[strange compass]

How many Kings do I need for naneinf

[gentle island]

0

[stone shell]

ah yes, the 8 of spades, the 8 of spades, or the 8 of honorary spades

[patent sail]

top 10 best jokers

1. flower pot

i forgot the rest of the list thanks for watching

[molten thicket]

it isn't how many kings you have in deck, it's about how many you can draw to hand

[lunar zealot]

transgendner

[molten thicket]

screenshotted, made into a speech bubble gif

[strange compass]

Okay so I can sell DNA now?

I have 7 card hand thanks to Ecto, DNA gives me 4 Kings when I copy it

[lunar zealot]

top 10 jokers:
10. Every
9. joker
8. has
7. a
6. niche
5. and
4. cant
3. be
2. compared

1. baseball card

[molten thicket]

if you want

[serene forge]

I hate Plasma Deck

[gentle island]

top 3 jokers based on consumption

1. diet cola
2. icecream
3. popcorn
4. canio
5. cavendish

[desert pebble]

i hope one day someone gets a jumbo/mega standard pack with the same cards

[tulip aurora]

You have bottom 5 opinions oat consistently

[molten thicket]

cavendish beating out gros michel is crazy

[tulip aurora]

Im just kidding everyone's entitled to their own opinion king

Queen

Idk

[lunar zealot]

'king'

[tulip aurora]

Kami can read guys

[strange compass]

So like what should I get instead of DNA now? Mime or something that will help me with the hand size issue (I have 7 card hand but I can stretch it to 11 with DNA copied 3 times)

[serene forge]

first and foremost you are on the wrong deck

[molten thicket]

mime, bean, juggler, troubadour, or econ like rebate

[gentle island]

Do I need a perkeo for ante 39

[molten thicket]

yes

i think

[stone shell]

the naneinf hunt can go for anyone

[patent sail]

probably idk

[molten thicket]

it's basically impossible to get through ante 32 without perkeo

[stone shell]

it makes it alot easier but not neccesary

[serene forge]

they're gonna need to go back in time 12 antes and get a perkeo then

[stone shell]

crimson can do silly

[molten thicket]

i think you would have to bean crimson bug/get a shit ton of juggle tags

[strange compass]

Ok listen, I was trying out this seed I found today where I can get two holographic blueprints on ante 1 first shop of the game and the only deck that can give me enough money to afford both of these at first shop is yellow deck.

[molten thicket]

or just highroll 10 nat neg beans

[strange compass]

Econ for rerolling unfavorable bosses?

[molten thicket]

econ for serpent farming and rerolling for jokers

[rich mauve]

you see a
I see an obelisk opportunity

[serene forge]

still doesn't mean this is naneinfable on non plasma

[strange compass]

I have the retcon voucher so I can reroll, when do you think I should start doing this

[serene forge]

you also need more econ

like wayyyyyyyyyyyy more

[rich mauve]

preferably 30k $

[strange compass]

I am just trying it out. Plus Ive never played a Barron build before so

[molten thicket]

its like ~100-500$ per serpent iirc

[serene forge]

it takes on average like 230 dollars to roll into a serpent each time

you don't have a mime though

and you also made steels too early

[molten thicket]

but you prob aren't getting to the serpent farming point

probably gonna die way before that

[strange compass]

Aw

[stone shell]

you have enough to attempt a burger naneinf i think

[strange compass]

I'll just see how far I go

[serene forge]

its not plasma

[stone shell]

ah

[noble shuttle]

I need emotional therapy.

[stone shell]

whats the deck doin'

[noble shuttle]

Fancy deck textures.

[strange compass]

I can still make gold kings again

[rich mauve]

anaglyph prob

wait

[strange compass]

I can make like 4 Kings at once with DNA copy

[rich mauve]

how do you write that

[zinc zephyr]

Oh okay

[rich mauve]

green goblin mask

[zinc zephyr]

THANKFULLY the only legendary joker I didn't have gold on

[molten thicket]

that's still way too little

[zinc zephyr]

we're so barack

[noble shuttle]

This is most definately my worst fail ever.

[molten thicket]

like wayyyy too little

[zinc zephyr]

All became gold in one run peak!!

[stone shell]

gold stake makes it so it's forced to give you a non-gold stickered legendary should a soul appear

[zinc zephyr]

It does ????

Actually??????????

Is this bait

Am I falling for a bait

[molten thicket]

no it isn't

actually a mechanic to help you with c++

[stone shell]

real mechanic that was added for c++' sake

[zinc zephyr]

That's insane

Does make sense tho

[safe flower]

I should have timed this damn

Definitely fast. For me.

[calm furnace]

omfg there was noway i was winning this until i found chad and familiar and it gave me a glass card and i copied it

late needle can be brutal

[ebon maple]

Thanks ig

More thanks ig

[strange compass]

Ye I died to ante 15

[signal brook]

Balatro

[atomic trout]

should I Discard?

[signal brook]

😭 🎰 🎰

[signal brook]

Yeah just discard

Commit balatrocide

[atomic trout]

Canio ate well...

