Wow it's kinda ass lol
All I have left to do is win a run without rerolling the shop and Iāll have completed all of the achievements.
are you running chips or are you running mult ;-;
ask the game
build with an identity crisis
ngl this is gold stake
Put hiker to the leftmost
if I win this
Also hi btw
I won't see canio again
why is my five house not working ?
got the stickers for wrathful jolly blue and stone jokers
Wow ur cards are so cute
Is that a mod
Is it better to go for chips or multi on plasma
yeahhh
chips
house 5
trueee
Chips early then pivot to stacking xmult
all my gold stake runs on plasma deck were won with chips alone
pivoting to xmult is risky
Chips, why not
itās called a āwhat joker do I find firstā
Can wraith give eternals ?
No
No
you need ~900 chips to beat 4/5 of the final bosses
which is hard but doable if you literally just set your entire mindset to it
my orange stake run was won with odd todd + hack and my gold stake run was won with stuntman
I dont like plasma on gold stake anyways
How? I don't understand
I had director's cut in that run anyways
Gold Stakes is impossible.

i wish the joker stickers stat in your profile would only care about gold stickers
and not all 1200 stickers for each joker for each stake
yeah that confused me at first
cause it implies that im close to c++ when in reality im not even halfway there yet

still using it as the basis to track my c++ progress though
because i dont want to count my gold stickers every run i play manually
and im running out of space for numbers in my username
bitki? more like bitchi
is this invisible joker worth it for the chance of blueprint? or am i maxed out.
Any tips?
look for any source of scaling chips (or stuntman) and dedicate your entire run to scaling it as hard as possible
if you dont find it then pray you find something like a blue seal, odd todd, or scary face and something to retrigger it to tide you over
if you dont find either
then hold r to restart your run faster
š
plasma deck is a wacky experience for high stakes cause it has the highest highs but lowest lows
if everything aligns it can give you the freest runs of your entire balatro career
where your inf chips or mult just obliterate all scoring requirements
but if you don't then you get annihilated by 2x score reqs
90/150
Damn
Found stuntman
Is it kinda lame
If I try to get to my first e
On plasma white stake
šš
Also is this really the last deck
that was close
I hit a new high score for a hand played, 8.955e36. I hope 1.1 gives us new routes for endless.
yea i feel like its only like two routes you can actually do to get high scores
if you wanna hit science numbers go ghost deck white stake.
man I had a run where I had 2 mimes, 2 polychrome barons, blueprint, and never found Serpent in time to cash in a new high score.
my new high score was with two mimes, blueprint and master plan targeting mime, a baron, Serpent.
on my high score run on my main i would have gotten naneinf but i got lit every voucher other than retcon then died
i think its like e230 smth
to me it seems like you gotta hit a perkeo targeting cryptid, but I dunno.
I havent actually looked up naneinf guides
this shouldn't be working but it is somehow. glass joker at x2.5
Fuck That
I'm just doign endless runs because I already beat all the stakes with all the decks
you dont need perkeo you just need decent luck
ain't that the truth
No way this happened
You can do serpent rolling and use a burglar build
I don't know what a "Fin de partida" means but I think you died there.
burglar is a criminally good card
AYO
someone cooked here
You'd need good econ, retcon, a baron build and burglar
burglar is pretty good econ on it's own when you're blueprinting or master planning it
for having cleared all the stakes on all the decks there's still so, so much I don't know though
gng what should i do
Play more
this is my best and only hit the road run
should've known I'd get betrayed eventually
At some.ppint that's all u can do really
what a bad day to get hex + ankh
maybe use DNA to make more jacks
yeah but what do i sell
idk what's your target hand?
Alrighty
my goal is for high cards and lotsa discards with steel jacks
oh duh you have the Duo
guys do you know any balatro servers with vc? i want someone to watch me play so i can improve
you get a little more out of the agate than smiley face, maybe dump the smiley face?
