[frank grove]

bones or showman out of the way?

[slow iris]

dagger appearance

[tight pike]

I only bought reroll that little?

[viral raft]

should i go 4oak Aces or Straight Flush SHortcut?

[tough swift]

Showman

[humble gulch]

Showman

[viral raft]

i love both

[frank grove]

yeah based

[ancient gyro]

acorn doesn't change my original game plan a majority of the time

[humble gulch]

Dagger appears

[frank notch]

this is the strategy

[fringe nebula]

3oak is NOT slop

🗿

[compact gazelle]

wouldnt it be "grab your +mult"?
usually i have multiple xm and one main +m

[humble gulch]

High roll

[compact gazelle]

it can be

[frank grove]

LOL lmao EVEN 😭

[tight pike]

What are you exactly looking for?
Like with rolling I mean

[vocal rose]

It’s usually one to one for me

[humble gulch]

Winning

[fringe nebula]

no reset gameplay

[humble gulch]

Duh

[compact gazelle]

oh huh
one scaling im assuming?

[humble gulch]

I died

Lol

[tight pike]

I thought u were just looking for cool seeds lol

[compact gazelle]

i tend to have at least 2 xmult unless the xmult is the engine

[split rivet]

ok r8 my stats

[ancient gyro]

"-1 hand"

[ancient gyro]

yeah most of the time I grab my +mult or either of the copycat boys

[fringe nebula]

not having photochad in top 10 is based

[tight pike]

I find your lack of immolate disturbing

[slow iris]

it has to be done

[ancient gyro]

not the lack of mercs?

[tight pike]

Yes kill that thing

[compact gazelle]

how do you even
stab that

?

[slow iris]

nvm

[fringe nebula]

you are throwing the game

[fiery nymph]

NOOOOO

[fringe nebula]

like

[tight pike]

Do it

[glad viper]

KNIFE TOSSING!!!

[ancient gyro]

don't pull a zebra

[pale wolf]

i mean.... its a rare

[compact gazelle]

what am i looking at
genuinely confused

[pale wolf]

🦓

[compact gazelle]

1900 earths 😭

[slow iris]

literally all of my chips are in pair levels and it's ante 7

dw

[tough swift]

Well if none of your jokers require order than yes of course it wont do anything

[humble gulch]

Time to three of a kind

[slow iris]

+54 mult

[ancient gyro]

one of them do

[split rivet]

i like more cards
not less

[compact gazelle]

the positioning on the +40 flash card must really matter here huh

[frank grove]

its throp time !!!!

[ancient gyro]

dragging one joker is a very standard practice

[tight pike]

I like big number
And big money

[fringe nebula]

having less makes it more likely for you to draw the cards you want

[ancient gyro]

yeah I had to one shot it for an eventual argument I need to whip out in a later time

[blazing grove]

chat i finally beat orange stake red deck

[fringe nebula]

gg

[compact gazelle]

progress is being made today

[blazing grove]

pretty good seed

[ancient gyro]

acorn can be a threat if it completely hides your scoring sources and numbers

[tough swift]

You also had 2 3x mult jokers

[tight pike]

You've gotten further than me

[ancient gyro]

this doesn't denote the fact that acorn isn't "-1 hand"

[tight pike]

Orange stake aint even making it harder for me, it is specifically the blue stake debuff that just hits me hard

[slow iris]

ante 1 rental obelisk

[ancient gyro]

some jokers are perishable immune tbf

[slow iris]

face_holding_back_tears~1

[ancient gyro]

brooke moment

[blazing grove]

orange stake just bums me out when i open a pack and theres a perishable cavendish or blueprint

it happened twice in my last run

[tight pike]

Yeah perishable blueprint hurts

[fiery nymph]

orange stake and gold stake are very similar difficulty imo

[ancient gyro]

better make it worth

[terse dock]

Beware the ides of march

[tight pike]

I had a perishable poly burned joker
It always hurts to see

[ancient gyro]

gold stake is universal to all jokers, orange doesn't affect proactive scalers that I already use

[hybrid tendon]

balatrodle in 3

[humble gulch]

I have an idea

[blazing grove]

if invisible joker is debuffed does it not copy a joker

[ancient gyro]

"all abilities are disabled"

[frank grove]

I think it doesnt copy ? ive never done it though so

[blazing grove]

you right

[fiery nymph]

it doesnt

[frank grove]

yeah that makes sense

[fiery nymph]

but honestly who gets an invis and doesnt do that

maybe for a sticker just maybe

but like weird

[frank grove]

people do like holding it for other jokers and if they just dont show up then i guess?

