon]

some 2024 fragile challenge video i recorded

[strong willow]

Ante 8 round 8

[distant thunder]

What jokers play well with obelisk?

[dawn sedge]

none

[distant thunder]

dam

[dawn sedge]

@versed path look im already making friends

[versed path]

STOP HARASSING ME!

WHO ARE YOU!

[versed path]

Also this is just false

[dawn sedge]

ok blud

[plain briar]

does changing suit of a card bypass pillar?

[versed path]

Obelisk is good antes 4+ when you have been playing pairs

[versed path]

No

[dawn sedge]

ok thats not a joker ???

"what jokers play well with obelisk"

[versed path]

Any +mult joker

Its an xmult so

[dawn sedge]

omg bru

[versed path]

That helps

[twin rune]

Any scaling chips and scaling/solid enough static +mult jokers make it incredible, just so long as you're not dependent on pair levels

[dawn sedge]

yk what? we're NOT friends anymore, waterslashfire ....

[versed path]

Burglar also synergies very well.

[dawn sedge]

yeah ok fine

[distant thunder]

ooooh that sounds interesting

[versed path]

Yeah just play pairs and start deckfixing for a rank and then you can start playing 3 and 4 oaks

Obelisk is an interesting joker.

[distant thunder]

yea i wanted to try it out its funky

[dawn sedge]

hi can we play ...

[distant thunder]

DNA this will be funny

[uneven garnet]

Am I going crazy or does Egg Joker kinda look like Eggy from BFDI

[crimson carbon]

blueprint and brainstorm

[distant thunder]

[safe venture]

John flush

[crimson carbon]

that was a joke but i think lucky cat goes good with obelisk

[acoustic kettle]

Anything +chips

+mult

[glossy forge]

This is gonna be a funny one

I love daggers

RAAAAARGH 🗡️ 🛡️

[pale wolf]

eeh

[sly bolt]

shield

[pale wolf]

I disagree

[sly bolt]

sup zeb

[pale wolf]

You often don't need the extra hands from burglar for scaling obelisk, but rather need the discards to not inadvertently reset obelisk by playing too many small hands too early

[pale wolf]

hi hi

[sly bolt]

very nice

[acoustic kettle]

But big obelisk

[outer rover]

What do I drop for mime? (Lvl 19 high card)

[acoustic kettle]

[sly bolt]

I would activate obelisk around 25 hands

[pale wolf]

lmfao

[versed path]

I should of clarified that its also good before scaling the obelisk since you can get 40+ pairs played, so you wont have to worry about running out of hands.

[pale wolf]

That's extremely Overkill but yeah that works

40 pairs you've already pretty much won the game

[acoustic kettle]

40 for endless maybe

[sly bolt]

is that bad 🥺

[pale wolf]

It's about 10 more than I usually aim for

[sly bolt]

I get obelisk around like a3 usually

[dawn sedge]

sell the neptune here

[glad bronze]

The dagger printer rahh

[sly bolt]

too early or too late I rarely bother with it

[glossy forge]

THIS IS GONNA BE A REALLY REALLY FUNNY ONE

[pale wolf]

It's a difference of like 13 between my low hands and whatever hand I'm scaling i need, which is not very hard to manufacture while holding obelisk

[versed path]

True you dont need that many, but the extra poker hands still do help alot

[acoustic kettle]

40 is so overkill

[sly bolt]

wait so am I doing overkill already 😭

[pale wolf]

i think you should try it

[acoustic kettle]

25 is pretty high

[glossy forge]

15~ is my standard for obelisk

[sly bolt]

I'm pretty hi

[pale wolf]

how close are you getting to actually resetting obelisk

[sly bolt]

hello

[acoustic kettle]

15 is good

[versed path]

I had to skip all of ante 8 because i had 18 3oaks and 21 pairs played

[pale wolf]

I still feel like one of the best synergies in the game is spare trousers and obelisk

[uneven garnet]

Hiii

[acoustic kettle]

Eh

[versed path]

Woah never thought of that one

I should try that

[acoustic kettle]

Well it is 2 good jokers

Can never go wrong

[versed path]

Pants is goated anyway though so

[uneven garnet]

I'm gonna trigger some of y'all

[pale wolf]

spare trousers carries you for antes on pretty much that and a chip Joker alone, no xmult needed, While spamming a hand that allows you to play both pairs and high card to scale obelisk when necessary

ffs

[acoustic kettle]