I sent you a DM
ghost deck lets you buy those deju vu's for red seals, cryptids to make copies of your red seal steel kings, ahnk to make copies of your best joker early on, etc etc
I just win if I don't fumble this somehow
Hypothetically if I had like 5 double tags and then skipped for a negative joker would I then have 6 negatives ?
yes
Or is it only one at a time
That's fire
It will be done
Poly skip is balanced
Gonna try my first run on anaglyph
I like going for holo skip and then using the hex so you have +10x Ć1.5
Yippeee
Works better early game
All achievements done as well
When's the earliest negative can show up for skips?
the hit the road being here since round 1 being a natural negative from bufoon pack
Get yourself a T-shirt that says, "I scored more points than there are stars in the observable universe and all I got was this shirt"
death best tarot don't @ me
absolute balatro
What is wrong with me why have I been shrugging off burnt joker all this time, this is insane, Iām an idiot lol
just wait until you realize you've been sleeping on nova
Yk when the first blind boss disables heart cards and you literally get 4/5 straight flush š
So you just gotta reset
Iāve actually loved that one since the beginning, I literally used it in my first win
I think the game is programmed to give you a boss that debuffs whatever target suit or rank your first joker supports
Rare 8 ball run
wait, what does nova even do?
I don't have any jokers I double skippedš
first ghost deck run on this save, went pretty well i'd say
adds +1 mult for each time you played that hand
I mean I like tarot generation, so itās not bad imo but itās not great either
mid run ankh family was such a good move
so when you've played pair 50 times in a run you're getting +51 mult next time you play it
I needed gold sticker XD
Real
play pair builds
it's so reliable
Iām on ante 7 and Iāve still never seen a chariot š
no
holy shit
my friend would be screaming his lungs out saying its a jojo reference rn
Creaming they pants
Enjoy ur win
what are the odds of this happening. Real screencap
Thats all i get. 
Holy rng
WHA
thats like 3/1000 * 3/1000 and then some
same chance per slot
Yooo incantation
Oh wait i read that as chicot.
You gotta copy the seed after this fr
Lol
chicot gets too much hate man
Holy shit
two legendaries would be just temperance money on abandoned deck
If you don't get your chicot by ante 7 you're kind of a failed human being
Good afternoon, everyone
I have like 30 red stamp kings but no way to make any of them steel š
im not even gon ask what the numbers gon be
the legendary was yorick, so not a dead slot
I need to know if a bug has been reported
good evening from europe
Good mooooorniiiing balaatroooooo
When I searched it, nothing appeared
whatās the bug
Negative perkeo w
?
I left the game with a pack opened, and now the shop disappeared with the continue button
That's true but like you need to mod ur game for that
cool i guess
if the pack was made by a double tag then that's well known to brick the run
one time I had two Chicots and hilarity ensued.
both of those were nat negative btw
Nope
Shop packs
the shop disappeared?
itās not that, the double tag pack bug removes the skip button
Two chicots actually give you permanent buffs after some bosses
So I have 3 doubles stacked and a negative just showed up in skip on ante 4
Like ahem ahem the manacle
inb4 the wall gets beat down
anaglyph deck?
oh I think ive seen this screen before
but whe I got it it was just a lag thing and it proceeded soon after
Mine is just stuck
itās in like limbo between interfaces
it never draws cards, and therefore no button shows up
Yeah
it's permanent +1 hand size?
maybe leave to the main menu and come back?
what pack?
Well on the bright side Iām already scoring 83 billion
Did that many many times
all I can suggest is restarting the game
ohh
Mega tarot
and if that doesnāt work then idk
Yeah
FINALLY got a chariot geez
congrats!
Yuh
āshop ui goneā doesnāt really sound like the same bug
They were all shitš
For at least a high score
Double chicot is wackt
don't @ me
"with a pack opened"
does
pack opened, but itās a shop pack
shop packs donāt reproduce the same bug afaik
yes
btw gng what is your top 3 used consumables? mine are 329 jupiters, 163 emperors and 154 hermits
My process was:
Open pack, close game, open game
Then the UIs were overlapping
Skip the bugged pack, and close the game
Open
BOOM! Game gone
and then the shop ui was gone too after you skipped?
obelisk gotta be one of the worst jokers tbh
No
It was there
Worth picking up the burg for one of the BP then search for the serpent?
