he is below eternal stake
1
Take the left
its first stake only got the lovers rn
I mean ante 1
just finished the very first blind on a new run
madness honestly
white stake scaling with madness is fine
dude i dont know whats madness 😭
ok take the madness lol the one on the right
also fun
right is madness?
yup
may i know why?
destroys a joker but scales x1 every ante
It scales on its own
doesnt NEED to destroy a joker
Its name
You dont do anything
0.5 not 1 but still looks like pretty good
it scales very quickly! 0.5 per blind not boss blind though
Which one do i choose?
constellation
0.5x every small and big blind
money money money
Each ante has 2 blinds
so baaaasically 1x every ante
This run is going places I didn't expect
Got constant campfire fuel from cardomancer and seals lul
if they dont skip
also when it scales every ante, does it also remove a joker EVERY time? or only whenever taken?
Hate photo
nah
Everytime
Except boss blind
😹
thanks! ill go play :)
I just know that 50 chip foil did more during the run that flowerpot itself
i didnt even realized this is a straigh flush lol
should i go for a flush?
Copium
flush of clubs
ye should i go for flush of clubs
opinions? imo i dont need him
Negative Andy 😭
how do your planets look like
tbf a source of unconditional xmult qould be good
context hat
IT DOESNT??????????????/
only flush lvl 2
holy shit what do i do guys
Runner is cool, it gives +mult and its chips are scaling
flush?
i am in shambles.
No 😭😭😭
It only really works with sealed cards
yeah i'd say runner would be reccomended
No downside in taking it ngl
throw a flush lol
oops i pinged
bet bet
it only works with bosses that directly affect your scoring on played hand
I hate him and love him
384/450 score
what do i do here?
discard for a flush!
discard what?
Straights are underrated
cuz i see i got 3 hearts and 3 diamonds
win
err prolly the hearts and clubs keep the diamonds
Spades*
big hands are gonna get buffed dw
sure and ill also do that 1 spade
Do you want AJ? You can sell it you probably have the levels now
spade and club
However idk how good AJ is with 0 retriggers
Do I sell dna here?
oh yeah gg
You won no matter u play
I ended up finding a Hologram, I think I'm covered until Ante 8 boss with it
oh my god where is the retrigger effect
What is DNA contributing towards copying? And do you have enough of it to play Flush Fives
What is this 😭
Yeah you need a Sock or Dusk
idk i've been rolling like 5000000000 times lol
what do i get?
nasty?
also imma prob stop asking every round what do i do unless i feel like im stuck lol
Sell DNA maybe and work towards Tarot
😭
probably save money or buy celestial pack
Damn i cant put gifs
oh i forgot. what abt pack?
Planet
bet bet
Find mercury or pluto
Flush fives copying the polychrome queen for a few times so I can draw the hand quite easily
no hope in local thunk
got mercury
What do I do here
Actu was supoosed in early dec😭😭😭
Just cope with the straight?
Also i love straights in nebula
Mercury
bet ty
shhhh do not jinx it.. we dont want the gta vi situationn again
i don't think you're going to get credible advice when he's suggesting you to spend your money right away early game
Nah nvm I always forget that grimbo hates discards
i just know to not buy any jokers haha... unless theres an indestructible joker of some way
And I am only doing discards
does he know?
I thought he asked in general what to buy
im fucking clueless sir
I dint know what ante he is at
TOUGH CHOICE LADS
1 lol
The constellation is only at 1.5x
its okay play until its black stake
square
yikes... i think it has to be the rental square...
the screenshot was there
ayy i got a straight at boss blind
I didnt focus
it gives you FOUR chips.
albeit cropping off other things
yeah
there we go boss blind finished in 3 rounds :)
save or celestial pack/packs?
bye bye bbc
save
bet bet
dear god its all photochad
Just how much did you score last time
when should i use "the lovers" tarot?
no clu
oh no 9 nanlet jokers 🥀
after next update
Next time just memorize the number
bfr pls
If you feel like u can score
ideally you use it as a consumable blocker
if you want easier flushes or flowerpot/ancient joker
wait guys i can explain...!
