RAHHHH

[eager summit]

i thought to myself, "can't i just play typecast as jokerless lite with this"

[cobalt ermine]

sell everything and blindly buy mime ofc

[cobalt ermine]

nope!

[eager summit]

why

[cobalt ermine]

doesn't stencil break when it sets your joker count to 0

[silent topaz]

stencil becomes useless at 0 joker slots

[eager summit]

oh

[cobalt ermine]

because it requires you to have empty slots

which typecast removes

[manic kettle]

Insane start

[atomic trout]

It is now

[eager summit]

small test for y'all, is this rank or suit

[manic kettle]

rank, diamonds go last in suit

[humble gulch]

No

[karmic skiff]

yes?

[humble gulch]

What about rough gem?

[echo sphinx]

NEVER FELT SO MONIS

[humble gulch]

Rough gem is a great econ joker

[eager summit]

schrödinger's packed wallet

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

@cobalt ermine THANK YOU

[cobalt ermine]

i take my thank yous in the form of lucky card proc

[untold onyx]

just won black deck gold stake

i understand the strat now, you can do anything if you're rich and have a lot of things covered in gold

[novel zephyr]

things like theese make me emotional

[untold onyx]

have you gotten past the plant already? you're free to go for at least 1 or 2 antes then i think

[minor portal]

why is smiley ahead of trib

[primal heath]

mr bones is there for emotional support

[novel zephyr]

ikr but he's still the MVP

[echo sphinx]

AFTER 5 GAMES BARONMIME IS HERE

or dont cuz its still not done ye

[quartz salmon]

Bless the stuntman for saving this rub

[minor portal]

sixth sense

[echo sphinx]

lol

[minor portal]

The ceremonial dagger has claimed another joker

[shell dagger]

I guess the scams get automodded now

[tranquil steppe]

Best rub ever

[dire sage]

Kill the needle

[round shadow]

is there any way to get past ante 39

like maybe utilizing mr. bones or multiple chicot bug?

[fringe nebula]

bones bug

[tranquil steppe]

Drugs

[quartz salmon]

Whoops run

[echo sphinx]

mod e309 into existence or bones bug

[dire sage]

Why what happens after ante 39

[round shadow]

alright

[tranquil steppe]

You die

[round shadow]

scoring requirement becomes so high you physically can't reach it

[dire sage]

Naneinf

[round shadow]

i wonder if multiple chicots on wall can make it lower though 🤔

[minor portal]

infinity isn't enough

Which sounds funny to say.

[dire sage]

What? 😭

[round shadow]

yup

[tranquil steppe]

Infinity is just a concept

[dire sage]

Then to infinity and beyond

[tranquil steppe]

Simmer down buzz

[fringe nebula]

almost like the game is telling me to win or something

[minor portal]

misprint carrying fr

[gilded path]

someone wanna help me? i downloaded cryptic and everythingelse neede for it but it crash when i open the game

[dire sage]

So the only way to actually win balatro is to just return to main menu after ante 8

[minor portal]

You should go to the modding channels for help.

[gilded path]

thx sorry i didnt know

[dire sage]

Does blueprint copy the same +mult the misprint gives that hand?

[shell dagger]

It doesnt

[round shadow]

they roll separately

[round shadow]

damn really?

[shell dagger]

half of nan is nan

[round shadow]

it makes sense but would be cool to see

[quartz salmon]

I don’t sell Perkeo right?

Or dna?

[shell dagger]

Sell dna

[cloud sinew]

it was perfect...

[fringe crest]

how do you use a lodestone

ik what it does

but how do you use it?

is it with a compass?

[cloud sinew]

what are you talking about

THIS IS BALATRO CHAT TWIN

[fringe crest]

oh

[round shadow]

probably look on the minecraft wiki for that one

[fringe crest]

same thing

yeah

[lost vault]

like th ebinding of isaac

[fringe crest]

no minecraft

[lost vault]

magnet tears

no

[fringe crest]

also yeah its a compass

[lost vault]

isaac

[fringe crest]

i watch tboi videos to go to sleep

[cloud sinew]

ew ew ew

[strange compass]

Abandoned GS done. Was harder than I thought it would be

[quartz salmon]

Ok now do I sell perkeo?

[shell dagger]

clearance sale tho 👀

[shell dagger]

honestly I thought those were cryptids before

perkeo prob goes

[atomic trout]

Damn the Wall

[eager summit]

i just beat omelette

all thanks to merry yorick

[quartz salmon]

I cheesed mine with wash

Swashbuckler

[strange compass]

What's the seed

[eager summit]

i've been trying to do that but never found swashbuckler

[manic kettle]

Is my Wee fairly big? or just average

[quartz salmon]

Uh ill tell u when i die, i wasn’t paying attention to the ante 8

[echo sphinx]

wee big

[quartz salmon]

Do u agree tho should i sell perkeo?

[strange compass]

Ye

[quartz salmon]

I don’t wanna mess this up, this is easily my luckiest seed

[eager summit]

has anyone naneinf on non-perishable yet

[cloud sinew]

yes

[eager summit]

show

[strange compass]

Perkero is only rlly useful if you are negging a Cryptid or something

At that point

Planets are good

[quartz salmon]

Should I use the planets or hope observatory appears

[round shadow]

pray for observatory

[strange compass]

Baron mime will take you for a bit

[eager summit]

i feel like negging a cryptid will end with you dying

[echo sphinx]

matador is c r a z y

[round shadow]

this is why we love head guys

[strange compass]

What should be getting negged in your opinion

[eager summit]

anything but a cryptid honestly

[quartz salmon]

Rage bait?