your game might be possessed I canāt lie
as you can see here
what does it even do
I'm so God damn sad
(eat up money)
an unknown demon has dragged your shop into a limbo suspension
:3
the demon is probably a photograph
i mean maybe
I'll call doom guy
good idea
I'M GETTING THE F'ING UI BACK
although im new so take it as a grain of salt
you have a chips build what was the expectation
And give up on life?
why the photo
nah, record it and shi and send it to the bug reports cuz i dont want that happening to any of us
not that far
Record the UI not working? Okie
although holding r might be all you can do š
I'm on mobile lol
slandering for fun
Campfire my beloved
also for fun
oh!
that might be why ive never seen this happen before
mobile does produce things
ANTE 2 ANKH ON POLY HOLOGRAM??
I mean
HOLY
Yeah
who can pass up a negative photo
:3
the photograph is carrying econ rn
im wishing a certificate/marble/dna upon you
Dna my beloved
Blueprintš
Card sharp??
Holy shop
High card run it is
well thats way too general, at this point you would want a bp over anything but under nothing if that makes sense
Ngl that doesn't make sense I started like 4 days agoš
i a cople weeks ago, btw trust me when i say this, you are gonna SUFFER on everything past blue stake
Yeah I beat purple earlier today
High card has saved me every time
im not even kidding
š
yeah i agree
at current rates youāll get another before the next finisher boss
Math is hard while playing balatro
balatro decreases my reading comprehension 80%
Video recorded
100%
Everything is low-key from memory atp
that's the reason why localthunk added like
eye
needle
btw gng talking bout math i have a test tmrw but i already studied, should i revise my notes or continue balatroing
etc.
Balatro
notes and balatro after
i can still read like
the numbers on stuff but thatās only because I need that skill to play straights
imo
3rd nat negative bro wth is this run š
Does studying for math even do anything? Itās just rulesets
you can never study math enough
yeah but... its late so if i do one thing ill have to sleep after...
I think if I could get a green joker early and/or the space joker I'm chilling
yes
pattern recognition
and memorizing formulas
notes because you can always play balatro but the test is tmrw
see this is neat but uh
im not struggling with those guys
its the goddamn psychic every time
right
ante 1 psychic
ooh 4oak
ohhhh, capische capische, well goodnight from italy
goodnight good luck on your test!
so yeah im an idiot
there goes your oneshotting hand
Maybe itās just my math autism but Iāve always had my own way to just do anything
which would make you hella money
and good early games have been thrown away to a barely threatening boss far more often than Iād like
ues
it means you're a fast learner
Omg If I get the skip that levels up high card... With like 5 doubles...
also
New run it is
there is like
š you got this š
Tysm š
in other news, numbers are not going up fast enough
Yeah, pretty much
you may get stressed during exam and easy questions may become harder so I just study as much as I can to get any question easily
anyways
breaking: check out this bug
balala time
the weather forecast for this week is sunny with light clouds, with some rainfall 2 days out as well as 3 days after that
This seed was so goated
I took a rare tag
And the baron appeared in the same shop as mime, and the voucher was anti-matter
ox isnāt hard usually
whatās the build
Yo I just got a shop with antimatter and mime while I already had a baron lol
High cardšš
It's fine I 1shot him by picking -1 ante and a pair
Nicee
does losing all your money cost you much or no
Not in the slightest but kinda
usually you just spend to 0 in the shops before ox
Like I need money to buy playing cards
Where is the mime when you need it breh
Idk
It prolly won't appear
I got a crazy run but after 58 rounds I didnāt get a mime
Yeah I know
I'm on ante 8
Ig I'm going endless
Still 1 shitting everything with a 2 card
Nice, scoring e34 now
getting naneinf with this ine
How the flip are you getting your chips that high
@compact gazelle help me goat
idk
Yeah what the fuck is that
Oh itās modded that explains it
i was told no one cared so i went ham
huh
Should I get rid of half joker for blackboard
oh
whats your base mult
95Ć10
and do you get mult from scoring like mult cards or something
For high card
do you want luchador for something
including one that raised the cap, but I believe this would be naneinf right?
like the finisher
What's that
My high card is at 425x43 rn
guy on the right
Ohhh
is he being kept for the last boss
He's just in case
Naneinf is e308 lol
I highkey picked him for the ox but I beat the ox without needing him
are you trying to go endless with this or not
Naneinf is e4170
Yes
No?
