[ancient gyro]

edging
the build

[inland helm]

photo + bus 🔥

[ancient gyro]

didn't feel like making the same punch line as my last 5th c++ joker

I just let it rip

[naive marten]

Riff raff just gave me the same two jokers two rounds in a row

[robust lance]

Build around that joker now

[gentle island]

Fun runs, scaling jokers are no joke

[brave goblet]

4s get retriggered by hack

[wintry ice]

not sure if that's a better incentive than making face card econ jokers easier to pivot to

[brave goblet]

ig so but that's face cards for you

bus and anti plant tech ftw

[harsh relic]

goated lineup

[molten badger]

i remember people talking about john balatro

[faint linden]

Had a Hackonacci run with Cavendish on Ghost yesterday. That was fun

[brave goblet]

did you at least make a couple of red seal glass to go with it

[faint linden]

Yep. Friend of mine since I'm introducing to the game: Why are you making fives?

[pale ridge]

Got blue stake out of the way

[brave goblet]

insert "does he know" gif

[vestal copper]

peam run

[brave goblet]

1.2m violet vessel awaits ye

[terse vale]

haven’t heard peam in a while ,,

[vestal copper]

stop posting about peam

[terse vale]

its peam .

[stiff ore]

not a bad start to this run lol

[pale ridge]

Also had a poly credit card but I sold it

[faint linden]

I showed him after I played a Flush Five. Shit blew his mind. Had Chad so I used a Polychrome Glass 5 as my first card and he was speechless

[brave goblet]

negative astronomer and faceless damn

jealous

[brave goblet]

his mind'll be blown even more when all of his glass cards break simultaneously

[faint linden]

Ghost gave me Aura in the shop

Aura is a fun one to play with

[pale ridge]

Wish I could transfer my mobile data to pc

[brave goblet]

just re-beat it on mobile

it'll go way faster now that you know everything you do know

[molten badger]

if there was a way to access the saves folder you could but idk

[brave goblet]

sorry on pc*

[stiff ore]

HAH THANK YOU JUDGEMENt

[pale ridge]

Hologram flush was peak

[molten badger]

ayo 1 in 1k

[brave goblet]

bull thinks he's helping 💔

bull thinks he's on the team

[stiff ore]

yeah it was a free tag so i grabbed it lol

[faint linden]

You theoretically can on an Android by using adb and USB debugging, combined with the Material Files file manager

[stiff ore]

but hopefully ill be grabbing money soon so i think itll pull its weight

[earnest pelican]

I love when this happens lol, it's always funny

[molten badger]

oh yea i know about usb debugging

[pale ridge]

Too much work

[faint linden]

How I got Cryptid on my phone

[pale ridge]

Tried once

[faint linden]

Computer engineering degree came in clutch

[sand lily]

So erm, should I only be focusing on chips or mult? How do I plasma deck?

I originally played it by chips maxxing but idk if that's optimal

[pale ridge]

Who has the multilayer server

[brave goblet]

I found an apk online by comparison

good coders write good code, great coders steal great code

[unreal topaz]

one or the other

[pale ridge]

Go all In on chips/mult

[unreal topaz]

chips works if you dont get violet vessel

[brave goblet]

the doc recommends chipmaxxing

[unreal topaz]

if you go full chips and you get violet vessel then you're sad

unless you got like

wee+chad+blueprint

[faint linden]

Unless you have Stuntman

[unreal topaz]

stuntman doesnt cut it

[faint linden]

That's +62,500

[unreal topaz]

and violet vessel is 2.4 million

[faint linden]

I forgot Plasma doubled blinds

[brave goblet]

you need like a thousand chips to score 250k per hand

[faint linden]

I mostly play around with Ghost and Erratic

[unreal topaz]

a thousand is doable, between blue seals, enhanced cards, etc

[brave goblet]

zodiac for me

ye

you will have to use all your hands to beat the finisher going chips ofc

[faint linden]

My only Gold Stake is Checkered and I spammed Flush Houses with tarot shenanigans

[pale ridge]

146 jokers gold staked on checkered only?

[mortal dock]

Perishable jokers blows

[unreal topaz]

i've found the ideal plasma hand is straights/4oak, since with the mult scaling glass cards are a reasonable way to beat violet vessel and the chip scaling is powerful

[unreal topaz]

but those arent feasible every run

[brave goblet]

don't get too attached

make economic decisions, milk them of value, move on

[mortal dock]

That's not why I'm complaining quite the contrary actually literally

[brave goblet]

[mortal dock]

I got a perishable kings baron first shop after throwing a game with the seal joker also perishable

[quick solar]

dead to no cutting again

[unreal topaz]

perishables even manage to feed the pair meta even more since non retroactive scaling +mult can't be perishable

[mortal dock]

Where were you last game and why are you perishable

[wintry ice]

are you trying to do jokerless black deck gold stake

[quick solar]

maybeeee

my best run is only like ante 5

early blue seal gave me hope but ig i just never draw it 😭

[brave goblet]

perishable shortcut

you need to aggressively hang your cards

make sure you can touch 'em all

[faint linden]

C progress, not C++

[warped cradle]

always ankh the stencil

[ancient gyro]

but why though

personally I'm more of a win streak guy

higher probability of not hating myself

[cloud sinew]

BU's black deck gold stake jokerless took a decent amount of attempts iirc

[ancient gyro]

totally not underselling the statement at all

[serene forge]

I hate Plasma Deck

[cloud sinew]

Plasma my loathed

[brave goblet]

he does speedrun starting with plasma and then black lol

[serene forge]

plasma is like inverted black

black deck you know you're going to lose pretty early because the start is so bad

plasma lets you relax a little then crushes you with a 2.4mil vv

it just feels so bad

[cloud sinew]

yeah plasma is deceptively difficult

because of how easy the early game is

[vestal copper]

lmao?