bet bet ty
skip, losing 1.5x mult for a blue joker fella aint worth it
well
got 246 score from a simple pair
you're kinda restricted to higher mult scaling planets
Beat my second gold stake run
lovers and star when it comes to consumable blocking and nothing else
i kinda dont know what do to with this obelisk lol
1076/800 score
photochad here photochad there
sun*
Hey if it works
HUGE MONEY
ok fair
I can’t remember the last time I seriously used sun
how much mult did you get on the canio
no it does not 💔
so what exactly do i save my dollars for? im confused?
9x
if i cant get jokers
nice! :D
Planets
planets and tarots
and im supposed to save my money for later on
for celestial packs and tarrots and normal packs
standard
so i should just buy celestial and mega celestial packs whenevr i can?
And planet voucher
yea
first time use of planet merchant
tarots and planets mainly
aight
Mercury and saturn is good
saturn and earth / mercury
would do mars and saturn
no obviously its mercury and skip
hmm so mars and saturn or mercury and saturn
💔
is this jokerless
atleast saturn
imma go mars cuz saturn buffs straight and im not straight
full house sucks, there's not a single joker specifically for full house
Saturn and mercury ig
technically you can pivot once throwback shows up somewhere along with whatever mult source
GREEN JOKER AT ANTE FOUR?? AM I THAT DESPERATE?
if it's jokerless i'd do mars and saturn in that order
madness white stake
He has madness
looks like it
🤓
jimbo carry
just 4 hands to be better than joker
looks like their first time playing
do NOT talk bad about my homie 💔
jimbo is a legendary if you assemble the exodia of legendaries
dont diss him
Has anyone ever lost to the House?
dr house
well yeah it always wins remember
to my memory no
on a streak run ive died once under scoring source neglect
Ahh the uncles are finally gone
Rerolled the boss from the plant to the pillar (my main score was glass cards)
what does it do
They suddenly flocked in my house to ask if i can hack into someone's phone
Stupid shit
That's a start
Ohh..
Nat negative runner
apparantly it gives you x100 mult per hand played - x.05 mult per discard
Keep upgrading man
dude
Yeah thats why you need chips
baby's first 900 score
What are these jokers
||The nefarious flint glares at you||
549 overflow
they make jokes
These jokers do be joking
should i buy standard packs?
yerp
Blue seal op
tale as old as time
Unless you have Hologram
look for seals purple and blue
Purple seals are also cool
o67
tf is that
You can deck fixing into playing 4oak
its so balatrover
You should open the packs if you have plenty money
the mighty plant has come to destroy my cards
for blue seals, purple seals, gold cards, etc
im gonna try and unlock satellite today
Finding for blue sealks helps
i Neeeeed to
ohh okay thanks chinese guy
um
Japanese
let me say it before he does
yeah
"its kanji"
im vietnamese actually
was fun while it lasted
má
shoot the moon my beloved
people these days with all their countries and scripts and languages...... maaaan why cant it all be murican and english 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
to mods: obviously a joke
o7
nah im literally in saigon rn idk what youre talking about
that was so painful xd
i only have 1 brainstorm until ante 17 and got level 2 reroll at ante 24
I mean there is the other guy who is american Vietnamese
Im not saying it was you
this dude?
😐
Idk about him
i think he got some kings mate
I forgot that man's name
i qualify
That's a run
will be traveling to da nang this may
My profile does say im vietnamese tho
Why surprised
😭
I literally wrote it in the most vietnamese way
You
when 😭
Few mins ago
😭
honestly sure
just picked up a sly honestly not bad
Acrobat is a must take
should i get this voucher?
no
yes!
what about this pack
also yes
just screenshot the whole screen pls
also I don't recommend cropping important contextual information when asking for advice
how much money do u have
real
this is fine
i’d still save
buying the voucher means that standard packs have more editions and it can help with flat mult or chips
options settings
you're going to run out of steam soon if you don't manage econ via interest cap
well
Why does he care
ill skip ts round tho
exactly
Madness kills everything
madness run?
