[wintry ice]

very

[lament condor]

you're the first person to make it past ante 3 btw

[wintry ice]

did andy play this seed

[robust lance]

polychrome lucky ace of spades in pack

[wintry ice]

unfortunately not

[lament condor]

i don't remember

[robust lance]

damn it

imagine though

[unreal topaz]

remind me to try this later

[wintry ice]

speaking of poly ace of spades

i got it in the run before this

(it died because i didn't read the boss blind)

[wispy hound]

no naneinf but new high score ❤️‍🩹 this run was crazy tho, see the 2nd and 3rd screenshots

[wispy hound]

no retcon or os++ and a runin with the ox (at ~1200$) kinda cooked this run but it was fun while it lasted

[wintry ice]

whiffed a flush

[ancient gyro]

flushed out

[robust lance]

flushed away

[wintry ice]

the uranus in the shop could have saved me

[lament condor]

lilo tried it and sent it to doc so i'm waiting for the video on it if he makes one

[wintry ice]

i can see doc being able to do this

also i so wished i was in yellow deck rn

[robust lance]

banana carry

[wintry ice]

the game is trying to tempt me

is supernova or grabber more important

i'm guessing the former on this deck

well i could do with this instead

[spice jacinth]

The credit card in the pack..

[wintry ice]

oh true that could have been a route

[noble depot]

i just made some BULLSHIT!!!

while i wait for rufus to finish up my media creation tool bcs my stupid cloned drive won't boot

[unreal topaz]

rn i would take supernova and probably take madness and probably die

just for funsies

[spice jacinth]

That some Bull shit alright

Ba dum tss

[wintry ice]

i honestly would have done the same if was still doing my first c++

[unreal topaz]

red card is def better, you can also do both red card and supernova

[wintry ice]

this is also nice

[lament condor]

im on cloud nine

[noble depot]

yuh

[wintry ice]

bruh

[noble depot]

WHY IS THE MULT TRIGGERING???

i need the money from lucky cards

not mult

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[lament condor]

you know you're too strong when your DNA hand one shots

[wintry ice]

do people take ante 1 space joker

[noble depot]

oh, rufus is done

[lament condor]

number 1685

[wintry ice]

[noble depot]

[wintry ice]

[lament condor]

NO

YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME

ITS NOT SEEDED

WHAT DO YOU MEAN

IT DIDN'T COUNT

WHAT THE FUCK

[wintry ice]

the blank seed moment

[noble depot]

[noble depot]

[lament condor]

epstien reference

[spice jacinth]

The Jimbo files

[unreal topaz]

best space joker of all time

[lament condor]

|| Redacted redacted Redacted redacted Redacted redacted Redacted redacted Redacted redacted Redacted redacted || John J Jimbo || Redacted redacted Redacted redacted Redacted redacted Redacted redacted Redacted redacted Redacted redacted ||

[wintry ice]

[unreal topaz]

[serene forge]

[hybrid tendon]

it'S nice yeah

[wintry ice]

would taking crystal ball be too greedy

[hybrid tendon]

yeahh

you need interest for campfire and red card

[wintry ice]

i think i'll sell halu for hiker anyways

idt i'd spend a quarter of a planet for a random tarot

[lament condor]

riff raff is trying to communicate with me

[unreal topaz]

it would be unneccesary but fun

[serene forge]

🐘

[wintry ice]

"lemme set things somewhat straight"

[lament condor]

whatchu watching

[cosmic sun]

dn

[wintry ice]

oh wait this could be a bi joke

a straight pivot sounds fun...

[ancient gyro]

i dont get it

[wintry ice]

shortcut space joker

[rocky tiger]

holy peak bro

[wintry ice]

with 2 blue seals

though i probably wouldn't be able to do it without already having saturns

[somber whale]

Whats best to copy here

[ancient gyro]

this message

[wintry ice]

all on baron

switch to mime after the last hand

[ancient gyro]

what she said

[somber whale]

Wdym after the last hand

[sacred pike]

HAPPENING

[wintry ice]

for gold cards

[somber whale]

Oh cause I one shot the blinds

[wintry ice]

well anyways is 3$ better than keeping hiker

[somber whale]

And I have like 1 gold card in my deck

The rest are polychrome steel kings

[wintry ice]

it's better to have about half steel half gold for money generation

[somber whale]

Ok

I’ll convert some ty

But for now just all on baron?

[wintry ice]

yea

[somber whale]

Ty

[noble depot]

WOAH

[rocky tiger]

do i drop summit for dna and try to make 5oak? if i dont find 50ak i think i just lose on the spot

[wintry ice]

i accidentally rolled past parking

fuck

[brittle umbra]

First time getting a legendary joker

[somber whale]

@wintry ice

[wintry ice]

yea?

[somber whale]

Is it worth to get rid of mime for showman to hunt another blueprint/brainstorm?

[wintry ice]

it probably would have been if you had gold cards

but i'd rather look for dna or burglar depending on how close ante 24 is to your current scoring

neat

[somber whale]

Why Whats special about ante 24

[wintry ice]

no serpent

[somber whale]

Ion understand

So no show?

[vocal rose]

ante 8-16-24-32 are showdown boss blinds

where only 5 specific boss blinds can show up

[somber whale]

Oh

[wintry ice]

7s are my most common rank

do i do it

[vocal rose]

meaning the serpent cannot show up which is used for very high scoring

[somber whale]

I didn’t know that

I don’t need serpent tho

[somber whale]

Yes

[median nova]

The seed ive been doing seems really good, how would i go about doing naneinf/ high scoring

[somber whale]

Do you have observatory?

[median nova]

Yup

[somber whale]

Get lotsa blues and brains

[fringe nebula]

naneinf on nebula deck is something alright

[median nova]

Don't ask me bro i was struggling to orange stake it

[median nova]

Should i look for a showman?