Aunties

[dawn sedge]

aunties so tuff

[pale wolf]

yea yes

fuck Google and all that I'm tired of it getting mentioned

[clever sage]

one of my first balatro runs was me douple pair maxxing with spare trousers and planet cards

[pale wolf]

Voice to text

[clever sage]

i think i got double pair up to level 25

[pale wolf]

That's fun, two pair does work with spare trousers but I don't think it's actually the best hand to build for while using it

[acoustic kettle]

Idk if i want my most played hand to be two pair for obby

[pale wolf]

if you level up pair then you can use twopairs to scale more per round while winning with just one pair

[clever sage]

well it was FUN

and thats what matters

[pale wolf]

???

[uneven garnet]

Zruth

[pale wolf]

what

explain yourself

[outer rover]

^

[dawn sedge]

why is ts genius

[acoustic kettle]

Nvm

[pale wolf]

It's the basis of most hand scaling Jokers

runner is not a Straight build Joker, etc

[dawn sedge]

mmmm ok

[pale wolf]

whatever hand you're scaling your Jokers with you don't want to level up so you can play fewer of per round

[acoustic kettle]

Well on straight runs you have a ton of chips from the straights anyway

[clever sage]

cuatro

my balatro playstyle is just having fun and doing dumb stuff to see if it works

[uneven garnet]

My Balatro playstyle is basically burning every weak card I have

[clever sage]

i've been finding a new appreciation for straights

specifically ace to 5 straights

i really wish aces got new jokers for them because i really like them for no reason at all

like give me a retrigger for aces or a scaling for aces

[undone laurel]

My body is a machine that turns Oops! All sixes! Into

[glossy forge]

I think Runner goes into the dagger, right?

He's at +15

I can just spam high cards then swap to Pairs for obelisk-maxxing

[clever sage]

my body is a machine that turns Chad Lucky cards into +0 mult

[undone laurel]

At least spaceman's popping off

[clever sage]

life or death for runner

death! death! death!

🎽 : life!

[glossy forge]

The dagger hungers

Runner is at +15...

[clever sage]

fearful hunger

[glossy forge]

[stable owl]

Cat where

[clever sage]

up my butt

(i didnt find him)

[latent egret]

you should spam pairs

then go high card

because playing 1 hc when preparing obelisk is just lost scaling

while playing 1hc when actively scaling obby means death

[uneven garnet]

This is my peak rn 😭

[clever sage]

its not bad at all tbh

[serene forge]

don't use hc as an obelisk buffer

[pearl moss]

2 new gold sticker

finally

[outer rover]

Hand size maxxing

[pearl moss]

yep

[latent egret]

based and anti ecto pilled

[pearl moss]

trivialize the bell

it help so much

[glossy forge]

Oooo makes sense. My pairs and HC are close enough

[pearl moss]

5 more

[clever sage]

old screenshot because i dont have a lot of good ones rn

[pearl moss]

just 5 joker left

[clever sage]

my first photochad ♥️

[pearl moss]

grats

i need 5 joker left for gold

[molten thicket]

is it a photochad if it isnt a chad?

[pearl moss]

seance, baron, midas, stone joker and flower pot

[clever sage]

its photochad in my heart

[pearl moss]

i think stone joker is going to be annoying considering i have only encounter twice within my 200 hour run

even with stone

[molten thicket]

stone joker is pretty fun imo

[pearl moss]

i have encounter metal joker more than stone

[clever sage]

and okay i lied i mostly took it for the polychrome photograph

look at him he's beautiful

[uneven garnet]

What's that seal, newbie asking

[pearl moss]

i have never encountered it, that's the issue. i need for gold stake

[glossy forge]

Guys... Riff Raff gave me a Gros Michel. The next round it gave me a Cavendish 😭

[serene forge]

I hate Photograph

[pearl moss]

did you win

[clever sage]

its a sticker that appears on your jokers if you've completed them in a certain stake

and it displays the highest stake you've beaten with that joker

[molten thicket]

do you just hate any good joker

[clever sage]

so for example, robin has beaten gold stake with riff raff

[pearl moss]

btw does wild card trigger flower pot?

