[lofty vault]

Witchcraft

[willow frost]

so about e21 from planets currently

[ivory cradle]

did u just calculate that urself or

[willow frost]

yeah

[shell dagger]

What deck are you on

[lofty vault]

My question is what's gift card doing

[willow frost]

temperance

[lofty vault]

I'm sure it's been maxed out a while ago

[ivory cradle]

i'm afraid of you

[willow frost]

im assuming plasma, in which case about e42 from planets

[shell dagger]

How r u gonna know how long they’ve been holding onto it

[ivory cradle]

no

ive been rerolling for my 8th joker for idk how lojng

i think 8 antes

[shell dagger]

It’s just 1.5^124

[grizzled robin]

why not take showman and look for a baron

[willow frost]

its not that bad lol

[ivory cradle]

i'm trying to get showman so i can dupe

[ivory cradle]

that's what im trying to do

[grizzled robin]

instead of giftcard

[lofty vault]

Then take him

[willow frost]

1.5^6 is about 11, which is about e1

[grizzled robin]

ah ok

[ivory cradle]

it's not showing up

[lofty vault]

Why haven't you found him

[grizzled robin]

good luck

[lofty vault]

Missing persons flyers?

[ivory cradle]

i think he has a restraining order on me

[lofty vault]

Uncommon joker skip

Gamble of the century

[thorn sage]

hieroglyph is good??

[willow frost]

cos he has to put on a show man

[thorn sage]

i really dont know

[lofty vault]

It's

[fringe nebula]

depends on what build you're going for

[willow frost]

wait are you serpenting yet

[lofty vault]

If you can farm a hella amount of money and scaling then yeah

[fringe nebula]

if you need a long time to setup into that build, you should take that hiero

[thorn sage]

this terrible thing

[lofty vault]

Ya know I just figured out why that's good and it took me until now for me to realize why you had dna so early

The 26 hours of no sleep is starting to take effect

[knotty zodiac]

sleep is pretty op

[ivory cradle]

im ngl i know few to nothing about nan inf i was on a quest for completionist++ when this happened

[lofty vault]

Yeah but I was cleaning until very late then relaxed with some balatro gold stakes and didn't stop until I beat it then it was already morning so I just stayed up

Nothing happened today so it was an absolute waste of time

Could've slept until noon

[atomic trout]

Who is worse? Flint or Wall?

[knotty zodiac]

flint

[lofty vault]

Depends

[atomic trout]

They both feel the same

[lofty vault]

If you have hella hand levels then flint

But like 4 turning into 2 mult isn't the end of the world

[ivory cradle]

pray for me

[atomic trout]

But with Saturn scaling and Straights against the Flint?

[lofty vault]

Get a showman and another invisible so the invisible hits the invisible

[ivory cradle]

jarvis

[thorn sage]

which joker should i take?

[knotty zodiac]

about the same late game, both about 2x the normal scoring

[thorn sage]

i remove*

[woven spire]

balala

[serene forge]

fuck bloodstone and idol and blowman and

[jagged cliff]

15 mult or 50 chips hmm

[knotty zodiac]

unless you have a lot of +chip

[stark sage]

What do I sell for invis here

[charred sierra]

sell this joker to add another mult forever!

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[jagged cliff]

Get your ass home silksong

[serene forge]

my flight isn't until saturday sorry

[jagged cliff]

Oh, alr

Then get your ass home saturday

[lofty vault]

Fed the lizard and while he ran over to the food his tail whipped the water bowl and water slashed on my face

[charred sierra]

try again

[lofty vault]

Say would you like to buy this for 6 dollars

(uncommons are 6 dollars right)

[lyric karma]

[lyric karma]

yeah

[lofty vault]

Hell yeah

[jagged cliff]

I thought Bloodstone was 7

[lyric karma]

Its 6 dolla

[lofty vault]

I mean if you want to buy it for 7 then

[terse dock]

Brainstorm isnt an always take

Cavendish is an always take

[terse dock]

Ehhh

Kinda

[lofty vault]

Yes yes I know I sold a brainstorm quite literally yesterday and won a gold stakes run because of it

[terse dock]

No its not

[keen pilot]

Went on a gold sticker hunt

[terse dock]

All of the unc suit jokers are 7

[lofty vault]

Who decided that

[keen pilot]

Astronomer is $8

[terse dock]

LocalThunk

[woven spire]

thunk did

[lofty vault]

Oh yeah

[knotty zodiac]

comfy clear

[lofty vault]

What does that do

[keen pilot]

free planets and planet packs

[lofty vault]

That's the free planets bastard right

[charred sierra]

hes contriversial

we dont talk about him

[lofty vault]

I've never used em

[terse dock]

Astronomer isnt bad

Stencil is $8

[jagged cliff]

See I was right

[ancient gyro]

stencil cost 8 bucks

[lofty vault]

Well he's stencil he's the goat

[ancient gyro]

oops cost 4

[terse dock]

Campfire is $9 for some fucking reason when all the other rares are 8 or 10

literally the only $9 joker in game

[knotty zodiac]

campfire should prob be $10

[lofty vault]

Such an odd pick for the 9 dollar joker

[charred sierra]

can we make a $10 joker and call it the best joker and its the best

[terse dock]

Naw $8

[lofty vault]

The duo should be 9 dollars

[terse dock]

it should be blue

maybe a print

[jagged cliff]

you called?

[daring perch]

the duo should be 2 dollars

[terse dock]

Actually let's brainstorm for a hit

The idea isnt invisible to me anymore

[charred sierra]

+27 mult every 3 straight flushes

[lofty vault]

22 cuz there's 2 2s

[keen pilot]

That space joker was so uncooperative early on tho..
I played around 10 hands before it upgraded one..

