Verdant is gonna pwn you

[bright stratus]

quick question

what is the best type of music to listen while playing balatro

[lost vault]

i mean
even if it can appear in this challenge, i'd be fine

[tranquil steppe]

Silence

[lost vault]

its not like i need cards to score

look at my jokers

[bright stratus]

the fridge sounds at 2 am

[tranquil steppe]

Wut

[lost vault]

im more scared of cheart or violet cessel

[swift lodge]

chicot is not a curse

[bright stratus]

i like ur pfp

[swift lodge]

I don’t get the chicot hate

[bright stratus]

also it is

[tranquil steppe]

I do

[swift lodge]

me when i chicot and i find the manacle

[lost vault]

we now have 11 hands 👀

[swift lodge]

• 1 handsize

[bright stratus]

leave some for the rest of us

[heady fable]

Just lost a double photochad build to the plant

[lost vault]

you need 2 for that bug

[lost vault]

i am burgling them

[bright stratus]

[heady fable]

Luchador was no where to be found

Neither was sock

[bright stratus]

directors cut

easiest way out

[heady fable]

No where either

[bright stratus]

TBOI

[barren wigeon]

deserved for using double photochad

[heady fable]

I had no choice

[barren wigeon]

lose

[bright stratus]

photochad rocks

(im new)

[barren wigeon]

looks inside

[heady fable]

Plus I was looking for a sock cause I got an idol and was close to getting all Jack of clubs

It was blueprint photo blueprint Chad negative cavendish Idol 🥀

[lost vault]

yuuuge

[heady fable]

Why is everything eternal 😭

[bright stratus]

also perkeo blood stone with that tasty 1.5 multipier for the acording planetaruim cards (40 times) with a checkered deck

oooooooooooooooooooh

[wraith iris]

before any synergies kick in, which card do you normally use gold/steel on?

[bright stratus]

and photo chad

[lost vault]

look at the deck brah

[heady fable]

Bloodstone no oops

[heady fable]

I don't have that deck brah

[bright stratus]

cheap cards

[wraith iris]

i'm not sure what that means

like low value, 2-5ish?

[lost vault]

its the challenge deck

[heady fable]

Aces

[bright stratus]

correct

[lost vault]

non-perishable challenge

[wraith iris]

why is that?

[lost vault]

all jokers are eternal

btw constellation never surpassed red card in terms of power

[wraith iris]

just because you want to play the higher ones ig

[bright stratus]

i dont play specific types of decks soooo i dont relly mind (i also rely on face cards)

[bright stratus]

mhm

[wraith iris]

usually i end up playing them on higher value cards because i usually end up trimming the low value cards

like 8-10

[hot jackal]

Is smiley face and photograph good synergy

[lost vault]

meh

[bright stratus]

glass goes to queens
steel and gold on 5-2s

[lost vault]

jot really

[bright stratus]

nawr

[lost vault]

its like 5 extra mult

not great

[primal sable]

I wish I could play Balatro but it's borderline crashing my laptop.

[bright stratus]

paradolia and sock and buskin

is good

ofc with a blueprint or a brainsorm

[serene forge]

I hate Smiley Face

[signal brook]

One of you absolute plants pinged me

[serene forge]

I hate Plasma Deck

[hot jackal]

Is business card and reserved parking good synergy

[heady narwhal]

roughly equivalent to 10 base mult

[hot jackal]

For money

[heady narwhal]

no

[signal brook]

I hate square joker

[uncut fable]

Balatro is Poker, Dungeons and Degenerate Gamblers is Blackjack. Is there a rouge like Cribbage game?

[signal brook]

Wth is cribbage

[uncut fable]

What

[signal brook]

What in the hell is cribbage

[uncut fable]

It's a strategic card game.

[signal brook]

Then probably not

[serene forge]

no that's literally anti synergy

[heady narwhal]

i would have to guess there are like 10 but they're all not very good

[cerulean spoke]

is it me or does this joker have like infinite aura

[lunar zealot]

well balatro isn't exactly poker

[signal brook]

Canio photograph

[wraith iris]

is this a strong enough synergy to carry my game? ive never hit riff raff + campfire before

[serene forge]

I love square joker. You are bad at this game.

[signal brook]

I love plasma deck. You are bad at this game.

See? Silly.

[heady narwhal]

campfire on its own is a strong enough joker to carry your run

[serene forge]

one of these statements is unlike the other

[sharp plank]

Yorick burgular

[cerulean spoke]

how does it carry tho

[signal brook]

I raise you a madness campfire

[heady narwhal]

it's a good joker

[cerulean spoke]

its no more than 2-3x multiplier

[median summit]

Welp. Just had banana 1 break. This is both good and bad on gold stake, right?