[strange compass]

I just posted a run where my Mat was able to activate 2 bosses in a row

[eager summit]

negging is the act of emotional manipulation, and cryptids are pretty dangerous

so don't

[strange compass]

I assumed you've deckfixed by now

[quartz salmon]

Um

[strange compass]

Death or Deja Vu can be nice too

[quartz salmon]

I’ve deckfixed enough

[lucid glacier]

what do i sell???

[quartz salmon]

Where I can guarantee the hand

[cloud sinew]

hack

[strange compass]

Hack unless you play like 4oak 2s everytime

[cloud sinew]

3oak 2s every time makes hack better than chad

[lucid glacier]

i play 5 of a kind 2s every time

[lucid glacier]

so sell chad?

[cloud sinew]

yes

[round shadow]

yup

[cloud sinew]

cant find the video but ive seen it

[lucid glacier]

would selling yorick be worth it?

[cloud sinew]

no

[lucid glacier]

ok

[cloud sinew]

youre at a point where triple copying yorick is probably better tbh

[lucid glacier]

yeah but i score enogh so i make wee joker bigger so i last longer

[ancient gyro]

exponential potential

so ive heard

[limber nova]

Holy stacked

[cloud sinew]

scaling Wee Joker more doesnt really matter at a certain point, which could very well already have happened. stacking xmult will eventually always outscale additive scaling on plasma

[eager summit]

i

uh

[lucid glacier]

its at 1440

[eager summit]

what the fuck

i just opened a celestial pack and

it didn't have anything in it

huh

[cloud sinew]

the goat

[cloud sinew]

thats not a vanilla bug

[karmic garnet]

I made it to ante 12 on purple stake

[versed sable]

accurate representation of space

[limber nova]

D’OH! My Michael died

[eager summit]

i only play vanilla

[minor portal]

Try pointing the telescope somewhere else

[cloud sinew]

oh did you savescum

[eager summit]

no

[round shadow]

something feels off here...

[cloud sinew]

did you go back to the main menu at any point

[karmic garnet]

Also who took all the mult

[eager summit]

no

[nova junco]

Wait...

[ivory elbow]

what do i choose guys

[cloud sinew]

show me

your screen

[karmic garnet]

Are fr rn

[minor portal]

WHEEL!!!

[nova junco]

Is this even a question?

[nova junco]

Like just get the wheel

[worthy tinsel]

temperance

[ivory elbow]

i meant like what do i dellete for a leg

[eager summit]

it opened, didn't have anything in it and kicked me back into the shop

[nova junco]

Imagine not reading the message I sent immediately after that one lmfao

[round shadow]

depends on deck

[cloud sinew]

you definitely just fat fingered the skip button then

[versed sable]

probably misprint

[round shadow]

most likely misprint though

[worthy tinsel]

it lived what?
1 week?

[ivory elbow]

im playing 4oak

[eager summit]

i did not

[cloud sinew]

how do you know

[nova junco]

Yeah probably

[echo sphinx]

failed

again!

[eager summit]

bc i move my cursor to the middle of the screen after opening a pack

[ivory elbow]

i love my goatcot

[nova junco]

YES

CHIGOAT

[eager summit]

or in this case where the guaranteed most used hand would be

[ivory elbow]

do we blueprint the chigoat

[nova junco]

See now you get one more chance to gold stake chicot

[atomic trout]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaargh

[nova junco]

Absolutely yes you do

[cloud sinew]

you are wrong https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1248974935863595108

you frame perfect skipped the pack

[ivory elbow]

ok but seriously im copying cavendish and if i get manacle ill copy chigoat

[frank notch]

its not blueprintabble

[nova junco]

NO WAIT ITS A JOKE😭

[ivory elbow]

ik

[nova junco]

Chicot is not compatible with blueprint

[ivory elbow]

ill still bp the banana

i have no mult but i must xmult

[nova junco]

You have greedy

[frank notch]

are we playing 3oaks??

[eager summit]

see, i didn't

[ivory elbow]

4oak

[frank notch]

only 4?

[cloud sinew]

youre just being like "nuh uh" so im not responding to you anymore

[ivory elbow]

16oak

[nova junco]

Ah yes the "roll for the family(i think?) simulator"

[eager summit]

bc i'd have had to actively click my touchpad to do that

bc my fingers were on it

didn't lift them at all

so i couldn't have tapped it

[cloud sinew]

then how did you open the pack ???

[nova junco]

In general if you're getting most of your mult from jokers 4oak is kinda better than 5oak or flush 5 just because it only takes 4 cards to make

[eager summit]

by clicking the buy

but i didn't click after that

[cloud sinew]

which is where the accidental double click happened

[nova junco]

And it scales the same from levels

[cloud sinew]

you definitely just skipped and you dont want to believe it

this is either

• not a vanilla bug
  or
• you did what the only other person to have ever reported that issue did

[nova junco]

Maybe localthunk messed with their game files specifically

[ivory elbow]

my goat came in clutch (i play 4oak with kings)

[nova junco]

CHIGOAT CLUTCH (you probably would win anyways)

Unless you're going like glass cards

[fringe crest]

theyre doing a weezer no way

[slow iris]

this is what actually happened i saw him do it

[eager summit]

i just played a blind to check if it's possible the way i play

[nova junco]

I don't remember that joker what does it do

[obsidian lotus]

Yo chat I think I found a glitch

[frank notch]

wrong channel

[fringe crest]

nuh uh

[eager summit]

i cannot accidentally double click on this touchpad

[lost vault]

balatro!

