[summer steppe]

but they have trib and socks and phto and other jokers that affect them

[twilit bronze]

Lucky cat for scaling x mult, just try to go lucky 2s

[heady narwhal]

oh you are going endless? in that case idk anything card trigger xmult

[summer steppe]

which ones are there

[twilit bronze]

Bloodstone idol ancient

Is that all

I think so

[summer steppe]

bloodstone and ancient?

[unborn onyx]

rip

[twilit bronze]

Yea those are “card trigger xmult” jokers

[summer steppe]

doesnt ancient pick a random suit regardless of the deck

[twilit bronze]

Yes

[summer steppe]

so bloodstone + ancient wouldnt be a very good synergy then

[twilit bronze]

Yea not really, unless you have wild cards

[summer steppe]

good point

i want lucky tho prob

[twilit bronze]

That’s fair

[summer steppe]

i lost..

i got so unlucky not a single 2 appeared

[twilit bronze]

Rip💔

[vocal rose]

bad synergy

[tired condor]

FUCK

I WANNA KMS

305E

WTF

[lost vault]

u still have another ante twin

[cursive crater]

goodluck getting serpent again

[lost vault]

gold cards

maybe...

[tired condor]

Fuck that

[tired condor]

I have 8k

[cursive crater]

oh

[tired condor]

And the voucher

[cursive crater]

suffer through another ante

you prolly woulde hit it if you didnt have 3 brainstorms

[dim elk]

gng what should i do?

[tired condor]

Augghhh

[dim elk]

should i replace the duo with campfire?

[vocal rose]

need more steels

3 brainstorms is wack tho

[cursive crater]

burnt joker goes

[dim elk]

but he my main source of levels

[cursive crater]

levels dont matter that late

[dim elk]

its only lvl 20 tho

i wanna get it to 30

[tired condor]

Lmao

[dim elk]

but okay

i mean it doesnt matter if i die, i already won

okay

so

is it a gamble worth taking?

i never got so far in a abandoned deck run so idk what im supposed to do at this point

[spark kernel]

Lucky me

[dim elk]

this prolly means ill have to swtich over to high cards

[dim elk]

lucky indeed

[spark kernel]

Now should i take the blueprint

[twilit bronze]

Yea

[late helm]

its called skill

[twilit bronze]

Might hurt econ for now tho

[brave goblet]

The pair problem is so real

[dim elk]

prolly

[dim elk]

holy skill

[cursive crater]

the pair situation just got crazy

[dim elk]

btw what is the pair problem?

im pretty new to balatro, only been playing for a month

[late helm]

burnt ante 1, bp ante 1 out of judgement, u scale pair like a goat and the chads just fall into your arms

[late helm]

what problem

[cursive crater]

pair dont have any problems

[dim elk]

from what you described its a solution

nah, i just assumed that the word situation assumed something negative

[twilit bronze]

Doc spectred made a video called that but the jist of it is a lot of the games aspects on higher stakes pushes you towards playing pairs instead of 5 card hands

[cursive crater]

i was just referencing moistcritikal video names lol

[dim elk]

i mean i spam flushes faster than children are working at the temu factory, but im slowly transition to pairs too ever since i passed blue stake

[twilit bronze]

That’s one of the points he makes in the video lol, the less discards makes 5 card hands often harder to draw

[dim elk]

btw can you patt your dog on my behalf, he seems like a real good boy

[wild merlin]

I JUST WON BLACK STAKE DIFFICULTY

[dim elk]

congrats

[wild merlin]

How to unlock the deck w 26 spades and 26 hearts?

[dim elk]

i think you need to beat red stake, the one after black

[tardy cosmos]

Yipeee

[cursive crater]

win a round on blue stake i think

[tardy cosmos]

I died though

Is this a good first naneinf run

Wait no

What

Like first naneinf try

[vocal rose]

yeah

[cursive crater]

got the spirit for it

[tardy cosmos]

if i got a red seal i wouldve gotten e40 probably

[vocal rose]

getting antimatter ecto and retcon is rough

[dim elk]

its good for beginners, because of flushes so you should unlock it, and DO NOT TRUST BLOODSTONE

[tardy cosmos]

Yeeeees

[vocal rose]

for me it’s ecto

I can’t find him to save my life

[cursive crater]

you also need dna

[late helm]

almmmost there

[tardy cosmos]

I found dna 6 times LOL

[vocal rose]

that’s after you get your extra joker slots

[tardy cosmos]

But no space

[cursive crater]

i meannnnn you can get it nat :)

[dim elk]

i havent gotten dna since last wekk 😥

[cursive crater]

negative i mean

[vocal rose]

natty

[dim elk]

btw can we all agree murphys law is most observable with anhk and bloodstone?

like the probabilities just get skewed

[late helm]

wheel of fortune

[dim elk]

hold up, forgot eight ball

[cursive crater]

doesnt apply to glass cards

[dim elk]

try telling that to my transistors 😭

[cursive crater]

we got transistors in balatro now?