alr then
yeah half can go
Bet
You missed the joke
FUCK SO CLOSE
thank god ancient showed up
i needed xmult so badly after my photo perished and ancient showed up exactly when I needed it
its fine youll get there one day
Poly burnt joker so temptingš
Do it
ok this one is just hilarious
No I like my build
The only content mod Iāve tried was the highest priestess
pain and suffering
W, high card is level 55 now
CREDIT CARD IN THE BUFFON PACK š£ļøš£ļø
i can do it too : )
Buffon
YES there is one waiting
perishable jokers be upon ye
whoops
Sell āļøš
half joker good for early game tho
What are you smoking
WE ARE SO BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY DID IT JUMP FROM 14 MIL TO 300MILššš
it's faster scaling
idk that I've ever gotten to do a madness + baseball card run and I'm not complaining
Definitely not hitting 300 mil so should I just cash out
sure
Not a single negative joker the whole run btwš
E40, nice
yep no reason not to
what jokers did you have
I donāt have the perkeo particle accelerator set up yet but I donāt think I need the deaths anymore, Iām gonna start generating plutos
If I ever said anything bad about Yorick, I take it back
Won my first gold stake with him and the double +1 discard vouchers
look at my boy
yorick is very consistent for gold stake, even with the -1 discard
in fact it's probably the best legendary for beating ante 8
genuinely conflicted on what to take here, what do you guys think
I probably should get an actual chips joker to make it further
probably license right?
chips jokers have diminishing returns once you pass ante 8, you'll need more xmult, not chips
lmao it's the ultimate wee run
speculative drivers is probably safer
I'm inclined to agree
you get money if you sell it and you get xmult if you keep it
tru
Real?
yes
this game can be so funny sometimes
moment
Alright time for a new best hand letās see what I get. Iām betting on e52
E48 nice
Multi-player looking run
couldn't screenshot atm rate my build
Pretty solid, 7/10
cobrar
4/10 dunno why u kept the mult flush joker
Classic photo chad
you don't understand, the +10 was absolutely essential to the scoring
Also brotochad in the big 2026
forgot to sell him
Now to do gold on the other decks š
why not both
Which one you did

i did ghost first
Bro pick a struggle
qou
Yes
hi
My firsh was yellow
Ghost is the first gold stake I unlocked
Hello
Running it back cause I don't think I played it well enough the first time
wants to play face cards
wants to leave face cards in hand
wants to destroy face cards
All ur jokers relate to face cards but in a different way. Lowkey pick which route u wanna go
There's like
I know
3 here
I just got canio
This is a Crazy statement but I'd drop both of the legendaries
I'm gonna try getting rid of joker
Really
I can't rn
Yes
i'd leave canio just incase
Too early
take your guesses!
because baron likes to baron
I've played endless countless times this is not a crazy thing to say
grimbo
would yall hex or ankh
it hit hologram
hex
eternal chad
aura (joke)
these are the kinds of runs we dream about š
Is it even worth it?
arguably best hit damn
balala gods when it's my turn to be a lucky streamer:
no
Look
constellation is better but holo was the 2nd best hit
e304? Tragic
potential man of runs holy shit
sell dna and buy blueprint trust!
eternal scary face
canio
plasma deck
what is this godseed
(5/6)
Yeah
just buy blueprint
Buy card sharp
OH GOD! It's the OX!!
depends
sometimes
better spend every single penny
but starting with polychrome and having better blue seal rates is good
Hey he's scary to some people okay
Will this kill me?
Nevermind
yah youāre at 5/6 this gonna be a goated run
no
I also wondering this
I hope
You sure ?