[daring perch]

and take up 2 joker slots

[jagged cliff]

I know a good joker!! Oh wait, nevermimed

[terse dock]

wrong $5

[daring perch]

trio should be 3 dollars

[knotty zodiac]

can picture some pretty degen rounds. love the idea

[lofty vault]

Each one gives 2x mult

[terse dock]

Invis used to be $10 but got buffed

[daring perch]

how it feels to use green joker

[lofty vault]

Showman is the rich mans invisible

[terse dock]

More like stupid man's invis

[daring perch]

what is ankh

[charred sierra]

be kinder

[lofty vault]

You buy the bastard then reroll endlessly for some random ass joker

[lyric karma]

which one is low cortisol joker

[knotty zodiac]

in reality you just get more showmen

[unborn cliff]

hologram

[terse dock]

Egyptian symbol of life

[terse dock]

Fibonacci

[ancient gyro]

rick

[daring perch]

localthunk is nerfing blue seal so that it only works on pairs

[lofty vault]

It's funny

[terse dock]

Fuck did you ankh a perishable for

[daring perch]

funny

obv

[lofty vault]

Running on fumes

[ancient gyro]

black deck isn't that bad

[rustic dock]

@dusty sphinx here’s what I have rn

This might be cooking

[daring perch]

black deck sucks bad

[terse dock]

Bro thinks hes playing Medusa

[rustic dock]

And yes IK ordering jokers

[charred sierra]

roulette joker x4 mult 1/6 for x0

[lofty vault]

As someone who completed black deck it's sucks butt

[terse dock]

It doesnt matter

[daring perch]

instead of -1 hand it should be lose at 1 hand instead of 0

[knotty zodiac]

this is an incredible buff and also i dont know how many times i would accidentally die at 1 hand

[daring perch]

they should make loyalty card econ

[lofty vault]

No the lack of econ makes it fun

[woven spire]

acrobat and dusk:

[daring perch]

the downside is you fuck up and die with 1 hand left thats why its balanced

[daring perch]

fuck em

[charred sierra]

okay fun over who wants a taco bell fry

[lofty vault]

Black decks absolutely horrid econ is what makes it enjoyable cuz you die faster and quit and play a better deck

[terse dock]

Every 10th card purchased in shop is free

[ancient gyro]

sometimes

[lofty vault]

Skill issue

[knotty zodiac]

waiting for someone to do a black deck riffraffless streak

[daring perch]

when are they inventing white deck

[woven spire]

mag dumped us with their images folder

damn

[ancient gyro]

every 6th hand adds a random seal to a random scored card

[brittle umbra]

Does the flames on the counter just means it's beating the round ?

[charred sierra]

what does this mean i just got here

[lofty vault]

I got you covered

[terse dock]

Means it could 1 tap the round

[daring perch]

black deck should start with riff raff and no money

[sleek patio]

What do you sell here? I’m playing with Lucky card red seal aces btw

[knotty zodiac]

streak- dont lose or reroll
black deck- hard deck
riffraffless- do it without riffraff, the joker that gives you free jokers

[daring perch]

sell scholar 🔥

[lofty vault]

I would have suggested not making aces

[charred sierra]

o

[daring perch]

yeah why aren’t you playing faces

[sleek patio]

Tried something different

[lofty vault]

It certainly is different

[sleek patio]

It is

[brittle umbra]

which one should I pick ?

[ancient gyro]

that's not that hard

[lofty vault]

Not good different but it is in fact different

[sleek patio]

It’s mainly because I got hologram red seal ace in a pack and I already had two blueprints and a scholar

[knotty zodiac]

gs

[sleek patio]

God forbid someone doesn’t play faces

[ancient gyro]

ik

[lofty vault]

The humble 2 and hack

[daring perch]

neither matters honestly

aura that shit

[sleek patio]

Or that

[knotty zodiac]

whats the wr on plain gsbd?

[lofty vault]

The humble 7

[ancient gyro]

7

[daring perch]

who tf is speedrunning gsbd

[knotty zodiac]

imo thats hard. ot at least high variance

[drowsy rain]

what is a gsbd

[ancient gyro]

im pretty sure brookes 7 black gs ws didn't have riff raff on any of the runs

[thorn sage]

its to sad to skip hanging chad

[daring perch]

black deck gold stake

[drowsy rain]

oh ok

[ancient gyro]

bd isn't exclusive to one deck

[daring perch]

wdym

what is bd then

[ancient gyro]

blue deck

[thorn sage]

can flush five be good?

[daring perch]

yeah it can be good. why is crafty still here tho

[ancient gyro]

so no black deck acronym

[daring perch]

bld

wait fuck

blad

[ancient gyro]

that doesn't change anything 😐

just say black

[thorn sage]

not anymore

[ancient gyro]

one more letter

[daring perch]

black deck vs black stake

[ancient gyro]

black gs

[lofty vault]

Black stake is not different

[ancient gyro]

nobody plays black stake

[tropic widget]

stencil my beloved

[daring perch]

fair

[serene forge]

bloodstone is 7

six seven

[lofty vault]

I'm robbing you

[serene forge]

im a broke ass

[lofty vault]

My rosaries and geo now

[drowsy rain]

What are we dropping

[lofty vault]

Ok then the needle

[daring perch]

my hands…

[daring perch]

now how will i spam pairs

[pale trout]

figners

[lofty vault]

Should've dodged the knight bro

[daring perch]

eternal chaos 🥀

[ivory cradle]

how far is this from naninf 😭

[woven spire]

huhh

[lofty vault]

Extremely

[wooden sluice]

naneinf is e308

so

[woven spire]

e165

[daring perch]

another e165

[ivory cradle]

this seems very not doable to me with observatory

[thorn sage]

life is good sometimes

[ivory cradle]

i might be doomed

[lofty vault]

Like an astronomical difference

[ivory cradle]

😔

[woven spire]

its definetly harder.