[timid maple]

what do i sell for mime here? (attempting naneinf run) baron because i have showman or try to get showman later?

[atomic trout]

I finally realized that Scholar suuuuuuuuuucks

[signal brook]

This just in v1.1 buffs everything except baron mine perkeo and steel cards

[atomic trout]

Blow man

[atomic trout]

I mean Shitman

[signal brook]

Stuntman

[timid maple]

so just try to get it later since i need 1 more blueprint/brainstorm

[timid maple]

xdd

[atomic trout]

Shuntman 🤣

[timid maple]

hm yes i transition to stuntman naneinf

[signal brook]

Showman?

[timid maple]

thanks

[atomic trout]

Slowman

[signal brook]

Im slowman

[timid maple]

ohnoman

[signal brook]

Myman

[digital pewter]

hell yeah

new 4 gold stickers

[signal brook]

Cloud nine mention

[fickle mesa]

i was gonna tell you pareidolia sucks but midas mask and pareidolia is actually broken so

[digital pewter]

pareidolia is up there for one of the most situational jokers

[ebon maple]

Yeah the run turned out great

Hate myself for committing to aces though

[fickle mesa]

its very splash like

[digital pewter]

mhm

[signal brook]

Every joker is situational, its a roguelike

[ebon maple]

Not every

[fickle mesa]

hence the "most" situational

[ebon maple]

#rebate goat

#nerf rebate

[fickle mesa]

id say every joker is situational to an extent

[signal brook]

Debuff

Or low discards

[ebon maple]

I may have a different def of situational, i am not native

Mb

[fickle mesa]

you won't take a rebate in like

ante 8

[frank grove]

i mean you might if you've deck fixed enough

[digital pewter]

situational means it depends heavily or entirely on what you already have

[latent egret]

cavendish is not situational

if situational means i see in shop i buy

[signal brook]

Oops all 6

Like a lot of them

[fickle mesa]

oops does nothing to cavendish

[signal brook]

Its doubles

[fickle mesa]

cavendish may be the least situational joker

[frank grove]

if you have 9 its like 1 / 3 right?

[digital pewter]

pareidolia is super situational because you need a joker that does something with face cards, when most jokers don't directly effect face cards

[frank grove]

but getting 9 oops is not easy

[fickle mesa]

1 in 500 is not much pal

[latent egret]

1/2

[signal brook]

And yet you still get unlucky on a 1/2

[frank grove]

ohh

[fickle mesa]

what

[shell dagger]

2^10 is 1024 so 2^9 is about 1/2 ye

[fickle mesa]

its not a 1/2

[signal brook]

Could hapoen

[fickle mesa]

it is a 1/500

[latent egret]

i did have round 3 cav extinction unseeded

[signal brook]

Im talking heartstone and stuff

[frank grove]

holyyy

[digital pewter]

but yeah cavendish is a good example of a non situational joker

[fickle mesa]

you arent using bloodstone

[signal brook]

Its a chance anything could happen

[fickle mesa]

bloodstone sucks

like ass

[latent egret]

reading comprehension is at an all time low

[ebon maple]

Yeah that is what i take it as
I wont consider rebate situational then tbf

[latent egret]

just read the message i replied to

[frank grove]

this is the balatro discord after all 😭

[signal brook]

Situational

[ebon maple]

I hate bloodstone

[signal brook]

Checkered deck

[fickle mesa]

bloodstone is perhaps not situational at all in that it always sucks

[latent egret]

its so over

[ebon maple]

Either ir happens or not (jk)

[signal brook]

Its balatrover

[fickle mesa]

even on checkered deck id rather not

the only way you can justify it is if you've already been playing into heart flushes and already have an oops

and then cavendish is a 1/500 to die each round. wowy

[signal brook]

I'd say one of the least situational imo is like

Uhh

[digital pewter]

only 42 jokers left to gold stake now

[signal brook]

Arrowhead

[digital pewter]

1 legendary included

[fickle mesa]

its probably cavendish

[fickle mesa]

come on.

[digital pewter]

triboulet...

[fickle mesa]

arrowhead is like

fine

[signal brook]

50 chisps 🤤

[fickle mesa]

but if you dont need chips you wont take it

[signal brook]

Chisps 🤤

[digital pewter]

arrowhead is a lil situational because you need to be wanting chips badly, you need to be playing bigger hands and or have hanging chad, or if you're simply playing plasma it's to go for

[signal brook]

Idk maybe card sharp ish

[fickle mesa]

way more situational than like cavendish

[digital pewter]

mhm

[fickle mesa]

card sharp is a little situational but its usually fine

[signal brook]

Yeah but Cavendish is conditional as well

[edgy stone]

+250 chips on flush build is so huge

[signal brook]

You need gros muchel

[fickle mesa]

it only rly works if ur spamming pairs

[digital pewter]

we should make a tierlist of most situational to least situational jokers

[fickle mesa]

/hc

[signal brook]

Frfr

[fickle mesa]

which is usually

[shell dagger]

basically the only time you don’t take cavendish is if you’re doing chipsmax plasma or if you’re already winning

[fickle mesa]

but not always

and like if its a rental early game i may not take it

[signal brook]

