[lost vault]

especially blueprints

[digital pewter]

showman? more like

uh

erm

potentialman

[lost vault]

i dont think anythings even worth keeping showman for there

you have full joker slots

all of your jokers are good

a blueprint probably wouldnt be better than dna

[digital pewter]

nah you gotta understand

they could get another nat negative copy

[lost vault]

wawow

[vocal matrix]

Well, the jokers changed a little...

[digital pewter]

think of the possibilities!

[lost vault]

i love keeping a detrimental joker in hopes of getting something rarer than a soul

[vocal matrix]

It hit the bean 4 times

[lost vault]

blueprint the bean

🔥

[vocal matrix]

Its just that I don't win

[digital pewter]

crimson bean

turtle heart

[vocal matrix]

But should I risk for another hit?

[lost vault]

sure

im sure u could urvive even if it debuffs mime

surely

[vocal matrix]

As long it doesn't debuff baron ig

[lost vault]

if it doesnt hit baron on the second to last hand id bail out

[vocal matrix]

Ok, ty, let's see if the gamble pays out

[slow iris]

deserved

[lost vault]

so called number one throwback hater took an eternal throwback

fraudster

[slow iris]

need the gold sticker for c++ on this profile ykyk

[pastel hatch]

aaaa its always such a pain

[vernal breach]

Chat should I sell baron for steel joker? Baron gives only X1.5 but this gives X12 thats like a huge difference

[knotty zodiac]

round 1 megatrolling you by not giving you 1 hand clear

[ivory glen]

too much gold game (golden joker, delayed gratification and business card)

[lost vault]

are we deadass right now

[heady minnow]

I love the pkmn mod

[pastel hatch]

i was 296 score in first hand

[ivory glen]

I just replaced the textures in the actual file, no mods

[knotty zodiac]

rip

[heady minnow]

wait did you make this yourself?

[ivory glen]

no

I took the file and 7zip

then replaced the textures manually

because I don't like how mods work in this game

[humble gulch]

I'm so tempted right now...

[heady minnow]

alright than, either way it's really cool!

[slow iris]

yes

[lost vault]

its so bait

[lost vault]

why are we lying

[humble gulch]

We're dying with this run

[compact gazelle]

its like a cursed mask that possesses the wearer and also offers no benefit

[humble gulch]

-1 joker slot

[slow iris]

glassy

[vocal matrix]

NO WAY (It didn't hit bean again btw)

[compact gazelle]

baron is like playing on painted deck but with minus handsize

Baron Deck
-1 joker slot, -2 handsize

[humble gulch]

Idol deck 2

[vocal matrix]

This run has been crazy, really good vouchers from the start, 6 total hits on bean and luck finding jokers

[slow iris]

almost done with painted++

[humble gulch]

That's more like it

[compact gazelle]

the $1 of interest gain in your joker slots:

[humble gulch]

🥺

Hell yeah

[slow iris]

two foils in ante 1

crazy

[scarlet narwhal]

guys help what do i get rid of for luckycat??? invis joker??

[slow iris]

oh my god why does everything have an edition

[humble gulch]

Wheel deck, every joker has a 1/4 chance to get an edition

[slow iris]

FUCK OFF

[olive flax]

Guys, im going insane on abandoned deck, orange. Any tips?

[compact gazelle]

oh my god you took bootstraps

[versed sable]

-# cute pfp choice tbh

[humble gulch]

The same is happening to me 💔

[slow iris]

is there any reason for me not to though

it's mult and chips

[compact gazelle]

bad

[humble gulch]

I love bootstraps

[compact gazelle]

ante 1 bootstraps wtf are we doing

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[humble gulch]

That's a free win, what do you mean 🥀

[versed sable]

it's with Midas and it's probably the only mult option they had

[serene forge]

its foil

[versed sable]

seems good to me

[serene forge]

above average bootstraps

[slow iris]

and now i have $92 at ante 4

[compact gazelle]

find mult later

[serene forge]

also yeah midas

[serene forge]

you can't be that picky

[humble gulch]

Why we are hating on bootstraps for absolutely no reason

🐱

[serene forge]

it's trash

but like

[compact gazelle]

it’s not a bad option but
its bootstraps

[serene forge]

i'm the biggest boots hater

[compact gazelle]

bad

[serene forge]

and i would've still picked that up

[compact gazelle]

sure i can
shortcut or reset trust

[humble gulch]

Only bloodstone doesn't have an edition

[versed sable]

stab bloodstone

[fringe crest]

did you guys see the honeypot thing

#ceremonial-dagger dont send anything here

[versed sable]

which my discord insisted on showing me multiple times, yes

[slow iris]

wheel rolled foil

crazy

[slow iris]

loving the new name

[fringe crest]

is there a way to remove it?

[versed sable]

remove from channel list

[fringe crest]

huh?

[compact gazelle]

not till now
ty for showing it

[slow iris]

of the channel

[fringe crest]

i dont see that though.