[uneven garnet]

Ohhh, so I have to beat a higher stake than the one I am with that joker to do something... But what does that do

[molten thicket]

it does

[pearl moss]

ok

hoof

[clever sage]

it doesnt do anything, its just for looks

[pearl moss]

good

[serene forge]

no I hate dogshit ones

[pearl moss]

guess next would be a wild flush then

[clever sage]

the reason why you might not have them is because you either haven't beaten any stakes yet or because you have it disabled in the options

i think its in graphics but im not sure

[serene forge]

I hate Baron

[molten thicket]

this is so un-based and so un-endless pilled

[uneven garnet]

I didn't beat any more stakes than the base one... on the Yellow deck... ONCE

[pearl moss]

i too hated baron

[clever sage]

i bet you must love one of the random "gives mult/chips if hand contains a specific poker hand" ones

[uneven garnet]

I love Ancient Joker

[ancient gyro]

"good jokers"

[clever sage]

then the jokes you beat that stake with will have a little white sticker on the top right

[molten thicket]

ok

[clever sage]

jokers*

[serene forge]

spare trousers is freaking amazing dude

[glossy forge]

THE DAGGER HUNGERS

[clever sage]

no no i mean shit like jolly joker

[undone laurel]

20 whole mult 🤑

[ancient gyro]

jolly is on my list lol

[serene forge]

jolly joker is awesome

[clever sage]

well okay heres my hot take then

[serene forge]

jolly is far better than ph*tograph

[ancient gyro]

its one of my most frequently purchased early eternals on black++

[clever sage]

ok now this is ragebait

[serene forge]

no it's ragebait to say photograph is good

[ancient gyro]

[ancient gyro]

kamino👻

[serene forge]

[ancient gyro]

sorry but I'm taken 🤞

[glad bronze]

Not making any advances bro

I like someone else

[clever sage]

im not super far into balatro yet but here are mine

[ancient gyro]

um

[clever sage]

my hot take is that aces are cool and i wish they were buffed

[glossy forge]

I CUT MY STUNTMAN HELP

[ancient gyro]

well 6 c++s in it'll prob look different

[clever sage]

i know i was just sharing my stuff

i really like misprint he brings me joy

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[lunar zealot]

i swear to god my roguelike run tonight fucking sucks

[glad bronze]

Chad with card activated buffs are great

[molten thicket]

too based and endless mode pilled ✌️

[lunar zealot]

why is this week so shit

im so mad

[ancient gyro]

i have varying opinions

[ancient gyro]

its only been three days

[pearl moss]

get better luck?

[molten thicket]

(ive lost any skill to play anything else other than white stake endless)

[clever sage]

skill issue

[ancient gyro]

I don't think sts is for many ppl here

[jade arch]

I call this one "PLEASE I NEED A HANGING CHAD PLEEEEEEEASE"

[clever sage]

odd tod knows what he's doing

he knows

[ancient gyro]

why need something you can't afford

[molten thicket]

i bought and played sts for like 30 hrs until i gave up bcs its so hardd

[clever sage]

i really like scholar

[ancient gyro]

its

[lunar zealot]

i want to get better at slay the spire

[clever sage]

i like scholar and Fibonacci together

[fervent plover]

Deck

[clever sage]

i WANT my aces bro i WANT THEM

[ancient gyro]

I'll double it up and give it a full breakthrough on the sequel

[molten thicket]

like i consistently die at donu & decu or sth idr the name

i have no idea how ppl do higher ascensions

[wintry ice]

i thought people were talking about stm for a moment

[fervent plover]

Orange deck. The one with no face cards

[hidden birch]

Tuff seed

[ancient gyro]

we can add her

[lunar zealot]

god i hate zany joker 😭

literally 0 use case for that joker

every other has the excuse that you can use them early game

but who the fuck plays xoak early

[uneven garnet]

Can someone draw Lusty and Wrathful kissing ?

[ancient gyro]

I made both use cases for two page 1 jokers recently

pretend acorn was vv

[uneven garnet]

THIS IS EXACTLY MY RUN

[ancient gyro]

where

[olive basin]

How lustful of you.

[jade arch]

Who do I sell to buy it?

[ancient gyro]

🗿

pepsi

also you're dead

[uneven garnet]

Oh wait, it's not, different seed, I just thought the Blind is the same

[dim elk]

finally, eight ball being useful

[uneven garnet]

The flag or Popcorn

[jade arch]

yeah I know, I'm screwed

[uneven garnet]

I love gay men kissing

I wan mah Balatyuri

[calm furnace]

baron if it was good

i used lucha 3 times before didnt wanna use him for VV 😭

never had a run with so many luchas

[hidden birch]

.