[cerulean spoke]

unless you intentionally stack it

[serene forge]

that's.... the point?????

[cerulean spoke]

you cant really stack it much tho?

[heady narwhal]

if you save your money for ante 8 you can get it to like 12x and kill vv with hammers

[signal brook]

Madness destroy card before campfire hit

[median summit]

Buy and sell rentals on gold

[heady narwhal]

you don't need more than 2~3x before that anyways

[serene forge]

this is a 15x campfire fyi

[median summit]

Yaoi

[wraith iris]

and it's doing nothing lol

[signal brook]

Obelisk supernova

[wraith iris]

that's very unfortunate

[serene forge]

it was perishable idiot

[cerulean spoke]

ye bro if i sell 60 cards get 2 copies of that then any card will be strong

[signal brook]

Why are you so damn hostile

[wraith iris]

woah man, i'm just messing

[lunar zealot]

joined server february 4 2026

[signal brook]

Goddamn

[lunar zealot]

i wonder whose alt this is

[serene forge]

get good econ idk what to say

campfire is game winning

[lunar zealot]

"man"

[cerulean spoke]

good econ, in what game are you able to buy 60 jokers to sell to stack it in one ante

[wraith iris]

wtf why is everyone so hostile, i'm fairly new to this game, asking advice, and joking around

[serene forge]

uhh

literally the one I posted

lol

[signal brook]

Can we like start smilebaiting instead

[heady narwhal]

56 jokers and consumables

[lunar zealot]

i don't think i'm being hostile

[cerulean spoke]

just for one ante

[serene forge]

campfire is a card that reads "pay 2 dollars to scale 0.25x"

it's very good

[lost vault]

we hate noobs

hell yeah

[heady narwhal]

save up yoyr money??

[lunar zealot]

no we don't

[signal brook]

We see that

[cerulean spoke]

how you gonna clear everything before??

[lost vault]

we love casting spells

[serene forge]

you don't need it at more than like 2x or 3x most of the time

[lunar zealot]

Campfire is a win condition joker

[heady narwhal]

it costs almost nothing to get campfire to 2x each ante

[median summit]

Shame it wasn't 67

[lunar zealot]

where if you have it you have a win condition

[cerulean spoke]

and whats the point of 2x campfire

[signal brook]

Name change

[sharp plank]

pets and cuddles u

[slim plinth]

do we go for it

[heady narwhal]

it doubles your score

[lost vault]

aaawawa

[lunar zealot]

its purpose is different than, say, hologram

[lost vault]

w<

[serene forge]

xmult

[lunar zealot]

x2 mult

[serene forge]

I think

[cerulean spoke]

many jokers double your mult

[median summit]

Some triple it

[lost vault]

yes go for the immolate 👀

[serene forge]

and campfire is one of the best ones

[lunar zealot]

yes but campfire does it with no condition or prerequisite

[cerulean spoke]

u have to spend money for mult tho

[lunar zealot]

ramen is x2 mult IF you never discard

[heady narwhal]

none of those jokers become 7 times as effective on the final ante

[slim plinth]

you think the soul card has perkeo

[serene forge]

yes that's how this game works

[lost vault]

would it natter

[lunar zealot]

see2 is x2 mult IF you have a club and a non club

[serene forge]

you spend money to increase your scoring

lol

[slim plinth]

i have observatory

[lost vault]

👀

[signal brook]

Yorick 🤤

[tawdry storm]

What can I do as a beginner to get better? Like videos I can watch or good joker synergies

[lunar zealot]

drspectred

[heady narwhal]

balala university

[lost vault]

check out balatro university

(aka dr spectred)

[sharp plank]

Go to university

[median summit]

Enroll in uni

[twin rune]

When the game that rewards you for having money has a joker that expects you to have some money

[sharp plank]

Balatro university

[lost vault]

hes one of the longest time players of the game and hes quite smart too

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[signal brook]

Enroll in uni and take game theory

[heady narwhal]

me too!!

[slim plinth]

chicoted again award

[lost vault]

i hate The Flint

[signal brook]

Bloodstone and blueker and throwback and

[serene forge]

vagabond is my favorite econ jonkler

[sharp plank]

Isn’t he a literal mathematician

[signal brook]

All cool

[sharp plank]

Same

[lost vault]

"nothing ever happens"
-chicot when boss blind

[cerulean spoke]

this joker is already like 10000x better than campfire imo

[slim plinth]

i dont have directors cut might be useful 👀👀👀

[median summit]

Same. -20/10 worst boss in the game

[cerulean spoke]

u do nothing for 3x

[heady narwhal]

certificate is my favorite value generator

[lost vault]

iirc he has a doctorate

[serene forge]

campfire doesn't die to boss blinds

[sharp plank]

