[echo sphinx]

and the whole deck is face down
and u have to play them to activate the jokers

[noble mango]

imagine having an already set baron mime build only for the boss to roll it into egg, red card, ripped gigachad joker banner and green joker

[willow frost]

truth

[stone shell]

what if amber acorn shuffled between random boss mechanics every hand idfk

[echo sphinx]

and it can be discarded without you knowing

[noble mango]

what if

Amber acorn:
every hand or discard, shuffle your entire hand

[willow frost]

imagine it switching to violet for your last hand lmao

[cursive crater]

boss idea:the circus
modifies the deck back to its first version until the end of the blind

[willow frost]

pairslop wins again

[noble mango]

turns to water :
set your discard to 0

you play a hand
turns into needle

• goodluck

[cursive crater]

i mean what doesnt pairslop win against except needle

shits like satoru gojo

[noble mango]

why the circus

what does a circus has in common with the effect

[solid bronze]

what am i building

[echo sphinx]

boss idea
the slots

+6 hands
play 5oak of rank 7 to beat the blind

[stone shell]

i remember the days when pairslop was called lobotomy im so old

[noble mango]

well i mean
idk why the rest of the boss have any relation with the effect tho

[cursive crater]

since your deck is gonna be reset, the boss want you to focus more on your jokers, hence the circus

[stone shell]

copy the ever living fuck out of your seals

[willow frost]

because you look like a clown with your baron mime build

[noble mango]

ah i see

[spring jungle]

im kinda new, is ecto worth taking here?

[willow frost]

no

[solid bronze]

too few handsize

[noble mango]

no

[spring jungle]

alright!

thanks

[echo sphinx]

burnnnnnm

[willow frost]

usually only take one ecto for naneinf

[stone shell]

scared about your scoring for the big boss

[spring jungle]

ight apreciate the help

[spring jungle]

what?

[stone shell]

meant if you take ecto you might run into an issue with the finisher blind

unless you wanna bean bug idk

[spring jungle]

oh yea

[noble mango]

i wonder what feature makes balatro balatro

[solid bronze]

buisness hit all hits

[willow frost]

i dont think he can bean bug with no burglar

or at least it wouldnt be very helpful

[stone shell]

5 handsize bump is essentially 1 free ecto if you can get away with it

[willow frost]

the title screen

[stone shell]

wheel of fortune

[noble mango]

i mean
true . .

[echo sphinx]

dragging cards everywhere

[spring jungle]

im kinda scared of the boss here ngl

[noble mango]

the insane rng

[stone shell]

several roguelikes depend on rng

[noble mango]

fair

if not
almost all games have some sort of rng

[stone shell]

you'll likely miss out on one dna copy but you can definitely guarantee at least 3

[spring jungle]

1 in 8 being 1 in 16

[stone shell]

if you play your jimbos right

[noble mango]

Banana

[solid bronze]

banana

[solid bronze]

yuri

[strange compass]

Guys is there some app that can delete only my Balatro screenshots? They are hoarding too much space now 😭

[stone shell]

delete them manually

[noble mango]

you remind me of my time spent deleting pvzh screenshots from my phone

manually sadly

[strange compass]

PvZ heroes?

[noble mango]

yep

[strange compass]

I have alot Dragon Ball Legends screenshots too

[tight pike]

Knowing Localthunk, that is canon aint it

[strange compass]

Kinda crazy how there's no AI thing yet that can delete screenshots you tell it to

AI be doing everything except things that will be useful

[solid bronze]

if yuri exists, so does yaoi
blueprint brainstorm = baron mime

[noble mango]

there is

but when ur talking hallucinations

go ahead and pray it doesn;t delete your important stuff also

[quick trout]

hello i'm trying to have a better naneinf (plasma white stake unseeded) , does anyone know any important staistics that i should be tracking (like which ante i got certain important things, how much money i generated etc) also any qol mods which keep track of how much money jokers have generated in total or other things like that

[strange compass]

?

[solid bronze]

pretty sure you should hit the naneinf before like, ante 25? 26?

i don't remember

[strange compass]

Could you elaborate

[tight pike]

25 is impossible iirc

[noble mango]

Ai often make mistake

as of now

[strange compass]

Watch Balatro Uni videos on it. He goes in much more detail

[solid bronze]

well for mods i use joker display as an qol

[tight pike]

You need to focus way more on scoring as soon as you hit ante 12 since that shit just gets like 5x more difficult

[noble mango]

tip on gold stake ante 38 run?

[tight pike]

Ante 38?

Brother U playing Cryptid?

[solid bronze]

my best pc score is e55 thanks to baronmime

[noble mango]

no

[tight pike]

I reached e18 I believe lemme check

[solid bronze]

STANDARD PACKS DO NOT EXIST

[willow frost]

why ante 38 specifically lol

[noble mango]

the killscreen

[quick trout]

but like is there anything i should keep track of in a spreadsheet

[willow frost]

you can get to ante 39 too

[noble mango]

ante 39+ score req is nan

[tight pike]

Dont mind the fact I unlocked all (I currently am c++ ing p2)

[noble mango]

praying to the rng
unless specific seeds

[quick trout]

i feel like most seeds are possible if you play correctly (if they have a post ante 12ish voucher skip)

[solid bronze]

FINALLY got driver's active

[noble mango]

wha

RIFF RAFF CAN MAKE PHOTOCHAD?!?!?!

[solid bronze]

yea

2 commons

do i sacrifice abstract joker

nvm i have enough scoring

can i beat gold stake blue in less than 4 hours?