“i’ll skip this shit round” 
only planets are needed
im talking about buying the standard packs not jokers
also too expensive
remove shit
ts means “this shit”
well same thing
good boy
alright man
the day people use aave correctly is the day I get a 10 streak in balatro
we dont talk amymore
porwdasssssssssss
what is aave
decisions decisions...
Castle goated
castle cuz bigger
And u dont have gold sticker on it
why is two pair so shiit
sorry my castle got burnt down
Cuz you didnt upgrade it
african american vernacular english !
like slang and phrases black people made
its generally the second best poker hand in the highest difficulties of the game
stakes and decks and what not
more joker options and twice as much chip scaling for less than twice the difficulty of pulling that hand
with some caveats
is this too much oops? 🥀
whatever
wym, it has great chips
waht is it
Means Cumbersome
what
no sell the trib for the oops and buy the gros michel
Caveat
i just cooked some BULLSHIT
well its not !
3 oops basically makes the lucky money proc half the time, almost
sadly that run is cooked cause you'll never be able to use glass cards
He sure found it shit cuz he didnt upgrade it
a warning before huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Lmao
i think your english could use a factory reset
👅
Do I take credit card 😭
a certain risk factor
HOW DOES BALATRO WORK
Gamble it
wdym
its gambling for kids
Next round is 9000 Needle
not really
showman will clutch it with 3 blueprints and another dusk
have faith
You really need it ig
well no not at all
win
and big numbers
5418

I asked the other guy

7kish on straight
I have no levels either btw
I mean like

have you been skipping
Credit card allows you to win
whats an aj
ancient joker

you haven’t been skipping right
I think it's possible? I have Castle for chip stacking
what do i get
ditch madness, ancient jonkling
what hand r you doing @boreal ocean
the voucher
I think I'll gamble
clearance and ancient jonkling, it is foretold
Planets
mainly pairs cuz lvl 4
it is never too late for ancient jonkling
do i buy green hex buy rebait
oretty
thats mad😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes
Or actually
Sell hex
For 2 money
bruh too late
@boreal ocean maybe try another hand that scales better mult wise
ok flush
toilet flush
Playing green joker with mail is annouing to me
bruh
3oak maybe
more so talking about straights and 4ok
I just dont like it
straights yes
But if its the only way i can score
I canr be picky
time to flush the toilet
Flush is weak
who we anhkinh
fuck you
why me
fuck you
why me
could you technically copy madness and do double madness 🤔
dont ankh
They destroy each other
if they’re both eternal yes
they fight to the death
Thats how mandess works
because thats madness’ effect
They destroy
but im greedy...
you’ll learn soon
But honestly you will win no matter what
fuck tarot cards
why
1 flush level will carry
contrarianism
Shy dont you just
thats wild
oh no three rentals what am i going to do
chill bro he just asking
toilet flush time
I just think whats the fun when he asks everything
cant he be curious
let unc be curious
jinx
i owe you a soda 😞
Vagabond pivot?
jimbo pivot
no its okay ❤️🩹
Your so right
vegasbond pinis
we fully renting the joker roster
econ in genuine shambles
Not stonks 🙁
got so lucky that 8 ball actually worked
not with TWO rebaits heh.
and it did twice in a row
with six dollars i think NOT brohemian rhapsody 😭 ✌️
1 more question the face down cards does sorting by rank/suit work on them or no?
And not in a 50 card deck
with TWO rebaits we are making stonks broseph
Yes, it does, order goes K to Q to J
yes it does, and it helps you figure which cards they are
good boy
well 1 card gives me 10 bucks and i sold the misprint so its 3 dollers
also the order goes spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds
But then -15 by the end of round
Nvm thought you had 5 rental, not 3. Dang I’m oblivious 😭
what do i do?