[versed sable]

that works too -w-

[fringe crest]

it just stays at the top

ig i just gotta live with it

[serene forge]

here win

[serene forge]

whyd you bloodstone

[fringe crest]

shop 1

[compact gazelle]

that’s worse

[fringe crest]

yeahhhh

[humble gulch]

Why not

[fringe crest]

not me tho

[serene forge]

its bad

[fringe crest]

like

super duper bad

[compact gazelle]

bad

[humble gulch]

I like bloodstone tho

[fringe crest]

worse than throwback bad

[compact gazelle]

third time I’ve just replied “bad” today :3

[serene forge]

yeah i think i won

[humble gulch]

No way riff raff gave you obelisk

[serene forge]

average riff W

[fringe nebula]

riff raff immolate at ante 1 wtfff

[versed sable]

my favorite common joker

[serene forge]

riff was from judgment btw

that's how i could get the riff and the spectral

[compact gazelle]

the levels of bad are like
usable bad (bootstraps)
barely usable bad (throwback)
unusable bad (showman)

[compact gazelle]

op

[fringe crest]

i spent a minute looking for this image

[fringe crest]

showman?

[knotty zodiac]

where is seance on this scale

[compact gazelle]

permanent marker font wtf
I haven’t seen that since elementary school

[fringe crest]

dont ever diss my boy showman again💔

[compact gazelle]

barely usable imo

not showman idol level bad

[fringe crest]

so seance is better than showman

[compact gazelle]

well
one does nothing the other actively hurts you
both take a joker slot both give baseball value

[fringe crest]

how is showman bad

ive lit had zero issue using showman

sure

you cant tarot block

doesnt do too much anyway

[knotty zodiac]

showman prevents tarot and planet blocking

[fringe crest]

mhmm

[frozen tendon]

ah. bloodstone going 2/10 to cost my run, wouldn't want it to end any other way.

[knotty zodiac]

also gives you tarot and planet dupes inside packs, making them worse

[fringe crest]

meh

[compact gazelle]

even if you don’t block actively the cards in packs no longer block each other

[fringe crest]

could be good could be bad

better jokers

[compact gazelle]

can only be good in megas

[frozen tendon]

tarot/planet blocking is great

[fringe crest]

yeah

its not bad

[frozen tendon]

i'd still hold it if i had common jokers i want dupes of though ofc

[fringe crest]

its just not super duper effective

[compact gazelle]

showman hurts more than it helps generally

[fringe crest]

not for me

[frozen tendon]

yeah, def just depends on what your jokers are. showman also can be pure luck and constantly give you deaths and hermit so.

[serene forge]

I hate Clearance Sale

[frozen tendon]

that part is a gamble

[frozen tendon]

factual

hate my temps bein $8 on ante 8

[compact gazelle]

I
am indifferent to clearance sale

[fringe crest]

i dont think losing tarot blocking and slightly worse packs is that bad when you consider that you can get a dupe of a joker

there was one run where i got double eternal showman on orange stake and i won

[frozen tendon]

showman is just a gamba joker, that's about it really

everything with the guy is gamba

[frank grove]

yeah but most of the time the jokers you're taking to ante 8 are scaling and might not be retroactive, getting a duped red card does almost nothing

[fringe crest]

i did have bp perkeo bull though

[versed sable]

showman is generally impractical until endless imo

[fringe crest]

why does no one like showman

[humble gulch]

I mean

[frozen tendon]

would be nearly impossible to die, also, showman does nothing since you don't want to spend money lol

[night turret]

Can this be a potential run to at least ante 14?

[fringe crest]

no no

[compact gazelle]

duplicate jokers aren’t always particularly good
especially considering the showman copies start unscaled vs invis or ankh
you’re unlikely to get a blueprint/brainstorm let alone another with showman

[night turret]

Been trying to best my high score up a lot

[fringe crest]

the one showman got me the other showman

[wintry ice]

people here usually don't like highly inconsistent options

[compact gazelle]

bad

(#4)

[knotty zodiac]

lol ok no more falling for the bait

[fringe crest]

#4???

im lit not even baiting

[knotty zodiac]

days since i fell for the bait: 0

[versed sable]

most of the time the stuff you have in non-endless isn't good enough to want dupes of i think

[fringe crest]

hes b tier in my books

[frank grove]

what else is in b tier for you?

[compact gazelle]

always do the bit

[wintry ice]

what practical use does he have in the main part of the game

[fringe crest]

im not baiting

[knotty zodiac]

proof of bait

[fringe crest]

ok yk what fine yall dissagree im leaving

bye bye vic

[compact gazelle]

see you never
maybe having showman would let you find another person who likes showman :3

[wintry ice]

he went for the one person who just joined the discussion and asked to elaborate

sobbing

[balmy ocean]

FELLAS THIS IS IT. THIS IS THE UNSEEDED NANINF RUN AND I KNOW IT!!!

[knotty zodiac]

they just miss you vic

[frozen tendon]

i mean, i kinda like showman. he's a cute little guy. just useless unless it is endless imo.

[fringe crest]

bc i actually know you and ive never seen these peeps

[slow iris]

showman is UGLY

and STUPID

and

STUPID

[fringe crest]

youre hurting my feelings

[compact gazelle]

and

bad

(#5)

:3

[ivory sable]

blueprint or no? help me guys

[compact gazelle]

fym “or no”

[frozen tendon]

bye bye hallu

[humble gulch]

🐑

[frozen tendon]

i hate green deck

and nebula

especially nebula

[ivory sable]

Should I go for him or not? If yes, who would you replace?