(i can't)

[manic talon]

Dont think you need to if you have any planet levels

[stone shell]

obviously sacrifice supernova

:clueless:

[solid bronze]

yea i had like, lvl 23 pair

best wee joker ever

[stone shell]

every journey to greatness begins with a single step

[solid bronze]

i know he'll carry that run

[still current]

[solid bronze]

lvl1 vs lvl 10

[shell dagger]

yooo temperance then ankh 🔥

[noble mango]

mad

[fervent pebble]

can you mod on macos

aw

ante 1 green joker and i cant afford grabber

[manic latch]

We are all clowns for playing balatro...

We are the jesters playing the king's game

[manic talon]

No thats the jokers

[manic latch]

Btw, got any other game reccomendations on the app store? Games from PC ported to the app store?

[viral raft]

Good morning folks

I hope yall have a great day

[manic talon]

Peglin

StS1 is also on the app store, i think

[ivory portal]

My temparance

[orchid comet]

do i buy the eternal hologram

[ivory portal]

😍😍😍😍

[orchid comet]

tryna unlock all decks rn black blue orange stake ones left

[stone shell]

vros gone mad

[echo sphinx]

susge atm but u could

[stone shell]

i personally wouldnt but you can if you wanted to

[orchid comet]

ur pfp is cool

[manic latch]

Lemme search it

[stone shell]

thanks

[tight pike]

Ok what the fuck
The description of flower pot needs to be changed

[ivory portal]

YOOO

that beautiful

Ice cream always got the prettiest colours

[tight pike]

It should be "SCORING diamond, club, heart and spade card"

Currently it just says "X3 Mult if hand contains diamond, club, heart and spade card" implying they just need to be there not even needing to score

[orchid comet]

some jokers are just trial and error like that

[tight pike]

Yes but I still think it should be changed since I kinda hoped I could win atleast one more round with flower pot

._.

God I hate Black Deck

[fervent pebble]

am i doomed

you have no real jokers and will die ante 8

[rancid gull]

This isn’t terrible

[tight pike]

No

[rancid gull]

One xmult joker and you’re set

[tight pike]

Green Joker is fucking amazing

Yeah xmult is all u need

[fringe nebula]

no

you just need a blackboard

[manic talon]

One blackboard/card sharp fixes all this

[fervent pebble]

true

[manic talon]

Honestly ramen would too

[fringe nebula]

that is true

actually

burglar yoo

too

[tight pike]

Nah

[fringe nebula]

oh right

banner

[tight pike]

The 3rd joker (forgot the name)

[fringe nebula]

well, i think burglar worth more than banner if you have high level pair

[tight pike]

Its a shame you cant get rid off the banner

[tight pike]

Or you could spam high card

Oh yeah btw only one of those levels was from space joker

And it was on the straight

[green vale]

Playing balatro on the steam deck is such a vibe

[stone shell]

burger is basically multiplication for pairs

[stone shell]

stunted

[green vale]

The fucks this?

[fervent pebble]

is this enough for now or will it kill me

[ivory portal]

Bad decision

I CANT FUCKING BEAT RED DECK

A RED DECK

[fervent pebble]

red deck is easy

[ivory portal]

It's taking me so long

[green vale]

Maybe i should stop using Zodiac deck

I barely get any jokers

[stuck dagger]

uhh what am I supposed to do with this

[fervent pebble]

oh your situation is worse than mine

[ivory portal]

New run

[fervent pebble]

good luck

[echo sphinx]

get steel in the deck idk

[vernal breach]

Game is ragebaiting me

[echo sphinx]

low rank polychrome is best but its polychrome

[stuck dagger]

any tip to get out of 4/-1 joker slots

[echo sphinx]

no

[fervent pebble]

the game keeps giving me perishable photochad

🥹

[stuck dagger]

[echo sphinx]

you're stuckw ith it

[fervent pebble]

do i take boot over arrow

[vernal breach]

Yes

[fervent pebble]

alr

[echo sphinx]

WOAH uhh

h m

[echo sphinx]

ye why not

[fervent pebble]

eternals are the bane of my existance

[tired marsh]

[fervent pebble]

im stuck with banner as my +chip this sucks

[echo sphinx]

monis

[fervent pebble]

thank you

[manic talon]

Do you even have any levels to do photochad

[fervent pebble]

some

idk i think i die either way lol

[unborn cliff]

show hand levels

[tranquil umbra]

Sure man thanks I guess

[zinc sigil]

When do you play this?

Cause u dont get paid for discards

[tranquil umbra]

Good with rebate/yorick

[strange compass]

This only removes one hand size

[tranquil umbra]

Also green deck

[zinc sigil]

Oh yea yorick

Ok thanks

[fervent pebble]

is eternal burglar worth it with wee joker

[versed sable]

balatrodle but pain

[fervent pebble]

i got it in 5 because of the ||red card|| hint

[versed sable]

i don't know the ||price of things|| and i forgot that ||scaling downwards counts qwq||

[fervent pebble]

they should add a permanent category

[green vale]

I want to run a straight flush build but I fucking doubt it'll work all the time

[fervent pebble]

flush five would work better

[green vale]

Flush five- just say flush please

[molten thicket]

f5

[foggy bane]

theres a play to be made here

[fervent pebble]

what

[green vale]

Unless I'm missing something

[warped moth]

:clueless:

[fervent pebble]

flush five of a kind

😭

[green vale]

Ah

[molten thicket]

flush five is a thing btw

5 identical cards, suit and rank

[gusty vapor]

Can I ask for run help here? Just got a quick question

[green vale]

I never got a five of a kind yet lol

[foggy bane]

thats exactly what tis chanel is for

[gusty vapor]

Do I take ecto?

[fervent pebble]

wee joker start killed by 0 multi im gonna lose it

[molten thicket]

damn

are you dead if you sell bean

[gusty vapor]

Absolutely not

[molten thicket]

troub?