[tight pike]

That's the only thing I would guess

[humble gulch]

I hate my space jokers

[tight pike]

Only works when it wants to

[blazing grove]

oops all 6 would be goated

[serene forge]

3/24/26 balatrodle in 4

[serene forge]

not pairslopping hard enough

[fringe nebula]

the safe play was to play throwaway hand, and then do 3oak with acrobat active

[frank grove]

8ball just double hit right away? what world am i living in?

[serene forge]

also

[tight pike]

Oh yeah smeared joker exists

[serene forge]

1 in 6 rate on the 3oaks

that's hardly out of the ordinary

[humble gulch]

That's funny

[serene forge]

you don't use bloodstone so your rates actually proc

[frank grove]

trueee

except fucking banana

[tight pike]

Hey look, the average roffle video in a pack

[terse vale]

like the score on the left?

[serene forge]

I hate Photograph

[ancient gyro]

and the dance that the jokers usually do

[tight pike]

I hate throwback
It sucks

[ancient gyro]

anything that displays a number will be hidden

so it's just a game of "do you remember what you were scoring

[sand lily]

If invisible copies itself, will it reset to 0?

[tight pike]

Yes

Fuck I did it again
I was planning to fall asleep 2 hours ago

[haughty cairn]

If it didn’t that would just be infinite money

[humble gulch]

I almost died three times

Triple space joker for the win

High roll

I'M SORRY?

I took a capture of a capture...

[terse vale]

oohhhh I like that idea

[terse vale]

bloodstone lovers lose AGAIN VARIABLE SCORING SUUCKS

[tawny venture]

stencil or misprint chat❓

[frank grove]

vampire

[tawny venture]

this deck sucks btw

[terse vale]

but glass ,,

[ancient gyro]

anything to put them in shambles

[lime sand]

2 temps in the smae pack in ante one 2😭

[ancient gyro]

so does vamp

👅

[humble gulch]

Uh...

[tawny venture]

I'd much rather take something that can give me immediate value if if I get vampire I'm losing before I get to properly scale that thing 🥀

[ancient gyro]

never before seen

expensive ramen

[terse vale]

still no glass anywauys

[smoky niche]

shame i cant get the blueprint

[humble gulch]

You're kidding...

[frank grove]

LMAO

[ancient gyro]

ruh roh

where's your fist

or are you more of a scissors opener

[humble gulch]

Yeah...

[errant bolt]

fuck you plasma deck

[humble gulch]

Kind of a mid roll

[terse vale]

for some reason I always forget to make glass when im doing on score builds

but the game always gives me justice ante 8

#NeverPunished

[humble gulch]

Well, I'm dead

[ancient gyro]

reroll into rental todd

or riff raff whatever

[frank notch]

round 1 planetographer on blast off challenge

astronomer

[ancient gyro]

has anyone ever made showman observatory work

just realized I skipped out on an undiscovered opportunity

[random lark]

we need to make a chart for every joker on immediate value vs potential value

[ancient gyro]

i don't need a chart to know what works :D

[frank notch]

NOBODY TOLD ME YOU HAVE 2 HANDS

[ancient gyro]

lmao

[random lark]

and maybe then people will see that the ante 1 baron is bait

[ancient gyro]

you only have 2 of each on blast off

[frank notch]

i cant read

[random lark]

old gold stake black deck

[minor portal]

blast off was a fun challenge

[ancient gyro]

it'd prob be annoying if you were forced to do some sort of repetitive activity

on that challenge

[minor portal]

Couldn't imagine.

[severe geyser]

Dude I hate plasma, it's so silly, Went from my fav deck to my most hated one. Pairs+Blue seals+scaling mult+scaling chips my beloved, I miss you

[ancient gyro]

can't really do pairs on plasma

maybe that's what I should do

next c++

[severe geyser]

I did for my first few plasma runs, just force pairs 4head

[slow iris]

vagabond is an econ joker

[severe geyser]

HUGE

[minor portal]

-8 chips, problem resolved.

