[quaint stag]

why have you forsaken king chigoat

[serene forge]

I saw someone before that was about to lose a trib photochad run to plant and was like "literally nothing I could do" but then someone pointed out the justice just chilling in their consumable slots

[rich mauve]

I would if it was ante 1

10$ that early

[rotund igloo]

Its playing with fire for sure. But sometimes its fun to play risky in balatro

[terse vale]

LOLL

[frank grove]

😭

[cosmic sun]

There are a lot of risky plays but definitely more than photochad brainrot

[patent sail]

my favorite risky play is opening balatro

[autumn glen]

"all jokers can be good"
"ew photochad"

[molten thicket]

that's way too risky

[cosmic sun]

Shhhhh shhhhhh before you bury yourself deeper

[patent sail]

ew flower pot

[cosmic sun]

🤫

[patent sail]

thats a combo of jokers not a joker

[serene forge]

you called bus bad btw

[vestal copper]

photochad is good its just not fun

[molten thicket]

wha

[frank grove]

Also chads not bad photo is kinda meh

[patent sail]

photochad isnt inherently bad btw, its just

1. boring
2. plant exists

[serene forge]

photochad is good but it's a huge crutch usually

[frank grove]

Yeah

[cosmic sun]

It's not about photochad being good but the overeliance people have on it and what it means for how they play

[serene forge]

yea

[rich mauve]

not even in the comment sections

✌🏻

[patent sail]

only bad joker in this game is flower pot 🗣

jk

bl*odstone

[serene forge]

*blowman

[foggy bane]

And matador

[frank grove]

Showman is .. there

[foggy bane]

Okay sorry i guess

[frank grove]

Matador has won me dozens of runs I love that guy

[serene forge]

I did a bloodstone run yesterday then hopped into a shower for 30 minutes

[calm furnace]

boots

[terse vale]

photochad can be good its just a noob strat

[wintry ice]

something being overcentralizing is enough to make it boring

[patent sail]

not as horrible as fl*wer pot

[frank grove]

Also boots is fine

[serene forge]

not even a million showers will make me feel clean

[frank grove]

It’s not great or even good it’s just fine

[calm furnace]

worse than swash or avstract

[serene forge]

boots are kind of bad but they're usable

[royal bobcat]

Boot is bad

[calm furnace]

its not fine its scaling is hella ass

[frank grove]

It’s fine

[calm furnace]

it should be +4 at least

[cosmic sun]

Shhhhh shhhhh

[frank grove]

If you have 0 dollars it’s horrible

[royal bobcat]

The only unusable joker is idol

[patent sail]

if i see him early bros getting picked up because in very likely to run into something that i can farm

[calm furnace]

if you jave 25 its horrible

[autumn glen]

are you guys really dogpiling everyone with a different opinion

[frank grove]

But it’s not that hard to get to 100-200

[cosmic sun]

"Think carefully before the next message"

[molten thicket]

boots is a joker you take when you're desperate

[frank grove]

But it can be a trap because people never reroll to find x mult later on

[wintry ice]

joker so good it made a balatro player shower

[royal bobcat]

Bootstraps is a joker you take when you need a gold sticker on it

[terse vale]

I don’t really do the reaction spam myself but I can say that he’s just kinda wrong

[calm furnace]

yes the average gols stake run where you are sitting on 100$ and don't have to reroll for xmult or scale anything

[cosmic sun]

Okay but let me explain why: if you see a matador in shop and the next boss blind is a suit debuffer, and your hands are spammable, that is $8 per hand.

[patent sail]

reaction spamming is fun what can i say

[calm furnace]

baseball card value

[royal bobcat]

If that doesn't happen you just play poorly mate

[foggy bane]

Even i as the victim thought it was pretty funny

[calm furnace]

just like flower pot

[molten thicket]

sigh

[frank grove]

I mean I’ve used boots quite a bit it’s not that hard

[rancid gull]

Flower pot is the best joker in the game

[wintry ice]

boots is far worse than all of the viable +mult jokers

[rancid gull]

Hands down

[royal bobcat]

Nobody said it was hard

[sage zodiac]

It's great with money tree

[royal bobcat]

We said it was BAD

[calm furnace]

ive won with baron many times

its not that hard

[cosmic sun]

Boots barely shows up or me if I have money tbh and/or I already have a superior multer

[frank grove]

Yeah

But you said no one has more than 100 dollars in a gs run

[wintry ice]

and "viable" includes erosion and ft

[frank grove]

Or that is not super common to do that

[cosmic sun]

Anyways I'm also just using that money to get good jokers

[royal bobcat]

It doesn't happen often no

In gold stake there is no reason to stockpile money

[rancid gull]

Like flower pot

[frank grove]

Ive done it in like 4/5 of my last few runs?

It’s not too difficult to get money in the game

[cosmic sun]

splash flower pot

trust

[royal bobcat]

Cross reacting doesn't change anything

[patent sail]

if you ever see it you shoukd hold R

[rancid gull]

I will bless your game with a guaranteed bloodstone drop first uncommon

[vocal rose]

anecdotal evidence doesn’t change the fact it’s one of the least viable +mult jokers

[cosmic sun]

I haven't seen a boots run in a while tbh

[royal bobcat]

"but wait I managed to get 100$ last run" yeah and last week I had a run with to the moon and money tree

And?

[cosmic sun]

I think I do good at avoiding using dookie

[patent sail]

bloodstone triggers sometimes every once in a while

flower pot? never

[calm furnace]

the R in flower stands for hold R

[frank grove]

Yeah I guess but it wouldn’t say it’s bad?

[terse vale]

the problem is rerolling into stuff

[frank grove]

It’s worse than red card and bus sure

[patent sail]

G in it stands for Good

[calm furnace]

its bad

[frank grove]

But it’s probably better than fortune teller

[calm furnace]

its worse than half joker

[sage zodiac]

Red card and bus are great

[calm furnace]

its worse than abstract

[cosmic sun]

I've scaled more fortune tellers than boots tbh

[vocal rose]

it is bad in comparison to its other jokers

[rancid gull]

Mmmmm fortune teller

[vocal rose]

very bad

[wintry ice]

anecdotal evidence doesn'r tell the full story

[royal bobcat]

Abstract has better money scaling than bootstraps

[autumn glen]

i say bus is bad i get clowned but when he says it bad no one cares

[frank grove]

Ok maybe i just hold money well a lot idk ?

