ANOTHER SOUL

[exotic glade]

hey guys back again

any tips for getting SPEEDRUNNER achievement in balatro??

[narrow scroll]

anaglyph deck

[patent sail]

skip blinds

[exotic glade]

well i know that but how

[patent sail]

hope this helps

[patent sail]

click on that red "skip" button

also i did it on like

ghost deck idk

[mystic pollen]

Yay

[narrow scroll]

also play flushes on ante 1 if you can

[exotic glade]

i play flushes anyways

[patent sail]

i did like almost all of my unlocks on ghost

[narrow scroll]

makes sense

[exotic glade]

so wat anaglyph deck and skip

[late kelp]

is it worth grabbing showman to try to get stencil?

[patent sail]

its trib

fuck you trib

[narrow scroll]

yeah
anaglyph deck is great for skips
maybe restart for a holo tag if you want in ante 1

[exotic glade]

good point

[narrow scroll]

any editions are amazing
and you get a lot of money from skips if you're lucky so campfire isn't bad either

[mystic pollen]

I like cartomancer

He give me the emperor taro

[narrow scroll]

from my experience you can also build a red card to +30 semi-comfortably if you get it in like ante 2

[mystic pollen]

And i get judgement and moon

[vocal mantle]

I have found my dream Balatro run

[narrow scroll]

mr bones WILL carry you

[ancient gyro]

o

[narrow scroll]

if only you had a oops

[ebon maple]

Scary

[willow frost]

ok so this is what the game looks like, it doesnt really explain anything and the features could be made far better but its a good concept

one thing i will say though, i bought a chip that said it destroys all chips around it and when it activated the game crashed so that was funny lol

although tbh im making a game right now so i have mad respect for anyone who makes games this shit impossible lol

[nova junco]

I mean it IS just a prototype on itch.io with barely any marketing what do you expect lol

[willow frost]

true

[nova junco]

Making games is hard and that guys probably in the very early stages

If anything mad respect for having the balls to put it on itch

[willow frost]

yes

[light brook]

guys i finally beat gold stake aren’t you so proud of me

[willow frost]

i havent gotten very far and i dont have time to rn but someone else here should try it, the devlog seems to show a few cool balatro-like features that arent in these screenshots

[willow frost]

is your name candom

[light brook]

it’s jandom with a c silly

[willow frost]

candom

[nova junco]

W-wheres the c

[light brook]

right there

[patent sail]

does anyone die for this

seems like i could copy trib or canio

[light brook]

what’s your deck look like

[rotund igloo]

Red card probably.

[patent sail]

pretty much a regular deck but 3 jacks died

[rotund igloo]

Since flash is eternal

[nova junco]

Ah yes my favorite synergy

Trib+Canio

[light brook]

because trib and canio are not syngery so either red or trib die here

[patent sail]

i dont choose legendaries what can i say

rd card died 🎀🎀🎀🎀

[nova junco]

I mean I'd sell one of them because they're not gonna be both useful

[patent sail]

trib still gets x4

[nova junco]

I guess you don't have to kill all face cards

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[light brook]

keep em for now and if a trading card or smth comes kill trib and if a sock or chad comes around kill canio

[ebon maple]

This seed broken

Great vouchers

[nova junco]

Wrong one

[nova junco]

[narrow scroll]

colored tarots is cool

[patent sail]

flash card skins, trading card skins

[vestal copper]

fire

[patent sail]

mail shows the rank on it

[patent sail]

castle and aj show current suit on them

[vestal copper]

that's goated

[upper spade]

I have a chance.
Flush level 12.

I just gotta get really lucky.

[patent sail]

right about everytging is animated and some jokers have interactive animations, thats like pretty much it

[vestal copper]

abandoned might have gotten me off flushes tbh

[patent sail]

though it is in development rn, 110/150 jokers done i think

[upper spade]

Nope.
Game didn't wanna play fair.

[ebon maple]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BE A CHICOT

[vestal copper]

chi🐐

[misty pawn]

Was it ?

[ebon maple]

Is glass joker hard to get gold sticked?

[nova junco]

Why do you want chicot😭

[ebon maple]

I am going to open it nos

[hollow grove]

Onto what? Mostly pairs or also other things like straight and full house

[ebon maple]

Get tje golden sticker out fobthe way

[ebon maple]

X2

[vestal copper]

well i was mostly playing flushes before and now i play diff things

[nova junco]

If it's the only gold sticker you need then it's gonna be chicot

[ebon maple]

X2

[vestal copper]

pairs are goated with scalers

[ebon maple]

Nah, i think i have more

Trib and canil 100%

But i want to fill in thebgaps in such a strong line up

[hollow grove]

Not on black deck 😭

[vestal copper]

truly

[ebon maple]

Is glass joker hard to get gold sticker on?

[rancid gull]

I think maturing is moving on from flushes, because I used to always flush

[ebon maple]

Or is one of the basic hands joker easier

Like pair +8 mult ie

Got yorick

[hollow grove]

Breaking glass with hanged man counts for glass joker scaling

[ebon maple]

Ñeh

[serene forge]

I hate Smiley Face

[ebon maple]

Ok so he aint that bad

[vestal copper]

two pairs and pairs are my homies now

[ebon maple]

Should i take droll joker or some of them?

[patent sail]

rick: yo

[upper spade]

This is either gonna go really good or really bad.