[humble gulch]

The only deck I hate is nebula

[frozen tendon]

hallucination

[compact gazelle]

yes, hallucination or chad depending on how important cat scaling and deck fixing are to you

[humble gulch]

Every other deck is really fun

[slow iris]

even black deck?

[ivory sable]

ty guys

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[stoic isle]

i HATE zodiac deck!!!

[compact gazelle]

don’t we all

[frozen tendon]

has to be halluctination, chad is just money and scaling. why would it be chad

[humble gulch]

I invite all of you guys to a public execution (joke)

[compact gazelle]

chad would be if their deck is poorly fixed

e.g not enough lucky cards, or not enough rank/suit to ensure good hand draws

[slow iris]

i love runner!!!!!!

[stoic isle]

and i LOVE arrowhead and i LOVE hess!!! 📊

[vernal breach]

Naneinf incoming

[knotty zodiac]

zodiac deck says take that back

[humble gulch]

Only 15 jokers left

[frozen tendon]

yeah that's fair, would def need to see their deck

[humble gulch]

Who doesn't

[serene forge]

this game is so fucking easy

[humble gulch]

W riff raff

[frozen tendon]

but, i personally would still sell hallu no matter what, maybe i'm just a greedy guy

[compact gazelle]

balatro is a solved game
just get an obelisk

[humble gulch]

I'll probably die, but I'll die rich

[empty silo]

what happens chat

[knotty zodiac]

killed by dagger

[humble gulch]

Free win

[frozen tendon]

mf made $5 talm bout "die rich"

[knotty zodiac]

in black that's a small fortune

[humble gulch]

That's like 2 million in black deck

[frozen tendon]

haha okay i didn't notice it was black, fair enough

[empty silo]

budget chad

[humble gulch]

Again, but this time I get an extra joker

I'm taking red card 🥀

[serene forge]

obelisk is pretty good

[serene forge]

here win

[frozen tendon]

have you beaten black deck gold stake?

i'd prob take the chad ngl

but like i said b4 i'm greedy

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[frozen tendon]

i thought that's what the ++ meant

and i mean, is chad over red card that crazy?

i suppose early it is red card tbf

[humble gulch]

Free win

[frozen tendon]

ankh dah rental rebate

that's $4 a discard

[humble gulch]

I were about to skip 'till I remembered that I'm in black deck

Hell yeah

[humble gulch]

I just thought about it and it should be 5 × [number of selected cards discarded] -6

[frozen tendon]

i just meant like, if you discard 1 for the round it is $10-$6 lol

[night turret]

BLOODSTONE HERE WE COME

[humble gulch]

Were hitting the road

[rustic swallow]

hologram or burglar ante 1 checkered deck? (i'm a beginner)

[night turret]

hologram

[fringe nebula]

hologram

[rustic swallow]

Ok ty

[night turret]

Better mult, you wanna use burglar for endless run

[blissful fog]

Burglar ain't doing nothing early

[rustic swallow]

nah im just beating green stake

[fringe nebula]

with hologram, you want to play easy to get hand like pairs because of deck bloating

[humble gulch]

Bean

[rustic swallow]

Ok, so I get magic trick right?

[errant brook]

I'm trying to get my first gold stake naneinf, and I KNOW taking the Soul card is wrong here...but this is funny

[fringe nebula]

yes

[rustic swallow]

Ok

[humble gulch]

Money

[night turret]

II mean....

[humble gulch]

And that's a free win

[night turret]

That egg can go fo now

[errant brook]

Oddly I got punished. I found reserved parking after and sold the egg

[rustic swallow]

eyyy first perkeo

[night turret]

You didnt take the soul?

[errant brook]

No cuz I didn't want to sell Egg or Lucky Cat since I already had Perkeo and Trib

[humble gulch]

That's funny

[errant brook]

Whatever I got wasn't going to immediately help me

[knotty topaz]

Oh god run is ruined great

I UNLOCKED PLASMA DECK ON MY MAIN PROFILE 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

[humble gulch]

Round one investment tag or round two investment tag

[errant brook]

[cosmic sun]

rough goat

[slow iris]

i hated that run so much i ended up deciding to skip to the end and got a dna along the way

i had a few glass purple seal cards and some four of a kind levels before then

[balmy ocean]

Just found a nat negative dusk

This run is so goated

[frail ingot]

Should i take sock and buskin

[balmy ocean]

Yeah sure why not

[frail ingot]

Too late

Idk with what to replace

[knotty topaz]

[empty silo]

But it's not even worth it

[empty silo]

I'm on the next run now

[empty silo]

too bad we won't know cus my dumbass forgot to GET THE SEED

[tacit stream]

but not having even a +mult and chip joker hurts a lot.

[flat tiger]

I never got PhotoChad in white stake but I get it every run in red stake if I survive ante 2 lol, and I finally reached ante 12

[empty silo]

[frail ingot]

[frail ingot]

Damn

[empty silo]

[frail ingot]

But man it's Actually bad

[empty silo]

everyone hates on it even tho it's so much fun

[frail ingot]

[empty silo]

[flat tiger]

[empty silo]

[frail ingot]

[empty silo]

pov every run today:

[slow iris]

[frail ingot]

But when u skip it u never see it again

[north anvil]

One question: is there a date yet for the Balatro update?