[noble nebula]

🔥

[ancient gyro]

pairs isn't really the default poker hand on that deck overall due to most of its inherent advantages being absent compared to the other 14 decks

[noble nebula]

should unironically be a thing ngl

[severe geyser]

oh yeah I agree, straights are probably the most optimal hand but I have pairs brainrot

[ancient gyro]

2 pair*

[severe geyser]

2 pair is the evil sibling of pair. fitting for an evil deck like plasma I suppose

[versed sable]

"i'll make a tier list for spectrals in high score runs, that seems fun"
b tier:

[ancient gyro]

oh

[foggy berry]

best chip scaling to ease of play ratio 🔥

[frank notch]

challenges are lwk ez

[slow iris]

him

[fringe nebula]

i would take if i have the econ

[ancient gyro]

larger on card scoring joker pool 🔥

[foggy berry]

what does this mean

[foggy berry]

gotta be one of the ugliest negatives in the video game

[pastel hatch]

112/150 golden stickers, getting there

[tawny venture]

Which of these is worth replacing for the soul (rocket gives $7)

[terse vale]

riff

rraaffff

[frank notch]

what does raff do?

[tawny venture]

Ooh a canio from it

Was worried I'd have trouble deleting faces but got a hanged man with a couple rerolls

[tawny venture]

generates 2 commons every round

if you have room at least

that's what I've been using as fuel for campfire

kinda crazy how riff raff is itself also a common

[long zodiac]

i love fun Xmult only runs like this

[narrow scroll]

bones saved me twice this playthrough ❤️‍🩹 (got it earlier too)

[frank notch]

what to sell here?

[narrow scroll]

probably the abstract if you have good base mult

[frank notch]

is highcard at 4 good enough

[narrow scroll]

uhhh
no but you can scale it up more later

[long zodiac]

Abstract probs if you have good mult from planet cards

[frank notch]

THE PLANT INCOMINJG

[noble nebula]

yay im rich again

[long zodiac]

Well ggs to ur run LOL

[slow iris]

moment

[narrow scroll]

gulp
take the hieroglyph and hope a glass saves you

[frank notch]

hiero would instantly kill me, 0 hands

i hate you plant

[slow iris]

reverts back to 1

[frank notch]

wouldve won golden needle

maybe

[narrow scroll]

woah really??
that's neat

[slow iris]

ya

[spark sky]

What should I be selling here for blueprint?

[narrow scroll]

what is the steel at

[spark sky]

2.8

[light dome]

Fortune teller is OP

[frank notch]

LOL I GOT YORICK IN GOLDEN NEEDLE

[narrow scroll]

probably the acrobat

[long zodiac]

Fortune teller with drivers liscence is like almost an auto win

[spark sky]

And which joker to blueprint to then?

Assume dusk when it’s last hand?

[fringe nebula]

what's the chance of getting two $20 lucky card hits in a row

[narrow scroll]

photograph probably
dusk if you have a ton of glass i think

[marsh tartan]

blue stake black deck time

[humble gulch]

Free win

[marsh tartan]

ive forced myself to play the deck so much im beginning to almost enjoy it somehow

[stone shell]

1/225

[narrow scroll]

i'd assume 1 in 225
cause it's 1/15 * 1/15 right

[spark sky]

Cheers, appreciate it👌🏻

[stone shell]

so basically 50/50 it either happens or doesn't :clueless:

[slow iris]

i love setting up stupidly overkill hands

[humble gulch]

Who doesn't

Especially on crimson heart

[foggy berry]

i remember one time i got $60 off of 1 lucky card with chad

truly life changing high card

[fringe nebula]

ok, so it's 4/225 then because i have dice lol

[frank notch]

CERULEAN BELL TOO

FREE WIN XD

[slow iris]

would've been more if i had drawn an extra glass... smh...

[gray fog]

just got a polychrome vampire and then a polychrome midas mask holy shit

first time on magic deck

what are some good mods to have

[gray fog]

is the thing that shows your mult below cards a mod? sorry im pretty new lol

[slow iris]

yeah

[stone shell]

yeah its jokerdisplay iirc

[fringe nebula]

+146 flash card

[stone shell]

yummy luckies

whats the cat at

[fringe nebula]

11.25

[foggy berry]

bigger than ur win streak

[fringe nebula]

true

[slow iris]

one quarter of a win

[humble gulch]

Died on ante two

First pair run

It's a little late, but

[plain ermine]

how to really easily sticker two jokers

(andy and splash)

[tawny venture]

Should I sacrifice rocket or runner (rocket gives $15, runner also gives 15 💀)

[plain ermine]

runner's giving 15 chips? you have a foil, i'd probably cut that over a 15 dollar rocket

[tawny venture]

yea I got it late run and barely managed to build it 😭

[stone shell]

runner goes

[tawny venture]

actually no it gives $30

chips

but still not much

[stone shell]

whats your main hands chips

[edgy stone]

Alright. Fair enough

[tawny venture]

literally everything is base level except two pair at level 3 canio and blueprint are HARD carrying the scoring 😭

[plain ermine]

it's also ante 8, that runner won't give too much more than it already is

[stone shell]

why didnt you skip the big blind 😭

[fringe nebula]

balatro out of context : I had no choice but to crash the bus. I'll die otherwise

[humble gulch]

Bad idea...