[wintry ice]

plasma is probably the only deck with an effect that makes the lategame harder but makes early easier

well i guess there's green deck too

oh yeah what rank do i use hanged man on

7s i'd guess

this could be barely enough with halu

hm

[vocal rose]

I have stats in 20 minutes

balator time

[vocal rose]

labubu joker

[wintry ice]

oo

even better

[solemn sonnet]

im shooting the moon

[wintry ice]

moment

i guess i could take the gold seal

neat

well it is larger than swash now

okay now idk what to do here

[ancient gyro]

how badly do you need burger

[wintry ice]

idk

i do want to get purple seals to scale purple guy later

so

i think i could affoard to sell burglar

[heady zenith]

Fuck it

[sullen aspen]

me n who👀👀👀👀

[wintry ice]

i thought that was sakuya for a second

bruh

[heady zenith]

Yea idk why they made Marisa not blonde

[wintry ice]

i don't even think i take this

[shell dagger]

surely it’s better than hallucination

Prob not with stunt

[heady zenith]

There's no burger

[wintry ice]

i do have paint brush but like

[shell dagger]

damn burglar is like a x2 tho

more cos csharp

[terse vale]

is hallucination that good to keep over burglar hallu is like B for me

did I say A last time for hallu

well

somehow I agree with both

[lament crystal]

I have 8 jokers left to gold stake.

One of which is diet cola. Should I try to ghost deck and hex it or use double tag deck to try and get it neg

[wintry ice]

i was valuing it's synergy with william afton a bit

[terse vale]

do the deck you’re best with

[wintry ice]

but yeah selling it was probably a better call

[terse vale]

anaglyph this late is useless

[shell dagger]

Just do a run that wins with 4 jokers that makes loads of money

[wintry ice]

because needle is uh

[terse vale]

o no

[ancient gyro]

welp

[wintry ice]

man what the hell

[ancient gyro]

ok hallulu can die

oh

nvm

well

[shell dagger]

burglar..

[ancient gyro]

🥀

[shell dagger]

my goay

[wintry ice]

i thought people already saw that i sold burglar

[ancient gyro]

all year

[wintry ice]

🥀

[ancient gyro]

running while texting

[wintry ice]

oh hey my dignity is saved

[ancient gyro]

sucks

[lament crystal]

I think that's easier said then done on gold stake

[wintry ice]

what are you late for something

[shell dagger]

resetting for hex cola is easier?

[lament crystal]

Time consuming but definitely

[ancient gyro]

jogging at the park

😐

[wintry ice]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[shell dagger]

i did 4x1mile just there

locked in

[wintry ice]

probably not with stuntman

[terse vale]

its possible! if someone like me can do it then anyone can

[sullen aspen]

stuntman handles chips

idt wee gets over stuntman at that point of the game

[ancient gyro]

still too much snow over here so I couldnt run for pb

[shell dagger]

weeSUCKS

[lament crystal]

Take that back!

[lament crystal]

We love wee!

[shell dagger]

imo no

[ancient gyro]

too early

[sullen aspen]

idk

[rancid niche]

Right? kinda risky

[shell dagger]

fist is so good tho

[terse vale]

idk

[sullen aspen]

if u get hologram u might wanna consider the voucher

[rancid niche]

And die next ante because I have 0 econ

[ancient gyro]

that's going to kill him

[sullen aspen]

thats why I said idk

holo is a risky pick up there

up to u

[terse vale]

sell those two, buy fist, buy holo, you’d be at 19 dollars, and this is the round before the boss blind

hmmmm

[rancid niche]

Boss is extra large

Soooo Idk

[ancient gyro]

you're fine

[terse vale]

its just like 4,000

if I remember

[rancid niche]

Yeah it is

[dense stag]

this run is running

[ancient gyro]

4k with three mult sources is doable with 5 hands

800 isnt a demanding task

[terse vale]

I would honestly take it and just keep it as a deadslot

[wintry ice]

this is livable i have like a trillion random planet levels

[rancid niche]

So I'm not taking holo

[ancient gyro]

nope

[rancid niche]

Okayy thanks

[ancient gyro]

you'll still live

[rancid niche]

I know I'm just trying to plan for the future

[shell dagger]

the future will work out with econ

[sullen apex]

holgram with magic trick right there is free realestate

[terse vale]

gotta make sure you have money for neow tho

[ancient gyro]

oh great 🥀

[wintry ice]

lol

[terse vale]

ohhhh

[wintry ice]

well i do appreciate a rare ft run

[rancid niche]

Dammit I'm taking everything in this shop

[shell dagger]

+31 🥀

[ancient gyro]

no you're not

[sullen apex]

im not joking thats free scaling for hologram

[terse vale]

ooooooh nice

[dense stag]

fuck

[terse vale]

but the rental would kill

[sullen apex]

its the one use case for magic trick thats actually valuable

[terse vale]

and they’d still need money to reroll

[ancient gyro]

zawg he's gonna be out of money to afford anything

[sullen apex]

they have $24

[terse vale]

and fist is a must take

[sullen apex]

rentals not going to kill them

[terse vale]

so thats -8 dollars already

[shell dagger]

they have 16 cos they took fist

voucher and holo to 5

[wintry ice]

+30 mult from fist is big

[shell dagger]

rental to 2

yikes!

[ancient gyro]

simply math

[rancid niche]

Now I'm broke, I think I should sell the lusty fella and the photo to pay for hologram and fist is holographic I think gets me through the boss blind

[shell dagger]

godspeed

[ancient gyro]

you actually listened oh boy

[wintry ice]

murphy using his youtuber status to misinform people 🥀 /j

[ancient gyro]

good thing I don't watch balatubers

[wintry ice]

how many fools into magicians am i gonna get

what's next, lucky cat?

[sullen apex]

???