[empty silo]

yk egg is giving me $50 temperances I'm gonna keep it until I see something good

[frail ingot]

No

Local thunk doesn't want to give a specific date

[median needle]

The blatro update comes out tomorrow yes

[frail ingot]

[slow iris]

[empty silo]

I still only have 2 copies of that queen btw, deaths really evading it

[slow iris]

which is what you need if you're going for an endless/naneinf run

[limber nova]

What does the egg do for score? Why does he murder so many runs?

every run the past 2 days

[limber nova]

That’s what you get when you mention luck

[empty silo]

I shouldn't have been greedy, should've kept bloodstone

bloodstone would've saved me

[limber nova]

Big rip

[plain briar]

do i need a dna

[empty silo]

there's seed, ghost deck + checkered sleeve, white stake

[balmy ocean]

I’m just saying, the Nintendo Balatro was not meant to reach ante 21

I’m lagging like holy hell

[empty silo]

welp that was fun but I gotta go to bed so gn yall

[frail ingot]

Nintendo 2?

[frail ingot]

Gn

[balmy ocean]

No 1

[limber nova]

The switch one’s hardware was trash even in 2017

[balmy ocean]

Smth tells me I’m gonna be here for a while

[frail ingot]

Maybe reduce speed

[balmy ocean]

Running baron mine with 3 copy jokers and 22 red seal steel Kings

[frail ingot]

But u gonna be there for ever

[balmy ocean]

Not a bad idea 🧐

Not even gonna get Nan inf

It just ain’t enough bruh

Neither I nor this console can take any more of this

I’m throwing in the towel

[wicked sonnet]

insane run

[fringe crest]

if you have less playtime than someone has more but you are better than the person who has more does that make you the bigger chud?

[wicked sonnet]

5 new gold stickers is so fire and a legendary sticker too

[limber nova]

I’m gonna be real man, my Iphone has more powerful hardware than the Sw1

[still pike]

Sell abstract and get the soul/legendary joker

[limber nova]

It is just not made for this kind of stuff

[wicked sonnet]

duh 😭

[balmy ocean]

Watch it be chiko (the goat)

[wicked sonnet]

i already have gold sticker on chicot

it was trib

[balmy ocean]

W

[limber nova]

Nah, other guy just has skill issue

[still pike]

Has anyone got black hole from spectral in a while? I havent in a month

[wicked sonnet]

seriously could pivot to flush five but i'm not bothered lol

[wicked sonnet]

yeah got it yesterday

[still pike]

Lucky

[balmy ocean]

e127

Holy moly

[limber nova]

07

[balmy ocean]

Shit I’ve been at this god forsaken seed for like 2 hours

This is so gonna throw me off of my nonexistent sleep schedule

[frail ingot]

Early photograph or rocket

[limber nova]

photochadphotochadphotochadphotocha-

[still pike]

Rocket for money then photo in the future

[limber nova]

This.

[wicked sonnet]

so glad to get steel joker out of the way

and only perkeo left for all gold legendaries

[still pike]

Rank all legendary jokers from worst to best

[limber nova]

New insult unlocked:
I hope your next soul card gives you chicot

[frail ingot]

Tf why u guys hate chicot

[flat tiger]

Ouija hitting ace back to back (not the same run tough)

[limber nova]

It just isn’t good, the value it gives doesn’t outweigh what you could have in Mult instead

[wicked sonnet]

for ante 8? yorick, canio, trib, chicot, perkeo

depends when you get each though

[flat tiger]

perkeo is useful in more cases then chicot no?

[wicked sonnet]

if you're up to the finisher blind and you get a legendary joker, chicot is the best cuz you have nothing less lol

[wicked sonnet]

depends when you get it

it can carry a run with econ

but chicot is actually quite good

it means you don't have to worry about anything you just build around it

if you get invis/ankh you can do some silly shenanigans

[flat tiger]

chicot is only good if the boss could have killed you if you can win anyway you wasted a joker slot

[vernal breach]

Imagine if chicot was always negative

[wicked sonnet]

perkeo is only good if you have good consumables, trib is only good if you have good econ/deckfixing/copy jokers, etc. etc.

every joker is situational

and if you can beat the boss blind anyway it doesn't matter who the last joker is

[flat tiger]

how many times are you really not getting anything perkeo that can copy?