[dim elk]

nah, just that transistor are computer bs and they do sum shi dont understand

[dreamy creek]

pluh

[dim elk]

so like ig they make the decision to break or not break the glass cards

[vagrant pike]

tuff

[orchid peak]

I been trying for an hour to beat red deck blue stake this is hell I even got 2 eternal blueprint on one of my run but it doesn't matter since there is no x multiplier jokers I refreshed til my money all gone

[vagrant pike]

wsp guys

[dim elk]

wsp azure

[cursive crater]

yo

[tardy cosmos]

This server is much too chill compared to other game communities

[vagrant pike]

hi guys

[vagrant pike]

yea its been really nice

but most of the time idk what yall are saying cuz im not well versed in balatro

[dim elk]

dont worry, soon your brain will be as fried as ours

[vagrant pike]

lol

[dim elk]

it will scale with the amount of rounds you play

[cursive crater]

anybody got an idea for my problem

scroll a bit on #🎙・server-chat

[vagrant pike]

what's it related it to

alr

[dim elk]

lemme see

[vagrant pike]

oh

[cursive crater]

honestly at this point

im just going to keep this phone for the pure purpose of balatro

[vagrant pike]

yea thats best option

or like turn into your gaming phone or something

[spark kernel]

This cannot be a real game 😭 🙏

[cursive crater]

ccitbp- oh

[naive heath]

sux

[vocal rose]

ooooo joker

easy ante 1-2

blueprint bait

[serene forge]

who needs econ

[serene forge]

how did you get a second blue joker without blowman

[spark kernel]

This shop is bad as hell

[wary holly]

how to infer suits of cards? i wanna play a flush

it is suit ordered in the print

[fervent wolf]

First mistake is playing flushes on purple stake

[teal viper]

no real way to infer i think ur cooked

[wary holly]

i think the mistake was joker choice

[tranquil cedar]

smiley worth it trust

[wary holly]

i took the flush planet cuz satellite value

[brave goblet]

The -1 discard isn't as much of an issue imo as how so many jokers inherently reward pairs over 5 card hands

Which doc also pointed out

[woven spire]

im crine

[wary holly]

if u can survive the ante, worth it

[turbid jay]

burglar is worth it for pair run, right?

[primal dragon]

Is reopening the game to your last save considered cheating

[wary holly]

why would it?

[primal dragon]

Cus you can know which cards you will get, wheel triggers and shop predictions

[peak plinth]

Up to you

[primal dragon]

Do yall do it too tho

[peak plinth]

I be save scumming all the time

[primal dragon]

Real

[wary holly]

oh, so i consider it cheating. but its single player so f it. i didnt cuz i didnt know it was possible, but prob wont use this

[sleek pike]

I’m probably gonna get bashed for saying this but I love Vagabond. I know it’s probably really suboptimal, but it’s fun to me

[sleek pike]

I thought shops were seed based

[wary holly]

if u get credit card and then find a wraith afterwards, not suboptimal

[sleek pike]

I usually just use it the normal way lol

[placid shore]

so lucky yet unlucky

[wary holly]

fair lol its really fun of a mechanic

[cloud sinew]

@pale wolf im gonna go crazy

Michel died

[sleek pike]

Yay I’ve set up my first ever successful particle accelerator

[faint linden]

Playing around with Abandoned and got Ride the Bus from an Ante 1 Riff-Raff

[pale wolf]

loool

[faint linden]

Perkeo + Observatory? That's how I do particle accelerators

[sleek pike]

Is there another kind?

Well that’s the one I’m using then

[faint linden]

People have called Mime/Baron that as well

[sleek pike]

I wouldn’t call that a particle accelerator

[torpid shard]

its been a year since the last card art update. PLease mr thunk I need another

[brisk juniper]

Only these two bastards left and I will have C++

[sleek pike]

Really? Those two weren’t that bad for me

[brisk juniper]

Is there a play to Ancient Joker other than getting it early and building around it? I feel like if I already deck fix to certain suits before I find it, Ancient is dead in the water

[brisk juniper]

Glass Joker hates me, it never shows up even if I have glass in my deck

[serene forge]

every poll with sock is a skill check and people always fail

[sleek pike]

I’m far from experienced, what’s wrong with sock?

[sleek pike]

💔

[serene forge]

sock does nothing here

at most a few chips

it's not good

faceless is decent econ

[sleek pike]

Oh “at the beginning of the game” I missed that part

[serene forge]

it's hidden but

the scenario is

pick one of these to start on any deck and if you win an unseeded gold stake run with it you win 100 dollars

[sleek pike]

100 dollars for that? Free money heck yeah

Not free free but like not bad odds

[cursive crater]

because sock has higher potential while faceless is immediate money,having a sock at the start gives you a good direction to go and even if you dont gain much from it at the start it will pay back later

[sleek pike]

But based on the scenario they just described consistency is more important than potential

[serene forge]

potential for what

why would you not just take money

[vocal rose]

“potential” “pay back later” “good direction to go”

[serene forge]

literally potential man meme

[vocal rose]

the megumi of balatro 😭

if and but never is

[cursive crater]

i mean yeah

but megumis a bum

[vocal rose]

so is sock

[sleek pike]

Ew get out of my shop magic trick

[serene forge]

nah bloodstone works as intended

[sleek pike]

What 💔

[fervent wolf]

We crashed it

lmao

[alpine nest]

Why don't ppl try juggler glitch? It's easier to find than bean and will at least help u live

[sleek pike]

Baseball card based as flip, easily a top 5 joker imo

[fervent wolf]

yup

[alpine nest]

BBC is an amazing fucking joker

[sleek pike]

I recognized that since I first discovered it lol

[fervent wolf]

yup

[vocal rose]

idk about top 5

[sleek pike]

It is to me

[fervent wolf]

me neither

[vocal rose]

cool 🙂

[sleek pike]

Well actually no nvm

But still

[heady narwhal]

aside from tje fact that the hypothetical is about early game picks, s&b is just pretty useless on high stakes because there aren't many good face card jokers that trigger when a card is scored

[autumn goblet]

new pb

baron, throwback, and 4 mimes

was begging for a blueprint the whole time and i never got it lmao

[heady narwhal]

retriggering photograph once isn't worth a slot imo, smiley and scary are kind of shit , business card is pretty marginal value, triboulet is hard to find

[sleek pike]

Third time ever getting to ante 17, wish me luck

[autumn goblet]

good luck!

