And glass is hard to get
zealous zinc
you can get glass
torpid bridge
🙂
tepid skiff
cause justice is banned
not in all of them
zealous zinc
not in all of them
wdym not in all of them
if u mean not all modes, yea but the main mode is ranked
torpid bridge
Glass cards can be found in booster pack
zealous zinc
^
thts the main way of getting it
but good luck getting stars to align to get glass cards at all on a good card let alone getting a red seal on one
tacit quail
this gonna be a weird run for sure
zealous zinc
anyways yea, the meta is idol/retriggers, but smallworld is the alternative if u hate that
torpid bridge
Idol and baron
frank grove
yeah
torpid bridge
Baron has higher ceiling
But is harder to play than idol
I once watch a game where the streamer won thanks to skipping +3 hand size tag
😂
zealous zinc
correct play
torpid bridge
He has 2 mime, opponent play idol
zealous zinc
ooo
torpid bridge
And he was super lucky to get a double tag and +3 handsize
torpid bridge
Sometimes the game can be very strategic
When u pick the wrong play and have to improvise to win
zealous zinc
yes
i think its fun even if the meta is idol/retriggers
but it could be a lot better
torpid bridge
i think its fun even if the meta is idol/retriggers
Yeah cuz u never know if idol will appear
zealous zinc
rn i think a lot of advisors on the staff team are busy with stuff but
we were discussing how to like fix the meta for idol
torpid bridge
we were discussing how to like fix the meta for idol
Interesting tho
tacit quail
ts funny
zealous zinc
cause tbh for multiplayer players, what they mainly hate is that idol is very difficult to play and decides a lot of multiplayer games
so like
👀 maybe it will change but who knows
frank grove
i think the like fairly solid meta thing is always going to be a problem in ranked mp
torpid bridge
Honestly if multiplayer wants their game to be more dynamic just fucking rework every joker every season
🙂
Balatro is a deadass simple game tbf
zealous zinc
Honestly if multiplayer wants their game to be more dynamic just fucking rework ...
indeed
and we threw around this idea
torpid bridge
Do u know tft
zealous zinc
but im ngl the staff team lwk dead recently
tacit quail
i <3 4oak no discard
torpid bridge
A mode of league of legends game
zealous zinc
yes
torpid bridge
It has the characters's skill changed almost every season
zealous zinc
and i know what ur getting at yea
torpid bridge
So u have to.learn everything when season changes
frank grove
how often are mp seasons?
zealous zinc
i think lwk staff team needs some juice thats all cause we were discussing stuff exactly like what ur saying
but rn is like school time for a lot of people
tacit quail
head ante 1 ? im on the golden run no more heart debuffs all run
zealous zinc
and ppl busy, and they all volunteer as advisors so its just like a logistics thing ig rn
zealous zinc
how often are mp seasons?
3 month
frank grove
yeah
its a lot of dev time to come up with balanced ways of changing stuff most of the changes in multiplayer are fairly good though
frank grove
that already exists though
zealous zinc
small world:
frank grove
theyve done that
tacit quail
yeah but like
worse
make it even harder
Nuke all xmult NOW
"New season. we removed chips"
"Score is now Money"
etc
imagine a balatro money 1v1
patent bridge
thats doable
frank grove
you kinda sorta can do that with that one challenge
frank grove

tacit quail
also i still dont particularly understand the money in 1v1s
patent bridge
ok zodiac
tacit quail
in multiplayer
torpid bridge
Yes
frank grove
yeah
zealous zinc
round rewards
you get comeback money if u lose a life
frank grove
yeah
torpid bridge
round rewards
Losing lives also give u money
zealous zinc
its proportional to how many lives you lost
tacit quail
weird
quartz ember
round rewards
if you lose a life you get money 2xlifes lost
lost vault
purring
zealous zinc
we discussed about it being weird but like who know shwat will happen
torpid bridge
U have no chance to turn the table
tacit quail
it should delete money from winner
frank grove
and throwing for value like if you have a bunch of gold cards and your idol missed gives you even more money
torpid bridge
Thats why sometimes we see people come back when they have 1 life left
tacit quail
would work better
torpid bridge
it should delete money from winner
How
tacit quail
because winner with more score will usually be generally doing more econ
so they will improve anyways
quartz ember
doesnt seem very fair
tacit quail
so if you nuke econ for winning you get more plateau
rich mauve
because winner with more score will usually be generally doing more econ
then it's boring
you speedrun to 1 live
tacit quail
i mean its the same as rn
torpid bridge
because winner with more score will usually be generally doing more econ
You know most people in pvp just use all money every round
🙂
rich mauve
try to die asap
torpid bridge
They dont stack money
tacit quail
yes so dont let them have much money
lost vault
mreow
tacit quail
imagine winning you dont have money next shop
Debuff the money slot
either way this is a mod go to modding chat
torpid bridge
imagine winning you dont have money next shop
If that does happen people who dies first win eventually
Because
tacit quail
good for me <3
torpid bridge
Sometimes they can generate around 100$ money per round
Making them not rewarded tho for winning sounds stupid
tacit quail
yeah i can lose all my lives its peak
zealous zinc
just waste your 3 lives
sacking lives is a viable strat sometimes
it can fuck you over though
tacit quail
anyways this conversation is funny asf because this the normal balatro discord