[gusty vapor]

Maybe

[molten thicket]

if you can you should sell bean

[green vale]

Well I'm still new-ish to balatro despite me playing for a year now

So any advice on how to build my deck well would be cool

[molten thicket]

and dna but your card volume is lacking

[solid bronze]

stuck on gold stake blue deck

[molten thicket]

so prob keep dna

WAIT

have you ectoed before @gusty vapor

[gusty vapor]

Playing card is awesome

Yeah once

This ecto is -2 hand size now

[molten thicket]

don't take it then

[gusty vapor]

Disaapointing

[warped moth]

Money is everything
If you have money you can buy arcana packs, standard packs, reroll for good stuff...

[molten thicket]

usually a 2nd ecto isn't helping you

[warped moth]

Also don't underestimate Strength

[green vale]

Hm

I see

[molten thicket]

most of the time it hurts you

[warped moth]

I absolutely did at first, lol

[gusty vapor]

Thanks for the help mane

[green vale]

How so

[warped moth]

The main idea is to stay above the interest cap of ending a round with a minimum of $25 to get an extra $5 every round because of it. That's $5 per round you wouldn't get otherwise!

Which adds up to a lot of money!

[warped moth]

I underestimated how much value you can get from increasing a card's rank by 1

[green vale]

So, get rich, stay rich, buy shit, win runs

[molten thicket]

bars

[warped moth]

Hell yes

[fervent pebble]

everytime i see mail in its perishable

this game despises me

[molten thicket]

perishable mail in is still amazing

[warped moth]

^

5 rounds is less than what is usually needed for rebate to singlehandedly get you interest capped

[scarlet plinth]

I am probably incapable of facing the plant

[fervent pebble]

i guess

[molten thicket]

id rather mail in be perishable than scalers

[echo sphinx]

matador will give me $8 each right so its free right

[fervent pebble]

you have no real jokers and will die ante 10 or whatever

[molten thicket]

matador works on tooth right

[molten thicket]

its white stake i think they'll be fine for 2-3 more antes

[fervent pebble]

i dont think ive ever gotten use out of matador except for daggering it

[warped moth]

Keep that Justice until you need it- oh wait you're ante 9

[scarlet plinth]

Sock and buskin be doing crazy numbers tho

[warped moth]

Not as far as I'm aware :(

[grizzled robin]

its honestly decent sometimes

[fervent pebble]

true

[grizzled robin]

you can squeeze a good 24 dollars early game assuming u dont need all hands for scoring

[echo sphinx]

does it

[molten thicket]

why do newer ppl like pareidolia so much

[echo sphinx]

face card highroll

[warped moth]

Cool joker ability 😌

[narrow scroll]

i think hit the road is my favourite joker in terms of design
favourite joker will always be bones but

[echo sphinx]

paradolia = business card, reserved

[molten thicket]

yeah but they take it like if they don't have it their photochad is useless

[echo sphinx]

bruh

[warped moth]

^
Basically pareidolia is liked because there's so many things you can do with face cards

Lol

[fervent pebble]

do hook discards count for mail in

[scarlet plinth]

I vividly recall that when I first took Pareiodolia I was so hyped. My next boss was the Plant, never sold a joker so fast.

[vernal breach]

Since when does riffraff generate editions

[molten thicket]

hey at least they know to sell parei before plant

unlike me..

[warped moth]

Oh yeah it can do that
One time it generated a negative for me, iirc

[vernal breach]

Yes

[warped moth]

Though that must be pretty fucking rare

[molten thicket]

yeah

[warped moth]

™

[molten thicket]

hook discards count as normal discards

[vernal breach]

I got a poly and I was like whatz

[fervent pebble]

cool

[molten thicket]

so purple seals, joker effects (even trading card) work

[warped moth]

Rebate somehow being even more goated 😌

[molten thicket]

thats so swag

[narrow scroll]

rare joker that makes all your cards count as all number cards
odd todd and even steven would give you +4 and +31 chips per scoring card with it for example

[molten thicket]

take the flush joker though

[solid bronze]

it's the spawn of satan

[scarlet plinth]

Its an old run. I ended up getting Blueprint later. My one invisible joker copied other invisible joker so I had to wait before getting 3 BPs

[warped moth]

I didn't even know they can do that

Should've guessed they do actually

Very cool :o

[fervent pebble]

having 4 discards on orange stake feels so nice

oh hell yeah

[ancient gyro]

be the change you want to see

[echo sphinx]

owo

icb this is how i win black deck

stack monis

[rocky helm]

guys theoretically if you get every joker EXCEPT cavendish, will it force cavendish to appear even if you have gros michel

[echo sphinx]

no

[fringe nebula]

no

[rocky helm]

so it will just give you jimbo??

[echo sphinx]

i won with the power of monis

[fringe nebula]

uncommons will be jimbo

[rocky helm]

oh

[echo sphinx]

jimbo the goat

[rocky helm]

ok marble + stone + liscence is just cheating

[fringe nebula]

but the common rarity ones are guaranteed to be cav/michel

[echo sphinx]

i got it late

anything else could fit that slot

[rocky helm]

mmmmmmmmmmm

[echo sphinx]

lets go gambling

[fringe nebula]

judgement is the play

[rocky helm]

do i take buffoon and arcana

no buffoon

?

[fervent pebble]

we love space joker

[fringe nebula]

if judgement give a mult joker to survive ante 1

i'd say save money

[rocky helm]

grimbo my beloved

[ancient gyro]

judgment and buffoon depending on ju-

[echo sphinx]

this is a start indeed

[ancient gyro]

next round

[fringe nebula]

ok yeah don't open buffoon

[echo sphinx]

wow

thats an instant win

[rocky helm]

mmmmmmmmmm

do i light them up

yeah i think so bcuz it will reverse damage from hologram

[ancient gyro]

"damage"

[rocky helm]

half or no?