[cosmic sun]

Again fortune teller's problem is that it's slow not that it's restrictive

[royal bobcat]

Checkmate liberals

[patent sail]

fortune teller aint even bad,ive had him come in clutch before

[terse vale]

well they didn’t say it was bad

[frank grove]

I feel like it’s fine mult not great not good but it’s fine ?

[rancid gull]

Fortune teller is awesome imo

[royal bobcat]

Fortune teller is a nice boost late game since it's retroactive

[calm furnace]

its problem is also thats its very expensive 6$ to buy

[patent sail]

they said its better than something 😭

[terse vale]

i’ve never used fortune teller so idk

[patent sail]

you misread th message

[royal bobcat]

It should rly just be 4$

[cloud sinew]

its one of the worst scaling +mults in the game

[calm furnace]

too cheap

[cosmic sun]

Top 10 scalers you would frown seeing ante 1

[patent sail]

ikr thats when i had him come in clutch

[calm furnace]

its not early game joker

just like Jj

[royal bobcat]

5$? But the requirement to get its mult rolling costs money

[wintry ice]

jj kind of just works like a better version of it

[royal bobcat]

Hi lilo

[cosmic sun]

JJ may or may not mog depending on circumstances

[west python]

guys

[unreal topaz]

blue seals strike again

[cosmic sun]

I've definitely had more JJ runs

[royal bobcat]

I will never buy the JJ propaganda

[west python]

have any1 meet with soft lock?

[sage zodiac]

Banana is best scaling joker

[rancid gull]

Yesssssss I love pairs

[frank grove]

JJ is better because you get to see more stuff which is nice, but a lot of people roll down which is not good

[royal bobcat]

Jokers scaling from +mult to xmult are very rare indeed

[west python]

i js clicked smh and i lost all blind GUI thing

[cosmic sun]

It is a slow inconsistent scaler that requires more money and more setup than other scalers to reach a ceiling that doesn't really matter

[west python]

i cant do anything if im trying to join my game

[cosmic sun]

And because people get JJ to 100 once they glaze it like no tomorrow instead of looking at situations with more than 2 braincells

[patent sail]

best scaler is bloodstone

gains +0 mult per never

[rotund igloo]

Blue seals my beloved

[calm furnace]

bull and boots share the mechanic yet one of them is great the other is shit and its purely down the scaling value.

bull at 25$ is basically an uncommon sly joker that can scale and at 50$ its a very respectable chip joker comparable to a square or a runner that has been scaled for a while

boots at 50$ is just worse than half joker

[sage zodiac]

Bloodstone is great until it isn't

[patent sail]

0/5 triggers

[cloud sinew]

which is usually.

[sage zodiac]

0/20 triggers

[cosmic sun]

Anyways the funny thing is people who glaze worse jokers are gonna see more runs with them cause they're more likely to pick them and win runs off luck

[royal bobcat]

Not to mention you want to stay at 25$ at least

Unless you have money tree there is no reason to stay at 100$

[simple jacinth]

golben neeble

[scarlet oyster]

anything i can do here or is it over

[cloud sinew]

its over

[scarlet oyster]

i figured

[royal bobcat]

o7

[scarlet oyster]

i greeded to hard on the golden ticket

[calm furnace]

yeah, unless you have like yorick at x10 and boss reroll you always wanna reroll for more xmult to beat VV

[patent sail]

hot take: i like balatro

[shell dagger]

bull has a worse mult:chips ratio than boots but gets away with it bc there are a bajillion mult scalers and 0.6 chips scalers

[calm furnace]

in balatro you build expecting VV and not rerolling reduces the chance of beating VV

[foggy bane]

Mods ban then forever

[rotund igloo]

Congrats

[sage zodiac]

Steel your kings and buy mime

[royal bobcat]

On top of chip sources being rarer and so bull being inherently more valuable

[unreal topaz]

even then i'm still rerolling for tarot cards for style points

[cloud sinew]

you build expecting every worst case tbf

[scarlet oyster]

ive been going for mime for 9 antes bro

[west python]

I got bugged or sum
Is this jover for me 😔

[calm furnace]

VV is the worst case tho

isnt it?

[cloud sinew]

not always

[calm furnace]

crimson is RNG

[simple jacinth]

got very lucky, and skips were dead helpful

[cloud sinew]

crimson is RNG which means it can be worse

[wintry ice]

scarcity makes things more valuable

it's economics

[calm furnace]

yeah

[heavy heron]

oops! my finger slipped

[west python]

can any1 help?

[unreal topaz]

ante 8 bosses arent always the worst

[simple jacinth]

last ante I got flush upgraded, then got trash tag and voucher tag

[unreal topaz]

sometimes needle or flint is worse depending on the timing

[calm furnace]

true

[unreal topaz]

for example

[calm furnace]

sometimes the Ox can kill a run because it kills your econ

[royal bobcat]

That's why instead of making everyone work at 20h a week you only employ 2/3rds of the population at 38h a week anyway

Chips good

[unreal topaz]

or the tooth

[royal bobcat]

Mult mid

[unreal topaz]

usually the ox tho

[royal bobcat]

[calm furnace]

also lol is there any joker that dies to one boss blind worse than boots to the ox?

[west python]

please help 😭 is there any way to fix that?

[cloud sinew]

not unless youre on steam

[scarlet oyster]

restart?

[foggy bane]

You can get around the ox most of the time by just not playing your most played hand

[royal bobcat]

Card sharp needle/eye

[west python]

im on phone

[cloud sinew]

which is the hand youre scoring the most with most of the time.

[cloud sinew]

then you can't

[calm furnace]

yeah true

[west python]

fuck 😭

[wintry ice]

card sharp atleast works for the rounds after eye

[scarlet oyster]

ive never got that before

that sucks

[cloud sinew]

you savescummed a pack from a skip

[royal bobcat]

That's true

[cloud sinew]

for future reference, don't do that.