[twilit bronze]

Round 67 67 so funny

[twilit bronze]

Lowkey kinda true I feel like Chad kinda is just better on higher stakes

[wintry ice]

chad is universal and card modifiers are what you usually use retriggers for

[twilit bronze]

Yea Chad and gold seal goes crazy

[woven spire]

this was my pb from today, tried to naneinf but im ass lmao

[sleek pike]

Better than my pb

[woven spire]

it was filtered seed tho

[sleek pike]

Like filtered to get perkeo or like set seed?

[woven spire]

filtered for a blueprint

im trying to do it without legendaries

[twilit bronze]

Voucher luck can screw you over for sure

[woven spire]

it did lol

no antimatter in that run

[twilit bronze]

I did the same when I went for ante 39 but I just filtered for a perkeo

[woven spire]

with antimatter i would have naneinf for sure

[sleek pike]

I haven’t found an antimatter or ectoplasm for mine yet 💔

[sleek pike]

Do one like that rn lol

[woven spire]

spectral packs were giving me wraiths

with 7k bucks.

[woven spire]

ante 39 is crazy to me

[twilit bronze]

You are? Or are you telling me to do one 😭

[twilit bronze]

It’s mostly just getting perkeo and copy jokers early then good voucher luck, the baron mime part is generally repeatable

I was 40e short my first try

[woven spire]

did you do it on ghost?

[solid python]

thanks plant

[twilit bronze]

Nah on plasma

[woven spire]

i could prolly try that

idkkk

[twilit bronze]

Used perkeo and observatory instead of cryptids

[woven spire]

that seems harder

[twilit bronze]

It definitely takes some know how but I feel like it’s not too difficult

[orchid peak]

I'm still doing blue stake red deck i spent 3 hours doing this already it won't give the cards that I need even though I already copied the same cards and removed useless cards and it still doesn't give me the cards that I need

[woven spire]

Welcome to balatro

[gloomy vigil]

latro

<@&1133519078540185692>

[austere escarp]

ty

[gloomy vigil]

❤️

[orchid peak]

this is infuriating because last stakes we're easier even tho the difference is just -1 discard

[woven spire]

thats why blue stake is getting a rework

[cyan sparrow]

[cyan sparrow]

what is your favorite joker

[native cape]

rip run

[limpid gate]

Ughhhhhhhhhhh

[serene forge]

throwback thinks its on the team

[autumn goblet]

bro fr reached one single round higher than me lmao

[autumn goblet]

meh, copying the baron, so

[serene forge]

you did good

[fervent wolf]

Throwback can't copy

[serene forge]

nothing you can do if good vouchers don't exist

[autumn goblet]

wait am I tweaking?

was it not copying my baron?

[fervent wolf]

💀

[serene forge]

what

[honest grove]

so uh

[limpid gate]

What a start

[woven spire]

i agree lol

[serene forge]

dont choke

[tropic widget]

get this guy a 6th sense

[limpid gate]

Where the +multi though

[serene forge]

get this guy blue joker

you need scoring

[honest grove]

I will try my best

[serene forge]

plasma deck

[limpid gate]

TRUE!

[tropic widget]

get this guy blue joker and infinite illusions

[limpid gate]

Ykw I should play plasma

[autumn goblet]

wait are we dead ass cos im stupid xD

[limpid gate]

Ok nvm

[serene forge]

throwback is a joker that scales xmult when skipping

[fervent wolf]

Blueprint and Brainstorm copy

[cyan sparrow]

dood u were so close

[tropic widget]

plasma is 100% the best for high score runs

[fervent wolf]

No other jokers copy joker effects as a joker

[autumn goblet]

oh shoot wait yeah im

well i said i was stupid

[serene forge]

invisible jonkler

[autumn goblet]

for some reason I thoughht brainstorm was throwback then lmao

[honest grove]

I will keep yall updated, I have no idea if this is gonna go well

[lunar zealot]

oh i have the perfect image for that

[fervent wolf]

"As a joker"

[serene forge]

old blueprint

[limpid gate]

Ive been looking for invis all day because of a bug

[autumn goblet]

yeah that's about right xD

[serene forge]

buy terrario

[lunar zealot]

i dont like it

[fervent wolf]

No

[tropic widget]

jjk and balatro fans in a contest for who's the most illiterate

[serene forge]

says the minecraft player

[spiral hinge]

Hornet why are you very gay and lesbian

[tropic widget]

everyone is a minecraft player

[serene forge]

i felt like it

[spiral hinge]

Thats fair

[tropic widget]

also its so funny to me that you can copy the soda

[woven spire]

pretty sure localthunk just thought it was a funny feature no one would use

[tropic widget]

localthunk should've realised dr spectered exist

[woven spire]

he the only one that ive seen use that lmao

[tropic widget]

(ignoring the fact that a lot of the balances were influenced by dr)

[lunar zealot]

1 blocked message

[glad viper]

one message

[lunar zealot]

One thing

i dont know why

[vocal rose]

gay

[tropic widget]

saying that as if all balatro players arent gay

[fervent wolf]

I'm not

[glad viper]

im not gay

[tropic widget]

everyone is a lil gay

[autumn goblet]

I'm not gay I'm just polychrome

[junior horizon]

Man it feela like ive run out of cool seeds

Been browisng the seeds chat for an hour

[autumn goblet]

you could have my seed if you like

[junior horizon]

Cool but im taken

[autumn goblet]

damn

one day someone will want my seed

[lunar zealot]

use brainstorm mod

[slow iris]

buy Hytale

[heady narwhal]

my favorite way of finding cool seeds is unchecking the "seeded run" box

[autumn goblet]

incredible

my favourite way of finding cool seeds is buy losing early on so I never truly get to see if the seed was good

[solid python]

why did the game give me hanging chad right after i sold photo 😭

[serene forge]

game is rewarding you for making a good decision

[orchid peak]

I'm gonna change my strat

[brave goblet]

use the chad to talisman money and find the photo again

[orchid peak]

I just need to win til ante 8

[normal sparrow]

I love the AI YouTube for how much it messes up whatever Roffle is actually doing

[sudden river]

rental perishable egg

[cursive crater]

ANYTHING for the views

[slender creek]

how good is 2 credit cards 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[normal sparrow]

40$ of debt 😛😛😛

[junior horizon]

I got 7 mimes where the fuck is baron

[languid heron]

Buy 1 credit card to pay off þe oþer credit card! Its free money!

