his goal was to have more variety for what jokers and poker hands are being picked and played. endless was more of bug fixes that's been publicly confirmed. as for ante 8 stuff, he wants more overall joker uses to make a roguelike like this thrive better long term which requires ante 8 specific interactions. not influenced with the 5% of jokers that work in deep endless.

hmm
yeah
Jokers I was wrong about: Green Joker, Burglar and Square Joker
Jokers I still fucking despise: Obelisk
serpent and the crimson bean/dupe chicot bug has to go and will definitely go
Idek whats the solution to the "lack of variety" problem because pairs can't be changed without becoming too bad or too good and there are still problems with blue stake (and red stake too imo)
cause well it would suck if you were to just have the current game patch be the last form of balatro
i liked my method of reworks albeit more for balance and less of player adaptability
but imo having some jokers (basically) only work in deep endless isnt such a bad thing
cause idk how ppl would feel about playing black deck with twice the amount of discards
I dont like black deck
it's fine if that's left unchanged, he's just not using it to influence his proposed changes
yea
It really isn't. And I think gutting endless and naneinf doesn't really solve anything.
i like some imbalance in my game
Exactly
square joker forced to retire
Tuff
wdym
wdym by "gutting naneinf/endless"
naneinf shouldn't be something you get every 5 runs in the first place
if you're talking about the changes that are happening to serpent/bean/... then i fully support those changes
Correct
Thunk will remove most naneinf methods and he's going to make the game be more focused on ante 8
is that a bad thing?
Dont forget, there will be a 3rd banana
Who gets it every 5 runs
for example serpent definitely needs to change
Yes imo cuz I think endless has its fun
most of them being bugs, exploits and unintended interactions
we are not keeping serpent as is
sure and i do too
Why not
i am an endless player after all i love endless
drspectred did some voucher rng calculations proportional to seeds playable in white stake plasma in this 6 hour long naneinf tutorial video
serpent as of now is more a buff than a nerf
Unintended? I suppose that's hand size stacking what you are talking about right?
because every other naneinf factor that isn't vouchers can be obtainable via econ
Only in naninf scenarios
fighting serpent is easier than fighting a normal boss blind
Dr spectred also said in his pair video that pair should not be nerfed just cuz some guy found a way to win every game
in (almost) every single scenario
lmao no
What's better? This game or eating horseradish
What's the worst boss blind
truth
when is that lol
what does this have to do with the current conversation
violet
Eating horseradish cuz that doesnt contain a fucking needle
Worst in terms of what?
Same principle. Just cus some guy can naneinf every 5th run doesn't mean you should remove it for everyone. 99% of people are not doing that.
this game
you can't just say "lmao no" without giving counterpoint
Not :needle: ?
a1: manacle
a2: wall
a8: vv
Or water
Ya gave me a idea. I'll eat horseradish while playing balatro!!!!
ye, but not like the voucher way
What about flint
the former was never intended, the latter is fine as represented with ante 8
There's a voucher way? I thought it was cola spam + ecto and ankh
flint can be annoying in higher antes depending on your build
so it's up there
buy painter om
Imo i prefer vessel as opposed to cerulean bell selecting that stupid exact steel card while on a flush build
usually naneinf have like 20+ handsize
flint sometimes does jackshit and sometimes nukes you
and only bugs/exploits can make 20+ handsize
you're ignoring the majority of boss blinds and jokers while playing endless. you know, the two main concepts of playing balatro 😐
no
like crimson with Bean
Worst as in shouldnt even be considered a boss blind: Serpent
Worst to deal with: Violet, Needle or in my case Psychic cuz the boss is so mediocre I forget it's a thing and lose the round cuz I forgot
so pair lobotomy is more accepted since you're actually playing more of the game
Hey at least
and other debuff guys are obious
Not intended sure, but it was a happy accident
What do yall think the unlock for next banana will be?