[west python]

its been my luckiest black deck run, i js need to unlock last deck raah

[cloud sinew]

or you used immolate/hanged man in a pack and had no cards left in the pack

[sage zodiac]

Half joker to psychic

[royal shale]

Trib V Plant and HRT v Water come to mind

[cloud sinew]

boots/bull to ox isnt even that big of a deal considering theyre unconditional scoring sources

[sage zodiac]

A lot of jokers die to plant

[west python]

i js missclicked on green joker tag and then somehow i js left the game bc i got called, then this happened

[sage zodiac]

Sock, chad, and baron come to mind

[calm furnace]

thats assuming you have both and can afford to play adifferent hand

but blue seals and sticking to a hand is somethign

[lyric shore]

those two jokers are inherently good at playing other hands

[calm furnace]

only baron

plant does nothing to photochad

[weak relic]

Js replayed black deck for fun

[brave goblet]

Ironic

AFTER I USED MY HANGED MAN

[calm furnace]

if you run photochad without glass just uninstall the game

[cloud sinew]

scary, smiley, STM, trib...

[lyric shore]

htr

[weak relic]

An already doomed yuri

It seems

[calm furnace]

STM sure but what are the odds you are only scoring from face cards via smiley and scary face the whole run?

[wintry ice]

and only 3 of those are really used past midgame

[lyric shore]

if that is your scoring it kills it

[ancient gyro]

I know a few use cases

[brave goblet]

Right after I landed perkeo too

[calm furnace]

early game yes, late game you are dead eitherway if smiley is your source of mult

[weak relic]

Stm pretty good ngl

I like it more than baron

[calm furnace]

stm is baron but good

[fossil rover]

tbh i dont think ive ever won an unseeded perkio run hot take he isnt the greatist majority of the time

[calm furnace]

perkeo is situational

[fossil rover]

yeah

[brave goblet]

perkeo is just cartomancer but you get to pick your tarot

[ancient gyro]

lukewarm

[patent sail]

worst case scenario hes a free planet level every round

[calm furnace]

but perkeo can make or break a run with how good it is at generating value

[patent sail]

which is not bad

[calm furnace]

free campfire value, more scaling for const

more scaling for hologram

[brave goblet]

I had a hilarious perkeo stm run the other day where it turned like 90% of my deck to red steel queen

[wintry ice]

tarot filtering

[calm furnace]

i had a run perkeo scaled steel joker 0.2x a round is not a joke

[wintry ice]

holo dna at home

[fossil rover]

lol

[calm furnace]

perkeo might not be the best legendary but sure is the most fun

[weak relic]

Last time I used perkeo I duped shit tons of incantation to feed hologram

[calm furnace]

perkeo on ghost deck is some freak shit

[calm furnace]

i once had enough immolates to go down to 0 cards but i was a coward and sold them

[fossil rover]

agree to disagree

[foggy bane]

One card deck wouldve been so fire

[calm furnace]

damn that sounds like a cool run

1 card run

[terse vale]

well thats yorick

[cunning anvil]

Yo, I just won my first red stake run

[terse vale]

o cool

[fossil rover]

ol

lol

[foggy bane]

Welcome to the balatro grind

[brave goblet]

green will be the first difficulty hurdle

[foggy bane]

It will ruin your life

[calm furnace]

black

[brave goblet]

no, stake*

[calm furnace]

oh

[terse vale]

black isnt that bad but its hard for new players ig

[cunning anvil]

Gonna try next stake soon

[foggy bane]

Black stake is the most fun in my opinion

[brave goblet]

I actually had a pretty easy time with black and blue, it was the score ramp ups that were the scariest

i.e. green and purple

[foggy bane]

Eternal jokers make ankh less risky

[terse vale]

yyyeeaaaaaa

[brave goblet]

gonna ankh my eternal delayed gratif

[cunning anvil]

This was my run

[gilded hull]

Here's my build. I'm using Pair 27 times btw

[exotic glade]

hi guys

[brave goblet]

dual madness 🔥

[foggy bane]

Discount photochad

[brave goblet]

you should've put the hologram or the duo for brainstorm to copy, would've given more points lol

[cunning anvil]

Fair

Eh, still got over a million

[brave goblet]

and copying sock in-between to farm lucky and gold seals

[brave goblet]

but it could've been mooooooore

[foggy bane]

Think about the minmaxxing dude

[cunning anvil]

Didn’t have much for that. Holo was at like 3x or something. Wasn’t much

[foggy bane]

Negative card sharp looks an awful lot like blackface

I cant be the only one seeing that

[serene forge]

so true

[brave goblet]

that's more than on smiley face, which is like a sort of weaker x2

[thorny cipher]

why... ;-;

[brave goblet]

it's to compensate for the shop being filled with tarots

[weak relic]

Great

[gilded hull]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1474093270039658669

[hollow hinge]

Do I sell a perk for baron? My whole deck is poly glass red seal king

[sage zodiac]

What's your goal?

[hollow hinge]

Just playing for fun

Trying to just see how far I can go

[sage zodiac]

Baron would be a hard pivot. I don't think it would help you. What's your hand size with all those negatives?

[hollow hinge]

9 handsize

I'm doing flush 5s

[keen radish]

What’s this thing about every run being winnable

There’s something about that I don’t believe

[weak relic]

Abandoned deck defo one of my favorites

[shell dagger]

Nobody has found a seed that is unwinnable

So far

[hard mantle]

oh. okay

[uneven laurel]

Rental vegabond is good right?

[shell dagger]

Less good on nebula

[weak relic]

Photo and pants...

[keen radish]

So the only reason I’m losing on any run is the choices I’m making

Whether it be picking a joker, or trying to go for a certain hand?

[weak relic]

Why tho

[uneven laurel]

Ahhh good shout!!

[shell dagger]

Hard to know without full context, but probably

[wintry ice]

that's the most likely explanation

[uneven laurel]

Unfortunately I cannot choose the jokers id like 😔

[sage zodiac]

You can try selling one of your perks, but, you will still need mime, blueprint, and maybe dna,

[foggy bane]

Balatro really is a game where you need to think about every decision from every angle

[keen radish]

Are there any jokers I should unlock before trying to beat orange.