[normal sparrow]

Secret easter egg

[native cape]

not bad for ante 3...

[vagrant pike]

wait guys

whats the highest ante possible without mods

just curious

[languid heron]

39

[normal sparrow]

What's the deck like? Cause I wanna see how many wild cards there are for ancient

[vagrant pike]

thanks

[normal sparrow]

39

Game freaks out after that

[vagrant pike]

interesting

[native cape]

not great lmao

ancient didnt proc on that hit

[tired condor]

On da phone

[normal sparrow]

Ancient just being a fossil there

[tired condor]

Took like 4 hours

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[normal sparrow]

What did it even do to you?

[native cape]

its getting sold anyway, just found an invis

[normal sparrow]

I'm not used to so much light and its dark as hell in my room, the moment I opened Ur profile I just got flashbanged

[serene forge]

suck

[serene forge]

youre welcome for the yuri

[normal sparrow]

Like a light bomb

[normal sparrow]

It doesn't suck, you just need an oops

[native cape]

gold joker just vibin

[honest grove]

update on the run (yes I'm only on round 8)

[normal sparrow]

Golden is a goated Econ, but where the hell did the second trib come from

[native cape]

invis

like 2 mins ago

[serene forge]

so it sucks

[normal sparrow]

Yeah u did mention it

My bad

[native cape]

.

lol

tryna find chad now

[honest grove]

nice

[serene forge]

if you need one uncommon joker for a joker to be remotely usable it sucks

[junior horizon]

WHERE IS HE, WHERE IS BARON

[normal sparrow]

Well, you can't really say that bcs by that logic, a lot of jokers suck

[serene forge]

like what

[honest grove]

damn thats a nice run

[normal sparrow]

Mime.

[honest grove]

how'd you get two negative perkeos

[serene forge]

even if you get an oops with bloodstone that solves one of like four problems with it

[normal sparrow]

4?

[serene forge]

mime dupes blue seals and gold cards

strong joker if you have the foundation

[normal sparrow]

But it needs to be paired with something just liked bloodstone

Bloodstone just itself is fine, but when paired it's goated

[serene forge]

you're telling me that one gold card is as hard to find as a fucking oops

[shell dagger]

Bloodstone with oops still dies to the heart and has all the problems that flush builds have

[normal sparrow]

I don't have trouble finding oops man, maybe it's your econ

[shell dagger]

What stake are you playing on

[normal sparrow]

Idk man, I've had some very decent runs with bloodstone and flush fives

[normal sparrow]

I mostly play white stakes for the scores so I'm not very informed with higher stakes

[serene forge]

ad hominem

[serene forge]

explains it

[normal sparrow]

Maybe that's why it must be worse

[lunar zealot]

Ello ello

[shell dagger]

maybe not a good idea to say someone has bad econ when you’re playing on the easiest difficulty

[lunar zealot]

Oh the train is here

[normal sparrow]

I like to see scores go bazinga

[normal sparrow]

Fair enough

[silent topaz]

i won my first gold stake with oops + bloodstone its good if you have base mult

[serene forge]

lmaoooooo

[lunar zealot]

it's. fine.

bloodstone is usable with oops

[shell dagger]

i also won my first gold stake run with bloodstone in the joker roster but it was a pair build and the bloodstone was an early eternal

and i was a chud 14 months ago

[lunar zealot]

My first gold stake run was with double gay stencil

[normal sparrow]

Would invis joker count as a slot occupied for stencil?

[shell dagger]

Yes

[normal sparrow]

Damn

I gotta play more balatro man

[serene forge]

I hate Baron

[normal sparrow]

So you dislike scoring

What jokers do you like?

[serene forge]

no i love scoring

that's why i dislike baron

[serene forge]

red card

[normal sparrow]

You like skipping stuff?

[serene forge]

why not

most packs are bricks anyway

maybe not bricks but worth less than 3 mult

[tranquil steppe]

Red card is a trap

[normal sparrow]

I mean, buy a baffoon pack, do you just skip or take a random joker and sell it after?

[leaden mountain]

Which joker would be the least detrimental to sell?

[normal sparrow]

Blue joker?

[tranquil steppe]

Blue probs

[serene forge]

it depends

[shell dagger]

We don’t know unless we know your hand levels

[tranquil steppe]

You should be good with mr nanners

[serene forge]

if it's garbage jokers that aren't useful then obviously take the 3 mult

they're also more likely to be garbage jokers that aren't useful on gold stake

[normal sparrow]

How hard is gold stake?

I've only reached black stake on ghost deck, I don't usually do a lot of run with higher stakes

[tranquil steppe]

Hard at first. Easy after playing over 100hrs (on certain decks). Some like black deck just suck ass

[shell dagger]

much harder than white stake but still very possible to win consistently

[normal sparrow]

I feel called out

[tranquil steppe]

Don’t. Gold is hard

[normal sparrow]

Btw where's ur pfp from?