Potasium
chicot lets you ignore all boss blinds and having good jokers lets you ignore most jokers
get the banana kris
destroy Cavendish 
Not really? Like you'll still do a normal run to test jokers and naneinf in the community is seen as something you do after you've done everything in the game anyways.
And then there's another banana where you had to deatroy that banana
we strive to get an update that introduces more joker decisions
no?
what
kris is going on a Sisyphean adventure
endless is just another mode of balatro (if you can call it a mode)
And endless is good to see the full potential of your jokers and build that you couldn't see in 8 antes.
you play it for fun
I assure you ppl doing naneinf haven't done everything in the game
does castle only pick suits in your deck or does it pick one of the 4 suits unconditionally?
okay i think were getting offtrack
deck
thanks
and naneinf consists of like 3 total methods
Gros michel 1/6 -> cavendish 1/1000 -> the new banana 1/100000 -> yet another banana 1/naninf
technically
that are "consistent"
only ancient is all 4 suits
hthere are a few more than 3
compared to a8 runs that have varying combinations
yeah that's what made me doubt
but yeah its fairly consistent
Ancient jobkler or bloodstone
aj is more consistent, but can be countered a lot easier than bloodstone
bloodstone can be really shitty or just on your side sometimes
usually 1
dude idk 😭
its always a variant of baron mime
if naneinf has more joker tools and boss blind acknowledgement than ante 8 gold stake, then sure localthunk could focus on endless as a form of bringing more variety into the game, resulting in fresh content. that isn't the case the game currently represents
yeah, that's where the every 5 runs comes from
yeah
is it actually 1 in 5 runs
No shot right?
eheheehhehehehehe
tbf everything needs to come at the right time
Ive never had that thing break on me

knows
I wonder if there will be a new joker that will be unlocked if you beat a final boss blind on ante 7
keep wondering
it would be a cool achievement
defeat the final boss twice
if he focused on endless content as it currently is, it would bring harm in the long term from burnout as you're given little to work with and a longer required screen time to make something show up based on luck and not skill.
take other roguelikes for example. sts2 has this formula perfected to a tee in terms of variety elements it showcases after the already good first game
Isn't the big major bossblinds in ante 8
it's approximately 1 in 5
what if endless was instead "lets stuff all the blinds with boss blinds" instead of big number go bigger
Yes but if you use a hieroglyph on ante 8 it will be on ante 7
damn
if you take hiero/petro glyphs on ante 8 the boss blinds can be fought on ante 7
i must fucking suck then
I hope he doesn't remove endless naneinf and endless gameplay entirely. Naneinf is fun for big numbers and endless is fun to see the limits of your build you made in the first 8 antes.
you could in theory get hieroglyph and petroglyph in ante 8
he isnt removing endless
ante 6
the metric is for white stake plasma baron mime serpent burglar naneinf
lowering the ante twice and allowing you to beat the final boss three times
huge
Or a joker that will be unlocked for reaching ante 0
gaming
you could do it twice, ante 6 and 8
he's not removing it, he's just removing the three most common methods/bugs
But why
clown on them john
thats also true, you could get like a voucher skip
because the boss blind is fixed on the finisher bosses
unless you reroll
then it wouldnt be the finisher boss blinds and be the regular ones instead
Speaking of which
How big was violet vessel on plasma deck, gold stake
2.4m
2.4m iirc
no i mean like get to ante 8, hiero, beat boss, get to ante 8 again, petro, beat boss, get to ante 8 again, beat boss
yeah
2.4 mil
Guh daym
Achievement for using Hermit while you are in debt would be funny
but you could also do it twice
unseeded too (ofc)
ante 6 finisher boss blind, violet vessel probably stinks a lot more
Im imagining getting 5 emperor chain in a row
We'll see when the update happens but I think removing all naneinf methods is not good cuz again it has its appeal
3 ≠ all
fixing the common naneinf bugs/methods will just be better for the game