You need to get lucky with a gros Michel

[digital pewter]

it works with a lot of the weaker hands, i'd say flushes and below tbh

[signal brook]

And then find it

[frank grove]

yeah but you might not want to take a michel like on ante 5 or whatever

[shell dagger]

irrelevant to the discussion

[signal brook]

By the time that all happens its probably like a6

[shell dagger]

the baseline is cavendish appears in the shop

[ancient gyro]

or if you need controllable scoring like blackboard

[edgy stone]

First time I take Cavendish and it is destroyed after 2 rounds. What did I do sth wrong

[signal brook]

LOL

[junior cave]

Just plain unlucky

[strange compass]

Chips also become a bit useless at the end

[robust lance]

Luckeoesnyeckaistuh

[digital pewter]

yeah, that's why it's a little more situational in my opinion

[signal brook]

Most situational tho

Hmm

[shell dagger]

seance

or smth

[signal brook]

Loyalty card

Most ppl dont have 6 hands so like

[edgy stone]

Obelisk

[signal brook]

Your betting that your gonna die next round

[signal brook]

A lot of people hate you

But i agree

[shell dagger]

it’s not gonna be an xmult joker

[signal brook]

Loyalty is pretty ass tho

[ancient gyro]

loyalty is a decent vv counter

[edgy stone]

And Flower Pot maybe?

[ancient gyro]

for its niche

[signal brook]

Regular joker is least situational 💯

[frank grove]

I dont think an x mult is going to be like most situational

[ancient gyro]

or an econ joker

[signal brook]

Straight chips joker

[shell dagger]

that would help ante 1 on every deck and ante 1-3 on plasma tho

[frank grove]

some of the hand specific commons are probably up there

[signal brook]

Bootstraps?

[shell dagger]

nah

[signal brook]

Wait...

Pants

[shell dagger]

ok bub

[frank grove]

what

[signal brook]

Who the hall plays a two pair

[frank grove]

you dont have to play two pair for it to work, you only need to play two pair for it to scale

[ancient gyro]

rule 10

[frank grove]

like runner is a really good chips joker, very rarely played with straights

[signal brook]

Oh yeah pants is scaling

How about walkie talkie

[ancient gyro]

good early game

[frank grove]

walkie talkie is chips and mult on two ranks pretty good

[shell dagger]

how about hanging chad 🧐🧐🧐

[ancient gyro]

how about

[signal brook]

💀

[shell dagger]

or rebate 🙄

[frank grove]

chad is at worst a chips joker

[ancient gyro]

2 dollars

[signal brook]

Idol

[shell dagger]

idol is the closest to seance that’s been said

[frank grove]

yeah

like pareidolia is probably up there too?

[shell dagger]

niche econ

[signal brook]

Oops??

[shell dagger]

made it work well more than seance

[frank grove]

yeah

[ancient gyro]

pari has enough synergy jokers to not fit under that category

[shell dagger]

there’s more oops synergies than mime synergies

[frank grove]

yeah

[signal brook]

What kind of deckfixing are we assuming here

[shell dagger]

2 lucky cards

[calm furnace]

whats with this run

[shell dagger]

also oops helps with deckfixing

[maiden peak]

Balatro now has a switch 2 edition 😭

[signal brook]

Drivers license

[floral valve]

Drop za seed

[shell dagger]

makes glass break more often and buffs hallucination

[signal brook]

Mouse compat?

[shell dagger]

no

[floral valve]

vs

[shell dagger]

unless you were talking about the above run

[maiden peak]

Good question honestly

[ancient gyro]

guarantees a few common value generators

[signal brook]

Are we just assuming best possible conditions for a joker?

[shell dagger]

no

[signal brook]

Enhancing 16 cards takes time

[shell dagger]

it’s still xmult

[signal brook]

Yeah? So is flowerpot

[shell dagger]

often you pick it up ante 8 and it’s immediately online

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[signal brook]

We know

Gtg bye

[ancient gyro]

flower pit has a few direct niches

[shell dagger]

idol is a better example than flowerpot

[ancient gyro]

idol has

a 16 ante slow start

[lyric karma]

so far you said that 16 times this week

[robust lance]

And it’s only Wednesday?

[lyric karma]

Yea

[atomic trout]

Noooo

High Card suuuuuuuuuucks

[lyric karma]

skill issue

[marsh swan]

This hurts

[atomic trout]

Hang Chad

[frank grove]

biggg blue joker

[lyric karma]

me everytime ive tried gold stake

[woven spire]

that deck is not for high card 😭

[marsh swan]

Orange stake fucking up every awesome seed

[frank grove]

you can play high card anywhere

[atomic trout]

It was for me

[floral valve]

NOOOO at least it was a good run.

[tall jetty]

Hey, i just like to specualte and want to know. what u want the most in 1.1 update? (the thing that u would be so happy to changed/be added)

[lyric karma]

New boss blind would be interesting honestly

[floral valve]

HOLD UP

[woven spire]

I’m just happy with the blue stake rework

and we know it is coming

[floral valve]

Be serious its free right now.

