[shell dagger]

Opening a small arcana pack, it’s a 1-(19/22)^3 = 0.356 chance of seeing at least one death/fool/hangman with showman, and a 1-(17x16x15)/(20x19x18) = 0.4 chance of seeing at least one of those 3 with 2 blocking tarots

[tired condor]

Well devil and strenght id beg to differ

[shell dagger]

That’s a substantial decrease for showman

[tired condor]

There are alot of times i would not grab either

[shell dagger]

Getting the first good tarot card is much more important

[heady narwhal]

why would you ever not grab devil

[tired condor]

Yes hermit and temperance are desired

[heady narwhal]

it's literally free

[tired condor]

Ehh

[shell dagger]

So showman’s ability to get the second tarot faster doesn’t matter bc it’s a rare scenario in which case you’re likely already winning

[wintry ice]

well what would make you object to getting 3$ extra per round essentially for free and making setting up 4oak and strengthening rebate easier?

[tired condor]

Lack of space

[wintry ice]

lack of space where?

[heady narwhal]

doesn't usually come up

[tired condor]

Fine devil is desirable

[wintry ice]

the whole point of tarot blocking is that you don't want the tarots you're holding

[tired condor]

Im to tired for this shit

[woven spire]

2nd life card

[wintry ice]

turns the right card into the left card

[frank grove]

This was my run on this seed.

[unborn cliff]

Mrs. Marrow

[keen pilot]

Okay, um
Would it be too silly to keep Chicot around for the Manacle glitch? xP

[unborn cliff]

now thats ambition

[frank grove]

you need multiple chicots

[modern panther]

Oh, brother

[visual turtle]

2 enternal blackboard 0_0

[frank grove]

yeah

and i won with two pair as well

its simples !

and this was my deck at the end

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[keen pilot]

ik, but I mean
With money surely I'll find an invis and it'll copy exactly Chicot, right? :D
I totally won't land the ecto on Chicot and be stuck with it for the rest of the run!

[visual turtle]

Oooh ticket

[frank grove]

😭

[visual turtle]

Not getting it
I have like, 1 gold card

[woven spire]

i have 150 bucks worth of rerolls to look for something

[serene forge]

what the fuck

i mean it's fine

[frank grove]

thats a lot of baron 😭

[serene forge]

you don't want extra barons anyways

nat negative perkeo?

[woven spire]

filtered seed

[serene forge]

oh

[shell dagger]

It’s a good thing you levelled up 4oak for this scenario… right

[frank grove]

... right!!

[shell dagger]

Ah well baron can go

[woven spire]

i got luchador we good

but yeah i did not

lmao

[keen pilot]

Gambling

[vocal rose]

tf drunkard doing here

[keen pilot]

from a judgement

after using ecto

Oh my god, I keep forgetting about Chicot, despite deliberately choosing to keep him around
I was mentally preparing myself to go again The Mark, but then Chicot disabled the effect lol

[serene forge]

manacle bug incoming

[visual turtle]

Aaaaand i died

My straight is
level 1

[keen pilot]

Funnily enough, I got the Manacle right after getting Chicot

[woven spire]

only red seal ive seen

thanks localthunk.

[gentle island]

The one joker I dont want negative

[glad viper]

localthunk, more like

[visual turtle]

Aw

[fickle mesa]

okay to be fair, theres a lot of jokers you dont want negative

like about 30% of them on account of them being rentals

and honestly at this point you shouldnt be taking generic negatives anyways

[woven spire]

oh right, xXx_MLG___LocalThunk___1337__xXx

[lunar zealot]

localthunk/18/halfwolf/donttouchmytail

[gentle island]

well if you would buy them if they werent negative and negative does nothing except make them more expensive it is actually worse

[glad viper]

😭

[gentle island]

like on those 30% its useless as you wouldnt buy them anyway

on this its actually negative

[prisma jay]

Guys this is the new banana jomer

[frank grove]

😭

[glad viper]

uh

[visual turtle]

I
am
Getting

tired

also it's been like

[fickle mesa]

you wouldnt buy normal cola here either lol

[visual turtle]

3 or 4 hours

woah

[glad viper]

what is your username

[keen pilot]

Unlucky

[visual turtle]

No wait

It's been

6 hours

[fickle mesa]

i fear if you couldnt read my username before, me typing it out wouldnt do you much good

[visual turtle]

And no wins 💔

[glad viper]

i forgot the emojis

[frank grove]

you'll get there eventually it does take time

[balmy ocean]

Aw man that just sucks so much

[woven spire]

funny

[keen pilot]

NOOOOOO

Anyway

[visual turtle]

I think im going to play something else

[oak axle]

Guys anyone know how can j get this mime? I'm trying to redo my run but this mime won't appear on the shop-

[visual turtle]

Goodbye for now °~~~°

and thanks!

[gentle island]

Where did we go wrong

[woven spire]

worth?

[woven spire]

to the moon in green deck

[lost vault]

are you missing any uncommon unlocks

[lost vault]

we? this is all you gng

and how did you even get that joker

[rain vigil]

hey chat whats the play here? Im on gold stake, would it be better to keep riding the bus, or turtle bean and skip the big blind to try and fill my hand with kings and steel?

[fathom geyser]

Hey guys I have a question just out of curiousity. Basically if you have The Psychic boss and you play ex. 4 cards etc the game says that this is not allowed which is fine, but the played hand in poker hands tab display that the hand was infact played, is it a bug?

[rain vigil]

I think played and scored are different

[woven spire]

prolly a judgement in the skip

[rain vigil]

You "played" a pair for example, but the boss doesnt let it score the hand.