Thats a good one
Would be a cool way to unlock a joker "Mitosis"
hes still keeping the perkeo cryptid. breh
Id like to see the new jokers tho
well probably not because you have the resources needed to get to ante 8 and youre using those to hit an ante 6 vessel, which is way lower
fair
yeah
Fuck, minecraft live is during the time I am having dinner
"killing" naneinf is just a byproduct of bug-patching and qol reworking
you know what im gonna try that
ppl will gladly trade 3 naneinf methods for more jokers, joker variety, and different boss blinds. u can do a hypothetical poll, it'll be clear what ppl will prefer in the long term
thats fine, its at 5 fucking ay em for me
if you do find a seed please share 😭🙏
1pm ET is so fucking inconvenient btw
real
You'd think that the office located in Sweden wouldnt hold the minecraft live during the usual dinnertime of europe
Ye I know some of the bugs like bean shouldn't exist. This is purely my opinion but I actually think having SOME glitches or exploits is cool, I am a Pokemon fan and the Gen 1 games are famous for those
Some bugs should be kept in
Cough cough anti ragdoll glitch in gta 5
cough cough
well we need something to eat dinner to
games shouldnt be completely bug free imo
yes
I understand that but I reckon it'd be quite impolite to have my phone at the dinnertable
discord having the bar for the new day always gets me
Least buggy game is wii party btw
no game is completely bug free
oh yeah true
now that i think about it i rarely do that if ever
if u can deal with the faulty remote sensors lol
no lol
It only has 1 bug and that was a crash that is only on the official console
And somehow it is something you wont even find in a regular match
it just seems so bug-ish
seems like it yeah
seems intentional, i dont see what could go wrong
+6 Hands
but its not!
even the hand number stops wiggling when its double digits
Pong?
that's intended since "on activation" jokers are copy compatible (hallu, cart, vaga, perkeo, etc)
everytime i get parking i swear i find the hook
hm
Balatro has rigged rng
real 😭
I wonder how much sell price yall ever gotten an
to
the paddles couldn't reach the top of the screen, which leaves open to a couple of tricks to score on top of that screen
67
how the fuck did you know this off the top of your head
research
Highest I got was 80
i had one at 100 bucks
got a nat neg swash that round
Best is only 17 😭
egg is usually a temporary joker so thats valid
I never actually used egg for too much
30 with gift
and then i found Blueprint
Nothing is a temporary joker until balatro's bullshit rng fucks it up
Especially when chad is right there in shop
Swashbuckler and egg is overated
Obelisk is overrated
True
most recent memory
Eternal jonklers . . .
Wild
overrated
looks inside
the wide community hates it
Sometimes I lurk on the balatro subreddit and I see people make jokers that remove stickers like perishable, rental and eternal
And I think that most of the community cant see that those arent always bad things
But honestly eternal makes something like ankh usable
HOLLYY
Especially when you get blueprint external
Rental is good for Vagabond
Idk about perishables tho
Imo they just a debuff
a lot of players prefer complaining about stickers instead of learning to deal with scarcity
it kinda is just a debuff atm
Perishables can be good on nat negatives with vrrdant
it could've been higher but I wouldve died to flint otherwise
Rental makes it dirt cheap to get
Like you aint relying on the joker and you can just sell it
Today Ive got two blueprints and one brainstorm... All perishible
like burglar and invis, or anything that shows some form of downside
just sellable nag negs in general counters verdant
not necessarily perisablr
im bottom decking my gold seals
Sell luchador on verdant leaf?
or keep it for free sticker
Im planning on c++ing a new save file instead of just completing every deck on gold stake
Ehat happens
funny way to double negate the boss blind
Well not planning just actively doing
Black deck seems like the bane of my existence
Green deck also seems like shit
To c++
Expecting something like how chicots work silly with the manacle
Again*
what would un-debuffing twice do
buff your cards?