[normal sparrow]

Nah, I just like white stake for the sake of my sanity

[dreamy creek]

i love flower pot

[normal sparrow]

And high score runs

I like the funny number getting bigger

[native cape]

huge shop

[normal sparrow]

And seeing jokers go

[tranquil steppe]

I can’t wait til I C++ and then I can finally go to white and blow my high score out of the water

[native cape]

what do i get rid of

[dreamy creek]

acrobat thinks bro is part of the team

[native cape]

for bp

[normal sparrow]

Shame it's holo

[native cape]

bros chillin

[dreamy creek]

bro is doing NOTHING

💀

[native cape]

lmao

hes like the little brother

just wants to be included

[dreamy creek]

sell his ahh right away

[tranquil steppe]

Killllll him

Killlll the acrobat

[normal sparrow]

Don't talk my boy acrobat like that

I've had some saves cause of him

[native cape]

🙁

poor guy

[tranquil steppe]

I do love me some acrobat though fr fr

[native cape]

only e17 😭

thought it would be higher tbh

[normal sparrow]

Use brainstorm and blueprint on one of the tribs to see how high Ur scoring gets

Or even on both

That'll help with scoring (I think)

[serene forge]

nice

[native cape]

rather than sock?

[lunar zealot]

I love uncommon jokers

[serene forge]

i love my gf

[lunar zealot]

your girlfriend is an uncommon?

[serene forge]

no she's legendary

[lunar zealot]

What's her effect

[native cape]

wuts best joker order then? idk what im doing

im playing 4 of a kind of lucky kings

[lunar zealot]

blueprint on trib brainstorm on sock

[native cape]

oke ty

[lunar zealot]

Fork.

[serene forge]

hi

[normal sparrow]

Wait why 4ofakind?

[native cape]

idk

my high card isnt lvled

[normal sparrow]

Why not go for 5 of a kind of flush fives? They scale better then 4 I think

[native cape]

so its poo

[native cape]

my hand size is 5 and my deck isnt trimmed enough

[shell dagger]

Animal well

[normal sparrow]

Fair

[native cape]

i havent found a dejavu yet D;

or however tf u spell it

[normal sparrow]

I knew Ive seen it from somewhere, it's a puzzle game right?

[shell dagger]

puzzle metroidvania

it’s pretty cute

[normal sparrow]

I've never played it before but the art style seems nice af

[native cape]

every time i see an ankh the intrusive thoughts try to take over

[wary holly]

What is the GOAT Balatro player and GOAT Balatro run? And why

[native cape]

this is my new pb for high score 😄

i dont think im going to last much longer without dejavu tho

[vital geyser]

Outstanding negative tag pull

[tranquil steppe]

Who is What?

[tranquil steppe]

Cyber boiiiii

[vital geyser]

Theyre asking who the best player is

[tranquil steppe]

What is the GOAT player

I love What

He’s the best

[dapper anchor]

Very fun, could probably have gotten higher if I wasn’t on Purple stake

Actually a point where I sold a Perkeo for brainstorm

[tranquil steppe]

You do what you gotta do

[orchid peak]

I just found out that I can actually skip all the process and just unlock all the decks

I wanna try it once

[lunar zealot]

drspectred

[pine dragon]

Looks inside

[last path]

anaglyh gold stake 'win'. only 2 decks left to gold stake

also anaglyh deck moment completely intended

LOL

[pine dragon]

Money :3

[last path]

the moment i click cash out bull shows up

[pine dragon]

Nice

[last path]

now stuntman is easily replaceable lol

[knotty otter]

Damn, what did you do to get so many marks?

[last path]

saved up all the double tags for the end. skipped ante 8 small blind. and got bones in the shop after the big blind

which was investment as you can see

[knotty otter]

Wow

[pine dragon]

Señor Huessos

[lunar zealot]

wow if only you got the money before ante 8

strokes chin

[last path]

and i could beat any other boss blind besides vv.

[pine dragon]

But that's less money

[lunar zealot]

but then they would have actually beaten vv without bones

i love money but i love beating vv more

[last path]

amber acord pretty easy if i know where the to do lists were (yes i ankh'd a poly to do list but had to sell it for the bones). verdant leaf is LOL. crimson heart is just hit one of the econ jokers. and cerulean bell is also LOL

[pine dragon]

But

But

Muhknee

[pine dragon]

Shuffle me jimbos?!

[last path]

fml. the ante 10 boss blind is the wall if life couldn't be any harder. if i'm dying. i'm dying rich said every billionaire ever

[native cape]

this has good potential

[last path]

now just get an ecto and dump everything into a high card or pair build

[native cape]

and ankhs

[last path]

does ankh copy negative?

never tried to do it before so i wouldn't know

[native cape]

no but it can copy stencil

then i get more ecto

[last path]

i think 2 or 3 ecto is the max. 2 if you want a pair build, 3 if you want to be forced in a high card build

[native cape]

ill hunt for invis then

my invis joker luck sucks sadly

[hybrid tendon]

Balatrodle in 3

[serene forge]

balatrodle in 3

[earnest maple]

balatronix

[serene forge]

evil and intimidating crimson heart

[fair sapphire]

sigh

[lunar zealot]

Don't do it

[fair sapphire]

i wanna take it but ik ima mess it up

[fair sapphire]

u don’t think so

[serene forge]

no

[brazen pebble]

what do i swap

[white tendon]

I have started playing again after some time, recently had a ante 16 run, that could have been 17 if I didnt roll boss, but today I did something better xd

even skipped on legendary (maybe could have for collection, but wouldnt achieve 5 cards deck xd and I want to gold every joker anyway so dont need it now)

[white tendon]

prob trousers (funny out of context xd)

[serene forge]

photograph

also can i ask why you rerolled so hard without... picking up the reroll voucher

[unborn cliff]

trousers

[neon jackal]

wdf acrobat doing in there 😭

[neon jackal]

face card one i forgot the name

[brazen pebble]

im not that smart

[twilit bronze]

I be doing that too 😭

[gusty sage]

i got 4 fingers and shortcut im going crazy lmao lets see if i can finally beat gold stake 😭 😭

nope i got fucked

[prisma oak]

random seed i found

[astral mist]

Hot take: Blueprint is overrated. Way too many runs die because people tunnel-vision it instead of just building solid econ.

