[sly girder]

what?

[zinc sigil]

I like the giftcard

[sly girder]

green needle is not a joker

[wintry ice]

red card is good but

[sly girder]

gift card is cool

[wintry ice]

kinda boring

[sly girder]

true

one of the best jokers though

[ancient gyro]

the context clues aren't too hard idt

[zinc sigil]

Yuh just stonks all ur cards

[sly girder]

huge flat mult scaling

[wintry ice]

gift card is fun

[zinc sigil]

Stm no idea glassy no idea obelisk canio

[sly girder]

glass joker, obelisk, canio, and dataminer

i couldnt get stm

[wintry ice]

my least favorites are like

bloodstone and idol because i don't like chance based scoring

[ancient gyro]

dataminer

[sly girder]

shoot the moon

[zinc sigil]

SHOOT THE MOON

[sly girder]

checks out

my fault

[zinc sigil]

can u explain how u play shoot the moon

I love playing it

[ancient gyro]

fr

[zinc sigil]

But idk I never get red seals

[wintry ice]

oh like the joker that gives +1$ per point of interest?

[ancient gyro]

red seals aren't required

13 mult is plentiful

[grizzled robin]

balatro discord players trying their hardest to not send death threats challenge (someone called a joker other than showman bad)

[sly girder]

dont mind my newer save

one sec

[grizzled robin]

ok not actrual threats ofc

pun inside guys 👍

[nova mantle]

Rocket ❤️‍🩹

[sly girder]

chad is here and photo is not

[nova mantle]

My favorite econ

[zinc sigil]

Is showman bad? It gets me through early so often

[fiery nymph]

i wonder where the 13 mult came from

[sly girder]

he's the best around

[zinc sigil]

Wait no thats stuntman

[wintry ice]

stuntman is good

[sly girder]

showman makes it so the same jokers can show up

[wintry ice]

one of the better rares

[sly girder]

and same tarots

[zinc sigil]

They never do btw

[wintry ice]

showman is for endless pretty much

[zinc sigil]

Fucking scam

[sly girder]

lmao

[zinc sigil]

I only get 2 high card planets in a 1 card pack

[frank grove]

famously bad joker obelisk (and this wasnt even that optimal scaling either i could've got it higher)

[fiery nymph]

i kinda like stuntman if im low on chips

[zinc sigil]

So its 6 mult?

[frank notch]

i almost always take stuntman

[fiery nymph]

he does overall get outshined

by other chip scalers

IMO

[sly girder]

square joker mogs

[frank grove]

X6.4 mult and i couldve got it to like 8 if i was playing slower and didnt have the two brainstorms

[fiery nymph]

but he is very instant which is why hes good

[sly girder]

yeah

he's def not bad

[nova mantle]

hes at its best when you dont got any planet levels on pair

[sly girder]

butttttt

[zinc sigil]

Why do you have it in the first spot

Arent mults supposed to be right most

[ancient gyro]

🥀

[nova mantle]

when no one got me ik stuntman is there for me

[frank grove]

i have two brainstorms

[zinc sigil]

Ahhhh right left most copy

Mb

[wintry ice]

i think all scaling chip jokers other than wee are about equal in effectiveness

[ancient gyro]

he has different functions over chip scalers in that it's already scaled

[zinc sigil]

Is the negative joker hand size

[frank grove]

No it was a nat neg brainstorm in like ante 3 or something

and the stm i just found whilst rolling

[zinc sigil]

The right most

[fiery nymph]

yeah wee is the best chip source in my opinion

[wintry ice]

i like using stuntman with high card

[frank grove]

and took it for fun

[ancient gyro]

gonna alter my hand size where a pair of 2s is my ev

[fiery nymph]

i dont think its crazy to say though

[zinc sigil]

So how do you have 7 hand size with stuntman

[frank grove]

paint brush voucher

[zinc sigil]

Voucher?

I see

[wintry ice]

stuntman is particularly effective on painted

[fiery nymph]

stuntman is very worth ur slot

especially if ur playin hc or pair

[zinc sigil]

Whats the play with painted, straights?

Stm?

[fiery nymph]

he pretty much supports every hand that doesnt have enough chips via planet

[wintry ice]

lobotomy but with two pairs

[frank grove]

Yeah

[fiery nymph]

which makes the "drawback" of a smaller hand size less of an issue

[ancient gyro]

pair/2pair/straights/multiple non joker scoring options

[zinc sigil]

Is that a joker or idk

[fiery nymph]

spare trousers

[zinc sigil]

What does that last thing mean?

[wintry ice]

it's a nickname given for scaling +mult pair builds

[zinc sigil]

That does make sense

Non joker scoring options so planet cards and chariots?

[ancient gyro]

scoring sources that don't require a joker slot (enhancements, planets)

[zinc sigil]

Thanks

[wintry ice]

actually

quick question

[zinc sigil]

Im sorry if I ask too many easy questions

[slow iris]

golden ticket and banner gold stickered

2 jokers remain

[fiery nymph]

ur good

[wintry ice]

do people prefer straights or two pair on it

like overall

[quaint trench]

Hi

[frank grove]

Im biased so straights but two pair is probably the right answer

[serene forge]

I hate BLoodstone

[fiery nymph]

i have no successful gold stake straight run

two pair on the other hand i have a lot

but ill consider that a skill issue

[frank grove]

i have quite a lot of good straight runs

[fiery nymph]

😔

[frank grove]

but i do really like straights so whenever i see the gates open im diving

[terse vale]

mmmm see

[zinc sigil]

Who was it that said hologram was insane

[wintry ice]

sell faceless after using it next boss?