[somber whale]

Wait so do I take showman over a mime yea or nea

[somber whale]

Ya

So that they show up

[fringe nebula]

ye

[somber whale]

And invis jokers

[median nova]

Holy were playing the same thing

[wintry ice]

i still think getting dna or burglar would be better

[somber whale]

Lmao

[median nova]

I would i guess

[somber whale]

Why tho

[wintry ice]

they're necessary for getting to the magic number

and extra joker slots are rare

[somber whale]

Why is burglar important

[fringe nebula]

serpent

[somber whale]

O

[wintry ice]

it allows you to hold a bunch of cards with serpent

[somber whale]

But serpent already came

Can it come back?

[fringe nebula]

yes

you can reroll for it

[wintry ice]

after all normal bosses are rolled yeah

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[somber whale]

I don’t have Evo directors cut

[wintry ice]

this is fun

specially with this

[serene forge]

naneinf is not happening

[somber whale]

Lmao

[somber whale]

But for now…

I take show and look for dna/burger

🍔

[fringe nebula]

look for burger at ante 25 or 26

find dna instead

[somber whale]

So keep mime for now

[wintry ice]

and mime is at 1 round

easiest win ever

[somber whale]

Your constellation being at the front of your jokers is disturbing me

[fringe nebula]

it's farming shenanigans

[wintry ice]

it's there for stalling

[somber whale]

Tomfoolery

[fringe nebula]

you can intentionally underscore to dig for gold cards or blue seal

[somber whale]

Smart

[fringe nebula]

instead of winning in one hand

[somber whale]

But do I leave the show man for now just tell me pls ;-; _/_

[fringe nebula]

leave showman

and look for dna

[somber whale]

K ty

No more hunt for brain storm or blue or invis

?

[wintry ice]

it's unlikely you'll get more space for them

[somber whale]

FAH

[still pike]

Is green joker any good?

[somber whale]

Is it worth to get rid of mime and my useless negatives for invis?

[fringe nebula]

really good

[vocal rose]

will you live

[somber whale]

Yes but I don’t want to just live

[still pike]

Ignore me hovering over parking

[somber whale]

I want to thrive

[wintry ice]

honestly seems likely that he will

[somber whale]

✍️ 🔥

[fringe nebula]

no, you need to pick green joker at earlygame

[somber whale]

Get rid of riff raff

[fringe nebula]

picking it at this stage of the game isn't the play

[wintry ice]

please copy campfire it would be so funny

YES

[cyan briar]

yes

[somber whale]

I want to get rid of my mime

[fringe nebula]

please copy space joker

ah

ok

[hazy hound]

Proud to say mr bones got me my last win for c+

[wintry ice]

this run is so comical

[somber whale]

The goat

[hazy hound]

im now 15/15 for c+, 101/150 for c++

[hazy hound]

Truly

[lament condor]

"lets not greed here"

translating...

"Im a pussy bitch"

[fringe nebula]

translating....

"go big or die trying"

[wintry ice]

proceeds to die in ante 2

[ancient gyro]

i hate hippos

[somber whale]

Another win for the me

[somber whale]

But theyre so cute

[ancient gyro]

they're terror wrists in mewgenics

[somber whale]

@wintry ice I got a perky for my invis

[ancient gyro]

all my cars fucking died

[wintry ice]

neat

[somber whale]

Blud what are you taking abt

[wintry ice]

every wild animal the media portrays as cute is an actual terror

[fringe nebula]

mewgenics is a game

[somber whale]

Mb

[ancient gyro]

he's not on board with the trend 🥀

[cyan briar]

mewgenics

[wintry ice]

what's the game with the weird name about

[strange abyss]

me when an oil crisis happens

[lament condor]

I hate when a game i played 3 years ago becomes popular again because then i just see the worst larpers of all time

[ancient gyro]

dnd roguelike with cars

different classes and what not

[cyan briar]

just a roguelite game

[still pike]

W because I have polycrome astronomer

[strange abyss]

It's about the pokemon mew and making different pokemon out of a single mew
||Idk what the game is actually about aside from it involving cats||

[wintry ice]

lame ass game

[fringe nebula]

i mean

literally 96% of your score comes from jokers and planet levels

so

[ancient gyro]

oh nyo

[still pike]

Sell the boss

[wintry ice]

the campfire could have been higher if i didn't ankh

i also just

forgot to buy planets for const

[ancient gyro]

🥀

[wintry ice]

the man who sold the world

[cyan briar]

sell the deck

[wintry ice]

i was making glass cards for a really high final score

buffoon pack had chad and spectral pack had wraith

tempted to use aj with straights because of chad

what.

[strange abyss]

Looked inside

[wintry ice]

this shit is a roffle seed

[cyan briar]

photochad and ancient

[vocal rose]

golden joker

[hard jewel]

how does one pass the green stake

i have tried every single deck

[still pike]

Holy card levels

[cyan briar]

gamble

[hard jewel]

ive gamebled at least 60 ghost decks

i cant do this anymore

id have a god hand and then i die to the stupidest thing ever

this green stake is infuriating

[cyan briar]

gamble issue

🔥

[lament condor]

i finally rewired my brain for green deck

[wintry ice]

try to keep your money above 25$ whenever possible

[lament condor]

don't fuck with me

PLEASE

[vocal rose]

why arent you at interest cap?

unoptimal

[lament condor]

I saved my money 3 times that run by accident

[fringe crest]

hi zoahl

[exotic pike]

glub glub glub

[rough prairie]

Green deck guys, no interest

[fringe crest]

how many attemps did it take you guys to guess the balatrodle

[lament condor]

"i main flushes in balatro"
translating...
"larp larp larp larp larp larp larp larp larp larp"

[fringe crest]

flushes are good but not good to use every run

i mean

you can but its not that reliable

compared to pairs

like obv

but id rather play straights than flushes

[cyan briar]