I have no monye
W pagelski
Ohh
if you have any to draw atleast
you die
I donāt even remember I think I fluked it
reset foe round 1 rebate š
its so beautiful
this is so wrong
It took me like 2 tries I think
but its okay
(Not bc of skill just luck)
either way straights and 4oaks are both good
winning
haha either way its only white stake
i relax so much whenever i say that to myself
Enjoy challenge 20 :3
For gold sticker
i will enjoy straights
Does anyone want the seed
Do you know what challenge 20 is? I wonāt spoil it if you donāt
A damn good run
i do
U gotta drop those 2 legendaries
yes
High Card Champ
I like the ghost deck
Thx
Bro rn ?
i think everybody likes ghost deckš
Oh. Well 
Guess that means I know what Iām talking about then
what would be your favorite if ghost didnt exist
Also a soul is very unlikely to spawn again
Ur basically joker blocking for no reason
I think I might have to just commit to the bit
this is a whole show
hack tuah (original joke by roffle lite)
It would be funny but youd die
I barely scraped past small and big blind
Anaglyph maybe
you have no mult dawg thatās probably why š
I guess I want to see where this goes
i think it's better to keep them for the money for now and then replace them for something better later
Plasma deck
At this point mult is useless
iām blind mb
Do I copy mime or baron
Baron first
personally i would have picked up brainstorm to copy wee there
Aight
Why baron first
Why not baron the whole time
Like look
I'm just gonna copy egg
Wtv
copy blueprint duh
you get more money if you switch to mime after playing the final hand
I donāt think I even need the brainstorm
yea
I'M OUT! 1.3 seconds
this was a blast
that is what i said
was it on wee when you played the hand
What to doš
sell burnt probably
no
what ante is this
It's my only way of leveling up my hand tbh
Wait I'm gonna do my first ever seeded rn
Considering I've no money
see how much itās at when itās on wee
This is good seed
10/8
i think you can affoard to sell burnt
Okay
its worse than everything else you have
True
do i take mime?
hell of a start holy
sure
what hand are you playing
what do i swap tho
It multiplies by 1.5 an amount of times equal to triggers times 1.5 mults. So if all of them are steel red stamp kings, thatās 2 triggers and 1 1.5 mult. If you have a baron and a mime, thatās 3 and 2. So youāll generally have more triggering than 1.5 mult-ing. To maximize the result, you want the two values to be as close as possible, so always increase whichever you have less of.
wee it would be 5,000^2 = 25,000,000 so nearly enough to oneshot, but I gotta scale my wee ig
got it itās always nice to have a big wee
Usually highcard
Ahhh I see
whatās deck fixing looking like if any
It was nice, surprised I even got this far
Its never over till its over
yeah pivot to photochad burnt is worth selling
how important is photo in a barron run? shall i swap it out?
telescope can get you a consistent pluto amount if you get it too
Yeah I did and just got a blind 4oak kings and got 43mil
Not important
only good with godlike deck fixing and a high high card level imo
also depends what youāre swapping it out with
ah ok, if i my high card is lvl 1 is it better to play 4 of a kind (like i have) or just do high card
this is what ive got going
Will blackboard active if I have no cards in my hand ?
baron is better the less kings you play so unless you can get 4oak with jacks iād say pivot to high card
also donāt play the red seal kings
iām dumb ignore that
ok ill start spamming planets then, i think ive left it too late D;
this is unseeded, i didnt know what i was doing lmao, this is furthest ive ever gotten
It checks if the amount of cards with a spade or club suit you have in hand is equal to the amount of cards held in hand. 0 equals 0, so it triggers.
7 pluto is what you need to get it goin
that being said keep playing 4oak until high card is a high enough level
ok i will do ty
maybe even switch to 5oak or flush 5? i donāt know how much thatād tank score
What stake do you do to unlock the 26 soade 26 heart deck?
Green?
. it is just "win on black deck" so it has to be white
i feel i should get rid of ancient joker seeing as my deck is still got random cards in
and swap it out for sock?
ancient keeps hitting the wrong suits
yeah for the moment swap ancient with sock
š
still bp mime?