Hold on
Do i have to hold on to chicot through the boss blind
Or can i just sell it after it does it's thing
Knowing balatro u can sell it
you can sell it during the boss blind
Cuz thats how pareidolia works on that one boss blind
Ur cards stay debuffed
ah yes lets just remove stickers so we dont have to deal with 3 of the stake effects
💀
I found that out the hard way
probably not that hot of a take but stickers are my favorite stake effects in general
I never used paredolia ngl
Ikr
I mean for collection i got it but sell after realizing it's not too good
It can be good with midas mask + golden ticket/vampire
i used to love it at the start because i had no clue deck fixing was a thing
parei it really only good for a scuffed econ build ig
Yeah deck fixing is something everyone needs to learn
very rarely it helps with scoring
I wonder how would it be if variants like polychrome triggers when the joker is triggered instead of at last
parei is decent for like parking and business and stuff
Pareidolia is an econ joker
Lemme guess
You hate idol before you know deck fixing
lets go my drunkard is more expensive with polychrome
But the thing is, the effect is so not basic it cant be a common
never played with idol until i knew about deck fixing
Do yall also forget some rarities of jokers
as a tarots enthusiast i still hate idol with a passion
nope
I do, I forget that Hiker is an uncommon and runner is common
on the occasions my brain blanks out then yes
Wish there's an achievement for
to survive 6+ rounds
What are the chances of a judgement giving you a jimbo?
A judgement giving you a flash card?
A judgement giving you a hit the road?
Assume all jokers are unlocked, including the enhancement-unlocked ones
And assume you have no jokers either in the shop or in your joker tray
why hit the road
bcs its rare
It's a common, an uncommon and a rare
oh ic
No reason to pick those specific ones, just the first ones I thought of
i forget the odds but i swear its like 75% commons 20% uncommons 5% rares
0.2% legendaries
I feel like Runner is underrated
Is it?
Yes
1 in 22 3 times in a row
Btw
All of those fools are blank
That's 1 in 10k though
(1/22)³ = 1/10648
how tf have you not used a consumable its ante 3
I'm a fool
Could have been a fool last used
Every seed is beatable no?
who uses a fool and then sells the card made 😭
Idk maybe fortune teller with a planet card
Maybe to clear out consumable slots
Ecto or nah
im sorry but there too many dumb plays to make using the fool and then selling the consumable a reason
I had to sell for Verdant by the way 😂
maybe not this early
I had a Chad but just sold. Definitely trying to fix the deck and find baron
I wonder how many jokers localthunk is going to add
What do i do
It would take a while considering making an actual balanced joker isnt easy
Scrap everything else leave photochad and ecto
Or scrap EVERYTHING and ankh brainstorm
One time I sold all my jokers so that I could afford a blueprint and a brainstorm in the same shop. I died.
Red seal a Chariot or Gold king?
The Humble Credit Card In The Buffoon Pack:
Chariot
Depends on ante
9
If u hace baron then gold if not then steel
No baron yet 😢 ty
gold over chair
Idk
Hmm
What I would do (dont recommend) sell anything but brainstorm ankh it and use money to get more jokers back
They got like 60 bucks if they sell everything
depends where they are in the reroll as well and whats in the shop currently
safest bet would be to get a purple seal
would a legendary joker that gains 1 xmult for every $10 be overpowered
yeah
guys should i sell the blueprint for something
for dusk
Dusk probably
HOW THE FUCK DID I BOTTOM DECK ALL MY REBATE CARDS
dunno what to do here
Kill ancient
idk whats the perkeo for
my deck is so built for ancient tho 💔
not much really
depends on deck as well
perkeo is almost always good, you can do a lot with him
perkeo goes
perkeo is so temporary
infinite money, infinite planets, infinite x enhanced cards
unless you are going for ante 39 its only use is deck fixing essentially
is the invis here woth it
no
why would you sell dusk though
lol, I was trying to roll down for a chance at wraith
ig no need then xP
dusk doubles the score
17 bucks a reroll holy
dusk retriggers all on last hand yea?
yeah
tbh i find it kinda hard to use dusk, if i'm getting down to my last hand my run is probably not going well
im stupid 🤦♂️
it could also be a way to proc more 8s for the 8ball
squeeze out every hand
Time to pray
I mean yeah but there's stuff like seltzer, sock & chad if you want retriggers
win or win
gl
Got it
wow
what if you dont though, its safer having a definite retrigger
And now we win!