[plain ermine]

are you really bloodstone's wife

[humble gulch]

How big is your wee

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[plain ermine]

wow!

[humble gulch]

I'm a straight male tho

[lost vault]

my condolences

[tawny venture]

erm

[edgy stone]

I didnt notice the boss blind. That's suck

[gray fog]

first try magic deck, got insanely lucky with midas and vampire both polychrome for free lol

[stone shell]

please divorce your wife theres better stones in the mountain

mobile so you can balatro 24/7

[plain ermine]

well whichever one you think you'll play more

[humble gulch]

That's discriminatory, is it really that bad if you're in love? 💔

[tawny venture]

I got it mobile first personally

[lost vault]

ye

s

[minor portal]

Why.

[gray fog]

?

[humble gulch]

Who hurt you, sir

❤️‍🩹

[lost vault]

nobody (yet :3)

[stone shell]

bloodstone is just leading you, it'll betray you when you need it most 💔

[lost vault]

yeah

[stone shell]

theres a reason bloodstone can be shortened to BS

[plain ermine]

thats why real lovers go for arrowhead

yum yum chips

[lost vault]

i go for dagger

:p

[plain ermine]

that's not a rock

[lost vault]

i dont swing that way

the rock way

[plain ermine]

wow

[stone shell]

former rock that transformed into a weapon

[fringe nebula]

why tf did you open buffoon pack when there's literally a clean, non-rental, non-perishable, and non-eternal raised fist at the first shop 😭

[gray fog]

raised fist is a cool joker

[humble gulch]

Gambling

[plain ermine]

it's pretty good

[humble gulch]

Ugh, fine

[stone shell]

okay at least thats better

[plain ermine]

i mean for gold stake i'd argue HTR is better than bloodstone lol

[stone shell]

we can always blame the deck shufflers

[modern marsh]

Say I encounter The Water (0 discards) with a burglar and multiple chicots, what would happen. Would I gain a bunch of hands and discards? Or would it not work like that

[humble gulch]

I can't

❤️‍🩹

[stone shell]

i would assume it would depend on how the burgers and chics are ordered

[modern marsh]

Pretty sure they trigger from left to right so if we put burgers on the left and Chicots on the right

And would this work on the needle

[humble gulch]

I have 9²

[stone shell]

well we tried to talk you out of it

[finite heron]

This sort of make me feel weird

Ew

[modern marsh]

If I put my ideas in here would I be told to move it to #⚙・modding-general

[humble gulch]

What do you mean

[modern marsh]

I have a LOT of ideas

[finite heron]

It just does

[wet burrow]

on a generational run rn. might actually be able to beat ante 32

[plain ermine]

mad joker carry

[stone shell]

you can put them in suggestions and received 5 instead

[lost vault]

rare tag carry

[wet burrow]

he's getting sold ngl

next ante

need crimson heart to hit bean

[plain ermine]

[wet burrow]

i have 19 hand size and have only found 1 ecto sadly

[frank notch]

whats the best hand for jokerless?

[humble gulch]

I'd say four of a kind

[gray fog]

i hate black deck

[humble gulch]

I like black deck

Jack got an ace

[gray fog]

i like burnt joker

good for high card runs

[atomic trout]

What a great start of a game 😄

[gray fog]

lordy

[atomic trout]

Can't get worse?

Does Hermit help?

[gray fog]

i think youre gonna get -30 lmao

[atomic trout]

It gave no $$

[night turret]

The fact that dice is the better play here

Is crazy to me

[lost vault]

why is it the better play exactly

the buffoon pack is irght thre

[gray fog]

shoot the moon is way better lol oops all 6s will do nothing

[night turret]

If I wasn’t playing in faceless

[gray fog]

get buffoon

[lost vault]

the nefarious abandoned deck

[lost vault]

buffoon pack

[gray fog]

so im dumb

[night turret]

I would immediately take Stm

[lost vault]

take the buffoon pack

[night turret]

Gonna give me shit

[lost vault]

not an eternal dice with literally no use

[gray fog]

yeah me too thats my bad im dumb lol

[lost vault]

yeah well oa6 does literally nothing r

[gray fog]

your best option is gambling

[lost vault]

rn

so like

??

would you rather have a chance of shit or guaranteed shit

[night turret]

Hmmm

[lost vault]

truly the conundrum of the century

[tawny venture]

rocket I'm so sorry to have to do this to you 🥀

[night turret]

It is a purple stake run

Plus it’s literally first ante

[lost vault]

i mean do what you want

im just saying buffoon pack is the correct play and not oops

[gray fog]

why did i start seeing the cards move like they do in game

im brainrotted

[atomic trout]

WHAT HAVE I DONE?