[ancient gyro]

not necessary

[rocky helm]

ok

[fringe nebula]

no

i'd open celestial for potential mercury tho, assuming matador will give you money this ante

[keen pilot]

Right, so um.. is this normal after naneinf? xP

[rocky helm]

its just so peak

[solid bronze]

NOT PERKEO AGAIN

GIVE ME EVERY OTHER LEGENDARY BUT NOT PERKEO

[orchid comet]

SINCE WHEN

[echo sphinx]

rip

[echo sphinx]

lol triple burglar

[ancient gyro]

best card in the game? 😲 🗣️

[echo sphinx]

u haev to win this

[orchid comet]

tryna unlock invis joker just had 13 hands happen

[rocky helm]

should i trigger the ability for matador?

will grimbo scale

[keen pilot]

Good question

[ancient gyro]

put score on the board first to make your decision

[fringe nebula]

if you need all 4 hands to score 2000, no

[orchid comet]

wont scale but its fun

[rocky helm]

yeah

[orchid comet]

why do u guys have

♤ ♧

roles

[rocky helm]

boosting

[fringe nebula]

check server roles

[ancient gyro]

vanity roles

[orchid comet]

ohhh alr

[rocky helm]

oh, my, god

[fervent pebble]

is it too late for pants

i have no multi dude 💔

[rocky helm]

do i take it, or do i take spectral first

[ancient gyro]

what boss blind

[rocky helm]

house

[ancient gyro]

spectral

[rocky helm]

ok

talisman right

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[rocky helm]

alr

[ancient gyro]

9 of spades

[rocky helm]

do i take the standard too

[grizzled robin]

mid ass joker tho

[versed sable]

w

[rocky helm]

or save for interest

[fringe nebula]

def talisman

[molten thicket]

boy do NOT diss my htr

[ancient gyro]

it's decent including its obvious workaround

[fringe nebula]

save money

[rocky helm]

alr

[red sparrow]

How do I beat 15 minute city (I’m bad)

[narrow scroll]

true
i really like the art and the reference though

[rocky helm]

take these chips for a bit?

[ancient gyro]

if needed

[rocky helm]

yeah

i need them

i think i take arcana first just in case

[ancient gyro]

preferably not

[versed sable]

i have reached my final form i guess

[solid bronze]

I AM SCARED

[fringe nebula]

you have two things you can do
-scale the bus
-use a strat that doesn't require bus at all

like 4oak or 3oak

[ancient gyro]

or a different mult joker

[red sparrow]

59 HAND SIZE!!!

[rocky helm]

is fist an option?

[fringe nebula]

yes

if you really need some extra score

[rocky helm]

should i keep banner just in case

[fringe nebula]

banner for temperance value

[rocky helm]

yeah

[versed sable]

bean

[solid bronze]

aand yeah

[fringe nebula]

if not, eternal fist is probably worth it

[rocky helm]

tbh i might skip

i can get a card adder

[fringe nebula]

but what if

you get hex and sigil

[rocky helm]

yeah

i should play it save

[red sparrow]

I don’t see no fucking bean there

[rocky helm]

then again

[fringe nebula]

you sell the bean after doing crimson heart bug

[red sparrow]

Oh

[fringe nebula]

that's why there's no bean

[fervent pebble]

is fullhouse more reliable for beating ante 1 small blind than flush

in one hand

[red sparrow]

Yes

[fringe nebula]

flush is more reliable

[rocky helm]

tbh i play it safe

[fringe nebula]

trying to draw 3 cards of the same rank at ante 1 is just

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1121085971325272224.png?v=1&size=48&quality=lossless

[lime remnant]

feeling like gouging my eye

[smoky niche]

you only ever go for fullhouse if you start with a decently high 3oak

[fervent pebble]

mm

[red sparrow]

Hoping for a ouija because that will make 15 minute city easy af

[rocky helm]

or it can make it hard

[stark charm]

ascended straight flush

[fervent pebble]

ante 1 and 2 feels like this regardless

[rocky helm]

"you want a straight flush? you don't have a moon, poor you"

[stark charm]

i DONT want straight flush , my straight are level 28

[worldly depot]

is he too op

[rocky helm]

sell banner

[rocky helm]

that's a rare

[worldly depot]

okay thank you i will change

the only issue is the rest of the cards ive already made are rares 😭

[solid bronze]

ante 5, i have no Xmult

[fringe nebula]

too op

[solid bronze]

i might be cooked

[red sparrow]

Cooked

[worldly depot]

just start praying atp

[fringe nebula]

take hiero

[rocky helm]

do i sell banner?

[solid bronze]

small issue

[green vale]

what's the point of hiero again?

[solid bronze]

-1 ante -1 hand/discard

[green vale]

but why.

[solid bronze]

more scaling

more deck fix

more planet levels

etc

[fringe nebula]

desperate situation

if you can't beat the score req, you can take hiero

[solid bronze]

bus was rental

i'd die on big blind anyway

[fervent pebble]

if you get supernova early what hand do you guys go for

[ancient gyro]

unnecessary

[ancient gyro]

2oak

[solid bronze]

pair or 2pair

[fringe nebula]

you know it

pair

[fervent pebble]

🥹

pair slop

[solid bronze]

TALKING ABOUT SUPERNOVA

[rocky helm]

way ahead of you, pal

[fervent pebble]

ur welcome

[green vale]

im curious

[solid bronze]

my bro i'm playing since like, 5 hours or so and went from red to gold stake on blue

[green vale]

are high card builds actually viable?