[ancient gyro]

you're e308 away

[daring perch]

spectred did it

[lofty vault]

I'm pretty sure you're not even a 100th of the way there

[lofty vault]

Definitely not

[daring perch]

100th is e306

[pale trout]

naneinf is 5.294118e+164 times that

[woven spire]

hes not human

[ivory cradle]

who

[woven spire]

doesnt count

[lofty vault]

Then 50th

[woven spire]

mf did nan with stuntman

[daring perch]

fair

[ivory cradle]

my jokers i guess 😭

[lofty vault]

Cuz stunt is top 10 legendarys

[daring perch]

stunt is rare

[woven spire]

wat

[lofty vault]

I should sleep more

[sour sleet]

A fruckin amazing shop so early lol

[drowsy rain]

Hot take: Chicot is a top 5 legendary

[ancient gyro]

what even is stuntman naneinf, I can't be bothered to force another balatro feed algorithm

[jagged cliff]

You know, I can see why

[brazen jolt]

damnnn

[daring perch]

sell stuntman to draw cards

[brazen jolt]

thats close

[lofty vault]

Destroy the stuntman, increase hand size, create stuntman

[ivory cradle]

wait what if juggle skip with a double tag into a serpent

[daring perch]

draw red seal steel kings

[ivory cradle]

could that be enough for a nan inf

[drowsy rain]

I was feeling bold today

[pale trout]

you pullin' in the cash

[woven spire]

if you sell stuntman, it increases the hand size, just like cryptid, but with ankhs and stuntman

[lofty vault]

How many double skips

[ivory cradle]

1... 😭

[lofty vault]

I mean it's maybe enough to survive the ante?

[woven spire]

it doesnt increase hand size*

it gives you cards

[ivory cradle]

i can def survive the ante i think

[lofty vault]

Good more time to look for gift card

[ancient gyro]

so it's another perkeo setup

[ivory cradle]

why

[keen pilot]

If you have 8/8 cards and sell stuntman, you will still draw 2 cards
Repeat that.. how many times? 200 was it?
And yeah, you get naneinf

[ivory cradle]

why gift car

d

[woven spire]

yeah

just with ankhs

[ancient gyro]

ok so nothing truly new

[woven spire]

not cryptids

[lofty vault]

Could be jimbos birthday and you need to get em a present

[fringe nebula]

someone should do merry andy naneinf instead

[woven spire]

its another way of doing it, but not very new, no

[lofty vault]

Yorik

[ancient gyro]

perkeo ankh ecto was already a thing so I'm not really interested

[thorn sage]

erratic deck is my beloved

[ancient gyro]

you could do andrew naneinf if you rly wanted to

[lofty vault]

Perkeo nan infs are meh

It's impressive but not using one is even more impressive

[drowsy rain]

There’s actually a secret tech that makes seance a good joker. What you do is you buy it, hold onto it until ante 6, then sell it for a chad

[woven spire]

easier imo

[fringe nebula]

easier

non-perkeo nan is easier

[lofty vault]

Nerd

[woven spire]

damn

[thorn sage]

sometimes you js wanna a lucky cat

[ancient gyro]

serpent naneinf can be obtained approx every 5 runs so like how hard of an entry barrier is it rly

[lofty vault]

8 ball

[thorn sage]

blueprint on hologram 9.75x or on arrowhead?

[ivory cradle]

it took me 7 antes to get a showman once

and since ive gotten 5 different ones (2 antes)

[lofty vault]

Did he give anything good

[ivory cradle]

tweaking

no hes a complete bum like usual

[lofty vault]

He's here for the party

[lofty vault]

No 8ball value

Tragic

Probably Arrowhead ngl

[thorn sage]

THATS SO SAD

[lofty vault]

Unless flush 5 is hella leveled up

[fringe nebula]

you already won the game the moment you beat ante 8

idk

[lofty vault]

But game over

[ancient gyro]

do you want an x2 or a 9.75^2

[thorn sage]

I learned I don't have to be a god every Balatro run. Just winning is good enough

[thorn sage]

Oh, I think my math isn't very good I didn't think about that

[tropic mulch]

The Obelisk is the most terrifying joker to play with and nobody can convince me otherwise

[thorn sage]

true

[ancient gyro]

meh its whatever

[thorn sage]

campfire and obelisk

campfire because its boring

[daring perch]

campfire and obelisk haters dont actually want to play the game change my mind

[tropic mulch]

I got an obelisk in ante 2 and only played 5 flush hands

Gold stake

[daring perch]

campfire isnt even that hard to pilot

[thorn sage]

still boring

obelisk is the same

[tropic mulch]

And it’s at 6x now

[slender mauve]

the boss is violet and i'm probably not scoring enough... take chad and drop banana or square, or just hold?

[tropic mulch]

And I just found Chad and photo

[daring perch]

drop rocket you fool

[fringe nebula]

nope

far from it

[slender mauve]

oh... lol

[tropic mulch]

Objection

[fringe nebula]

the most terrifying joker to play around is probably smeared joker

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/694849009411555379.png?v=1&size=48&quality=lossless

[thorn sage]

I also think photochad is boring

spare trousers my beloved

[stoic isle]

TWO PAIR!

[slender mauve]

8m, that should do it i guess... but my monies gone.

(not really)

[thorn sage]

But my past doesn't escape me.

[worthy tinsel]

Eternal smeared with AJ yes

[atomic trout]

Baaaahh

Black Deck suuuuuuuuuucks

Even on White Stakes. It is too hard

[worthy tinsel]

Nah, anything on white is easy

[atomic trout]

Losing again

[atomic trout]

True. Except black Deck

Less hand sanitizer equals death

[worthy tinsel]

Nah is still fine

[ancient gyro]

?

it's so shrimple

[worthy tinsel]

I don't like it tho

[ivory cradle]

do i take it or will it be inefficient

[idle kernel]

Smeared is fun, with right jokers obviously but still good

[azure cosmos]

white stake black deck is def easy because your econ isnt shit so you can take advantage of the 6 joker slots

[cosmic sun]

campfire and obelisk haters are compromised I will not explain

[atomic trout]

Not again!!