Discard all but hearts
so ik that 1 face down is red
SYNERGY! SYNERGY! SYNERGY! SYNERGY!
but another one is idk
get a million genies to give you billions of dollars
you still have the lovers
use it on the queenn
Damn it, I was so close to winning, I accidentally reset the obelisk =w=
egg
i just had it in my shop lmao
I hate Bloodstone
wise
congraduraisins
Knife
nice job
Little bro got his big brothers to get him a gold sticker, so cute
I hate TRIBE
i haven't had a SINGLE lucky card trigger this entire run by the way
generational throw
Yesssssss!! Major record update!! e54!!!
I should've saved it for the last hand, but I just couldn't hold back, so I put everything on the first hand.
Obelisk is at 4x, holo is at 5x, pants are +44, can I afford selling one of them to get the credit card?
is there a channel to ask about modding here?
early game high score balatro is actually pretty fun
or do i just ask here
It is one of the strangest build I have that took me to ante 8
oh wow thats a really really really good standard pack lmao
you'd have to see if you're able to make up for the difference in that short timeframe
who would have guessed dagger is good
Lerroooy jenkins
slay the princess spades my beloved
Torching the deck 
i panic bought a supernova there tho
could have done without
W
i swear this photo is temporary
??????????? bro wha
You cant be real
It should be vice versa
Cuz
it's true though...
Sock is more expensive
You cant describe something as the budget of the other thing
When that thing has higher price
okay it's the deluxe really fancy but actually useless photochad
early game high score is kind of a fun deckfixing race
Well
Isnt it what multiplayer is
that's why I kinda like both
There is actually a tournament where boss blind exists
.-.
My goat, who was banned from the server played in it
So i still remember it
😭
F my goat stop playing balatro now
high stakes are really fun but after the 5th consecutive pair build, I wanna engage more with my favourite mechanic, so I either play high score or zodiac deck
you got trading card
that is possibly x5 or maybe a lil less in 5 rounds
trading card is the one i sold
🤓
well, gl on finding a hanged man
Gg
oh hi photo
canio you're my favorite joker, you know? but right now i cant keep you baby boo
you gotta go shawty
shoutouts to constelation for being the best uncommon joker for high stakes
one day a photo-chadder will grow into a pair builder
i wish bruh
until he becomes both
chat what deck do i play
make chad an uncommon
anaglyph
dont say black or nebula
silly!
that wouldn't solve much of anything
it's still a joker you almost always take
ill play the lazy deck
just slightly less often because it shows up slightly less
waiter! waiter! less gameplay more skips!
true tho
I don't think chad needs a nerf in all honesty, sometimes joker can just be generalists and that's ok
make chad free abd always appear first shop
aw dangit not another flush build!
opened 5 arcana packs 0 spectrals that add cards yo my hand
making it triggee on the first and second card is good enough for it
2x hologram
this is actually another flush run
chad doesn't need a nerf
it's still valuable due to being unconditional but you need more enhancements to make as much use of it
at least its nto pair
photochad is not that good
photochad isn't as much of a consideration for this
chad pn its own is a utility not a game winner
not all jokers need to be niche or even situational, having reliable jokers on all states of the run is fine, specially since most jokers are niche
it's a rare combo of 2 jokers that still has it's problems
and it will still be a reliable generalist
just less overpowered of one
nothing needs nerfs outside of pairs/mercury and maybe hologram
TEMPORARY ANCIENT JOKER NOOOOO
why hologram of all things
maybe my view is busted because i play a lot of ghost
but hologram scales beyond insanity for so little
i'd argue rebate and yorick need nerfs because they're powerdul even with blue stake
but not hologram
ah yeah rebate can get nerfed
yorick is fine its a legendary
Make chad the multiplayer chad
it'll likely get an indirect nerf from large hands being more viable as a result of the extra discard
maybe if pairs are nerfed hologram gets nerfed naturally
because hologram fucks with bigger hands
the other legendaries need you to change how you play
It nerfs photochad combo
yorick kinda just needs you to keep discarding
But doesnt nerf chad that much
99999999 what is your relationship with cloud nine