FUCK

[lament condor]

im gonna go to the conference finals of our school's basketball team and yell "thats my man!" whenever a person from the other team does a free throw

[vocal rose]

holo rocket

thats an amazing start

[cyan briar]

yea

that photochad was only the wind

[hazy hound]

Theres no way that 8 ball has the same odds as wheel 😭

[cyan briar]

and thinking that wheel was 1/5 before

[wintry ice]

i'd still say that keeping money above 20$ is a good idea for hermits

[plush lance]

Nice lil run

[fringe crest]

hi zoahl

you didnt say hi back the first time

do you hate me now

[plush lance]

Horser

[fringe crest]

yup thats getting saved

[plush lance]

😂

[exotic pike]

🫡

[plush lance]

Damn 😔

[cyan briar]

i made x260 more score than that on ante 4 😂

[faint linden]

Get Hooked on (we hate to see it)

[still pike]

Im lucky rn

[vocal rose]

hi

[sullen plover]

What would I sell here for a brainstorm? Lucky cats at x18 and my decks at a point I can always play stleast 1 full hand of lucky gold seal kings

[vocal rose]

cat

cat goes

[plush lance]

Gold stake fin magic 🪄

[sullen plover]

Daym fr?

[vocal rose]

yes

[sullen plover]

Thought it's mult was higher then what bloodstone could achieve rn

[plush lance]

Lucky cat on 14.75x

[noble depot]

zodiac deck my beloved

[delicate valve]

End of a good run, plasma deck

[uneven laurel]

So if madness destroys gros Michel, can I still get Cavendish?

[faint linden]

No. It has to die naturally

[exotic pike]

if it werent for the rich get richer, this would be my actual score

so uh yeah, more than 4x

[cyan briar]

then i made x180 more score than that on ante 4 🔥

[rapid glade]

is there a joker that does anything if i have enough gold cards? had a run with pareidolia and midas mask that made me wonder

[calm turtle]

What should I sell?

[cyan briar]

the one that gives less xmult

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodwtone

[serene forge]

photo

[serene forge]

vampire

golden ticket

[stone hornet]

Is this naneinf possible? I fucked up early on by accidentally hitting the DNA with an ecto. I do have a nat neg juggler so +1 hand size thru that. Should I go for a 2nd ecto?

[lament condor]

doc didn't play with my seed im very sad

doc should really try my seed it'd make for a pretty hot video

[sullen plover]

Did that n immediately lost xd

[robust lance]

you should try freeing yourself from the shackles that hold you back

[lament condor]

yeah i think i should try to make my seed more appealing to try

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[fringe nebula]

second ecto will reduce your handsize to 6 instead so it's unlikely

[unreal topaz]

second ecto is the only way to save it yea

4 copy jokers along with baron mime and burglar is mandatory

[fringe nebula]

assuming you will even find ecto

[unreal topaz]

yeah

thag too

[uneven laurel]

I love madness on higher stakes

[cyan briar]

finally i will beat my first green skate run

[fringe nebula]

get planted

[unreal topaz]

i mean with brainstorm+rebate they should be able to find something to bail em out

[eternal kestrel]

Oops! All Polychrome! (And Chicot & Cavendish)

[uneven laurel]

Get a glass ace asap or your gonna jinx the run lol

[eternal kestrel]

Have brainstorm on Chad

[fringe nebula]

brainstorm is on chad when you have a glass face

[sand quiver]

meoooow

c++ time

[wintry ice]

would it be worth it to mess with the suit balance

or is wheel better

[lucid glacier]

wheel is better

[cyan briar]

i got ancient so plant now doesnt affect me at all

[fringe nebula]

good, get mouth'd

[wintry ice]

doubt i have the space sadly

do i sell egg for halu

i guess i could check arcana first

this is pretty good considering water is coming up

[lucid glacier]

is shoot the moon good for beating ante 8???

[sand quiver]

no not really

[fringe nebula]

yes

[wintry ice]

it's decent

[fringe nebula]

if you have steel

[uneven laurel]

Feel like I'm the most vanilla boring balatro player lol

[sand quiver]

it requires too much deckfixing for very low payoff

[wintry ice]

it can get the job done but it's harder to use than most other +mult options

the reward is fine

[wintry ice]

and it's consistent enough at 6 queens but stuff like bus is on a league of their own

[uneven laurel]

Yep near the same lol

[sand quiver]

what the hell... perkeo in top 10

[fringe nebula]

worst part of shoot the moon is probably the fact that you have to manually move your steel ace/king to the right

[lucid glacier]

im pretty sure it counts seeded runs

[hard mantle]

joker idea: burning memory
x? mult
all cards graphics are shuffled

[sand quiver]

ahh mb

[fringe nebula]

probably brainstorm mod

?

[sand quiver]

what is a brainstorm mod

[lucid glacier]

no looking up seeds on youtube

[sand quiver]

who up caning they shit

[uneven laurel]

It's a mod that lets you filter your seed so you run in x and y things at the start

[cyan briar]

that makes it worse btw

[fringe nebula]

a seedfinder

it's not exactly "seeded" because you will get an unexplored seed but you are guaranteed to have a certain kind of start

[sand quiver]

oh huh i see

[eternal kestrel]

No it doesn’t what?

[sand quiver]

i've never played modded ever so thank you for the clarification ^^

[hard mantle]

SHOOT THE GOAAAAAAT

[mystic pollen]

Good

[potent hearth]

brainstorm on chad only makes it 32x but on photograph its 64x

[cyan briar]

2^5=32 (With brainstorming chad)
2^(3x2)=64 (With brainstorming photo)

[eternal kestrel]

Oh ok

[uneven laurel]

3(2x2x) - on photograph
5(2x) on chad
Better on photograph surely

[hard mantle]

do i take faceless joker here, despite it being rental?