[eager summit]

i tried

[fringe crest]

yuh

[round shadow]

must be holographic or somethin

[eager summit]

it has to be on purpose

[hidden lance]

it was already pretty free but woah

[cloud sinew]

i simply dont believe you based on the fact that only two people have ever reported this, one of those people being you, in 3 years.

[obsidian lotus]

How did I get this without showman

[round shadow]

invis

[eager summit]

you not believing me, does not make it any less of a fact that i could not have double clicked

[nova junco]

OMG

[frank notch]

ankh

[cloud sinew]

your 1 minute of testing does not prove anything

[nova junco]

No see cus one of them is Michel the other is Cavendish

Because one is more curved

[echo sphinx]

monis

[nova junco]

So they got one banana invis'd it and then one died and got cavendish

[cloud sinew]

replicate the bug some other way and I'll change my position on this

[eager summit]

my one minute of fact checking proves that this touchpad cannot be accidentally doubleclicked

[humble gulch]

[echo sphinx]

MMMM

MORE PRKING PROCS

[nova junco]

I love my single steel card lmao

[cloud sinew]

unless youve tried in every physically possible way then no it doesnt

[eager summit]

great, bc i did

[echo sphinx]

sorry im broke for devil

[minor portal]

why is this being debated

[nova junco]

It's balatro chat of course it's a useless argument

[cloud sinew]

😭 you tapped your touchpad in every physically possible way? no the fuck you didnt twin. quintillion+ different ways to do it and you did it in a minute

we got the flash over here

[atomic trout]

¿Que?

[minor portal]

Oh right! Who wouldn't want to debate over meaningless things.

[eager summit]

no, i clicked my touchpad in all 3 way i click it

it is not possible

[frank notch]

three?

[cloud sinew]

3...?

[atomic trout]

That's impossible

[cloud sinew]

do you think there are only 3 ways to touch your touchpad

[eager summit]

i only click it in 3 ways

[nova junco]

Ofc that's the main content over here until we get 1.1

[frank notch]

you have to make up for miniscule differences

[eager summit]

i'm quite autistic about touchpad usage

[frank notch]

like how hard you press it

[cloud sinew]

that doesnt mean anything

[frank notch]

autistic isnt supposed to be used that way

its a mental disorder

[cloud sinew]

its not a mental disorder

[nova junco]

Like hollow knight fans descended into impossible boss fights, batman arkham fans started hallucinating and we started arguing over laptop trackpads

[frank notch]

or whatever it is

[minor portal]

Maybe the real empty celestial pack was the friends we made along the way

[cloud sinew]

also im fine with it being used that way so long as the person saying it is autistic

[echo sphinx]

guess im playing cards now...?

[eager summit]

oh no, i'm diagnosed, been that way since i was 7

[nova junco]

Autism is a color actually

[nova junco]

Holy luck

[minor portal]

I heard it was light blue.

[eager summit]

i got my autism diagnosis with my adhd diagnosis

[frank notch]

yeah but it isnt used that way

[nova junco]

No no see it can't be light blue it's too generic

[cloud sinew]

people use it that way

including myself

[eager summit]

sure it is

[nova junco]

It's

(checks notes)

Periwinkle

[minor portal]

so a light blue

[nova junco]

Yes but like with an autism level precision

[cloud sinew]

periwinkle is purpley blue

not light blue

[eager summit]

let's just agree to disagree, i believe it's a bug bc i physically could not have doubleclicked, and you believe it's a perfectly timed doubleclick because you are not me

[minor portal]

Oh, so it is true.

[nova junco]

are we arguing over periwinkle too now

[light brook]

i love periwinkle top 2 colors oat

[nova junco]

[nova junco]

What's the top 1

[echo sphinx]

i love balatro community

[ancient gyro]

sorry what are we talking about

[eager summit]

new topic, problem solved

[nova junco]

Nothing actually we're just like the karens who want nothing more than to argue about something

[light brook]

yellow-orange, number 3 is indigo

[cloud sinew]

bug, then whether or not its okay to use autistic as an adverb / adjective (i think its fine as long as it's used by an autistic person)

then periwinkle

[minor portal]

Yellow/orange? As in one of the two?

[frank notch]

YELLOW ORANGE???

[cloud sinew]

i often describe the way i do things as autistic, as I am autistic.

[nova junco]

Ah really?

[light brook]

as in a mix of the both

[frank notch]

no way thats your favorite color

[cloud sinew]

was it not obvious 🤨

[frank notch]

its not even top 10

[light brook]

wait no i mixed indigo and y/o

[minor portal]

the slash quite literally divides the colors

[cloud sinew]

trans, "mad glubget", C++, hatsune miku pfp

[light brook]

indigo is my favorite

[frank notch]

those dont always coincide

[eager summit]

autism is red for me

[light brook]

idk every person i’ve met with those traits is autistic so…

[frank notch]

the color of autism is also periwinkle

[nova junco]

New topic have you seen the new "straight" flag that just dropped it has blue for male and pink for female so it's like
🟦 🟪 ⬜ 🟪 🟦

[eager summit]

i'm trans :3

[frank notch]

thats the gay flag

[minor portal]

That is purple.