[earnest maple]

How do I explain this to my friends

[astral mist]

you put it in the modding channel

[earnest maple]

SHOOT

[earnest maple]

Sorry

[prisma oak]

This run is getting carried by it

[peak plinth]

Ante 1 bloodstone😮

[fervent wolf]

Burglar

[urban heath]

Is this good😬

[white tendon]

Crazy, hope you win, I had ante 1 flush five (cause I bought two -1 ante xd) and like +20 on erosion

[woeful widget]

yo tryna hit $400

any tips?

[serene forge]

burglar

[junior cave]

Anaglyph Deck with a late game Investment or Economy Tag will get you the $400+.

[woeful widget]

highkenuinely how do you get that deck again

which stake

im still completing base game

[junior cave]

I believe it was beating Black Stake

[woeful widget]

oh mk ty

[junior cave]

Locked Decks will tell you what's required to unlock

[woeful widget]

alr ty

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[lunar zealot]

if given the choice, drop ff

you never need both

[marsh vine]

what happens to the idol if there are no playing cards in deck? (i.e. all stone)

[serene forge]

defaults to ace of spades

[marsh vine]

shame
thanks

[peak plinth]

😩

Lmao

[thorny pebble]

spaceman

[gusty sage]

i lost to the needle rip

[thorny pebble]

classic

[iron junco]

The serpentine is probably more benificial than it is harmful

discards allow you to generate free extra cards

[thorny pebble]

serpent feels like it was made to be detrimental to a non pair meta

[junior cave]

Even then, you can still take advantage of the effect to construct the big hand

[weak relic]

Pickup burger and find a grimbo/rtb/supernova

[junior cave]

Since big hands can beat the score in one or two shots at most

[weak relic]

A more consistent way to win

[agile pebble]

what a run I'm having

[sleek valley]

Why is it that runs that have no endless potential arr still hela fun? "Well, at least it wins the run with the stupidest build ever"

[agile pebble]

because you win

[thorny pebble]

most gold stake run ever

[agile pebble]

it's red stake unfortunately

[thorny pebble]

depending on your levels just look out for the eye and you win

[agile pebble]

I have like zero levels

I just win with high card

if I get too much I will not get to use all myu hands in green joker u see

[thorny pebble]

yeah the eye gonna get u possibly

or not

[agile pebble]

I'll just sell the bruglars although it'll hurt

I win with a pair

basically

also wait the eye is

[urban heath]

For what reason have you played high card 91 times 😭😭

[brave goblet]

Pog rough gem pog

[agile pebble]

the reason is a little bit up in the chat

[agile pebble]

I was thinking about another boss

[ivory portal]

I hate this game

I hate hate hate this game

[urban heath]

Like 700 hands

Is what you're saying

[agile pebble]

credit card in bufoon pack

[thorny pebble]

credit card in the buffon pack

[thorny pebble]

what was it

[ivory portal]

Wdym

First shop

[agile pebble]

the buffon

oon

[ivory portal]

The joker that repleaces discard with hand

I just started new run

[agile pebble]

ante 7 is the club

also yeah I jsut win in a pair and two pair so it wouldn't have mattered

[thorny pebble]

oh no the club

dead

[agile pebble]

yeah I don't think I'll pass it

[pine dragon]

I'm seed hunting it

I'm seed hunting it so good rn

[pine dragon]

Most cursed ace distribution

[thorny pebble]

clubs are the best ante 8 suit i think

[agile pebble]

no cloud 9, there's literally no reason I did that

[thorny pebble]

not applicable here but in general

[pine dragon]

Suits don't matter really

[agile pebble]

I just kinda wanted to have nines

low stakes are so funny

[acoustic kettle]

Black suits are better

[thorny pebble]

blackboard, seeing double, onyx agate early

[acoustic kettle]

I'd say spades are better

[pine dragon]

Racist

[agile pebble]

hearts is probably the best one if we're being honest

[thorny pebble]

late game mayve

[acoustic kettle]

It's the worst one

[pine dragon]

Why's that

[thorny pebble]

certainly not ante 8

[acoustic kettle]

Black suits have blackboard

[agile pebble]

mainly because bloodstone but like you only take that in case of oops all sixes or you die because that shit joker never works

[pine dragon]

So basically

It isn't

You admitted yourself it's bad

[agile pebble]

50 chips is also like not that good

[acoustic kettle]

Rough gem is decent

[acoustic kettle]

It is great

[agile pebble]

ok it's kinda good I probably overlooked it

[pine dragon]

200 chips per hand

[acoustic kettle]

50 chips is a lot

[pine dragon]

Pretty good

[agile pebble]

yeah

with pairs is still 100 which is nice

[pine dragon]

Bro loses their mind when they get foil

[thorny pebble]

what

[pine dragon]

/j

[wary zodiac]

type of shit that happens when you sit down to play a casual run

[pine dragon]

