nah
Yrs
Clearly, this is a guaranteed trigger every turn :cluelessline:
sooon 🥺
take the communism
i'll take raised fist
That's the women's day thing bro
because green stake is brutal coming from red
mentality
ow

You're the one with Hearts role idk 🙄
anyways i think theres something wrong with my copy of balatro
despite this, hearts is my least played suit
why is photochad edgy
Bro got the first photography ever
I CANT FIT ALL THESE JOKERS
who sepia'd my photograph bruhhh
Why did you desaturate everything
mime + sock and buskin dont work well together
just sell trading card
one retriggers face cards in hand, the other retriggers face cards played
Sell rebate then
you kinda have to choose one

i think i may be cooked in every sense of the word
THAT'S THE JOKE
You arent
Two pair, bring along the 6
fraudstone
Play two pair 5 4
Two pair and also select the lowest rank remaining until you win
Exactly
Worth

i tried this and did not win

POGstone
Fish for another 2 pair
0 discards

H a n d
buddy did i not just tell you that i lost the run
H a n d
reading comprehension vs balatro players
the run is over
the game over screen has come
H a n d
Discard
🤓
naaah
Dang, that usually works
Man
Trust
Hey guys...new to the game and have my first uber photochad opportunity. Fortune Teller is at x66 and I'm at lvl 28 on pairs and lvl 6 on high card. Any suggestions? Dump Fortune Teller or dump Card Sharp?
nope 😭
but there is a hanging chad
decent ish early chips
Kill the fortune teller
lets go photochad over that tarot guy
buffoon pack
Change fortune teller with hanging chad
sell fortune
kid named tarot guy
Danke all of you
No problem
green stake sucks :C
This is my first about to be successful run on Green Stake
It's been painful af, and I do NOT want to screw up so I came here for help...lol
you are gonna hate later stakes even more
i already beat blue stake
it's just
something about red deck
id take +1 hand over +1 discard
in every way yeah
there is a bit of learning curve when it comes to new decks
you will eventually get used to it
extra discard is a plus even though its not better than hands
flushes, pairs, straights
I'm sure youve been told this before but it doesn't really come down to luck that much
knowing when and how to discard is a skill
well i can't deckfix at ante 2 can i
im not talking abt deckfixing
im talking about when and how to discard
if you play straights try your best to get 10 9 8 7 6s on your decks
I don't want to lose this one...it;s been eating my soul.
hexed is the hardest deck for me because i keep greeding
I hate Bloodstone
looks fine to me
observatory naneinf is a meme
i can tell u rn im going to forget i need to score
well fuck i unlocked my full profile for the fucking mp cuz i didnt have pallete 😭
it's possible in theory but not in practice without abusing some other exploit because in normal circumstances you need ~750 plutos to naneinf
is there a way to back it to where it was
I made 37 million with my first pair. Looks like I'm pretty damn settled in
its fine actually nvm
ok do seeded runs give you joker stickers
i always get trapped playing flushes because nothing else scores well, how do i stop doing that
son u need 892 planets to naninf with perkeo alone
I think thats the exact amount
get comfy with cheap common jokers
Any dream card to replace Card Sharp here?
i do that but still don't score enough
one step is to learn to respect page 1 jokers more
I’m eating your score
still forced to play straights
Ok bro
how does this happen
or flushes
bad luck
With plasma right?
i mean playing flushes that early is the most practical way to do things
I think its like 880 not 892, cause 892 is e313
Ye, as I thought
876 if you start from 1 mult on plasma
not mid ante 2 where flushes dont score anymore because its green stake
I think this is the obvious choice
then get some actual scoring
Destroy everything you see
It's clearly the way
where dude
1 semi-conditional mult joker like summit should be enough
yeah that makes sense
clearly it's not in my shops
All hail obelisk
lost again ante 2 with no scoring
Another Chad/BP/BS or sock and bus
then buy planet packs if you have nothing for scoring
I’m picky, I’ll go through 50 resets before I find a good rare card or soul 😂
Show us your shops when you think there is nothing in them
It’s like 513*log2(1.5) to be exact if you wonder
Except Sinful jokers
sure dude why not
Those are mid
(Math nerd moment)
those are rhe best at that job
ante 1 ride the bus finally something usable
free win right here
they're +15 mult for flushes while being like +9 for straights
they can even clear big and ante 1 boss with just two pair
if i dont screw it up and accidentally play a face card
is this still plasma
Won't say best
I used to not care for the summit
I like the hand specific jokers
turns out it is pretty good joker
the sinful jokers literally do droll's job but better wdym
Why does ancient joker not go off of what you have in the deck?