[cosmic sun]

🦅

[wintry ice]

smeared is kinda just

[atomic trout]

I lost

[thorn sage]

It's complex,at least for someone with only 250 hours of gameplay.

not bad

[wintry ice]

not really a factor

[idle kernel]

I wanna use campfire but what other Jokers are good for it

[wintry ice]

it's good for castle

[ancient gyro]

you can still die to a1 manacle/hook

[wintry ice]

that's what i'd use it for

[cosmic sun]

Smeared lowkenuinely a good value generator for rough gem sometimes

[azure cosmos]

not to be that guy but.... skill issue

[wintry ice]

any econ

[worthy tinsel]

Smeared is fine, can be fun sometimes

[atomic trout]

I can't beat Ante 0

[azure cosmos]

true but it still easy

[azure cosmos]

i cant beat ante -1

[idle kernel]

like cloud 9 or rocket?

[ancient gyro]

while being one of the most versatile win conditions of their scoring class

[azure cosmos]

rocket

[wintry ice]

yea

[idle kernel]

son 😭

[ancient gyro]

you can't get a reliable win streak even on white

[wintry ice]

consumable generators like vagabond are also great for it

[ancient gyro]

not past 15 anyways

[azure cosmos]

why not?

[atomic trout]

I love to see Hieroglyph on Ante 1 🤣

And lose

[ancient gyro]

I just explained it 😐

you're not immune to being starved of scoring sources

[thorn sage]

Should i remove constelation and try some steel card build?

[ancient gyro]

a1

[cosmic sun]

Besides on its own, anything that generates a consumable

[idle kernel]

whats the point of steel run if you have stuntman

[thorn sage]

good point

[cosmic sun]

In terms of other jokers you just have your basic scoring setup to help Campfire BUT

Ideally you have like 4/5 jokers or something

To keep selling jokers, rentals, etc

[wintry ice]

why not sell half joker if anything

assuming your levels are good

[thorn sage]

sad

[cosmic sun]

Steel Joker

[gentle basalt]

But it is new tech

It is not something you would expect

[thorn sage]

IT CAME

SPARE TROUSERS

[ancient gyro]

neither is Andrew naneinf and that conceptually makes sense

[idle kernel]

you want to have steels in your hand as well, Stuntman won’t be as affective for this unless you have a bunch of Cryptids.

[gentle basalt]

How?
Andrew and stuntman are the same?

[wintry ice]

it's something that's been know for like a year now

that's not even close to new

[cosmic sun]

Naw, the xmult from Steel Joker would be more tangible atp

[ancient gyro]

serpent tech without burger

essentially the second coming of christ

[cosmic sun]

Steels are only support xmult when you're desperate

Cause xmult before joker scoring

[idle kernel]

but why stop there when you can get more value from having steels in your hand, while also getting the xmult from the steel joker

[wintry ice]

the bean bug affects all hand size jokers

[cosmic sun]

You want at least 2 xmult sources at the end of the day

Steel Joker is one option, Glass Joker is another one you should think about

[gentle basalt]

Who is making these rules

[gentle basalt]

You take what you get

[cosmic sun]

I think we agree

It's more opening up the options you can get which is why some speculative picks are smart

[gentle basalt]

Except for violet vessel, you can beat bosses with just good scaling mult and chips,
1 x mult is often enough

[cosmic sun]

If you see nothing else in a tarot pack but chariot or justice then you pretty much just opened yourself up to getting steel or glass joker

If not then you are looking for anything else

[turbid smelt]

Eternal madness runs are so fire

[hybrid tendon]

balatrodle in 3

[turbid smelt]

Spoiled it bro

wtf

[plucky shuttle]

https://giphy.com/gifs/why-IDGNYvFLkJKLK

[fringe nebula]

your own fault for clicking the spoiler

🐴

[thorn sage]

thats beautiful

[versed sable]

here we go again time to spend 3 hours

[vocal sun]

fuckin finally got orange stake

got cavendish, scholar and fib by like ante 2 but had some bad luck in the middle glad it worked out

yes i did need throwback

oh wait maybe i got fib and chad early idk

[fringe nebula]

interesting build

[vocal sun]

yeah i got space joker kinda late but i had like the chips 2 pair joker

so i think it was worth it i got like 3-4 levels for full house out of it

[tropic widget]

gold stake high score :)

[thorn sage]

should i get dna? ante 4

[fringe nebula]

do you have something worth copying

like a purple seal, or red seal

[pure crow]

:)

[fringe nebula]

or blue

[atomic trout]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaargh

[thorn sage]

no

😭

[atomic trout]

[tropic widget]

I died :( couldnt find ecto and ran out of money rolling for serpent

[pure crow]

Do I replace hiker for burnt here or something else?

[atomic trout]

I love 10-4

[fringe nebula]

no, keep going

[pure crow]

Is burnt not worth it here then?

[fringe nebula]

also, put space jokers to leftmost position

[fringe nebula]

you already have enough chips i'd say

and hiker is x1.5

[pure crow]

Ohh I forgot burnt is rare

[fringe nebula]

^this btw, the +10 mult from holographic space will get multiplied

[thorn sage]

late ankh is so sad

[atomic trout]

I just found out that Hieroglyph on Ante 9 to Ante 8

You lose on Ante 8, you get the defeat screen.

Yet I won

[pure crow]

Don't I want to have less points so I can play more pairs at this stage?

[fringe nebula]

true

[pure crow]

Right now I'm 1 shotting blinds with pairs as is

[thorn sage]

should i get hanging chad?

[fringe nebula]

might as well put space jokers at rightmost position then

[pure crow]

That's true

[fringe nebula]

absolutely

[north gorge]

Do I sell baron for golden ticket? Yet to find a mime

[fringe nebula]

trading card chad glass is strong

[thorn sage]

i think it's better than blue joker right?

[ivory cradle]

why did taking another ectoplasm make my handsize go from like 5 to 2

[pure crow]

Just got an ecto from the spectral pack here, is there any reason I shouldn't take it since I'm playing pairs and my deck size is significantly reduced?