How is that econ

[cerulean spoke]

no need to get 8 jokers to sell

[lost vault]

hes a literal dr

[serene forge]

this guy dies to 2 of them with 0 counterplay

[lost vault]

they dont call him dr spectred for nothing

[heady narwhal]

I hate Card Sharp

[cerulean spoke]

just reroll the boss

[median summit]

Tempy, Hermie:

[serene forge]

*carp sharp

[signal brook]

Hating to hate

[median summit]

*Card Shart

[cosmic sun]

the point of campfire is xmult 🤯

[heady narwhal]

• 10% chance to die each ante
• boring as shit

[serene forge]

yeah ill just pull directors cut out of my fucking ass great idea

[signal brook]

-# your opinions are
WRONG

[cosmic sun]

balatro players forget about consistency in gold stake when judging jokers

balatro players forget about gold stake

[signal brook]

Rahh ☠️⚔️⭕️

[sharp plank]

*arse

[serene forge]

hermit, temperance, devil, deck manipulation for devils and other potential value generation like c9

[wraith iris]

riff raff the goat

[sharp plank]

Good point

[median summit]

[wraith iris]

just handing me a whole photochad

[cosmic sun]

If you glaze red card but hate campfire

[sharp plank]

Riff raff smd

[heady narwhal]

G is such an underrated joker

[median summit]

Look at this photo chad

[median summit]

No jonkler does .6x

[serene forge]

I love Green Joker

[signal brook]

Eeeaaaeeeaaauuu

Eheh

Eheh

[serene forge]

vampire

[signal brook]

Throwback my beloved

[median summit]

That's increments of 0.1

[cosmic sun]

balatro youtube and r/balatro fighting for worst takes

[sharp plank]

Fuck throwback

[lunar zealot]

r/balatro wins

[signal brook]

I would

But I cant :/

[sharp plank]

Better than obelisk tho

[lunar zealot]

balatro youtube at least has the consolation of drspectred existing

[cosmic sun]

I dunno, some of the comments I've seen

[lunar zealot]

Eh

obelisk is really good

just takes skill to use

[cosmic sun]

The only reason I can see yt getting a pass is because drspectred exists

[median summit]

Reddit is the fucking wild wild West lmao

[cosmic sun]

But outside of his channel you will see stupidity

[signal brook]

Obelisk after countering half of every joker ever

[lunar zealot]

obelisk is really good

it just takes skill to use

[median summit]

Based

[signal brook]

Obelisk is kinda

Gold stake only

[median summit]

Eh

[lunar zealot]

Obelisk

Is really good

it just takes skill to use

[signal brook]

Opinion

Opinion

[cursive crater]

la la la la ahh

[serene forge]

keep in mind you're talking to a plasma deck user

[lunar zealot]

x2.4 mult per ante is higher than yorick

[signal brook]

....opinion...

[heady narwhal]

if aj depended on deck composition, would you suitfix for it?

[lunar zealot]

That is factual

[twin rune]

I personally hate when jokers are really good for winning on the hardest difficulty

[lunar zealot]

i don't want to hear the assumption that this is an opinion

because obelisk scales faster than yorick and madness combined

[cosmic sun]

I bet Obelisk haters force the same builds every time instead of working with what they have

[lunar zealot]

it is factually a good joker

[median summit]

Constellation is a great times mult Joker

[lunar zealot]

it just takes skill to use

[signal brook]

Your opinion that you (like obelisk) is an opinion

[serene forge]

this game would be so much better if it didn't have photograph

[lunar zealot]

I never once said i liked obelisk

i said obelisk is good

[serene forge]

kami post the image

[signal brook]

My opinion that I (like throwback) is an opinion

[lunar zealot]

Now if you'll stop ragebaiting then we can pretend this didn't happen

[heady narwhal]

Your opinion that you is an opinion

[median summit]

It further rewards you for doing something in normal gameplay

[cosmic sun]

good discourse guys

"erm everyone has opinions"

[signal brook]

Opionion is that opinion is opinion!!

[serene forge]

onion

[lunar zealot]

anti intellectualism is a plague

[signal brook]

The onion gets more real...

[median summit]

Opinions are like assholes, some people should keep them to themselves

[signal brook]

Some?

[lunar zealot]

We need to start culling

[heady narwhal]

new discourse: throwback vs loyalty card

[twin lantern]

"Some"

[cosmic sun]

erm guys...it's just a card game why would you talk about it

[swift totem]

we should make a game out of the culling

[lunar zealot]

Loyalty

[swift totem]

(Part 1)

[median summit]

Cullatro when?