i win
well it doesn't really matter for it to
shrug
nothing in this game is designed for endless
i mean
if it could itll make it more viable
i can see one suit being completely gone before the 8th ante
optimal joker setup!
i love flash card
yummy
sly joker bus can get you to ante 4 pretty easily
holy score difference
getting a better chip source would be good eventually
mr bones synergy tho
no shot
not on green stake
?????
it does on gold stake
Son
LETS GOOOOO FINALLY BEATEN BLUE STAKEEE
shhh sshhh
blue joker in the shop as well
do not make a statement
🔥
winning with 1.5625% of the score req
i'd take that if it's not hurting interest
im at interest cap now
oh the blinds are FINISHED
it might hurt rtb scaling a litle
Which one is sly
OK I guess this works great...lol
I love my barely functional joker builds than optimal builds
pair chips
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
black deck is jard
all my scaling gone
There are no bad jokers MFS when they see Throwback
this has happened twice with ante 1 rtb
throwback is my father i love throwback
rip.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
it is technically good for wee and stuntman unlocking requirements
Brush
Fortune teller would be decent imo
ride the bus is just a free win for me since abandoned is my first golden stake
idk if ill have enough econ for that
if i buy fortune teller
but ill go for it ig
time to spam arcana packs
in a way that wont completely murder my econ
should i sell fortune teller for green joker
green joker this early could be good but should i focus on chips more
full stone
Bulwark
I love throwback more
green stake red deck will be the death of me
You alr got Halfsie
Green joker and Bus delay econ interest
You can have fortune teller
even on green?
even on golden
Ye sure
You can sell the joker if you don't like it
To get the interest
Misprint is decent mult in early
i dont wanna hurt my econ too hard tho
i guess playing lots of pairs
yeah sure why not
I'd take Bus and Space joker and sell Misprint
if you buy both you have high chances of level up pair and gain alot of bus power
That's Pairslop build
if you minmax pair
already lvl 3 pair
nah misprint is no need to sale
is ante 2
now should i buy blue joker
on one hand i would score more but i would nerf my rtb and space joker
nah
maybe a square or wee joker would be great chip scaling
It would be useful in an abandoned run
for now i can rely on my levels
but it will probably hurt your bus
im so fucking bad at the game bro
yeah, just keep going and maybe search for Xmult
and you will easily won
space joker is putting in work dud
Chips kinda become obsolete after enough levels
lvl 6 pair
we all suck at ts
depends if scaling chips but yeah
square is a go to since wee comes in most inconvinient times
i mean both are good
i'm not going to compare
faceless joker good?
My x.1 mult joker finally came :)
100% good
use it for couple round and get rid of it
faceless is great here
It has synergy with Bus
just play pair then discard 3 faces +2 card who you don't care
search for rebate or rocket to replace it and also xmult
and the build is done
i cant get enough face cards to kill
true, free 4$
not necessary
depends
you're better off saving money for interest
like if you want some extra mult yeah
space dice is fun
keep it until you find xmult
We smoking that high card 6 hand size polychrome photochad slop pack
On the long term yes, if you need money rn no
if you check out tarot pack then yeah
it is temp value
emperor?