[patent sail]

i only have perkeo and yorick left in legendaries now

[ebon maple]

FUCK

[patent sail]

yorick is free win

[ebon maple]

It is already gold stickered

[patent sail]

take for funnies

[patent sail]

perkeo idk free levels worst case scenario

[ebon maple]

I am searching for stickers : (

Should i take any of them fot superposition?

[light brook]

toddlers realizing if they pee and don’t flush and empty their waste later, they only need to flush once:

[patent sail]

super is harder to stciker i think

idk

i would keep super

[misty pawn]

Skonger spotted in the wild, didn't know you liked magnetite dice this much lmao

[ebon maple]

Oki, thanks

[exotic glade]

YEAHH LETS GOO (went for an ace build) ty @patent sail for telling me to use ghost deck

[vestal copper]

i never used magne dice in skong ever btw

[ebon maple]

Selzter

Mmmmmm

Its an uncommon

And dies in rounda

But it is really strong

[patent sail]

oh you actually did it

[exotic glade]

yup second try

[patent sail]

i just said cuz thats how i did it lmao

[brave goblet]

Misplayed again

[patent sail]

well good that it worked

[patent sail]

summit carry

[misty pawn]

REAL

Gambling for the gamlie=f

[vestal copper]

truly

[patent sail]

oh might actually

[ebon maple]

Better to copy baron for scoring right?

[patent sail]

foods are annoying

[ebon maple]

And also it is uncommon

But really strong

[brave goblet]

Oh yeah ig so but it's cooked anyway

[patent sail]

i would go for it

[ebon maple]

F

@brave goblet was seltzer difficult to gold sticker??

[brave goblet]

It's hard to get a gauge of the money versus the scoring once you get past ante 20

[ebon maple]

Facts

[brave goblet]

It's been a long time idr

Let me see if I have a screenshot saved here

[patent sail]

cuz like with super you can just carry it as dead weight

seltzer will die

[ebon maple]

Should i take it over superposition?

[patent sail]

or anaglyph deck farm

[brave goblet]

If you can make it to the end with it, yes

uncommon > common

[ebon maple]

Yeah but seltzer could carry with retriggers

[ebon maple]

Oh no, i am rn before the boss

Rolling for sticker

[patent sail]

but yet again 10 hands, it might die before it makes it to the end

[brave goblet]

Yeah just ditch the superpos and take the seltzer

[ebon maple]

True

[brave goblet]

seltzer is uncommon AND deletes itself

[ebon maple]

And also with less discards

[patent sail]

super wont die no matter what

[ebon maple]

Discarded hands do count

[patent sail]

so i think its obvious

[ebon maple]

Bye bye super

Thank you guys<3

[brave goblet]

W gold sticker

[patent sail]

popcorn would be so good to get there

[vestal copper]

gg

[visual niche]

best deck/strat to get legendaries? i need the yellow legendary and i've got a full collection

[patent sail]

yorick

[brave goblet]

anything you can make it to ante 8 with and have a lot of money

so either ghost or yellow

you want to make it to ante 8 and have a lot of money, guaranteeing you open every single pack

Which increases your chances of finding at least one legendary

[visual niche]

riiight

makes sense

[patent sail]

just had a double legend run on yellow

won gold too

[ebon maple]

GGS

[visual niche]

do you find legendaries in arcana or spectral packs?

[ebon maple]

Tysm guys

I hate nebula

[ebon maple]

Both

[patent sail]

both

[visual niche]

right right

[patent sail]

0.3%

[visual niche]

wait wouldn't zodiac make it easier? or am i just delusional

[patent sail]

to replace any card

[brave goblet]

real

[patent sail]

how?

[brave goblet]

I love zodiac but you're delulu atm

[patent sail]

it would change nothing

[brave goblet]

you need money to pop every pack you can find, that's how you find legendaries lol

[visual niche]

more money and also easier access to omen globe no?

mmh alright then

[patent sail]

omen globe changes nothing

[patent sail]

for soul anyway

its 0.3% regardless

[brave goblet]

legendaries can appear in arcana packs without omen

ye

[visual niche]

well i love ghost deck so i'll go for it then

[brave goblet]

also easier access to omen globe is a magic deck thing, not zodiac

[visual niche]

[patent sail]

also yellow gives econ a good headstart

[visual niche]

doesn't zodiac have magic trick?

my bad then

[brave goblet]

No

[visual niche]

i see

[patent sail]

that wpuld be ass

[brave goblet]

Zodiac has overstock, tarot tycoon, and planet tycoon

extra credit mod bazaar deck is the one that has magic trick at the start

[patent sail]

im so glad to finally get illusion voucher out of the way

[brave goblet]

I forgot what it was, I think it was like magic trick, overstock, and discount

magic trick to fill the shop with junk to balance it out

[ebon maple]

Time for zodiack, 4 to go

[brave goblet]

have fun

take full advantage of the extra tarots

best deck

[ebon maple]

Magic my beloved

[patent sail]

i like ghost the most tbh

[ebon maple]

And anaglyph

[visual niche]

are you going for gold stakes on all of them?