[fringe nebula]

yes

high card builds are viable

[solid bronze]

yea

high cards are and will be viable

[fervent pebble]

always the perishable duo

the elephant emojis are killing me

[fringe nebula]

should've been perishable campfire instead

i want the game to punish you for taking rare skip actually

[fervent pebble]

rare tag on small blind

[rocky helm]

you forgot the, 😔 ✌️

[solid bronze]

only skip tag i take is usually investment if ante 1 small blind

[fringe nebula]

with only $5 in you pocket? hell nah

doing ante 2 small blind and build up interest is better

[fervent pebble]

meh

[nimble vault]

Can someone help me afford cavendish

[fervent pebble]

gambling ❤️ ❤️

[rocky helm]

so like,,,,matador,,,works on the flint

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[fringe nebula]

i hope you have enough chips to survive the flint

do you?

[solid bronze]

I'M NEVER BEATING FLUSH AS MY MOST USED HAND

[echo sphinx]

i need a counter

[fringe nebula]

winning

[rocky helm]

so am i cooked

[astral mist]

❔

[rocky helm]

i think the straight might win

[astral mist]

just pairspam

straights are the best btw

[smoky niche]

4 mult from fist putting in the work

[fringe nebula]

yes you are

[rocky helm]

bro

i hate the flint

[echo sphinx]

how many times did i build interest on green deck

[rocky helm]

i died

[fringe nebula]

you died to flint because all of your chips are from planet levels

[solid bronze]

we found the runner

[fringe nebula]

so

[smoky niche]

i love it when matador gives me 32 dollars on a boss blind

and then i sell him instantly

[rocky helm]

ok, my chips are now from blue joker.

[ancient gyro]

I wouldve been more money conservative and considered castle from a. earlier ante

[fervent pebble]

thinking emoji

[fringe nebula]

honestly, now i kind of understand why you are struggling to beat orange stake

🗿

[solid bronze]

yeahh i am not beating flush allegations

[green vale]

The Wheel of Fortune is cool

[rocky helm]

so like,, we're winning

[green vale]

i pick it everytime i see it

[fervent pebble]

idk 👽

[rocky helm]

do i undo or no

is this ok vor

[fringe nebula]

completely unrelated to what i'm talking about

[rocky helm]

guys

is this fine or should i bring back supernofva

wait there's a grimbo in shop i should be fine right?

[fervent pebble]

wheel of fort

every time

[rancid gull]

Rip that immolate baby

[fervent pebble]

[rocky helm]

[rancid gull]

Grimbo is chilling

[rancid gull]

You got your xmult

[molten steppe]

my highest run yay i have 82 hours on the game

[rancid gull]

Kinda goated ngl

Try to pickup another mult tho to buffer for Grimbo

[solid bronze]

i only need C + and C ++

[rancid gull]

Popcorn would be good

[fervent pebble]

this guy doesnt gamble

[rancid gull]

Legit

C+ is more annoying to do than ++

You have to play on decks you don’t like

[fringe nebula]

yes i'm a gold stake winstreaker and not a gambler indeed

[rancid gull]

At least you can throw flower pot in with your winning combo

Or some other dumb fuck ass shot

[solid bronze]

well i already did black so only nebula from those 'hard' ones

[rocky helm]

naner 🥹

[rancid gull]

Plasma is pretty decently hard

[smoky niche]

tfw michel sticks with you until ante 4 and shows up in shop instantly after dying

[fervent pebble]

imagine that wof polychrome hitting tho

[rocky helm]

ok then

[solid bronze]

already gold staked thanks to wee

[fringe nebula]

don't care, what matters more is consistency in giving result rather than spinning a wheel for nothing

[smoky niche]

plasma was annoying

[rancid gull]

Then you’re probably goated

Nebula is the easiest

Of those three

[smoky niche]

but i had a run where i got 3 burnt jokers and got pair to level 61

[rocky helm]

we might be doing something

[solid bronze]

nebula grind later it is

[rancid gull]

Fuck nebula

It’s just annoying

[cloud sinew]

only the 2 grindiest achievements

[fringe nebula]

a crazy problem solved by a crazy solution

+16 square
x10.25 campfire
x2.3 constellation
x3.5 hologram

[solid bronze]

yay

[rancid gull]

Also, hologram would be an amazing pickup

Adding more cards to your deck gives you more chips

[smoky niche]

how do you even hit this 💀

[rancid gull]

And more xmult

So I’m blessing you

[fringe nebula]

just some math shenanigans

[fervent pebble]

we all skipping both here right

[smoky niche]

like realistically getting to this gamestate seems unrealistic

[cloud sinew]

im basically never doing this

[solid bronze]

do i just

[fringe nebula]

x10.25 campfire is very doable

[cloud sinew]

its not meant to happen naturally, the goal is to force it

[rancid gull]

We all skipping for the rerolls start at 0 right???

[ancient gyro]

who's this we

[fervent pebble]

yes you get it

🥹

[cloud sinew]

why would you bloodstone here

[balmy flame]

I havent played an ante 1 small blind in agess

[smoky niche]

we all skipping for free foil joker

[ancient gyro]

sometimes at ante 5-7 on anaglyph

[rancid gull]

Cause bloodstone is so awesome

[cloud sinew]

your winrate is 2%, guaranteed

[rancid gull]

Actually not bad sometimes

[smoky niche]

do we play the game

[balmy flame]

abso-fuckin-lutely

[solid bronze]

it hit 6 from 7 times

[rancid gull]

Not the most optimal skip

But a foil card can be helpful

[balmy flame]

leave

[cloud sinew]

if joker tags werent so bad then holo would be worth it fairly often

[zinc sigil]

but the leaf is so disgusting I had nat neg mime blueprint dna and like 30 red seal steel kings

[cloud sinew]

and you couldnt sell a single joker?