[thorn sage]

should i get photochad? i'm playing only high/pair

[fringe nebula]

first ecto -1
second ecto -2

third ecto -3

[fringe nebula]

what's your planet lebel

level

[ivory cradle]

ohh...

[deep blaze]

FINALLY BEAT ABANDONED HOLYYYYY

[fringe nebula]

yeah skip

[ivory cradle]

is the third one never worth it then

[thorn sage]

I HATE THIS GAME

MUCH

[pure crow]

Got my burnt joker anyways courtesy of ecto turning my baseball card negative :) it's also my first ecto so not a huge loss

[north gorge]

didnt check, the idol landed on 3 of spades and im going to lose now

[edgy stone]

Need help pls, got sucked at Nebula

[fringe nebula]

what stake

[edgy stone]

Gold

[turbid smelt]

Can riff raff create another riff raff

[fringe nebula]

if you have showman

[thorn sage]

Does anyone have a strategy for Erratic Deck?

i'm just playinhg

normal

[turbid smelt]

New run until I have a lot of kings

Spam new run

[fringe nebula]

imagine resetting

[turbid smelt]

Easy to start five of a kind builds for that deck

[fringe nebula]

winstreak is the way

[turbid smelt]

Create two different profiles

[lost vault]

ew

[errant plume]

lolmao

[lyric karma]

what are the odds to get an all kings deck on erratic tho

[lost vault]

kings are such a yucky rank

queens are much better

[lyric karma]

jacks are the goat wdym

[lost vault]

i didnt say they werent ?

[turbid smelt]

I usually start with like 6+ kings on that start

[fringe nebula]

unless i'm doing 3oak/4oak or flush, i just treat erratic as a normal pairslop deck

[lost vault]

anyway the true goat is 8s

trust

fibo op

[edgy stone]

We have a mathematician here

[turbid smelt]

What yall know about the all ten of spades erratic deck seed

[errant plume]

i didn't even pay attention i just hit the highest flush

[lyric karma]

imagine getting an all 9s deck on erratic and getting cloud 9 on the first shop

[lost vault]

we have a meowthmeowtician here

[lost vault]

its op

its a bug

[turbid smelt]

Not a bug

[lost vault]

it has similar bugs, such as all holographics

[lost vault]

it is

[lyric karma]

I played that one

[turbid smelt]

Just a statistical improbability

[thorn sage]

Is Vagabond good? I've never tried playing with it

[lost vault]

no, its a bug

[fringe nebula]

VERY GOOD

[lyric karma]

tried to pivot to steel card jacks

[turbid smelt]

How is it a bug

[turbid smelt]

Kills Econ

Good in pre ante 3

[lost vault]

choosing the exact same rank and suit 52 times in a row is so insanely improbably that balatro doesnt have enough possible seeds for it to happen

[foggy pond]

On mobile version i must stay X2 or other big modifier on last place?

[lost vault]

5.8e-90 btw

[fringe nebula]

still good at ante 8

[nova junco]

It has occurred to me that despite the fact that I still need to gold sticker a big majority of the jokers I already got it on all the legendaries

[turbid smelt]

I believe it’s 52!^52

[lost vault]

yeah thats basically infinitesimal

[turbid smelt]

It would be a factorial

Right

[lost vault]

no

1/52^52

[junior wedge]

Hit my first E!

[turbid smelt]

Congrats

[nova junco]

It's not a factorial

[nova junco]

HELL YEAH

[lyric karma]

Congrats pal 🥳

[junior wedge]

Thanks guys very lovely to have gotten it

[fringe nebula]

anyway, if we're talking about a REAL strategy, don't do what luke tells you

play erratic deck without resetting i'd say

[turbid smelt]

Def not

[nova junco]

Because first card being 3 of clubs doesn't eliminate the chance on the second one also being 3 of clubs so it would be 5252 not 5251

[junior wedge]

I unlocked the plasma deck now too

[nova junco]

It sounds kinda right

[turbid smelt]

No

[thorn sage]

does anyone have a strategy for green deck? i in the gold stake and i'm just playing without any strategy

[lost vault]

each rank and suit combo has a 1 in 52 chance of being chosen (tmk) and that has to happen 52 times in a row for this to be just a stroke of luck

[turbid smelt]

Nvm that makes sense

[lost vault]

but also thunk has literally stated before rhat its a bug with seed generation

[lyric karma]

i only have an advice
dont buy to the moon

[thorn sage]

ok

[nova junco]

Wait lemme think about it

[lyric karma]

it gives you no interest

[turbid smelt]

But 5x10^-90 isn’t that low

[fringe nebula]

same build, same strategy, different way to manage your econ

[lost vault]

i dont know exactly how it works but its basically with the seed algorithm or somthing

[turbid smelt]

But it’s technically possible to be a seed without a bug

[lost vault]

that is basically 1 tregentillionth

[fiery nymph]

madness is too good

[lost vault]

it is but its stupidly rare

[turbid smelt]

Just use oops all 6s and ur chances go up

[lost vault]

and balatro doesnt have enough seeds for it to happen

[lost vault]

you'd have to have a lot of oa6 to make it probable

[turbid smelt]

How many seeds does Balatro possibly have

[lost vault]

i dunno

billions

[cosmic sun]

kill 7 billion seeds

[acoustic kettle]

500 blueprints

[acoustic kettle]

A true gambler

[lost vault]

howevee many 9 digit combonations of letters, numbers, and spaces exist

[nova junco]

The chance of picking any given card out of the 52 is 1/52
Repeating that 52 times is 1/52 x 1/52 x 1/52...

So it would be 1/52^52

BUT this is the probability for ONE given card. The chance of just picking the same card 52 times is that but multiplied by 52 because there's 52 different events that "count"

So (1/52^52) x 52 which is

1/52^51

[lost vault]

i think it can do spaces

i dunno

[nova junco]

Which, yeah, it's zero

[lyric karma]

i was thinking about that number

its absurldy low

[lyric karma]

almost scary how low it is

[turbid smelt]

Déjà vu or cryptid?