[calm furnace]

also spaceman hates pluto. had spaceman and brainstorm from ante 2-5 and i got like 8 procs only. blue seals and extra discards saved the run

[clever sage]

ace rant as someone who likes aces

[calm furnace]

aces are great tho

unless you have hologram Grim is the best spectral that adds cards

[clever sage]

yeah they are but they're like

irrelevant

[pearl moss]

aces is just like real life, you cannot always aced it

[calm furnace]

and Scholar is very relevant

for ante 8 Ace is along with 9s and Jacks one of the best ranks

[clever sage]

i just wish aces got a little bit more interactions that arent just mult and tarot cards

[lunar zealot]

i don't think anyone thinks aces have potential

[ancient gyro]

aces are good rtb tech

[acoustic kettle]

True

[lunar zealot]

kings are the real potential rank

[calm furnace]

depends on what potential

[ancient gyro]

they don't need joker synergy to prove their value

[clever sage]

I DO because I LIKE ACES and I WISH they were slightly better

[calm furnace]

to play the game as intended Aces have more potential than kings

[ancient gyro]

they're better than most ranks

[clever sage]

thats fair and i will still like aces despite it all

but i just wish they had like

10% more relevance

thats all

[glad bronze]

Ace has no potential tho

[calm furnace]

they are still one of the best ranks

[acoustic kettle]

Strengthening kings into aces is great

[ancient gyro]

rtb tech

[glad bronze]

Ace is just man

[ancient gyro]

stm tech

[clever sage]

they do to me because I like aces..

[languid kite]

Red Deck on Checkered.

Huh.

[clever sage]

I think i heard why this happens

[ancient gyro]

three jokers (one of them is whatever)

[clever sage]

Isn't it something to do with jokers created from something?

[glad bronze]

what about dtrn tech or jjba tech

[turbid nova]

How come you can send gifs and it won’t let me

[grand yarrow]

hey there, im trying to print balatro cards for my collection what would be the best place to get their pictures in normal card size, i know i can just pick off a google stock image but i just wanted to make sure if theres any better way to do this

[ancient gyro]

they're not jokers silly

[clever sage]

spriters resource

[dim elk]

HOLY SHIT, IT COULDNT GET BETTER

[calm furnace]

one time i had a baron build and the plant coming and i strengthened my kings to aces and won

[clever sage]

https://www.spriters-resource.com/pc_computer/balatro/

[calm furnace]

aces > kings

[clever sage]

Use this

[clever sage]

10 dolars its chicot

[ancient gyro]

a certain someone here wouldn't like to see this

[dim elk]

AHAHAHHAQHAHA

AHAYHA\ZHYHAHA

[acoustic kettle]

Chicot is actually great

[wintry ice]

this fits kings more

[calm furnace]

also aces allow you to clear face cards when you are out of discards is just an insane massive value when you have bus

[clever sage]

Do any of the legendary jokes use chances?

[pearl moss]

IT EXIST

[ancient gyro]

perkeo technically

[clever sage]

then do it yourself..

[calm furnace]

against the water with bus aces saved my ass

[clever sage]

Fair but I mean chances that can be affected by Oops

[wintry ice]

the king of spades

[lunar zealot]

I said it first nerd

[clever sage]

its spelled affected right

im pretty sure

[wintry ice]

ok nerd

[lunar zealot]

nerd

[turbid nova]

They should add a jevil joker

[wintry ice]

nerd

[lunar zealot]

nerd

[ancient gyro]

word

[wintry ice]

nerf or nothing

[lunar zealot]

a ba da bird bird bird

bird's the word

[grand yarrow]

Tysm

[acoustic kettle]

Not so balatro

[clever sage]

completly unrelated but i had an idea for a "joker" that makes it so every played hand counts as something else, and having it change every round like rebate

Because it'd be the actual "joker" card

[calm furnace]

what needs buffs is not aces its poor 7s

[clever sage]

I just thought it'd be funny

[clever sage]

TRUE

Sevens are The lucky number and they have nothing to do with lucky cards

[calm furnace]

i propose 7s to have a built in hidden oops mechanic in them

[wintry ice]

7s basically just have todd for them

[calm furnace]

lucky cards trigger more on 7s

[wintry ice]

and straights i guess

[clever sage]

Imagine a joker that gives money if you play a hand that has nothing but sevens

[calm furnace]

7s are 2 strengthes away from becoming the great 9

[ancient gyro]

if only we had a mod for that

[clever sage]

that'd be cool right because it'd belike a jackpot

[glossy forge]