based
calm furnace
you could play 20 runs of anaglyph to find a negative skip to dump your tags on
and never find that tag
or never have the money for buying the jokers
acoustic kettle
Early stickering is good on anaglyph
glass kelp
That's what keeps happening XD
calm furnace
or even worse find negatives that are all already stcikered
glass kelp
I've had a couple of runs where I got a few stickers on negatives but there's diminishing returns haha
calm furnace
Early stickering is good on anaglyph
you could get lucky and sticker like 3-4 in one run
acoustic kettle
Ye
calm furnace
but given that a negative tag is never guaranteed
its better to use a stronger deck like yellow
acoustic kettle
Also builds up how to win consistently without deck advantages
glass kelp

That's actually what I like about it

thats the 2nd run this week i full skip from ante 5-6 to the final boss because i found a winning build that is perisheble

Gold stake got me skipping blueprint
calm furnace
thunk did not cook with the perisheble mechanic
glass kelp
But I think once I've stickered enough common jokers I should start using ghost or something
mellow epoch
Aaa trying to unlock invisible joker but it's a pain in the donkey
frank grove
yeah, its not like the worst thing in the game, but unlike rentals where you can get use out of an econ joker or like an early scoring to beat a boss or smth perishables only have very niche uses that actually use the perishable mechanic
calm furnace
yeah, its not like the worst thing in the game, but unlike rentals where you can...
its basically a "fuck you" game design
not to different from games where increasing the difficulty just makes the enemies have more health and deal more damage
instead of making the game interesting
its crazy that rentals come after perishbles when perishbles make the game harder than rentals
frank grove
i think perishable is better than old orange stake though
calm furnace
-1 handsize?
frank grove
which was booster packs cost +1 dollar per ante
frank grove
gold was - 1 hand size
mellow epoch
It forces you to struggle
U like pain, huh?
calm furnace
that shit is ass
glass kelp
U like pain, huh?
No, it's like if you have a good perishable you have to think in advance how to replace it. I think the perishable mechanic encourages planning.
calm furnace
you are still planning perishble or not
glass kelp
I think it's more interesting than rental
mellow epoch
No, it's like if you have a good perishable you have to think in advance how to ...
I see
calm furnace
and the game basically becomes: full skip to boss if you find the missing piece and its perishble
calm furnace
I think it's more interesting than rental
absolutely not because rentals are game changing opening up almost infinite level of player and skill expression
frank grove
rental allows you to do a lot more, strong perishables is just "you should skip to 100% secure the ante 8 boss win" or "this just does its job for a bit and then i have to replace it anyway"
calm furnace
managing and using rentals is one of the biggest skill expressions this game has
i would not play the game after c++ if it wasnt for rentals because rentals + eternals is what makes runs interesting and unique
i have thousand+ of gold stake runs and i still find new tactics to use with rentals
glass kelp
i would not play the game after c++ if it wasnt for rentals because rentals + et...
Actually, yeah I kind of see your point
calm furnace
both rental and eternals are just top notch game design
eternals teach you the value of jokers
a punishing mechanic that teaches you the game
which is a sign of a good design
frank grove
yeah
calm furnace
before black stake i was just limiting myself to few jokers (the econ boost also helps but still)
and picking up eternals made me appreciate jokers i would never have used before
and retnals are just on a whole another level
i dont think its mathmatically possible to calculate how much depth rentals add to the game
frank grove
perishables dont have much interesting use cases
median summit
What stake is the chart based off of in the blind collection?
calm furnace
perishables dont have much interesting use cases
"heh fuck you"
shit costs full price too
rich mauve
the only thing that perishables do is blocking good jokers from showing up normal when you have it
calm furnace
somehow still triggered by baseball which is funny
glass kelp
perishables dont have much interesting use cases
They make the player make more decisions though
rich mauve
which sucks
frank grove
the two fun ones are, swash with gift card with perishables can be okay, but like that is also kinda mid, and also uncommon blocking or holding onto uncommons for bbc
rich mauve
like 
calm furnace
They make the player make more decisions though
not really
you either take the joker to survive (you would have done so if it wasnt perishable)
or take and hope you replace later
or full skip
all 3 things you would do perishble or not
this for example, perishble or not the game is still the same for me
if it wasnt perishble i wouldnt have skipped
but i could also have skipped if it wasnt perishble
because my build beats all ante 8 bosses
frank grove
yeah
calm furnace
the reason i would not skip is because i like playing more balatro in my balatro game
frank grove
yeah
calm furnace
but decision making wise a full skip or not was always the right decision
rich mauve
balalatro
frank grove
i also hate getting perishables out of buffoon packs
glass kelp
So that's an example of the perishable incentivising you to skip
calm furnace
So that's an example of the perishable incentivising you to skip
thats one of the few things that they add to the game
making you do a bad decision (skipping)
frank grove
yeah other than adding incentive to skip to final boss perishables dont do all that much
calm furnace
perishble could be interesting where if the you take a perisheble it disappears from the game
which makes them interesting
do i gamble taking this strong joker to survive and never see it again?
also would make perishible clean the shop and reduce rng
frank grove
or adding more stuff that interacts with it
calm furnace
or adding more stuff that interacts with it
heck if they were half price i wouldnt mind them
frank grove
like bbc and perished uncommons or like rentals and dagger or campfire
like an econ joker that gave the sell value of all perished jokers at the end of a round could be an interesting idea
calm furnace
bbc is a cool touch triggereing on perishable
frank grove
it wouldnt be that useful in anything below orange and i think thats part of the problem