[ancient gyro]

2

[terse vale]

b

bro

if it were me i’d sell lusty and photo regardless if I took illusion or not but

now you kinda have to

[wintry ice]

yeah fist should cover for scoring until ante 4

[rancid niche]

It's fineee I ended up with 16 bucks this shop and I think I'm good on point scoring for now

[sullen apex]

yall its ante 2, theyre fine lol

[ancient gyro]

it's not about ante 2

it's about opportunity foresight

[sullen apex]

the $1 cards in the shop are going to make up for it with easier scaling than hoping for standards or spectral packs

[ancient gyro]

shop weight of 2 btw

and currently ill short of chips for midgame

[wintry ice]

yeah this is ggs

[terse vale]

also don’t scale hologram with standard packs pls

[ancient gyro]

oh

[terse vale]

you hav illusion so

[boreal ocean]

is there a way to sync progress between steam and mobile

[wintry ice]

do i throw for fun by rerolling into vessel though....

[boreal ocean]

?

[wintry ice]

probably only by manual means

[ancient gyro]

mm throwing

[rancid niche]

Everything is a rental

[dense stag]

guys im having a good baron mime run and im really scared that plant is gonna show up

pray for me

[boreal ocean]

is there a way to sync progress between steam and mobile?

[wintry ice]

well it's not like i have nothing to lose from this

[wintry ice]

probably only by manual means

[terse vale]

probably only by manual means

[ancient gyro]

probably

[boreal ocean]

and how do i sync "by manual means"

save i mean

[terse vale]

mygod

idk

[boreal ocean]

is there a save import feature?

[terse vale]

it finally uploaded

[terse vale]

nah

[boreal ocean]

then how

[shell dagger]

yellow deck supremacy

[boreal ocean]

best deck icl

[terse vale]

probably only by… hmm

well idk

[tulip sapphire]

Is this solid winning chances for ante 4

[terse vale]

I don’t think you can

ya

I hope you find better flat mult

[tulip sapphire]

Would it be crazy to like

Ankh the acrobat

[terse vale]

yes

[brave goblet]

crazy sure, based of course

[wintry ice]

and that's ggs

[terse vale]

yayyyy!

[wintry ice]

great i felt like i learnt something this time

[tulip sapphire]

I should still be fine rigjt just based off my deck having 12 tens 8 of which are spades?

[terse vale]

rental perishable burnt in pack

[wintry ice]

still should not have sold burglar lmao

[terse vale]

probably shouldn’t use it on pair ?

[dense stag]

something even worse showed up

always pay attention to your vouchers folks

[brave goblet]

the psychic pre ante 8: 😆
the psychic post ante 8:

[wintry ice]

moment

[terse vale]

something like 3oak maybe to survive a bit longer

if I can even find 3oak

[wintry ice]

i guess i could take cc just incase

[brave goblet]

specualtive bean (and die)

[terse vale]

actually prolly two pair

[ancient gyro]

everybody is playing black deck today I feel left out

[wintry ice]

bean into selling it is another option

[wintry ice]

aren't you doing black++

also ante 2 grabber

[ancient gyro]

I am dont

[rancid niche]

I think taking holo and magic trick was risky but worth it because I got a run going

[sullen apex]

sometimes you just gotta go w the vibes

[terse vale]

I only started playing it cus I haven’t in a while .. also vic was playing

[ancient gyro]

fine I'll bite

[wintry ice]

misprint gave me +0

[terse vale]

ooooookayyy hello krusty

[sullen apex]

its much more consistent xmult scaling at the cost of your shop being cluttered but your base mult was solid w that holo fist, then the rest of the run can be spent building econ for a couple of rerolls.

people just see magic trick and go "ew bad voucher" but with an early holo gram and your base mult being set its most of the time a free W

[terse vale]

saturn is looking tasty

7 dollars

I think its okay

[wintry ice]

do i choose to keep astronomer

[shell dagger]

it wasn’t the voucher people didn’t like, it was the rental on the hologram

[wintry ice]

ok spectral pack had a gold ace

[shell dagger]

just taking the fist and going next gives you way more opportunities of finding econ and scoring later imo

[tulip sapphire]

So nice

[sullen apex]

and they had plenty of money, if they only had like $14 i wouldnt have suggested both. But its early enough to be recoverable

[terse vale]

no mult rn I may need to take banner fuckkkk

[shell dagger]

they went down to like $2

[terse vale]

eternal banner fuuuuuck !

[shell dagger]

and would’ve stayed there if the next shop wasn’t good

[sullen apex]

please re-read what they said

[wintry ice]

i sold astronomer for ramen

[shell dagger]

i remember what they said

[wintry ice]

and i guess i can sell credit card for bus

[ancient gyro]

the rental was my only concern, I was aware of the puzzle pieces

[terse vale]

about 1000 with an 8 high straight but idk if I can get two

[wintry ice]

🥀

[ancient gyro]

ugh what a slop

[wild merlin]

What do the legendaries' names mean and what are they from?

[terse vale]

I died cus no good hand I may be poo

[rich mauve]

why hologram is the goat

[wintry ice]

history and theatrical plays

[wild merlin]

Bc he is

[fervent wolf]

Ggs

[wild merlin]

Ooo, can you tell me which?

[wild merlin]

Congrats 👏

[wintry ice]

yorick is from hamlet

idk what canio is from

[terse vale]

we run it again

[terse vale]

I think from like a myth ?

[reef kernel]

Pick up a risky holo madness... next arcana has a soul but i take the muhnee... next arcana after that has another soul

[terse vale]

alrighttttt,,

[wintry ice]

jupiter or walkie?

[terse vale]

banana vs crazy

would it be crazy to take crazy

[wintry ice]

not really

banana can die on you

[rancid niche]

I found a rental faceless joker and got lucky by drawing 3 face cards per discard, I then took an economy tag because I was still light on econ but I managed to get interest to the interest cap and now I pretty much have a solid run

Also perishable space joker went crazy

[terse vale]

yea thats my main concern

I neeeed stable early game

[wintry ice]

anyways do i take jupiter or walkie

[sullen apex]

stonks

[terse vale]

walkie for me

[flat terrace]

Walkie

I think it played a part in carrying the run for me

[brave goblet]

took a risky black deck round 1 investment skip, got fib

[rancid niche]

Walkie one shots the boss I guess

[flat terrace]

Especially combined with the Joker that repeats the cards with 2, 3, 4 and 5, I think?