[smoky niche]

it should give a foil buffoon pack or something

[zinc sigil]

isnt theleaf the face card debuff

[rancid gull]

Wait don’t tell me you died to lead

[cloud sinew]

nope

[rancid gull]

Oh

[cloud sinew]

thats Plant

[orchid comet]

needle who?

[zinc sigil]

oh mb lol

[solid bronze]

my man you're the one who sees that 'meme' here

[balmy flame]

lol

[rancid gull]

Okay, that would’ve been bad lol

If you died to leaf because of that

[solid bronze]

I KNEW IT

I KNEW BLOODSTONE WAS WORTH IT

[balmy flame]

ok

[zinc sigil]

nono was plant

[balmy flame]

right

[rancid gull]

ZAMNNN

[balmy flame]

your luck is goated

[rancid gull]

GAMBLING PAYS OFF

[fringe nebula]

now grimbo is just dead

[rancid gull]

You will never have money

[balmy flame]

lucky cards:

[rancid gull]

Unless if you have some lucky ass cards or sum

[ancient gyro]

the head

[fervent pebble]

amazing

[rancid gull]

The head so amazing

[solid bronze]

one head and i'm dead

[balmy flame]

the plant shivers when chicot loses his temper

[solid bronze]

well one just got me 20 bucks

[balmy flame]

what if you hit a neg luchador

[fringe nebula]

watch as this guy die because of the lack and econ, and the lack of chips

[worldly depot]

would this be viable in any way

[balmy flame]

no

[solid bronze]

naner died

[balmy flame]

actually

maybe

[fervent pebble]

the game has given me 0 +chip jokers

[rancid gull]

This is actually op ngl lol

[fervent pebble]

i would love some chips rn

[rancid gull]

High card would go crazy with this

Pair would go crazy with this

[ancient gyro]

so I've heard

[solid bronze]

I HOPE WHOEVER PRAYED FOR MY DOWNFALL JUST GET AN O- no

[frank notch]

make it every 3 unscored cards and its balanced

[solid bronze]

wait

i can't count

[fringe nebula]

do you know how to get chips?

that's right. It's called playing blinds to get money instead of skipping

[solid bronze]

i'm a balatro fan - i can't fucking count

[cloud sinew]

this is so fallacious omg. youre gambling because of this specific scenario, but every other time youve made this choice and it's not turned out this way you just ignore it

[fervent pebble]

ur so on my ass dude 😭 ive skipped 1 blind the entire run

[cloud sinew]

balatro players never learn

[fringe nebula]

that is reasonable atleast

[worthy tinsel]

Indeed

[fringe nebula]

now you just need to get max interest

[rancid gull]

Bp > bs

Coldest take known ever

But yes

[solid bronze]

well, i am a balatro player after all

[fringe nebula]

brainstorm is more fun to play around that blueprint

[rancid gull]

Is it?

Why?

[ancient gyro]

making fist/stm scribbly + xmult compatible

[cloud sinew]

that's not a property of brainstorm over blueprint though

[balmy flame]

when does balatro get an update

[solid bronze]

easiest skips of my life 🤑

[cloud sinew]

that's something they both share

[cloud sinew]

later

[ancient gyro]

never said it was

[rancid gull]

Tomorrow

[ancient gyro]

im saying it's a workaround

[balmy flame]

oh hell yeah

[fringe nebula]

so many people skipping today 🥀

[worldly depot]

holyyyy

[ancient gyro]

small legs

[worldly depot]

balala tomorrow

[cosmic sun]

eugh

[rancid gull]

Dude!? Insane pull

[cloud sinew]

skips 2 rounds of econ, scaling, and 2 shops
proceeds to blame the loss on not finding xmults, not scoring enough, etc

[balmy flame]

balatrero balala

[fringe nebula]

Dude!? Insane pull

[solid bronze]

sister it's obvious sarcasm

[fervent pebble]

balatro players when jokes:

[rancid gull]

Average bloodstone W

[cloud sinew]

im autistic twin, it was not that obvious

[balmy flame]

listen bub, we dont "joke" here

[cloud sinew]

text is an inherently toneless* medium

[balmy flame]

gambling is SERIOUS

[cloud sinew]

you need to explicitly state it if you want people to not be confused

[fervent pebble]

ive seen every single xmult and zero +chip cards

[cosmic sun]

balatro players got one joke

🤔

[fervent pebble]

👽

[fringe nebula]

take hierophant for desperate chips

[balmy flame]

is there a benefit to having 2 showman

[lime remnant]

always the chips

[fringe nebula]

also celestial ig

[solid bronze]

do i just

[cloud sinew]

the effect does not stack, if that's what youre meaning

[vernal breach]

Most gamblers quit before the jackpot

[lime remnant]

the benefit is that you waste your money and joker slot

[balmy flame]

well

[worthy tinsel]

Yeah

[balmy flame]

what if one is negative

[rancid gull]

Better than acrobat honesty

[cloud sinew]

then you have a negative joker, that is the only difference

[solid bronze]

i mean, 2 boss blinds will kill me if i get em ante 7

[rancid gull]

If u play flushes I mean

[balmy flame]

hmm

[solid bronze]

all players quit before hitting big

[rancid gull]

The one time where flushes are goated

[keen pilot]

What is the required amount of mult on plasma deck for naneinf?
ik it's somewhere around e150

[balmy flame]

it is your mom lul

[cloud sinew]

~3e154

[solid bronze]

THANK GOD

[smoky niche]

get oxed

[cloud sinew]

get oxxed idiot /j

[terse dock]

that would be what the planets are for

[ancient gyro]

lilo needs a 67 joke embedded in your messages to figure out if it was satirical

[terse dock]

Can ox change mid-ante

[fervent pebble]

do u think i havent been trying

[terse dock]

Yes

[cloud sinew]

no

[keen pilot]

So it is basically just half the amount of e's, huh?