[ebon maple]

Yes

[tacit stream]

chad

[brave goblet]

Ghost is the only one that lets you have freer access to a gameplay mechanic (spectrals)

most potential to snowball

[visual niche]

alright have fun 🔥

[brave goblet]

but I like zodiac most for manipulation

and the three slots

It's mortifying going back to normal decks after playing exclusively zodiac

[ebon maple]

Top tier fs

Better than blue imo

[patent sail]

also free 1.5x headstart

[ebon maple]

And yellow

[brave goblet]

ye

[ebon maple]

Exactly

Ank +hex

Early

On a decent joker

[lyric karma]

i ended up poor

[ebon maple]

Carries

[patent sail]

eternal madness

[visual niche]

i think you could tell i like usng the ghost deck 😇

[brave goblet]

I did yellow for most of my C++ and then switched to ghost to force builds with hex

[visual niche]

most used spectral is suspiciously high and useful earlygame

[ebon maple]

I think i will try anf abuse anaglyph

[brave goblet]

[brave goblet]

nah anaglyph stinky

not reliable

[visual niche]

oh wow

[ebon maple]

My inmolate so low :(

[weak relic]

Yuri doomed from the start

[brave goblet]

It's kind of fun when you knock out like a bunch of first page commons but that's about it

[patent sail]

environmental storytelling

[visual niche]

i started playing balatro literally less than a month and a half ago

so i'm lackin

[brave goblet]

jimbo knows I'll usually take it so he never gives it to me

[ebon maple]

True

[ebon maple]

[ebon maple]

But still crazy

[brave goblet]

[ebon maple]

[brave goblet]

I wonder how low my ouija is

[patent sail]

what deck should i go for golding next

yellow, ghost, abandoned, red done

[brave goblet]

[patent sail]

painted deck

[brave goblet]

Just go in order from left to right

This means next is blue

[patent sail]

i lowk go for fun ones

[brave goblet]

I once popped an oujia while holding a bean and got like 15 jacks

and lost

[visual niche]

until a week ago, pluto was like 3rd to last

[brave goblet]

(couldnt' draw a 4oak)

[vestal copper]

ouija will always be 0 for me i hope

[patent sail]

[patent sail]

inSANE

[visual niche]

then i discovered balatro high card strats

[zenith raven]

[vestal copper]

[patent sail]

[brave goblet]

egg is last? heresy

[patent sail]

[ebon maple]

My planet x being so high is funny

[vestal copper]

[brave goblet]

You can probably beat all the challenges in one sitting

[patent sail]

[vestal copper]

[ebon maple]

[zenith raven]

I got it several times but shit is janky on Apple. Lost the sticker

[patent sail]

golden needle and jonklerless may be pain

[vestal copper]

[ebon maple]

Jokerless was cool

[lyric karma]

flush my goat

[ebon maple]

Of course mercury

[patent sail]

fork found in a kitchen

[visual niche]

holy pair player

[brave goblet]

jokerless is pretty easy when you know what you're doing

a billion tarots goes a long long way

[patent sail]

my best is 60k 🥀

[ebon maple]

Facts

[patent sail]

which tells me i do NOT know what im doing

im 4oaking it

[brave goblet]

4oak is a trap

play straights

the shop is literally empty, you can trim it down hard

[patent sail]

i hate straights so much game just NEVER gives me that 5th card

[lyric karma]

come on man

[ebon maple]

Flush five>>

[brave goblet]

ong

[visual niche]

ouuchhh

[patent sail]

even on a run with trimmed deck game refused to give me that 6 until the very last hand

[vestal copper]

pairslop

[patent sail]

straights are super scary to play

[ebon maple]

All my homies hate pairslop

[ebon maple]

One of the reasons i hate nebula even more

[brave goblet]

that's fine, hands are also discards

you only need to play one straight

[vestal copper]

the horse reacts

[patent sail]

i mean yeah i still won tyere, but that sure gave me a heart attack

i guess ill tryyyy but that wont make me hate straights any less

[visual niche]

i didn't have an opinion on pairs until yesterday when i learned they're pretty op

still don't play them

but i know theyre supposed to be strong

[ebon maple]

We ball for inmolate

[ebon maple]

I am both left anf right one

[patent sail]

hermit for locking in that fool

and 1 dollar

[vestal copper]

kinda real tbh

[brave goblet]

yeah that's fine, I've been betrayed by straights several times

[ebon maple]

Also it doesnt scale 15-1 its 15-2

[rancid gull]

Flushes is for one shotting small blind ante one and that’s it

[ebon maple]

Not aaaaas bad

[ebon maple]

Sh

[vestal copper]

100 iq

[brave goblet]

that 1 mult barely matters lol

[ebon maple]

Shhhh

[patent sail]

jonklers saving

[ebon maple]

Let me live innmy wolrf

[brave goblet]

(it's for ancient joker and onyx agate)

flushes are so weak PURELY because of ancient jonker

[patent sail]

arrowing my head tho

[rancid gull]

Well ofc, ancient is the exception

But it’s rare

[vestal copper]

pairs are peak cuz burnt

[brave goblet]

It's rare because it's so powerful it warps the run into building around it

hence why I hate ancient

every ancient run is the most braindead bs ever

[lyric karma]

true

[patent sail]

pairs are peak because of like wverything

[cursive lion]

All is good

[visual niche]

oh why

nvm makes sense

[rancid gull]

What’s your most favorite rare?