[fringe nebula]

yes

absolutely

no brainer

[hard mantle]

figured, ty

[fringe nebula]

i mean

[lucid glacier]

take it it profits if you use discards

[tranquil steppe]

Some people just don’t understand the game

[uneven laurel]

As long as you are able to discard and consistency discard more than 3 cards in a single round... It's free profit

[fringe nebula]

faceless is guaranteed to give $15 per round ($12 because rental)

[potent hearth]

this setup is the best ive ever got

[serene forge]

LMAO

[tranquil steppe]

Take it, discard, and sell before the round ends if you don’t want it

[tranquil steppe]

That’s just bait

[tranquil steppe]

Not on gold

[fringe nebula]

look harder at the pic

they have wasteful

[hard mantle]

FUCK

oh wait wrong screenshot

LOL

FUCK

[fringe nebula]

yeah

[tranquil steppe]

Got it

[uneven laurel]

Just use it whilst you can, youll make like 28$ per round

[fringe nebula]

it's still alot of econ if you copy faceless

you could also take the square route but hahaa

[gray tartan]

nooo my yuri

[uneven laurel]

Can someone explain how to effectively use square joker. I don't get it

Chip gain feels too slow

[tranquil steppe]

Get it early on. Have lots of hands. Profit

[gray tartan]

square joker is lame af ngl

[uneven laurel]

I then die cause Im playing two pair lol

[potent hearth]

getting better and better

[tranquil steppe]

It is kinda just middle of the road for chip jokers tbh

[fringe nebula]

play pairs or high card

you can combine square with bus/redcard/grimbo/any scaling +mult

[tranquil steppe]

Two pair is great with square and trousers

[uneven laurel]

One bp should be on chad no?

[potent hearth]

i didnt set it yet

i just buy it

[uneven laurel]

Ah lol

[tranquil steppe]

Square is practically worthless if you pick him up late game

[hard mantle]

this could be the run killer, wish us luck

[serene forge]

toxic yuri

[hard mantle]

HOLY

[gray tartan]

doomed yuri

[hard mantle]

yeah chat i think its over

pain

[cyan briar]

at your ante i made x10,000 more points 🔥

[hard mantle]

i need to learn how to find more consistent cards

[hard mantle]

okay

[unreal topaz]

square joker enables you to throw garbage and still score, which is very useful

pairs are way better with square

usually 2 pair's use case is if you're hurting for chips

[unreal topaz]

just like most commons

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[serene forge]

pair

the answer to almost any joker is just pair

[unreal topaz]

also sometimes you sell an early square later on if you get a lot of blue seal value, but you would sell any common chip joker in that situation

square just happens to be one of the better chip jokers bc 16 chips per round is actually a good amount

its a mercury card worth of chips

[serene forge]

square is easy and consistent chip scaling which is always good

[unreal topaz]

hand agnostic as well

good insurance vs some bosses

[serene forge]

I love Square Joker

[stone hornet]

I did manage to find a second ecto but it was too late, burned through all my savings trying to find a showman but never got one. Couldn’t even reroll for the serpent at the end. Least I got my new high score

[potent hearth]

pareidolia my beloved

[stone hornet]

Lesson learned: don’t take an ecto on a naneinf run if there’s even a minuscule chance of it hitting something non-permanent 🤦‍♀️

[serene forge]

square joker be bad challenge (impossible)

[serene forge]

sell the jokers you don't want to ecto

[unreal topaz]

ecto chances are never miniscule either, i wouldn't call a 1 in 6 miniscule at all

[serene forge]

if you have something good to ecto you should probably just take it

[sacred pike]

won a plasma deck round with triple square jokers lol

[serene forge]

you don't want to eat shit because ecto chooses not to show up again

[cyan briar]

money

[unreal topaz]

yea usually you can just replace them

[oak elbow]

I’ve officially beaten all the main colored decks

[lucid glacier]

this run is crazy

[errant lake]

No one in shock (MG1DQ9UF note to myself)

[cloud sinew]

negative trib looks sick as fuck

[lucid glacier]

bro i love when that happens

[fiery jay]

since when we got color roles here

[stone hornet]

God naneinf runs take so damn long, the sun was bright and shining when I started and now it’s 3 hours later at nighttime

[fringe nebula]

x16 game speed and skipped animation

[crude compass]

WEE gaming

[lucid glacier]

i get a little money at the end of rounds

[solemn saffron]

Should I pivot?

[lavish gazelle]

Yeah

[fringe crest]

my body hurts a lot right now i should probably try to find out why or i could play the balala

[heavy heron]

or you could play balala

[fringe crest]

or maybe even balala

[cerulean zenith]

What does one even do in this situation

[mystic pollen]

Hmmmmm, do i need to use ankh? If yes, who i need to sell?

[sleek agate]

ankh will kill your run

immolate is good though

[primal dragon]

The plant synergy

[terse vale]

flush I guess

[gray tartan]

bloodstone don't u dare bro

please bloodstone i need this my idol is kinda homeless

[cerulean zenith]

Flushing literally poo whats new

[mystic pollen]

Minus 5 cards

Nah

[sleek agate]

it’s deckfixing

it’s the best one

[sleek agate]

like 90% of the time it’s the best spectral

not to mention the $20

[mystic pollen]

Hmmmm

[primal dragon]

Who should i sell

[torpid bridge]

Parei or scary

Parei ig

[cosmic sun]

what was paredoila even doing there tbh

[mystic pollen]

WHAIT?

[sleek agate]

yeah it’s the best spectral

[mystic pollen]

This isnt a minus xmult

[sleek agate]

removing 5 cards is very strong

[mystic pollen]

Damn

[cosmic sun]

I don't see a single good card in that hand, that immolate is free as hell

[sleek agate]

you’re also at $12

[mystic pollen]

I think if i take this spec card, he will reduce my holograph joker

[cosmic sun]

nah, holo doesn't work like that

[mystic pollen]

I have black egg

[sleek agate]

it wont

[mystic pollen]

Taro card will reduce his xmult?