[lunar zealot]

oh it's just warcraft 3

[signal brook]

This is borderline illegal to say

[vocal rose]

loyalty clears

[serene forge]

loyalty card works rarely but it works quite good when it does

[signal brook]

Negative throwback looks epic so I like it

[serene forge]

throwback is just trash

[twin lantern]

Throwback moment

[swift totem]

I average 3 skips per endless run

[median summit]

CHICKEN JOCKEY

[lunar zealot]

Loyalty is emergency scoring

[twin rune]

Loyalty card that gets good if you get a load of hands (something you want to do anyway) versus throwback which rewards you for doing things you should almost never do...

[heady narwhal]

loyalty + throwback is my favorite synergy

[cosmic sun]

throwback's scaling requirement is detrimental most of the time so that's already an easy win for loyalty

[signal brook]

THE NETHER

[twin lantern]

Im cold

[serene forge]

well you can't always get a burger

or both hand vouchers

[lost vault]

mreow

[serene forge]

you can't just get more hands

it's not that simple

[signal brook]

Did I hear burger

[twin rune]

Never implied it was

[median summit]

Here's one of my hands

[unborn cliff]

why are u no longer pink

[cosmic sun]

why you post a tomato

[signal brook]

Most people start with 2 hands per run ykyk

Balatro server invite link

[honest dawn]

But now I realize, haha, I thought it was crimson.

So why didn't you sell it before playing the blind?

[cold temple]

Bro I cant remember the names of any X poker hand Joker 😭🙏

[tranquil steppe]

I wanted the free money from riff raff, and brainstorm was good for that round (expired right after)

[signal brook]

The duo, the trio, the family, the order, the tribe

[buoyant iris]

The game really doesn't want me to get Naneinf

[tranquil steppe]

Yes. Hard to print screen a switch. Well not like super hard but it’s a bit more tedious

[full orbit]

Constellation, Baron

[cold temple]

No, I mean the classic ones

[signal brook]

Those are +mult

[lost vault]

pair - jolly joker, sly joker
3 of a kind - zany joker, wily joker
2 pair - mad joker, clever joker
flush - droll joker, crafty joker
straight - crazy joker, devious joker

[full orbit]

No way is that Chicot the legendary joker from the hit game Balaro?

[cold temple]

Balatreada-less

[signal brook]

3rd best one too

[lost vault]

theres also duo, trio, family, order, and tribe but those are pretty easy to remember

What about gay flushes?

[tranquil steppe]

You can also send them to your phone and download them 1 by 1

[signal brook]

Ill find that out when i finally get him

[tranquil steppe]

You’re not wrong

[cold temple]

You mean straight flushes?

Perkeo plus blueprint plus observatory is peak

Why do you still have vaga so late. You gotta boost your scoring

[full orbit]

They can “dig” you out of deep holes

😂 😂 I’m so funny

[median summit]

Vagabussy

[signal brook]

Is that why glass spades break more often

🦗

[full orbit]

I’m having a moneygasm

😫

[heady narwhal]

hearts are the worst suit in the game, and HERE's why:

violet vessel and crimson heart, the two finisher blinds that actually pose a threat to the average run, are both based on the hearts suit

[signal brook]

Skip on my blind till I cash out

[cold temple]

Versatil goated

[tranquil steppe]

I see fortune teller but nanners is more powerful here

[tranquil steppe]

Awwwww yisssss

[median summit]

We dunno the scaling on the fortune teller

[heady narwhal]

high

vagabond

ante 7

[tranquil steppe]

But vaga can only increase it maybe 5 more times before the final boss. Nanners is +15

[full orbit]

Literally who keeps vaga past ante 4

[buoyant iris]

I spent the RNG of the year

[cold temple]

I wish weel of fortune could give negative to our jokers

[tranquil steppe]

My point exactly

[heady narwhal]

average negative tag payout (3rd worst joker in the game)

[brave goblet]

All the effort to level straights and ended with 4oak

[tranquil steppe]

And nanners

[full orbit]

4oak decks goated

Go for flush five

[brave goblet]

I forgot bell force selected the duplicated card so you can't fool to death a second time 💔

Voucher ideas:

Gotta go Jeopardy is on

[cold temple]

Cheap stake >>>

[buoyant iris]

flush best poker hand

[twin lantern]

What card is better, 2 of diamonds or 4 or clubs?

