#

In a sense

molten thicket
#

up to a certain point

#

but yeah

cloud sinew
#

sure you can have easier runs, but you'll never really have a run where luck decided your fate more than your actions.

ebon condor
#

it would be if removing the luck didnt end up making every game boring asf

red briar
#

it's over

rancid gull
#

You playing pairs or three of a kind

#

Oh wait

#

This boss

rancid gull

Yeah thiss boss ain’t good

because why ride the bus when i can do the same with supernova, not restrict my deck, get a couple extra chips, and i mean i guess not risk mult resetting but like you're kinda dumb if you crash the bus. i guess green joker technically is worse but it would probably depend on your strength while scaling it. at the end of the day all three are realistically about equal, i would just rather have green and supernova over bus. you're acting like i'm just saying scaling jokers are bad, all i did was say rtb is my least favorite of the bunch 😭 does my reasoning not make any sense to you? curious on your thoughts about them

cosmic sun
#

fast ahhh wpm

molten thicket
cloud sinew

rancid gull
#

Supernova is countered by eye

#

Ride the bus is a flat mult

#

That works for any hand

frank grove
#

Yeah supernova having a hard counter boss sucks

red briar
#

more of this bogus

frozen tendon
#

that is a good point actually

red briar
#

i can tell there is nothing in that buffoon pack either

rancid gull
#

Supernova is amazing

gentle basalt
ebon condor
rancid gull
#

But it does have its countered

#

Everyone fears the plant

#

But with ride the bus

gentle basalt
rancid gull
#

Plant doesn’t do shit

fervent wolf
#

Full skip gold stake random seed

molten thicket
#

yeahhh i think youre kinda cooked

fervent wolf
#

What

rancid gull
#

I see a lot of people new here who fear the plant

cosmic sun
gentle basalt
rancid gull
#

Sorry I shouldn’t generalize and say everyone

#

I was just saying

viral raft
#

if high stakes had the +1 discard would be just a better game, instead of just force players play just pairs, 3oak or even two pairs

cloud sinew
# frozen tendon because why ride the bus when i can do the same with supernova, not restrict my ...

you can't do the same with supernova though.

  • supernova scales slower as it's for a specific poker hand, so if you play different hands your scaling gets spread out.
  • supernova is perishable 30% of the time
  • supernova is hard countered by Eye. you can't just play a different hand and keep the mult youve been scaling, as the scaling is specific to each poker hand
  • "risk resetting" is entirely a skill issue. ive had it reset 6 times in 1000 hours, and all but 2 were skill issues and the 2 that werent were on ante 1
red briar
#

and the run is already over

#

nothing good in the shop to save me

molten thicket
#

plant is a very minor inconvenience for the "meta" playstyle

ebon condor
#

fearing the plant is more of a playing for fun kinda mindset

red briar
#

time to reset

ebon condor
#

rather than a gs mindset

yeah gs is mainly just pair or hc sa

That’s the advantage of it

I play to do stuff like this

frozen tendon
rancid gull
#

Grimbo you can’t discard, but you can play any hand

cosmic sun
#

"I play for fun"

gentle basalt
#

But it scales up bus

maiden hollow
rancid gull
#

Ride the bus you can discard, but you have to be careful what hand you play a little bit

cosmic sun
#

Nah nah I see through it

cloud sinew
# cloud sinew yes you can

you can play faces, you just cant score them. you can play a pair of any non face rank + up to 3 different faces
you can also play aces with up to 3 unique faces

icy fable
#

Swashbuckler runs are soo fun man

rancid gull

And supernova is retroactive

should i brainstorm hanging chad or photograph?