[nocturne current]

Its a free upgrade

But you get 2 copies of the game in total which is cool

Bc I share a switch account with my relative

[floral valve]

oh

[nocturne current]

So I can give them onw

[floral valve]

okay that’s nice

[atomic trout]

You're not wrong

High Card, Ante 12

The Anaglyph Deck has been my favorite

[lyric karma]

anaglyph is pretty fun

[woven spire]

i’m not saying anaglyph is not meant for high card

[burnt gale]

Ok, now. wow. random seed at ante 5???

[atomic trout]

My personal best, Highest Card run

[woven spire]

your deckfixing was not great for high card

[floral valve]

What the hell.

[robust lance]

Yawn yawn yawn

[woven spire]

damn

[robust lance]

Deck fix this and that when you should be fixing an actual deck

[atomic trout]

Why deck fix on high card?

[nocturne current]

Ayy its got mouse controls

[robust lance]

Like the one people walk on

[eternal spoke]

Dawg WHAT is the issue? 😭

[ember turtle]

i suck at high card deckfixing, do i just make seals and gold don't give a fuck about ranks and suit?

[frank grove]

usually for steel cards or gold cards, or queens with stm

[robust lance]

One more gold stake run

[woven spire]

white

[eternal spoke]

huh

[atomic trout]

Yeh.. red seal steel cards 🥵

[shell dagger]

just any stake

[robust lance]

Shush

[woven spire]

win in white stake

[atomic trout]

Mime 😫

[woven spire]

Wtv deck works

[robust lance]

No go gold for flexing

[eternal spoke]

oh, I gotta get one more win

[woven spire]

ye

[eternal spoke]

I'll do it in gold.

[woven spire]

fair

[eternal spoke]

Done so many already. What's one more.

[atomic trout]

Gold Stakes makes me bleed out

[robust lance]

I’ll give you blood don’t worry

[eternal spoke]

Gold ain't even the issue now man
I had to beat it with The Order twice cuz it glitched the first time
Finding the right joker was so hard again

[atomic trout]

I only still have Plasma Deck Gold Stakes won

[atomic trout]

That's why I do White Stakes

[maiden peak]

Not with real mice
Only with the joycon mouse

[eternal spoke]

I beat all other decks on gold stake before I beat plasma on orange 💀
idky I can't cope with plasmma

[maiden peak]

Also the game didn’t transfer my switch 1 save

Maybe because it’s a whole new game instead of a patch

[white flint]

Ngl I might try gold staking every deck before red staking erratic

Only 8 decks to gold stake before erratic

[keen vine]

At least it wasn't gold stake, but I really should tone down my greed.

[robust lance]

Big and greedy

[slow iris]

wtf 💔

[robust lance]

Rigged

[tall jetty]

imo thats mid i like more new jokers

[waxen dagger]

is this a bit overkill

[tall jetty]

why?

[slow iris]

...why not both?

[tall jetty]

both? both.

[woven spire]

cuz it’s ass

[patent sail]

current blue stake is ASS

[woven spire]

i’m not the only one saying it

[robust lance]

I’m fine with it

[exotic mica]

would selling baseball help the 2 stencils?

[cloud sinew]

i dont like lobotomy meta

which blue stake reinforces

[patent sail]

Its just uninspired like the old gold stake

[exotic mica]

or should i lose the crafty?

[slow iris]

sell crafty

[exotic mica]

okay

[frank grove]

Yeah blue stake change will be nice

[white flint]

Do you guys think how it may be changed

[robust lance]

Idk maybe boss blinds have a chance to be more difficult

[frank grove]

i dont think we've even been given a hint on what it is so who knows it could be anything

[robust lance]

Or some stupid thing like that

[cloud sinew]

i like the suggestion of -1 hands +1 discards

[valid bane]

S2 version is a different game???

[rich mauve]

-1 discards, -1 hand size

[robust lance]

I would never fucking play the game again

[cloud sinew]

so net negative 1 hands and net positive 2 discards rn

[frank grove]

yeah

[cloud sinew]

you have 4 discards at base there...

[frank grove]

i vibe with that

[robust lance]

I like hand money

[white flint]

Imagine black deck

[cloud sinew]

4 discards 3 hands at base would heavily punish lobotomy

[white flint]

2 hands

[cloud sinew]

relative to current meta

[rich mauve]

why don't we play

golden needle

all the time

[vale shale]

Mail in Rebate heavy

[cloud sinew]

that just isnt the case at all

[white flint]

Is golden needle a challenge or what

[cloud sinew]

you have 3x as many hands and you dont lose $1 every time you discard

[vale shale]

It's a challenge

[woven spire]

decent nerf to pairslop but it would hurt to see

[frank grove]

golden needle, but you have two extra hands and it doesnt cost you money to discard

[cloud sinew]

so not golden needle lol

[frank grove]

yeah

[cloud sinew]

stupid comparison

[frank grove]

lol

[cloud sinew]

"what if we just removed balatro" when anyone makes any suggestion at all

[frank grove]

on black deck it would be closer but like still

[vale shale]

What if we just removed balatro

[frank grove]

4 discards instead of 2 helps a TON

[vale shale]

What if we banned Lilo from the balatro discord lmk

[robust lance]

But minus one dollar

[vale shale]

Forgor stickers were banned

[desert pebble]

what a way to goldstake blue deck

the "fuck you, im gonna fix my deck in the middle of the round" run

[frank grove]

yeah the minus one dollar thing hurts but you can just start with 5 instead of 4 and then that fixes it

[tall jetty]

u think in 1.1 there will be some new gameplay mechanic or nah?