I have blueprint and brainstorm

[hollow hinge]

Oh, okay thanks

[foggy bane]

Invis probably

[wintry ice]

invis isn't that good for high stakes

[keen radish]

Oh I have that

Invisible joker

[wintry ice]

i don't think unlocks make the game that much easier

[keen radish]

I see

[sage zodiac]

It could sometimes just be bad luck

[simple jacinth]

and cruelty done

cruelty was a cakewalk honestly

fortune teller, tribe, bull

and I had tarotmancer to get the fortune teller up to like 30

and deckfix into flush

One more challenge and then I'm basically 100%

[wintry ice]

uh

idk if i can do this

actually i have 6 hands

[shell dagger]

6 hands u can

[wintry ice]

i'm probably selling parking too

well that settles it

[near blaze]

the hand is high card

[granite heron]

i was going to make a comment about how awful rental reserved parking must feel and then i noticed "6 hands"

[hard mantle]

couldnt get the income to get this run to pop off

[near blaze]

i was spadesmaxxing bwt

[hard mantle]

i found mail in rebate but it was too late and i died

[willow frost]

rip

thats a really good first card though

[keen radish]

So not every run is winnable, got it

[vestal berry]

Only because it's an imperfect information game. Sometimes you have to guess.

[sage zodiac]

It would be winnable with hindsight

[vestal berry]

Try to minimize the guesswork.

[granite heron]

yeah if you know the seed in advance and are allowed to plan out the entire run you can guarantee victory on literally any seed

but you

can't do that

that's not how card games work

[wintry ice]

do i keep gros

i have a gold seal

[willow frost]

your bio is so real

[vestal berry]

i forgot about that lol

[unreal topaz]

at 25 i would, at 15 i wouldnt

[keen radish]

But you only get 1 try on any given run

[unreal topaz]

unless you need the points but like

6 hands

you'll figure it out

[wintry ice]

brh

[willow frost]

i just wouldnt, its ante 3 and the other jokers are crazy

[sage zodiac]

You are given the game seed at the end. You can play a seeded run and try again (but it won't count for anything)

[exotic glade]

yo guys JUST unlocked certificate!!

[wintry ice]

guess we're not doing pairs this time

[ancient gyro]

we're not?

[wintry ice]

i haven't gotten a single mercury

there was a perishable todd but idk if it'd last long enough

wee would be great

[elfin bough]

Huuuh Royal Flash ?

[stark sage]

Does black hole upgrade the big 3 even if you haven't played them yet(5oak flush 5 flush house)

[wintry ice]

yeah

[stark sage]

4 fingers moment

[elfin bough]

Ohhh

[stark sage]

Ty vic

[wintry ice]

i just took a saturn

[hard mantle]

wish me luck!

[willow frost]

man what hand are we playing lol

[wintry ice]

no idea

felt like straights would be good to deal with the chip deficiency

[willow frost]

two pair's probably safer for the bus though right?

[elfin bough]

I hate the way that Cavendish only gives +3 mult :(

[wintry ice]

uh

[willow frost]

we are playing EVERY HAND

[wintry ice]

sure i guess

[willow frost]

now you just need an obelisk

[wintry ice]

i really feel like selling clever joker

but my gold seals will cover for golden

[willow frost]

golden joker cant be doing that much yeah

[gentle island]

yay +2 gold stickers

[wintry ice]

do i also take gros

i'm also taking director's there's no way i'm surviving violet vessel

[gentle island]

and second full page

[willow frost]

how bad is your chips situation

[willow frost]

nice

[wintry ice]

hey

there's an easy speculative obelisk

[granite heron]

the chips situation is crazy

[willow frost]

this cannot be real lmao

[ocean carbon]

YALL ONLY ONE MORE

[vernal pebble]

https://www.kkinstagram.com/reel/DU4Dk89j8Xk/?

[granite heron]

were you actually using flower pot or was it just there for the sticker

[strange rain]

Hola

[ebon condor]

extremely common showman L

[wintry ice]

i have 6 8s

well

[sacred pike]

OMG I DID IT!!!
Every deck done...
Crazy was that this was on the very first run for Gold stake Black too

[ancient gyro]

the chips situation is crazy

[wintry ice]

having 6 hands is that overpowered it seems

genuinely what was that

how did i not pull a single tarot

[ancient gyro]

techniques

[granite heron]

1 in 4 moment

[wintry ice]

i win

[ancient gyro]

need to wiggle it around a few times

oh

[wintry ice]

the boss is plant too

[hard mantle]

thoughts on what i do next

[wintry ice]

how does your deck look like

[ancient gyro]

it's the third round

[granite heron]

it says 52 so potentially unchanged

[ancient gyro]

so no

[hard mantle]

entirely unchanged

[wintry ice]

yeah i'd just take the voucher

maybe oops too

[hard mantle]

yeah sure im down for that

i might actually lose cause i didnt have enough score LMFAO

[ancient gyro]

roll down for mult

[hard mantle]

yeah lol, whoops

ah well, mistakes were made

[granite heron]

yeah i think i might've pressed reroll once instead of grabbing oops

[wintry ice]

true

[granite heron]

or maybe twice

[hard mantle]

ill keep that in mind for the future

[wintry ice]

idk why i said that

[ancient gyro]

huh

[granite heron]

did you skip at all were you on small blind or big blind

[brave goblet]

damn died again cause I couldn't get license online on time

[hard mantle]

small

[brave goblet]

not a great casual gold stake day

[granite heron]

small blind is like barely possible with one polychrome and probably kills you

big blind is like

[weak relic]

Could've one shotted vessel if I kinda didn't mess up discards that silly 😛

[granite heron]

straight flush or die

[compact gazelle]

psa
please do not go into the small blind with 1.5x and nothing else

[wintry ice]

i think i sell chad for this now

[weak relic]

Doesn't matter now

[granite heron]

for sure it is not a good idea

[compact gazelle]

two 4oaks also does it
good luck finding two 4oaks

[weak relic]

Baseball card my beloved

[wintry ice]

the blue seal was on the very last standard pack

[weak relic]

Straight pretty fun in abandoned deck

[wintry ice]

oh well this was easy

[granite heron]

i mean at least with straight flush you can walk in with suit fixing tarots and just discard for a straight and make it a flush

like I could see myself resorting to that if I get horrendous shops

[wintry ice]

who needs chips when you have +106 bus with no burglar

[hollow atlas]

are spectral cards like ghosts cards?