how do i even deckfix for spare trousersx

cloud sinew
frank grove
#

you dont need to

rancid gull
#

Two pairs are easy to make

#

And it’s a fast scaler

red briar
#

but i almost died because i didn't have two pairs

maiden hollow
#

And the first step is play isaac

frank grove
#

you dont always need to play two pair

maiden hollow
frank grove
#

play two pair to scale it, play something else to score usually

rotund igloo
#

Honestly getting the discard voucher is probably enough for two pairs

viral raft
frank notch
#

joker and son

cloud sinew
#

trousers is runner but for mult, it scales from a specific hand but it doesnt require that hand for it to contribute to scoring

frozen tendon
red briar
#

i don't have anything else to score with

rotund igloo
#

Sounds like you need blue joker

#

or some other chips joker

viral raft
rancid gull

#

Square and runner are close imo

frank grove
#

wheres castle

hasty harness
#

castle šŸ’€

red briar
gentle basalt
viral raft
worthy tinsel
frank grove
#

castle is easily better than square most of the time yeah

#

good

hasty harness
cosmic sun
#

ehhh worse than square

viral raft
#

Castle is just OK

cosmic sun
#

maybe somewhere above bull perchance

frank grove
#

okay ... in most of my runs castle gets to like 350

gentle basalt
red briar
#

i can't come across any of those cards

viral raft
#

i'd rather one hundred times Square or runner

red briar
#

just fodder like more +mult

cosmic sun
#

Not saying Castle is something terrible you should never pick up btw

maiden hollow
rotund igloo
#

Square and runner are better. Caslte is not bad it's just not as good as those two

versed sable
cosmic sun
#

if you need chips then you need chips don't be foolish guys

gentle basalt
#

How are you not able to discard at least 5 of one suit....

viral raft
maiden hollow
gentle basalt
frank grove
#

Yeah and you can deck fix for castle so it can hit something you have a lot of more often

viral raft
red briar
#

ante 5 and still no xmult

hasty harness
red briar
#

walking into another inevitable loss i guess

hasty harness
#

and its easier to scale early

worthy tinsel
cosmic sun
#

Worse than Square but overhated

cloud sinew
cosmic sun
#

Castle moment

frank grove
#

square is easy to scale constantly the whole run i guess

gentle basalt
#

A discard can be worth upto 15, and usually at least 9

worthy tinsel
gentle basalt
#

Square hands are always 4

rancid gull
#

It’s good to have humility

#

But you need to have some love for yourself

hasty harness

i prefer squares consistency

really

wintry ice

you're realistically never whiffing your suits that often

red briar
#

i'm still only barely scraping by the blinds

true thunder
#

is it me or does the scaling for antes 9+ just jump up to obscene levels

frank grove
#

and castle gets much better as you have it

gentle basalt
true thunder
#

actually it's more like ante 11

gentle basalt
#

I.e. watch better people

worthy tinsel
#

Yes

frank grove
#

cause you can start to work around it and deck fix for it if you want

glad smelt
#

Do I even take blueprint?(Challenge, 4 joker slots)

gentle basalt
#

And understand the game

cloud sinew
worthy tinsel
#

Welcome to endless

cloud sinew
#

youre not helping by saying "do something so that you win" "understand the game"

cosmic sun
#

Square is just more consistent cause 4 card hands aren't hard to do and Castle's suits can also just get debuffed

red briar
rancid gull
#

What stakes are you on

red briar
#

250 of those losing in the first 3 antes

wintry ice
#

"hi guys how do i win"
"just win cuh it ain't that deep"

red briar
gentle basalt
cosmic sun
#

Sure the ceiling on castle is higher but that never matters in these discussions

gentle basalt
#

Which helps you understand the game

cloud sinew
#

your initial advice was meaningless

red briar
#

aaan danother run lost

We gotta have a growth mindset

#

Buddy please

red briar

even at like ante 4-5 i still dont have a plan

You gotta have some favorites

cloud sinew

i can't because i'm so unlucky when it comes to roguelikes

i never get what i plan on going fore

I don’t think you’re unlucky man

red briar
#

i think i am

rancid gull
#

All your runs are winnable

wintry ice

my advice is take what you can get

rancid gull
#

Give me a seed and I’ll win it on white stake

Get your cap to 25

Which is how you get "rtb bad" comments

rancid gull

Get your 5 bucks of interest

red briar
#

every seed i load into i can't win

Arcana packs

cloud sinew
red briar
#

even when i open packs i don't get anything useful in them

viral ledge
#

bad joker idea: lockpick
doing the unlock requirements for a joker summons a negative version of that joker (i.e discarding a royal flush spawns a negative brainstorm, playing an all gold card hand spawns a negative golden ticket ect.)