[cloud sinew]

blue stake will be reworked so probably

[vale shale]

I just wanna indulge in the newes balatro uodate and find bugs

[tall jetty]

what does it have to do with new gameplay mechanic

[vale shale]

Guys remember.

[cloud sinew]

we dont know

[frank grove]

because it might be another sticker like black, orange and gold stake perhaps which is somewhat of a new gameplay mechanic

[vale shale]

Newest update drops. And you have to start at the beginning

[frank grove]

i doubt a whole new set of consumables comes out though

[vale shale]

You HAVE to

[tall jetty]

oh damn ure right

[rancid gull]

What do you think will happen with black deck

[tall jetty]

why:(

[cloud sinew]

the same

[vale shale]

Stay as black deck.

[cosmic sun]

Late to the party as always

[cloud sinew]

i dont think thunk is going to change black deck

[frank grove]

i really hope he doesnt change black deck

[vale shale]

Black deck is a challenge deck on its own it's fine.

[cloud sinew]

i just hope that build variety is improved in 1.1

[robust lance]

Black deck wasn’t that hard (lie)

[frank grove]

its quite a lot of things to manage i would expect and would maybe clutter shop too much i would think

[white flint]

Ngl make blue stake last stake and have 1 hand 0 discards every hand costs you 5$ to play start with 1 dollar if you go bankrupt you lose

[cloud sinew]

what

[tall jetty]

wdym clutter shop

[vale shale]

I should bring back "Alright alright. 1 take gold stake run any deck. What deck we thinking bout."

[cloud sinew]

plasma

actually

[vale shale]

I sobered up playing balatro.

[frank grove]

if you added a new set of cards like tarots you would have to balance, jokers, tarot, this new consumable and planets, and on ghost spectrals. and would add a new set of packs which would make some packs harder to find

[cloud sinew]

are you asking this for us

[tall jetty]

if they rework blue stake will we need to play it again or what do u think

[cloud sinew]

or are you asking this for you

[cloud sinew]

no

[vale shale]

It's for me

[cloud sinew]

your stake progress will remain

[vale shale]

But yeah plasma time.

[tall jetty]

oh damn

[white flint]

What hand do I play with 15 minute city

[tall jetty]

so we will prob never see new consumable pack

[cloud sinew]

4oak

[frank grove]

I mean im going to c++ again once 1.1 is out because i think that'll be fun but yeah

[white flint]

Like non face or face

[cloud sinew]

faces. you have twice as many faces in deck

[frank grove]

yeah i agree i hope there are some new tarots and specs with 1.1 though

[robust lance]

Bro just wants to have a cubed symbol

[tall jetty]

oh yeahh

[atomic trout]

I just realized that the Grabber makes Black Deck stronger 😫

[white flint]

Ok ig

[frank grove]

trooo

im going to do it all on black deck i think this time

[white flint]

Bruh

I had pareidolia in last shop and now sock appears

[cloud sinew]

you dont need parei on 15 minute city

[flat warren]

Just lost on final hand because I didn’t move my debuffed stuntman to the right 😭

[cloud sinew]

you have 24 faces in deck lol

[flat warren]

I’ll never beat orange plasma

[robust lance]

If brownie points manifested into a being capable of thought:

(Notice how I didn’t say intelligent thought)

[frank grove]

I mean black deck isnt too hard, and it will be easier with an extra discard anyway (once 1.1 comes out)

[cloud sinew]

"isnt too hard" hop off twin

show me your black deck gs winrate rn

[rancid gull]

Yeah that shit hard af

[frank grove]

Im not saying its not hard, im saying its not like this impossible to win thing people make it out to be here

[cloud sinew]

@ancient gyro what's your overall winrate for black++

[ancient gyro]

I haven't checked

[robust lance]

20%, 5% error

That’s my guess

[cloud sinew]

i think it'll be 11%

[white flint]

Crazy that straight lvls up the same pace as 4oak

[rancid gull]

It feels pretty impossible sometimes lol

[vale shale]

😴

It's yorick.

[cloud sinew]

I hope the 2 have room for each other.

[random ice]

[shell dagger]

Time to get stuntman and retcon

[robust lance]

[ember turtle]

4^3 > 2^5 so photo

[ember turtle]

same

[fickle mesa]

unless i have a specific reason to

in which case i weigh which would be better on that case by case basis

[white flint]

Mail in rebate hit king 4 times in a row

Wth

[ember turtle]

unbiased rebate

do you have a lot of kings

[fickle mesa]

do u have a lot of kings

[white flint]

Im playing 15 minute city

[ember turtle]

i forgor what that is

[white flint]

A lot of face cards

[flat warren]

I’m still going to lose this.