also seltzer is so temporary
Depends on when you get it
ig but
retrigger is retrigger
Yayyyyyyyy what do I drop now
Bro is new and asking for help bro
Also depends if your goal is "I just want to beat ante 8" or "I want to get to as high of an ante as I can"
chad
just dont forget 
That's a funny joker from a judgement lol
Still no directors cut lol I might be coooooked
if you do get seltzer and a mostly fixed deck, you could blind skip for ante 8 runs
Yeah exactly
but if you do have a build like that you probably wanna go deep into endles
A mid-late seltzer can win runs easily if you have good stuff for it
Do I still copy mime?
copy mime at the end
but you wanna balance score and retriggers
this would be better than ancient right
less goo
sock for photo
imo yes
Especially if you got lots of faces
lets go retriggers
tons
if you already have an aj build you want something to retrigger all of them
It’s crazy how I can score either 2300 or e13. I need to fix my fuckin deck 😂
MY MAN
i should not be playing balatro while sleep deprived this was the dumbest decision ever
i said to swap photo for sock
idk what you did but you dont seem too happy wihti t
for some reason i thought "2x more than 1.5x" glossing over the fact that one scores on every card and one doesnt
I did not see that i simply saw the other "imo yes"
gl saving the run
i cant even score 5 mil and I need 21 mil
eyes emoji
I WAS scoring 900 mil
womp womp
sock would have been better than photo
monkey brain saw photochad and went HEHE YAAAYYYY
high score run too
oh well
I DID finally get flush 5 planet card with this run tho
i mean fair enough
I needed that to complete my collection
photochad is something to draw your eyes to
I should probably take it?
was that proper english what i just said
now I just need to buy astronomer and unlock double vision or whatever its called
i end up saying shit that doesnt make sense'
depends on your deck
20 kings, 5 sixes, 3 other cards
flush joker buy here trust
7 red seals
crafty joker 🔥
crafty my forever goat
fr fr
ohio impressed
its probably better than carto
wtf was this run
it was so dead i took a random wraith got blueprint, then i get an ecto then trib
egg
egg 🔥
im bottom decking my purple seals again
i dont see how they help to deck fix if i cant find them
goofy ahh run
holographic crafty carried
Perfect boss to get value out of DNA and death :D
run woulda died without it
exactly
fantastic four
fire
fantastic 3 and the ambitious 1
(who is brainstorm of course)
MY MONIS 
i mean
you could win with a pair
you probably could
if you got trib yeah
fair
get cola first
ya
Thank you showman
Couldn’t find ecto RIP
why the fuck am i bottom decking my purple seals wtf
I wonder why triboulet looks angy
all the money wasted 😭
negative rough gem looks awesome :0

i took parking over stuntman on plasma
this is what happens when you are sleep deprived
I should prob find ecto before copy hunting
showman ig
keep farming that money
get more red seals
should i use blueprint on spare trouser or blue joker?
trouser
Def blue joker
wait im stupid
mmm interesting
yeha blue joker
alr ty
yoric
lol
blue joker is my only chip joker rn too
yeah so you gotta prioritise that
one for me, one for you
double chip or 7tuple mult
but i lost anyway :p
you're sorted on mult
like
cheers
lol
HOW DID YOU LOSE WITH YORICK BLUEPRINT ARE YOU KIDDING RAHHHHHHHHHHHH
idk
ante?