[zinc sigil]

I need hologram and dna right

[rancid gull]

hologram and dna is cool

[wintry ice]

hologram is a very consistent scaling xmult joker

[ancient gyro]

it depends on what your first mult source is

[zinc sigil]

So ante 1 its really good?

[fiery nymph]

hologram in general is pretty solid

i like hologram it won me my first gs run

[ancient gyro]

2 pairs have more joker options

[wintry ice]

like anywhere until 5

[frank grove]

Yeah

[zinc sigil]

Okay I will try it now then

[fiery nymph]

i find it awfully hard to get things like shortcut for straights

[zinc sigil]

And I spam card packs and pairs

[fiery nymph]

and i also just cant get enough fixing

by the time i lose

idk what to prioritize

[wintry ice]

pretty good already

[fiery nymph]

i think straights require a lot more game knowledge but can be very powerful when i do

im just not at that point yet

[ancient gyro]

straights are more picky on what tools they need to make them work as well as they do

[frank grove]

Yeah

[ancient gyro]

2 pair has good stepping stones

since it can work with more jokers and tarots

[frank grove]

yeah its easier to pivot to 2pair instead of straights

[humble gulch]

HOW I KEEP DRAWING THOSE BLUE SEALS

[fiery nymph]

i honestly just use two pair in runs where i dont have a crazy prominent chip source for pairs

[grizzled robin]

has anyone even gotten naneinf without mime or baron

[ancient gyro]

2 pair itself can pivot to other oak hands

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[frank grove]

yeah

[grizzled robin]

how

[fiery nymph]

perkeo

[slow iris]

on my first ever c++ i ended up getting all 3 of my remaining jokers in one run (perkeo, troub, and some random common)

[frank grove]

other methods usually require perkeo

[humble gulch]

Bean bug or perkeo

[grizzled robin]

ok other than perkeo?

[humble gulch]

Bean bug

[grizzled robin]

whats that

[fiery nymph]

idol cant naninf right

can it?

i dont think so

[humble gulch]

+5 permanent hand size every time crimsom heart disables bean

[frank grove]

if you have like 30 socks with ecto anhkk then it can iirc?

but thats with red seal poly glass

so a lot of things have to lineup and thats tough

[fiery nymph]

flush five cant naninf without perkeo

like at all

?

[hexed tundra]

Yeah, scaled it to x9, still, it was in the first shop and I had to think a lot, but it's great for early game

[frank grove]

https://youtu.be/lhaQILuY2TA

[grizzled robin]

very tough yes, just need enough ectos and ankhs and eternals... and perkeo..

just luck slop

tbh

but very rare for anyone to do that legit

[rancid gull]

there's also the chicot bug

[grizzled robin]

oh yea but thats +1 hand size only

[fiery nymph]

no

[rancid gull]

it's consistent though

[ancient gyro]

f5 can't cant naneinf without legendaries or a specific bug

[frank grove]

with bean bug you can play a flush five and still nan right? but like thats not really flush five naneinfing so no

[ancient gyro]

up to +5 per hand

[sleek valley]

Does a finisher blind appear if you somehow manage to be and ante -8?

[ancient gyro]

can't be at ante -8

[sleek valley]

Also is it even possible to be below -1?

[woven spire]

hello chat

[zinc sigil]

In this spot do you take anything or just go next

Just get to 25 asap right

[ancient gyro]

runner

[frank grove]

runner

[ancient gyro]

runner

[zinc sigil]

Dont I rush 25 dolla

[grizzled robin]

but how naneinf with this? or just steel cards

[frank grove]

lots of steel cards, copy jokers and mime yes

[ancient gyro]

I rather have a chip source mid to late game

[zinc sigil]

I see

[grizzled robin]

runner i guess.. only since youre in painted deck

straights are hard for new players icl

also if i was you i wouldnt ask for advice too much

[zinc sigil]

I can try

[ancient gyro]

runner is normally a must grab in general

[grizzled robin]

just experience the game yourself

[hazy hound]

Ope guess I cant win lmao

[ancient gyro]

as a pair joker

[zinc sigil]

Ive been playing for a month

[grizzled robin]

ah i see

[zinc sigil]

Kinda sick of my 1% winrate

[grizzled robin]

oh

how do u check winrate

[frank grove]

GOD i love vagabond

[zinc sigil]

Its a joke.

[ancient gyro]

balatrostats

o

[grizzled robin]

xd

[zinc sigil]

Im just really bad

[woeful widget]

this is where dreams go to die

[ancient gyro]

👅

[sly girder]

i think

[humble gulch]

@sly girder I don't think I'm doing all five stickers at once, but surely I'll get Stone Joker with this one

[sly girder]

i just got the easiest run of all time

hi

[sly girder]

fs

[terse vale]

now dear viewer I want you to think what went wrong in this interaction

[grizzled robin]

jusdt dont listen to the propaganda and play for photochads bro xd maybe the game wont be as fun or engaging but youll win way more

[ancient gyro]

u already won :)

[grizzled robin]

then again when i say this im subjecting myself to atleast 30 hate replies but

[ancient gyro]

well

[terse vale]

I mean you are wrong

not hating just saying you’re kinda wrong

[grizzled robin]

there we go xd

[sly girder]

noo not my cards...