[fringe nebula]

yes

[fervent pebble]

my planet packs have also given me next to 0 pair cards

[solid bronze]

now like, verdant leaf kills me

[ancient gyro]

if you reroll back into ox yeah

[cloud sinew]

yes, that's effectively what squaring your score does

[worthy tinsel]

Yes
Your oops will die, but thays ok bc you have photochad

[cosmic sun]

balatro players know two builds

[solid bronze]

i trust you spy tf2

[fringe nebula]

pair and flush

[cosmic sun]

[fringe nebula]

obviously

[solid bronze]

photochad and bloodstone ofc

[cloud sinew]

i.e (10^10)^2 = 10^20

[cosmic sun]

the more derogatory version

[rancid gull]

Strush build

[fervent pebble]

oops

[solid bronze]

i have a sun in my hand, i can win this

[fervent pebble]

jesus christ finally

[fringe nebula]

balatro out of context : i have a sun in my hand

[fervent pebble]

first +chip at ante 6 🥹

[rancid gull]

Bro if you made it that far ur planet levels are carrying a bit lol

[cosmic sun]

blue joker is still in my top jokers

[rancid gull]

And your xmult

[cosmic sun]

I feel like he wouldn't be complaining if he was coasting by

[solid bronze]

I CAN NOT WIN THIS

[cosmic sun]

Then again he may not know his scoring

[solid bronze]

I FLEW TOO CLOSE TO THE SUN AGAIN

[worthy tinsel]

How

[fervent pebble]

barely survived the past like 3 antes

[cosmic sun]

Or potential with nova

[worthy tinsel]

You had the sun

[cloud sinew]

WHEN WILL YOU LEARN /ref

[cosmic sun]

Yea

[solid bronze]

and all the other hearts stopped existing

[fervent pebble]

hit the road is hard carrying with rng

[cosmic sun]

Also L

[terse dock]

15 seconds detention for you

[rancid gull]

Cerulean bell was a nasty one to roll ngl

[ancient gyro]

history repeats itself

[fervent pebble]

what joker do i replace

[cloud sinew]

explodes your phone

[cosmic sun]

Tale as old as time song old as rhyme

[narrow scroll]

never ever will i be satisfied with beating a blind in 2 hands

[terse dock]

Yeowch!

[ancient gyro]

lemon better than lime

[fringe nebula]

ooof

[cosmic sun]

What's Nova at? Surely it can replace Half

[cloud sinew]

🐴

[fervent pebble]

35

[cosmic sun]

Half gone

[fervent pebble]

alr thanks

[worthy tinsel]

lmao
the run didnt want to win

[cosmic sun]

Nova approaches 40

All the struggling you did really helped Nova

[cosmic sun]

I call it cosmic justice

[solid bronze]

at this rate i will never get C+ let alone C++

[fervent pebble]

truth

[ancient gyro]

not with that game plan

[cosmic sun]

They could but it would take longer 💀

Sorry ahh gameplay

[ancient gyro]

considering they're seeking two specific jokers that can't leave their roster to make it work

🥀

[terse dock]

The two specific jokers are oops and Chad

[ancient gyro]

o

ops

[fervent pebble]

godly shop

[fringe nebula]

well, let's take a step back and do less goofy things

[solid bronze]

not until i do gold stake blue

[ancient gyro]

that's probably out of reach

[fringe nebula]

trying to force bloodstone build while you already have commited into eternal rental grimbo for example

[frank notch]

you CANNOT force builds in balatro

unless youre extremely rich

[solid bronze]

i hope you die in hell green joker

[fringe nebula]

pants start is pretty good

[worthy tinsel]

Or lucky

[frank notch]

thats just coming across it

[worthy tinsel]

ye

[solid bronze]

watch how i die cuz no Xmult exists

[ancient gyro]

you died with an xmult

earlier

[fringe nebula]

that's because you entered ante 4 with only $7 🥀

[worldly depot]

do u guys have any good joker ideas

[fervent pebble]

high priestess is so nice with campfire

[terse dock]

an xmult

[solid bronze]

because as always
econ does not exist when i need it

[fringe nebula]

uh

[ancient gyro]

krill?

[terse dock]

Brother the econ is the fact youre on ante 4

Have you not been saving

[fervent pebble]

ok nvm eye killed me

[solid bronze]

save what if my every hand is needed to beat the blind 💔

[ancient gyro]

they were rolling down for bloopstone

[terse dock]

interest dingleberry

[solid bronze]

two completly different runs now btw

[ancient gyro]

interestcappinator

[solid bronze]

i'm just resetting till investment tag idc

[ancient gyro]

same issue, different runs

[fringe nebula]

show gameover screen pls?

[solid bronze]

i just resetted the run

[fringe nebula]

or maybe you already reset which is fair

[cosmic sun]

[solid bronze]

if i see a run going nowhere i ctrl A

like what is this

[cosmic sun]

two good jokers

[rancid gull]

the discard is not bad tbh

[fringe nebula]

that's fine

[rancid gull]

egg is fine

[rancid gull]

you have 5 hands

you will most likely win big blind

[frank notch]

just dont get the eye

[fervent pebble]

true

[cosmic sun]

you want c++ but cant handle eternals

[solid bronze]

time to lock in pairs

[solid bronze]

well sort of i don't need the egg anymore

[fervent pebble]

the eye is coming for you too

[solid bronze]

calling it now, i will die by my own greed

[terse dock]

ante 2 round 2

its over

[worldly depot]

nah just keep it for the love of the game

[fervent pebble]

castle my beloved

[solid bronze]

i did the funny polish number thing

[terse dock]

1337

[fervent pebble]

diamond debuff boss with castle targetting diamonds

🥀

[solid bronze]

if i can die with perkeo, i can die any run
even if undieable, i'd still die

[frank notch]

do i take certificate here or no

[fervent pebble]

die with mr bones

[safe loom]

get hologram if u do

[frank notch]

oh yeah ill just magically summon it

[safe loom]

exactally

[cosmic sun]

You can

[safe loom]

tap into that arcane ability

[fringe nebula]

there's director's cut at ante 3 though?