what are the best tarot cards to look out for
kinda thinking of using hanged man on king and queen
faceless likely isn't permanent
i suppose
get rid of head cards
hermit, death, hanged man, temperance, devil, fool if it's on something good
i'll take egg and move to the next round
strength is great too
lucky cards are good for money aswell
stone cards help rtb a lot too
im minmaxxing pairs rn though
I won so many stakes with using devil
which ante are you currently
ante 4
about to head into the boss blind
which is the flint so i should be able to get a little more rtb value from it
get chips if possible
incase you somehow don't find any xmult until ante 8
since its guaranteed 4$ at the end of the round instead of being luckbased
you could keep both if you have a free slot still
i do not
then sell faceless
did dat
what do you call this setup
rip
wildfire
i need to be more aggressive on scoring in early ante
golden needle is genuinely such an abysmal experience
needle and flint
honestly this is the type of build where it's harder to lose
why ante 1 to me
but it happens
guess we're taking popcorn for a little early sustain
i would rather be beaten with a bat then have to play through golden needle
All decks black staked
surely the buffoon pack saves your run
it was popcorn
i might wanna download the sleeves mod just for the deck selection ui
hiero isn't showing up
dusk isnt showing up
acro isn't showing up
haven't even made it past ante 3
it's balatrover
how long does popcorn reasonably last if you get it first shop
how did you sit through black deck man
4 rounds before you can sell
5
yea 5
4 rounds then sell is my strat with this joker (sell at +4mult)
well i did 2 rounds
what do i sell for the joker with flames (i forgot his name)
lucky hermit in da shopsicle
btw abandoned deck should be on top right
do i gamble for another in arcana pack to have like 55$
take the summit
anything else?
help pls
should i look inside the arcana since i have money
hi guys
I would buy arcana pack but It may not be optional
so I am not fully confident
judgement will surely save me
its just green stake
the moment i baronmime its over
doesnt matter
General advice question. What card mods should I prioritize with this setup? Chips, Mult, or Lucky? I assume all Steel is ideal as you progress, correct?
gold for consistency
judgment if you feel funny
what hand are you running
This run gave me gold stickers on four jokers - including my last legendary, perkeo! 😄
lets go for naneinf
nice
ill just take devil and keep playing flushes till i find something good
😈
time to sell popcorn
i got supernova in the shop but idk how well that would go
maybe if i discard for lots of pairs at once then play them all
wait i wouldnt
I have personal bias for supernova
gold cards are pretty buns with flushes
i think supernova is outshined by a bunch of other mults
Why wouldn't you plan ahead for a pair pivot in that scenario
i don't really have options here
although i do have 47$
reroll shop maybe?
next reroll will have blueprint trust
rerolling is always a good idea if you have extra money
just stay over 25
take empereor to filter the options out first
the priority is rerolling before taking packs
ah
ic
i made the mistake of taking the arcana first because i am the impatient boy
i dont assume anything good in here though?
maybe steel card just in case
or hiero for chips
ill hiero my king and 8 then?
or 2 7s for a pair setup
indeeed
i got wheel of fortune and justice from the emperor
i usually keep my face cards for money later on
i think i let the wheel rip then make a glass card in the next round
I just lost to the cerulian bell 🥀
justice is nice
huffff
What's an easy way to gold sticker blackboard? Should I do spadesmaxxing on checkered deck?
50 chips...
I was on erradic deck and had a 5oak going on and the bell kept hitting my kings while i didnt have enough to play a hand
I would reluctantly buy communism
yeah thats what i was goin for
foil hand is great here
its only 1 dollar of interest
ill make it back
i have enough chips and mult to see me through
on to ante 3 and hopefully much better things
i wanna know how people get setups like this
is it seeded or just very good gameplay
this was unseeded
you just have to learn how to fix and get econ
may be rare but not impossible
how many hours do u have
33
ok it goes well with fist
play pairs or highs for fist value
while increasing the green joker
high card
i have never had a good high card build
except for plasma deck with stone cards
those play pretty much the same as pairs
regardless if i got burglar right now i would be happy
if you clear low rank cards you wouldny need a build for it since fist will take care of it anyway
got it
black deck is too hard 😔
anything else or move to the next blind?