[cloud sinew]

you are so boring

[light brook]

i thought it was black and white lines

[cloud sinew]

while I on the other hand am mad glubget

[frank notch]

the real straight flag is green and blue

[light brook]

like a prison jumpsuit

[eager summit]

hello fellow [ enjoyer

[frank notch]

nah i thought you werent

[nova junco]

No thats the straight flag not the straight flag

[atomic trout]

Nooo

[nova junco]

That's the straight (people without scoliosis) flag not straight (heterosexual) flag

[light brook]

what’s weird is there’s a straight and ally flag, implying anyone who uses the straight flag isn’t an ally

[glad aspen]

Negative baseball with oops bloodstone and retriggers 🤤🤤🤤

[nova junco]

Wait are you fr

I didn't know about the ally flag

[eager summit]

i either have chronic back pain or scoliosis

but like

they're basically the same

[light brook]

yea, ally is the straight flag with a rainbow triangle

[cloud sinew]

it doesnt imply that at all

[frank notch]

straight and ally flags arent mutually exclusive

[eager summit]

i need a cane for both

or i would

[nova junco]

Oh I know it I just thought it was in general

[eager summit]

but i bke everywhere

[light brook]

that’s always how i assumed it, i misinterpret a lot of things lol

[minor portal]

one hydraulic press could fix the problem

[cloud sinew]

omnipresent being with dyslexia:

[nova junco]

Like get the pipe out of the press and use it as a cane?

[eager summit]

i do have dyslexia

[cloud sinew]

okay

but do you get the joke

[frank notch]

thank you for this information

[light brook]

dylsexia

[light brook]

i get it that was good

[eager summit]

but that definitely got me laughing which is bad for me bc i have a sinus infection

[minor portal]

No, as in flattening them. But like, in a way to fix their back.

[cloud sinew]

😎

[versed sable]

lmao

[cloud sinew]

i be everywhere

[nova junco]

Is there one balatro fan without any mental illness btw (I'm including myself as not one of them)

[cloud sinew]

it gets funnier when you explain the joke btw /s

[cloud sinew]

yes, but probably not anyone who's active here.

[versed sable]

Descartes before the horse

[eager summit]

yes, my friend epsilon(allegedly)

[frank notch]

mental illness as in

or just any mental condition or difference

[light brook]

any illness mentally

[frank notch]

what constitutes as an illness

[nova junco]

Like you know when you get sick like a cold

Yeah that but for the mind

[viral raft]

idk i lost my mind since i get my firstg c++

[deep sequoia]

new pb

[viral raft]

just look at my pfp

[light brook]

autism isn’t an illness because you cat “get” autism

[nova junco]

🔥

[light brook]

i think

[frank notch]

ok so i count as not having any mental illness

[light brook]

i’m not diagnosed autistic so please correct me if i’m wrong

[eager summit]

at the least anything that's covered by the finnish disability aid as a mental illness

[minor portal]

but the 5g towers... the evil wifi

[nova junco]

They can give people autism

[light brook]

the vaccines beg to differ

[nova junco]

That too

[minor portal]

There are microchips in the air

[static haven]

weirdest way i've won a run so far

[nova junco]

The hell

[versed sable]

i thought it's technically classified as a disorder?
-# i'm autistic and i'm not even sure if i'm right, there lmao

[deep sequoia]

ante 2 absolutely insane luck

[nova junco]

WHAT

[eager summit]

ye, i got it from an ancestor

[nova junco]

Also how didn't you use hex yet

[deep sequoia]

i lowkey forgot

[frank notch]

you dont get autism you earn it

[cloud sinew]

it depends on the region, but the most "up to date" places classify it as a neurodevelopmental condition, not a disorder or an illness

[light brook]

i did my research! correct it is a disorder not an illness

[frank notch]

you did something in a past life

[eager summit]

btw i got my disability aid from mostly my autism as it's covered under mental illnesses

[deep sequoia]

autism is a mental disability that's a different thing

[versed sable]

makes sense

[light brook]

i’m saying it’s something you get from birth, not gain in the middle of life, whereas a mental illness like depression you can get any time

[frank notch]

i thought autism was a disability

[cloud sinew]

disability and illness/disorder are not synonymous though

[nova junco]

Condition like "your mental illness only triggers if played hand contains a three of a kind"?

[eager summit]

hey, whatever gets me my disability aid

[minor portal]

pair slop

[light brook]

most illnesses are disabilities, not all disabilities are illnesses

[eager summit]

as long as there's money in my account i do not care how the government classifies autism

[cloud sinew]

"i have the 'no legs' illness"

[frank notch]

is there a catchall word for throth mental disability and disorder and ilness

[cloud sinew]

no

not a good one at least

[light brook]

anyways i’m gonna be fun police for a moment and kindly ask to migrate the conversation to #🎙・server-chat or #🃏・off-topic to keep organization

[eager summit]

i have the "born with no field of depth" illness

[frank notch]

i have the 'no illness' ilness

[minor portal]

this is why you're a diamond suit.

[eager summit]

it's truly a terrible one, as i've always wanted to draw

[nova junco]

Yeeahhhhhh ur right actually but this chat is rarely ever on topic anyways

[cloud sinew]

cowboy with no arms:

[light brook]

yeah that’s a compliment right

right

[light brook]

you’re getting good at these lilo

glubget

whatever you wanna be called

[south path]

diamond suit HAS to be the worst

[light brook]

true but usually it’s bloodstone arguments not mental illness talk

[south path]

in general

[cloud sinew]

that's Hearts twin

[echo sphinx]

ill play u over and over for those sweet rough gem proc

[south path]

no

clubs is the best

best suit

[cloud sinew]

clubs is the best

[south path]

ever

[light brook]

OHHH how did i not put this together

[eager summit]

you need to stop being funny, i will die from my sinus infection

[proven gulch]

Desmo

[cloud sinew]

it came free with my autism

[light brook]

screw you too i guess 😞

[light brook]

DESMOS GUY!