[brave goblet]

Obama seed

[wintry ice]

and they call flash card good for getting to a similar value 30% of the time

smh

this is a very good start too

[compact gazelle]

royal flush does 2k base i think
so its not entirely impossible

[wintry ice]

i can deal with this

[granite heron]

yeah I was shocked when I realized just how many more points straight flush is worth on baseline compared to every other hand a regular deck can play

Like it makes sense it's as hard to play as five of a kind after a normal amount of deck fixing

[wintry ice]

uh

[granite heron]

and also is nearly impossible to fix for the straight part without shortcut or four fingers

[exotic glade]

also @fringe nebula i unlocked certificate

[granite heron]

but the fact that straight flush is technically possible with the base deck means you hypothetically live for way too damn long with absolutely nothing by just drawing a straight flush every round

[wintry ice]

what

[alpine talon]

Guys is it normal to feel dizzy and ill after playing one game of cryptid

[wintry ice]

restarting the game saved me

[wintry ice]

might be a symptom of overstimulation

[granite heron]

how much cryptid is one game of cryptid

[wintry ice]

anyways do i take this

[ancient gyro]

sure

[alpine talon]

I got 40 holo jolly jokers and a joker than creates one negative consumable per jolly joker

I-

I don't know how I went for 2 antes without dying

[alpine talon]

Dying irl btw

Not in game

[granite heron]

So like three hours?

[autumn glen]

dont take enternal econ jokers

[alpine talon]

One

I feel so dizY

And the consumables are just as crazy

[granite heron]

how much was spent reading jokers

[alpine talon]

I genuinely don't want to play it ever again

[ancient gyro]

nonsense advice

[alpine talon]

An hour

[wintry ice]

i can deal with one

[alpine talon]

And like an hour more on using my consumables

[wintry ice]

it's not like this is endless where every slot matters

[alpine talon]

Wrong

[granite heron]

yeah um that's like taking a fucking exam worth of thinking in your leisure activity

[alpine talon]

Oh my god

You're right

I genuinely feel spent

[wintry ice]

neat

[autumn glen]

Explain

[alpine talon]

Discarding a card for 5 dollars is such a good econ ability, it's worth taking no matter the stickers on it

You don't need 5 joker slots for ante 8

[granite heron]

now like im just the right kind of neurodivergent where i can gobble up information forever as long as it's the right kind of information

but like

i don't think people usually can do that?

[wintry ice]

it was worth it

[alpine talon]

Hell no

My head hurts

I'm too weak for cryptid

What doesn't help is I picked one of the broken decks

[autumn glen]

thats not what to do list does...

[alpine talon]

Oh different joker

Yeah to do list is worse to take as an eternal but I mean it's not a big blunder

[wintry ice]

hey speaking of rebate

[ancient gyro]

here you go

[ebon condor]

if you need the econ taking one (1) eternal econ joker is usually okay

[alpine talon]

You have enough

[wintry ice]

and list is on 2 pairs again

[ancient gyro]

your welcome

[wintry ice]

no i'm vic

[ancient gyro]

your welcome

[granite heron]

i think you maybe could just approach it differently like what if you didn't read anything besides like maybe the cards in the shop and just choose to be blissfully unaware of how your choices have impacted the game

[autumn glen]

negative blueprint... these are set seed runs arent they...

[granite heron]

"oh haha that's a lot of jokers when fid that happen"

"oh hey in scoring e300 now neato

[alpine talon]

I can't... My brain thinks in balatro

[wintry ice]

probably just ecto

[ancient gyro]

here you go

[ebon condor]

cryptid isnt a mod where you remember the things tbf

[wintry ice]

bye carto

[alpine talon]

Is it

[ancient gyro]

rebate got ecto'd

[alpine talon]

Because I sold every consumables that would negatively impact my game

Maybe I was overthinking it

I had 40 per round

💔😭

Fahhh

[ebon condor]

its like mostly just a fun thing you play and get a busted run that crashes your game and then uninstall

[alpine talon]

Fair enough

[weak relic]

Been a while since I had a run with straight as main poker hand

[granite heron]

mmm... too interested to not care but not enough brain RAM to handle caring... unfortunate

[ancient gyro]

and judgment shat out an obbylicks

[alpine talon]

That's it I'm not selling another card in this mod unless it tells me to

You made me do it

[wintry ice]

ggs

[ancient gyro]

oh

[wintry ice]

???????????

[alpine talon]

I kid you not my first ever game of cryptid was a blue deck run on gold stake with a standard balatro pair run and I lost

[wintry ice]

okay now i don't know if i take parking

[alpine talon]

Where are ur chips

[wintry ice]

mercury

[alpine talon]

Fym mercury

[granite heron]

this actually does make sense, if you never find a cryptid joker you wouldn't get to start cryptiding

[alpine talon]

Bros doing a two pair run

[weary whale]

L-O-D-S OF E-M-O-N-E!

WHATS THAT SPELL?

LOADSAMONEY!

[wintry ice]

i'm leveling up pair so that i can play two pair more often before i win

[weak relic]

Wtf

[alpine talon]

Like what am I supposed to do with "creates a jolly joker per 4 dollars of sell value"

Lmao

[weak relic]

Ante 6 and round 8

[alpine talon]

What's up with jolly joker anyway

What's so funny

[weak relic]

Oh it's green stake

Oh well have it your way

[alpine talon]

That's just weird

Sure guess that works

[weary whale]

I had a Throwback for a bit and skipped a lot but got rid of him for polychrome card sharp

I still beat Ante 8 so

[ancient gyro]

here are the seeds for those runs if you still have doubts. I don't do seeded runs

[ancient gyro]

same logic applies to runner

[weak relic]

Dw it's green stake

[alpine talon]

You can't get straights much at all, that's a recipe for dying early

[wintry ice]

it's more because of diminishing returns

like if you deckfix for straights you don't need runner

[weary whale]

Yeah that too

[ancient gyro]

wdym

[calm furnace]

i declare jihad on castle haters

[rugged bloom]

Me: "Yorick"
Rick: "Yo"

[ancient gyro]

they should bring back wipeout on tv

[alpine talon]

How the HELL did you build this on a black deck

[autumn glen]

theres just no way it isnt a set seed

[ancient gyro]

build what

[alpine talon]

He must be playing all day

[ancient gyro]

seeded runs are highlighted red

[ancient gyro]

no, quite the opposite

[alpine talon]

Well

[ancient gyro]

I've been lazy lately

[alpine talon]

I'm just humbled

[white flint]

guys i used ecto twice and like i cant unlock pallete

[alpine talon]

I'm sorry for ever touching the same game as you

[ancient gyro]

since terraria update came out I've been splooging my hours on that

[autumn glen]

this is why i have shit luck because hes hogging all the luck

[ancient gyro]

but yeah pants and runner are essentially pair jokers

[white flint]

ive reduced my hand size to 5 cards

[alpine talon]

No I think he's genuinely that good

[white flint]

why didnt pallete unlock

[alpine talon]

Jolly joker?