[rancid niche]

Hack

[flat terrace]

Yeah

[terse vale]

lost because I got greedy with rebate yeah i’m replaying that seed

[willow frost]

crazy final hand

gg

[fervent wolf]

Rip

[terse vale]

and I knew it was stupid I just thought I could get another straight

[flat terrace]

Oh yeah, I also just won a run for the first time

[ancient gyro]

guess what

[wild merlin]

Thank you

[wintry ice]

is it happening again

[shell dagger]

stonks

[stuck oasis]

hi everyone i need help the ui and fonts are so small on iphone i cant even play

[shell dagger]

unfortunately there’s not much u can do

[marsh swan]

Congrats on getting blueprint

[terse vale]

I can’t believe i’m debating on which seven to eliminate

[stuck oasis]

are they goint to give us any options in future ?

[shell dagger]

no idea

[stuck oasis]

my god what a joke apple is

the didnt refund the game for me

[vocal rose]

faceless joker is so good

[mossy pumice]

Can I see how many blank vouchers I have purchased?

[flat terrace]

Blueprint?

Oh, one of the jokers?

[vocal rose]

considering moving faceless to A tier

it’s just a worse rebate

and honestly I might rate it higher than rocket

[mossy pumice]

oh i see. pause -> stats -> card stats -> vouchers

[flat terrace]

Aaaand I just lost right after

Yes, I transferred saves to Winlator

[mossy pumice]

it's kinda rude giving me foil on the Gros Michel lol

[ebon condor]

why is fib so high

[vocal rose]

because of how much mult it gives you

[ebon condor]

yeah but maximizing that mult doesn't get you very far

[vocal rose]

uhhhh

what

a two pair with base fib gives you 32 mult

[ebon condor]

its good early game but it doesn't scale super well into the late game

[vocal rose]

yeah, this applies to EVERY other mult joker

[mossy pumice]

I have found a lot of jokers are good for early but don't scale well

[vocal rose]

since you NEED x mult

no +mult joker is scaling enough to survive on its own without x mult

[ebon condor]

the entire draw of scaling +multers is that they do scale well into the late game

[vocal rose]

yes WITH x mult jokers

by themselves, no

[ebon condor]

fib gets hard to get value from past like 4 hits

and even that requires specific hands or retrigger jokers

[vocal rose]

once again you can’t exclude fib when it applies to every +mult joker

which you haven’t refuted yet

[wintry ice]

fib also benefits from glass and steel

[vocal rose]

^

[wintry ice]

works well with 2 pairs and wee too

[vocal rose]

or 8 ball

[shell dagger]

most runs I’d rather have dagger than fib

i think

[vocal rose]

fairs

[ebon condor]

most scaling +multers can get value with faf less effort with a much lower cap

[wintry ice]

i'd say dagger is pretty good too

[unreal topaz]

yeah, fib doesn't get along as well with pairs

[ebon condor]

not that they dont fall off solo

[vocal rose]

^

[wintry ice]

that's honestly the best boss you could have gotten

[ebon condor]

just they provide a stronger base to stand on

[vocal rose]

they aren’t comparable since their usage is different

totally

[rich mauve]

Yes I don't have to deal with it later

[ebon condor]

like 2p with fib is 32 sure, but is a lot more work for similar rewards compared to like supernova pairs

[wintry ice]

free money

[unreal topaz]

i'd say it's more so that you can throw garbage with scaling +mult and score well, while not all 4 hands will be of similar quality with fib

[wintry ice]

oh even more free money because of to do

and on top of all that

[ebon condor]

yea fib is also more reliant on deckfixing and dies to bad draws more easily

[vocal rose]

fib is worse than the big 4 scalers

190%

[ebon condor]

like it is okay but just overrated in your list

[rich mauve]

hmm

[vocal rose]

i don’t think so at all

[rich mauve]

I wonder what game wants me to play today

[unreal topaz]

well you get to save up to 25 for sure

[ebon condor]

id say it is better than like the worst of the +mult scalers

[wintry ice]

i'd put fibb on A- with supernova and dagger

they have similar issues with value

[rich mauve]

yeah I can retire now

[ebon condor]

but above nova and dagger is a major stretch

[unreal topaz]

yeah i can't say fib is above dagger

[woven spire]

worth to take chad here? for lucky procs?

[unreal topaz]

dagger is safer and more versatile usually

[wintry ice]

which is why i'm saying they should be on the same tier

hm

this or golden?

[torpid bridge]

Yes

[vocal rose]

same tier i can see

[wintry ice]

i have a blue seal already

[unreal topaz]

for sure, especially if swash isn't needed for score

[ebon condor]

i dong personally get as much value from fib as anything in a- tbh

[willow frost]

"dagger is safer" mfs when they stop paying attention for two seconds and suddenly 12 blueprints are gone

[cloud sinew]

dong

[woven spire]

would say it kinda is

[unreal topaz]

skill issue

[cloud sinew]

i simply don't let that happen

[ebon condor]

but if yall find it more versatile than i, i think thats reasonable

[wintry ice]

i get more from fib than fist

[willow frost]

thats wise

[ebon condor]

cant argue with the steels argument

[vocal rose]

^

[ebon condor]

im on mobile cut me some slack

[wintry ice]

and if we include other types of jokers, i'd say i get more from fib than everything to the right of the red line