[nova junco]

Tbh diamond suit with early rough gem has carried entire runs for me

[south path]

wtf

im talking in general

diamond looks ugly

[proven gulch]

In the flesh

[south path]

hearts mehh

[nova junco]

In the blood

[frank notch]

clubs look uglier

[south path]

spade looks majestic and clubs is just like so good

no

[proven gulch]

stone

[south path]

clubs r peak

[cloud sinew]

baltatro1!!

[frank notch]

at least you put diamonds on rings

[nova junco]

It's in the blood

Oh

Oh

[light brook]

wow thanks i’ve always had suspicions 😿

[nova junco]

It's in the blood

[frank grove]

clubs with high contrast off kinda .. horrible though

[south path]

clubs are trees

without trees we dont live

[lost vault]

meow! :3

[south path]

so

[frank notch]

theyre clovers

theyre inessential

[south path]

therefor

yeah

clovers are plants

diamonds is just compressed carbon

what is ur point

[nova junco]

Also

[frank notch]

clovers dont matter as much as trees

[light brook]

spades are gardening tools my ma

[frank notch]

we would live if they disappeared

[light brook]

what’s your point

[echo sphinx]

clubs have like the most unique suit pattern

[south path]

we would live without diamonds too

tho

[frank notch]

ok case closed

[pale wolf]

BLATRO!!!!!!!

[nova junco]

In Italian diamonds are literally just called "paintings"

[pale wolf]

what deck, blatro?

[frank notch]

*balatro

[south path]

how to beat purple stake

[cloud sinew]

BROWN

[lost vault]

bALAATROOO!!

[nova junco]

It always screws with my brain

[frank notch]

nebula

[pale wolf]

thats not

[cloud sinew]

its just dark orange ik /s

[nova junco]

Checkered deck:

[cloud sinew]

so play orange deck

🙂

[south path]

[south path]

i got perkeo after tho

[cloud sinew]

$10 <3

[nova junco]

Get a face card from a standard

[nova junco]

Ok man

[south path]

is erratic deck actually good

[cloud sinew]

its mid

[nova junco]

It's pretty fun

[cloud sinew]

and annoying

[frank notch]

varies

[frank grove]

its whatever deck

[south path]

also how do i even play abandoned deck i feel like im playing it wrong and i cant beat WHITE STAKE WITH IT

[cloud sinew]

erratic deck is VERY annoying if you have a lot of time in the game

[lost vault]

sure :p

[echo sphinx]

its good
u get to actually think and start fullhousing

[frank notch]

stop playing face card builds

[nova mantle]

Ass deck

[nova junco]

Get jokers that don't do face cards only

[cloud sinew]

as it fucks up your muscle memory

[south path]

good advice

[frank notch]

thats why i suggested it

[nova mantle]

Genuinely worse playing experience than black/plasma

[south path]

i ran photochad once and i completely forgot i was on abandoned

[frank grove]

erratic just requires checking the deck more often than usual and thats annoying

[lost vault]

it is sad that people cant comprehend playing the game without face cards

[south path]

for like 2 antes

[lost vault]

its really not that hard

[echo sphinx]

me when i discard highlow and not get a straight cuz rank 7 doesn't exist

[south path]

no bro im running out of cards

[nova junco]

Have you ever played black deck beyond blue stake

[frank grove]

like arcana packs arent as easy to autopilot on erratic

[south path]

and all i can play is like a pair

[lost vault]

HOW????????

[nova mantle]

Peep the name dawg

[south path]

dunno

it keeps happening

[frank notch]

stop discardspamming

[lost vault]

you dont have 8 fucking dicards

[frank notch]

do pairslop

[nova junco]

It wasn't a genuine question lol

[south path]

pairslop

cant i do fullhouseslop

[frank notch]

no

pairslop is mandatory

[nova junco]

That's not slop tho

[south path]

yes it is

[frank notch]

if you dont do pairslop you will be locked up

[echo sphinx]

how about 4oakslop

[lost vault]

no because fullhouse slop gets you killed

[nova junco]

I HATE pairs

[nova mantle]

I have a special hatred towards nebula cuz I was not that experienced at the moment of playing it

[frank notch]

fullhouseslop is inconsistently drawn

[south path]

what is 4oak

[cloud sinew]

full house is slop because you have to dredge scaling up from the depths for a shit hand

[frank notch]

4 sameranked cards

[nova mantle]

When I got to black I was more knowledgeable so it wasn't as frustrating

[lost vault]

truebomb

[south path]

oh i was reading it as 4 oak

[cloud sinew]

4 birch

[south path]

why dont people just say quads

[ancient gyro]

same

[echo sphinx]

4planks

[nova junco]

Balatro players when they have to think about which rank they are playing

[light brook]

because they’re called 4 of a kind not quads?