Negative Mr bones, nice insurance ig
Oh ok thanks
I just won 3 gold stakes in a row for the first time
how do i have 144 hours in this game and im still awful
rippp
it takes more time, it definitely took me more time than that
High card level 90 with 66 held plutos, w
Hlo guys I have to show u something??
i just dont know like what i even need to do to be improving if that makes sense
theres no way to measure if im getting better
Go for achievements
the first thing I did was try to unlock all the jokers
did you do that yet
i have done that yes
ok good
all unlocks actually not just jokers
Iād be very surprised if you hadnāt unlocked everything else before the jokers
I like watching players like roffle play and examine what they do and their thought processes, I especially enjoy roffle because he plays really quickly like I do so for that it's just personal preference. I recommend you find a content creator to watch and see what decisions they make in their runs
the issue is higher stakes, ill replay them hundreds of times then only win when i get super lucky so its not even satisfying
liquidation and illusion was after
and antimatter
Iām just going off of my own experiences and advice from here lol
I discovered antimatter really quickly, I knew there had to be something great for the blank voucher
this is just what helped me a lot, so i'm speaking only from personal experience
Why does card sharp only show up towards the end of runs
this was a fun run
i try to but it seems obvious there then i play and keep losing, when i watch their runs it doesnt feel like id do anything different but im probably just dumb
no it just takes more time and persistence
i guess its just a little discouraging right now
I understand
but i guess i got past the difficulty curve of isaac i just have to do the same here
Black Death
weird to have a photochad run that relies more on absurd chips build up than xmult, though. would be crazy if I landed BP or BS
yep you'll reach an event horizon where it starts to largely make sense, just with time
do I buy Cavendish? if so, which joker should I sell
on which J should i use my brainstorm on ?
YES, another invisible joker
first turn use it on trading card, and on scoring turn use it one hanging chad
nvm you cant use brainstorm on trading card lol
yea
What is aincient ir baron doing here
are you going for a high score? Or just ante 8
woah
Id sell aincient and hope for yorick
yea
I'd drop baron
and perkeo and trib are good too
It has no synergy with ur other jokers
I hate Bloodstone
You have some kings already but not enough to justify a baron run
getting mixed opinions here lol
But aincient is a 1/4 every round
You can maybe pivot in the future if circumstance allows but id drop baron for the soul
most useful baron:
Baron is consistent in its scoring
It still doesn't fit
wat
baron is homosexual
lol
Well honestly you have a bit of a weird setup rn idk why u went so hard on clubs
Now you wont worry about clubs debuffed!
???????
you have an ancient joker
what the fuck are you doing
ohhh
it doesn't care what your deck looks like
i thought if u had 1 suit it would stay on it
nah
makes sense now
its not like castle or idol
yeah sorry
Which did you kill for chicot?
E113 WHAT WHAT WHAT
im so dead
Yea ancient joker dreams are gone. I didnt even realize ur deck was all clubs
Bru š š š
Just drop chicot for now and wait for blueprint or showman then just dedicate this build to photochad
Don't give up its still a good run
Atleast ur not dead to Plant XD
should I get Mime ?
Why
my hand size is shit tho, like 5-6 lmao
tons of enhanced Kings
Never too late to pivot to a Baron Mime build š„
seems more like idol build than baron with the business card and trading card
average roffle viewer
I barely watch that dude XD
"baron mime"
where is the baron
i got a sock, better to swap for barron or dusk?
With his income, it'll come soon maybe
not guaranteed
True...
does uh oh all 6 increase the chance of gros michel breaking
Yes
yes but more importantly cavendish :3
sock worth?
Why did you kill chicot
whats ur deck
End dusk
chicot is good but i find it hard looking for jokers which destroy cards
idk i thought it was good option
yes but don't get hung up on baron
photochad and baron do not mix at all
oh
probably take the sock over baron and maybe build towards idol
i get so distracted by all the fun builds and i try to combine them xD
yeah when you're building something like this you need to consider what you're doing
I love square man
either you use trib/idol/etc and play big hands or you play high card with baron to leave kings in your hand
Get him to 30k chips
Now
lmao that'll probably take actual years
is more often than not high card best choice? i never level it
Isn't the record 25k?
damn I had no idea it was possible to get one to that point
lemme guess, it was drspectred?
high card is necessary for baron because you want to leave as many cards in hand as possible
purr
bungler
and you need to increase the base mult a little for baron to actually be multiplying anything
I love Square Joker
Idk, tbh
me too
me when square joker
balatro university
square joker be bad challenge (impossible)
is red card + square joker a free win
it can be
probably
amazing combo for gold stake
its also very expensive