[vocal rose]

bruh why does it have to be negative

I would've taken a normal red card 💔

[oak axle]

I already unlocked em imo I just idk how did I got him that round now that I'm trying to rerun it

[wary zodiac]

last reroll was a baron, god has forsaken me

my deck isn't really setup for baron mime anyways

[candid scroll]

hello guys i use gentoo linux i am compiling the new balatro joker

[wary zodiac]

im trying to do an ace of spades idol build

[wary zodiac]

do you use gentoo to be cool or because you actually like the os

😭

[keen pilot]

Used the emperor with a showman, got excited.. then remembered I took the liquidation voucher..

[candid scroll]

neither because im autistic

[keen pilot]

Showman's doing a little trolling

[wary zodiac]

i used arch just because it was cool for a while but i came to appreciate a lot of the freedom it gives you

[candid scroll]

i use gentoo because

uhhhh

[wary zodiac]

wait thats so real 😭

[candid scroll]

uhhh

i dont know

[wary zodiac]

no thats a valid reason

[candid scroll]

i dont know why im torturing myself with

compiling every package

its pretty cool though my packages are like 2% smaller

[lost vault]

mreow:3

[candid scroll]

no seriously theyre tiny i have all of kde installed + a bunch of flatpak applications and my / is only using 20gb

[woven spire]

chat i lowk need help, whats the next move for a burglar nan

[shell dagger]

Ditch a baron for 6th sense

[woven spire]

finding a six is going to be hard lol

[limpid gate]

That feeling when

[glad viper]

what the

[woven spire]

oof

been there

[limpid gate]

I wish directors cut existed when I needed it

[vocal rose]

bean

[vale raven]

Do I buy this brainstorm and if so what should I replace? Trying to push this one as far into endless as I can.

[limpid gate]

Nope no bean shenanigans

[vocal rose]

chad goes

[shell dagger]

Baron goes

Chad can be used for econ

[limpid gate]

Not a bad point

[shell dagger]

And its only ante 5

So the deck likely isnt fixed for baron

[vocal rose]

im like 90% sure 4 baron procs will

do the trick

with a king or two

[shell dagger]

They still don’t need points rn

[woven spire]

im very sure it will

[vocal rose]

photo goes then

[vale raven]

Correct. I've got a high face card % and lots of glass/lucky but I haven't been lucky copying kings

[woven spire]

how many?

[vale raven]

Jeez only 5 so far felt like more ha

[waxen quartz]

on white stake ante 5...10k?

[woven spire]

yeahhh idk abt five

[vocal rose]

so where is your lucky cards

[vale raven]

Imma be honest I've been spamming this seed for a while so my runs are blending together in my mind sorry

This is the most promising joker setup I've had yet

[woven spire]

you could go all in with barons

look for strength asap

[unkempt terrace]

Balaro

[naive jolt]

Alr that's the end of my career guys
When teach agree with you it's that you followed well the class

[modern panther]

5 more, chat. Mad World, Inflation, Monolith, golden needle, and Jokerless

What hand should I play for jokerless

Because I don't think pairs are viable without jokers

[oak axle]

Imo can anyone tell me why when I redo my run mime won't appear

Did the same thing

??

[junior horizon]

Version differences maybe?

I wanna do a challenge run, smt funny, any suggestiond?

[shell dagger]

Is the second image the redo?

You already have mime

You aren’t going to see another one unless you get showman

[tawny verge]

i dont understamd what ur saying but the only thing i can think of is that maybe you skiped a shop?

[serene forge]

holy hell

[fringe warren]

"What you think a baron is just gonna come out of nowhere"

Maybe worst video quality oat

[tawny verge]

maybe?

[fringe warren]

My camera is allergic to focusing

You get the idea

And that's white stake plasma deck do baron mime actually does something

[tawny verge]

deck fixing?

@fringe warren

[oak axle]

It's my reference

[oak axle]

I didn't

The thing is I already Gotten Mime Before Blueprint-

On my 1st run

[fringe warren]

I had photochad so I was already fixing to face cards

And I got to ante 13 but died because of a lack of deck fixing

I had a good amount of kings just like 4 steel ones

Didn't see any dna the whole run

[oak axle]

Basically I was trying to say why I didn't got Mime before blueprint since in my 1st run I did get mime before print

[lapis lion]

i am SO fucked

[vale shale]

Oh my godddd language!

[gentle island]

Man I got greedy I wanted this to win so bad

[river kindle]

who do i buy

[gentle island]

the two hidden jokers are a blueprint and flashcard (the reroll one)

[gentle island]

ngl just reroll

[river kindle]

thanks

[keen pilot]

MY MONIS

[vocal rose]

both

[vocal rose]

ggs

[pallid ferry]

decisions, decisions….

[gentle island]

maybe a pair of kings?

[pallid ferry]

depends on the pair level i think

if they have any mercuries

[keen pilot]

nope, barely scoring e63
That's with a high card AND extra cards from DNA, which requires playing a high card

[pallid ferry]

looks like you’re gonna have to go broke.. 💔

[keen pilot]

Oh well

[lunar zealot]

gg no re

Girl where your retcon

did you not see a voucher tag

[twilit bronze]

Woww

[keen pilot]

In a voucher tag
If only there was one

Look at all those double tags

As always screwed over by the vouchers or rather the lack thereof

[manic zealot]

hello everyone

[keen pilot]

Hello Pluto

[manic zealot]

lmao

[heady narwhal]

standard pack

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[teal peak]

Why can’t I hit e77 with all silver

[hybrid tendon]

balatrodle in 3

[serene forge]

balatrodle in 3

[teal peak]

help pls im tryna hit nan

[hybrid tendon]

you need the serpent

boss blind

and hand vouchers

[median gust]

What’s better

[teal peak]

ik but i cant beat ante 24

[median gust]

I just started the run

[hybrid tendon]

hologram

[median gust]

Ty

[manic zealot]

the serpent appears on other antes

[hybrid tendon]