[eternal kestrel]

No

[dusty void]

Guys how many cryptids do I need for naninf

[eternal kestrel]

It’s only adding cards that do something to hologram‘s xMULT

[eternal kestrel]

Like 4 or 5 idk

[dusty void]

If I have two copy jokers+ baron mime

Oh 55

Okay

Fuck

[glad bronze]

Guess I'm selling constellation

[oak elbow]

Real question is what have YOU been doing

[glad bronze]

Right, on the leaf

[cosmic sun]

Holo only checks for cards added

[pallid ferry]

odd todd will save me

[glad bronze]

How the hell do you have 6 hand size
did you take 2 ectoplasms, sell 1, and take a painted voucher???

[cursive lion]

reminds me when they made cod black ops a ds game

[pallid ferry]

lol

[glad bronze]

ohhh the ouija card

[pallid ferry]

i spent 30 minutes trying to successfully figure out how to stream gameplay onto 3ds as one does ..

[cosmic sun]

🗿

[cerulean zenith]

I dont remember

One was ectoplasm one was turning all in hand to single rank but it was before this part

[cursive lion]

i think its kinda possible on the new 3ds but in general its just not that good

theres a reason why most people used citra for recording since its either that or recording yourself playing on the 3ds

[pallid ferry]

i SWEAR the gameplay is smooth and not delayed at all, the quality is just low because 3ds lol

not sure how often i’ll use this but cooliosis

[cursive lion]

progress

[pallid ferry]

nice!!

[cursive lion]

oh yeah let me grab my handhelds

[primal dragon]

Sneaky queen

[cursive lion]

looks inside

[cursive lion]

admiteddly i only have a psp for umd/physical psp games and for the switch it was only because of new horizons 😭

[fickle mesa]

did you know theres a psvita port of balatro

im assuming 3/4 of these are hacked btw because if not.... hack themmmm

[cerulean zenith]

PUHLEEEEEEAAASSEEEE BE ENOUGH

ITS NOT ENOUGHHHH

[cursive lion]

all of them except the switch is hacked, but my vita is dead since i need to get a new charger

its a newer model so i cannot use the paper clip method

[fickle mesa]

okay if you're using droll joker in ante 10 you are deadzo anyways how did it take that long

[cursive lion]

its not the end of the world since i only got it for new horizons lol and honestly not a whole lot of switch homebrew i am interested in

[burnt night]

Did you guys know that Roblox has a version of bolatro?

[fickle mesa]

i kinda wanna turn my switch intk a budget steam deck

[cursive lion]

☹️

[fickle mesa]

i dont need to since i have an actual steam deck

but it seems fun

[burnt night]

Now read this and think dark thoughts

[cerulean zenith]

Defeated by small blind what does this mean for me and my ego

[burnt night]

🤣🤣🤣

I hate myself after reading this

[cursive lion]

☹️

[cursive lion]

checks out (all jokes as long you are having fun thats all it matters)

[burnt night]

Honestly I feel the same way so
He's not alone 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

[cursive lion]

for me i only need a game boy advance and steam deck to complete my handheld collection but honestly it can wait

[cerulean zenith]

That was my first win of countless runs today im sobbing

[cursive lion]

you can only improve <3

[cerulean zenith]

Im still very new to balatro only won two runs

[fickle mesa]

you already have a game boy advance

its the one in the middle

[cursive lion]

its a 3ds i like to collect physical games too

[fickle mesa]

this joke only makes sense if you know how gba virtual console works

[cerulean zenith]

I love balatro

[cursive lion]

if i was only for digital or piracy i probably won't have uh let me check

eleven game consoles thirdteen if you consider a pc and phone a game console which i don't

[cerulean zenith]

Leave me and my droll joker alone

[fickle mesa]

damn no pc or phone

[cursive lion]

?

i literally chatting on my puter

[fickle mesa]

"eleven game consoles eleven if you consider a pc and phone a game console"

[cursive lion]

oops

thirdteen my bad

[cerulean zenith]

I have 4

[cursive lion]

i got a ps2 slim, ps3 slim, ps4 og, psp, psvita, xbox, xbox 360 s, dreamcast, nintendo first-gen wii, nintendo switch, nintendo new 3ds xl

this is the kind of greed they talk in the bibles

and yes i can show yall

[cerulean zenith]

A really busted up switch, a series s, an xbox one, and a ps5

[fickle mesa]

you dont have the best game system the wii u though

[cerulean zenith]

No pc my phone is for crk

It cant run real games

[fickle mesa]

i have a few consoles but many of them are at my ex parents house and we arent exactly on good terms

[cursive lion]

honestly, i don't really need a wii u since there isn't a whole lot of exclusives to come back to on the wii u, and nintendo made bank on just rereleasing the ones that did matter onto the switch

[cerulean zenith]

I grew up with a wii that my uncle modded

I miss it

I stuffed coins in its disc drive and i dont know where it is or if it works

[fickle mesa]

you are correct however you cant get miiverse on the switch

[cerulean zenith]

Lost again to big blind ante 2

[cursive lion]

woops

i forgot the ps2

its that well hidden

[cursive lion]

do you want like some advice?

[cerulean zenith]

Not really, i like learning myself

[cursive lion]

fair enough but always feel free to ask

[cerulean zenith]

Advice is a great way to learn, but damn is experience more fun

[cursive lion]

you are right

[cerulean zenith]

Negative mister bones everything is falling into place

[cursive lion]

i feel like oppenheimer with everything is in the right place from radiohead radiating from my body when i got a good build cooking

[serene forge]

most intelligent bloodstone user

[cerulean zenith]

Using droll joker again because i never learn

[cursive lion]

bait or legit studipity: call it

[serene forge]

its a bloodstone user the answer is obvious

[cerulean zenith]

Sounds like something i would do so stupidity

[mighty flume]

ok dusk. i will complete you one way or another... even if that buts me in cripling debt

[lament condor]

?ban @everyone

🥶

[strange delta]

Beat black deck gold stakes.