[ancient gyro]

being neurodivergent is how the game rewards you

[terse vale]

balatro player reading challenge

[boreal oar]

to be fair talking here is fully optional

[zinc sigil]

I like facecards so easy and consistent but u just dont really win many runs

[grizzled robin]

how that related

what

[zinc sigil]

Or me atleast

[boreal oar]

complaining that your take will get backlash when you could just not say the take if it bothers you

[humble gulch]

Died

[boreal oar]

just seems a little self inflicted

[grizzled robin]

nope i was just trying to be a sigma evil mastermind and predict the hate comments

[humble gulch]

At least I've got this

[grizzled robin]

calm down

[boreal oar]

ohhh i see, carry on

[grizzled robin]

how did you not get the joke

[sly girder]

hooray

[grizzled robin]

thats exactly why i said "there we go"

[sly girder]

my goat space man

[terse vale]

what joke

[zinc sigil]

All ur runs just have poly jokers

[grizzled robin]

that you said "no hate" and i acted like u hated bro

[sly girder]

he's on ghost

so yeah

[grizzled robin]

whatever

[woeful widget]

is there literally anything i can do lmao

[sly girder]

the card you start with gives you a poly

[zinc sigil]

Thats the theme of the deck?

[humble gulch]

I'll die if I take space joker, you know

[zinc sigil]

I see

[grizzled robin]

guess it wasnt very obvious

[sly girder]

theme of the deck

[sly girder]

i dont care

[humble gulch]

Ghost deck

[sly girder]

take him

he needs you

[ancient gyro]

didn't somebody get banned for inciting negative vibes

[terse vale]

this is common occurrence where people do not read replies I apologize 😭 I didn’t know you were joking

[terse vale]

[ancient gyro]

o

[terse vale]

[humble gulch]

I kind of need space and he's such a joker

[ancient gyro]

eyes

[terse vale]

well you didn’t bring any glass

[zinc sigil]

[grizzled robin]

youre fine dw it wasnt very obvious now that i look at it

[terse vale]

and also chose pareidolia

[zinc sigil]

Was a nice run aezar

[grizzled robin]

am i next

[woeful widget]

what would that even do

in this situation

[woeful widget]

well yeah no duh

[sly girder]

the jokes might actually kill me

[woeful widget]

it worked w my synergy

[ancient gyro]

rule 10 moment 🥀

[humble gulch]

Bahaha

[zinc sigil]

Do you guys always take spectrals

[terse vale]

lose ig

[zinc sigil]

I always do

[humble gulch]

Not really

[zinc sigil]

I regret it alot

[terse vale]

like spectral packs ?

[woeful widget]

lmfao bro jus typin shi

[zinc sigil]

But I still do it

Yea packs

[ancient gyro]

on streak runs I'll think more about it

[terse vale]

not always no

[ancient gyro]

but generally I try to

[zinc sigil]

What are streak runs? Like winstreaks?

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[terse vale]

ya

[zinc sigil]

My highest is 2

✌🏼

[ancient gyro]

✌️

[zinc sigil]

Get it peace cause of 2

[humble gulch]

This run will make him green with envy

[grizzled robin]

well spectral cards are actually pretty cheap and worth picking up... worst case you end up with a decent seal which you know, cant say no to that

[terse vale]

mine is 5 but I got blueprint on 2 of those runs so I feel like its cheated

[grizzled robin]

you dont have to take the actual risks like ecto or wraith

optional

[safe sequoia]

Uh, so

[grizzled robin]

immolates are S tier too early game aswell

[zinc sigil]

Wraith was set gold to 0 get a rare joker right

[safe sequoia]

Guess how I lost

[grizzled robin]

correct

[humble gulch]

Five too

[sly girder]

please stop with the jokes or else i will +1 mult on hand played and -1 mult on discard. Polychrome: 1.5x mult when triggered

[zinc sigil]

Is five a lot

[sly girder]

i didnt have a joke

im sorry

[frank notch]

the first ecto is amazing if your combo is locked in

the second is rarely takeable, and any more screws you

[humble gulch]

Some might say you were joke(r)less

[ancient gyro]

worst case the shop weight of 2 actually kills your run from reducing your joker weight probabilities (not too impactful)

[sly girder]

well played actually

i liked that one

[zinc sigil]

Are soul cards in spectral packs I only found them in arcanas

[lime remnant]

yes

[woeful widget]

is this.. net gains..?

[humble gulch]

Two on my main file, lol

[zinc sigil]

Is it more common in arcana or is there no stat

[lime remnant]

might be

[lime remnant]

more common in arcana since you get more arcana

[sly girder]

i might need coaching

please help

[lime remnant]

and more options

[zinc sigil]

I see

[grizzled robin]

real mfs will sell the joker you have then buy the temperance

to just really teach a lesson about saving money

[woeful widget]

legit

[ancient gyro]

on average its marginally more common as there are more consumables and arcana frequency. the probability is 0.3% per consulable

[zinc sigil]

Thanks

[humble gulch]

I play really fast and I have no idea on how to teach, mainly because I don't speak english

[sly girder]

what language

[terse vale]

I think its only middle of the streak rankings ?

[humble gulch]

Spanish

[sly girder]

hola

[humble gulch]

Bruh

[sly girder]

mi nombre nateynight

how is that

[ancient gyro]

el gato

[zinc sigil]

Whats the highest like 10?

[ancient gyro]

no habla espanol

[terse vale]

highest streak ever?