[light brook]

highest round count 🥀

[fervent wolf]

Pairs are better btw

[full orbit]

Chat this is a hard choice

[light brook]

when you’re learning how to play flushes are better imo

[quick cloak]

free skip omg

[light brook]

THEN you learn “oh wait pairs are easier”

[fervent wolf]

Meow

I see

[buoyant iris]

worst highest round of ever

[tranquil steppe]

And they said it couldn’t be done

[tranquil steppe]

Do it. Joinnnnnnnn meeeeeee

We can be stencil bros

[full orbit]

[cold temple]

Lucoa dosnt lies

[naive heath]

[last geyser]

Bro where tf is stone joker

This guy doesn’t exist

[wraith iris]

i only know how to play balatro one way

[pale wolf]

stoneker is

who is this zebra

[naive heath]

[pale wolf]

you have stone cards right

[last geyser]

Yeah but it still doesn’t show up

[wraith iris]

yeah it should, i just bought the BP, hadn't thought about where to put it yet

[pale wolf]

okey just luck

[cerulean spoke]

this type of build just fully carried me

[vocal oracle]

going for ante39/naneinf and want some advice. what's best here to trade for baron? is it rebate or brainstorm? my thought is if i replace brainstorm i can find showman later and replace perkeo for it, then find another blueprint with the money im making. don't know if that's too risky though as ill lose some planet scaling and money gained

sup zebra

[pale wolf]

hi

[gentle island]

I love having 7 discards and a green joker

[cold temple]

Bro has nice vouchers

[vocal oracle]

i got lucky with reroll and antimatter haha, both were before ante 8

boss reroll obv

[oak elbow]

Yo can anyone help me with the mine

Mike

Mime

Like explain it

[vocal rose]

retriggers held in hand abilities

[prisma oak]

What to do into the eye when on a pair build

[vocal rose]

try one tap it

[oak elbow]

No shit bra🫩

[vocal rose]

gold card, steel card, raised fist are held in hand examples

[prisma oak]

I miss played I guess, I had 3x mult for last played hand and played the pair to early

[oak elbow]

Thank you

[prisma oak]

At least I lost to something other than miss reading a card this time

[vocal oracle]

hold a lot of gold cards / steel cards to get value from it. also, if you have a blueprint or brainstorm, before you get money from gold cards you can move the copy to mime during scoring to take advantage of increased scoring and increased money gain

[oak elbow]

Thank you

What are some crazy synergies and combos

[molten scroll]

who wanna watch me play cryptid

[slate talon]

Does anyone know of a mod to increase the speed in the game? Something that goes beyond 4x?

[slate talon]

Do you use any other mods besides cryptid?

[oak elbow]

Do you happen to be on aderall or speedrunning?

[molten scroll]

yes

[tawdry rock]

me when i

[tawdry rock]

4x is just enough to not bore yourself and to enjoy the game animations and the fluidity of it all

more is just overkill

[molten scroll]

no

[slate talon]

More like adderral

[tawdry rock]

but just search balatro game speed mod and you'll find something

[molten scroll]

i use 2048 speed

im autistic

i need it

[tawdry rock]

tism strikes again

[jagged coral]

Sooo perchance

[slate talon]

In the cryptid mod, after you start doing 10xe37, it starts to slow down.

[jagged coral]

If the games been loading a hand for like

100 seconds now

[molten scroll]

PLEASE

[tawdry rock]

you mean scoring

or calculating

[molten scroll]

someone watch me play cryptid

[tawdry rock]

those two are extremely different

[vocal oracle]

if you look at my message from a few minutes earlier with the images you'll see the ultimate mime combo - baron and red seal kings with many blueprints

[jagged coral]

I selected a card a press score

[tawdry rock]

i wouldnt recommend downloading mods while a hand is scoring

[tawdry rock]

is there a gray screen that says calculating...

[oak elbow]

Oh yea and shoot the moon probably

[tawdry rock]

or is it just scoring

like adding up chips and mult n all that

[eager summit]

another challenge complete

[jagged coral]

Like before that

[tawdry rock]

whar

[vocal oracle]

shoot the moon is good too but the scaling falls off since its additive mult rather than multiplicative

[jagged coral]

Like it was in the step of calculating the hand

[oak elbow]

It’s 300,000 only??

[tawdry rock]

i dont think game speed would help you

[lunar zealot]

On white stake

[oak elbow]

Oh

[tawdry rock]

just go to the main menu and back it could reset to before you played the hand

[vocal oracle]

snipping tool my friend

[tawdry rock]

40 questions

[oak elbow]

I’ve heard from Balatro uni that chips and mult multiplier are better than plus mult

[tawdry rock]

number one

how million dolla

number two

why is onyx agate crossed out in gray spikes

[jagged coral]

I used a payload card on misprint

[tawdry rock]

number three

how many fucking jokers is that

number 4

etcetera

[jagged coral]

Jolly joker made random cards

Motebook

[zinc cloud]

Any advice on what I drop for brainstorm? Do I get rid of rebate cause I have all gold seal kings?

[jagged coral]

I have like 2

[tawdry rock]

#⚙・modding-general pweass

[eager summit]

damn, modded is kinda cool ngl

[oak elbow]

I would twin

[zinc cloud]

Twin?