It's over.

[subtle drum]

bro tried

i respect the effort

[misty tartan]

Better to try and fail than to not try at all

[lament condor]

goon squad is assembling again

[cerulean zenith]

What should i sell but you cant say "dear god all of it these jokers are awful"

[terse vale]

um

hm

well

wrathful for lusty

[lament condor]

all of the above

[terse vale]

ante 8 round 13

you’re going for the achievement right

[cerulean zenith]

No im just playing

Except all i play is flushes because im weird like that

[terse vale]

you must skip less

[cerulean zenith]

Oh skip blinds? Sure i do that a bit

[terse vale]

its ante 8 round 13 there is no reason to skip that much

[cerulean zenith]

Not that much just sometimes

I say as i skip a blind

[serene forge]

go back in time to before you took a holographic tag

[terse vale]

you should atleast be at round 20 or 19

[serene forge]

you should almost never be skipping more than once or twice in a game

[cerulean zenith]

Watch me lose to crimson heart

[serene forge]

unless you're on orange stake and need to preserve a perishable or something

[vale mist]

PLEASE NO WHAMMIES

[cerulean zenith]

Nvm I'm goated

[terse vale]

I believe you will get better

[vale mist]

I'm making canio's face rn

[serene forge]

why'd you sell blueprint????

[mighty flume]

this is the moment i realize even if i desired for i couldn't gold ANYTHING...

[serene forge]

why are you grinding stickers on plasma

[vale mist]

I figured that with the econ I'd be getting more copiers anyway

[mighty flume]

because im just missing dusk, loyalty and bean

[serene forge]

why are you ever grinding stickers on plasma

it sucks

[serene forge]

you only need four copiers

[cerulean zenith]

I loooove card sharp but i cant buy it because im out of space but its soooo good

[mighty flume]

somehow for me is easier to grind and build around chips on plasma than trying to build for Mult on other decks like ghost one

[vale mist]

in retrospect I may have goofed

[serene forge]

how consistently do you win with just chips

im willing to bet not very consistently

[terse vale]

? really

[mighty flume]

not a lot of times. but i do reach quite far.

[serene forge]

you would have more success by playing a better deck

[cerulean zenith]

Ive had this gros michel forna while now its scaring me

[mighty flume]

i know, i know, ghost deck because of the spectral cards in store and the Hex on start

[cerulean zenith]

Breaking news awful balatro player calls for mass babana extinction

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[mystic pollen]

Im dead

[terse vale]

how so?

[cerulean zenith]

Mr bones saved me everyone say thank you Mr bones

[terse vale]

mmmmmhhhh

[lament condor]

"YESSS I FINALLY WON BLACK DECK GOLD STAKE"
the blank seed of doom and dispair:

[terse vale]

you’re fine?

[mystic pollen]

It was the best jokers what i see in the shop

[terse vale]

yeah those are great jokers

[mystic pollen]

I dont want red card joker

[lament condor]

why not copy burglar?

[mystic pollen]

I dont have copy

I dont get

[terse vale]

red card is the best scaling +mult

[terse vale]

lad

[lament condor]

worst:

[terse vale]

blueprint

[lament condor]

dawg

😭

[cerulean zenith]

I lost again

[terse vale]

how

[cerulean zenith]

X2

[mystic pollen]

I will send seed in the chat

[lament condor]

braindead + not fun

[terse vale]

so you’re saying red card is still the best scaling +mult

[lament condor]

i would rather die then take a red card

also dagger clears in all aspects

[terse vale]

literally no

[fickle mesa]

dagger is a more expensive less consistent red card

and its still good which tells you just how powerful red card is

[terse vale]

yuuup

[fickle mesa]

you arent normally spending money on buying jokers

[lament condor]

red card is high cortisol

[mystic pollen]

Yea

[terse vale]

?

[fickle mesa]

you are normally spending money on packs

[mystic pollen]

Red card joker is bad

[terse vale]

no

how

[lament condor]

by this logic flashcard is top 3

[mystic pollen]

Spectral cards, taro cards

[terse vale]

you guys haven’t been giving reasons other than “I dont like it”

[drowsy rain]

low cortisol mult scaling: Fortune Teller

[terse vale]

most packs aren’t worth +3 mult

[mystic pollen]

Turn cards in hearts

[mystic pollen]

Or steel cards

[fickle mesa]

the thing is you dont normally reroll until a little later than when you start opening packs

[terse vale]

also flashcard requires more rerolling than normal but honestly flashcard aint bad

[fickle mesa]

you cant really reroll off interest hands and reward money alone

you can open packs though

[mystic pollen]

Death taro card is good

[terse vale]

not to be rude but who cares i’d rather +3 mult

[lament condor]

@mystic pollen how many gold stake wins do you have

[mystic pollen]

Taro, spectral, standard is good

[fickle mesa]

even once ur econ is online youll still maybe get 2 rerolls per round so only slightly better than red card at a later point in the game

[mystic pollen]

0

[mystic pollen]

Newbie

[terse vale]

in most cases +3 mult is better

[mystic pollen]

Nah

[terse vale]

yeah?

[mystic pollen]

Yeah

[terse vale]

ok cool

[fickle mesa]

who the fuck is running flushes on a red card build, lol

anyways, it seems you are overvalueing pack contents

[mystic pollen]

What?