[humble gulch]

Stop, I'm laughing for real 😭

[zinc sigil]

Yuh

Wait I know it

[terse vale]

I think 89

[zinc sigil]

Its doc

[sly girder]

el helpo me

[zinc sigil]

With the 100% no death

[ancient gyro]

highest for gs is 93 on blue deck

[sly girder]

or

mi

idk what the correct thing is

[terse vale]

doc only got like 62

[zinc sigil]

Oh

[terse vale]

I say “only” in comparison to the blue deck guy

[ancient gyro]

highest on black deck gs afaik is 7

[zinc sigil]

93 is insane

[humble gulch]

What are you trying to say, dawg

[grizzled robin]

by the way you dont even need any eco at all if you have tarot tycoon and overstock plus

[ancient gyro]

which is what I'm trying to beat

[grizzled robin]

right?

[sly girder]

please help me

[grizzled robin]

cause its just infinite temperances and hermits

[humble gulch]

Por favor, ayudame

[zinc sigil]

Is there a no stake win streak thats like 400

[sly girder]

por favor sen~or

[terse vale]

thought it would have been something like 20 idk why

[sly girder]

i dont have an international keyboard

[humble gulch]

I'm dying, please, stop

🥀 🥀

[ancient gyro]

theoretically it would be in the trillions as there isn't proven to be an unwinnable seed yet

without bugs

[sly girder]

well you should probably vive'

is that live in spanish

how am i doing

[ancient gyro]

it could be in theory

[zinc sigil]

Is this always worth it

Just get to 50 gold

Right

[sly girder]

most itmes

interest is really strong

[humble gulch]

In this case it's actually "vivir"

[sly girder]

but idk bout now

[ancient gyro]

I only know brookes black deck gs since she actually played it while I was in chat

[sly girder]

vivir is "to live" though?

i was like

i guess i did past tense

so it doenst work

[zinc sigil]

I get to 35 first?

[sly girder]

prob

[frank notch]

vive is the present he/she/you formal

[willow frost]

lmfao

[frank notch]

vivir is untensed

[zinc sigil]

Is that why in one piece its called vivre card

[fluid nova]

;-; when will i get my nan inf

[sly girder]

i wanted to say "you should probably live"

but like

[frank notch]

obelisk build >:)

[sly girder]

i know vivir is to live

[lime remnant]

you only have to try to find a way to kill ante 24

[humble gulch]

Don't make me learn language, I barely know how to type in english

[zinc sigil]

Whats that joker

[sly girder]

idk you're pretty good

[fluid nova]

ill grab a knive and stab it

[sly girder]

senor huezos

[frank notch]

perkeo

[willow frost]

no antimatter rip

[lime remnant]

thats mod 💀

[zinc sigil]

Ohh

[lime remnant]

good choice

[humble gulch]

I actually don't remember how it's called on spanish, I guess it is Señor Huesos

[grizzled robin]

like look, i get how endless runs get boring, but you gotta admit its fun seeing the high numbers

[zinc sigil]

Ur fried right +e4 impossible now?

[grizzled robin]

at the same time theres literally nothing i can do now and i will eventually just die xd

[sly girder]

dang it

[willow frost]

maybe not the in game knife, that one's not very helpful

[fluid nova]

yeee

[sly girder]

i typed out huesos the first time

and then recorrected it to a z

[fluid nova]

the cult dagger stinks

[ancient gyro]

having a sneezing fit after doing an intense ab workout the day before really sucks

[terse vale]

no it dont

[grizzled robin]

oh all 5 of my glass cards just broke at once

[terse vale]

oh dang

[wintry ice]

boring run ngl

[fluid nova]

if it could sac the ante 24 boss blind maybe

[humble gulch]

Free win

[ancient gyro]

for every bad take mentioned in chat, I have ten gs black deck screenshots to ratio against 🐘

[peak crest]

give me a deck to use (not red because i already finished it on gold stake)

[sly girder]

anyways

[ancient gyro]

black

[terse vale]

its not great but it works most of the time

[lime remnant]

black

[sly girder]

off i go

i have a game to play

[terse vale]

its like B-

[sly girder]

buh bye

[peak crest]

at least i only have it on red stake i guess…

[sly girder]

buh bye senor out

[wintry ice]

3 stickers

[wicked sonnet]

balala

[lime remnant]

boy you are going to suffer

[zinc sigil]

Just realised I only have 4 joker slots

[terse vale]

painted++?

[ancient gyro]

world record

yeah

[grizzled robin]

paintedmaxxing

[zinc sigil]

Stencil op

[terse vale]

well I wannna join in on the fun too gimme a deck thats not black painted or PLASMA

[minor portal]

Green

[terse vale]

green or nebula I bet

FUCK

[lime remnant]

green 🤔

[frank notch]

zodiac

[lime remnant]

i hate green sm

[terse vale]

welp

[wintry ice]

what the judgement

[edgy stone]

Guys, my friend told me that Obelisk is the worst rare Joker. Idk how to show him how to use it

[terse vale]

green++ it is

[ancient gyro]

magic

oh

[terse vale]

I mean lowkey

[wintry ice]

i think i'm going droll over spectral

[terse vale]

I don’t really wanna do green

[frank notch]

forcefully reset obelisk ever hand, then when its time play a different hand

[wintry ice]

that just seems safer i think

[frank notch]

do zodiac

[terse vale]

its between magic and zodiac since those provide a fun spin on the game without changing how you play completely

[frank grove]

I love zodiac deck

[peak crest]

i got a michel early

[zinc sigil]

Im the friend I guess

[terse vale]

I think i’ll just flip a coin

[ancient gyro]

I wanna know what abandoned++ profile stats look like

[peak crest]

it went extinct next round

[humble gulch]

Yeah...