🫡

[manic zealot]

not ones on multiples of 8

[twilit bronze]

Wow a common joker being common

[serene forge]

handsize too small

[teal peak]

ye but i will win accidentally before ante 24

[manic zealot]

holy shit a hologram

[serene forge]

paintbrush and palette are required iirc

[teal peak]

yea nah im cooked then

[serene forge]

if you don't have it then only a negative troubadour can save you

[teal peak]

JUST got paintbrush

[keen pilot]

Hologram is a free win, so if you wanna win, I'd go hologram
But it limits your endless potential

[manic zealot]

speaking of free win

[serene forge]

hologram, but i would probably not double skip if not for investment tag

because now you're in ante 2 with nothing

[teal peak]

YOOOO THE PAINTBRUSH SAVED ME

I WENT FROM E74 to E84

YOOOOO

[hybrid tendon]

yeahh

that's more handsize for you

[median gust]

I was playing it risky bc I’ve already died like 3 times in a row and I was like trying to have fun with it

🤣

[serene forge]

fair

[teal peak]

is it possibel to get nan with burg if i still have some gold in my deck

[serene forge]

you need 44 steels in hand

so most of your cards in the deck should be steel

[stiff ore]

...what the fuck?

a nat negative encient joker?

umm okay ill take it im going flushes anyway

lol

[manic zealot]

that's fantastic

[teal peak]

no nan bro

[wary zodiac]

go away

[teal peak]

i didnt roll burg

[stiff ore]

and a $4 judgement bean

[full orbit]

Been tryna do high card decks

Any tips?

Only ever got to ante 10

[manic zealot]

high card is much easier to manage if you can reliably draw a blue seal

that's the number one way I know I can do high card

sometimes I can't though, it depends on what the game gives you

[full orbit]

Yeah

What are some good jokers

[manic zealot]

honestly, one I really like for early game help is ice cream

you can win high card easily with those and then use a blue seal in hand to get a Pluto card

[full orbit]

Pluto my goat

[manic zealot]

many chip jokers also are viable for this but I think ice cream deserves extra attention because of how early game viable it is

[full orbit]

I like banner too

[manic zealot]

that one's good too

[full orbit]

Good for early chips

[manic zealot]

but it falls off on higher difficulties when they take away your discard, it basically can do what ice cream does but less so

[stiff ore]

..well

[slim venture]

you might win the round but I'm not Sure

[stiff ore]

im not sure whats telling me that

what the fuck xD

[woven spire]

ecto might be useful but idk

[shell dagger]

unnecessary for naneinf

[ivory portal]

this is the dumbest setup ever

[full orbit]

Play better ig

[woven spire]

wouldnt it help?

[full orbit]

Ok buddy

It was just a joke 😞

Buddy getting a little too frustrated at a game

[woven spire]

i actually dont know how to feel abt ecto, but i think an extra joker slot would be incredibly useful

[full orbit]

I love ecto

My favourite spectral

Pairs really well with stencil joker too

[woven spire]

on a baron mime is risky

[full orbit]

Dang I wasn’t antagonizing, don’t even know you. Sorry man

[woven spire]

if you cant take a joke just leave lol

[full orbit]

I just got here 😭

[woven spire]

aint even worth an apology

[manic zealot]

it's not, dw about it

[woven spire]

da3m0nic i need u coaching me u da goat

[stiff ore]

smear joker really helps

[manic zealot]

wassup

[full orbit]

Ty bros

[ivory portal]

Balatro discord beef

😳😳

[full orbit]

No beef just someone getting sensitive at me 😭

[woven spire]

u the first one to not show any kindness, like i said, theres people here that likes to JOKE if you cant take or se smthn like that as a joke just leave

[manic zealot]

you need to chill out

we maybe need a mod in here for that, that's not acceptable behavior

[woven spire]

<@&1133519078540185692>

[manic zealot]

ty you read my mind

[full orbit]

Thanks mods

[woven spire]

thanks mods

[manic zealot]

ok cleb wassup

[trail sierra]

yeah thats not needed from a day 1 chatter'

[woven spire]

so, im tryna naneinf for the 1837893 time in 3 days and im going crazy

i lowk dont know how to feels abt ectos

[serene forge]

skill difference to that guy tbh

[woven spire]

liike here

[woven spire]

agreed

[manic zealot]

so what I would do here is sell the parking and then rip the ecto

depends on how many ectos you've used so far tho

[woven spire]

YES SIR 🫡

[woven spire]

just one

thx!

[manic zealot]

ok then you can do 1 more

np!

[stiff ore]

"and 3 more" xD

[manic zealot]

you don't typically want to use more than 2 ectos in a run

[woven spire]

2 negatives blueprints, liking this.

[manic zealot]

you've got a very good setup so far

[woven spire]

i was afraid to use it once lmao

[manic zealot]

it's necessary for naneinf most of the time to use ectos

[woven spire]

i got some red seals too

[manic zealot]

but I understand

ok excellent

ideally make them gold red seals

[woven spire]

closest ive got is e183

[woven spire]

ight, really apreciate the help

[manic zealot]

np! anytime

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[primal eagle]

discard a royal flush

[atomic trout]

Glitched Needle

[vocal rose]

how is it glitched

[stiff ore]

i got some fun jokes this run lol

[atomic trout]

It got robbed

Just 750 Hands to win

[atomic trout]

200,000 Chips per hand! 😨

[stiff ore]

tiem for more jokes

[foggy dome]

Proof that photochad comes back around. Always gamble. Keep gambling

I sold photochad and riff raff to ankh the brainstorm

Got another riff raff. Photochad

[woven spire]

i can do better riiight?

[primal epoch]

Photo. Chad.

[foggy dome]

There has been a severe lapse of judgement

[placid ridge]

Did Riff Raff generate photochad in a single round or did it generate the two in different rounds?