[lost vault]

ok i lied but it can be less than 9 digits

[nova junco]

Probably deja vu

[lost vault]

so you have to include 8 digits, 7 digits, etc etc combos

[acoustic kettle]

Hex the campfire

[turbid smelt]

Just kill my scoring I guess

[nova junco]

Hex the riff raff

[lyric karma]

I see you capable of doing that unirocally

[lost vault]

and if im not mistaken the number of combos possible is digits^however many options exist for each digit

[tropic mulch]

Wait until you hit a trib

[lost vault]

which would be 36

10 numbers + 26 letters

[lyric karma]

9^36?

[nova junco]

Isn't it the other way around

[lost vault]

uhhh

could be

im not too sure

[nova junco]

Cus like 1000 is 10^3 not 3^10

[lost vault]

well yeah

hows rhat relevant exactly

[lyric karma]

hmmm

[fiery nymph]

madness is too good

[lyric karma]

just did the math

[nova junco]

Because 3 digits can represent 1000 numbers

[fiery nymph]

two stickers

yippeeeeee

[nova junco]

3 digits 0-9

[lyric karma]

36^9 is way smaller than 9^36

[lost vault]

woukd a 10 digit combo with 3 possibilities have 1000 combinations or 59049 combos

[acoustic kettle]

10^3 is NOT 3^10

😭

[lost vault]

oh gotcha

[lost vault]

i know

[lyric karma]

im pretty sure the calc is like srimky says

[lost vault]

he literally just said that

it didnt hit me for some reason

anyway

[nova junco]

It would be 10000000000 in base 3 which is 3^10

[lyric karma]

I have a headache

[manic talon]

Fuckkk the choices

[lost vault]

what

[nova junco]

1000 combinations is also 3 digits with 10 options not the either way around

[manic talon]

the funny or the good one

[fringe nebula]

the funny

[lost vault]

im so confuzzled now

[junior wedge]

A triboulet?

[swift totem]

Naninf attempt number 4

[lost vault]

okay o got it now

[manic talon]

im on a 1 streak anyway might as well have fun

[lost vault]

if theres 10 possibilities and 1 digit you get 10 possible combonations

[swift totem]

Trying to get my second naninf, wish me luck Jimbos

[lyric karma]

maybe you have it

[lost vault]

so its possibilities^digits

gotcha

[lyric karma]

tho, you need dna

[nova junco]

If you got 1 digit with 10 options you can have 10 combinations which is 10^1

2 digits with 10 options (up to 100) is 10^2

And so on

[nova junco]

Good luck

[tropic mulch]

Yes Triboulet

[lyric karma]

then it is 36^9?

[fiery nymph]

spacd obvious pick

🙏

[nova junco]

Idek what the original question was lol

[lost vault]

so the total number would be 36^9 + 36^8 + 36^7 + 36^6 + 36^5 + 36^4 + 36^3 + 36^2 + 36

[tropic mulch]

I like Idol over trib though just because it’s more rewarding destroying 2/3rds of your deck

[lyric karma]

amount of Possible seeds

[lost vault]

because balatro seeds can have less tjan 9 digits

[lyric karma]

9 digits

[nova junco]

That... doesn't sound right?

[lost vault]

but must have at most 9 and at least 1

[lost vault]

why not

[lyric karma]

36 options

[edgy stone]

Should I take Obelisk? I've already have lv 10 pair

[nova junco]

Amount of possible seeds in general or generated automatically

[fringe nebula]

do you have source of chips

[tropic mulch]

How much pair

[nova junco]

And also do empty digits going as zeroes

[edgy stone]

No

[manic talon]

he got me 3 levels

[fringe nebula]

obelisk won't work without chips

[lyric karma]

In general

[slender mauve]

i got one steel

[lyric karma]

why are your red assets pink

[lost vault]

in general ywah

[nova junco]

If it's up to 9 digits with 36 options (?)

Uhhh

Yeah 36^9

[fiery nymph]

thats a win in my book 😅

[lost vault]

so it would be about 100 trillion

[nova junco]

Also you have to take into account whether or not seed "5k" counts as the same as "00000005k" which I assume it doesn't

[lyric karma]

Grab brainstorm

[fringe nebula]

i feel like something is missing from this channel

i haven't seen amphymalding in awhile. the past few days has been strangely peaceful

[lost vault]

no it would be slightly more because you can have a balatro seed that is less than 9 digits

[lyric karma]

thats eerie

no ragebait

[slender mauve]

yeah, but instead of what? mime?

[lyric karma]

Instead of parking

[lost vault]

although, 36^9 is basically 100 trillion as well

[lost vault]

and 100 trillion absolutely dwarfs in comparison to 1 tregentillion

[fringe nebula]

i know right

[lost vault]

so its safe to say that the erratic 10s seed is indeed a bug

[quaint stag]

had to sell my blueprint but GOLD STAKE PLASMA IM FREE

[cosmic sun]

sacrifice 100 trillion dwarves to the aquifer

[quaint stag]

those who wee joker luckycard

[tropic mulch]

Sac the blueprint and you see red

[quaint stag]

i can gold sticker blueprint anytime because it's a guaranteed take no matter what run because it's the best joker in the game

the other 4 not so much

[fiery nymph]

it was like my 2nd gs win

[tropic mulch]

Ah fair enough

[fiery nymph]

the copy jokers are very easy

[austere current]

fumbled on the hook 🥀🥀

[nova junco]

Didn't thunk check the actual code and confirm it was a bug

[austere current]

Yo first run past ante 11 btw thank god for roffle and Balatro uni

[swift totem]

Hook is def a killer on baron runs

[lyric karma]

So i wrote "W" as the seed and got this crazy run

[upper spade]

F u n

[fiery nymph]

im almost 40 stickers

i just need to do another silly run and im good

[lyric karma]

i died because im dumb

i need someone to try out this seed

[manic talon]

the funny play worked

[fiery nymph]

sly joker ❤️‍🩹

[shell dagger]

That’s jolly

[rocky helm]

setup?