[limber nova]

It would be BROKEN

[flat tiger]

spam planet or spamming tarot is great on its own

[wicked sonnet]

depends when you get perkeo

[limber nova]

Especially if you managed to dupe it

[wicked sonnet]

every joker is situational that's just a fact though

[flat tiger]

the only time perkeo is bad is when I need scores to survive RIGHT NOW

[wicked sonnet]

perkeo is definitely good that's why it's legendary

it's just the worst out of the five for ante 8

especially on gold stake which is what i'm talking about

[slow iris]

which one though

pretty low bar tbh

[wicked sonnet]

the thing with chicot is it can operate as a standalone

[flat tiger]

but chicot still does nothing most of the time

[limber nova]

It’s a 14 pro

[wicked sonnet]

hard disagree

[vernal breach]

Whats the best gold stake joker besides copy jokers?
I would say pants prob

[wicked sonnet]

pants is definitely the best scaling +mult

[edgy stone]

Econ Jokers

[flat tiger]

pants > bus

[wicked sonnet]

rebate is always good

[limber nova]

Agree

[wicked sonnet]

hologram/constellation are really good xmult

[flat tiger]

you dont get screwed by playing not 2 pairs

[wicked sonnet]

grimbo is good

even simple stuff like abstract are solid

[edgy stone]

Most of best econ jokers are common, that makes them worth

[wicked sonnet]

gold joker is solid really early on

that +4 every round is super valuable

[vernal breach]

I remember having like 40$ cloud nine

[flat tiger]

i mean pants is uncommon but theres so many common joker its not like you see bus that much more, yet pants is way stronger

[wicked sonnet]

pants is quite literally the best +mult

two pairs aren't hard to get and +2 per hand is insane

plus the chips scaling on planets is solid

[edgy stone]

And superova is even stronger

[wicked sonnet]

i love supernova

[flat tiger]

nova is 1 mult per play no?

[wicked sonnet]

2nd best +mult

yeah

but it's easy pair spam

[still pike]

W jokers and (win?

[flat tiger]

how is nova even stronger then pants

[wicked sonnet]

imo it's not

[wicked sonnet]

i played a lot of photochad before getting c+ lol

[jovial whale]

Yet another unusual run — Abandoned Deck, Gold Stake. I started off playing a polychrome Spare Trousers run, until I found a Soul, and it gave Triboulet. After that, I found a polychrome Queen in a Standard Pack, and did a complete pivot

[wicked sonnet]

print screen button

[flat tiger]

nova tend to be quite weak at least during ante 1-8

[wicked sonnet]

not at all

[edgy stone]

You dont need to feed it for a few rounds. Take it any time you get

[wicked sonnet]

nova is extremely strong

[still pike]

Im on a phone discord and computer balatro

[flat tiger]

I get more mult out of forturn teller then nova

[wicked sonnet]

you're not playing it right then

[limber nova]

Maybe they don’t have discord on their machine?

[still pike]

Agreed

[frail ingot]

Bro turn on High contrast card in settings

[jovial whale]

Usually when I find Supernova I just spam pairs

[wicked sonnet]

yep

best way to win

[frail ingot]

Nvm

Good night

[jovial whale]

Here are my stats on a Gold Stakes only profile:

[limber nova]

It’s already on…

[frail ingot]

Yeah mb

Gn

[wicked sonnet]

this makes total sense lol

i've only had one good red card run tho

[limber nova]

PHOTOCHAD

[wicked sonnet]

rip run

ran into the plant

[edgy stone]

Flush enjoyer?

[wicked sonnet]

got sock and buskin and pivoted to flush five to score 300b which i hoped would give me enough time to find some copies

but the plant strikes again

[frail ingot]

I am new i used to play flushes

[vernal breach]

Ace enjoyer

[wicked sonnet]

WAIT

NEGATIVE MR BONES

IS THE RUN SAVED???????

[frail ingot]

Not with that economy

[wicked sonnet]

i just need to strength the steel cards and then copy with dna

[frail ingot]

And that many cards

[wicked sonnet]

shhhhh

i'm not trying to naneinf or anything i just don't want to die to the plant

[still pike]

Only because I get it alot ante 1

[vernal breach]

I hope aces will get buffed

[still pike]

Why

[wicked sonnet]

wasn't enough anyway 🙁

2 mil off bones saving

[edgy stone]

Only 3 jokers which support Ace: Scholar, Odd Todd, Fibonacci. Do I miss sth else?

[still pike]

Ante 1 dagger a win right (blue stake ghost)

[wintry ice]

grim makes them good for setting up 3oaks

[wicked sonnet]

just put my stats into a c++ tracker and i'm only 85/150...

still so much left

i should probably be doing anaglyph instead of ghost for now

but i'm more consistent at ghost

[final escarp]

Enhanced Joker (Rare):
When boss blind defeated, remove an edition from a random joker and add negative to that joker

balanced?

[slow iris]

you mean edition?

[final escarp]

yes sorry

[limber nova]

So what, lose holo, gain negative?

[final escarp]

yes

doesnt work if no enhancements

negative jokers can be chosen

[lunar zealot]

OH GODDAMMIT

[limber nova]

Remove negative,
add negative
stonks

[lunar zealot]

i really wish i could take that

[final escarp]

its to make sure you dont get 30 negative jokers with a wheel of fortune

[rustic swallow]

What should I do? *I'm a beginner

[limber nova]

[limber nova]

USE ANKH!

(I’m lying pls don’t )

[rustic swallow]

lol

black hole?