[ebon condor]

actually wait hold on

[wintry ice]

except for maybe acrobat or space joker but idk

[ebon condor]

what are htr and astronomer doing there

[wintry ice]

anyways i'm thinking of taking golden joker

[vocal rose]

both are good at what they do

[wintry ice]

htr is fine there but astro could be B i guess

[unreal topaz]

it is def a better abstract/mystic summit

[rich mauve]

so there are people who get value from astro and space joker 😭

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[ebon condor]

astronomer i can maybe get but the htr placement feels likd overcompensating

[wintry ice]

yeah

[ebon condor]

like its not as bad as people say but its not THAT good

[wintry ice]

it has it's high and lows

but it's overall just useful

[torpid bridge]

Tier list most of the time is ragebait content

🤓

[rich mauve]

the moment I pick up astronomer, every celestial pack dissappears in like next 30 ante

[vocal rose]

not mine

[unreal topaz]

you gotta be patient sometimes, although somewhat recently i had a run with blueprint+space joker and they missed like 12 activations in a row and then hit my high card instead of pairs lol

[vocal rose]

I like being open minded about the positioning

[wintry ice]

do i grab telescope

[vocal rose]

fib will prob be moved down a bit

to A-

[rich mauve]

always telescope

[wintry ice]

i'd be fine if steel got moved down

[ancient gyro]

damn

[ancient gyro]

no

[wintry ice]

two pair has 1 play

[ancient gyro]

not on black

[ebon condor]

DO NOT SLANDER MY GOAT???

[wintry ice]

so maybe nevermind

banana popped

jimbo works as a contingency plan

[dense wraith]

hey chat

last time i came here to ask some questions related to transfering data from a previous android device to a new one, since then google play games has fucked up the entire save on both devices, airplane mode was not used before the save was gone. It may be important to note i never opened the game again on the previous phone before getting the new phone until after i already opened it on the new one, there was even a crash on the old phone before the save was empty. Google play games still has remnants of the previous save from the achievements ive gotten

[cloud sinew]

there isnt a fix for this unless youve rooted your phone

[wintry ice]

let's go

[turbid nova]

Is my castle bugged? I’m getting hearts every round

Or an I just getting lucky

[wintry ice]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

would it be funny

[cloud sinew]

do you have mainly hearts in deck by any chance

[turbid nova]

not particularly

[cloud sinew]

then you're just rolling hearts by chance, it's not bugged.

[turbid nova]

I did use a heart tarot once but my deck is basically the same from the start

[turbid nova]

I've gotten like 4 in a row lol

[cloud sinew]

(1/4)^4 is not unheard of

[turbid nova]

I thought it was supposed to cycle like ancient joker

[cloud sinew]

only ancient joker cant repeat

[oak cloak]

Should I sell burnt joker for brainstorm?

[cloud sinew]

everything else (TDL, Idol, Rebate, Castle) can repeat

[vale widget]

Why tf is gold stake so fucking hard

[turbid nova]

because it's the highest difficulty

[dense wraith]

well fuck google then, whats the point of cloud saves if it instead just destroys the save with no real way of retrieval

[turbid nova]

I see, good to know

[wintry ice]

lilo what do you think

[rich mauve]

also android

if only they had let you see your app files

[cloud sinew]

the cloud saves work perfectly fine 99.9% of the time, it's just the rare times it bugs out that are very destructive

[turbid nova]

ok yeah I got spades now

I was wondering why the suit wasn't changing

[cloud sinew]

you can, but balatro stores the save data past your /root/

[cloud sinew]

which are the system files

[wintry ice]

well nevermind

[rich mauve]

which you can't touch without root, right?

[dense wraith]

after experiencing it just feels like its super technical to not make it screw the save up

[cloud sinew]

I have ~300 hours on mobile and i've never lost any progress (+ive played a lot on trains and when i was travelling internationally via planes)

[flat terrace]

And that's one of the reasons Steam version remains the best version of Balatro for me

No overheating on Winlator
Support for mods
Also grants access to 2 more platforms essentially

Oh yeah, and proper save and file management too

[wintry ice]

how many times am i gonna narrowly be denied blue seal value

[dense wraith]

from what ive seen its always when the game crashes before loading the cloud save that destroys it

[turbid nova]

Castle is goated for this challenge

[clear mulch]

get less deck

[turbid nova]

you can know the suits from sorting the cards

[wintry ice]

adaskldjalksdjlka

[cloud sinew]

sorry for not responding, i intended to but then got sidetracked

ADHD be damned

[clear mulch]

castle is just a good uncommon alltogether id say👍

[ancient gyro]

lilo what do you think

[clear mulch]

maybe she doesnt

[wintry ice]

well it likely wouldn't have mattered much if i took it

[ancient gyro]

you can't talk to Lilo like that

[wintry ice]

probably should have just

[ancient gyro]

oh also

[wintry ice]

used faceless less

[clear mulch]

i didnt mean anything mean

[clear mulch]

just a stupid thing to say

[wintry ice]

i changed deck and immediately got a better run

[ancient gyro]

two impossible things happened to me

smh

[clear mulch]

gg

[ancient gyro]

oh boy pair slop

[cloud sinew]

hello what

i was doing immolate seed searcher stuff

[wintry ice]

man i hate playing the same hand over and over
the abhorrent nebula deck:

[ancient gyro]

idk I just saw vic say it so I tagged along

[high sun]

As someone who plays unmodded mobile is the best version by far

[clear mulch]

the abhorrent blue stake

[turbid nova]

What are these two doing together

[wintry ice]

bruh momento

[cloud sinew]

woah

fist and stm and baron and mime

build actually works!!!!