[lost vault]

surprisingly, taking a synergy joker when you dont have the synergy isnt a very good play

[fringe nebula]

???????

stm is there

[gray fog]

my gf says i have a problem

[night turret]

Wow so good

[lost vault]

red card is good

[gray fog]

"talk to me" "kiss me" "do the chores" i have gambling to do woman

[lost vault]

way way way better than oops

[night turret]

Ignore her and open more packs

[tawny venture]

RED CARD ON TOPP

[gray fog]

red card is ok

[lost vault]

red card is great

[fringe nebula]

nah, taking stm the better play

[tawny venture]

you're pulling red card out of my dead hands I swear by it

[gray fog]

in all seriousness tho i talk to her less when im locked in on funny jimbo game, she compared me to her ex so yikes

[lost vault]

dude look at the deck

[fringe nebula]

ok true

lol

[tawny venture]

😭😭

[lost vault]

maybe put some effort into your relationship

[gray fog]

i dont want to pay and potentially skip a good card to level up my mult

[lost vault]

then dont skip good packs

[gray fog]

i have been ive just been playing balatro and talking to her, which does not mix well lol

[lost vault]

red card doesnt say "you MUST skip every pack ever"

[humble gulch]

WHAT

[atomic trout]

I think I'm playing Balatro wrong.

[tawny venture]

idk why people say that when hating on red card

[lost vault]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fringe nebula]

if you open a pack and see garbage, you convert them into +3 mult

if you see something that is better than +3mult, you take it

[gray fog]

yeah, but i still dont wanna have to pay money to level my hand up

[fringe nebula]

simple

[tawny venture]

it just provides a benefit if you get crappy jokers in a pack which happens a LOT

[gray fog]

but then again this is a good reason

i just dont rly use red card

[lost vault]

you always have to pay money to level your hand up????

thats like

the flow of the game

[humble gulch]

What is this run

[lost vault]

😭

[tawny venture]

^

[gray fog]

am i stupid

im stupid

[fringe nebula]

so what? ride the bus, green joker and supernova also costs money because you don't have leftover hands

[zinc sigil]

Gold stake is so fucked how do you guys even make the first 3 antes

[gray fog]

wait not hand lmao i meant joker

[zinc sigil]

Im so shit with money

[gray fog]

holy shit

[lost vault]

still

you pay money to make your run better

thats the whole reason to get money

and like, you SHOULD be opening packs anyway

cuz theyre worth it a lot of the time

[gray fog]

i would rather get guaranteed scaling if i can

[lost vault]

red card is guaranteed

[gray fog]

if red card is better in a situation ill take it tho

[humble gulch]

Bruh...

[lost vault]

you get 2 packs every shop

guaranteed

and you can always skip them

[fringe nebula]

it's about saving money, while having enough scoring power to survive earlygame

[gray fog]

fuck i mean like

if i dont wanna skip one

[terse vale]

so red card

[zinc sigil]

Its so hard

[humble gulch]

Jack's brother also got an ace

[lost vault]

well sometimes you need to in order to survive

[zinc sigil]

I thought orange stake was hard but rental jokers are fucking nuts u cant ever use them early

[fringe nebula]

red card is better in alot of situations

[gray fog]

i havent seen that

[fringe nebula]

correct

[lost vault]

you just dont have an open mind

[gray fog]

i dont play much tho

[zinc sigil]

So what if I have shit jokers early what do I do

[gray fog]

until recently

[gray fog]

no i dont have like upwards of 30 hrs

i played this game for like 2 weeks

i havent seen much lol

[humble gulch]

"Here, win"

[lost vault]

then u should take into consideration what people tell u i think

[gray fog]

i use flushes a lot of the time and i depend on luck

[fringe nebula]

can you give me a seed as an example?

[gray fog]

ok my bad red card is good

i said it

[rigid kindle]

Is there a way to see how many games you've played/won in total?