i got 26$ and i dont wanna go below interest cap again
because being broke is the bane of all balatro runs
i think ur fine
I dread
or high card
sorry for asking so much but in a situation like this would you play the ace first then start from the bottom to maximise green joker value
it doesnt go well with green
ace, 10, 2 pairs
what is the deck looking like
naninf attempt?
keep the ace for the future pairs
play the pair of fives, then the 7s
first ever
but it doesnt really matter either way
ill get rid of mystic summit next shop
get rid of celeste chapter 7
insane deck 🔥
wow very good showman value
is there a memory leak to do with balatro btw
i notice my pc starts lagging after a while of playing it
sell mystic summit and get half joker?
yuh
what should i do in this shop
im not necessarily trying to level pairs up yet because i still dont have very good green joker
broken
wow
SHOP 1 BLUEPRINT GOSH GOLLY
egg for temperance value
dying to ante 1 boss?
can someone fix my aura im clearly in aura debt
beat it in 2 hands
holy fuck
Why do you need Mystic summit when you have two flat multers and a Grimbo
Surely you can use the extra hands to scale Grimbo
huuuufffff
xmult but i dont like it
i would assume you take the cat
rebate looking sweet
i dont really have lucky cards to trigger it with but im sure i can find a way
cause you have 3 +mult and 2 +chip and you don't reaallly wanna discard cause of grimbo
personally
nah you take mail in rebate trusttt fuck your grimbo
oh
You do
Grimbo's restriction is a guideline
well yeah rebate is still rebate xd
but i would take cat myself because yayy xmult
this sounds like a bad jjk mechanic
i feel like people think grimbo disables ur ability to discard and it isnt true
honestly as long as ur going positive each round id say ur fine
This might be my best start
by around 2 maybe 3 mult
START???
i got the magician from arcana pack
i guess we're going lucky cards
ANOTHER magician
Rare skip tag, blue from buffoon, and a NATURAL NEGATIVE MINE
45x lucky cat when
smh
making statements again
should I pivot
this is statistically unlikely
Absolutely
I think it is 1/6
well thats definitly more than 6
so true
7 hands no space man trigger
That's why it's called probability lol
Luck of the draw
Credit card in the buffoon pack
this is why i never win green stake
You did it wrong
trust i get chaos reroll and there's a blueprint in the next shop i cant afford
greedy joker set me to 0$ 😭
do you now see why rebate was a smarter play
rough start ig
no just like
i still cant get out of the flush trap in ante 1-2
who is using that at low stakes
ts is not a trap
is reserved good econ here
pair lobotomy low stakes is like
man
the youth have been corrupted
ur saying things
i just wanna get good at the balatro
he is making statements
this is good practice especially for someone who hasnt reached the highest stakes yet
oh the youth is corrupted but they should play photochad
i wish i was doing this
dumb ahh logic
i like parking :3
i would take it
i had +mult
uhhh
oh crazy?
raised fist again
W raised fist
is it pairs now?
huh
should i play pairs with raised fist
i personally would
ive decieded im not the one to ask here
common riff raff w
last time i got raised fist i played high card
no way i got hanging chad from my riffraff 🥺
and scary face
i knew i shoulda taken photograph
faahck
trust we get photo back soon
bruh bruh bruh bruh bro
is this wee gaming or hack gaming or both
it was wee hack into idol
so like
yes
what should i do in this shop
sell riffraff and misprint for baron?
hell no
i would personally skip it
then just do heavy deckfixing to get lots of kings
its much more doable than any other early game baron
the psychic is next boss
what would the better way to do it be
its really fun though
skip baron
What would you guys pick here
sell misprint for something better next round?
should i sell misprint tho
soul
no risk with it
If its a bad card then free 10 bucks
I am playing Abandoned deck so Trib and Canio aren't ideal for me
judgement gives a negative rebait here
if you know you can live without it then yes, you have chips and raised fist
time to get strengths
like I said if bad card then free 10 bucks
Lowkey an argument for picking Judgement
I can save scum to see what I get from both
if you throw away a potential yorick thats lowkey foolish
Man
1/4 vs the rng hell of judgement
blueprint
do i reluctantly sell riffraff for constellation
i genuinely have no clue how i would ever get a solo win on green stake
i want to make a public apology to grimbo
runs over
yes
i could never deckfix like this
do debuffed face cards reset bus
im ngl neither can i
nope
this is a rough spot
I can work with this
thanks!