canio doesnt change a thing tho, you just open more packs and hungmen/erosion and inshallah
2nd best econ after rebate
but it needs you to specifically destroy face cards
checks out
i hate anaglyph actually im going to stop playing
rebate is the only one I 100% agree on nerfing, but yea, yorrick has a good case for it
which have a large amount of econ-related jokers that synergize with them
i mean canio is like a better glass joker
heck if its up to me i would make it 0.5x per face card destroyed and make it rare
i don't think that's necessary
perkeo aside none of the legendaries is game changer gameplay wise
whyd you do that
well, chicot removes boss blinds from the game
they do their own thing which makes you interact with the game differently
perkeo is the only potentially exciting one
Perkeo is actually blueprint and brainstorm but works on consumables
that's the point i'm making
pretty much
and its very versatile
and versatile jokers are fun
literally winning with 0 chips to spare
it also helps value generation by filtering tarots
yeah perkeo is a lot of stuff
but either way yorick still has far less gameplay interaction than the rest
yesterday i had a run perkeo copying steel
for steel joker
too bad i got viollet vesseled
Agree
Yorick's gameplay is like
Nothing
and the blue stake rework is guarranteed to make it an instant win
Wtf is that joker
that's why i call for a slight nerf on it
its still a borderline instant win
The problem is not it being strong or weak
The problem is
It has no gameplay
If it has no gameplay, just make it a jimbo
Dont turn it into legendary
isnt legendary supposed to be legendary is strength and effect
it will be more costly to discard things when larger hands become more powerful
yeah it doesnt change gameplay
but its game changing
by almost guaranteeing a win
but i still think it'd be overtuned in 1.1
And dont you find it worse
Bloodstone you tease me
worse than what?
I hate crimson heart
if i wanna i pray for yorick
"i want to lose"
Genuinely thinking about taking off the spade
And is game changing
From +mult to xmult
a lot of jokers have no gameplay
Thats game design problem
Yeah like jimbo
I love blood
And it does nothing
I can’t help it
Oh yeah it gives +4
jimbo does something tho
No
FCK OFF
Thats what a joker without gameplay should do
legendary and xmult jokers are supposed to be more complex than the rest
<@&1133519078540185692>
guarantees winning ante 1 without costing shit
<@&1133519078540185692> look free money
<@&1133519078540185692> immolate this clanker at instant
who the fuck names themself "ANNOUNCEMENT"
Well
<@&1133519078540185692> come and get em
Well yeah it takes a joker slot
ive come to make an announcement
They need it
but we have non complex xmults like cav, blackboard, acrobat
Moon
I wanna say something offensive but yeah
It should do something
Who names themselves that
how do you like that obama
Acrobat has penalty you know
Bots
You idiot!!
cavendish needs you to find a destroy another joker for it to be available and cavendish and acrobat are conditional
I have no idea if this wins or not and I am terrified because these are three gold stickers
blackboard is also getting an indirect nerf with the blue stake rework
It may takes away much money
icecreaming my spare trousers
how much per hand?
xmult does nothing early game
Yeah thats why
What’s yorik and canio at
that could probably win
Im saying
no way to know but to send it
Acrobat has penalty
around 200 so I'm not sure if it's quite enough or if it's just going to be
When u take it early
Honestly yeah just go for it
It is the penalty
jokers that needs change
rebate
flower pot
boots
seance
matador
thats like barely enough
If ya lose then ya lose, if ya dont then yahoo
buuut you have no choice
Flower pot actually fine as is
Might get lucky
flower pot could be 3 suits
Its gameplay is annoying
its absolutely not
very tough condition
But its not broken
doesnt mean its good
actually one of the worse jokers
it's usually a scuffed order and it's fine at that job
but 3 suits is more reasonable for 3x mult
dr spectered suggestion is nice
From +mult to xmult. I was forced to use my non-gold invis joker and still lost
And the argument being made here is that yoric needs a rework, because it has no gameplay, and its broken
2x for 2 suits, 3x for 3 4x for 4
lfg
That game design flaw
Rip run
I was so scared to reroll
Congrats on the three stickers
Flower pot, despite annoying is not flawed by design
GGs, also insane Soul luck!!