rancid gull
#

Everything is useful

gentle basalt

@red briar is clearly ragebaiting, just ignore

Take runner, scaling chips already

wintry ice

runner abstract should get you past earlygame easily

red briar
#

i won't be able to make straights though =w= guaranteed

viral raft
cloud sinew
wintry ice
#

you just need to draw like 1 per round

rose niche
#

I did a thing

wintry ice
#

and then you can forgo them

viral raft
cloud sinew
#

runner is scaling chips but doesnt require you to keep drawing straights to get the chips youve already scaled

#

abstract is unconditional +mult

red briar
#

sigh

echo sphinx
cloud sinew
#

you have a +6 abstract and one of the best +chips for this stage of the game

rose niche
red briar
#

i'll still lose

#

i'll just take a break and come back to it later

wintry ice
#

well where's the harm in trying

cloud sinew
# red briar i'll still lose

instead of expecting yourself to lose you should try and pay attention to what you think caused you to lose in the past, and see if there's something different you could do in future

this isn't a game where you can spawn the exact build you want

you said you have bad luck with roguelikes

Exactly

cloud sinew

but i think you just dont know how to play roguelikes /gen

#

you shouldnt be trying to force builds, you can't really be that picky with what you take

echo sphinx
#

guys idt we need to dogpile that hard

cloud sinew
#

you take the best option out of what is offered to you

ante 3? you had runner abstract

what was your money at

lol scoring

perhaps I can get a glass proc for the last hand

that should have let you go without spending anything until the ante 2 boss on gold stake

where did you spend your money

red briar

apparently not being able to find straights is a me issue

cloud sinew
red briar
cloud sinew

they should be easy to find once per round with 3 discards

cloud sinew

you shouldnt really be opening any packs apart from buffoons until $20+

red briar

to get levels? am i missing something

did you not take any of the jokers from the buffoons for abstract?

cloud sinew

#

how??

#

you need 4 card hands to scale it

pair

cloud sinew
wintry ice
#

it's chips and +mult for 0 cost

cloud sinew
#

just play pair with 2 throwaway hands

#

Orange Stake Erratic Deck run last night

cloud sinew
#

also it's +10 mult right now, even if it was any other joker it'd be worth

wintry ice
frank grove
#

you only need to play 4 cards they dont have to score, so pair, hc, 3oak, 2pair all work

wintry ice
#

the game usually specifies it if it's the case

frank grove
#

and 4oak

red briar
#

huff

#

so what am i to do

cloud sinew
#

TAKE

#

SQUARE

red briar
#

just play pairs with 2 extra cards?

#

i already TOOK square that much was obvious

#

primal heath
cloud sinew
wintry ice
#

you can also take the buffoon pack

#

actually

#

nvm you can't affoard it

cloud sinew
#

i wouldnt

frank grove
#

yeah i wouldnt either

cloud sinew
#

square on its own gets them through a1

#

and quite easily through a2

red briar
#

so how long should i wait until buying anything?

frank grove
#

Probably after ante 2 boss on white

cloud sinew
wintry ice
#

you can just buy scaling +mult jokers, buffoon packs and econ jokers for now

echo sphinx
wintry ice
#

getting any consistent xmult is good too

frank grove
#

but if you see anything thats worth picking up then of course grab em

red briar
#

i don't see how square is that good though

#

surely +4 chips every hand won't scale fast enough

cloud sinew
frank grove
#

right now its mult to help you one shot the next two or three blinds

#

and also scaling chips

wintry ice
cloud sinew
narrow scroll
wintry ice
#

though that's on high stakes where the higher scoring limit lets you play more hands

primal heath
cloud sinew
tardy vigil
#

Straight son or Flush daughter?