[foggy dome]

Second Riff raff actually only generated photo, i found chad in a shop

First riff raff generated both in 2 different rounds

[placid ridge]

Ah okay

[rapid glade]

is it worth replacing something for gros michel?

[vocal rose]

53 dollars

[stiff ore]

not a terrible set of negatives

[vocal rose]

do you have a glass card?

two brainstorms on chad will win you like

[foggy dome]

I lived

[vocal rose]

so easily

[foggy dome]

Thank you nat negative acrobat

[vocal rose]

cool

[vocal rose]

you should prepare next time so theres no risk

[woven spire]

oh, thanks invis.

[foggy dome]

Why would i do that when I can gamble

[stiff ore]

that was.. closer than id've liked

[foggy dome]

🎰

[vocal rose]

theres no gambling going on

you just lose if you dont prep

[vocal rose]

you didnt sell showman before the invis...?

[foggy dome]

I prepped by randomly finding a nat negative acrobat and boosting my pair level

[vocal rose]

ok

[woven spire]

i didnt.

[vocal rose]

why

[woven spire]

i got another tho

4 copy jonklers

no dna tho

[vocal rose]

replace showman with ticket or rebate for now

[woven spire]

i have 22 cards in the deck

[vocal rose]

.

[stiff ore]

well.. im not sure which joke order to go in.. but i also dont think itll matter

im thinking on putting chad first to try and proc the lucky card

[lyric falcon]

Hangingchad in the shop🥹🥹🥹

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[fallen siren]

I love the Duo Duo (Photochad & Certifigram)
2nd gold stake win 🔥

[thorn bear]

wow i love pulling a legendary joker on a blue stake black deck run, then winning and not unlocking the joker or the next stake on mobile :)

[manic zealot]

photochad jumpscare

[warped bear]

What’s the right choice for naninf push this is my ante one round two pack purple seal right or take the early red seal

[manic zealot]

for a naneinf push it would be the red seal fs

[thorn bear]

regardless id want to take the red seal lucky card

[manic zealot]

but for future packs prioritize purple and blue seals after this

[manic zealot]

perfect gold stake

[warped bear]

Then copy purple until no longer needed and switch to all red seal probably gold cards eventually right

[manic zealot]

exactly

you got it (:

[rapid glade]

any tips for blue stake?

[manic zealot]

focus more on building around pairs for this stake and onwards

it's important to have a good mix of chips, +mult, xmult, econ, and tarot generation

[rapid glade]

just pairs or things that include pairs like full house?

[acoustic kettle]

Just pairs

[manic zealot]

specifically simple pairs

[acoustic kettle]

You aim for the consistency of pairs

[rapid glade]

whats a good amount of chips to aim for? ive been trying to get a good amount of everything but havent really thought about tarot generation

[manic zealot]

a good amount is hard to quantify, it's more if you want your chips from a chips joker (stuntman, square joker, castle, etc), planet cards, or both if possible

[rapid glade]

alright, thanks!

[manic zealot]

best of luck

[woven spire]

sold the run

didnt see DNA

[manic zealot]

awww darn

what sucks about getting naneinf is that every piece needs to fall into place

[woven spire]

yeahhh

ive been trying nonstop for 3 daaays

[manic zealot]

I feel you

watch out for vouchers

those and spectrals are the hardest part to get right

[woven spire]

and with filtered seeds, cant imagine it on fully unseeded

[woven spire]

my closest try was just a try because i didnt see antimatter

e183🥀

[full orbit]

God tier shop pull. All cards considered face cards and all face cards turn gold when scored

[manic zealot]

the one where I got it, I got antimatter at like ante 6, so I was lucky. and around ante 21 or something, maybe higher I can't remember, I found a burglar at the perfect time to reroll the boss for the serpent

[manic zealot]

actually the greatest use case for a pareidolia

[full orbit]

Should I do it?

[manic zealot]

absolutely yes

[woven spire]

would sell my soul for this lmao

[full orbit]

Which jokers should I sell? (High card run)

[manic zealot]

have you unlocked golden ticket joker yet?

[full orbit]

Uhhh dont think so

[manic zealot]

what's ice cream at

[full orbit]

95

[manic zealot]

you can unlock it with this build, you need to play a 5 card hand that contains all gold cards

[woven spire]

best looking polychrome.

[manic zealot]

sell banner and chad for it

[full orbit]

Pride

[woven spire]

lol

[full orbit]

Holy

[manic zealot]

crazy right?

so now when you get the chance, play a 5 card hand of already gold-ified cards and boom you unlocked a new joker

[fluid zealot]

Now get Vampire 😮‍💨

[manic zealot]

lol true

[full orbit]

What does that do

I feel so nooby

[manic zealot]

it sucks the enhancement off your cards, each one granting x0.1 increase to xmult score

it's pretty good

[rapid glade]

is it worth taking a buffoon pack first 2 rounds? ive been losing a lot of runs in the first 2 antes because i dont have anything early

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[manic zealot]

it's usually worth it

[vocal rose]

most of the times

[serene forge]

yes you should almost always take the buffoon pack in shop 1

[vocal rose]

if theres already something in the shop thats useful I take it

[serene forge]

there's a reason why it's guaranteed

[vocal rose]

but if not I take buffoon

[rapid glade]

what about skipping rounds? which tags are worth skipping for in general

ive only really been skipping for negative or free rare

[vocal rose]

dont

[manic zealot]

if you see an investment tag on ante 1

otherwise, I would not skip

[vocal rose]

skipping in general is a huge disadvantage

[rapid glade]

alright, thanks!