[jagged coral]

A Chad joker would make it worse

[oak elbow]

Yes

[zinc cloud]

What’s twin mean

[tawdry rock]

born on same day or identical in looks

[marsh vine]

HOW DID THE GAME LET ME DO THIS

[tawdry rock]

but in slang its just

[oak elbow]

Like friend

[tawdry rock]

like "bro" or "same"

[zinc cloud]

Ohhh mb

I’m a boomer I guess

Ty

[oak elbow]

Unc I’m crine

[tawdry rock]

personally to make fun of the people that use it i say twinnamon roll

[analog mulch]

BRO WHAT

[cloud swan]

what what

[reef oyster]

does invesment tag stack

[last geyser]

Should I sell hex and buy satellite or buy photo?

[tender bone]

I’d sell cuz it’s holographic meaning ez money and score for early

Wtf did i just say

[reef oyster]

i feel lied to

it didnt stack

[dull sapphire]

Random deck gold stake balatro, day 14
A8E7IDQ8 - Checkered deck

we've done it chat, behold the most autopilot-able seed in existence

(the debuffed eternal is an egg)

(yes i deliberately took eternal egg)

(no i did not find a single temperance in the entire seed)

[tender bone]

It does tho

[reef oyster]

does it only work for that ante round then?

[tender bone]

Do you mean that it works for later antes or if you can have more than one tag in one ante

[reef oyster]

like i had one in ante 2 and used it and had one in ante 3 and used it

but each time i only got 25

[tender bone]

Yeah what’s the problem

You didn’t have both in a single ante to get 50

[reef oyster]

oh

[analog mulch]

If you have multiple investment tags, they all trigger after beating the boss

[fervent wolf]

Crimson sucks >_<

[tawny verge]

What am I getting rid of here?

[dull sapphire]

one of your tribs

[tawny verge]

Really? I thought perk would go

Well too late now

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[tawny verge]

Now?

[serene forge]

sell a trib...

you don't even want 3 tribs you need a sock for scoring

[tawny verge]

Ok

[serene forge]

it's a good joker

[quick junco]

I mean

ok

But also I ASKED THAT LIKE 3 MONTHS AGO

💔 💔

[serene forge]

5

[buoyant iris]

I think you like play triboulet

[cerulean spoke]

how do you know

[buoyant iris]

I have a slight feeling

[cerulean spoke]

impossible

why is glass retrigger builds so easy to use 😭

[tawny verge]

Now?

[wanton magnet]

Yeah but but... but.. you need a full deck of red seal glass

[main perch]

Cat on 12.5x what do i do

[tawny verge]

I’m scoring e17 my bro

[wanton magnet]

Yeah on my momma you need red seal glass

[tawny verge]

Red seal lucky kings eventually I will switch

What I get rid of rn?

[wanton magnet]

Nothing

Youre perfect just the way you are

Dont change for anyone else

🩷

[tawny verge]

Sybau twin😭😭🥀

[serene forge]

2/3/26 balatrodle in 2

[solemn vessel]

we may have something brewing chat

[serene forge]

not with -9 dollar in ante 4 you don't

find a temperance and dupe it

[solemn vessel]

i've been trying to find a wraith for a minute

[serene forge]

skull

[viscid jewel]

Help what do I do, is my run over

[serene forge]

make a glass card next time

plant doesn't counter photochad

[hybrid tendon]

balatrodle in 3

[viscid jewel]

the hologram is on x6 multiplier and Yorick is on x1 because i unlocked it last round

[viscid jewel]

except it kinda is here

[serene forge]

because you didn't have the foresight to make glass

[serene forge]

Miku_love

[safe ibex]

legimately, making blue seals a 1 in 2 would fix them easily

there are definitely other things needed to fix the pair meta but also this would make blue seals very much Properly Nerfed without making them useless or changing them too much

and syngery with oops! yay!

[serene forge]

that's definitely a nerf but not a very good one

[safe ibex]

(ive proposed this before and people did not like it)

[serene forge]

i can see that

[safe ibex]

im actually really curious to why this wouldnt work

like what about it am i missing

[hybrid tendon]

rng

[serene forge]

i don't think nerfing things by simply making them rng is a good idea

[safe ibex]

i mean like yeah fair enough i suppose

[serene forge]

like old blue seals were crap because the planet they gave was completely rng

[safe ibex]

well yeah but this is only a 1 in 2 nerf instead of a 1 in 13

[serene forge]

obviously those odds are worse but the premise is the same

[safe ibex]

but i see what you mean

i think i need more clubs

so wait what would you propose as a nerf im actually very curious

[lime pawn]

all i know is pain

[acoustic kettle]

This only makes them worse for bigger hands

Which makes pairs even more dominant

[safe ibex]

theyre bad for bigger hands anyways

[acoustic kettle]