[exotic mica]

is this a good build

[white flint]

You start with ride the bus and shortcut

[robust lance]

Copy hanging chad once

Trust

[flat warren]

Bp chad bp photo?

[fickle mesa]

friend why do you have 0 dollars 😭

[flat warren]

High card?

[fickle mesa]

thats going to be the thing that kills you here

[robust lance]

Mhm

[flat warren]

Start leveling high card up or try for flushes

[robust lance]

I ate it

[robust lance]

Three of a kinds

[willow frost]

not for long lol

[robust lance]

Avoids the two worst hands but also is easy

[white flint]

I have 27 face cards including 11 kings I think I need more

[fickle mesa]

i guess the business card does a lot here

[white flint]

13 kings now actually

[umbral coyote]

Context I’m going for crimson bean with mime baron and I die without idol. What do I sell?

[flat warren]

Yeah 9 million scored 😂

[neon mural]

This one hurts. No Luchador, no DirCut/RetCon

[willow frost]

invis

[umbral coyote]

Yeah that was what I was leaning towards

[willow frost]

cool

[umbral coyote]

👍

[neon mural]

I CLEARED IT WITH 3 SEALS LFG

[willow frost]

have you beaned already or are you doing it ante 16

[molten thicket]

shouldn't you sell gticket here

bcs mime already gives you money

[umbral coyote]

Need money to get better chance for bean and baron

[molten thicket]

oh right you need to play flush five

[umbral coyote]

Mime is giving me like 32 dollars per round bexause hand size of 7 and playing 5 cards for idol

[willow frost]

playing five golds gives more money probably

[umbral coyote]

Ticket gives like 300 per round

[willow frost]

ngl i never figured out playing flush fives, i just high carded the whole time and got money from mime

[edgy whale]

balala

[rich mauve]

bazaza

[trail pier]

i want that burnt joker so badly

[molten thicket]

hex burnt

[robust lance]

CREDIT. CARD. IN. PACK!!!!!!!

[molten thicket]

its not a bad play

[edgy whale]

open buffoon
take credit card
buy burntt

[ember turtle]

i rarely get mime, and when i do i have no access to held in hand effects

[edgy whale]

Lessss goo gambling!!!

[trail pier]

i took the immolate i dont trust my luck that much xd

[robust lance]

Loserrrrr

That was mean of me I’m sorry

[ember turtle]

i approve of your apology

please forgive em

[trail pier]

it''s okay

[edgy whale]

@ember turtle which joker r u lacking bud

[ember turtle]

cola!

[sullen aspen]

just take immolate and cry urself to sleep

❤️

[ember turtle]

burnt joker is cool... if it wasn't fucking perishable

[white flint]

guys i think i need more kings

[edgy whale]

ehh pretty strange u didn't unlock it yet...

[ember turtle]

i have it unlocked

i just don't have the golf sticker

[flat warren]

@robust lance I just got Brainstorm 😂 goated seed

[willow frost]

baseball card?

[edgy whale]

oh i see mb

[flat warren]

I’ll post when I’m done lol

[heavy heron]

bro i hate cerulean bell it ruins my special final hand

couldn’t deja :(

and if i play hands to dig i win too fast

rahhhh

[ember turtle]

i love it whenever i have a hanging man for that boss

[heavy heron]

oh wait YOURE RIGHT

I SHOULDVE TAKEN THE HANGED

but it felt stupid selling a deja for that

but holding deja steel does nothing against cerulean

[ember turtle]

i would sell it

[frank notch]

if you take smeared joker and play a combination of 7 of spades and 7 of clubs do you still unlock seeing double?

[ember turtle]

i don't believe in retriggers

[fickle mesa]

retriggers are powerful in the endgame

[ember turtle]

yeah true

if you've built for it

or have glass

[frank notch]

retriggers are mandatory for naneinf

practically

[ember turtle]

yeah but not all people are doing naneinf and the game isn't designed around it

[covert steeple]

True

[ember turtle]

i think people have said this 100 times and i'm repeating their words?

lmao

[neon mural]

Am I correct in saying that the only thing Im missing is burglar and Serpent? I need to start transitioning my deck to steel but I can do that slowly

[covert steeple]

Naneinf would be cool to get, but its not mandatory

[frank notch]

retriggers make it easier to unlock the idol and stuntman

[edgy whale]

what's the 2nd most feasible way to reach naneinf after baron-mime synergy?

[white flint]

guys i think i need more kings i cant see any in my hand

i dont think thats how local thunk wanted us to play 15 minute city

[sleek valley]

Gold stake painted deck done. I was stuck on orange for weeks and then gold went literally the next day after I got it

[frank notch]

what does rtb even do here

[ember turtle]

there's a lot of ways actually. there's observatory too where you copy planet cards to gain a lot of xmult

[white flint]

it was forced to me by the challenge

i would sell it without a 2nd thought

[woven spire]

no, you need at least 4 copy jokers

[willow frost]

this requires baron mime to help it in basically every case tbh

[woven spire]

and at least ante 25

[neon mural]

if I have 3 Barons dont I only need 2 copys? 3 triggers for each of baron/mime

[ember turtle]

not really?