[ancient gyro]

what you scale isn't the same as what you play for unconditional scoring

jolly can be a pair joker

[autumn glen]

being good doesn't magically grant you a build like that
thats a whole ton of luck

[white flint]

why is palette so stupid that i cant ulnlock it

[alpine talon]

You said you avoid picking up Saturns to scale the runner

[ancient gyro]

making good decisions is how you get good direction

[brave goblet]

being good comes with making money

and making money buys you great builds

[alpine talon]

To be fair you get more chances for being lucky when you are good at managing econ

[ancient gyro]

the current patch has been out for two years and I'm a thousand hours in so it's bound to be stagnant at some point

[alpine talon]

Play cryptid

[brave goblet]

Not to me, it's always fun

[ancient gyro]

econ minimizes the necessity for luck

[ancient gyro]

no.

[brave goblet]

I actually have cryptid, it was kinda funny at first but oh man it's so chaotic it's actually kinda ass

[willow frost]

its kinda fun tbh

[alpine talon]

Econ minimises the chances of not getting anything from shops

[alpine talon]

Oh

[alpine talon]

Just tried it tbh

I've so had enough of it

And I only played two games

[autumn glen]

i havent tried it but it crytid just looks like "making everytime op with no challenge"

[ancient gyro]

yeah, it goes against what the Kirby dude said earlier when he told someone to avoid eternal econ jokers which is blasphemy

[willow frost]

also its not hard to believe someone could get a good run naturally by just playing a lot

[brave goblet]

it actually is kinda difficult on that crystal stake or whatever the last one is

[white flint]

how to unlock palette atp

😭

[brave goblet]

it's not just a braindead run through

[willow frost]

like surely some of these seeds are better than others right

[alpine talon]

You should avoid eternal jimbo

[brave goblet]

but most of the difficulty is cause the shops are swamped with so much shit

[autumn glen]

he has like 10 runs like just as lucky as it

[willow frost]

ascendant? fucking hell thats impossible

[ancient gyro]

I also did a gsg about a year ago when I got into win streaking for the first time

[willow frost]

yeah, thats also because hes been playing a lot

[alpine talon]

Okay lucky means two negative blueprints, brainstorms and perkeo not whatever he had

[ancient gyro]

I have about a thousand screenshots of this game from just my black++ profile

[willow frost]

im assuming there are more that he hasnt screenshotted

[alpine talon]

How is it

[ancient gyro]

doesn't mean I get runs like that all the time

[autumn glen]

an enternal joker that doesnt help you win (especially with purple scaling) just makes no sense to take

[ancient gyro]

this is a first

[ancient gyro]

money is everything

[brave goblet]

aside from perkeo you can farm all of that with money

[alpine talon]

Fym doesn't help you sin

[calm furnace]

a run with 300+ runner is not unique or rare

[willow frost]

ok idk i just said that because of all the stakes below it lol i havent played cryptid on anything other than white stake sorry

[autumn glen]

i mean like scoring

[calm furnace]

people underestimate how consistent straights are

[willow frost]

truth

[calm furnace]

getting 3-4 straights is hard

but getting 1 straight is very easy

[alpine talon]

Money means more tarots, more vouchers, more jokers, more spectrals, more planets, and will generate more value

[brave goblet]

I pressed unlock all and went straight for the last stake, it's actually kinda crazy

[ancient gyro]

how do you find scoring

[calm furnace]

and with runner you want 1 straight

[willow frost]

hitting 20 straights in a run is less than 1 per round

[brave goblet]

you have eternal perishable rentals

cards are just randomly facedown

[alpine talon]

Money is the main goal of the game. Scoring is merely an obstacle

[alpine talon]

@ancient gyro did I cook here

[calm furnace]

when you see people with a runner with less than 200 chips its not because they are not finding straights, its because 200 is enough and they pivot to pairs

[autumn glen]

a good score build would be one chip card, one scaling mult, and 3 times mult card

[willow frost]

yeah a lot of the cryptid stakes sound so bad to play on

[alpine talon]

And how do you find them

[sage zodiac]

Nothing like antimatter not showing up until ante 35...

[ancient gyro]

that doesn't answer my question

[autumn glen]

i dont my luck is shit

[calm furnace]

if you find runner ante 1, by ante 5 you can stop playing straights

[ancient gyro]

econ management*

[alpine talon]

"oh no I don't get any good jokers with my 5 dollars per round what a shitty luck I have"

[brave goblet]

they're actually not that bad in practice, the real issue is that the shops have so much bs (wtf are cine cards and color cards) that it's next to impossible to farm for something, you just pick stuff up as you get them

[autumn glen]

ok how do i run a good econ

[ancient gyro]

i guess

[willow frost]

oh cine cards and colour cards arent cryptid lol

[brave goblet]

oh are they not lmao

[alpine talon]

Smh

[ancient gyro]

by not caring about the tags it comes with

[lyric karma]

save your money and earn interest

[brave goblet]

I think I have the all-mods-in-one pack

[lyric karma]

basically

[willow frost]

colour cards are annoying because they take up consumable slots which is stupid

[lyric karma]

dont spend the money on random shi

[alpine talon]

Pick up an econ joker, Econ voucher or collect interest

[willow frost]

i think ive played the same version as you lol

[ancient gyro]

while being early game conservative and score aware

[autumn glen]

but purple scaling is so high i need some jokers to get by

[ancient gyro]

purple scaling is generally the norm that's not vv

[willow frost]

theres a mobile apk for some cryptid version that has like 20 mods attached

[lyric karma]

yellow deck

[brave goblet]

white stake is too low* 🧠

[alpine talon]

That's why you make good decisions and make a balance.

[brave goblet]

yee that one

[lyric karma]

This too

[solemn tide]

ace cant be counted as a 11 right

[tropic widget]

wdym

[brave goblet]

wym

[lyric karma]

uh

[autumn glen]

what

[willow frost]

no they can

[solemn tide]

like ace 10 9 8

[tropic widget]

no

[ancient gyro]

aces can be 1, 11, or 14 depending on what you're looking at

[willow frost]

no they cant nvm lmao

[tropic widget]

ace technically counts as a 1

[solemn tide]

yeah

[autumn glen]

14?