[terse vale]

no you dont get it i’d rather have star then +3 mult

ITS SO GOOOD I LOVE DIAMONDS

[drowsy rain]

Sometimes you early game flushes and the planet cards have scaled too much to switch to pairs, it happens a decent amount to me

[fickle mesa]

a lot of stuff from packs is weaker than the 3 mult although is strong in the correct circumstance

[cerulean zenith]

Died on ante 3 i need to explode

[light brook]

says the heart 🙄

[fickle mesa]

why are you even spending money on jupiters

if i open a planet pack im taking almost any planet before i take jupiter

[drowsy rain]

If I don’t have good early game mult jokers then buying jupiter for the first couple antes are fine

[fickle mesa]

this is true but a rare situation

[cerulean zenith]

Jupiter 🤤

[drowsy rain]

saturn is better but flushes are just easier

[cerulean zenith]

Flushed 🤤

[fickle mesa]

you still get roughly 1 per round

even if you take an early jupiter all you need to find is a square or a blue joker or runner or whatever

[drowsy rain]

You make it seem so easy to find chip jokers lol

[fickle mesa]

banner, splash, also common

stone cards can be used

[drowsy rain]

splash

[terse vale]

but weren’t there any other chip jokers

[terse vale]

honestly i’ve been coming around to it

[fickle mesa]

splash is a usable early game chip joker that can have later utility

[terse vale]

C- tier

[cerulean zenith]

Im bad at balatro but not even splash does enough for me to bat an eye

[terse vale]

but i’ve been coming around

[drowsy rain]

Splash is one of the ultimate “potential” jokers that never gets used

[fickle mesa]

lets not forget the fact that we're assuming you're running into enough jupiters to fully commit to flushes and absolutely no mercuries

[vale shale]

Helo peeple.

[drowsy rain]

#ilovepairslop

[fickle mesa]

its an incredibly specific situation

[terse vale]

flush is literally the slop hand 🥹

[vale shale]

Real

[drowsy rain]

Flushes stay by you when you’re at your lowest, pairs only get with you when you’re riding high

[fickle mesa]

because pairs make you ride high

[terse vale]

flushes die at ante 6 gold stake

[fickle mesa]

they accomplish

[terse vale]

and tribe

sux

[fickle mesa]

well besides ancient joker

[drowsy rain]

yeah but flushes won me ante 1

at my lowest

[terse vale]

yeah true

[cerulean zenith]

Flush won me three games today

White stake but we dont talk about that part

[lunar zealot]

Splash has no potential

[fickle mesa]

its a chip joker that can be used to throw in a gold seal or golden ticket card every once in a while

[drowsy rain]

It has “if everything aligned perfectly” scenario potential

[inner hollow]

Maybe just for like 13 extra chips for the first 2 rounds

[fickle mesa]

maybe an 8 if youve got 8 ball

[terse vale]

yuuppp

[fickle mesa]

it can do Things even if not well

[lunar zealot]

if everything aligned perfectly then you'd be playing flush five/high card

[cerulean zenith]

Splashes potential is when youre dying on the pavement and your only option is high card or death

[molten thicket]

it does

[lunar zealot]

and thus wouldn't need splash

[fickle mesa]

and its cheap so often value is positive

[inner hollow]

What do yall think abt this

[fickle mesa]

i am describing common circumstances?

[lunar zealot]

splash is a util joker in the loooooooosest sense of the world is the thing

[fickle mesa]

"early game with no chips"

[drowsy rain]

Aligning perfectly in the sense that the splash is used in its respective antes like 5 or 6 to get those enhanced cards

[lunar zealot]

It's far too niche

[drowsy rain]

like if I have a vampire

[wintry ice]

the most potential splash has is as a support for econ that depends on what card you play or for flower pot

[molten thicket]

just that the potential is so most of the time insignificant that you mostly never take it

[lunar zealot]

Like too niche for its own good

[terse vale]

i’ve been using splash as chips recently ,,

[fickle mesa]

"want to play gold seal but dont have the pair"

[wintry ice]

one isn't worth keeping it too long for and the other is like worse than blackboard

[terse vale]

early obviously

[lunar zealot]

you can just play the high card if you don't mind the less obelisk value

[drowsy rain]

I just rip the high card tbh if I lose off one hand the run was bound to die

[terse vale]

well

no

[fickle mesa]

-3 dollars means run was abt to die lol

[wintry ice]

the game's meta can literally be described as "play 1 hand over and over again and watch the boss die"

[drowsy rain]

uh no maybe I just want three dollars

[lunar zealot]

that's a little reductive though don't you think

there are 150 jokers and even discounting the ungood ones there's still like 60

[wintry ice]

it's kind of what the most effective strategy ends up being

though yeah i should have been more specific with the situation

[strange abyss]

The eye

[lament condor]

balatro players on their way to make YET ANOTHER inappropriate joke using wordplay of a joker in balatro

[delicate valve]

Splash is handy when you have a bad deck but good individual cards

[strange abyss]

Localthunk already came up with a boss to particularly counter that strategy

[lunar zealot]

I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE BBC

[wintry ice]

that is an exception that needs working around

and like

it's for 1 blind

[lament condor]

how the fuck do you twist this one

[strange abyss]

also the wall to an extent

[lunar zealot]

baseball card

[wintry ice]

we also have multiple boss blinds that counter hard to play hands

[lunar zealot]

uncommon jokers each give x1.5 mult

[wintry ice]

like needle, mouth, water and hook

[lament condor]

im tired

[drowsy rain]

mfs be like “my pairs build is bound to win” no it isn’t. The EYE 😂😂😂

[delicate valve]

The only one hand type boss is rough in inconsistent decks

[lunar zealot]

common square joker W

[wintry ice]

you could also include the debuffing boss blinds because those types of builds rely more on enhancements than usual

[strange abyss]

needle also counters spam builds if you're using all your available hands

[drowsy rain]

Extremely common two pair W

[wintry ice]

you need to score half of the usual amount for it

[lunar zealot]

you gotta understand

[strange abyss]

mouth water and hook aren't too much of an issue for pair builds

[lunar zealot]

the boss blind could be anything

So you gotta prepare for all of them

[wintry ice]