Foil is probably the best edition

Lol

[thorny pebble]

damn good luck

[agile pebble]

the only good jokers are the ones I have gold sticker on them

like superposition

[thorny pebble]

i think by the time editions actually matter you may actually want polychrome for a bigger hand

[pine dragon]

Superposition is bad

[agile pebble]

superposition my goat

I've used it like 5 times

[thorny pebble]

pooperposition

[pine dragon]

Least common rank to appear in a straight

In the entire game

Btw

[agile pebble]

superpostion gives value to abstract joker

it's powerful

[pine dragon]

Superposition would be good if it was a 7 or 8 required

[agile pebble]

vampire also really strong

[pine dragon]

Probably

[agile pebble]

I have to say my one gold stake win was so weird

[junior cave]

I keep thinking Vampire is Rare

[pine dragon]

Vampire is ass

[ivory portal]

What do I give up here

[agile pebble]

it took me like 3 tries which was meh but the win was so fricking funny it was worth it

[pine dragon]

It's worthless without mask

[junior cave]

It's always the most bizarre builds that win Gold Stake I swear

[ivory portal]

Photograph I feel

Gotta go

[agile pebble]

yeah it's like cursed build

like idk why but scaling jokers just don't want to appear to you gotta do some weird stuff

[pine dragon]

Pair two pair 3 oak

[thorny pebble]

whats the flush level

because if its not 1 give up droll joker

[pine dragon]

He has feelings

You can't just say that about him

[ivory portal]

2

[agile pebble]

yeah we need to know base mult maybe the photograph is doing nothing

[thorny pebble]

its literally every good pair build

[ivory portal]

But I need the flush joker

For 10 mult

[thorny pebble]

what hand are you playing

[agile pebble]

I'd sell photograph

[pine dragon]

Don't forget about two pair

The goat

[thorny pebble]

i just assumed it was flushes ig

[weak relic]

Or vagabond

[ivory portal]

Can't get a single flush lol

[pine dragon]

Vaga is better without vamp imo

[thorny pebble]

the holographic cant be copied so its really like a 1.5x if you need it for score

[thorny pebble]

i guess i wouldve said business card if I had more info

[ivory portal]

Goated riffraff 😭😭

[agile pebble]

this is why pair better

[pine dragon]

But what if he needed business

[ivory portal]

Yeahhh

[ivory portal]

I wasn't upgrading any hands

Just played whatever

And relied on the holographic

[thorny pebble]

they were already at interest cap

[ivory portal]

And foil

[thorny pebble]

they need to stay alove

[ivory portal]

Yeah I should've sold

Business

I'm too greedy

[pine dragon]

He could have called the CEO

Partnered with them

[ivory portal]

I would've had to sell for invisible anyway

[agile pebble]

btw I'm kinda boring of scaling green joker

I think I'll just skip blinds

[thorny pebble]

yeah just win atp

[pine dragon]

Bro's trying to die

[thorny pebble]

just dont get vesseled

[agile pebble]

bro i have 116 mult in green joker

[pine dragon]

Pathetic

[agile pebble]

I win with all the high cards I'm playing

[thorny pebble]

and like 11 hands too

[agile pebble]

14 hands

[thorny pebble]

shit

thats a lot of hands

[pine dragon]

Your green joker isn't big enough

[agile pebble]

what is a big green joker in your opinion

[thorny pebble]

bro theyre ragebaiting you

[pine dragon]

Grimbo -> Greedbo

His greed consumes him at such size

[agile pebble]

omg negative supernova

playing three of a kind might be the move to not win too early

[cosmic sun]

no

🦅

[lunar zealot]

What the shit

[agile pebble]

average low stake build I fear

guys what should I play I can't decide

[pine dragon]

I sure hate using my enhancements to win why don't I take a pathetic amount of X mult instead

[blissful fog]

High card trust

[cosmic sun]

the best enhancements are devils which get eaten towards ante 8 and the rest that are usually niche or poop are now food for vampire

[pine dragon]

Me when I lie

[manic zealot]

interesting first pack

[cosmic sun]

Me when I gold streak

[thorny pebble]

truth

[thorny pebble]

whats the streak on

[cosmic sun]

0 cause I THREW

[pine dragon]

Sharp W

[thorny pebble]

i would take card sharp but you better look for eye protection

[thorny pebble]

whats your best streak

[cosmic sun]

5

[manic zealot]

true but I took the baseball card actually

hexed

[thorny pebble]

nice

[junior cave]

I swear, every time I pick up Card Sharp, the Eye awaits.

[cosmic sun]

Maybe no eye this time

[fervent wolf]

W

[manic zealot]

this is me but for the Club boss whenever I take seeing double

[cosmic sun]

Or you get something that kills eye anyway

[manic zealot]

like glass

[fervent wolf]

The Sun kills the eye

[ivory portal]

WHAT IS MY LUCK OMFGGGG

IM DONE

[thorny pebble]

chigoat spotted

[acoustic kettle]

Chigoat

[pine dragon]

Give me some luck so I can find early Perkeo Aura in a Baron Mime seed

[agile pebble]

guys am I unlucky with legendaries

[ivory portal]

🫩🫩🫩🫩

[ivory portal]

what’s that again

[thorny pebble]

dont slander chigoat

[pine dragon]

The worst legendary is still a good legendary

Remember that

[agile pebble]

triboulet

[ivory portal]

It's mostly

Not helpful

[agile pebble]

I think it does something with face cards

idk I've never used it

[pine dragon]

You'd be surprised

[ivory portal]

King and queem

[agile pebble]

chicot is good value

[ivory portal]

X2 mult

[ivory portal]

How

[agile pebble]

bosses are easier

[manic zealot]

if I took card sharp I think I would've died here

[blissful fog]

2x for every king or queen played

[pine dragon]

Chicot is the worst legendary but it's still an incredibly good Joker

[agile pebble]

so an idol but better cause less deck fixing

kinda boring

[tacit stream]

Trib was basically "2 Photo in 1 slot" for me when I gold sticker it.