[limber nova]

Wait

[frail ingot]

Use black hole

[limber nova]

THIS GUY GOT BLACK HOLE

[rustic swallow]

is it that rare

[eager summit]

hacking my wee

[limber nova]

I did that yesterday! Twas fun

[still pike]

Soal and balck hole good

Soul

[final escarp]

yooo is that medium

[faint linden]

Yes. That and Soul are the rarest two

[slow iris]

ya

[still pike]

Take soul

[final escarp]

use medium its really good free tarots

[limber nova]

I think i would take Black Hole personally, just coz it has a guaranteed benefit

[still pike]

No get soul because you orob wont see it again

[slow iris]

one time i found 3 souls in a single run all before ante 8
two of them were in the same shop

[rustic swallow]

lol ive seen it so many times like 10 but only 2 souls

[prime zephyr]

Anyone have tips for beating blue deck on orange stake

[neon hollow]

❤️ Michael

[prime zephyr]

like are perishable jokers worth buying

[lone tendon]

I finally got my first legendary gold sticker, but of course it's chicot, it was always destined to be chicot

[prime zephyr]

how tf...

[wicked sonnet]

regular tips apply

[lunar zealot]

depends what the joker is

[wicked sonnet]

not really anything else

[flat tiger]

i got better in flush builds and it got me wins but its boring AF

[slow iris]

depends on the situation

[wicked sonnet]

get some scaling mult and focus on economy

[slow iris]

and joker

[wicked sonnet]

blue deck should help with early econ because of the extra hand

and don't be afraid to take jokers that you don't need at ante 8

as long as it gets you through

[lone tendon]

Chicot did carry the run a lot of the time though

[neon hollow]

As our lord and saviour local thunk intended

[slow iris]

chigoat

[limber nova]

Ooooohhhh Banana!

[wicked sonnet]

w chicot

[wicked sonnet]

how'd you do this

showman michel and one broke?

[faint linden]

Common ChiGOAT W

[slow iris]

dupe gros michel

[limber nova]

One Cavendish vs 10 gros boi who win

[lone tendon]

does cavendish get time to prepare?

[limber nova]

This isn’t Batman vs the Justice League!

[slow iris]

one of those runs again huh

[neon hollow]

My husbands playing, I told him to pop an invis when he had a micheal. Micheal 1 died and Micheal 2 survived, cavendish showed up immediately

[limber nova]

Assume the player has already made it to ante 7 with at least one hand leveled up to level 15 minimum

[faint linden]

Tell him to put Cavendish on the right

[neon hollow]

He did, the cavendish on the left was just for the sake of egg screenshot

[limber nova]

[faint linden]

Good

[dim thicket]

i got c++ the other day woohoooo

[faint linden]

Way to go!

[neon hollow]

LETS GOO

[dim thicket]

tyyyy ^w^

last joker i had to get was hit the road lmao

[lunar zealot]

fucking christ

[neon hollow]

Awh, lucky. I got hit the road gold seal with it being debuffed 😭

[lunar zealot]

barely made it

campfire genuinely saved the run

[neon hollow]

Held onto it just for the seal

[dim thicket]

damnnn 😭

[neon hollow]

ow

[lunar zealot]

let it be known just how much i dislike supernova

[neon hollow]

All i got left is stuntman

[wintry ice]

fork found in kitchen

[dim thicket]

i had a run end on ante 8 bc i missed input a hand and lost by 28 chips ;w;

was quite angry

[dim thicket]

damn that's actually not a bad one to have

good ass joker imo

tho it being rare is kinda annoying,,

[neon hollow]

I just cant figure him out. I don’t even got a white seal on this bastard

[worthy tinsel]

dang

[dim thicket]

stuntman is REALLY good on high card or pair builds so if you can get like super nova redcard green joker or smth good like that, just a bog standard gold stake run, stuntman can go crazy

[limber nova]

Ahoy spongeboy-me-bob, i wiffed a nair against luigi and am now about to receive a 900% damage zero-death! Agagagagagag

[dim thicket]

that damn plunger,,

[limber nova]

Smash Bros luigi is a whole beast in and of himself

[lost vault]

goals >.<

[dim thicket]

indeed he is,, play smash semi competitvley and every time i see him i hit the higaruma face palm,, but that's a discussion for another day lol

[limber nova]

I played online casually for a while.
Guess who i main…

No, it’s not Fox, it’s Falco. Lmao

[dim thicket]

lmaooo

[limber nova]

Falco’s D-air is just infinitely better than Fox’s

[rough moth]

ez

[limber nova]

(It’s also the perfect “fuck you” to anyone with horizontal recoveries like Pikachu lmao)

But back to balalalalala

[lost vault]

hands off my ka

[smoky niche]

0 bloodstone hits on ante 1 big blind 🔥 🔥 🔥

[dim thicket]

thats my goat right there 🔥

would expect nothing less from her

[limber nova]

[edgy stone]

Unlucky. It will hit 5 times next hand if you survive

[smoky niche]

my goat bloodstone with the 3% chance

[smoky niche]

a lucky 3oak saved it

[dim thicket]

literally put bloodstone in it's own dedicated tier with spaceman and to do list in my tier list bc of how hit or iss it is lmoa

girl is more inconsistent then rotten milk

[edgy stone]

But Spaceman and To do list cannot kill you, Bloodstone does

[dim thicket]

this true

they do still piss me off tho lol

[worthy tinsel]

a

chicot

[frozen tendon]

why do you have

shortcut? i forgot the name 💀

[edgy stone]

Playing bloodstone mean only 1/8 chance x1.5 with 4 suits deck. It's definitely gambling

[worthy tinsel]

bc I want straight flushes AJ

[frozen tendon]

where did you get 1/8 from

i always do this shop one on this deck

[edgy stone]

4 hands play. With 2 discard you only get 2 heart flush if lucky. Otherwise only 1.