nah
its +25 per stone card which is 25$ per 3$ its almost as cheap as runner
frank grove
castle you can at least deck fix to, wee you can get like like more than 25 per hand fairly easily
calm furnace
and you dont need to scale it a lot since you have the +50 from the stone cards themselves

yeah if its your ONLY source of chips sure
but planet cards and blue seals out scale it almost all the time anyway
barren wigeon
+25 chips is great
25 chips but you need stone cards in your deck
calm furnace
you need 6 hands with square to get as much as one stone card with stone joker
icy hollow
Stone is pretty good to just have
barren wigeon
me personally im not using stone cards all that often
icy hollow
And its 100 chips already with only 4

25 chips but you need stone cards in your deck
and it happens that stone cards are one of the best enhancments in the game

Same thing with steel joker. Tho steel is like rly rly overhated (at least on the reddit)

theres a mod called flowerpot that adds more stats to the game iirc

lucky need triggers. glass and steel need planet scaling
stone is always good

Stone is quite alright imo. Its not that bad

no way we're deadass saying stone is over any of those

i think stone is slightly better than steel at least at the moment
in most ante 8 runs
barren wigeon
i think stone is slightly better than steel at least at the moment
give me steel every day of the week especially if you have levels
icy hollow
Id put it 2nd personally. Tho im not a lucky believer anymore 😔 my whimsy has been stolen from me
rich mauve
give me steel every day of the week especially if you have levels
that's the thing
what if you don't have levels
frank grove
give me steel every day of the week especially if you have levels
yeah but like gold stake ante 8 runs are mostly pairs at the moment any amount of chips helps pairs more than other hands

Pair meta, pair +mult joker. Steel no +mult joker

if you dont have levels what have you been doing the whole run

the levels vs no levels applies to stone as well

the levels vs no levels applies to stone as well
No
Stone is better comparitevly when youre on low planet levels

the levels vs no levels applies to stone as well
huh? you not gonna be playing without a flat mult and using stone cards

As its a decent amount of chips
acoustic kettle
What the hell is this seed 46 dollars on second shop

Steel does almost nothing if ur scoring from +mult jokers (which is the standard)
acoustic kettle
😭
calm furnace
with high levels stone falls off
yeah, if i have a telescope and blue seals im not gonna make stone cards
frank grove
yeah all chips jokers/ chip sources fall off after you have like 30 levels on a hand what?
shell dagger
i think u guys are undervaluing steel as vv/ch protection
frank grove
its the reason why blue seals are so good because you can just replace one or two joker slots
calm furnace
flat mult has less deminshing returns than chips because of xMult
frank grove
yeah
calm furnace
sure +40 is plenty to beat ante8 but no one would say no to +60
shell dagger
flat mult has less deminshing returns than chips because of xMult
nah it’s bc of planets
acoustic kettle
The money never stops
calm furnace
nah it’s bc of planets
but planets are mult and chips?
acoustic kettle
I wish this is a gold stake run

planets give comparatively more chips than mult