[cloud sinew]

almost every scenario where you would play full house, it's instead better to play 4oak/3oak/two pair

[frank notch]

quads sounds wierd

and quints is even worse

[south path]

pretty sure like everyone in the poker comm calls it quads

[nova junco]

BUT FUN

WHERE FUN

[cloud sinew]

because thats poker slang, and in balatro it's called "four of a kind"

[echo sphinx]

it is hwat it is
i cant tell u how many times i built interest in green deck

[frank notch]

nothing is benefitted by fullhouse directly

[light brook]

well we’re the balatro community not the poker community

[south path]

closely related

[cloud sinew]

not at all

[light brook]

not really actually

[frank notch]

no jokers strengthen full house that dont strengthen an easier hand

[cloud sinew]

most people who play balatro never touched poker before playing balatro

[light brook]

the only commonality is the had names

[cloud sinew]

myself included

[frank notch]

i only played poker once in summer camp

[south path]

poker is fun

[frank notch]

nvm it was texas holdem

[south path]

yeah texas holdem is goated

[frank grove]

🔥

[echo sphinx]

my poker knowledge is jojo lol

[south path]

even tho youve never played actual poker the game is literally about poker hands

so

[light brook]

thunk actually filed a thingy about convincing the esrb to not rate it 17+ because they thought it was promoting poker and he’s like “actually no”

[echo sphinx]

oh my discard gaming

[frank notch]

poker hands are easy

[minor portal]

your rick grows stronger

[south path]

balatro is just poker made into a rougelike

[cloud sinew]

no it isnt

[frank notch]

you just play hands in balatro

[cloud sinew]

balatro has very little to do with poker besides the hands and some of the terminology

[frank notch]

poker has actual gambling and bluffing

[echo sphinx]

balatro is a roguelike with playing cards

[light brook]

literally the only commonality is the hand names

[south path]

oh yeah im talking about the hands they just added the videogame aspect to it

[cloud sinew]

well yeah but thats not all balatro is

[light brook]

that’s like arguing blackjack is poker because they share hand names

[nova junco]

Wait doesn't normal poker have tarots too

[south path]

yeah thats why im saying they added the aspect of video games

[ancient gyro]

except royal flush isnt the best poker hand not even close

[frank notch]

its cards not poker

[cloud sinew]

that is a nothing sentence

[echo sphinx]

i should've consumed a planet to bid more chips on the table

[cloud sinew]

"the aspect of video games" ???

[minor portal]

I brought a banana to a poker game once

[frank notch]

all video games have the aspects of video games

[light brook]

last i checked you don’t wager money in balatro so that’s half the poker aspect gone

[nova junco]

Did they give you +15 mult

[south path]

well yeah the description literally says you play illegal poker hands

in steam

[frank notch]

x*1=x

[south path]

doesnt it

[viral raft]

all that i see is pair slop and thowback in betwen

[south path]

i know its not poker obviously

but its related

[frank notch]

HANDS

[south path]

thats all im saying

[minor portal]

No, I lost it in a bet.

[frank notch]

not poker

[cloud sinew]

the game also says it's solitaire meets poker, yet it has basically nothing to do with either of those in the grand scheme of things.

[nova junco]

Damn Michelle left you

[south path]

dude it has every single poker hand im not saying its poker but it literally is related to poker

[frank notch]

bro hit the 1 in 6 chance

[echo sphinx]

Extinct!

[cloud sinew]

nobody is denying it's related to poker, we're just saying it's not a very strong relation

[sacred maple]

What to remove so I can get cavendish?

[light brook]

“every card game is the same because they all have cards”

[minor portal]

[frank notch]

all of them

[static haven]

you see

i was playing flushes

[echo sphinx]

is ok

[nova junco]

Even the game where you read the fun numbers on your credit card

[minor portal]

reroll for polychrome cavendish

[echo sphinx]

next time bring a cavendish banana

[viral raft]

oh that's okay

[nova junco]

Credit card that you of course found in the judgement in the arcana

[eternal flame]

sad

[echo sphinx]

u get better scoring to win the table bid

[light brook]

yknoe if you really want it to be

[cloud sinew]

my CVV does not have 9 in it

[cloud sinew]

slowly giving away my card info 😎

[frank notch]

sell tarot

then open the arcana

[echo sphinx]

holy gold stake plsama

[cursive crater]

judgement into cc in arcana pack TRUST!

[sacred maple]

I think the chances are too low for that

[light brook]

atp just give the rest 🥀

[echo sphinx]

ah yes i sell a tarot generator to buy a tarot

[light brook]

for legal reasons this is a joke

[frank notch]

precisely

[cloud sinew]

same odds as it being negative, assuming no hone 😭

[frank notch]

you could get a hermit

[nova junco]

What if they lied and it actually does have a 9

[frank notch]

and buy the bp

[cloud sinew]

i pinky promise

[minor portal]

You never know

[light brook]

then we shun her

[echo sphinx]

i like your gambling thinking

[frank notch]

if anything it wont matter in the long run because early game plasma is ez

[nova junco]

You can actually do that but then you don't have anything to score

[sacred maple]

Hone yes 💔

[frank notch]

plasma deck

[south path]

oh my god bro im just saying poker and balatro are related because they both use the same hands

[cloud sinew]

glow up?
if no glow up then it's 0.9% for poly while negative is 0.3%
if glow up then it's 2.1% for poly while negative is 0.3%

[frank notch]

if hermit doesnt appear but judgement does use judgement

[sacred maple]

Is glow up tier 2 hone?

[cloud sinew]

yes

it lies about polychrome odds

[light brook]

correct no one is denying this but it’s the only similarity they have this making not a strong correlation

[cloud sinew]

polychrome is 3x from hone and 7x total from glow up

[sacred maple]

Ah ok

[light brook]

a lot of other games use those hands. some could compare blackjack to poker, though one their only similarities is the hands

[cloud sinew]

its so that the total edition odds are doubled each time, but negative isnt more common so something else has to be more than doubled

so the total edition rate goes from
4% with no vouchers -> 8% with hone -> 16% with glow up

i personally think that negatives should be more common with hone and glow up

[frank notch]

negatives should be doubled ONLY with glowup

[cloud sinew]

1.2% negative odds would not be game breaking as it requires you to have two specific vouchers for it

[sacred maple]

IT FUCKING EXTINCT
ONE ROUND AFTER BUYING IT
HOW
HOOOOWWW
WHAT THE FUUUUUUCK

HOOOOOOOOW

[ancient gyro]

while dealing with a technical downside

[frank notch]

skill issue

play betterf

[south path]

blackjack is up to 21 the only hand "name" it has is blackjack which is 21

in a single hand

[cloud sinew]

it would be a fun change as it means you get negatives more often, even if theyre not helpful its still cool to see, and it's endless content

[ancient gyro]

1.1 nanlet slop just got leaked

[south path]

comparing black jack to poker and comparing poker to balatro are different

[humble gulch]

How rare was a legendary again?