[frozen tendon]

well, usually you want a big hand with bloodstone

flushes aren't as consistent cuz they scale like shi

so 4 hands 2 discards to find a flush five/flush house realistically

[errant brook]

Do you guys think I should Ankh the Trib and hope to find Sock again?

[terse vale]

immolate

[errant brook]

Debated Aura on King of Hearts

[terse vale]

enough score won’t be a problem

[edgy stone]

Yeah it's gambling.

[limber nova]

I would ankh the egg for luck

[terse vale]

the problem is gonna be getting the cards

[limber nova]

[frozen tendon]

i mean you could. i'd immolate like he said

[errant brook]

Only lost 1 king in the immolate

[terse vale]

didnt mean to reply oops

sorrreee

[terse vale]

net pos I bet

[tiny canyon]

Do you guys think the early double hex is worth it? I can probably sacrifice rocket, even if the econ would be great.

[frozen tendon]

what are you playing

[stoic isle]

calatro

[tiny canyon]

...Ghost deck blue stake???

[frozen tendon]

i don't like getting rid of econ personally but on blue stake you should be fine

i meant like hands

[limber nova]

Talabro

[tiny canyon]

I dont have a hand yet but probably pairs since I have stuntman

[flat tiger]

why does stuntman come with such a huge downside

[frozen tendon]

hex isn't worth it realistically though

[tiny canyon]

Lots of chips. Lots of chips.

[frozen tendon]

1.5x for jokers you might get rid of

and yeah, stuntman is good but i hate it idk

[flat tiger]

i mean its nice for manybe ante 1-4, its not even that much after that

[edgy stone]

Sell Onyx, Rocket is much better

[tiny canyon]

Yeah fair. Scoring is just tight, onyx is kinda forced and doesnt synergize well

[frozen tendon]

good boy

[tiny canyon]

Now that I read my original question, I definitely should've clarified that I thought that was also a good option :/

alright doing that

This is such a weird run already...

[frozen tendon]

looks like an easy win to me

[tiny canyon]

Its not bad, its just never at all what I play

[feral needle]

you're getting like 3.25x mult from 3 polychromes

[edgy stone]

Gg, you already win

[tiny canyon]

I just dont know if green can keep up

if I win too fast, then it cant scale

[frozen tendon]

that's true

[edgy stone]

Move green to the most right if you wanna feed it

[neon hollow]

Yeah, the big issue is just that I don’t do high card or pair often. I do flush, four of a kind, and flush five builds

[tiny canyon]

Thats what im doing

I also got hologram just to make it even easier....

[dim thicket]

mmmm that makes sense why you're struggling then -3-

[tiny canyon]

temptaton... aughh

ok, i should stop posting my run here, itll get spammy

whenever i come here its so tempted to constantly update though

[feral needle]

just ignore banana this time tbh

[frozen tendon]

you're playing pairs/high card, right?

[tiny canyon]

its worse than spinning the wheel of fortune...

[frozen tendon]

and ya, you don't need banana

[tiny canyon]

I know I don't need it

I'm just tempted because
banana

[frozen tendon]

i love spending $3 on a wheel of fortune on gold stake

[edgy stone]

Yeah foil is really good

[crude apex]

Why yes I do love getting x0.5 mult per blind for doing nothing actually

[tiny canyon]

Hologram is my favorite joker, it gives me a reason to do stuff I usually dont like using the Familiar spectral, but doesnt prevent deck thinning

[fringe nebula]

when you have max interest right?

right?

[frozen tendon]

well, either max interest or down bad, it depends on the run.

[crude apex]

I'm feeding it with both a cert and a stone joker right now and it is going insane

[slow iris]

big green joker

had to take hieroglyph because Violent Vessel

[frozen tendon]

hmm...

[slow iris]

hieroglyph clutch

[humble gulch]

Uh...

[slow iris]

both rentals

yikes

[edgy stone]

How could u do that without buglar?

[frozen tendon]

do i buy?

[humble gulch]

Had to take it

[frozen tendon]

will it benefit a straight build

[slow iris]

play a lot of hands

also hand vouchers

and hieroglyph

[frozen tendon]

i woulda been greedy and kept delayed haha

[slow iris]

investment tag clutch

[frozen tendon]

nvm ante 3 i see

[humble gulch]

All problems are solved now

[edgy stone]

Black deck is the only deck I must skip tag for money

[feral needle]

Aside from the "play a lot of hands" advice, Green Joker does NOT lock you out of discarding

[frozen tendon]

why he lowkey callin my name rn

i need mult

[feral needle]

People really are too scared to discard with it, and while early this makes a lot of sense (You'll need the mult to score), later on the loss of 1 or 2 mult becomes really insignificant later on

I've paired Green Joker and Burnt Joker on Gold Stake and won

[humble gulch]

Yeahh...