[turbid nova]

At least 3 7s then

[clever sage]

Cloud 9 should had been for 7s change my mind

[glossy forge]

Safe right next to a dagger

[wintry ice]

777 jokers are a common suggestion

[turbid nova]

Because that’s what’s commonly seen

[acoustic kettle]

So just to do list

On high card

[glossy forge]

Lucky 7's is my pitch

[calm furnace]

nah 9 is the best number

[clever sage]

Yeah so what it'd be FUNNY and FITTING

[ancient gyro]

how original

[turbid nova]

🎰

[clever sage]

Like the aran ryan fight in punch out wii where all of his stats are 7 because he's irish

[acoustic kettle]

Nerf to glass 7s

[clever sage]

give me the all 7s Joker

[calm furnace]

oh didnt think of that

but

on the bright side

glass joker synergy!!!

[clever sage]

You start with 7 stamina, he always gets up at 7, his attacks do 7 damage

[acoustic kettle]

True

[clever sage]

Give me the aran ryan joker that gives 7 mult, 7 chips, 7 cashout and sells for 7

[calm furnace]

ok so 9s give econ, 8 gives tarots 6 gives spectrals

[clever sage]

you know where that leads 7

seven giving planets

[calm furnace]

repurpose old 8 ball into a 7 card that gives planets 😭

[gloomy vigil]

what unlocks I should look out for besides brainstorm

[wintry ice]

7s are just old 8 ball

[gloomy vigil]

or should I just play the game normally and unlock stuff along the way

[clever sage]

Yeah just go on your own and do whatever

[wintry ice]

i mean you need to unlock everything to 100% the game

[clever sage]

dont try to "play optimally" specially if you're just starting out so just do whatever feels right

[gloomy vigil]

do I need to unlock the soul card

I just never see it

[clever sage]

By playing how you want to play you'll generally unlock jokers that benefit that playstyle

[wintry ice]

no it's just rare

[calm furnace]

always play optimal only play pairs even on white stake 😩

[ancient gyro]

when you first play the game just play to see if it'd any fun

[gloomy vigil]

I am having fun

[turbid nova]

Don’t try to “play optimally”
ALWAYS BET ON FULLHOUSE 🌎

[ancient gyro]

fun

[clever sage]

Can soul appear in arcana packs by default?

[calm furnace]

yes

[turbid nova]

Soul has only appeared in arcana packs for me

does it appear in spectral packs

[acoustic kettle]

Yes

[turbid nova]

Same for black hole

[lunar zealot]

soul is a spectral card

[turbid nova]

I’ve only seen it in planet packs

[lunar zealot]

black hole is also a spectral card

[acoustic kettle]

Arcana packs are just more common to open

[serene forge]

wonder style

[turbid nova]

Yeah but I thought they were like special spectral cards

That only appeared in arcana

[calm furnace]

they are special that they can appear outside of spectral packs

[turbid nova]

I see

[acoustic kettle]

I mean they are special in the sense that they can't appear in shop too

[calm furnace]

but cannot be generated by spectral jokers***

or found in shops on ghost

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[wintry ice]

spectral packs can sometimes have black hole

[turbid nova]

Never seen either of them appear there

[calm furnace]

lucky

[turbid nova]

But I guess I haven’t been playing for that long

[calm furnace]

fuck black hole

[wintry ice]

black hole is underwhelming

[ancient gyro]

never seen the big bang either but here we are

[turbid nova]

0/10 ragebait black hole is awesome

[wintry ice]

it's barely more value than a single planet

[turbid nova]

IF it’s in a planet pack

[calm furnace]

one of the worst spectrals in the game

[latent egret]

its “rarer” because you dont see as many spectral packs and they have less cards in them

[turbid nova]

^^^

[calm furnace]

its only good if you whiff inside a planet pack or if you are like transitioning from flush to flush five/house

[clever sage]

i dont sell my starting ghost deck hex card for invest value. i use hex on the first joker i see, and if it's garbage, i keep it anyways

[calm furnace]

even then blackhole is worse than a normal planet since it doesnt scale constellation or satellite or be able to be inside a fool

[turbid nova]

That’s kind of specific tho

[wintry ice]

hey i do this too

[acoustic kettle]

I mean i always take black hole in planet if i don't have a constellation

[ancient gyro]

not that I really want fool to hold a planet most of time

[turbid nova]