[ancient gyro]

misprint tech

[inland helm]

straights with aces can only be A K Q J 10 or A 2 3 4 5

[solemn tide]

Fuck.

[inland helm]

unless u have shortcut

[brave goblet]

jimbodecimal system

[lyric karma]

shortcut my goat

[solemn tide]

Kill Jimbo.

[ancient gyro]

when displaying 14D on the misprint interface, the next card you draw will be an ace of diamonds

[rich mauve]

goatcut

[inland helm]

J is 11, Q is 12, K is 13, A is 14 in terms of counting the cards in order

[alpine talon]

When playing a hand that contains three of a kind create a holographic jolly joker

[brave goblet]

crytpid Jolly tag moment

[autumn glen]

whats with crytpid and jolly joker

[tropic widget]

is it insane to say that I dont like cryptid

[ancient gyro]

no

[inland helm]

no

having an opinion is not insane lol

[autumn glen]

valid

[brave goblet]

there's a specfiic joker type called the "jolly" type which often interacts with the normal jolly joker

[tropic widget]

its just like you start a run, and 5 minutes later you game crashes

[brave goblet]

There's like one that spawns a billion jolly jokers (the +8 kind) if you hold it long enough or something

I've beaten a number of runs on cryptid on the highest stake, it's just infuriating when you open standard packs of standard packs

and all the tarots are overwhelmed by like shitty stuff like the "wooden card" enhancement

[rich mauve]

I don't like cryptid: 🌝

I don't like cryptid: 🌚

[tropic widget]

what.

[autumn glen]

huh

[ancient gyro]

cryptid sounds like it removes the style of strategy in the game and replaces it with nonsense numbers and colors

[brave goblet]

that is basically it yeah

you can't really resource block cause there's so much stuff there's nothing to block

[autumn glen]

its looks like a cheat code, fun at first but removes all the reason to play

[rich mauve]

I read it out of context and later realized you were talking about the mod

that is the joke

[brave goblet]

it's also not a free win on the highest stake lmao

[daring perch]

the jokers of all time

[brave goblet]

wait nvm you didnt use bloodstone lmao

who invited bloodstone

[daring perch]

and never glooby

[rich mauve]

you can't get this from an egg (northenlion)

[daring perch]

black stake probably

[ancient gyro]

i did

would've died otherwise

[willow frost]

ok a lot of the things youre talking about are either other mods or the terrible ones with broken english that dont do anything lmao, your cryptid experience has been ruined

[tropic widget]

I think I would rather die than do a black stake bloodstone run

[gentle island]

sticker

[ancient gyro]

my stickering urges

[daring perch]

have you been scaling the yorick

[brave goblet]

[primal rock]

Grimbo and yorick is crazy synergy

Holy

[brave goblet]

I do like that warcraft mecha one

[ancient gyro]

here's the entire thing

[rich mauve]

not as crazy as using flower pot

[daring perch]

toxic yaoi or something

[ancient gyro]

did you say flower pot

[willow frost]

there are better versions but theyre slightly older, but if you want to look at those they are options (so you dont have to go into the mod options and manually turn everything off like i did lol)

[ancient gyro]

one sec

[somber nebula]

do i take obelisk? idk if i can play my not most played hand

[willow frost]

oh yeah that confused me

[austere prawn]

hi
im new to the game
i won like 4 runs out of freestyling it
now is there a thought process to actually win every run? Like spamming a certian hand , utilizing high card and pairs , etc etc

:)

[brave goblet]

yes there is a thought process to win every run

[cosmic sun]

this is one of my favorite minigames ngl

[daring perch]

pivot to pairs

[rich mauve]

yes

spam pairs

[willow frost]

i mean just keep playing for now and see what you find fun

[daring perch]

and get blue seals

[hollow atlas]

will balatro run on a 1.1 GHz CPU with 8 GB of Ram

[somber nebula]

requires thinking...

[cosmic sun]

I be eating so many enhancements with vampire that even I have 40 enhanced cards I'll go down to 16

[willow frost]

youre at low stakes so you dont have to worry about difficulty

[brave goblet]

doesn't matter you already got past ante 8 so you'll die soon anyway

[daring perch]

vampire my goat

[daring perch]

true

Ante 12 is coming

or the needle

[willow frost]

its not too late to pivot to baron mime and sell everything

[cosmic sun]

I like how pairs are apparently thinking when it's just the basic scoring setup they teach you day 1

[brave goblet]

realest

[somber nebula]

true, only going for ride pb and maybe obelisk

[granite heron]

i can't get over how vampire is less than half as good as its original state and it's still really strong

[daring perch]

pivot to perkeo observatory

[cosmic sun]

yet people are allergic to it

[exotic orchid]

Finally managed to get popcorn.

[cosmic sun]

crazy world we live in

[granite heron]

like looking back vampire was SO BROKEN

[brave goblet]

people just don't like losing their enh

[daring perch]

people dont like thinking

see: obelisk, campfire

[cosmic sun]

retrigger players cough

[cosmic sun]

Though the loss of glass can be detrimental

[lyric karma]

obelisk is overhated

[ancient gyro]

obb

[daring perch]

truth nuke

[brave goblet]

the best obelisk runs are the ones where you only have like 5 of high card as your timer

[ancient gyro]

viously

[granite heron]

"b-but my 2billion point 5 glass highroll hand..."

[rich mauve]

must have been the wind

[cosmic sun]

I guess vamp kinda makes it harder for glass joker too but that just means destroying glass by other means

[ancient gyro]

fr

[daring perch]

is it really an obelisk run if you’re not scrambling to win before every hand is your most played

[brave goblet]

W ASF

[ancient gyro]

well

[daring perch]

did you know glass joker only works off natural destruction and hanged man

[ancient gyro]

I've made it work several times with that creeping up

[cosmic sun]

I've been thinking of glass a lot lately but that mf does not show uo

[daring perch]

spectrals don’t work

[brave goblet]

you don't scramble, you methodically run out to power up your obelisk to the max

[willow frost]

campfire is not thinking lmao its anti-thinking

[brave goblet]

someone's not a real obelisk user

[exotic orchid]

Insanity.