wintry ice
#

but that also means you don't need as many chips

red briar
narrow scroll
frank grove
#

yeah holo does make it a little harder to scale but its still good

cloud sinew
#

it just needs to let you live for longer

frank grove
#

of course if you have good planet scaling and outscale the square enough you can sell it for something else later

red briar
#

alright i'm at ante 2 boss blind

cloud sinew
#

how did you get there so fast

#

did you skip at all

red briar
cloud sinew
#

and did you just ignore the shop completely?

red briar
#

no?

cosmic sun
#

General rule with hand scalers like Square @red briar If you can play worse hands like high card to scale it (because even pairs sometimes win too fast) then you can scale it more.

red briar
#

i looked in the shop but didn't really buy anything because i didn't see anything of use

cosmic sun
#

Something you probably didn't know.

Take duo because it gives 2x mult if you have a pair in your played hand and pairs are the go-to with square joker

or convert 3 into clubs

cloud sinew
primal heath
#

you should take them

red briar
#

eh

frank grove
#

stone cards are decent with square

red briar
#

what's done is done

#

it's not exactly a deciding factor in the game

narrow scroll
narrow scroll
#

can be though

red briar
#

is it worth taking castle this late in the game?

don't discount anything automatically

cosmic sun
#

Have you ever thought about that

red briar
cosmic sun
#

Sometimes you gotta hit yourself with that eternal student mindset gang

red briar
#

i've had similar bad decisions in the past and still miraculously won from them

cloud sinew
red briar
#

by that logic, i guess i lose?

primal heath
red briar
cloud sinew
#

if you don't play as best as you possibly can, you will lose runs eventually because of it

Chariot could be worth considering for a possible Steel Joker

#

28 - 3

hasty harness
#

no way

devout reef
#

You can feasibly get castle rolling with 4 discards but you already have a square so it’s not really necessary

I didn't want it to be straight up more powerful than golden but I suppose it's fine since it isnt constant

cloud sinew
stark karma
#

yup

red briar
#

check the buffoon pack ?

primal heath
cloud sinew
frank grove
#

Yeah

red briar
#

is half joker worth taking here

narrow scroll
cloud sinew
stoic isle
#

no

devout reef
#

lol

primal heath
primal heath
#

but dont skip

cloud sinew
frank grove
#

Yeah i would take half

primal heath
red briar
cloud sinew
#

you can't scale square while also scoring with half, but that's fine. winning is better than maximising scaling all the time

devout reef
#

I feel like swash is also not bad here

cloud sinew
#

swash is also an okay take, but i'd take half personally

red briar
#

should i start checking celestial packs for pairs too

devout reef
#

It’s less mult but less constaints

frank notch
#

i wish i didnt edition all of my jokers

devout reef
#

But conditional scoring is always a plus

frank grove
red briar
#

and if not pairs i can skip right?

#

i don't want high card to get too high

frank grove
#

i would scale something like two pair or 3oak or 4oak

cloud sinew
frank grove
#

or if you have something better in fool then yeah dont do anything

red briar
stark karma
#

another joker idea:

Wanted Poster
Uncommon
Each [rank] of [suit] gives $5 and self destructs when played
card changes at every round

cloud sinew
# red briar what do you mean by this

fool copies your last used planet/tarot card. if the card you last used is worth keeping as your fool target over what you will get now then you shouldnt use it