Exactly

[calm furnace]

not really

[calm furnace]

depends, sometime you really need the levels

[turbid nova]

I would only do it with the voucher where planets boost multi

I mostly use fools to copy tarots

[calm furnace]

it depends on what stage you are in the game and whats your source of mult and chips

[turbid nova]

Copying wheel of fortune to get twice

[calm furnace]

like magic deck is so great because if you find an early saturn you can level 3 times with the 2 fools and be set for few antes

and with consetllation a fool into a planet card is extra scaling on every aspect

[acoustic kettle]

Magic is fun

The free fools is fun

[calm furnace]

i love how it can give you a direction for your run from the fist shop

[turbid nova]

Also I like that black hole levels up even the undiscovered hands

[acoustic kettle]

Do they

I never really played secret hands

[turbid nova]

It does

It makes them lv 2

Sometimes you level up the lower hands so much that the secret hands score less

[calm furnace]

yeah this is why as i said before one of the few rare cases blackhole is not a shit card

is when you are planning to pivot to hidden hands

[acoustic kettle]

Hidden hands aren't really common to use ante 8

[calm furnace]

which goes back to the point why blackhole is shit like 98.784587% of the time

[acoustic kettle]

Hidden hands just dilute the shops even more

[turbid nova]

So you’re telling me you’re in early game, you don’t have constellation or whatever and you get black hole

You’re not taking it

(From a planet pack)

[calm furnace]

if i find the hand im playing? fuck no not touching that shit card

if i whiffed yeah i take it

[turbid nova]

But why not just level up everything

[calm furnace]

because if im focusing on pairs or 3oak or whatever

i want it to be in the fool

[acoustic kettle]

Early game i save for fool

[turbid nova]

You’re not guaranteed to get fool

[calm furnace]

unless i have hermit

[acoustic kettle]

But later antes i'm taking black hole

[calm furnace]

you are not guaranteed anything in this game but sometiems you plan things in advance

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[acoustic kettle]

Black hole can save you from eye

[turbid nova]

Black hole synergy with the best joker of all time (obelisk)

[calm furnace]

if you are just relying on chips from planets not always

[unreal vine]

Huh?

[calm furnace]

did you save scum?

[unreal vine]

New bug

[calm furnace]

thats a save scum bug

[unreal vine]

?

What's that

[calm furnace]

quitting balatro and reopening the game

[turbid nova]

You can save scum in this game?

[unreal vine]

Yeah

[turbid nova]

I thought it had auto save

[unreal vine]

Idk

It works sometimes

[turbid nova]

Whenever I quit it just leaves me right where I left off

[pearl moss]

before it finish score, you can alt f4

[calm furnace]

you can save scum on packs, ivnisible joker

[pearl moss]

it save couple of time

[acoustic kettle]

Yes but not every second

[turbid nova]

I play on mobile

[acoustic kettle]

Just click the home button or whatever

[pearl moss]

oh

[versed dew]

In a photochad setup would it be more efficient to add blueprint to photo or chad?

[acoustic kettle]

Photo

[turbid nova]

I won’t do it anyway
If I lost I deserve to lose

[calm furnace]

photo for score, chad for gold seals and lucky cards

[turbid nova]

[versed dew]

Iil take your word for it. That was an instant reply

[acoustic kettle]

Photo for score chad for utility

[versed dew]

Ok so i just got brainstorm for that same run

Bro this green stake blue deck is gonna be so easy

Theres no way that j can fumble this right?

[latent egret]

the plant

[acoustic kettle]

Just make sure to make some glass numbers

[calm furnace]

omg i didnt one shot the first blind and now i cannot afford cloud 9

kill meeeeeeeee

[turbid nova]

I’m getting to gold stake with red deck first I hope I get my king Yorick

[jade arch]

Chat, am I ready for this?

[cloud sinew]

you should probably copy cat or baseball for most score i think

if cat is 3.5x or higher then copy cat

[jade arch]

I mean

I should prolly copy Dusk

[cloud sinew]

dusk is only 2.25x there

[jade arch]

yeah, and cat is like, 1.5

[cloud sinew]

and baseball is 3.375x

[jade arch]

I'm trying to copy dusk for the lucky triggers

I'm not sure if it's worth it though

[glossy forge]

Stale bread and warm water

[latent egret]

if you win anyways copy dusk

[jade arch]

damn, apparently I WAS ready

[versed dew]

Bro are you a fortune teller? I got the plant this run

[acoustic kettle]

Glass numbers

[latent egret]

yes i am purple joker

[jade arch]

I FINALLY GOT IT! I needed to get flower pot for C++

It's my only joker left

Please, for the love of all that is holy, I gotta win this one

[versed dew]

You wouldnt believe what happened

[jade arch]

Okay phew. Desperate times call for desperate measures

[nova elk]

Should I go for blueprint for money to reroll the shop or go for mult?