[shell dagger]

You need blueprint to copy dna to beat 24 and burglar to naneinf

Excess barons won’t work

[willow frost]

doesnt naneinf with observatory require 800 planet cards

[shell dagger]

870 planets or so needed

[edgy whale]

yeah that's also cool, especially when xmult generates from ur consumable area lol, but can it reach naneinf tho? baron mime is the most capable i suppose ?

[shell dagger]

On plasma

[woven spire]

it’s not a matter of scoring with baron, it’s how many hands you can get with burglar

[shell dagger]

That’s very hard unseeded

[neon mural]

ahh I see

[willow frost]

is it possible at all

[ember turtle]

i need to recheck doc's video on naneinf

[shell dagger]

Yeah doc did it

[ember turtle]

i forgor a lot of things

[willow frost]

oh nice

[ember turtle]

there's photochad naneinf too

[shell dagger]

Actually can’t remember if that was unseeded or brainstorm mod

[ember turtle]

where you copy ankh and ectoplasm on eternal photochad

[shell dagger]

But the idea is there

[ancient gyro]

windows 11 cannot extract zip files with joker profiles appearing as an empty folder for balatrostats 🥀

[willow frost]

did he use baron mime at all or just found blueprints every round

[robust lance]

Use 7zip

[ancient gyro]

that's what I'm installing

[robust lance]

Also use console commands to change the right click menu into the larger one

I forgot what it was called

The one that shows everything

[ancient gyro]

does it support modern windows 11 ui

it didn't before iirc

[timid maple]

???? i sold my showman 10 antes ago

[desert pebble]

dont stone me please...

[willow frost]

showman bug

[robust lance]

7zip only appears in the extended menu, the the modern you have to click before getting to 7zip which o found annoying

[willow frost]

this

well that's stupid

Exactly

i love this game man

[ember turtle]

this game also loves you

[mystic bear]

this game and Cloverpit, just absolutely ABSURD comedic timing.

[rotund igloo]

I still need to play cloverpit

[robust lance]

Play peglin instead

[willow frost]

same

cloverpit might be fun but idk

[cloud sinew]

play dice a million

[robust lance]

Play everything

(The game)

[cloud sinew]

it comes out in less than an hour

[flat warren]

Fucked by the fucking PLANT

[mystic bear]

Cloverpit is awesome

[willow frost]

this looks kinda cool

god i love balatrolikes

[mystic bear]

i got myself hopeless addicted to it, my high score is e202 there

[night bridge]

Cool

[robust lance]

Saw this shit in an alien forest one time

[cloud sinew]

"balatrolikes" 🥀

[willow frost]

yep

[cloud sinew]

balatro did not invent the genre of board/card game based roguelieks

[willow frost]

no it did

trust

[mystic bear]

it didn't even invent the roguelike gamba subgenre, did it?

[robust lance]

No

[cloud sinew]

what

i dont know what subgenre youre referring to

[flat warren]

The roguelike gamba subgenre

[cloud sinew]

i can read. im asking for elaboration

[keen vine]

I guess there's a balance that must be magically mantained.

[fickle mesa]

do you mean "roguelike gambling?"

[mystic bear]

yeah

[fickle mesa]

because thats not a subgenre

[cloud sinew]

that doesnt clarify anything

[fickle mesa]

balatro is a roguelike

and it uses poker/gambling aesthetics

[flat warren]

ROGUELIKE
GAMBA
SUBGENRE

[mystic bear]

but it's also poker, which is gambling, right?

[cloud sinew]

SAYING THINGS LOUDER DOESNT MAKE THEM EASIER TO UNDERSTAND

[fickle mesa]

its not literally poker

[mystic bear]

well kind of gambling

[fickle mesa]

it uses poker mechanics

[mystic bear]

gamba adjacent i guess

[cloud sinew]

it has poker theming and gambling aesthetics

it isnt gambling

[robust lance]

what about emphasizing?

[fickle mesa]

but the game itself is abt as skill based as any other roguelike

[flat warren]

Yo anyone else getting this

[ancient gyro]

poker mechanics with non mandatory poker knowledge

[random ice]

THE GODS SMILE UPON ME

ima be honest knowing poker doesn't really help much here lol

Dude I want the gros Michel plushie but it’s kinda expensive (kinda)

[exotic mica]

okay dumb question but what happens to eternal seltzer/ turtle bean/ etc (perishables)?

[random ice]

You can't get them

im given so many 7zip options why is there two of

extract files
compress (to) and email
add to ""

[cloud sinew]

you cant get them

[cloud sinew]

add to

[exotic mica]

well yeah but what happens to the card does it stay in the joker slots?

[robust lance]

I just use extract files and manually take it to where I need

[exotic mica]

oh wait they cant be eternal?