AND CHIPS VIA CASTLE AND FOIL ASTRO

[wintry ice]

wow that's rare

[ancient gyro]

something is wrong with my flower pot runs I've had wins with them more frequently than one would reasonably claim

[clear mulch]

get mime 👀

[wintry ice]

like the studio that made banjo

[wintry ice]

are we dead serious

bruh

[clear mulch]

discard 2s

[ancient gyro]

I think we go back to black deck

that pot run was a waste of time, zero new stickers 🥀

[wild merlin]

I WON THE PURPLE STAKE YAY

[wintry ice]

but it was funny

[oak cloak]

Sadly had to sell hack

[ancient gyro]

I suppose

[dense wraith]

i wanna know if theres a consistent pattern to when google play games destroys a balatro save file when tranferring to a new phone

[wintry ice]

i took this for temperance value do i keep it

actually there's no rebate next round

is this even a take

[ancient gyro]

do you need temp x2 score atm

[wintry ice]

no

[distant thunder]

nope

[oak cloak]

got the luckiest judgement possible

[distant thunder]

that poly bloodstone tho

looks yummy

[ancient gyro]

do you have anything valuable in deck

[wintry ice]

a gold seal glass

[trail swift]

Had a phenomenal run on zodiac deck, the planet scaling was outta this world

[ancient gyro]

im leaning towards yes but

mmm

[turbid nova]

Now this I can work with

[wintry ice]

removing my faces also sets my deck up for burglar bus

[trail swift]

Had planet tycoon too, truly perfect

[clear mulch]

miao

[ancient gyro]

sure ig

[unreal topaz]

oh same just now

[flat terrace]

I know none of the patterns related to the issue

[trail swift]

Hell yeah

[unborn cliff]

plants found in salad

[trail swift]

True..

[unreal topaz]

i got the psychic and im never finding luchador or bean with planet tycoon but im happy with 50x

[unborn cliff]

what ante did you find constellation

[unreal topaz]

idk ante 4-5 or so? i had certificate give me a couple blue seals and i got mime and crystal ball shortly after

[unborn cliff]

also eternal delagrat

[unreal topaz]

when i saw baron i thought why not full pivot

[ancient gyro]

fr

[unborn cliff]

i guess bro

is that supernova

[unborn cliff]

folk

[ancient gyro]

yeah idk

[unreal topaz]

the splash+flowerpot dream

[ancient gyro]

this is my fourth pot run in like

the last month

[unborn cliff]

snoop dogg playing balatro

[unreal topaz]

nice

[ancient gyro]

idgi

[unreal topaz]

it's nice to get a build that flowerpot actually works in

[unborn cliff]

do not fear eternals

[merry swift]

can ancient joker select the same suit twice in a row?

[cloud sinew]

no

[unreal topaz]

nope

[torpid bridge]

Straights

[merry swift]

thank god

[unreal topaz]

yep, i've also done 4oak on abandoned deck

[ancient gyro]

while finding an impossible outcome

praise for the worst econ generator into the worst joker in the game

[rich mauve]

no way

[narrow scroll]

i really really wanna take it but it's not optimal

[rich mauve]

showman actually does something

[ancient gyro]

poetic w

[unborn cliff]

having crt on is also not optimal but whatever

[cloud sinew]

CRT is optimal because

[unborn cliff]

shut up

crt is ugly

friggen retroslop

[narrow scroll]

is there a mod for more crt

i want maximum crt

[unreal topaz]

and it's harmful

[unborn cliff]

play on a super old tv

[brave goblet]

what is crt

[unborn cliff]

or whatever crt has on

[unreal topaz]

usually

[brave goblet]

huh

[rich mauve]

bro hit anything but burglar 🥀

[narrow scroll]

max crt vs no crt

[rich mauve]

barely won thanks to glass cards

[unborn cliff]

larping c++

[brave goblet]

oooo I see

ngl I've always left it on default and never touched it lmao

[unborn cliff]

how do you have C++ and not know what crt is

[narrow scroll]

no crt is so boring

[brave goblet]

built diff

yeah fr, the retro-ness makes it

[unborn cliff]

better than straining my eyes from all this retroslop

[merry swift]

let's go four fingers and raised fist done

[unborn cliff]

4 fingers thinks hes on the team

[merry swift]

one of the most nothing joker in the game

[cloud sinew]

at least it's not showman

i might do an experiment where i start with an eternal negative showman for a bunch of runs

[nova elk]

What’s best to dup here?

[peak crest]

i’m cooked right (ancient needs spades)

[unreal topaz]

most of the time when i pick up a four fingers it's for faster runner scaling

ngl

[unreal topaz]

depends on high card level, it's reserved parking if you can win in 3 hands while copying it

[nova elk]

U know all of your cards are spades except the diamond 8 right?

But yea idk if you’ll win it

[peak crest]

they’re not, i only have 4 spades in my hand rest are clubs and a diamond

[dire sage]

chat can i make it?

[turbid nova]

The game keeps moving my kings to the left smh

I have to keep track of which is which

[unreal topaz]

you gotta copy shoot the moon for at least one hand

[icy nest]

FUCK

[unreal topaz]

maybe you can get away with parking on the other two

[peak crest]

man… i really liked this run

[dire sage]

rip

[robust lance]

De Nuevo 🗣️ 🔥 🔥 🔥

[icy nest]

De nuevo

🙁

[nova elk]

Flushes r best to play in ante 1-2

[cosmic sun]

one shottius

[ashen relic]

Hey anyone here good at math/creative enough?

[nova elk]

Oh my bad, I thought were spades bc u don’t have high contrast cards enabled lol

[proven vapor]

Should I take the mime?

[nova elk]

Bet thanks

[viscid stone]

Gold Staked Abandoned Deck

[unreal topaz]

you can prob get rid of dna and just make more sixes the hard way, esp if you have purple seals

[dire sage]

all right let's go

[proven vapor]

I don’t have any purp

And I have yet to come across a death

[viscid stone]

It's always sick when you manage to add 5 or more gold stickers

[unreal topaz]

how many sixes in the deck?

[proven vapor]

4

[tawdry rock]

i hate when my swash buckles

[unreal topaz]

maybe photograph can die

or chad

idk if you need them for score or not

with the foil

[proven vapor]

I don’t have steel

[unreal topaz]

im assuming you have gold

that's the best thing about mime there

it's a value generator

[proven vapor]

Just lucky cards

[unreal topaz]

i wouldn't take mime then, i'd be more tempted by stuff that actually gives you money

[viscid stone]

Honestly it takes longer to unlock Gold Stake than anything else

[reef oyster]

isnt the thing from black ante a buff pretty much

[proven vapor]

👍

[unreal topaz]

eternals? not usually

[meager narwhal]

Oh BABY we're in there

[unreal topaz]

eternals aren't too bad but they do still limit your options in general

it's just madness, and to a lesser extent hex/ankh that benefit from them

[nova elk]

Rocket or parking?