[frank notch]

0.03?

[cloud sinew]

0.3% per card

[frank notch]

nvm

[sacred maple]

What the fuck do I do man this is worse than losing

[light brook]

you’re right i’m literally thinking of poker lol sorry

[humble gulch]

Yeah, I'd like that hone and glow up make negatives more common

[light brook]

but my point is there are other card games that use poker hands and comparing them to poker solely for that reason is silly

[humble gulch]

Surely a negative rental perishable hit the road will be overpowered

[cloud sinew]

@ancient gyro i think that editioned jokers' price increase should be less drastic

[ancient gyro]

what about illusion (when it gets fixed)

[humble gulch]

I think they're fine

[ancient gyro]

im fine with their current prices

[south path]

i mean all of them are just poker variants, calling balatro a poker variant isnt fit but saying its a deck building rougelike thats based off of 5 hand poker would be right

[humble gulch]

+5 dollars for a negative it's fair

[cloud sinew]

i dont think so

[humble gulch]

Most of them end up costing 10+

[ancient gyro]

my problem comes from illusion making my cards 6 bucks

[cloud sinew]

it's usually a worthless joker that just costs more so you can have it stop appearing again

and then abstract/swash/temp/gift synergy ofc

[light brook]

hone is actually technically a debuff it makes jokes more expensive for small chip/mult amounts

in my eyes at least

[rancid gull]

How much would you price editioned jokers

[south path]

ive never gotten a editioned joker after buying hone

[cloud sinew]

+$1, +$2, and +$3 instead of +$2, +$3 and +$5

[south path]

i think once or twice but what are the chances

[cloud sinew]

8% with hone

[ancient gyro]

50 chips for a dollar is too much value

[frank grove]

yeah

[alpine talon]

YESSS

YESSSS

GINALLY

[south path]

ggs

[frank notch]

how about editioned jokers multiply the original price

rounding down

[alpine talon]

And gros Michel gold sticker

[rancid gull]

I love me some foil jokers

[light brook]

way too overpowered

[frank notch]

foil: x1.25, holograph: x1.35, polychrome: x1.6, negative: 2x

probably would be less

[rancid gull]

I want more challenge decks

[light brook]

atp make it every joker is polychromed

[alpine talon]

Underpowered?

[rancid gull]

Like massive boon and bane decks

[cloud sinew]

what

how would that be overpowered

[frank notch]

?

[light brook]

yes sorry meant underpowered

[humble gulch]

Welp, free full houses

[light brook]

i highly misunderstood what you meant that’s on me

[rancid gull]

I’ve grown to like the difficulty of black deck a little tbh

[ancient gyro]

fr

[alpine talon]

It feels more unfair than difficult

[ancient gyro]

for when you have nothing else to learn

[frank notch]

i only beat purple stake black deck with perkeo + brainstorm + red seal steel kings

[humble gulch]

I really like black deck

[frank notch]

got neither baron nor mime

[south path]

i havent touched black deck in a bit

[rancid gull]

Give me another black deck

[frank notch]

after i beat gold stake black deck i plan to never play it again

[alpine talon]

Black deck is ass because you literally have to restart 10 times just to not die ante 2

[rancid gull]

Pretty pleaseeee

[light brook]

i said this to a store owner once, he kicked me out and called the cops

[south path]

fr LMAO

[pale wolf]

actually, you don't literally have to

[rancid gull]

Really? Ante 2 is pretty easy

Ante 3 is where the difficulty spikes

[ancient gyro]

well

[alpine talon]

Ante 2-3

[south path]

i get issues faster with the run on black deck

[pale wolf]

people have better than a 10% win rate on Black Deck

[alpine talon]

Oh hey I remember you

[ancient gyro]

I dont

[south path]

especially if im playing on a higher stake then green or something

[alpine talon]

You were giving me obelisk propaganda

Fuck obelisk

[ancient gyro]

every new player does that

[alpine talon]

But I know it's good now 🥺

[rancid gull]

Bro is in his flush era

[ancient gyro]

it's nothing special

o

[light brook]

it’s not bad at all, just a bit overglazed i think

[ancient gyro]

ok buddy

[rancid gull]

I think it’s neat

[alpine talon]

It's very overglazed

But it's good

[light brook]

like don’t get me wrong it’s an amazing xmult scaler

[alpine talon]

Not bad

Not op

Just good

[light brook]

but it’s so incredibly glazed

[untold onyx]

obelisk is fun and that's what truly matters

[alpine talon]

No

[rancid gull]

I’m definitely the glazer

[alpine talon]

Not for me at least

[pale wolf]

when you say glazed what do you mean

[ancient gyro]

it's only gotten nerfed so I'm sure it had a humble beginning

[rancid gull]

I love obelisk

[south path]

i dont like obelisk

[light brook]

KEEP IN MIND GLAZED =\ BAD

[pale wolf]

do you think people say it is better than it is

[frank notch]

im indifferent to obelisk

[south path]

its good but it doesnt deserve the hype

[light brook]

some people act like it’s god

it’s overhyped is the word i’d rather use

[south path]

throwback is so much more fun for me

then obelisk

[pale wolf]

ew

[frank grove]

Cause it straight up wins runs

[rancid gull]

Oh god no, it takes a good setup to effectively use without killing your self

[light brook]

yikes

[ancient gyro]

tbf I've done some silly things with it

[alpine talon]

I have some type of OCD (probably not) but if I have a level 10 pair and obelisk wants me to play level 2 two pair, I die inside

[void lintel]

tbf obelisk is glazed because so many people hate on it thinking it's bad

[south path]

yo do people not like throwback

[cloud sinew]

so you think its worse than people say it is?