[visual niche]

game was made with AJ in mind

[brave goblet]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

special place in my heart for burnt

[rancid gull]

Mmmmm yummy burnt

[cursive lion]

Just depends on the stake, deck, and the jokers or erratic/checkered/abonedoned deck cards you are able to get

[brave goblet]

burnt was my first gold I think

[patent sail]

uhhhhhhhhh idk

[short snow]

sell chad surely?

[ebon maple]

Would you kill me if i told you that i have never won with ancient despite being a flush player?

[cursive lion]

For me my favourite rare is either blueprint/brainstorm, invisible, or baseball

[brave goblet]

No, ancient can be weird like taht

[patent sail]

oh i should do checkered next yea

[brave goblet]

bricked draw

[patent sail]

flushes deck

[rancid gull]

I legit love seeing wee

Wee is so fun for me

[terse imp]

Bloodstone carries smh

[short snow]

wow same

[brave goblet]

ancient doesn't pick from your deck to balance itself out, so it's harder to deckfix

[cursive lion]

Oh yeah wee is my favourite too

[ebon maple]

Mostly cause i think i have seen him 0 times when doing flush builds

[short snow]

anyone?

[brave goblet]

lmao

[ebon maple]

I hate bloodstone

[lyric karma]

i would

[terse imp]

Just play checkered deck

[visual niche]

yup

[cursive lion]

⚠️ You alerted the translesbian shaw

[brave goblet]

exactly 1 proc -> game over

[terse imp]

Am I uncivilized for being a checkered deck player

[ebon maple]

I haye the randomness, arroehead>>>

[ebon maple]

[rancid gull]

Wee and Chad, best chip scaling

Add in hiker?

[ebon maple]

Blue seal

[terse vale]

[tough light]

Guys which jokers are best on a purple stake run with chekered deck? (I can't get past ante 6 😭🙏)

[terse imp]

Did you perhaps try bloodstone

[tough light]

Yeah

[brave goblet]

when in doubt, ride the bus

bus always wins

[terse imp]

Use greedy joker trust

[rancid gull]

True

Bus is amazing

[terse vale]

well well well

[tough light]

Which one is that?

[patent sail]

red your card

[terse vale]

I hope ur not being serious

[terse imp]

It's one of the +3 mult ones

[tough light]

Oh yeah

[terse imp]

Photochad always works right

[brave goblet]

the journey to gold stickering begins by stepping on the hex bus

[ebon maple]

Did you perhaps tried flower pot?

[patent sail]

horse react this individual

[tough light]

What does it do?

[brave goblet]

honse

[terse imp]

Why am I getting horse reacted bru

[rancid gull]

Don’t tell the bloodstone hater (ashy)

[patent sail]

most of the time nothing

[tough light]

Right I tried with bloodstone too. Still lost

[rancid gull]

Nothing

[terse imp]

Also blackboard works decent on checkered but you need RNG

[tough light]

?? 😭

[patent sail]

yeah thats what bloodstone does

kills you

[terse imp]

Bloodstone + dice???

[rancid gull]

Goated

[tough light]

The one where you gotta have a hand with only spades right?

[rancid gull]

If with dice

[patent sail]

never happening

[lyric karma]

that never happens

[molten thicket]

these fools tryna diss my bloodstone

[terse imp]

Yeah spades and clubs

[ebon maple]

Hear me out, add rare suit joker

[tough light]

I literally NEVER get dice

[short snow]

what is this seed bru

[ebon maple]

Not ancient

[short snow]

not even gonna take it

[brave goblet]

I once got doubel dice and then wondered why my glass was instantly breaking

[rancid gull]

If it’s perked I’d nut

[short snow]

not risking it

[rancid gull]

Watch it be chicot

[patent sail]

must have been the wind

[short snow]

i can post the seed after i'm done if someone wants to see what it is

[molten thicket]

[terse imp]

Canio

[terse imp]

Take it and if it's not good then savescum

[tough light]

And what's the best way to deck fix?

[patent sail]

not glnna help much tho

[short snow]

[brave goblet]

[terse imp]

Immolate

[rancid gull]

Trading card

[lyric karma]

Hanged, trading card

[short snow]

i want to keep dna because i got a steel red seal king just now

[tough light]

Yeah but it's kinda random

[patent sail]

??? that doesnt change the legendary does it

[patent sail]

still good

[terse imp]

If it's bad then you reset and don't take it

[tough light]

So like I just have to spam hanged and packs?

[patent sail]

95% of the time immolate is free

[tough light]

Alr alr

[terse imp]

Isn't the only time you don't immolate when you have only 1 copy of a good card

[rancid gull]

Immolate my beloved

[patent sail]

mayhaps

still gamble tho 🤑🤑🤑🤑

[brave goblet]

use the $20 to make a new good card

[lyric karma]

for quick deck fixing, yes

[tough light]

Alright thanks

[terse vale]

sumtimes its just nawt worth it

[terse imp]

All the justices, chariots, and deja vus mysteriously disappear when I use immolate

[brave goblet]

don't nilly willy use tarots in case of teh fool

[lyric karma]

although trading card could be better because you get money

[tough light]

Lol

[rancid gull]

Just get perkeo with blue storm easy

Quick deck fixing

[brave goblet]

lots of players don't realize it but fool targeting is a big part of deck fixing

[tough light]

I literally NEVER get ANY legendaries 😔

[terse imp]

How do I actually scale Yorick

[brave goblet]

discard

throw away everything

[rancid gull]

You discard silly goose

[languid topaz]