i just started playing lol
what ante was it
11
I hate Bloodstone
how far did yu get
oh yeah thats valid
couldve been an easy 13 if that blueprint hit Yorick me sad
i was doing 2 pairs setup but on my last hand i had only 1 pair
hii
oh fair
i won with bloodstone oops
what deck do i gotta win with to unlock plasma? the black deck?
yeah cause its bloodstone oops, not bloodstone
If your xMult is above x2, it's never worth it to copy +chips or +mult with blueprint
blue stake
oh alr
it was a joke
no way yorick wasnt copied
imagine if the yorick wasnt copied
im struggling to do so
It's a lil more tricky if you got brainstorm tho
brainstorm screws you over if you need +mult joker
Yeah
Tf ?
chipsmaxxing
I hate Bloodstone
Why
its bad
Care to explain yourself
hack when
it works when its not needed and doesnt work when it is needed
huge skill issues
Just mix it with a S&B , oops all 6s
never
Unless you have a joker that gives +mult on cards, like smiley!
Then you can have +mult and still copy xMult with brainstorm!
i won before then
thats the thing
bloodstone and oops is fine
bloodstone sucks
needing another uncommon joker to make your joker work means your joker is trash
fax
interesting run
buffon or jumbo bufon
Nvm
Keep you'r money
om
jumbo 🤔
worth
ps do not be me
save your cash
this message is totally not my way of saying i get all the mail-ins
Remember kids, you should always gamble /j
idk what y'all talking abt
I said that cuz yk you'r on lvl 1 you can survive all ant and keep earning interest
wow
average bloodstone user
pass
Sell green joker
sell gronkler if your planet levels are high enough
depends how good grimbo is
h card at lvl 5
also don't open packs when you're broke
27+ mult
its green deck
why'd you pick up photochad if you're using hc
well yeah, but planets also matter
Ikrrrr
true
Lemme play balala too hold on
Hey guys look at my modded balatro run on mobile is my run good?
me when #📜・modding-rules
Oh sorry didn't see that
I might be overthinking. But am I good just to hit a high card? Is there an easier way to reshuffle blindly? I don’t want to reroll once into Plant.
you probably sohuld do the joker select thing
reroll 🤔
What’s that I eat crayons
also why are you broke
Forever searching for death 😂
I can only reroll once and I am scared for Plant
you dont need to hard reroll for a death
lol
plant doesnt work
its a finisher boss blind
goat vs garbage
you cant get a plant...
Wait I can’t reroll into plant?
i didnt see plasma
no
violet vessel is a boss blind
antes 8, 16, 24 and 32 you cant
Oh thank jeebus
its ante 16
wtf why are thems the rules 😂
t
I just got the perkio daddy
if its ante 16 you cant tho
I’m like wtf are these words bro
violet vessel here
hey
Run potential?
This is my best unseeded run and I’m trying to contain my excitement at work
so.. Is it too late to do this?
weird.
sixth sense?
ye
No I keep resting until I find a skip tag with a soul card
well you used a good chunk of dna so...
all (most) seeded runs were unseeded once
hmm
aight the nat neg trib and perkeo is unseeded
i naneinfed with flush five
I hate Bloodstone
sixth sense is pretty bad here
I nanenifed with high card
We get it bro
we all did 🔥
WE SAFE BOYS
high card is such a bad hand how did you naneinf with it
run is kind of dead beceause of the lack of money but...
ante 17 $10 dollars its over lmao
How so I’m new lol
Keep farming Cryptid with perkio
I can copy mime for gold
you need ataleast 2k bucks at this stage
rerolling for jokers when you need it
What do I still need? Ugh
cause the second you have an open joker slot, you pretty much want to get it filled with a copy almost immediately
Oh like with ecto
The family have gathered again ahh picture 🥀🥀
and antimatter yeah
another copier, burglar, and about 50 more cards in your deck
Ts ain't working
you only need 44 cards to naneinf
Good to know. This is still my highest score so I’m happy to be learning lol
with 4 copies
Yall are monsters in this game I don’t get it 😂
yeah but to get those cards you need to discard another 20 in serpent
oh wait
thats true
so 64.