[zinc sigil]

Can I tag u next time I find one

[fringe nebula]

sure

feel free

[zinc sigil]

Kk will do

[modern marsh]

I just did :)

Pls pls pls pls someone check it out

I have so many ideas there

Like SO so many

#1155557846805643434

[humble gulch]

Hehe

[zinc sigil]

Is there a point to play if u cant get through small blind in one hand ante 1

[fringe nebula]

nope

oh

[fringe nebula]

there is a point

don't reset simply because you lose $1

[zinc sigil]

Cause I reset runs if I dont get a good straight or flush

[stone shell]

its called ✨ experience ✨

[zinc sigil]

Just feel like every dollar counts really hard in gs

[fringe nebula]

you could beat ante 1 small blind with 4 hands, but then find a game winning joker at the first shop by opening buffoon pack

[gray fog]

dude at that point its purely luck

[wet burrow]

rolled down 5k no bean 💀

[gray fog]

a high scoring straight flush is like ur only bet dont sweat it

[stone shell]

what if i cant buy madness because of that 😔

[gray fog]

what if madness doesnt show up

[gray fog]

everything doesnt have to go exactly to plan, part of the game is adapting to the randomness

[terse dock]

Can't buy cloud 9 either

[frank notch]

immo here or no?

[fringe nebula]

yes

[terse dock]

ankh the immolate

[still pike]

3 scary face so scary haha (ignore that gay bloodstone

[stone shell]

obviously you hex the deck

[terse dock]

Its ante 4 why do you have showman

[eager bluff]

Stacking up generational debt to feed red card is a viable strategy

[atomic trout]

Somehow I'm living

[gray fog]

how much mult u at rn

[eager bluff]

80

[lost vault]

get outta debt croski 💔

[gray fog]

jesus

[fringe nebula]

balatro out of context : I'm living somehow

[frank notch]

flint incoming is my jokerless run over

[fringe nebula]

o7
i love flint on jokerless challenge

[atomic trout]

Nah

[stone shell]

applies to 90% of adults

[atomic trout]

I can't stop it 😄

[frank notch]

nvm it ended on the big blind before because i couldnt draw a straight

[atomic trout]

Does Seed Money work?

[fringe nebula]

no

[lost vault]

balatro out of context
god i need some hung men rn

[lost vault]

what do you mean by this

[ancient gyro]

2 pair has more jokers that take benefit from on card scoring on top of base chips (todd, scary, arrow, hiker, 10-4, etc)

[wanton spoke]

does anyone know why i keep getting kicked when i join balatro multiplayer discord

[lost vault]

yes seed money is a functional voucher

[terse dock]

You lose 2 dollars with debt

[frank notch]

balatro out of context: i LOVE bbc (now i need spare pants)

[lost vault]

default pfp

[gray fog]

thats racist imo

[wanton spoke]

oh ok

[atomic trout]

Does it work with my build?

[fringe nebula]

why did you

[terse dock]

mf a pfp isnt a race

[lost vault]

i mean, it can

if you stop going into debt

[atomic trout]

No 😄

[lost vault]

then np

no

[atomic trout]

Seed Money sucks

[terse dock]

Seed money actually takes away money if youre in debt

[fringe nebula]

seed money is decent

[lost vault]

no actually, credit card sucks

[atomic trout]

And Hermit doesn't do anything

[atomic trout]

But.. I love a poly Credit Card

[lost vault]

would you rather it double your debt?

[void lintel]

did you want to go to -$80 or smth

[fringe nebula]

credit card is good

[lost vault]

no it isnt

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[fringe nebula]

you have no idea how useful credit card is until you play black deck

[lost vault]

credit card is a one time use $20 that takes away your interest

it can be useful but its not worth holding onto

[serene forge]

credit card is a card that reads, "increase temperance value by 1 dollar"

[atomic trout]

Nevermind, I won

[lost vault]

true,,,

[serene forge]

credit card is bad but inoffensive at least

unlike some other things...

[lost vault]

showman

cough

[atomic trout]

More like Slowman

[fringe nebula]

but yeah, credit card is kinda meh outside black deck gold stake i guess

it's really useful on black deck gs tho

[terse dock]

What joker beside showman is most likely to be a white supremacist

Baron

[serene forge]

photograph probably

[fringe nebula]

loyalty card

[humble gulch]

Oops, all xmult

[lost vault]

"all xmult"
look inside
foil rebate

[humble gulch]

Shut up, it barely affects my score

[atomic trout]

You were all right! Credit Card suuuuucks

[fringe nebula]

[atomic trout]

The run goes on

[lost vault]

[atomic trout]

I'm keeping Swash, he's lovely

[fallen saffron]

BALATRO IS JUST LUCK is like saying ro sham bo is luck like it not

[atomic trout]

I'm running on Pairs

[humble gulch]

Skill issue

[fringe nebula]

[fallen saffron]

ro sham bo?