Ahahaha

[terse imp]

2 discards per round and 5 cards per discard so I need a full ante to get him to x2

[short snow]

DUDE

this is still the same seed

[brave goblet]

doesn't really matter anwyay, only perkeo would be a good hit

[short snow]

and i'm skipping the soul AGAIN

[lyric karma]

naneinf bait

[tough light]

Gimme some of your luck bro 😭🙏

[brave goblet]

Especially if pair slop

[patent sail]

perkolator

[brave goblet]

not many scalers can get that high

[tacit stream]

copy photo with the BPs and copy chad with BS

[terse imp]

Isn't para Canio better or is Yorick merry Andy good

[brave goblet]

both are fine

[rancid gull]

Yo Rick merry andy

[brave goblet]

canio's faster

[rancid gull]

I don’t like Fabio

[brave goblet]

I like canio more

[rancid gull]

Canio

Duality of man

[terse imp]

I got Canio on abandoned

[brave goblet]

canio has a very unique way to scale

Faceless joker got glided

[brave goblet]

canio also scales when glass breaks

[cloud sinew]

canio is slower on average and it's less consistent

[rancid gull]

Yeah but glass is guaranteed to not break when I get canio

[cloud sinew]

yorick andy is +1x per round

[brave goblet]

to-do list/matador type beat

[terse imp]

Why does chicot do nothing

[lost fractal]

my friend got ts ❤️ #HopOffWhiteStake

[brave goblet]

it's +20 mult for the dagger

[terse imp]

Seed?

[terse imp]

So is canio

[royal bobcat]

Mercuslop metaslop

[brave goblet]

but canio doesn't do nothing

[terse vale]

ok

[terse imp]

Nuh uh whenever I get Canio then all the hanged and immolates disappear

[brave goblet]

sounds like someone's got no money

[lost fractal]

ill ask him once he finishes
ghost deck, he hexed a brainstorm and mail in rebate on ante 1 ound 1

[short snow]

does dna work on defuffed cards?

i gotta sell it anyway but i'm wondering if i can use it first

[terse imp]

Yeah but it makes debuffed copies

[tough light]

Which one should I take??

[short snow]

they're gonna be un-debuffed when i sell dna

[terse imp]

Wouldn't have happened if you had chigoat

[short snow]

midas mask with vampire is good

[tough light]

Alr alr thanks

[short snow]

i lost bc i can't get my hand big enough without dna

unlucky

[terse vale]

hoooh I love tarot blocking

[terse vale]

poo vs peak

always midas here

[short snow]

only ante 17 zzz surely this seed has way more potential

didn't even get a mime

UBVLFBLK

[tough light]

Bet

[brave goblet]

$42 is why lol

L

past e20 is so stressful

[terse imp]

Can someone tell me why ante 24 is so bad

[inland helm]

i believe its because 24 is when you start seeing boss blinds you've already passed again

i could be wrong

[terse vale]

thats ante 16 !

happens at every 8th ante

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[terse vale]

so you’re still kinda right

[inland helm]

i dont think thats true

i cant see the plant ante 7 then see it again ante 9 (unless i have retcon)

[terse vale]

oh no I misinterpreted sorry

I thought you meant finisher blinds

[inland helm]

ohh

[lyric karma]

again

[inland helm]

gotcha

[terse vale]

yeah I think its 25 then? cus 24 is a finisher boss

[rancid gull]

Oh no. The bloodstone hater

[inland helm]

true

[terse vale]

there’s a chance but

I dont wanna take it

[cloud sinew]

you start seeing repeat boss blinds as soon as youve seen every other boss blind

it's not at a specific ante

i.e if you reroll more you'll see repeats sooner

[inland helm]

ig that makes sense, but if you dont reroll at all its ante 25 you start seeing repeats right

this is making me realize i dont actually know the exact number of boss blinds in this game lol

[terse vale]

ok this is not good

[cloud sinew]

you start seeing repeats at ante 27 at the latest

[inland helm]

ough

then why is ante 24 so bad cuz i thought that was why

[cloud sinew]

its bad because of there being no serpent to help you beat it

and the scoring requirements are very high

[inland helm]

ooooooohhhhhhhhhhh

[cloud sinew]

nothing to do with repeat bosses

[inland helm]

ok that makes a lot of sense

[lyric karma]

five eternals

[terse vale]

ok verdant leaf is a problem but also I will probably die if I reroll

I mean I do have a chariot

bro why haven’t I been making glass

I saw one justice in this run I should have known

[calm furnace]

back from retirement for the lamest win ever

[terse vale]

double chariot gg

[weak relic]

Damn im kinda washed up now I literally just lost 3 times in abandoned deck after winning on black deck

[lyric karma]

Gg

going all eternal jokers was fun

[ancient gyro]

im in a bit of a moral dilemma

[blissful cedar]

Whats the moral weight behind it

[ancient gyro]

removing a good joker for another gold sticker

[terse vale]

kinda looks like you need both

[ancient gyro]

im scoring in the millions via planet levels

[blissful cedar]

You've won

The sticker above all else

[ancient gyro]

my hesitation is to remove obbylicks since well
7 hs
4 more throwaway fodder hands

[terse vale]

ohhh

[ancient gyro]

new decision

[hollow grove]

Zany is so annoying

I've lost too many times in ante 1/2 taking Zany and then not being able to draw 3oak

I'm guessing you're keeping Baron for the sticker?