[turbid smelt]

What rarity is oa6

Uncommon right

[shell dagger]

Yes

[cosmic sun]

one of those runs

jimbo carried btw

[turbid smelt]

With the x mult u should be fine

[fringe crest]

i thought oops all 6 is abreviated to just oops

[lost vault]

yup

[knotty zodiac]

r i d e t h e b u s

[cosmic sun]

I just screenshot the hand before winning to show the jokers

[lost vault]

i just figured "thunk said so" isnt as believable as actual statistical evidence

[knotty zodiac]

your homie verdant helping out by debuffing the face cards

[lunar zealot]

I hate how it's heirophant but hieroglyph

[rocky helm]

immediate synergy

[fiery nymph]

fahhh they look the same

😭

[lost vault]

false nuke

[fiery nymph]

ik ik

still

honestly swash is kinda overrated

[lost vault]

jolly joker (top) vs sly joker (bottom)

[fiery nymph]

its mostly the gat

[lost vault]

different makeup, hat, and outfit

[fiery nymph]

and clothes

ywah

[lost vault]

theyre nothing alike

its the color cheme thats similar

[fiery nymph]

they have the same colors, the pair at the bottom

and similar joker format

so it really isnt hard to mix up

[lost vault]

every joker has that format though

aside from the jokers that sre just

art

of things

[fiery nymph]

those basic ones yeah

[true thunder]

the "each around" wording added to certain aspects of the game is funny because I thought it meant "+1 added EACH round" so i would play and by round 20 i would think "hey shouldn't my hand amount be at least 20 by now?"

[fiery nymph]

i base those off of colors

[lost vault]

aside from joekrs

[fiery nymph]

more than the hats and clothes

[lost vault]

misprint vs jimbo vs half joker must be very confusing

[true thunder]

anyone else ever had this thought?

[fickle plaza]

[fiery nymph]

this is a horrible example if ur tryna prove a point

[knotty zodiac]

i was confused about hieroglyph for the longest time as a noob. they should remove the "each round" text

[lost vault]

well im not

[true thunder]

i don't think they should tbh

[lost vault]

i honestly confuse jolly vs zany vs crazy vs droll vs mad joker a lot more than jolly vs sly

[fringe nebula]

LET'S GO GAMBLING

RAAAAAAAH

[fiery nymph]

but is it crazy for me to mistake them

[lost vault]

mainly cuz their names are so nonspecific

[lost vault]

mainly when km not lookinh at them next to their names

they do look distinct

[knotty cloud]

i am on a seeded run rn shall i drop hanging chad for sock and buskin?

[lost vault]

but their names are very nonspecific and dont correlate with the hand type they correspond to

[knotty zodiac]

i hover every time. aint nobody got time to remember 10 generic same looking jokers

[true thunder]

hell yeah if you use or plan to use facecards more

[lost vault]

ive been able to remember them over tome but i do slip up sometimes

[novel rain]

On a Knife's Edge complete

[knotty cloud]

my deck has like 50 kings

[carmine berry]

crazy nat negatives ngl
basically a straight flush every hand

[fringe nebula]

ok but why do you have the trio

[knotty zodiac]

seance goes brrr

[lost vault]

pairs - jolly, sly
3oak - zany, wily
2 pair - mad, clever
straight - crazy, devious
flush - droll, crafty

mightve mixed up crafty and clever

[fringe nebula]

bloodstone all in without dice 🗣️

go get 5 ws or go home

[knotty cloud]

should i place my blueprint on sock and buskin?

[fickle plaza]

why not?

🥶

[carmine berry]

I don't know tbh

[willow frost]

nah thats right

[fiery nymph]

yeah ik the names i just get them confused because its just random names before "joker"

[lost vault]

hell yeah

[lost vault]

yea

[fiery nymph]

i only use sly ir jolly atm

[fickle plaza]

Please put your jokers in order

[untold onyx]

you ever play a straight flush by accident on The Mouth and kill your whole run

[lost vault]

maybe....

[fiery nymph]

now that i think of it is there any jokers that support a high card?

would that be too good

oh half joker

[knotty zodiac]

stuntman

[fiery nymph]

but more direct

yk what i mean?

[knotty zodiac]

dna

[fiery nymph]

hmm yeah

[carmine berry]

technically hanging chad?

[fiery nymph]

but score wise its just half right

theres probably more

[knotty zodiac]

yeah the synergies are weaker. imo pluto should scale the same as pair or maybe even higher

[fiery nymph]

i feel like high card is already pretty good though

like its very solid

[carmine berry]

mostly for inhand effects

[fiery nymph]

yeah

[cosmic sun]

2.5x glass joker

[fiery nymph]

and the best consistency

[willow frost]

wouldnt higher than pair make pair useless

[cosmic sun]

Pair still has good synergies so no

[fickle plaza]

Sometimes I forget that I'm up against the needle and end up losing by trying to use "trash" hands to discard cards

[knotty zodiac]

pairs have way better discard control

and scoring joker synergy

[willow frost]

with what

[fiery nymph]

pairs also would work better with hand scalers too right?

[carmine berry]

the mouth too for me

[cosmic sun]

The early chips of mercury do let you live with just pair spam for ante 1

For hand scalers

The +1ers of course

[knotty zodiac]

discard control: you can play your holo 2 and still get rid of 3 other cards
joker synergy: all the "contains a pair" and "is a pair" jokers

[cosmic sun]

Also Obelisk

[fickle plaza]

Balatro's players can't read 🥀

[cosmic sun]

Imagine starting Obelisk from hc

yucky

[fickle plaza]

I always lose because I don't read the effects of the blind boss or some stupid thing like that

[cosmic sun]

Yea you just gotta beat it into yourself

[terse dock]

The order is fine here

[cosmic sun]

Also preparing for boss blinds

Not just reading but being willing to spend down

[fiery nymph]

i think high card is alright where it is

[cosmic sun]

Or buying the right thing as an emergency (not necessarily before a boss blind)

[fiery nymph]

especially for being the easiest hand to score

[knotty cloud]

am i cooked

[fickle plaza]

Maybe

[knotty cloud]

i need to get some world tarot cards

[willow frost]

for discard control im sure you could do that with high card unless you have 4 pairs which is unfortunate
for joker synergy which jokers exist other than the duo and sometimes to do list, i actually cant remember

[turbid smelt]

Sell stunt man for cavendish

On a glass card run

[knotty zodiac]

more tools:

luchador if you have a slot
reroll boss blind tag

[knotty zodiac]

if youre playing your holo 2 as hc, you're not trashing any cards that hand. that's a potential missed blue seal or gold card

[willow frost]

oh i misread that

fair

[atomic trout]

I'm an idiot...