Rocket is on 7 atm

[unreal topaz]

context?

[willow frost]

parking

[unreal topaz]

parking can be better in the right context

so can rocket

[nova elk]

I mean, I got 33 coins after shop

[willow frost]

ok we not getting any context lmao

[nova elk]

Idk how to explain

[unreal topaz]

screenshots

screenshots of your deck and jokers are the context

[reef oyster]

the egg increases it own sell value by 3?

[nova elk]

Yea on round end

[keen radish]

Man luck is so much worse on higher stakes

It’s just true

[unreal topaz]

yep, keep it long enough and you get big payouts from temperance

[earnest pelican]

So uh, I just randomly got a bugged seed

it's on Painted and only draws 5/10 cards no matter what

[unreal topaz]

hmmmm, i wonder what would happen if you got less money, less options, and needed more jokers to score points

[keen radish]

I’m angry at the game but your right

[unreal topaz]

wym?

[native cape]

rip (seed if anyone wants - TI1WP7UK)

[unreal topaz]

im curious

[cloud sinew]

what's the seed

[earnest pelican]

VQ9XM9XD

that's the seed

[cloud sinew]

i can verify if it's actually bugged or not really quick

[earnest pelican]

Painted Deck

[nova elk]

Dang

[cloud sinew]

deck shouldnt matter

[safe moat]

Hello

[cloud sinew]

for the effect sure, but not for checking if it is bugged

[safe moat]

Hello people

[earnest pelican]

Gotcha

But yeah lemme know, I know the odds of randomly finding a bugged one are low

this is what it's doing

[safe moat]

Lilo I need it

[robust lance]

Challenge mode

[ancient gyro]

what do we need

[marsh swan]

What a starting joker for plasma deck

[earnest pelican]

Actually it's my entire game, not the seed. I keep only drawing 5 cards hello????

[dire sage]

chat will i make it?

[earnest pelican]

then I restart and it works

[dire sage]

my ice cream is like at 20

i still haven't found any chip jokers

[ancient gyro]

not the first time I've seen this

[dire sage]

ugh i should have taken the straight chip joker

[marsh swan]

Thats a small hand

[cloud sinew]

uhhh i dont think this is a bugged seed, at least not in the usual sense

trying to figure it out

[turbid nova]

X-ray challenge complete

Castle and mime mvps

[cloud sinew]

but it doesnt have a divide by 0 case, which is what happens in pretty much all other bugged seeds im pretty sure

[earnest pelican]

So it turned out I was just drawing 5 cards every deck and seed until I restarted. I have no clue how I managed to bug my game like that. Is this a known thing that can happen?

[mighty swallow]

Am I lagging? How is this not a straight?

[dire sage]

ARE YOU SERIOUS

[shell rock]

do i take vagabond here

[dire sage]

vagabond is only good if u plan on going broke every shop

[vocal rose]

100%

[shell rock]

also, i finally got a run where chicot did something on purple stake and the game didn’t save it 😭

[rich mauve]

it's gonna be a year and still no illusion 🥀

[vocal rose]

get rid of baron and dna

and take vaga

[narrow scroll]

i can just barely read out the score requirement 😭

[shell rock]

but what if i want to run baron though

[vocal rose]

then do that

but it’s not optimal for winning

[twilit geode]

balaro

[shell rock]

bet

[vocal rose]

I have no control over what you do

[unreal topaz]

i didnt find a bug but it is kinda a fun seed

[rich mauve]

balala

[vocal rose]

tell me if you win or not

[marsh swan]

Close one

[vocal rose]

where’s your econ?

you have 2 immediate econ jokers

[marsh swan]

I was really close to dying

So i was all in on spending to survive

[ancient gyro]

I have a similar bug too

[glad sequoia]

Hologram is about to feast

[marsh swan]

3.5x mult right there

[glad sequoia]

Hell yeah

[peak crest]

got all the way to ante 8, got crimson heart and it proceeded to switch between my 2 win condition jokers

this damn game dude

[pale ridge]

Last 4 souls I've gotten 3 chciots and 1 perkeo

[red thistle]

Just do an endless run.

[cloud sinew]

on switch i wanted to unlock and collect illusion, so i went on zodiac deck with the intention of getting it; took every voucher and every voucher tag and tried to unlock it as soon as possible by rolling a lot and taking every card in shop, ended up getting to ante 18 without ever finding it lmao

[red thistle]

Woah blue, also what is this voucher luck lmao.

[reef oyster]

are there any decks that use odd todd and even steven at the same time

[pale ridge]

Hmm

[ancient gyro]

woah munt

[vocal rose]

erratic abandoned?

you can use both at the same time with something like two pair

[pale ridge]

Flush

Straight

[vocal rose]

but not both proc on one card

[pale ridge]

Straight Flush

[pale ridge]

Do I sell for chad

[vocal rose]

I’m assuming they’re asking decks that would be more or so fixed or easier to use those two in conjunction

[pale ridge]

Can u check the image above

[vocal rose]

what about it

[pale ridge]

Should I sell smth for chaf

Chad*

[vocal rose]

swashbuckler

enhance more cards as well if you haven’t

[pale ridge]

ok

[vocal rose]

lucky glass empress hierophant

[pale ridge]

I've been focusing on removing face cards

[vocal rose]

fair with rtb

[pale ridge]

I'm dead here

[vocal rose]

why?