I'd personally swap into Zany even though Zany is common

At least Baron genuinely helps you win in the right circumstances so in a way is easier to get a sticker on

[ancient gyro]

he did nothing this run with my 11 kings

oh well

[hollow grove]

Rude!

[ancient gyro]

there's the seed in case anybody wants to prove otherwise

[hollow grove]

gg on the win/stickers

[vestal copper]

oh my god

[foggy bane]

The mailman build

[long sinew]

crazy

[opal delta]

get another

[vestal copper]

if only i could

[fickle mesa]

you can get baron to work, its just that in most situations where baron works, other options are better

[vestal copper]

thats what the run is for now

[fresh oyster]

I'm never going to win orange stake on red deck

[royal bobcat]

Pooping my spare trousers

[royal bobcat]

Life does be cruel

[foggy bane]

I like the commitment to the two mail ins

[fresh oyster]

I've lost almost a HUNDRED runs

In ONE DAY

[sullen aspen]

dumbest deck ive had

ig thats what dna + bp and bs does

[fringe nebula]

you will

trsut

trust

[valid bane]

Pls ignore the eternal sixth sense 😔 .

Should I sell anything for blueprint here?

[fringe nebula]

sock

[sullen aspen]

maybe sock

r u playing flush5?

[valid bane]

Not yet

[sullen aspen]

alr then sock goes

[valid bane]

Cheers

[fresh oyster]

I'll try to win that stake on double deck

Or whatever its name is

[sullen aspen]

what hand r you playing?

if ur solely relying on ONE hand type

maybe thats ur issue

u should be open to everyone of them

[fresh oyster]

I try to play double pairs and full houses

[sullen aspen]

have u tried straights?

[fresh oyster]

I've never won with high card

[fresh oyster]

Yes

Lots of times

[sullen aspen]

uhh

pairs?

4ok?

[fresh oyster]

Never

Just a pair?

The one that has two cards?

TWO?

[sullen aspen]

ok thats ur issue

pairs are BUSTED bro

😭

[fresh oyster]

Are they

Idk I've never tried

[sullen aspen]

yes

have u unlocked the certificate joker?

[fresh oyster]

They can't be THAT good bro

[sullen aspen]

any early certificate = free win

[royal bobcat]

They are though

[fresh oyster]

The one that gives you a new card every round won

?

[sullen aspen]

or early supernova/green joker/ride the bus

[royal bobcat]

Ew supernova

Supoopnova

[sullen aspen]

the one that gives a sealed card

every round

[fresh oyster]

Yeah I got that one

[sullen aspen]

its really good with pairs

belive it or not

[fresh oyster]

Alright I'll try

[rotund igloo]

Yes it is

[sullen aspen]

if u can get ur purple seals and blue seals early

then thats game

just find a scaling mult joker

and good xmult

[foggy bane]

Theres a reason most gold stake players just spam mercurys

[rotund igloo]

Just watch out for the needle

[sullen aspen]

not even good xmult

u can get away with something like acrobat

[sullen aspen]

that or the eye

[fresh oyster]

What other jokers apart from

Supernova, green joker, ride the bus, certificate and acrobat

Are really good with pairs

[sullen aspen]

red card

runner

obelisk

spare trousers

[foggy bane]

Hologram is just generally good but especially when you have certificate

[sullen aspen]

duo

[sullen aspen]

yes

black board + stuntman is a god given too

u have 6 hand size which means free 3x mult every hand

[lyric karma]

with marble too

[serene forge]

half joker, mime, dagger, banner, summit, fist, fibonacci, space joker, blackboard, runner, carp sharp, red card, square, obelisk, bull, trousers, ramen, castle, campfire, wee, seeing double, duo, stuntman, burned jonkler, canio, yorick,

[autumn glen]

is it just me it is anything above blue stake just not fun

feels like it just becoming depending on good luck

[fresh oyster]

I'd say the same

[lyric karma]

like the rest of the game

[serene forge]

I hate blue steak itself but I like gold stake

[autumn glen]

yes but after blue stake the modifers REALLY just become "get good jokers or die"

[serene forge]

yes thats the point of the game

get good jokers and win

[vestal copper]

get good or die

[autumn glen]

it should be you can win no matter what, not resetting at the start until you get a good tag at the start

[naive cove]

@serene forge egg

[lyric karma]

the thing is

you can win

[serene forge]

so not only is that not what you said

thats just not true at all

burnt gg

[rich mauve]

green goblin mask?

[lyric karma]

you just need to do good decisions

[rich mauve]

all roads lead to rome?