[stuck goblet]

Guys I think I found something cool

[faint linden]

I hate Bloodstone

[swift totem]

Classic balatro combo

[stuck goblet]

vampire is kinda cool if u have the good joker

[faint linden]

He has Midas, so that works

[atomic trout]

Damn

[swift totem]

Shoutout castle for getting my baron mime online

[faint linden]

I hate Obelisk

[knotty zodiac]

obelisk is goated

[cosmic sun]

engagement bait

[fickle plaza]

[knotty zodiac]

i hate engagement bait

[cosmic sun]

I hate hospitals

[faint linden]

I actually hate that joker. It never works for me

[knotty zodiac]

hospitals hate me

[stuck goblet]

damn

[faint linden]

That and Bloodstone. If you want xMult, Cavendish, Photograph, Hologram, Constellation, Yorick, Triboulet, etc.

[slow iris]

I LOVE OBELISK

[knotty zodiac]

well yeah i pick most of these over bloodstone

[faint linden]

Even Steel, Baron, or Glass

[cosmic sun]

Obby can easily surpass all of those, consistently, if you actually wanna play the game and not just interface with flush forever

[knotty zodiac]

obelisk requires not too much planet attachment. but its v powerful otherwise

[cosmic sun]

Most people just don't know how which routes to take for Obelisk

[faint linden]

The best I've used those jokers was to feed Dagger

[cosmic sun]

I am engaging in good faith btw

[faint linden]

Yes, I fed Obelisk to a Dagger once intentionally.

I'm actually being honest

[serene forge]

cloakless crest

remove bloodstone from the game

I hate Bloodstone

[tropic widget]

shoot the moon goated

[faint linden]

Exactly. Hearts need something better

[cosmic sun]

I feed it Tribs all the time

[knotty zodiac]

balatro is a game about feeding a $70 egg to a dagger

[cosmic sun]

I let photograph die to Madness

My core principles are simply better than yours

[faint linden]

Madness + Black Stake = fun

[tropic widget]

I'd honestly prefer bloodstone if it just gave like a 1.25x mult but a guaranteed hit, thats still like 3x mult

[wintry ice]

this may be a bit big

(i have 12 jacks)

[tropic widget]

no you need space for the hit the road

[faint linden]

As would I. That would be a decent rework

[red sparrow]

W pull?

[faint linden]

W

[knotty zodiac]

way more playable
way more boring

[edgy stone]

Gold stake done! What a tough deck

[wintry ice]

true i never considered that

[tropic widget]

it'd just be worse ancient joker tbh, which it already kind of is

[faint linden]

Only way it could be better is if the seal were red @red sparrow

[calm tiger]

Update when?

[tropic widget]

tomorrow

[cosmic sun]

dec 99

[wintry ice]

NOT A FUCKING HAND MISCOUNT DEATH

[knotty zodiac]

rip

[wintry ice]

@ancient gyro this is the third time it happens

oh hey

[edgy stone]

Oh no. I havent reach naneinf

[cosmic sun]

lost my streak to that once

[tropic widget]

what does naneinf gotta do with it?

oh bean bug ig

[edgy stone]

Yeah, and nerf serpent

[red sparrow]

That would be so good

[humble gulch]

Four new stickers

[covert steeple]

How many are left?

[humble gulch]

Like, 60

Probably less

[covert steeple]

I mean, its better than me

I only have 5 white stake stickers to me name

[wintry ice]

wtf

what

[slow iris]

weeeeeeeeeeee

[humble gulch]

I mean, once you win a run on gold stake it'll be much more easier

[covert steeple]

True

[humble gulch]

I'm doing my second file

[covert steeple]

I just need to get to gold stake

[tacit stream]

wee is giving you signals looks like

[covert steeple]

I've only won 2 runs, one on red (Playstation) and one on yellow (mobile)

[wintry ice]

more rebate i guess

[humble gulch]

First file and second file

[wintry ice]

the

here win

not a single lucky hit apparently

[atomic trout]

I love burning everything! 😄

[wintry ice]

crazy

[humble gulch]

Uh...

[atomic trout]

Crap Fire is tooo strong...

[wintry ice]

i'd take pants

i already have this sticker but it's a safe way to go to ante 8 so

[humble gulch]

I refuse

[rancid gull]

your econ is actually cracked rn

[atomic trout]

Nah

It's not enough

[red sparrow]

Is that a mod that shows that like +22 under the pants or +50 under the wee joker?

[rancid gull]

yes

[wintry ice]

yeah it's called jokerdisplay

[atomic trout]

Yeah. 😄

I won the worst Stakes 😄

[wintry ice]

mfw top 10 uncommon and 3 rares

[cyan quarry]

I’M NOW JOHN BALATRO

[minor portal]

Thank goodness for the gold cards.

[humble gulch]

I can't believe I'm winning with brute force

[faint linden]

Joker's Deli gave me food poisoning

[atomic trout]

AAAAAAAAAAAGH!

I got my ass kicked.

All my money! Gone!

[stone shell]

to be fair burglar + loyalty is a decent combo

[humble gulch]

I have the most no brainer run ever

[rancid gull]

i'm blue da ba de

[stone shell]

nah it requires brain