and you need to play through 20 hands of serpent
learning w
there's no exact number needed but since you're generally using dna to generate steels and won't be able to convert all your gold cards
you usually end up having over 100 cards by the end
pretty high chance you'll have atleast 40 cards steel
how do i do naneinf with serpent without killing the blind/surviving finisher boss
ante 3 overstock is huge
ante 26
I guess I’ll try to hit as many mime golds for now
bro i was so close
i mean technicaly you could do it earlier
died to ante 24 bc no paint no brainstorm
without killing any finisher boss? reroll for perkeo, get cryptid in your comsumables, get very lucky with jokers and find a red seal steel king all before ante 8 boss
i meant that so i can survive the finisher guy and keep rolling for serpent to survive
perkeo too rare 🥹
truth
im having a hard time figuring out what to do when my plasma deck hits purple stak
do stone build
i won gold with that
YAAASSS
isit just stone tarot and call it a day
money :3
nice
oh you did take sixth sense
marble joket and stone joker
really lucky nice
wee works too
Thank you 6th sense
damn, needs luck
i mean dont pop it now
Always trust your sixth sense
Yeah, ik
When do I pop it? Should I look for showman and BP/BS and then use it?
according to my primitive calcs i need around 700 chips to comfortably clear non-violet showdown in 4 hands
probably pop once you do find a showman
runner can work
and find 2 copies
Hello there, Jimbo
im starting to see how good runner is after some usage with it
they arent wrong that guy is goated as hell
get something useful like dna, troubador, showman -> bp/bs, and you can use it
-# (obviously don't hit DNA/troub/showman/6sense but everything else is good)
I was gonna ask if I should try looking for a bean, since it's ante 16.. but I have no reroll vouchers ;v;
guys did i shoot the moon
no bean is too short termm
Bean bug
me when i don't know about bean glitch
x3
Well that was fun while it lasted lol
evil hook/physic/plant 😂
have +handsize joker (mainly Bean because it gives the most)
fight Crimson Heart (only ante 8/16/24/32)
if/when boss debuffs your handsize joker, exit to main menu and go back in, then play hand
after debuff expires you get permanent hand size equal to whatever the handsize joker was giving at that moment
-# (permanent, as in for the rest of the run)
can happen multiple times in one blind
All roads lead to photochad
interesting
Hmm.. 3/5 odds..
if i only have 1 suit in my hand can it still change?
yes
pretty worth
unfortunately
damn thats sad
it's completely random suit other than not being the one it was on the previous round
very hard to get all the requirements but it's really strong if you can
i know, although checkered deck would be nuts if it didn't
my primitive calc is wrong because i forgot the score req is 2x
more like 900 chips
lol die
this already so hard
-# score = (chips+mult / 2)²
-# violet vessel is 1,200,000 on normal deck
-# 4 hands
(x/2)² ×4 ≥ 2,400,000
(x/2)² ≥ 600,000
x/2 ≥ 775
x ≥ 1550 score required per hand assuming 4 hands, by my math?
:D
ye
It's time now
ahead of pace
I hate Bloodstone
wdym violet is only 1.2 mil
lol i overestimated
ye i got math agreeing with yours
i thought so, on normal decks gold stake?
The very next reroll.. I gotta take cola, I got no boss reroll vouchers ;V;
awawa,,
i forgot how much score violet needs sometimes
you don't really need the showman
you don't want 5 copies
you want dna/rebate/colas for that last slot
Ah, that's fair
bull
runner shortcut gets there
no its blueprint because it can copy the egg and sell for the egg price trust
with a blue seal or 2
and then you add swashbuckler
"oh yes, lets get that x2 duo because its non-conditional mult" me on plasma deck 
what
takes shoot the moon ante 2 on abandoned
"damn, i bottom decked all my queens, must've just been unlucky"
"......oh"
traded a big fortune teller last minute for the burger because my fortune teller was already gold
that was close
lol bro's got no counterargument because he knows deep down egg can't copy blueprint
HHEHEHJBHJKHSBS
because it literally cant?
exactly
Party time!!
egg can copy blueprint
think about it
if you put blueprint all the way on the right
what the butt are you talking about
prosposterous, how can this be
blueprint is doing the same thing as egg
throwback as negative is so col
what a revelation from monk yeahitschips
i have been enlightened
yes
not ragebait, you just arent enlightened enough to see the vision
you'll understand when you're wiser
squid games
monis
he has yet to figureout how to copy blueprint with egg
wow
i shall learn his ways
Wow! Uranus!