[cosmic sun]

ya

[ancient gyro]

virtual

[daring perch]

thunk moment

[granite heron]

me when I forget there is more than 2 ways to destroy cards

[willow frost]

wait the jokers role is shiny wtf

[daring perch]

canio works fine with spectrals

[cosmic sun]

sometimes I'll have so much money to drop on glass joker and no glass or hang men pop up

[willow frost]

i thought they just all had nitro lmao

[cosmic sun]

the consistency of steel joker kinda mogs

imo

[white flint]

ok so wth is ts seed 😭

[ancient gyro]

meh I don't like steel

[daring perch]

steel joker is consistently decent but you could find better things

[brave goblet]

missing the sauce: purple seal

[daring perch]

?????

[daring perch]

how are you scoring here

[brave goblet]

no planet levels haver

[ancient gyro]

it's like fine but I need more money to fuel it to get the same amount of score as glass with similar econ

[willow frost]

glass prolly

[granite heron]

does the glass break sfx play when spectrals destroy a glass card? because i think it would be really funny if the joker was currently programmed to boost when the glass sfx plays

[cosmic sun]

it's cause of my experiences ngl, I always see steel joker but glass joker runs are less successful

[ancient gyro]

are they though

[daring perch]

i don’t remember how it works tbh

[foggy bane]

Yes it does

[cosmic sun]

glass joker faster scaling but more conditional breakage I guess

[daring perch]

glass joker was my last unlock

[white flint]

glass

[daring perch]

it’s like. not very useful

[cosmic sun]

And steel's requirements are pretty generous tbf

[brave goblet]

yeah you gotta make the glass cards and then break them

[daring perch]

idk maybe i just dont use enough glass

[cosmic sun]

So yeah I would say steel joker vs glass is a debate

[ancient gyro]

I take steel more than glass because of blue seals existing and with both enhancement/joker variants, I just don't look too much into worrying about glass going wrong

[white flint]

being able to make 4 glass cards then doing a flush 5 isnt that hard

[foggy bane]

Youre gonna have to replace dna eventually tho glass wont be enough in a few antes

I think

[white flint]

and i got hologram now lol

[foggy bane]

Idk i dont have a good idea of score

[foggy bane]

Well that helps ofc

[white flint]

i mean i alr score easily

[brave goblet]

instead of considering it as a way to score, consider it as an alternative way to deck fix

[plush sierra]

new ante pb

[white flint]

and im doing white stake cuz im trying to get palette

[daring perch]

true…

[hard mantle]

why is straight scaling so insane

[brave goblet]

hard to draw a straight

[ancient gyro]

because

[daring perch]

homophobia

[ancient gyro]

some boss blinds

[hard mantle]

true....

[foggy bane]

Me looking at the average sexuality in the general public

[serene forge]

me when I lie

[foggy bane]

Sorry

[granite heron]

i feel like spawning four steels into hand might be better for long-term score size but 5 glass flush five probably clears violet vessel anyway (i didn't check) so uh who cares

[granite heron]

oh you know what it plays better into? cerulean bell

[cosmic sun]

Them steels be helping a bit

[serene forge]

I love Glass Joker

[granite heron]

...eh four of a kind still probably clears

[daring perch]

vessel is 1.2 mil on gold stake

[hard mantle]

hmmmm.......

[warped cradle]

yorick my man

[hard mantle]

iiiiiiii cant decide

[daring perch]

find hanging chad

[cosmic sun]

slenderman

[hard mantle]

perhamps

[serene forge]

I don't really like steels either

[cosmic sun]

find my jokers

[serene forge]

fib

easy

[daring perch]

yorick was how i beat golden needle

[warped cradle]

i took it endless and found a brainstorm and got him to 20x mult

[serene forge]

hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby

[daring perch]

first try just found a soul

[ancient gyro]

steels just happen to work with blue seals so ill take it if it's conditions arent too harsh via rentals or what not

also steel can be perishable so do we count that

[cosmic sun]

They're aight, I just think of steel joker in packs more often and now I see more wins with steel joker

[serene forge]

maybe I need to think about that more then

[cosmic sun]

Ultimately I just want any xmult to finish

[daring perch]

i don’t use very much glass tbh

[hard mantle]

its what i wanted to pick but i wanted to ask </3

[daring perch]

dont like breaking my good cards

[cosmic sun]

Just depends if there's nothing else good in the pack

[ancient gyro]

so throw them on your low ranks

free deck fixing or free emergency scoring option

[cosmic sun]

Or if you're willing to take a chariot/justice over something that is immediately better in that pack

[granite heron]

160 x 16 x 32 (glass) is...81,920 NEVERMIND hanging chad doesn't even get you there you'd need red seal glass or another mult source

[serene forge]

then break your bad ones

it's deckfixing

[plain ermine]

i like glass builds

[hard mantle]

gros michel or buffoon pack

[plain ermine]

they’re a bit of fun

[daring perch]

its very slow deckfixing though

[serene forge]

banan

[ancient gyro]

you shouldn't realistically be plopping glass cards on face ranks when they have better alternative enhancements "most of the time"

[hard mantle]

banan

[plain ermine]

i think i’d take nana here

[daring perch]

reroll for credit card

[foggy bane]

Bananatro

[daring perch]

then find banana in the buffoon pack

[plain ermine]

why are there two tennas in this chat

[foggy bane]

The more the merrier

[plain ermine]

this is scary

[daring perch]

The family’s fighting again.

[plain ermine]

[ancient gyro]

oh well

[foggy bane]

On is depressed and the other one is jolly

[plain ermine]

glass joker is overhated

[brave goblet]

most people don't use glass joker enough to hate it

[cosmic sun]

wheres the husband spamtom

[plain ermine]

lord take all of glass joker’s suffering and give it to steel joker

[lyric karma]

ive never heard someone hating on glass joker

[ancient gyro]

well nobody talks about it since getting glass over other options comes once in a while

[plain ermine]

i’ve definitely seen it

[white flint]

im only trying to get palette

[daring perch]

glass joker is the neglected middle child

[white flint]

but ectos dont wanna show up

[cosmic sun]

glass joker just needs to show up

[hard mantle]

thoughts?

[brave goblet]

with rebate, absolutely

[daring perch]

take jt

[brave goblet]

you can pay back the rental and then some with rebate

[plain ermine]

usually that’d be bait but with rebate yeah it’s good

[daring perch]

copy rebate

[lyric karma]

Take it

[brave goblet]

that's a whole $10 per card

[granite heron]

because you bought seeing double 1997 runs ago

[late stump]

hello everyone

[plain ermine]

probably true. i use seeing double fairly often

[ancient gyro]