[vocal rose]

an example of me not taking buffoon pack

its different on the higher stakes but

a non stickered wrathful joker is very good ante 1-2

[full orbit]

Welp I lost 😭

The wall killed my run

[manic zealot]

oof

[full orbit]

Seed if anyone wants 4FGP5675

[manic zealot]

something to keep in mind is that you shouldn't keep the pareidolia for long

it was probably too long if you still had it at the end there

[full orbit]

Yeah

Welp

You learn from it

[manic zealot]

back to the grind

yep

[full orbit]

Worth it round one?

[manic zealot]

never

[full orbit]

K

Money is more important

[manic zealot]

much more

[rapid glade]

are there any other jokers to 100% take ante 1 or 2? along with vouchers in general

[cedar orbit]

Loving this high card build

[manic zealot]

burglar + loyalty card is fun

[vocal rose]

scaling jokers

grabber

[manic zealot]

cuz usually loyalty card is not all that great

[cedar orbit]

I NEVER use loyalty card but this was the perfect opportunity

[manic zealot]

it's the best use case for it period

[full orbit]

Voucher or Buffoon pack?

[vocal rose]

buffoon

[manic zealot]

yeah buffoon

[full orbit]

The 25% off forever isn’t worth it?

Why

[manic zealot]

not when you have that low money rn

[vocal rose]

because you have no money

[manic zealot]

and no jokers

[vast delta]

WOOO
second gold stake win in the bag

[full orbit]

Ok

[full orbit]

gg

[manic zealot]

good job!

[vocal rose]

and you have nothing to take advantage of with that voucher

priority is to hit interest cap asap

[full orbit]

I assume vagabond is shit

[manic zealot]

not at all,

quite the opposite in my experience

[vocal rose]

nope

its one of the best jokers in the game

[full orbit]

Really? But

You want money

[manic zealot]

ik it sounds like it won't give you money because you need to be poor to use it, but

[vocal rose]

you want value generation

it sounds bad but

one tarot per hand is crazy value gen

[full orbit]

K

[manic zealot]

it gives so many tarot cards that it winds up carrying the entire run if you can supplement a vagabond with ok score

[full orbit]

So I’ll get it and get me below 4

[vocal rose]

yes

[manic zealot]

yep

[vocal rose]

if you can live though

[full orbit]

Ohhhh wait is it good with bank card?

[manic zealot]

but it's not always a pickup, you have to be sure you can manage the tightrope walk well

eh

[full orbit]

Because I could go into debt

[manic zealot]

not really no

[vocal rose]

on paper it is

but nah its not

[full orbit]

Dang ok

[manic zealot]

it's better to stay just below 4 dollars rather than much more than that

[full orbit]

K bought a planet pack and got Pluto thankfully

[manic zealot]

credit card is like the worst econ joker and almost nothing makes it worth using most of the time

[manic zealot]

epic

[worn valve]

what's so special about the aleeb seed

[manic zealot]

my cat is finally behaving itself

[full orbit]

Nothing worth it but buying the planet pack

[manic zealot]

crafty joker isn't bad for ante 1

[full orbit]

Yooo it gave me Pluto again

[foggy dome]

Chat be real w me

Do i showman

Do i sell photo for showman

[manic zealot]

hmm

yeah photo doesn't do much in ante 15

[sleek pike]

I’m learning

[foggy dome]

Showman HAS given me a third brainstorm i think hes goated

Fuck it, you did okay photo. Good run

Showman, show me a blueprint

[manic zealot]

big ass straight

[sleek pike]

He has potential to do good but the downsides are too potent to be worth it

[stiff ore]

jesus lol

i think youll get a straight

[vocal rose]

holy fuck

[manic zealot]

based

also based shortcut spotted

[foggy dome]

Nvm

[full orbit]

LETS GOO I PULLED DNA

Vagabond gave me hologram

W combo

[foggy dome]

Idol hit the jack of diamonds i had in my back pocket

[manic zealot]

wow

[rapid glade]

is flashcard worth taking over anything?

[foggy dome]

Piss

Such is the fate of idol gaming...

Ten trillion king of spades vs 1 diamond jack

[full orbit]

Wait do I go for dna or half joker

[manic zealot]

half joker

[foggy dome]

Dna early sucks

[manic zealot]

dna is often bait

[full orbit]

Ah

[manic zealot]

dna is only good in combination with other jokers you already have

[sleek pike]

How? It’s always godlike in my experience

[foggy dome]

Dna by itself is just -1 hand early on

[manic zealot]

this is more so from my experience on gold stake

[foggy dome]

Good if you already have good high card scoring

[manic zealot]

it's never worth it if you can't score enough to survive, or if you can generate money instead

exactly

[foggy dome]

Otherwise you just slowly kill your run

[sleek pike]

You can choose to use or not use it off of how well you generally score then

[full orbit]

Hex or familiar? I assume familiar

[foggy dome]

Yeah but early on id rather have the 8 dollars

[sleek pike]

Then if you need space and don’t care for it sell it

[vocal rose]

godlike how so

[rapid glade]

how important is chips compared to +mult? i have scholar and supernova right now, with flash card in the shop. i also have cavendish for xmult

[sleek pike]

It’s peak

[manic zealot]

if you only have 1 joker and you plan to keep it long term, pick the hex

[lunar zealot]

chips is half your score

[vocal rose]

ok how so

[full orbit]

I have 5

[lunar zealot]

chips will always be important to your build

[manic zealot]

hex kills you then

[fluid zealot]

Card maxxing

[foggy dome]

Depends what you already have

[manic zealot]

can I see your jokers

[sleek pike]

Uh uh copy uhh stonks uhhh less gamble in gamble game uhhhhh dna

[full orbit]

Beat you to it lol

[manic zealot]

lol yeah

the play here is to take the familiar or to skip

[vocal rose]

wtf???