yes
np
small deck
if i get cav soon i will cry
im on ante 2 big blind jokerless
when will i find something good
or much rather anything at all
holo acrobat ❤️
looks similar to this pack
i havent gotten a pack like this in lime 4 days
holy
lol
3 min ago
all it was missing was a mega pack
saved my run lowkey
im taking bp anyways
grabber
might have to take grabber to make it through the big blind
5 discards 5 hands would go wild
OH
sly joker pairslop
and the tooth will drain all my econ
and i will lose yet again
fuck green stake
ante 4 rtb
So many good choices 😩

(double ancient joker + chad)
deck or stake
5 billion points
aj got me my first ever win
stake
i felt like a genius
i literally could not
my scoring was too dogshit
"you should've just played straight flushes" ✌️
i dont wanna 😣
AJ spotted
once wild cards get better ill use aj more
aj is littearly a free win what are you talking about
Run kinda cheeks tbh
i believe you
ive lost maybe twice with it and let me tell you ive taken it more than twice
I just think it's fun with retriggers!
I'm starting to think balatro is inspired by poker
What else you have
this run is doomed to fail
absolutely nothing!
It is if you can read
theres a buffon
sybau
what does aj stand for
soooon ✌️
ancient joker
Depends on how soon you think you can get something good to pair with it
Ancient joker
oh i found a riff i won
90s metal bands
people be making acronyms 
what is green stake being fed bro
mone
ive entirely forgot how to play balatro
IM GOING TO LOSE TO THE PLANTTT
wait till this blud hears about purple stake
son
VV pruple
i was watching a purple stake run
apple juice
i wanted to cry
First time i played purple stake and faced violet vessel, i almost had a heart attack
Just get the AJs again 
you should watch some more
this gameplay of yours sorry as hell rn
i hope you enjoy having a completely good run with high chances of scoring enough to win, and then seeing a 1.2m vessel
💔
yeah watching balatro uni will help you tons
right hand work wit me
square
shop 1 square joker
square gaming yippie
odd todd clears
nuh uh
guess im playing two pairs
all my homies hate square joker
you dont have to
square joker gets so good at later antes
you can scale pairs with 4 cards in hand
well yeah but it has decent scoring while scaling
i guess you could
i also need to survive green stake though
will i be able to scale square joker fast enough to keep up
Square + the support of a multer
i dont HAVE a multer
if you can get a mult scaler its mad ideal
So find one
Bus, green,supernova
bootstraps 🫀
take it
Just find a +mult joker and it should be an easy win
hanging chad... not right now bruh
i have found myself in quite a predicament.
how much time do i reasonably have
that grabber is also nice
i should've just taken chad
xmult compilation
this always happens bro 😭
space is right there blud
spaceuk joker
Yes
Couldn’t find that stupid baron
space joker...
my issue is i can't get any planet cards to scale my constellations up and i'm about to lose and i can't afford blueprint
build more into steel so you can actually live blinds then i guess
riffraff ❤️
the rest of the game looking mighty clear
Green and burnt is funny
game just feeding me the slop
it works well
bros sorting by suit 😨
green is just scaling a lil less and its pretty controlled
yes ik
i was just doing that for small blind
because i always play flushes on small blind
fair
dawg
hand size? never heard of em!
Take parking
psychic is genuinely about to do something bad to you
im getting such good seeds today
holy econ
mime too
:)
What deck is easy to win on
ghost
thats alot
i need to get blue seals
what
i have mime and need to level pairs
that just hurt my brain
im taking the foil bbc
my brain associates mime with high card now im ngl
guess what joker I found first shop
aj?
bbc is baseball card
blueprint?
time to ankh
i need to start playing high card more really
no
to scale my rtb
Found joker stencil aswell shop after by accident
fuck
that wouldve been a better hex