Well true

They're still good but not as good as smaller hands

But making them chance based is hurting bigger hands even more

[serene forge]

here win

[distant vault]

I died

[serene forge]

skill issue

[median dock]

My first ever legendary was probably one of the best jokers I could've got in this situation lol

[distant vault]

No its the games fault

[serene forge]

skill issue

[distant vault]

Here, win

Thanks poly skip

[terse pendant]

ok I might be lucky

[primal epoch]

get wheel ASAP

holy luck

[terse pendant]

fr lmao

[primal epoch]

also what is your deck 😭

[terse pendant]

nat negative canio + bus is generational

[terse pendant]

no wait

[primal epoch]

trib + bus 😭

[terse pendant]

peak synergy

[primal epoch]

ah yes my favorite synergy

[terse pendant]

yorick burglar solos tho

[primal epoch]

not better than burglar andy

[terse pendant]

good pointttttt

[primal epoch]

my dumbass may have had this setup at some point...

unironically too 😭

[terse pendant]

lmfao

😭 😭 😭

[eager summit]

lost an omelette run bc the colorblind mode failed me

i still saw the red as yellow

[sharp plank]

I’m colour blind and that mode doesn’t really help me

[sharp plank]

I confuse red and green

[marsh vine]

I just tried using Gluttonous Joker as The Moon

[past portal]

What do you recommend?

Baron or photograph

[rancid niche]

How many levels in high card, how many kings do you have in the deck?

[eager summit]

what a beautiful start to a ghost deck run

[past portal]

High card level 2 and I have 5 kings, I also chose photography

[primal epoch]

sell gros 😭

why would you want him over photochad

[rancid niche]

Yeah you can start building towards a baron and surely it will show up later if you wanna have a baron build

[vocal oracle]

:'(

[vague elbow]

finished gold stake on magic deck. that was a terrifying run. the card sharp was added right before ante 8 btw

[tranquil steppe]

The Balatro gods decided 3 poly stencils was necessary

[primal epoch]

holy CRT effects T-T

[rancid niche]

You need about a thousand more highcards

[vague elbow]

chat, what deck do i goldstake next? i have red blue yellow green painted and anaglyph left

[gentle island]

I always love ghost or plasma

[fervent wolf]

Mrow!~ >_<

[vague elbow]

... thats not one of the decks i have left...

[gentle island]

Damn I didnt read the last word lol

I mean I am on my final one, red, but of those I think I quite enjoyed yellow

it makes early game so much more smooth

[eager summit]

feeling cute, might win this run later

[vague elbow]

alright, thats my next one then

[eager summit]

got the photochad

[naive heath]

i hope you lose it next round

[minor portal]

I have some pretty bad news for you.

[eager summit]

nah

[tranquil steppe]

What a fun run! Very nice!

[naive heath]

L

[dreamy creek]

im going to post a meme in game discussion

[safe moat]

Should I grab the squoker for scoring more but not as high

[fringe nebula]

you already have foil

[safe moat]

Still need to beat the run

[tranquil steppe]

His poly might be better than what supernova is at?

[pale wolf]

guys what should i replace for the dice, also crazy seed

[tranquil steppe]

There’s also card sharp

[safe moat]

Card sharp = too much score

[faint linden]

Squimbo can be powerful depending on when and how you use it

[tranquil steppe]

Card sharp + burglar is great

[tranquil steppe]

Smiley or scary

[safe moat]

I’m trying to win the run with lowest high score hand I can play

I already took squimbo

[tranquil steppe]

Oh

[fringe nebula]

oh

[atomic trout]

🤮

[safe moat]

yes it’s a challenge

[atomic trout]

Pants is strong

[dull umbra]

First cryptid experience 😭😭😭😭😭

[dawn sedge]

can riff raff create another riff raff with showman

[ebon mountain]

guys is this a good ending?

[upbeat cairn]

hell on earth

[dull umbra]

😭😭😭😭😭

[eager summit]

so fun!

[fierce finch]

Are my cards in order or should I put them in a different way?

[safe moat]

Looks fine to me

[atomic trout]

I'm done for

[robust flame]

what seed is that

[pale wolf]

YMVLVX3C

[outer rover]

It’s been a while since I’ve actually gotten a good seed

[pale wolf]

Wait is that a V or a U ?

Anyway you get the scary face and the smile face first ante, but the scary face you have to turn poly using the spectral card from the spectral deck

[outer rover]

Why is this not a flush?