That's a win right there

[frank grove]

ooh i should do abandoned only c++

[terse vale]

oooo wait yeah

[peak crest]

i'm dead

[terse vale]

alright argil can then

[humble gulch]

C++ but every run has to be on the next deck

[terse vale]

heads for zodiac tails for magic

[frank notch]

c++ but on jokerless

[edgy stone]

Yeah half joker is so good

[ancient gyro]

if u wanna

[frank notch]

and you have to win with every possible combination of cards in hand

[frank grove]

thats basically how i did a lot of my c++ runs anyway

[terse vale]

tails

[humble gulch]

I can't believe it's not getting nerfed

[ancient gyro]

well probably because fist exists

[serene forge]

I hate BLoodstone

[ancient gyro]

and it's probably better for its niche

[zinc sigil]

Does using strength even make sense in straight runs

[humble gulch]

• you can't change deck 'till you win

[zinc sigil]

What do I strength

[terse vale]

the only annoying part is getting completionist and actually unlocking magic deck

[ancient gyro]

for inflating middle ranks a little bit, you could do that

[zinc sigil]

Ohhh

But then I miss out on 4s and 3s

[ancient gyro]

i still haven't discovered planet tycoon on my black deck profile

[pastel hatch]

my quick math was off...

[frank grove]

yeah you dont want really low or really high straights

[zinc sigil]

Why not?

High straights good pointy no

[terse vale]

wait what am I complaining about

I could unlock all

[grizzled robin]

becauise the odds are better for mid straights

way better

[pastel hatch]

theyre less consistent

[frank grove]

yeah

[pastel hatch]

unless your deck is fixed

[frank grove]

making more aces is also not that good

[zinc sigil]

Dont you have 4 of each card

[terse vale]

the chips from the cards wont matter later

[ancient gyro]

high straights are not in as many straight combinations

[frank grove]

Queen/jack - 6/5 is usually the call

[zinc sigil]

Oh cause it ends in ace and 2s

I get it

[ancient gyro]

A, 2, and Ks appear in 2 total straight combinations

[zinc sigil]

Its not a circle its a chain

[pastel hatch]

would be true if you could do smth like king ace 2 3 4

but you cant

[humble gulch]

I THOUGHT I WAS DEAD BUT THAT STRAIGHT SAVED ME 😭

[ancient gyro]

but 5-10 appear in 5 different straight combinations

[frank grove]

first abandoned++ run 🔥

[zinc sigil]

Okay so I want 5-Q?

[ancient gyro]

something like that

I do 5-J

[zinc sigil]

Good advice thanks

[ancient gyro]

5 is fibbable and hackable, J has all face card joker perks

[frank grove]

yeah

queen is okay if you cant cut queens but jack-5 is better

[humble gulch]

I guesss

[zinc sigil]

Holy fuck I win?

[terse vale]

with green its fine

[ancient gyro]

if you have very good deck fixing tools and not just average, you can prioritize cutting low cards before ace faces at all

[zinc sigil]

I sell the right most right

[lime remnant]

yep

now you just need some kind of xmult

[humble gulch]

Free win

[zinc sigil]

Okay okay so ramen

[ancient gyro]

well

preferably something else

but yeah

[zinc sigil]

4 jokers is so little

[humble gulch]

I know, I just didn't wanted to give up on delayed gratification yet

[lime remnant]

ramen is kinda buns in a straight build

something simple like a photograph works but if you go with lower straight then

[ancient gyro]

even with painted shortcut, if you have any value cards in your deck, you're usually discarding cards to find them more frequently

gold cards, blue seals, etc

[zinc sigil]

Why is there no negative strength

Like -1 rank

[ancient gyro]

perkeo:

o

[zinc sigil]

Like this

[lime remnant]

yeah if you go with straight that has a face card

[zinc sigil]

But now I alr am 7 dolla deep

[lime remnant]

gives a good amount of mult

[zinc sigil]

Into that joker

[terse vale]

oh my bad I didn’t notice you had delgrat

[ancient gyro]

assuming you have good straight levels yeah that works

[lime remnant]

even better if you have retriggers

[terse vale]

wait how are you at 4 dollars
you’re not scaling const under interest cap aarrree you…

[zinc sigil]

I dont

[zinc sigil]

I dont either

[lime remnant]

ah

[lean parcel]

Is this game worth the hype? It seems kinda different to the last few games I played

[lime remnant]

how many lv then itss gotta be like lv5 at least no?

[ancient gyro]

gulp

[zinc sigil]

If I wasnt talking in this chat I dont take photograph here and I just go next cause I want more tarots

[zinc sigil]

Heh

[lime remnant]

chips are important

[zinc sigil]

I always buy tarots

[lime remnant]

[zinc sigil]

I also buy card packs over planets

[zinc sigil]

R u paying? 😭

[lime remnant]

no but the win pays you

well its only white stake so you couldddd get away with it

but later stakes you gonna need those planet cards

[lean parcel]

And is there any disadvantage to playing on mobile? I’ve been looking for new games to play on my phone

[lime remnant]

no

[lean parcel]

W

Thx

[zinc sigil]

Buy planets they said

Its good they said

[lime remnant]

well you still have a good amount of money

[zinc sigil]

I got fucking scammed

[lime remnant]

[zinc sigil]

Ok boss

[lime remnant]

maybe find a telescope

[ancient gyro]

2 pair

[humble gulch]

This is like, one of the best things that happened to me

[ancient gyro]

you're currently hand agnostic rn

[lime remnant]

can you kill it

[humble gulch]

Yeah

Luchador

[lime remnant]

im blind

[zinc sigil]

Guess what I took

[ancient gyro]

[lime remnant]

i think you took 4oak

just a guess

💀

[limber nova]

Dear Black Deck,
Fuck you.