holy sh is that the trio
u can do that after the hand is scored
yeah, ik, I can copy mime before the end of round to get both score and money
how
what is this wizardry
do u just swipe the thing mid scoring
Gold cards trigger at the end of round, so if you move baron out of the way before the hand scores, you'll get all mime copies and get lots of monis
here, have some fun
Okay, got one
not cool violet, not cool
that feeling when you're still new to balatro even though you've played ever since 2024
We go again!! xP
damn how the hell do you get THIS far in your runs?
am i missing something or am i just absolute ass at balatro
baron baron baron
mime
i dont get it.
Uhhh.. like 20+ attempts at naneinf using the general route for it lol
the uncommon joker clutch is UNREAL
ante 2 bluestorm >:)
lollll
baron is an absolute necessity if you want to get very far in your run
bull is so bulling
lol, thank you game
hey how far does an idol build usually take you
my god
folkk
the same as trib
trib
im thinking maybe ante 16
i meant like what ante
well sadly i barely win my games xd
hm
maybe more
well i barely win in my games too 🥹
ive gotten a mid trib build to 19 before so idk
so its prolly like ante 20
a16 is e20
around that yeah
heheehe
Well, winning is a completely different story, for that you just need to understand the things you need in the moment.
To win a non-plasma deck run, you need chips, flat mult, and Xmult.
Though the former two can also be achieved through upgrading poker hands.
To find all those required pieces though, you need money.
okay ive did some tinkering on the calculator, a great trib build (no insane nat negs and stuff) can reach like e78
prob even more
ah cool
Plasma deck???
i'm just going to assume it's the green deck unlock or
some kind of higher stakes i've barely reached
yes plasma deck
wait im fucking stupid
this one was on nebula deck lol
with plasma?
nice
yes
so you reaching a19 without plasma is pretty crazy
it happens i guess
ill see if i can find my screenshot of it to see if any of what i said is true
this happened a while ago lol
Item asylum mentioned
is spare trousers a decent joker
great joker
item asylum in the big 27 son 🤣
afaik it competes with baron mime pretty well for the most part but once you get to the point of using DNA, hand size jokers, Serpent, bean glitch, perkeo cryptid.. then it's no contest anymore
what would be the best deck in the game
correction: ante 18 on ghost deck i believe
its a seeded run but i had no knowledge of anything in the seed, the reason i said nebula is because my friend (who played this unseeded) was complaining his score wouldve been way high if he wasnt playing nebula lol
anyway
trib
depends on criteria
yeah the problem with idol when competing with baronmime is it's basically impossible to scale higher than like e93 without insane nat negs and stuff
cant get it to very high mult number 🤔
meanwhile baronmime has a ton of ways to obtain handsize
even if i pick up a nat negative Sock or something in my plasma
run, i'm playing baron mime lol
higher potential
try playing many 2pairs in a round
pants scale really fast
i tend to oneshot or not finding two pairs 💔
and some stuff like ramen just discourages me from digging in my card
yes
watch as you dont find any grim 💀
i fumbled this run so bad
its almost impossible to idol/trib naneinf without perkeo or bean bug, and at that point you could just use baron mime anyway lol
i keep forgetting that drivers license exist and not enhancing my card smh
what would perkeo do
observatory + erises?
copy ecto and ankh
what grim
yeah i guess
aces vs jokerless
chat, which one should I use /s
actually have anyone tried doing jokerless in a normal deck
Guys im new is splash counted as good?And whats good jockers
you skip
splash is mid
no its actually buns
why
splash basically has no use besides synergizing with some jokers like flower pot and stuff
it makes no sense
hmm but what are other good cards
i mean what is counted as good jocker
joker
and even then its not that good
depends lol
splash all face card joker with midas vamp 💀
ohhh so nothing is actually all time good?
situational