Vessel gave me trauma
i'd say that jokers that need too much time to enable could use a rework too
Bailiff, whack his peepee
like idol for example
Flowerpot is straight ahh
cool last arcana pack i got soul
yorick
yorick needs a rework because it’ll be too good next update
lmfao
This run was fucking crazy I didn't see a malt joker until like 3 boss blinds i was running of a holo banner and yorick
$8 for one of the bottom 5 jokers in the game??? Hell yeah! We love flowerpot chat
Why now brainstorm
flowerpot isn’t bottom 5
It’s definitely at the bottom for sure
You shoulda seen the start of the run it was VERY tight. I was lifting off fooling mercury cards 
I hate crimson heart
Bottom 5? Not so much
I was having to play pairs so banner would trigger didn't discard cards so I can stack yourick
i got to blue stake vru
LOL I feel that, nice job getting past it
the struggle might have begun
I've had all the legendaries gold stickered for a while luckily
A joker that is pretty much only compatible with splash and maybe seeing double (uncommon), requires you play four cards and suits, costs $8 and is ruined by several boss blinds? Yeah flowerpot is bottom 5
whats the bottom 5, showman idol and who
Like 8ball
Should i take the bloodstone?
showman, idol, baron, seance and maybe splash
8ball is not bottom 5
Oh so you are the same as me
and it’s still able to serve a usuable gs niche
maybe the 3oak +mult joker
Baron is not bottom 5
but these are bottom 5
🤣
baron is bottom 5
Splash?!
Matador
bloodstone should be in there
?
it's too expensive to be used in high stakes
I've got most of the hard ones done I think
which i assume is the topic here
matador is very decent
Matador is great econ what
matador is great its just the game doesnt explain what it does
Matador is like the best shit ever or just absolutely worthless and no in-between
matador gives as much money as an investment tag early on depending on the boss
if you get a "suit is disabled" boss its free money
That straight joker is mad you’ve never picked him up
ante 2 i got liquidation
that's far more useful of a niche that anything else down there
lmao???
As someone who used to play nothing but straight it's kind of wild actually
I'm pretty sure I had it stickered on my old save
but you don't miss a round/shop
Fuck it I’m taking blood
Arcana?
I did I get rid of the green joker
red card and go next
not even close
also splash aint that bad, its just not something you wanna use mid late game
I guess some of you guys like matador but I despise it
foil fist and club joker I'd probably just save for interest
i dont like green joker doesnt mean its not great
the way it works is unintuitive
I don’t like seeing double
liking or despising jokers has nothing to do with viability
that's the complaint i have with it
If u want to make argument, say something
matador isnt weak it's just a design blunder
But that’s just my opinion
FUCK YOU THE PLANT
THATS RIGHT YOU CANT STOP ME YOU LITTLE GOBLIN
actually i still died FUCK
I hate that damn joker I hate it so much It's useful when it's useful but damn I hate it
Wow that early on?
I don't like flowerpot because it's mostly not viable
it doesn't work on the things you would assume it does and even knowing the basic pattern of what it works with (card debuffs for example) there are still inconsistencies
having to open the wiki to remember what boss blinds it triggers on is just bad design
like it works against ox but not tooth
Play it with straights
how does that make any sense
What about reward card
but a distinction needs to be made
Oh I agree, I love splash but after ante 4 it’s kinda useless
loyalty should be a value generator
ante 4 is the first ante it can appear on btw
plant doesn't counter shoot the moon
hiker should be mult 👀
it's better for the theming
No?
Loyalty card is also trash
I’ve found it on ante 2 before
its not
every three purchases in the shop you get a free something
No
loyalty card should be reworked
it’s pretty bad
It just doesnt activate every blind
it has the same use as mr bones and luchador
it has its uses
Consider it as a clutch method
than lucha and bones
stuff like seance has it's uses
I do
not good yes, but trash is something like showman