Regards,

[zinc sigil]

Whats 4oak

[lime remnant]

4 of a kind

that mars

[zinc sigil]

I took high card

Most played

High card doesnt even call me twin no more they call me clone

[frank notch]

bro thought ts would defeat me

[zinc sigil]

But I guess two pair must be better

[frank notch]

justice from emperor from purple seal

[ancient gyro]

:P

maybe someday

[lime remnant]

understandable hate

[radiant blade]

what do i even do

[minor portal]

joyous negative rental perishable joker

[lime remnant]

you just play normally....copy the hologram bro

[ancient gyro]

u already won

[humble gulch]

Four stickers left

[peak crest]

you know

[terse vale]

😭

[limber nova]

I tried to post the gif of markiplier ragequitting Getting Over It

[peak crest]

the thought never crossed my mind that a black hole could be in a spectral pack

idk why

[radiant blade]

ur right

[ancient gyro]

or arcana if you bought omen globen

[peak crest]

i just have always gotten them from celestials until now

[limber leaf]

Negative flowers looks good bro damn

[frank grove]

ok close

[zinc sigil]

Is this worth over tarot card

[limber leaf]

Hey, you won thats all that matters

[humble gulch]

It doesn't look THAT good

[ancient gyro]

lmk when you get 43 abandoned win streak

[zinc sigil]

Cause tarot card gives me deck fixing potentially right

[lime remnant]

no

[limber leaf]

Its lwk sexy tho

[frank grove]

workin on it

[humble gulch]

It's a flower pot, bro 😭

[ancient gyro]

for reference vayn has a 42 win streak on checkered

[humble gulch]

Gold stake I guess

[limber leaf]

Would

[lime remnant]

igb

[ancient gyro]

i don't have evidence to prove abandoned top 3 in something

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[frank grove]

lets get throwback out of the way i guess ...

[ancient gyro]

o

[lime remnant]

if throwback was buffed to 0.75x would it become a good joker

[frank grove]

theres investment tag so its actually not going to be a paper weight either

[humble gulch]

×0.5*

[lime remnant]

0.75 is too much?

[humble gulch]

×0.75 is way too much

[ancient gyro]

just revert its last rework

[lime remnant]

x0.5 works

[frank grove]

ok not actually that bad to get out of the way either

[humble gulch]

Full houses run incoming

[ancient gyro]

pot isn't the worst thing on abandoned

[frank grove]

yeah it isnt that bad on abandoned

[harsh relic]

smol deck

[ancient gyro]

if you win with that stupid lineup

[frail ingot]

If there is hand size why isn't there Discard size

[ancient gyro]

new serpent can fill that niche

sorta

[frank notch]

hand size = amount of cards in hand

[frail ingot]

Not the same thing

[slow iris]

one more gold sticker left for painted++

[lime remnant]

an iq too high?

[frank notch]

precisely, thats why there isnt discard size

[frail ingot]

Yeah but just tought if it

[lime remnant]

if discard size exist then hand played size have to exist too

[humble gulch]

I believe that investment tag it's a lot better if it appears on the second blind

[lime remnant]

🤔

[zinc sigil]

Novice is this good enough for xmult

[ancient gyro]

uh

with 6 hands I would seek other sources

[lime remnant]

....kinda?

[frail ingot]

Niche

[zinc sigil]

So I keep tarot

[lime remnant]

you do throw a lot of money out tho

yeah

[zinc sigil]

Okay

[weak relic]

Better than loyalty card ig

[astral mist]

ehh no

[weak relic]

Wait

[astral mist]

depends

[humble gulch]

Oh god

[frail ingot]

If u gonna rely on it then no

[ancient gyro]

well

[weak relic]

Dont take it

[pastel hatch]

is it though

[frail ingot]

Find something else

[ancient gyro]

in this case it's actually worse

[weak relic]

With 6 hands it maybe is not worth

[harsh relic]

acrobat is more reliable

[astral mist]

hold my blue deck nacho tong

[weak relic]

Js find something like blackboard or carp sharp

[limber leaf]

Mmm carp shard

[peak crest]

forgetting the blueprint burglar is outrageous…

[pastel hatch]

if you can draw your hand, loyality card would proc 1.5 times per blind vs one acrobat proc

[lime remnant]

card sharp on straight run 🤔

[zinc sigil]

Never heard of carp sharp

[pastel hatch]

its painted

[weak relic]

Mmfgh

[lime remnant]

but hes doing straight

[astral mist]

should i make a gtnh mod for balatro

lowkey would be fire

[lime remnant]

might be a bit much

[pastel hatch]

yeah?

[slow iris]

painted deck makes it easier to play straights

[harsh relic]

still

[lime remnant]

ik but what if

[oblique ermine]

am i doing this right?

[astral mist]

lowkey gng sound like tiktok commentor 🔥 💀

[zinc sigil]

So spectral packs are always just bait?

[lime remnant]

you dont find straight

[astral mist]

what

two posts at the same time

[harsh relic]

yes

[astral mist]

am i seeing double

[ancient gyro]

ecto isnt the worst thing to find

[lime remnant]

seeing double mentioned

[zinc sigil]

But my straights are ruined maybe?