[safe loom]

called uncommon tags

[solid bronze]

this time i have econ

[worthy tinsel]

sure why not

[fervent pebble]

werent you dogging on me for low eco the whole time

what did u expect

[solid bronze]

do i just now pray

[smoky niche]

director's cut is almost always worth taking imo because its such a run saver

[solid bronze]

this time this run may go somewhere?

[fervent pebble]

yeah i get that now

[smoky niche]

what is this

[fervent pebble]

is it worth taking wasteful and killing my eco

[fringe nebula]

no

[terse dock]

Go next

[fringe nebula]

but maybe

[smoky niche]

red deck already has plenty of discards imo

you dont need that much castle scaling

[fringe nebula]

depends on how you can somehow get back to max interest

[solid bronze]

death on ante 6 run

[fervent pebble]

also should i skip green

[smoky niche]

eternal riffraff and eternal egg are certainly choices to make

[fervent pebble]

idk i dont really like green on red deck

[fringe nebula]

green castle is a synergy

[fervent pebble]

what

[smoky niche]

castle wants discards gang

green does not want discards

[cloud sinew]

i think its good to take green joker here, just use your discards sparingly (4 or 5 suits in hand only)

[solid bronze]

i might just take this as i lack levels in pair

[ancient gyro]

green can afford discards after a couple antes provided you get that far

and that

[cloud sinew]

you should take directors cut as you die to eye/needle/vessel

[solid bronze]

i'm dead anyway

[fervent pebble]

okay

[smoky niche]

we have two useless jokers right there

[solid bronze]

i am not beating 120k

[fervent pebble]

why do you have eternal egg

[solid bronze]

i'm just rerolling into investment tag 2

[cloud sinew]

you should try to play without forcing good starts

learning how to get runs going from bad starts will help you greatly in the long run

[ancient gyro]

win more than just the good runs

[cloud sinew]

if you cant win without there being a good start then youre not really learning much

being dependent on something like that suggests a weakness in a different area

that applies to everything in the meta; photochad is good, but it's not so good that photograph should be in your top 10 imo

[solid bronze]

to be completly fair i do not understand atleast 20% of what you mean

[fervent pebble]

its so tempting

[lime remnant]

so you understand 80%

[terse dock]

is this a good top 10

[lime remnant]

thats good

[ancient gyro]

im questioning one certain anomaly in particular but I can't say anything

[lime remnant]

what abt this

[cloud sinew]

youre reinforcing your weaknesses.
if youre struggling to win without having a good start (i.e investment tag), and you are rerolling for that good start, then you will never learn how to deal with bad starts as you aren't allowing runs to have worse starts to begin with

[fervent pebble]

i probably have the worst top 10 here

[terse dock]

this is an ascension climbing profile thats why fortune seller's high

[cloud sinew]

photo in top 10 but not chad is a very big red flag

[brave goblet]

realest

[lime remnant]

i cant find photo bro my bad

i mean chad

[solid bronze]

i might just uninstall the game

[terse dock]

Fortune seller's retroactivity makes it a good pick on early stakes

[lime remnant]

its always photo and not chad

[brave goblet]

all four suit jonkers

gearing up for ancient trust

[lime remnant]

but why is it a red flag

[cloud sinew]

your stats strongly suggest that you take photo more often than you take chad when it appears, and/or that you keep photo for longer than you keep chad

[terse dock]

Questionable

[cloud sinew]

because it strongly suggests that you take prospective photograph WAY more than you should

[fervent pebble]

i neglected scaling +multi for like half my playtime

[cloud sinew]

prospective chad is good because its so universal

while photograph is very niche

[lime remnant]

hmm

well its a different profile

[brave goblet]

My own stats are starting to skew but still

[edgy stone]

I always restart if cannot pass first round with 1 hand. Dont care if its a good or bad start

[cloud sinew]

not a single +mult scaler in your top 10...

[stone shell]

mine are still endlesspilled so its pretty inaccurate

[terse dock]

What in God's name

[fervent pebble]

yes 🤯 i just said that

[solid bronze]

should i just reset a profile if top 10 looks like this

[cloud sinew]

no you didnt

[brave goblet]

Why would you

[fringe nebula]

wtf?
🐴

[lime remnant]

well what about this profile

[worldly depot]

aha it does something now!

[brave goblet]

a rare in #1? heresy

[fringe nebula]

atleast this one doesn't look that horrible ig

[cloud sinew]

photograph as your 3rd is definitely a red flag still, i dont even have photo in my top 10, but it's better than your other profile.

[lime remnant]

hmm

[visual niche]

just barely beat the needle with a pair build 😭

[solid bronze]

best damn wraith of all time

[visual niche]

burglar did all the work

[wintry ice]

my top 1 on my painted++ profile is green joker somehow

[cloud sinew]

you opened a spectral 🥀

[lime remnant]

should i js kill that profile

[ancient gyro]

not surprised

[lime remnant]

the first one

[terse dock]

mf the red card is RIGHT THERE

[wintry ice]

ante 1 invis moment

[brave goblet]

what will killing the profile accomplish

[cloud sinew]

erasing the stats so they cant be shamed lol

[fringe nebula]

i