[haughty cairn]

It’s just rock paper scissors

[fallen saffron]

dead chat

[humble gulch]

High roll

[humble gulch]

I'm more of a doors guy

Nevermind, Luchardor sucks.

[fringe nebula]

🐴

🐴 🗿

[terse dock]

Are you sure it was luchador sucking and not your build

[lost vault]

yeah lucha dor lost the run

trus

[cloud sinew]

build that dies to endless scaling vs endless scaling

[still pike]

What do I take as my first joker?

[lost vault]

"build that dies to endless scaling" isnt that just any build

smh

[cloud sinew]

wait you couldnt score 560k in 4 hands

[cloud sinew]

sock

[edgy stone]

Photo, survival first

[lost vault]

sock is survival

gets u some chips

[lunar zealot]

It's like jankenpon

[wintry ice]

sock helps a lot less for survival

[lost vault]

maybe

but its not eterna

so it can be sold out of

[cloud sinew]

poly and chips is more than enough

[lost vault]

yeh

[fringe nebula]

i'm leaning towards sock honestly

[amber zephyr]

I'm so cooked 😭

[still pike]

I lost right after sadly

[cloud sinew]

"Survival first" applies if theres a major difference in survival opportunity

[lost vault]

proof that triboulet is the worst legendary

[still pike]

😭

[cloud sinew]

YOU TOOK AN ECTO???

[lost vault]

its checkererd! clearly it was a good move!

[cloud sinew]

On white stake...

[lost vault]

tru

[cloud sinew]

negatives are not that good twin

[amber zephyr]

I'm buns at the game can you blame me

[lost vault]

yes

[cloud sinew]

Yes

[lost vault]

yes we can

if you lose because youre bad then thats on you i reckon

[cloud sinew]

if you know its bad dont do it, if you dont know its bad well now you do

[wintry ice]

in shambos

[terse vale]

what are we doing

[amber zephyr]

Tbh I play casually I have no idea what I'm doing

[terse dock]

"I'm bad at sailing so its not my fault that the titanic sank!"

[lost vault]

weird analogy

the titanic was not a sailboat

[terse dock]

I made it up on the spot

[amber zephyr]

I just realized

It appears I can be blamed

[terse dock]

mrrp :3

goodnight

[lost vault]

mreow ^w^

[amber zephyr]

I may be stupid

[lost vault]

nini

[lunar zealot]

Such is life

There are many things out of our control but it makes what we can control that much more important

Balatro is a game where you don't get everything you want by just asking

but everything has a purpose and if you're smart you can make it work

you don't win balatro runs only by getting lucky

[amber zephyr]

Why people dropping the hardest lines of all time in a discord server about balala joker poker

[slow iris]

violent vessel obliterated

[wicked sonnet]

i still haven't got a gold sticker on rebate 😭

[quartz salmon]

Should I be rolling for DNA or colas? If so do I sell a brainstorm for it

[serene forge]

actual biblical levels of greed

what the fuck do you mean you ectoed in this setup and lost

how do you still manage to not draw a flush on fucking checkered

????

[amber zephyr]

I have no idea what ecto means

[serene forge]

ectoplasm

[slow iris]

why and

how

[amber zephyr]

No discards, hand size down, 4 hearts, 4 spades

[serene forge]

where the fuck did your 3 other discards go

[slow iris]

consumed

was kinda hungry mb

[amber zephyr]

Tbh I can't remember

[slow iris]

sobquestion

[serene forge]

lesbian yorick be like

[icy fable]

Oh Man
I wish i had a rare Xmult scaling joker!!!

[humble gulch]

Infinite greed

[low sorrel]

Ive never gotten a pack like this before. Is it normal?

[ashen tide]

Yeppers

[zinc willow]

Could get any glass or i mightve made it a little further

Not a bad seed though

[humble gulch]

Yes

[craggy gale]

Very funny game

It’s not a big deal but like lmao

[low sorrel]

Oh okay. Ive never seen that before

[zinc willow]

For gold stake thats wild

[ashen tide]

Lucky it's only the first ante

[craggy gale]

Even if it’s not it’s still fine

[zinc willow]

How many photos Chad's and plutos do I need to hit 1billion?

[craggy gale]

I mean that depends on a lot of things

[low sorrel]

Do vampire and hanging Chad work together?