[full orbit]

Thank you @manic zealot you the goat

[foggy dome]

Also shoutout to showman double wraith into blueprint

[manic zealot]

godlike shop pull

[manic zealot]

np bro

[foggy dome]

Really sent my run flying

[honest dawn]

Riff raff challenge in gold stake

[foggy dome]

I got a mobile high score at least

Lmao

[honest dawn]

The first pack comes out riff raff

The first Jokers pack

[manic zealot]

riff raff start is like amazing

[honest dawn]

And I only played with jokers that come out of it

[foggy dome]

Riff raff is goated start card

[worn valve]

best first shop joker dare i say

[sleek pike]

Real

[honest dawn]

Yeah

[foggy dome]

But one of the tougher gold stake stickers

Cuz its a dead joker slot

[manic zealot]

turns out I never needed the acrobat but it made me feel safe, also shoutout to space joker for helping this run

[foggy dome]

Any other joker provides some value to ur build

But once u have full jokers riff raff provides nothing. At most it can have an edition and thats it

If u can get it negative its an easier time but its a tough sticker to get compared to most others

My ass is never getting diet cola sticker

Its just not gonna happen

[manic zealot]

it is if you're running baseball card

[foggy dome]

Okay fair

[acoustic kettle]

Just treat it like a value generator

[sleek pike]

Vagabond my beloved. Not like it’s good it’s just fun

[foggy dome]

Oh yeah riffraff is great. Im talking about taking it to ante 8 for the sticker

Its tough

[manic zealot]

I never had vagabond tho

[foggy dome]

Vagabond is so goated

It IS good

[manic zealot]

but yes it's amazing

[sleek pike]

I’ve been told it sucks idk I just went off of that

[foggy dome]

But u need to know when to let go of it

[manic zealot]

trust us on this it is very good

[foggy dome]

U can fall into a trap of never having money cuz ur trying too hard to get value off of it

That is a mistake

[manic zealot]

it can transform your deck, you just need to pick the right time to take it, and the right time to ditch it

[foggy dome]

But if used well vagabond is a genuinely good deck fixing joker

[acoustic kettle]

Deck fixing or you can do this

[sleek pike]

Reliable tarot generation is just really fun too

[foggy dome]

Yep exactly. You gotta know when to ditch his ass

[worn valve]

can i beat a32 with this

antimatter and ecto used

[foggy dome]

Hand size?

[worn valve]

7

[foggy dome]

Red seals?

[worn valve]

but ill def get pallete by then

[foggy dome]

Steel?

[worn valve]

yes i have red seal steel kings made

[foggy dome]

Ahh ur not close yet?

Then yeah

[sleek pike]

Oh yeah forgot to mention, my best run didn’t have antimatter or ecto bc rng didn’t want me to lol, thanks Mr rng god

[worn valve]

im on 22 rn

[foggy dome]

If ur there and ur not close to that score requirement yet u should be ok

[full orbit]

W sock and buskin play?

[manic zealot]

only if you have the retcon voucher, you reroll for the serpent once the blind scaling gets too high to beat, you replace your dna with a burglar, and you farm the serpent for a huge hand and skip to the boss every ante

[foggy dome]

Just focus on red seals and steel

And serpent yea

[worn valve]

i think my max rn is like e130

[acoustic kettle]

Well you're still far away

[manic zealot]

I would save my money tbh

[foggy dome]

Id have to check my pc savefile for my max

[acoustic kettle]

For a22 the jokers look good

[foggy dome]

Im on phone rn

[native cape]

great start

[worn valve]

also

[manic zealot]

what's to do list on

[worn valve]

holy

[full orbit]

What if I sell vega

[native cape]

full house

[acoustic kettle]

Why do you even want sock and buskin

[full orbit]

Retriever face cards?

[light brook]

most whimiscal run oat (nothing aside arrowhead synergized well with chad)

[manic zealot]

I would rather take that and get giga money, especially because you have a blueprint to copy it

[sleek pike]

What’s the recommended amount of perkeo copying per round for ante 39 planet acceleration? Like obviously as much as possible but like what’s an amount that gives you a fair shot

[foggy dome]

If todo list hits literally anything but high card, pair, or the hand i was already going to play anyway i do not bother

It is just not worth it

[arctic elk]

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

[foggy dome]

Bro fighting the sewer rats for scraps‼️

[light brook]

early inviz hit the chad, got the showman from a FUCKING NEGATIVE SKIP TAG and blueprint because of it

[worn valve]

got retcon

[sleek pike]

Arrowhead is a goated joker tho

[light brook]

lost to the goad 🥀

[woven spire]

2831983289th try.

[foggy dome]

Goad

[acoustic kettle]

Looks good

Holy

[sleek pike]

Sadge

[worn valve]

your negative mimes look goofy asf

[acoustic kettle]

Unless you used 2 ectos

[light brook]

barely survived ante 9 lol the econ was in the shitter trying to get photo or sum

[acoustic kettle]

Which is

Ouch

[woven spire]

one

[arctic elk]

How dou get arrowhead ;-;

I don't have him yet

[acoustic kettle]

Amazing

[cloud sinew]

have 30 spades in your deck

[worn valve]

do i take the wraith

[arctic elk]

THANKS

[woven spire]

need antimatter and i think i can do it chat

[manic zealot]

funny one

[woven spire]

wish me luck

[acoustic kettle]

[manic zealot]

you got this

[woven spire]

this my chunky deck

[light brook]

bloodstone rough gem and onyx are unlocked the same way with their respective suits as well (hearts diamonds and clubs respectively)

[light brook]

worth

[sleek pike]

How are two of the mimes negative? Crazy luck with one and ecto on the other?