[latent egret]

you dont need mult

you already have 3 mult jokers

[acoustic kettle]

You need some xmult

[uneven garnet]

I kinda wanna port Balatro to J2ME

[safe venture]

John flush

[inland helm]

holy shit its john flush

[safe venture]

Yes i am flushman234balatro

I am 5 cards of the same suit but humany

[inland helm]

makes sense

[quartz ember]

even if you didnt have that many mults already, that question really does not make sense

[calm furnace]

dont wanna sell my boy 🙁

[lost vault]

sell the Homosexual instead smh

[fervent plover]

finally completed red stake of orabandoned deck

[lost vault]

how much isbthe bus

[fervent plover]

so hard to get all face cards in the deck

[fervent plover]

homosexual?

[lost vault]

polychrome

[calm furnace]

did not sell my goat

[calm furnace]

47

[fervent plover]

bruh

[lost vault]

:3

[calm furnace]

the goat remains on top

[fervent plover]

[calm furnace]

8ball popped like crazy today

[robust rapids]

Am I able to naneinf here if I sell DNA for burglar and reroll boss for serpent?

[dusty void]

Uhh show deck?

Yes

[robust rapids]

Sorry just added it

[dusty void]

I think

From all the naeinfs I've seen probably

[robust rapids]

I'm worried I have too many golds kings

[dusty void]

I think you gotta worry about hitting the goal before it

I'd say you have a decent ratio

[nova elk]

Won the deck eventually, played around with the Bp for money and mult

Saved me from losing once

[dusty void]

Btw you guys

You would not believe me but

5 seconds before this

I was thinking to myself "a trib would win me the run for sure"

[glossy forge]

Most miserable run holy shit

[dusty void]

Holy fuck that's my purple stake runs

[glossy forge]

Ain't no hecking way

Crying in the club rn

[dusty void]

😭

[acoustic kettle]

What's miserable about this

[dusty void]

Come here gang

Let me hug you

And console yoi

And shit

[glossy forge]

My hologram is at x1.75 because I couldn't pull any standard packs B)

[dusty void]

IT WAS A GOLD STAKE TOO FUCK

[acoustic kettle]

I mean you have two rentals

[glossy forge]

Yeah but I had econ through gold cards

[dusty void]

The law of hologram

[glossy forge]

Which was OK

[hidden birch]

No way!

[glossy forge]

It was just that

[dusty void]

By Yot Club !

[glossy forge]

I never saw much standards. Just some duds pulls with celestials

[dusty void]

Why tf is Gabriel typing

I'm scared

[olive basin]

It happens accept it learn from it then run it back!!

[glossy forge]

BRO I JUST CALCULATED IF I PLAYED THE STONE CARD I WOULDVE WON LMAOOOO

[olive basin]

Sen

[glossy forge]

Anyway go next B)

[jade arch]

Bruh what are the chances?

[olive basin]

Turn back now

[glossy forge]

Yeah, I'm going for streaks rn. My best is 6

We always run it back

[olive basin]

The layers of this discord chat is not for your kind

[remote verge]

i dont really see anything up with this

[olive basin]

Turn back or you will be crossing the will of god.

[glossy forge]

Is a round 1 investment tag worth it on Yellow deck?

[hidden birch]

Blueprint from judgement

[remote verge]

thats it im turning you into a joker

[olive basin]

Your choice has been made.

As the righteous hand of the father I will rend you inanimate once more.

[drifting beacon]

You can but it's tricky at ante 23, cause u gonna hit the score before playing all your hands. So I preconize to just do the ante 24 with this build and try to found burglar after (U can sell DNA for a reserved parking at ante 25 for making much money at each round for more roll in the shop)

[olive basin]

BEHOLD THE POWER OF AN ANGEL!!

[olive basin]

Also make sure to get my good side.

[shell dagger]

Not unless you also find ectoplasm, showman then blueprint in this shop as well

Ante 23 serpent only works with 5 copy jokers

[naive heath]

is 10 hands the maximum you can have?