2 exceptions aren't representative of the whole state of the game

[lunar zealot]

just so happens pairs are best at preparing for most boss blinds

[strange abyss]

hook is probably the toughest of the 3

[lunar zealot]

more so than basically every other build

[lament condor]

violet vessel after fully infultrating every balatro youtuber and localthunk's mind into convincing everyone pairs are meta

[sand lily]

Death, taxes, and The Plant

[wintry ice]

hard to draw hands can also fail to rng way more easily

specially due to blue stake

[delicate valve]

Hook is easy with splash

[lunar zealot]

No correlation

[wintry ice]

they also work less well with blue seals, which are another part of the game's meta

[strange abyss]

I think what makes pair builds really good is the fact that it's scoring comes mostly from jokers which aren't that affected by boss blinds except finisher blinds

[lament condor]

im gonna make a joker tier list for gold stake brb

[terse vale]

lowkey half of all pair builds don’t really fear the eye

[strange abyss]

this plus it being very easy to get blue seal value with

[lunar zealot]

Correct

[lunar zealot]

Except my woat supernova fuck supernova

[wintry ice]

and the fact that they're easy to draw and harder to counter makes them pair extremely well with these jokers

[drowsy rain]

And that’s why mercury is stupid

[terse vale]

[inner hollow]

Uranus

[wintry ice]

haha

[lunar zealot]

Hehehehehehheeheheheheheh pair

[wintry ice]

get it

[lunar zealot]

Eheheheheheheheheheheheeheh pair

[wintry ice]

pair

[cosmic sun]

Blackboard coming in hot

[drowsy rain]

Uranus wipes the floor with mercury

[wintry ice]

haha

🍐

[lunar zealot]

I fuckin hate brainstorm man

[strange abyss]

Pretty much all the boss blinds affect the cards more than the jokers, if thunk were to balance out the game imo (as a not game developer) it would be to have some boss blinds affect jokers in some way

[wintry ice]

pair like yuri

[inner hollow]

Wipe uranus with mercury🤔

[inner hollow]

Why

[drowsy rain]

Should i test

[strange abyss]

I love blackboard

[inner hollow]

Yes

[lunar zealot]

i always get it and i dont ever need it

[cosmic sun]

victorian ahhh toilet paper

[lunar zealot]

and it sucks n i hate it

[inner hollow]

Damn

[wintry ice]

we have 2 finisher blinds that do that but they don't do enough

[inner hollow]

[strange abyss]

aaaaaa my jimbos were shuffled!

[wintry ice]

i think it'd be better to nerf the things that make pairs really powerful

[inner hollow]

I think brainstorm is like my third most used jonkler

[strange abyss]

it would be scarier if it didn't show you what the jokers do during scoring

[lunar zealot]

How would they nerf blue seals though

[lament condor]

i'll get back to yall once i graded 20 of them

[lunar zealot]

Iteration 1 was unusable and iteration 2 is overpowered

[lunar zealot]

I love the NEW tier very good

[wintry ice]

make blue seals less game-warping, make blue stake less bullshit and maybe even reduce mercury's scaling

[inner hollow]

Its bad enough

As it is

[strange abyss]

I think buffing the ability to draw stronger hands would be better for more variety

[wintry ice]

yeah

blue stake is widely considered the worst feature in the game

[inner hollow]

I love me my discards

[strange abyss]

because the game pieces that work well in pair builds can still work in other builds, albeit not as efficiently

[kind creek]

is baron bait here? (fortune teller has +8)

[strange abyss]

I think this is why 4-5 card builds are just that much harder to play on higher stakes

[terse vale]

yes

[strange abyss]

What levels are your planets?

[inner hollow]

Id take it cs why not

[terse vale]

just straight & win

[terse vale]

nonono

[lament condor]

how are we feeling so far

[terse vale]

nono

[inner hollow]

Why

[lament condor]

i should move anchent down

[wintry ice]

the main reason why seance is bad is because it pretty much never triggers

[terse vale]

there’s nothing to replace

oh wait

black deck

still wasting money

don’t buy it !!

[inner hollow]

I mean they can do wtv they want but i wouldve taken it

[kind creek]

rebate blueprint

[terse vale]

still wasting money tho :?

[kind creek]

4 levels in straught.
Never played it.
Onyx

[strange abyss]

imagine the temperance value tho

[wintry ice]

purple 8 ball up, astronomer up, baseball up, bloodstone down, baron down, bull up, banner down, business down, abstract down, blue joker down

[kind creek]

ngl I actually forgot I black deck had benefits mb

[inner hollow]

Biblical amounts of greed

[terse vale]

baron is not a good joker

[inner hollow]

Say that to my pb

[lament condor]

abstract and blue joker hate

[kind creek]

Tell that to his mime

[strange abyss]

What even is the blue 8ball

[terse vale]

endless doesn’t count for viability

[wintry ice]

i'm gonna type out a text wall to explain hold on

[lament condor]

its 1.0.01f according to the tier list

[lament condor]

i put it up there because of early game viability

[inner hollow]

What if i reached like e20 in ante 6 or sum

[terse vale]

too much variance too
98% of the time baron is poo

also

“what if”

[inner hollow]

2% times its very fun

[kind creek]

rebate wants me to sell 6s

[fickle mesa]

that means as much as reach 120 in ante 6

[kind creek]

is 20$ worth it?

throwing away a 1 card missing straight with my build

[fickle mesa]

a win is a win it doesnt matter how close or how huge it is

[terse vale]

why do you have 8 dollars

[weak relic]

Holy fucking shit

[inner hollow]

Are we playing a competition or looking at big numbers get bigger

[kind creek]

I have reroll tycoon and decided to dig a bit, found skellington
(hoped for a mime)

[inner hollow]

🤔

[strange abyss]

easy win

[lament condor]

added 10 more jokers and some changes

[fickle mesa]

i personally dont care about the numbers getting big

[terse vale]

well we playing ante 8 gold stake

[inner hollow]

Boooooo

[fickle mesa]

i know the limits, i dont care