[harsh relic]

balatro reference 🤯🤯

[lime remnant]

ecto is right htere bro

[viral raft]

Most of spectrals are bad, so yeah

[weak relic]

Cheap xmult

[lime remnant]

bro you still have 9 card in hand

[astral mist]

immolate, ankh on black stake

[zinc sigil]

Okay

[ancient gyro]

oh no 1 out of my 12 hand size

[wintry ice]

they're still worth buying in the lategame

[zinc sigil]

No more like the cards no

[weak relic]

Clubs are pretty based tbh

[astral mist]

cryptid is overrated but also really underrated

[limber leaf]

whyd u nut

[zinc sigil]

I cant do multiple hands straights

[astral mist]

bc people think of naneinf when they see cryptid

but its really usefu for other builds too

[pastel hatch]

cryptid is situational

[ancient gyro]

you can still fully discard for a straight

[wintry ice]

if anything bad happens you can skip

[zinc sigil]

Okay okay

[viral raft]

Yeah some spectrals are great (medium, trance, inmolate, Hex and Ankh) but alot o them are baaad

[lime remnant]

well its easier to one shot either way

[ancient gyro]

and hold 3 blue seals on top of that

[zinc sigil]

Wait ffs

I cant even hold 5 jokers

[pastel hatch]

if you have a good card to copy its good, if not then its bad

[zinc sigil]

Im playing this to get invis joker

😭

[ancient gyro]

oh

[zinc sigil]

Now I went ecto

shoulda just skipped

[ancient gyro]

you can just ignore the ecto

[zinc sigil]

Mb

[pastel hatch]

wait this is white stake

[zinc sigil]

Yea

[lime remnant]

invis is going to give you shortcut i can see it

[zinc sigil]

I havent unlocked it

[wintry ice]

actually wild rare

[ancient gyro]

wild

[lime remnant]

skull emoji

[weak relic]

Great thing it's not perishable

All of my duos are perishable

[zinc sigil]

Im pretty new

[ancient gyro]

that's the point of them playing on painted

[lime remnant]

ik im just reacting to the fact he picked ecto

[zinc sigil]

Found my xmult

[frank notch]

i have an excuse to use this image now

[zinc sigil]

Is it till 100 then

Holy fuck its till 100

[terse dock]

https://www.reddit.com/r/balatro/s/TE2DYNS9yF ITS ALL WINMORE

[serene forge]

3/21/26 balatrodle in 5

[serene forge]

no

[noble mango]

Microscopic joker?

[serene forge]

immolate, trance, medium are excellent hits, talisman, deja, cryptid are solid too

[lime remnant]

those who baron

[serene forge]

stuff like familiar can also be somewhat useful

[ancient gyro]

they were trying to unlock invis

[noble mango]

What's the worst spectral card

[ancient gyro]

ouija

[serene forge]

my two favorite joker ideas are "halve listed probabilities" and "scale when score catches fire"

[terse dock]

luigi

[serene forge]

definitely the most original and good ideas

[noble mango]

Figures . . .

[balmy ocean]

The dumbest way to beat plasma deck:

[serene forge]

weegee sucks so fucking bad

[noble mango]

Activate When score catches fire jokers do be fire

[limber nova]

I think Balatro is the only community where you can say
“Show me your wee” and not get banned

[stoic isle]

incantation hater

[ancient gyro]

the former is just gonna stink most of the time

[light brook]

the ace one sucks as well but luigi is so much worse

[noble mango]

Tf2

[terse dock]

I like grim

[light brook]

give me your seed.

[serene forge]

grim is ok

[limber nova]

Fair.

[serene forge]

incantation is the worst one of the three because of variance

[noble mango]

At least scholar build exist

[noble mango]

Wee boot

[light brook]

true so does archie

[terse dock]

fib's better for A

[ancient gyro]

not even

[hazy hound]

If I unlock all, am I still eligible for achievements on that profile

[ancient gyro]

just a guaranteed rank

[serene forge]

buh buh buh

[frank notch]

incantation is ONLY good with hologram

[serene forge]

but i need to play my glass flush fives

[limber nova]

I main Ze Doctor in tf2, i am become hate

[humble gulch]

800 hours and I can't kiss Jimbo, 0/10

[terse dock]

grim also makes it so that aces are the easiest rank

[serene forge]

snake eye joker will let me play braindead glass builds more

[ancient gyro]

ace are epic rtb tech

[cloud minnow]

What can this do? Or should I not buy it?

[serene forge]

it does what it says on the tin

[hybrid tendon]

balatrodle in 3

[serene forge]

it wouldn't make much sense to add something literally useless to the game though, would it

[serene forge]

Miku_love

[humble gulch]

After you buy it ten times it unlocks antimatter, which gives you +1 jokers slot

[versed sable]

balatrodle in 3
-w-

[lime remnant]

is fib a good jonkler

[light brook]

i saw concept for the hand xmult jokers (don’t know the term for them in the community, but like the family and the trio and junk) for high card and it was “gains .1x mult for every high card played” and i think that’s too good

[ancient gyro]

showman

[light brook]

yes

[humble gulch]

Not really

[terse dock]

Snecko Eye (Rare)
+2 hand size
All playing cards are debuffed if they would score in a played hand.

[serene forge]

bbc value

[lime remnant]

i see some conflict here

[ancient gyro]

it's one of the better on card scoring jokers

[frank notch]

fib can be a good joker

[frank grove]

ok gamed

[terse dock]

YES

[frank grove]

silly

[lime remnant]

do i need retriggers

[light brook]

it’s incredibly good early game, and can go good in late game with retrigggers

[ancient gyro]

nah

[terse dock]

it has hack

though it doesnt need it

[lime remnant]

later stages tho

[ancient gyro]

you can get plentiful value with a 2 pair

[lime remnant]

or fib is an early game merchant

hm

cant find hack whenever i need it 💀

[ancient gyro]

it's better to learn how to play with only one joker

without its synergies

[terse dock]

mmph

mmm

[serene forge]

Busted Crown (Rare)
Gain +1 hand and +1 discard per turn. Future booster packs have 1 fewer option available.