[random ice]

It cannot exist

[exotic mica]

ohhhhh

thanks

[random ice]

You cannot find eternal food jokers

[frank grove]

yeah

[exotic mica]

okay that makes sense now

[random ice]

You also can't find Perishables of certain Scalers

Like Groker and Bus

[cosmic sun]

ough

[cloud sinew]

you also cant find perishable eternals at all anyway

[robust lance]

April fools from tricky thunk

[serene forge]

except egg

[random ice]

Egg isn't a food joker

Food jokers are Bean, Gros, Cav, Popcorn, Seltzer...

I think I'm missing one

[cloud sinew]

it is

[random ice]

Wait it is?

Cola

[mystic bear]

yipee i love dying to Vessel

[errant bolt]

"Bloodstone is bad", they said

[random ice]

You got lucky

Bloodstone has high highs but run ending lows

[mystic bear]

bloodstone without dice is bad, and then you're using two slots for one joker

and then if you run into the Head you die

[errant bolt]

Is the head the anti-heart one

[mystic bear]

yes

[errant bolt]

I got it early and it wasn't that bad

[mystic bear]

early it's beatable

try it on ante 7 when your entire engine is geared for heart flushes

glhf

[stone shell]

just find luchador fr

[errant bolt]

I think bloodstone is really really good with retriggers & baseball card

[twin lantern]

And baseball card?

Brother-

[errant bolt]

I like baseball card...

[mystic bear]

when you need four jokers to make one work

[twin lantern]

Baseball card is good with all uncommons

[twin lantern]

You only need dice

[frank grove]

I think bloodstone is good when you have trousers, castle and another uncommon and bbc !!!!!!!

[errant bolt]

Is "oops all sixes" uncommon?

[frank grove]

yes

[twin lantern]

Yes

[errant bolt]

🔥

[twin lantern]

What is it doing in that build

[frank grove]

exactly!!!

[twin lantern]

Lmao

Its temperance value

Ig

[covert steeple]

It should say when the card is hovered over, but yes, it is

[frank grove]

and 1.5x with bbc

[vivid yarrow]

I noticed the switch 2 version. I bet some people are upset that it's not an upgrade but I really love this game so I honestly don't mind it at all.

[twin lantern]

Blood stone is the most hated joker

[errant bolt]

seltzer + bloodstone goes crazy i think

[twin lantern]

Many will say its warranted

Like me

[frank grove]

what is the difference between the switch 1 and 2 versions?

[twin lantern]

One is on the switch 1

[frank grove]

cant you just play the switch 1 version on the switch 2 anyway?

[twin lantern]

Probably

Idk I dont purchase Nintendo anymore

[cosmic sun]

erm fuck you needle

[errant bolt]

I think switch 2 version has mouse mode and better fps? Saw that got announced but haven't looked at it super closely

[cosmic sun]

80k

[vivid yarrow]

Yeah. I of course kept the save.

[frank grove]

oh yeah the mouse mode thing i forgot about that

[twin lantern]

I dont think thats worth spending another $15 tho.

Its balatro why do u need higher fps?

[vivid yarrow]

It's free for people who own the switch 1 version.

[errant bolt]

could argue that the switch 2 as a whole isn't worth it, but i digress

[covert steeple]

I cant find a reason

[errant bolt]

Oh thats actually very nice

[twin lantern]

Im not getting a switch 2

[errant bolt]

More games should do that i think

[robust lance]

I’ll give you one

[twin lantern]

I dont agree with their new anti piracy measures

[errant bolt]

Me neither unless they start putting out like

Literal dream games

[twin lantern]

No,

[robust lance]

Punch out 2

[twin lantern]

Not even

[vivid yarrow]

I kinda feel bad for owning one...

[errant bolt]

New punch out that's roughly as good as wii would make me consider it...

[twin lantern]

They can release a console thats literally just a brain implant that cures depression with absolutely no consequence I won't buy a Nintendo product

[robust lance]

“I like playing games on my new console :3”
“FUCK YOU YOU SUPPORT A COMPANY’S GREED!!!”

[twin lantern]

Its a personal decision dont be

[robust lance]

Yeah that’s kinda what I wanted to say but I have brain rot

[twin lantern]

You get what you want its not like we're forming an organized boycott

[twin lantern]

Speaking without memes takes decipline and having a wife

Or husband, or partner

[robust lance]

Okay maybe not the partner part

[vivid yarrow]

Yeah and im a xenoblade fan so I kinda had to get it. I enjoy it but yeah there needs to be more games.

[shell dagger]

Isn’t that every console ever though

[twin lantern]

Ehh, yeah new ones are always introduced but its never been so extreme as to shut down your system and make it unusable

[ancient gyro]

consumerism never changes

[errant bolt]

my relationship with modern ninty has been rather love-hate over the past few years or so

[robust lance]

X react beautiful flag?

What’s that supposed to mean?

[twin lantern]

Games have been licensed for decades

[shell dagger]

It has for years

The Nintendo case is just the one that went viral for it

[cosmic sun]

'ol reliable

[shell dagger]

Not saying it’s a good thing but it’s definitely overblown

[errant bolt]

they still put out good stuff but my god they want to jump through so many hoops with the switch 2 it feels like a circus

[devout reef]

Someone thought you were being transphobic for saying “not the partner part”