[vestal copper]

omfg
every single blind was such a close call 😭

how in the fuck did i still win

[lyric karma]

faith

[vestal copper]

cheart landed on every single card except rebate

[autumn glen]

play as good as you can, you dont get good jokers you just cant win because of purple scaling

[vestal copper]

and all of em mattered in scoring

[autumn glen]

what

[vestal copper]

ts would be such a cool run if it was gold 😭

abandoned orange here we go

[odd sorrel]

The plant strikes yet again

[serene forge]

thats not photochad that's photo

(trash)

[vestal copper]

eternal burglar first buffoon pack

lmao

[autumn glen]

explain how its not true

[serene forge]

im not the one who has to disprove your claim you brought up unsubstantiated

[lyric karma]

all jokers can be good

[autumn glen]

Ok ill back up my claim
Since on higher stakes scaling is high and small binds dont give money, its better to reset runs until you get good tags

[lyric karma]

you just need to know how to build up your plays

[serene forge]

what do you think makes a good joker

or a bad one

[serene forge]

uhh

[autumn glen]

8 ball:

[serene forge]

small blinds do give money

you get interest

and a shop

lol

[cosmic sun]

no

[serene forge]

seems like you still lack fundamentals

thats okay though

[serene forge]

8ball is ok

[autumn glen]

https://youtu.be/IgXUk1U8HJQ?si=bF6mUd6jWSYSfv1h

ive beaten gold stake

[serene forge]

that tells me nothing

[autumn glen]

same chance as wheel of fortune and requires a ton of deck building just for a CHANCE of just a TAROT

[serene forge]

credentials arent really an argument

[serene forge]

tarot gen is good

[autumn glen]

why you would deck build for that when you can deck build for something that actually gives score

[serene forge]

ok I just skimmed through your video

you're skipping way too much first and foremost

you should not be ending the game with 16 rounds played

[serene forge]

tarot gen gives money and consistency which leads to scoring

[harsh relic]

cant you do 4oak with the 8s? 8 ball is also good with only the starting 8s

[autumn glen]

What's wrong with it? I think all the tags i got were worth it

[cosmic sun]

Shops > skips

[rich mauve]

fibonaccimaxxing

[lyric karma]

you are depending too much on tags

[rich mauve]

🔥

[serene forge]

you double skipped holo tags ante 1 dawg

[harsh relic]

frfr

[autumn glen]

purple scaling:

[serene forge]

you would be better off just ignoring tags exist

other than investment tag

they're just not good usually

[gentle island]

couldnt find an extra non gold joker

so just +1

[cosmic sun]

Doing luck based things like skipping then complaining that every game feels like a coin toss

Crazy

[autumn glen]

when i dont skip i get THE MOST AWFUL LUCK IN SHOPS EVER

[gentle island]

I like ante 1 tags

[terse vale]

dont skip

[cosmic sun]

Cap cap cap

[serene forge]

thats why you need to see shops

the more shops you see the more likely you are to see a good one

[vestal copper]

whatever this is

[autumn glen]

when i skip i get good shops but when i dont skip i get shit

[harsh relic]

more shops more planets more tarots spectral packs

[serene forge]

fyi taking joker skips just gives you the next joker in the queue for free

you're not actually manipulating the shop like that

[gentle island]

anyway first full page

[cosmic sun]

What are the chances they ignore good jokers in shops

[serene forge]

you skipped and got a perishable 8ball and a wrathful joker dude

cmon

[autumn glen]

how long does that take

[serene forge]

you cannot in good faith call that good

[gentle island]

too long

[serene forge]

especially since you were just trashing on 8ball now

[autumn glen]

your ingoring the hack

[serene forge]

hack for what

lmao??

[cosmic sun]

Hack

[serene forge]

also

once again

you would have seen that joker pack if you didn't skip

[autumn glen]

i get good value from it later with baseball card and deck building

[serene forge]

you're also on checkered deck so you really shouldn't be skipping for anything but investment

[autumn glen]

its free and holo might as well take it

[serene forge]

thats true for every deck but more for checkered

because your early game is so easy

[serene forge]

it's literally not free you skipped a blind for it

[cloud sinew]

it's not better to lose, no.

resetting is losing

[cloud sinew]

baseball is very speculative, and "deck building" doesnt really matter much. you need scoring now. retriggers do basically nothing for you on their own

[terse vale]

it aucks WRONG MESSAGEP

[cosmic sun]

I don't think this person has that many GS runs so here is my challenge: beat gold stake without skipping (minus ante 1 investment tag) and do it several times and tell me how your experience changed

[terse vale]

hack is isnt that good tbh

like its okay

[cloud sinew]

yeah

hack does virtually nothing there

8ball + hack synergy /s

[serene forge]

checked seed and ante 1 buffoon has non rental non perishable non eternal mystic summit

wat

[lyric karma]

man

😭

[autumn glen]

SEE ITS SHIT

[cloud sinew]

what

thats one of the best jokers you can find that early

theres no way you just said that

[lyric karma]

guaranteed mult

[cloud sinew]

+15 mult that's very easy to activate

[serene forge]

I thought you might say that

[unreal topaz]

leftover hand money and safety allowing you to save money for interest

[autumn glen]

you cant tell me that summit is good and dimiss hack...

[cloud sinew]

I can

[serene forge]

my suggestion is to be more open minded

[cloud sinew]

summit is +15 mult

hack is, at best, +20 chips

[serene forge]

there's probably a lot of jokers that you think are bad that are actually good

[unreal topaz]

what does hack do for you? especially from the first shop

[frank grove]

hack is fun but like hack requires other stuff to be great

[lyric karma]

Yea

[autumn glen]

retriggering cards for more spade card triggers for mult later in the run

[cloud sinew]

later in the run

[frank grove]

it doesnt do anything without like luckys, glass, i guess even steve and toddy

[cloud sinew]

you need scoring NOW

[serene forge]

also

[autumn glen]

its holo

[serene forge]

you should not be building into fucking wrathful joker long term

[terse vale]

dude

[serene forge]

if you can help it

[cloud sinew]

which is worse than a summit

[frank grove]

yeah

[cloud sinew]

and you lost a shop and a round of econ for it

[frank grove]

wrath is not super useful

[unreal topaz]

what was the seed/deck?