[woven spire]

those are blueprints

with a mod

[vocal rose]

ffs

wrong one

but theres a DUSK

[arctic elk]

Thanks :D

[sleek pike]

Well then I ask the same question but for blueprints

Reply fail but whatever

[woven spire]

Filtered seed that gets me a neg blueprint, ankhed the bp and got lucky with an ecto

[sleek pike]

Ah

Okay that makes sense

[foggy dome]

I need to get the other suit jokers

Ive literally never unlocked them cuz I like the art on spade cards

So I always gravitate toward them

Lmao

[rapid glade]

is orbital tag ever worth it if it levels your main hand? ante 6

[foggy dome]

I onlu have spearhead and uhhh

Whats the heart one

Soapstone?

Bloodstone

[worn valve]

whats ur econ

[rapid glade]

i have money tree and at 98$ rn

[worn valve]

then yes

[sleek pike]

Go do it 3/4 of them are at least B tier in my underexperienced opinion

[woven spire]

do i get rid of DNA with 88 kings? not a single steel tho

[placid ridge]

Ante 1 second shop gave me eternal Ride the Bus. Should I also take Square?

[acoustic kettle]

Get rid of baron

[acoustic kettle]

Sure

[woven spire]

good idea

[worn valve]

i posted 200 seeds with nat negative bp +bs if u wanna do one of mine

[woven spire]

i wanna keep it on filtered and not fully seeded, but thanks!

CHAT

[sleek pike]

Is it bad to go for ante 39 before going for naneinf or do we ball

[worn valve]

Don't bite the hand that feeds you.

[woven spire]

do i gamble?

[sleek pike]

Gamble

[acoustic kettle]

Well i mean a38 is close to naneinf anyway

[warped bear]

Alright run update

I’m running out of time

[sleek pike]

Most naneinf strats are just surging for it tho and that’s not sustainable for ante 39

[acoustic kettle]

No?

[sleek pike]

Like I’m gonna get naneinf doing this obv

[acoustic kettle]

Just reroll to serpent every ante and naneinf every boss

[worldly aspen]

lets go perkeo observatory****

[sleek pike]

Every eight bosses tho

[warped bear]

Boss blind on 32 will be impossible because you’ll need serpent and you won’t be able to get it

[acoustic kettle]

Yeah you need dna for the finishers

[warped bear]

You could nane inf now with burglar

[worn valve]

does verdant leaf do anything to me on a baron mime build? the hand i play doesnt contribute to scoring but idk

[acoustic kettle]

Nothing triggers

[worn valve]

what about the maron and mime

baron

[acoustic kettle]

Well the cards are debuffed

Jokers won't trigger a debuffed card

[worn valve]

ohhh thx

[warped bear]

Baron and mine will trigger but the cards are debuffed so they won’t do anything

[worldly aspen]

yooooooooo

[sleek pike]

x1 retrigger x1 retrigger x1 retr- you get the point

[sleek pike]

Mmmm sodr

[worldly aspen]

?

[sleek pike]

Yummers

Soda

[worldly aspen]

ok

also

[acoustic kettle]

Midas mask

[sleek pike]

You can’t drink a Midas mask

You can drink a soder

[worldly aspen]

yoooooooo

[acoustic kettle]

You can't wear a soda

[worldly aspen]

chad now

[acoustic kettle]

I mean i would've got rid of smeared

[sleek pike]

Yes you can

[acoustic kettle]

Hiker chad is a ton of chips

[worldly aspen]

i had an empty slot

[acoustic kettle]

Hiker

You sold hiker

[worldly aspen]

wait

[sleek pike]

Put it on your head. New hat.

[worldly aspen]

when did i sell hiker

im confused

i didnt sell it in that shop

[woven spire]

never enough kings.

[worldly aspen]

what the hell

how

[worldly aspen]

my god

[vocal rose]

rip naneinf

[woven spire]

what why.

[vocal rose]

so many golds

[woven spire]

yeahhhhh

[vocal rose]

what ante

[worn valve]

sigh

[woven spire]

16

[worldly aspen]

are these seeded runs?

[vocal rose]

nvm ur good

[acoustic kettle]

Sell brainstorm for holo brainstorm

[woven spire]

im copying a buncha steel

[acoustic kettle]

It is an extra 30 mult

[lunar zealot]

Stfu

[worldly aspen]

also forgot this run is on plasma so

it balances out pretty well

[placid ridge]

should I take fortune teller? 🤔 Currently +3

[worldly aspen]

yes

yes

yes

yes

yes

yes

yes

yes

yesz

[woven spire]

So, with this setup, i could survive till ante 24, find burglar reroll to serpent and naneinf?

i need retcon and antimatter yet tho

[worldly aspen]

no idea what that means

[placid ridge]

Yes fortune teller? alright.

[worldly aspen]

i think i am getting one more ante out of this

[warped bear]

And my run dies to the plant on ante 17 🙁

[worldly aspen]

dang

my is gonna be earlier just because i am not scaling fast enough unless i find oops all ssixes

[placid ridge]

The plant is inevitable. You got pretty far, good job.

[warped bear]

I rolled 2350 in the shop to find a luchador and couldn’t find one

[worldly aspen]

wow

i got e11

[warped bear]

But to take the luchador I would’ve had to have given up a blueprint so it would’ve been a hard rebound anyways

[worldly aspen]

e 13

[warped bear]

That’s a good score especially if not on plasma

[worldly aspen]

its on plasma

i need to get lucky to get e 13

[warped bear]

Plasma is fun E11 is still a really good score

[wary zodiac]

very helpful

[worldly aspen]

also this wasnt seeded

do i replae smeared for the ultra high score

[warped bear]

Negative oops is very nice 🙂 it’ll suck with the glass switch though

[warped cradle]

how do i get better at this game i’ve finally won all decks at white stake

[wary zodiac]

watch balatro university and roffle heavy

[warped cradle]

actually that’s not true i still have erratic deck to win

[warped bear]

Depends if you want to end the run quick or get as far as you can

[wary zodiac]

try to gold stake every deck :)