[lime remnant]

its either i find hack when playing 4oak face card run or i cant find hack whenever i do wee/fib

🤔

[light brook]

the day will come eventually…

[red sparrow]

Which is the easiest

[arctic gazelle]

guys yall should totes watch my stream

[lime remnant]

shit i found sock before i found hack 💀

[serene forge]

yes

[noble mango]

What would reversed joker effect look like

[compact gazelle]

uncommons are uncommon and there’s like 60ish of them

[light brook]

all

[pallid ferry]

all of the above

[lime remnant]

xray and rich is the easiest

[frank grove]

okayyyy

[compact gazelle]

all free

[red sparrow]

Thanks for the actual good answer

[light brook]

bro this is selective hearing they are literally all easy

[terse dock]

Coffee Dripper (Rare)
+2 hands
No longer gain interest.

[frank notch]

i won with rgr me personally

[compact gazelle]

this tho
rgr is the easiest run in the game

[light brook]

essentially all are white stake + very minor setback/buff

[compact gazelle]

you have to be trying to lose rgr

[pallid ferry]

real answer though would probably be rich get richer it’s really easy

[ancient gyro]

im all in biased favor of monolith

[lime remnant]

i somehow find cruelty the hardest 😭

[compact gazelle]

free obelisk :3

[frank notch]

it is very hard

[zinc sigil]

Now that Ive unlocked it how do I use it

[terse dock]

15 minute city is just a free gay run

[ancient gyro]

free chip and x mult joker 😀

[zinc sigil]

Is it the same as ankh

Sell the others?

[lime remnant]

you kill someone and you buy it

[ancient gyro]

selling isn't required

[compact gazelle]

:D

[noble mango]

But what to copy

[light brook]

essentially except it doesn’t get rid of everything

[zinc sigil]

Prob the baseball best case no

[quartz salmon]

What a useful negative. Should I roll for DNA if so what would I sell for it

[pallid ferry]

to buy the invis they have to sell something

[zinc sigil]

Oh yea thats why u sell

[light brook]

most do get rid of everything to guarantee chances for a certain hit though just like ankh

[pallid ferry]

oh or were you talking about when they pop invis sorry

[lime remnant]

maybe blueprint

[humble gulch]

Extra selling value

[ancient gyro]

baseball in a8, aj for flush specific scenarios

[zinc sigil]

Yea im new to invis just unlocked it

[noble mango]

Just get it when 🍃 / shows up

[light brook]

invis is essentially an ankh that doesn’t get rid of everything

[zinc sigil]

But here is pretty useless?

[noble mango]

And extra sell value for that tarot

[humble gulch]

He probably already haves director's cut

[ancient gyro]

you can hold it or kill it with a dagger if say it would have copied an unwanted eternal copy in gold stake or something

[noble mango]

Negative

[quartz salmon]

I have retcon

[terse dock]

ankh gets rid of that too

what's your point

[zinc sigil]

U can kill eternal cards?

[quartz salmon]

But I wasn’t rlly being sarcastic it’s a nice safety net

[light brook]

no

[noble mango]

Never used that ig

[zinc sigil]

FINALLY I CAN TALK TO PEOPLE WHY THE FUCK DO I GET ETERNAL EGG LIKE EVERY TIME

isnt the point of egg to sell it

Is the game trolling me

[humble gulch]

No

[compact gazelle]

no, they mean if invis hitting a bad eternal is too big a risk you can knife it and it won’t activate

[terse dock]

Temperance, my child.

[humble gulch]

That's actually decent

[light brook]

swashbuckler/temprernce value

[zinc sigil]

What does knife it mean

[noble mango]

At least you get temperance value,
And piratey swashbuckler

[zinc sigil]

Ohhh temperance

Yea

[compact gazelle]

ceremonial dagger

[red sparrow]

Or you could be me and skip half the blinds and get fucked

[worldly edge]

Alright everyone, name me the non-legendary joker you use the most (that is not BarronMime, PhotoChad, Blueprint, or Brainstorm)

[lime remnant]

ceremonial dagger

[compact gazelle]

no it’s to feed the knife with

[zinc sigil]

I see the green black dagger

[terse dock]

Fibonacci

[light brook]

consty

[lime remnant]

yes

[arctic gazelle]

just got the game today i luv the game

[noble mango]

Wait

Can you knife eternal jokers

I never used knife, it seems too suck

[frank notch]

egg is useful for swash and tempy

[light brook]

no

[slow iris]

egg should always spawn as an eternal

[compact gazelle]

shortcut

[slow iris]

no point in selling

[zinc sigil]

I havent discovered it cause it made no sense to me

[frank notch]

no, but you can madness them odd enough

[terse dock]

Serious answer is const

[ancient gyro]

what kaiasann said

[noble mango]

Rental egg bad

[late quarry]

This it totally not related to anything I'm doing swear

[humble gulch]

I guess Baron Mime or Photo Chad, but I use blueprint and brainstorm a lot too

[zinc sigil]

Yea I got it now thank you 🙂

[light brook]

not true, madness don’t work on eternals

[lime remnant]

constel 🤔