[pale ridge]

I think selling swash lost me the run

[vocal rose]

why was selling it in consideration then

[pale ridge]

U said it

[vocal rose]

I don’t know your scoring

[hollow birch]

if early on into a gold stake yellow deck run with shoot the moon and have been playing pairs, would you rather death your 1 blue seal or death another queen?

[pale ridge]

Are u winning easily

[hollow birch]

sorta at the moment yeah

[pale ridge]

I think blue seal imo

IM NOT SURE

[hollow birch]

yeah i really cant decide - -can make an argument both ways

[vocal rose]

how fixed is the deck

blue seals is effectively -1 hand size if you’re trying to get value from it

and play pairs with stm

[vagrant wagon]

Wow 🫠

[hollow birch]

not at all really, have 49 cards

[cloud sinew]

depends on how many queens i have, how many cards are in my deck, what my current level is, and what my deck power is (how many cards can i draw, which is handsize + 5xdiscards + 5xhands at max, without niche stuff)

[vocal rose]

but it’s blue seal so

[hollow birch]

just in round 7, have 4 queens

[vocal rose]

great value

[hollow birch]

pairs level 5

[vocal rose]

all depends on what takes priority since you aren’t giving much context

assuming 4 hands 2 discards

[hollow birch]

lmao sorry prob not the best at describing

yeah 4 hands 2 discards

[oak cloak]

queen

[vocal rose]

are you able to take screenshots

[oak cloak]

In early game it's easy to die just because you didn't draw enough/any queens

[vocal rose]

I would do the queen

but not just a random queen

an enhanced one

[hollow birch]

yeah no enhanced cards yet

it's an arcana pack

[vocal rose]

I’d do the blue seal for now

[reef oyster]

what rarity is madness

[pale ridge]

Rare

[vocal rose]

since level 5 pairs can give you leniency for survival

[vocal rose]

uncommon

[pale ridge]

I could swear I've seen madness as a rare bro

[vocal rose]

it isn’t rare

[pale ridge]

It was rare bro

[cloud sinew]

source?

[vocal rose]

madness has never been rare

[pale ridge]

Am I having Mandela effect

[cloud sinew]

"am i wrong"

[pale ridge]

I remember seeing madness as a rare

[vocal rose]

proof?

just look it up if you’re so unsure

[pale ridge]

I don't have an image

[vocal rose]

you have not seen it as rare

if you’re playing base game non modded balatro madness is uncommon and has not been rare

[pale ridge]

Only mods I use rn are talisman and steammodded

Maybe I saw it in ortalab or cryptid

[oak cloak]

it'll be difficult to survive just off pairs

[vocal rose]

not gonna converse about what you “potentially” saw

[vocal rose]

I don’t know much else

[ancient gyro]

this is enough chips for me

[azure ginkgo]

Had a few good runs today, just need Dagger (somehow), Pareidolia, and Turtle Bean for C++ 👀

[weary monolith]

played on and off while waiting for 1.1, thanks god I'll never have to play neb*la deck ever again

[azure ginkgo]

what's wrong with nebula D:

[cloud sinew]

it's very boring and it sucks.

[weary monolith]

I feel like it's ass and the -1 consumables suck fucking dick man

[cloud sinew]

-1 consumable slot is annoying and quite a big downside, for not a big upside.

[weary monolith]

priestess and emperor my beloved

[south palm]

Hi

[azure ginkgo]

it makjes straight runs free af tho

[manic zealot]

lowkey a funny shop

[cloud sinew]

you need to have straight as your most played

[terse vale]

ehh

[manic zealot]

marble is nat negative

[azure ginkgo]

ez

[cloud sinew]

which isnt likely with 2 discards

[azure ginkgo]

just restart a few times until you can beat round 1 with a straight

what i do at least

[terse vale]

bro

[ancient gyro]

or some boss blinds

[cloud sinew]

so "lose a few times until you can beat round 1 with a straight"

[ancient gyro]

wow some strong deck that is

[azure ginkgo]

i mean in one hand xd

[ancient gyro]

you're not guaranteed to have celestials in shop

also money

also my blue seal value 🥀

[weary monolith]

I've tried that but sometimes I missed one single card on ante 7/8 and just wanted to smash my monitor in 🥀

[ancient gyro]

also pivot 🥀

[azure ginkgo]

idk was one of my easier decks to beat gold on

did a few sticker runs with it too

[robust lance]

Also my dogs got out of the yard 🥀

[ancient gyro]

you should try doing nebula++ (don't)

[cloud sinew]

even black deck is more fun than nebula atp

[faint linden]

Doing a run where I try to get as many vouchers as possible

Chose yellow

[cloud sinew]

nebula really should just not have the downside, it would feel so much less miserable

[ancient gyro]

black deck has more interesting highs

why would thunk disagree

[glad viper]

googoo

[ancient gyro]

some of my personal records were broken in black

for what it's worth

[serene forge]

gogo gaga

[peak plinth]

63 hands, crazy work

[serene forge]

I love Square Joker

[cloud sinew]

i dont know how you managed to do this lol, everything i've tested with results in it not being a bugged seed

are you running vanilla balatro

[cloud sinew]

didnt even see this lol

how did you do this to your whole game

[wintry valley]

damn wait

if that one spectral card sets your money to 0 but creates a rare joker

if you pair that with credit card

[cloud sinew]

you make money from it, yes

[wintry valley]

you get money for free

[cloud sinew]

same with Ox

[wintry valley]

holy shit 💀

[cloud sinew]

Ox and Wraith have been the only way i've gotten out of debt sometimes

[serene forge]

rare scenario but yes that is how it works

[torpid bridge]

I wish wraith exists irl

It insta erases debt

[serene forge]

I think ive used it once to recover from tooth

[torpid bridge]

:'k

[serene forge]

because I had burger

[wintry valley]

sadly doesn't apply to real life

[torpid bridge]

Ox actually does it irl

Ox helps you do the farming

So erase debts

🥲

[serene forge]

"yo im in a really bad financial situation i need to go to a farm"

[peak plinth]

The ox has killed some of my runs