[warped cradle]

i watch roffle bc he’s funny n

[worn valve]

erm

[worldly aspen]

lets see

[warped bear]

Playing a lot is what roffle will tell you

[worldly aspen]

e 15

[wary zodiac]

roffle lite is more for fun content, whereas roffle heavy is more like, education focused

i love both

[warped bear]

That’s a huge help lol

[warped cradle]

i already have like 150 hours on the game

and i have 1 gold stake deck done

🥀

[worldly aspen]

same

except only 100 hours

[warped cradle]

and it was red deck bc i thought hmm lemme play in order

[wary zodiac]

if i got it early i would've kept my bloodstone, but rn all it'll do is accelerate my death 😭

[warped bear]

Yeah I’ve got 350 hours across three accounts with zero gold stakes so thats impressive

[wary zodiac]

i also though 150 hours was a lot

[glad viper]

bombler jumpscare

[worn valve]

I FORGOT TO SERPENT FARM

[wary zodiac]

little did i know

[woven spire]

I JST NEED RETCON

[warped bear]

That sucks I’m so sorry it happens though

[worn valve]

welp

[worldly aspen]

welp gg

[warped cradle]

big number

[worldly aspen]

someone else could probably do better

[glad viper]

how the fuck are you people doing this

[warped cradle]

never gotten that high

[warped bear]

That’s a very good score considering it was black stake right

[worldly aspen]

i guess

it wasnt seeded so that was nice

[worn valve]

i forgot bro 😭😭

[glad viper]

WHY

[warped cradle]

all of my deck wins have been with smeared joker bc i’m too stupid to deck fix

[worldly aspen]

that happens sometimes to me

[warped bear]

Deck fixing starts with a choice and then commitment

[warped cradle]

i feel like an idiot

[worn valve]

pain

[warped bear]

Don’t feel like a idiot this game is just hard

[worldly aspen]

if you cant tell i love flushes

[warped cradle]

23 hands 🥀

[warped bear]

Flushes and pairs are the easiest hands to build towards

[worldly aspen]

thats a lot

[warped cradle]

ik. yet i’m bad at pairs

[worldly aspen]

yeah my joker stats show i like flushes

[warped cradle]

and two pairs

and other stuff

[warped bear]

I said it was easy to make a pair build not that they were for everyone

[warped cradle]

i know i’m
saying im
bad at most things

[worldly aspen]

just watch people play balatro, thats how i got better

[warped cradle]

i watch but that don’t help i need like a coaching session 😭

[warped bear]

Balatro is just hard people I mean I’ve got almost 400 hours and I’ve only gotten two unseeded legendary less naninfs and I target naninf every run

[worldly aspen]

really only 2 unseeded legendaries

[warped bear]

That’s not including me messing around with Cryptid mod

[warped bear]

It autocorrected I meant legenderyless

[warped cradle]

ONLy 2 naninfs 🥀

[worldly aspen]

i have never gotten naninf

[warped bear]

Yeah without legendary Ive gotten zero with perkeo accelerator

[warped cradle]

yeah uhh this shows im ass

[warped bear]

Ok but like I’ve played four hundred hours basically all focused on it

[worldly aspen]

some of that is good

[warped bear]

You like the tried and true photo Chad with smiley face

[worldly aspen]

like chad, photo, banananannana, rebate

[worldly aspen]

you really tried for 2 pairs

i suggest trying to gold stake checkered deck and go for flushes

thats the only gold stake i got

[warped cradle]

im working my way up the stakes on all decks

so im finishing white then moving to red and so forth

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[worldly aspen]

you are going to get stuck at black stake, it is considered the hardest deck

[worldly aspen]

why?

[worldly aspen]

oh you mean stake not deck

[warped bear]

Uhm

[warped cradle]

im well aware

[warped bear]

My stats are kinda crazy lol

[worldly aspen]

WHAT YOU MEAN

oops caps lock

[acoustic kettle]

I too was flush but then i played pairs

[worldly aspen]

how do you get brainstorm and bp so much

[warped cradle]

hmmmm arrowhead lol

[warped bear]

Lots of money

[serene forge]

its bad

[warped cradle]

brb considering life choices

[warped bear]

Again I go for naninf 99% of the time they’re sorta necessary

[patent carbon]

In the same pack 😭

[woven spire]

whats the ante nedeed to naneinf????

[warped bear]

It’s happened to all of us

[acoustic kettle]

No ante

[warped bear]

Anything above 24

[acoustic kettle]

Just naneinf whenever

[warped cradle]

least i got a riff raff lol

[woven spire]

with serpent and burglar i mean

[serene forge]

buffoon

blueprint is bait

[woven spire]

and 24?

[acoustic kettle]

Above 24

You have to survive 24 though

[oak tangle]

hi team. does anyone have that mod that gives you arbitrary jokers loaded up? i have a question for you: if you have <Ceremonial Dagger> <Ceremonial Dagger> <any joker>, does <any joker> get eaten?

[serene forge]

not 24

[warped cradle]

thank you riff raff

[serene forge]

you cant get serpent on 24

[serene forge]

yo rebate

gg

[warped bear]

You can’t twenty four because no serpent

[elfin dragon]

I’ve been blessed

Ante 2 black deck

[woven spire]

yh im dumb

[acoustic kettle]

I believe no

[warped cradle]

its on Playstation now?

[patent carbon]

My pack

[wary zodiac]

im gonna die next ante anyways so i think it would be funny to try and build a world record campfire

...not actually sure what the wr is, but i have all the tarot vouchers, liquidation, and a lot of money to burn

[warped bear]

Not dumb just learning

[serene forge]

chad no question

[acoustic kettle]

Below 24 you might win too early

[warped cradle]

ante 2 shop btw

[serene forge]

whyd you take invis