frank grove
red briar
#

i don't have a fool at the moment

stark karma
cloud sinew
stark karma
#

I feel like it's moderately powerful

cloud sinew
#

your fool target stays even if you dont have a fool

#

the next time you get a fool it WILL be the last tarot/planet you used

red briar
#

i can't remember what the last tarot i used was so

cloud sinew
stark karma
#

I think early on it's probably very hard to find and play a specific card

primal heath
frank grove
#

you can check by going collection, tarots and hovering over the fool

stark karma
devout reef
stark karma
#

if it lands on a card you want to have in your deck you're screwed a little

red briar
#

i didn't have anything

red briar
#

i'll just move onto the next blind

echo sphinx
stark karma
#

which I guess it provides

cloud sinew
cloud sinew
#

it's 1 card in deck per round at base

vestal copper
#

it seems mid ngl

stark karma
#

it does get better over time tho

narrow scroll
#

upgrading 3oak might also be okay too
protection against that one boss blind that doesn't allow you to play repeat hands

devout reef
#

What the

shell dagger
vestal copper
#

why

stark karma
#

okay cool :)

#

I'm glad we like it

rancid gull
#

Hey guys

devout reef
#

How many tarot/planet packs have you opened

vestal copper
#

thats a good concept tho that is us true

echo sphinx
cloud sinew
# red briar nope

you skipped the arcana pack when you literally hadnt used a single tarot/planet yet. theres almost no reason to do that without red card

red briar
#

no clue

cloud sinew
primal heath
rancid gull
#

This is a really good setup

vestal copper
#

cryptid a king

red briar
#

did that

#

open another celestial?

stark karma
#

I wonder how crazy a joker that makes all xmult effects happen last would be

rancid gull
#

Keep scaling your square

stark karma
#

that's stupid lol

echo sphinx
stark karma
#

yeahhhh

#

also idk how a photo chad would function

#

would it get retriggered? hard to say

cloud sinew
vestal copper
#

8x mult stored would be kind nuts

stark karma
#

seems like a poor idea

#

yeah lmao

cloud sinew
stark karma
#

and then glass/steel

#

ah I see

narrow scroll
echo sphinx
stark karma
#

I suppose

#

feels like it has little detriment

red briar
#

arcana?

stark karma
#

other than taking a slot

echo sphinx
#

id say the biggest strength is that it nulls Acorn boss blind

cloud sinew
shell dagger
#

New joker that makes +chips happen last (uncommon) egg

narrow scroll
stark karma
#

lmaoo

vestal copper
#

i mean yeah scaling problems

cloud sinew
stark karma
#

yeah lol

cloud sinew
#

acorn is the easiest showdown blind

stark karma
#

fs

cloud sinew
#

arguably the 2nd easiest boss in the game

NOOOOOOZIALDKAOO19RUFJDK1

red briar
#

anything useful in here?

rancid gull
#

Glass and mult cards

cloud sinew
stark karma
#

maybe something more like on card effects trigger last is more interesting?

narrow scroll

dire sage
#

GIVE ME THE NEGATIVE ETERNAL BRAINSTORM

rancid gull
#

Glass is always a nice touch to have

cloud sinew
narrow scroll
vestal copper
#

serpent is free that is true

#

useful to the player, even

stark karma
#

not always

#

some builds suffer

red briar
#

do i need to use the glass ace to get the card

stark karma
#

bad ones lol

cloud sinew
echo sphinx
cloud sinew
red briar
#

like

rancid gull
#

No you don’t need to use glass

stark karma
red briar
#

if i have glass joker locked

rancid gull
#

You just have to have one in your deck for it to appear

stark karma
#

regardless

red briar
#

huh

stark karma
#

so it does hinder value generators

#

like rebate

cloud sinew
#

wrong reply

rancid gull
#

Oh fugg

hasty harness
#

ante 39 potential?

#

nat negative dna

#

and i got a bean bug

stark karma
rancid gull
#

Potentially yeah

echo sphinx
narrow scroll
#

glass joker runs are super fun
you should unlock it

cloud sinew
stark karma
cloud sinew
#

because it's -3 cards seen in deck

stark karma
#

why didnt you bean bug again here?

devout reef
stark karma
#

I suppose it's a bit scary

hasty harness
rancid gull
#

I’ve never been scared of a serpent tbh

hasty harness

Well on black deck ++ it’s been harder for me to get stuff off thr ground

cloud sinew

but it might come back around

I’m speaking from recency

rancid gull

I love gold cards!!!!!