[shell dagger]

No

There is no upper bound

[olive basin]

We can get much higher.

[robust rapids]

Thanks, yea I decided to play through ante 24 before looking for burglar again

[clever sage]

what if instead of wee joker it was called pee joker

and. well.. you can figurate out the rest.

[jade arch]

Negative Bloodstone AND Oops

[naive heath]

i disagree

[shell dagger]

The standard naneinf strategy will have 20 hands at one point in the run

[drifting beacon]

21 without hiero

[olive basin]

Hiero?

[drifting beacon]

Hieroglyph

[naive heath]

how

[shell dagger]

4 copy jokers + burglar is +15 hands

[drifting beacon]

bluestrom + burglar

[robust rapids]

Ok, I got super lucky finding burglar again. Is naneinf possible now if I sell DNA for burglar, skip blinds and reroll boss for serpent?

Sorry I've tried this run a few times but getting tired of starting over 🥲

[drifting beacon]

Yes you can now! 🙂

GG

[robust rapids]

Will post results. Wish me luck that I don't throw somehow

[drifting beacon]

Play slow and secure, you've done the hardest

[jade arch]

You've heard of photochad. But have you heard of whatever this is?

[robust rapids]

About to pull the trigger. Everything looks ok? Thanks again for all the advice

[drifting beacon]

A classical bloodstone build?

[shell dagger]

You may overscore still in ante 25 but it’ll work in 26 for sure

[robust rapids]

Oof well too late for me too try ante 26

[shell dagger]

You have enough to do both

Only takes a max of $450 to get serpent again

[jade arch]

But they're both negative...

[drifting beacon]

Surely but not a sock n buskin 😄

[robust rapids]

Am I able to try for naneinf on this ante, and then try again on ante 26? Sorry I don't know too much about boss rerolling

[jade arch]

Speaking of balatroers... Mweheheheheh. Guess what's just happened?

[drifting beacon]

yeap you can

[shell dagger]

Yes

[jade arch]

It's here baby. I gottem

[robust rapids]

Alright, here goes nothing

[clever sage]

the foolest one of them all

[glad bronze]

I once got like 314e and couldn't nan because I accidentally skipped over serpent

[shell dagger]

e314 is nan

wdym skipped over serpent

like rolled past it?

[pearl moss]

lets go

another gold sticker

4 more to go

[drifting beacon]

I always tkae 1000$ for my serpent (i have already loose my nan streak with more of 1000$ ...)

[pearl moss]

gotta say

that was a close call

i was able to the big boss by 1k score

its a close score

i just need seance, baron, midas and stone

[patent shore]

Nan with help doesnt count

[clever sage]

then what does count

[patent shore]

without

[clever sage]

why

[pearl moss]

freak

i actually still need 5 more

i forgot flower pot

[patent shore]

its not you atp

someones doing it for you

[clever sage]

what is it counting for then

its only for vanity and nothing else

[pearl moss]

i am so close to this

5 more jokers to go

[patent shore]

its counting for a fake nan on your screen

[clever sage]

i mean the nan is very much real

[ancient gyro]

ok

[patent shore]

sure its there, is it yours?

[dawn sedge]

red card better

[clever sage]

its only something for fun that doesnt dictate if you're a better player or not

just let people do whatever they want and dont be a dick about being jealous of a number on a game

[ancient gyro]

fr

[pearl moss]

Why is everything gone

[patent shore]

Balatro community has gone soft

[clever sage]

i ated it

its a game about playing poker with silly cards that do silly things

if you're mad that someone gets help when you were kicked around by other players dont make it someone else's problem

[ancient gyro]

wdym

[robust rapids]

Beat ante 26 prematurely before naneinf 😭 going to try again on the next ante

[pearl moss]

The eternal jokers

[ancient gyro]

yeah you're right 💔

[pearl moss]

What happened to them

[shell dagger]

You need to copy nothing until the final hand

[ancient gyro]

what are you talking about

[pearl moss]

Only red joker here?

[robust rapids]

Ahh ok. I can still try on ate 27 right?

[shell dagger]

Yes

[patent shore]

whos mad

im just here to share thoughts

[shell dagger]

You can try on any ante until 32

[pearl moss]

This is the same run as the picture before right?

[clever sage]

fair

[ancient gyro]

take a wild guess

[pearl moss]

Idk

[clever sage]

i just think it shouldnt matter if someone gets help or not because at the end of the day its about having fun

dats all