[slow iris]

if only parei wasn't eternal

[feral needle]

i'd still take it

4 dollar profit each round

...maybe not the most effective combo but you could use that money for planets

[humble gulch]

Choose your difficulty

[edgy stone]

The trio, 4$ selling

[humble gulch]

Lets die

Hmm

[median grove]

are mult or chip enhancements better on facecards?

if im playing two pair / 3oak / 4oak

and with red seal

[marsh tartan]

anyone have tips for green stake on literal any deck i just feel like I cant get far enough w it very appreciated 👀

[humble gulch]

Doesn't matter

[median grove]

why because glass and steel are better than both?

or because theyre equal

[humble gulch]

Because it doesn't matter where you put your enhancements

[crude apex]

I'm dead but at least the holo got big and beefy

[feral needle]

what matters for enhancements is that they score in the first place

[median grove]

oh i see

but what is the better enhancement, mult or chips?

thats what im asking

between the two

[frozen tendon]

do you guys like square joker?

[humble gulch]

Well, it doesn't matter if it's a face card or not and it depends on if you need chips or mult

[humble gulch]

Square joker carry

[median grove]

hmmm

[marsh tartan]

two pair my garbage goat

[median grove]

i wish i could replay last hand, i dont know what i need lol

[stoic isle]

pants

[crude apex]

I like that it can scale with any four cards and not just scoring cards, but I have trouble scaling it anywhere outside of plasma deck

[feral needle]

according to balatro calculator, a full-mult straight scores 1200 at level 1, a full-chip straight scores 800

so maybe mult is better

but it does depend on what you need

flat mult falls off the more of it you have

[median grove]

im playing face cards, not straight

so i dont really know

[feral needle]

chip doesn't particularly care about when you score it

[median grove]

somewhere between two pair / 3oak / 4oak

[frozen tendon]

okay so someone help me here

sell chad take vaga?

[fringe nebula]

keep chad

[humble gulch]

We're hitting the road

[fringe nebula]

vagabond chad is a really strong combo

[frozen tendon]

i want green joker but i'm ante 5. think it is too late

[fringe nebula]

depends on how early you are in the

oh

[crude apex]

Vagabond+green joker my beloved crack pairing

[median grove]

does 3oak / 4oak have a preference for chips or mult?

[lunar zealot]

ante 2 round 6

[median grove]

or does it depend

[lunar zealot]

score of 291

[frozen tendon]

so with that being said, what are you thinking?

[humble gulch]

I'm just fine

[fringe nebula]

too late

[frozen tendon]

for green?

[fringe nebula]

for vaga

[frozen tendon]

hm okay. i feel like my jokers are solid but i'm not getting stronger

so i am a little lost on what to do atm lol

i don't think an X mult really saves me unless i'm underestimating my score

[feral needle]

Looks like both of those hands scale up each as strongly, looking at the planets for the respective poker hand

[median grove]

but i guess glass is better long term anyway

or maybe lucky

[feral needle]

for the most part you aren't gonna get to choose which enhancement you get anyway

and it will depend on what you're building with your jokers to change the outcome

this is JUST the enhancements

an enhanced card that scores when played is always worth more than one that doesn't

unless it's a lucky card

that one can be worth something or nothing at all

[median grove]

is black deck really hard?

or is it just me

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[median grove]

the - 1 hands thing is so difficult

gah

[feral needle]

black deck is considered the hardest in the game IIRC

[median grove]

i keep losing even with really good jokers!

okay thats a relief i guess

ive lost so many good runs so far

[smoky niche]

me when i build up a pile of double tags with anaglyph but dont hit a single negative tag

[humble gulch]

That standard tag looks yummy

[limber nova]

FYCK black

[smoky niche]

final two tags were voucher and riffraff lmao

[humble gulch]

14 free common jokers

Free win

[smoky niche]

now i just have the easiest deck and erratic left for c+ ig

[smoky niche]

they should let this overflow 🙏

let me gold sticker sly joker

[humble gulch]

The easiest deck is obviously yellow

[smoky niche]

is it

i guess

[rich mauve]

this is bait

[marsh tartan]

anyone have any green stake tips 👀
(im newer have mercy)

[humble gulch]

Pass

[smoky niche]

who needs midas mask

screw your vamp

[rich mauve]

I do

[humble gulch]

Just win, green is not that hard

Try to oneshot blinds

[rich mauve]

midas isn't gold stickered yet

[humble gulch]

Or get an external source of money

[smoky niche]

oh true

this looks like a pretty easy win

you got this in the bad

bag

[fringe nebula]

money

[rich mauve]

surely I won't fumble

[marsh tartan]

i see

[smoky niche]

just put the fries in the bag and two pair in the hand

[marsh tartan]

so basically its just a skill issue

[fringe nebula]

green stake is 100% winrate doable so yes

[humble gulch]

50/50

I guess you end up being used to interest

[frozen tendon]

idek if i can win but sholld i not just double skip?

[fringe nebula]

it is a knowledge/skill issue

[heavy heron]

well… talk about a perfect hand

[fringe nebula]

steel

[smoky niche]

is this enough mult

[heavy heron]

set up glass ✅ throw it away until it matters ✅

[heavy heron]

steel

[fringe nebula]

i love red seal steel on 8 ante run

[smoky niche]

how do you have -10 dollars