[blissful fog]

Yep

[pine dragon]

Trib relates to his lore

The legendaries are based on real people

[blissful fog]

For easier high score runs, trib is better

Idol is a pain in the ass to get online

[agile pebble]

did triboulet die because it doesn't appear

(I'm joking)

[pine dragon]

He died a long time ago

He was around in the middle ages

[tacit stream]

of ||old age||

[acoustic kettle]

Triboulet can stay dead and not appear from my souls

[agile pebble]

I don't think I've ever properly had an idol deck

mainly because I basically do no inf

endless it's called

not inf

[blissful fog]

I had a few runs but man they're painful

[pine dragon]

I think Trib was like

Respected by nobility or something

[agile pebble]

also these two are like impossible to get

[tacit stream]

I did use idol for its gold sticker, it's kinda winmore at that point though.
(when you trimmed yellow deck down to 13 aces and nothing else at ante 8)

[acoustic kettle]

Just play plasma

And full skip

[pine dragon]

Idol is silly

[agile pebble]

I don't wanna lose my win streak tho

actually idk what's at rn

[pine dragon]

I need to study their lore again

[blissful fog]

You can check at the stats

[pine dragon]

But all the legendaries were based on real people

[thorny pebble]

plasma stuntman reset farm full skip

[agile pebble]

ok my current is 2 so idc

I'll do full skip plasma

[pine dragon]

Unsurprisingly

They're based on court jesters

I know I know shocking

[limpid gate]

POV: The showman pops off

[agile pebble]

damn

common jokers but still

[pine dragon]

You put glass on the wrong card

[limpid gate]

The glass was already there

[pine dragon]

Glass goes on non faces for plant protection

[thorny pebble]

photaphotochadchadchad

[pine dragon]

Oh mb

[limpid gate]

Allg

[agile pebble]

anyways how do u play plasma again because I don't remember anything about it

[pine dragon]

Go off king

[limpid gate]

But also I think I already defeated plant

so cant even appear rn

[pine dragon]

Basedds

[agile pebble]

I think I won every run minus one when I went for plasma blue stake

[thorny pebble]

it adds your chips and mult together, splits it in half, and then squares that number

[pine dragon]

Free win

[agile pebble]

so I don't remember much

[pine dragon]

Would be a free winnon gold stake too

Atp

[agile pebble]

I see

[limpid gate]

True, but I was just trying to find invis joker for a bug I found

[ivory portal]

Man why are there customers

I come to work to play balatro

Not do my job

[limpid gate]

but the game is hiding it from me (its been like 10+ at this point with no invis)

[thorny pebble]

in short chips are good early because they give higher raw numbers

[pine dragon]

Chips are the final score don't worry about it fr

There's different times when chips are worth vs mult uh

It involves numbers

[agile pebble]

did I just win

[thorny pebble]

lowkey yes

[manic zealot]

you just blessed my shop

[agile pebble]

square + arrowhead is crazy

[glad viper]

can i get a blessing

[agile pebble]

no

[glad viper]

🥺

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[manic zealot]

uhhhhh canio

[thorny pebble]

squarrowhead

[agile pebble]

sad square won't scale much since I'm doing full skip

sure

bro am I genuenely gonna win my first full skip run

this is crazy

btw I've skipped the spade boss

so no worries in that

yeah 200k wins with white I should be good

[ivory portal]

HAHAHAHA

NVM

I LOVE CHICOT

[agile pebble]

what is this luck bro

[glad viper]

chicot js the best joker

[pine dragon]

Perishable scholar

So sad

[pine dragon]

The overglaze is insane

[manic zealot]

the run rn

[ivory portal]

Yeah nvm

Run is over

😭

[glad viper]

why do yall even hate chicot 💔

[pine dragon]

I don't hate Chicot

[ivory portal]

I don't love it either

[pine dragon]

Chicot is a really strong joker

"the best" is crazy tho

[acoustic kettle]

My favorite xmult

[manic zealot]

its effect is just boring compared to the other legendaries, I think that's part of it

[obsidian swallow]

LET'S GOOOOOO

[pine dragon]

It's also weaker than the others

It's still a great joker and better than almost everything else in the game

However

[acoustic kettle]

It is stronger than triboulet

[agile pebble]

I did it

[manic zealot]

...

[pine dragon]

Trib does more most of the time

For you

Chicot really doesn't do much but he's the best at what he does do

[agile pebble]

didn't even lose my winstreak

[acoustic kettle]

Trib is so build dependent

[astral mist]

hot take but i think perkeo is worse than trib

[pine dragon]

Yeah no

[manic zealot]

it's more situational

[pine dragon]

Ban this guy

[manic zealot]

lol

[acoustic kettle]

Trib is just a photochad

[agile pebble]

I think I prefer value but also I've never played with trib so idk

[pine dragon]

... No

[agile pebble]

I like money more than score

[pine dragon]

Not quite

[agile pebble]

and deck fixing

[astral mist]

Perkeo literally wins by avoiding the game power ≠ good design.

[manic zealot]

trib is basically an always online idol

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[lost vault]

vagabond is just an 8ball

[pine dragon]

The legendaries aren't designed to be balanced at all tho?

[lost vault]

ancient joker is just a bloodstone

[pine dragon]

They're meant to be completely game warping

[acoustic kettle]

The worst hit from soul is a triboulet honestly

[lost vault]

if thats the case then why arent they

theyre just strong as heck

[pine dragon]

They are