All of the enchantments are really good

yeah

ancient gyro

and less agnostic open joker space

devout reef
#

Yeah I guess that’s true

lyric wave
#

bonus cards are a bit lacking and mult cards are too past earlygame but

#

the others are pretty fuckin good

red briar
#

good thing i took devil regardless

frank grove

I love campfire

cloud sinew

I so rarely ever run photograph anyways

red briar

should i take photograph or is there no point

ancient gyro
echo sphinx
rancid gull
#

Sorry

#

Most of them

lyric wave
rancid gull
#

I think stones are fine

#

Kinda

ancient gyro
#

well stone is good

lyric wave
#

stone has value

stark karma
#

it's funny there's no robot joker

echo sphinx
#

stone advantage is that it doesnt get bricked by boss mechanics

lyric wave
#

wild is just... eh... at best

rancid gull
#

I actually hate wild cards

echo sphinx
#

so its the ol reliable

rancid gull
#

They’re never worth taking over other enhancements

#

I’d rather have a suit changer than a wild

red briar
cloud sinew
ancient gyro
#

outside of some non meta specific builds and card tracking

lyric wave
#

wild cards get bricked so hard by bosses

cloud sinew
primal heath
echo sphinx
#

unless its like
whatever the "played before in the ante" blind boss it is

stark karma
vestal copper
#

wilds are bad and then you find an ancient

red briar
vestal copper
#

and then 🪟

cloud sinew
red briar
#

and x2 mult would be nice

#

at the end i'm not sure

rancid gull
#

To make wilds good!!!

#

Yayuhhhh

lyric wave
red briar
#

i would personally take it but that's probably wrong

vestal copper
#

yeah

primal heath
#

so it activates before half joker

#

and the holo

vestal copper
#

buff lovers 😭

echo sphinx
lyric wave
#

I'm pretty sure a wild card buff was confirmed

cloud sinew
vestal copper
#

i usually literally never care about suits ngl

cloud sinew
rancid gull
#

It has been

#

I’m excited to see it

#

But right now

#

Wilds are ass

cloud sinew
#

it's not the worst enhancement anymore

vestal copper
#

why dont lovers affect 2 cards

red briar
#

well then i'm entirely not sure about my scoring

lyric wave
#

likely making it so that boss blinds don't fuck with it anymore

red briar
#

because it feels like it's too slow but i have no clue in the end

lyric wave
echo sphinx
rancid gull
#

I don’t know if it’d be good if it was two cards

frank grove
#

i think its been confirmed that buffed lovers still wont affect 2 it will only affect 1 at a time

rancid gull
#

Foe lovers

ancient gyro
lyric wave
ancient gyro
#

also two wilds don't make the enhancement much better

lyric wave
#

oh

#

you edited it

#

yeah we have no idea what the actual buff is

cloud sinew
echo sphinx
#

oh

rancid gull
#

Yay, speculative flushes or strushses

#

Or ancient

frank grove
#

flower pot value

rancid gull
#

Or f5

vestal copper
#

flush house

cloud sinew
#

thunk doesnt like revealing stuff because it means people get disappointed if it isnt what he said it would be

frank grove
#

also cause it would just get modded in anyway

echo sphinx
#

imagine if they buff it by adding boss blinds which bricks non-enhanced cards or smth and give wild something to stand out

cloud sinew
#

which is why we know like 4 things about 1.1 so far

flat warren
#

Anybody got a dollar šŸ˜”

lyric wave
#

things will be changing due to balance or whatever whatever

ancient gyro

5 if you count new smeared joker art šŸ—£ļø

we also know about loyalty card stuff maybe the new animations for it

i have a cool idea of a wild card buff

cloud sinew

i wish chicot would reverse the boss effect instead of simply disabling

cloud sinew

all we know is it's a new banana