[south path]

i love it

[frank notch]

blackboard and certificate are my funnest

[pale wolf]

It's fun when throwback happens to coincide with what I was already doing in a run but it has never changed my decision making process

[cloud sinew]

skipping is horrible twin

[alpine talon]

Skipping is not optimal

[cloud sinew]

it has changed my decision making process like a couple times

[alpine talon]

Actually my friend beat black stake by skipping

[south path]

i only use throwback because i get impatient

[alpine talon]

I told him "don't skip it's bad"

[frank notch]

black stake is easy as pie

[alpine talon]

But I struggled

[light brook]

no, but i’m saying it’s talked about more than it should be

[rancid gull]

+.25% xmult tho 😛😛😛😛

[cloud sinew]

and i beat gold stake 15 times in a row by not skipping

[shell dagger]

“skipping is suboptimal” is not a valid reason for why throwback is bad

[south path]

i beat black and blue stake with throwback and insane skips lmao

[cloud sinew]

thats not what "overhyped" means

[pale wolf]

pie is pretty hard to make depending on what kind it is

[alpine talon]

And then I skipped ONCE and these are my shops

[shell dagger]

it’s like saying “wasting hands is suboptimal” for a reason why grimbo is bad

[ancient gyro]

idk if yk what the majority of players think about obbylicks but over hyped is not what I would describe the joker

[frank notch]

thats just a lucky hiy

[rancid gull]

Saying that one person beat black deck while skipping is not proof throwback is good lol

[light brook]

that’s why i said glazed earlier

[south path]

you need to be smart with throwback

[frank notch]

next time you take a rare tag youre gonna get the order

[south path]

you need good money

[alpine talon]

Bro he gets blueprint EVERY run

EVERY RUN

[frank notch]

lucky hits

[pale wolf]

I have absolutely no reading on the general balatro player base anymore

[cloud sinew]

that is not true

[alpine talon]

Rare joker skip is righed

[south path]

beating black stake was a breeze with insane throwback numbers

[light brook]

obelisk players are very devout in their beliefs

[rancid gull]

You are losing out on shops

Skipping is sooooo bad

[frank notch]

sunk cost fallacy

[alpine talon]

Not first ante

[light brook]

we love fighting

[frank grove]

Guys all you need to do is get straight levels, a copy joker and throwback and then skip 15 times and you do the thing guys

[frank notch]

i think thats right]

[cloud sinew]

this server is already well above the "general" community

oop wrong reply

[south path]

yeah but instead of having a chance to get good jokers you get a ensured xmult boost

and also you dont have to be patient

[frank notch]

not ensured

[south path]

it is tho

[cloud sinew]

you lose out on econ and a shop and joker scaling for a tag and 0.25x

[rancid gull]

Playing on a higher stake

You lose that scaling

[frank notch]

a lot of rare jokers are suboptimal for most builds

[rancid gull]

Which is so necessary

[pale wolf]

I'm too impatient to throw a winning run just because I see throwback

[south path]

idk but it carried me on black stake

[pale wolf]

it'll take longer for me to get back to that point

[south path]

i had good econ tho

so i wasnt in trouble

for skipping

[alpine talon]

You either get BP or Bs, a 3x mult joker or something like DNA or stuntman which are all good early game

[cloud sinew]

the times ive taken throwback is when it's already scaled and i almost act like it isnt there, or when i have 3 of them and i am immune to crimson

[alpine talon]

Same black stake made me appreciate skips more

[frank notch]

dna is good early game

[south path]

yeah

[frank notch]

no way

[south path]

i dont remember if it was black or blue

[cloud sinew]

gold stake will make you hate skipping

[alpine talon]

Well apart from that

[ancient gyro]

im tryna replicate something silly

[rancid gull]

What if Throwback was +.5%, but it didn’t retroactively scale?

[south path]

i think i used hologram for blue and throwback for black

[frank notch]

baron is bad too

[rancid gull]

Still would be kinda bad

[frank notch]

if you have no other jokers bp/bs do nothing

[south path]

it depends on when you get it it would be more situational but better in general i feel like

[cloud sinew]

succulent can you stop sending 10 images all at once please

[ancient gyro]

oh please

[alpine talon]

Nah it's easier than restarting every flipping time because you don't get +mult in two antes

[ancient gyro]

I've made worse offenses

[south path]

like throwback rn is like more solid if your not on goldstake

but if its like that then it would be way more situational

[alpine talon]

On gold stake black deck btw

[rancid gull]

+mult is the most common

[cloud sinew]

???

[ancient gyro]

...

[rancid gull]

I refuse to believe you’ll go two antes without finding at least one

lol

[cloud sinew]

okay but can you stop sending 10 messages in one message please

idc that youve done worse things im just addressing 🐘 what you did just now

[alpine talon]

Eternal rental jolly joker doesn't quite work

Unless it's cryptid

[ancient gyro]

I'll do it again :)