[terse vale]

skipping sucks because opportunity cost

[unreal topaz]

i wanna try this

[serene forge]

ante 2 you get the choice of trading card or burglar lmfao

[serene forge]

7UTEJZQG checkered gold

[frank grove]

15 mult or 10 mult from the holo doesnt last all game, and a holo hack is so expensive compared to non holo summit

[cloud sinew]

burglar summit and theyre saying the hack skip was worth it lol

[terse vale]

would I be stupid to pick burglemeister here

[autumn glen]

it was free...

[cosmic sun]

I'm a burglar fan

[cloud sinew]

it's not free

you lost a shop and a round of econ

[serene forge]

burglar is perishable tcard is eternal

[terse vale]

the holo skip?

[frank grove]

You took a skip?

thats not free

[terse vale]

the thing that cost you a shop and a round of money ?

[cloud sinew]

you're seeing it cost $0 and assuming it's free, you're not factoring in the opportunity cost of skipping.

[unreal topaz]

so i could even beat it without taking the buffoon pack then

probably

[harsh relic]

me too 🔥🔥🔥

[serene forge]

yeah they double skipped holo tags ante 1 and got perishable 8ball and wrathful joker

[cloud sinew]

DOUBLE SKIPPED?

holy shit thats even worse

[terse vale]

ohhhhh

[serene forge]

you can watch the video

[frank grove]

double skipped for 20 mult 😭

[cosmic sun]

hubris

[cloud sinew]

just because a run wins doesnt mean you played well

[serene forge]

they ended run with 16 rounds played

[cloud sinew]

thinking that winning means a strategy is good can, and will, push you to playing suboptimally

[vestal copper]

window when i built into diamond flush five

vruh

[frank grove]

i want my balatro game half off please waiter !!

[cloud sinew]

if something wins consistently, sure

but winning at all doesnt mean that it's good

hell, BU won black deck gold stake jokerless

[serene forge]

ante 1 also has bus but it's rental eternal so I can't cook them over that sadly 😔

[cosmic sun]

I would say that's salvageable but my blue deck bias is showing

🦅

[cloud sinew]

thats not worth on checkered

[serene forge]

yea probably not

[autumn glen]

bus is only good on abandoned

[terse vale]

please

[cloud sinew]

this isnt true at all

[cosmic sun]

shhhh shhhhhhhh shhhhh

[serene forge]

you have a lot to learn

[frank grove]

neigh

[cloud sinew]

bus isnt even that much better on abandoned

[terse vale]

not playing a face card isn’t hard

[cloud sinew]

it's good on pretty much every deck

[serene forge]

bus is good on every deck except like plasma

[terse vale]

simply discard and use aces to your advantage

[serene forge]

because plus mult is crap on plasma

[frank grove]

yeah but like i mean all scaling mult is kinda bad on plasma ish

[serene forge]

you should never be crashing a bus like ever

[cloud sinew]

really fast +mults and retroactive +mults are the goal for plasma

[serene forge]

maybe if it was burglar vs house and you got the most insane bad luck of all time

[autumn glen]

im gonna say "legendary cards are good" and yall are gonna say im wrong at this point

[serene forge]

thats literally the only thing I can think of

[cloud sinew]

we aren't disagreeing with you on principle

[cosmic sun]

"I should pick up this negative splash because it'd look cool in the final screenshot"

[terse vale]

well you just have to say more stuff that makes sense

[serene forge]

we got a strawman aficionado over here 😎

[serene forge]

so true

[terse vale]

lowkey are you absorbing what we’re saying

[cloud sinew]

you're a new player, you shouldn't really be surprised that you have "bad takes"

[cosmic sun]

Bus is bad to them because they glaze retriggers and face cards

[cloud sinew]

the important part is being receptive to differing opinions

[terse vale]

are you taking our points into account cus I haven’t really seen you respond to any of it

[rotund igloo]

It takes time to learn. I thought bus was bad too at one point

[serene forge]

in all my hours I have crashed a bus exactly one time and that was because I was playing during my organic chemistry lecture and wasn't really paying attention

and played a flush to scale obelisk

[cosmic sun]

If it isn't either of those they probably think every other joker is bad and they probably think Trib is the best legendary

[cloud sinew]

its been optimal for me to crash bus twice in 1000 hours

[serene forge]

how so

[cosmic sun]

For me it's autopiloting

[cloud sinew]

bus r2 into the boss, wouldnt have scored enough if i didnt play a higher hand with faces

[terse vale]

watch them say it is

[serene forge]

makes sense

[cosmic sun]

erm guys...but if you retrigger a king and queen...

[tranquil steppe]

No not right now. Gotta finish modifying silver first

[quaint stag]

"trib is the best legendary" mfs when the plant is next

chigoat will save us

[rich mauve]

chigoat

[cosmic sun]

These players will sell a Chicot when they see it cause it's not Trib, then their photochad build dies to plant or verdant leaf

[autumn glen]

who would sell chicot 😭

[wintry ice]

selling chicot on a photochad run is a massive throw

[cloud sinew]

ive sold chicot before

some runs just arent in any danger of dying to bosses