[void lintel]

4oak takes priority iirc

[pale wolf]

I lost to the head at ante 10

[past portal]

I won with this

[reef oyster]

what rainbow card is that

[past portal]

Madness

[tawdry rock]

joker idea:
shitty mime
1 in 2 chance for a 1 in 6 chance for a 1 in 4 chance to retrigger all card held in hand abilities

[past portal]

Each small or big blind increases by X1.5, But a random joker is eliminated

[tawdry rock]

by x0.5

not 1.5

and the joker only gets murdered if its not eternal

[reef oyster]

i see does it not get rid of other madness though

[tawdry rock]

and you dont even have to feed it jokers

[past portal]

Right, I forgot

[tawdry rock]

if its by itself itll still go up

[outer rover]

Should’ve picked up the shoot the moon I saw earlier

[tranquil steppe]

Because the game won’t let you select which one you want to pick even when it qualifies as both

[tawdry rock]

the game picks from whats higher in the base hand list, even if your flush is level 60000 and your 4oak is level 1, if it sees that you got a 4oak it'll favor that

just deselect one queen and take one of your jacks

[twin lantern]

Mail in rebate is awesome

[reef oyster]

what category is best

between heart spade and that

stuff

[serene forge]

sell bloodstone sell baron get chad and gc

[reef oyster]

r any of these worth copying and getting rid of the other four

[serene forge]

no

[serene forge]

spade and club

[past portal]

Late, I already lost that game, because I was unlucky in the discards

[serene forge]

usually

[serene forge]

no you lost because someone told you to spec into baron 😭

baron sucks

[past portal]

I didn't choose baron

I was playing at the end of the photochad

[reef oyster]

how do u have the stats of the card below it

[outer rover]

Do I keep idol or take STM

[cursive lion]

jokerdisplay mod by the talented nh6574

https://github.com/nh6574/JokerDisplay

[safe moat]

This is so lucky

[cursive lion]

is idol atm important?

like it is able to let you hit the king or queen of clubs easily

[outer rover]

I just picked it up then rerolled and got STM

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[outer rover]

You could have bloodstone and 5 glass queen of hearts

and if you play them bloodstone won’t do anything while all the glass breaks

[vocal rose]

shoot the moon would contribute absolutely nothing to your score

[sharp plank]

Ik you do

[tawdry rock]

did you THINK they still had that same shop screen after an HOUR and EIGHT minutes

[lunar zealot]

Obviously :smug

[bleak gale]

had an insane run earlier where i was getting into the billions before ante 8 and i won and accidentally pressed new run instead of endless

[outer rover]

+mult thru the roof tho

or maybe it’s just a placebo because I would be replacing an onyx agate with it

[vocal rose]

its not going anywhere

you have trib

[tawdry rock]

top 10 saddest

[serene forge]

idk dude i was playing project sekai with my girlfriend

[serene forge]

good

[tawdry rock]

username checks out

[outer rover]

Dude pressed new run, chose what deck and stake he wanted, pressed play, all on accident

[serene forge]

plus mult is useless

you have trib

[outer rover]

Tru

[serene forge]

lol

[serene forge]

yeah

i love my girlfriend a lot 💜

[vocal rose]

they're also complete opposite jokers

one is held in hand and the other is on scored

[tawdry rock]

watch out for evil and intimidating horses

[bleak gale]

it was on playstation lmao wouldnt let me do anything

yawn

[reef oyster]

so like how do i make my madness not destroy another joker

[tawdry rock]

eternal jokers

[outer rover]

Should I pick up sock tho 👀

[tawdry rock]

starts at black stake

[bleak gale]

eternal

[vocal rose]

100%

[reef oyster]

how do i get that

[vocal rose]

get rid of idol

[tawdry rock]

otherwise youre screwed

[tawdry rock]

black stake and higher

[vocal rose]

idol goes

[outer rover]

Don’t listen to them, invest in the chad method of just skipping everything

[outer rover]

Bet

[cursive lion]

hold on check this out

[reef oyster]

isnt that just useless since the mutiplyer wouldnt increase

[bleak gale]

ok

[tawdry rock]

worst strategy of all time

[lunar zealot]

That's why it's the chad method because it involves self destruction for no reason

[bleak gale]

holy moly

one sec

[cursive lion]

that's a lot of bioshocks

[bleak gale]

i own it on every console you can, those are just my physical ones

not counting bioshock 2? think my boyf has that one

also have a signed coaster from frank fontaine himself

[cursive lion]

thats awesome

[heady fable]

Assuming you can reliable get idol and flush five, yes 100%

[cursive lion]

is maggie your name or a character i haven't gotten into the games yet

[bleak gale]

im maggie lol

[cursive lion]

the simpson

[bleak gale]

i got into them really because of a hurricane

[bleak gale]

i am 1 year old

[slow grail]

Got 3 more gold stickers just now. I’m so close 💀

[reef oyster]

for campfire when it says each card sold what cards