[zinc willow]

Assume like half my kings are steele

[craggy gale]

If you’re talking about triggering the vampire effect again, no

[humble gulch]

No, vampire only suck once

[low sorrel]

Thats too bad

[craggy gale]

Then that also depends on your hand size

[zinc willow]

Damn hadn't considered the number of Variables in the equation

[sharp lantern]

kinda random but are there any AI researchers in here? i submitted a proposal to look into tool assisted llm reasoning evaluation on balatro

[humble gulch]

You need like two photo chads and a level 40 high card

Or 30

[zinc willow]

40?!?!?!?! How do people hit naninf with 26th lvl b high card

[humble gulch]

Cuz every king gives up to ×1.5¹⁶

[zinc willow]

Is that Steele red seal?

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[glad aspen]

My build consists purely of legs

[humble gulch]

That's ×656 per king

[humble gulch]

I see some other parts there

[zinc willow]

Leg runs are THE BOMB DIGGITY!!! idc what anyone says

[green apex]

my rock WAS a heart, why does blackboard still get affected by it 😭

[glad aspen]

No no, stuntman and baseball are wearing the pants while doing acrobatics

[versed sable]

mm 900 high card

[limber nova]

Pokermon is very fair and balanced

[green apex]

wtf

[versed sable]

it's not a spade or club so it doesn't count

[green apex]

uh thats cool

[humble gulch]

How do you know that stuntman is wearing pants

Hm?

[green apex]

still a rock

[glad aspen]

Becauase i made him

[green apex]

it says no rank/suit

[versed sable]

blackboard says it has to be spade or club

wild cards do work, stones don't

[versed sable]

many hands c:

[green apex]

so if i discard the rock, it will work

hmm

L

[green apex]

how early was the burglar 😭

[glad aspen]

If you play a singular wild card does that hit all 4 suits on flower vase?

[humble gulch]

If that's you logic, you would need two more pants for the acrobats

[humble gulch]

It doesn't work

[green apex]

which is stupid ^^

[versed sable]

do you need an early burglar if you have a ton of BP+BS
i think it was at something like ante 10 idk

[humble gulch]

Wild cards don't do anything with flower pot

[icy fable]

I have an idea

[glad aspen]

No, they are the acrobats.

[humble gulch]

I wouldn't like to see some nude acrobats...

[craggy gale]

[glad aspen]

Theyre not nude, theyre stuntman and baseball wearing pants

What arent you getting

Im telling a story here

[echo sphinx]

one dollar blueprint !!!

[humble gulch]

That's actually a really good comeback

[green apex]

if only it was always 1 dollar 😔

[glad aspen]

Ive been saying this from the beginning 🫩

[wicked sonnet]

do you even take this

if you take the voucher it's only 70 cents 🤑

[craggy gale]

Dude.

[wicked sonnet]

follow for more balala tips

[craggy gale]

I wouldn’t ngl

[glad aspen]

Sexy...

[wicked sonnet]

copy nothing 🔥

[quartz salmon]

Should I roll for dna/ cola? If so do I sell brainstorm?

[versed sable]

@green apex

[wicked sonnet]

it seems like atrap

[craggy gale]

True

[green apex]

ggs

[gaunt burrow]

no face card deck is not that bad , 2nd gold stake

[humble gulch]

Thank you

[versed sable]

believe so yeah

[green apex]

oh what, how does blueprint and brainstorm give you hands

wouldnt you need burglar or..?

[versed sable]

burglar is 2nd joker

[green apex]

ah

hmm

[glad aspen]

💘
Since i won i get 3 more runs before bedtime

Ill update

[versed sable]

44 hands per round for the rest of the run now

[humble gulch]

Three more losses

[green apex]

44 😭

[humble gulch]

[green apex]

from 5 to 44 😭

[versed sable]

i have a few copying jokers

[glad aspen]

Not if i win 💯

[craggy gale]

I may be a dumbass

[green apex]

hmm

[craggy gale]

Ok I need to stop throwing lmao

[green apex]

so i have red, ghost and plasma gold staked, blue sitting on gold stake, yellow on orange

hmmmm

[low sorrel]

I just got my first purple stake

[green apex]

then there is every other deck on blue stake cause that sucks

[green apex]

ggs!

[echo sphinx]

the greed of holding emperor tarot (?)

[low sorrel]

Thanks!

How long does it typically take people to get the purple stake

[green apex]

i dont know

depends on how people play

[craggy gale]

No I just bet too much into strush

And uh

You see how that turned out

[low sorrel]

It took me 90 hours

[green apex]

some may try and get the stakes up on one deck, some may do stake by stake

[icy fable]

I did it

[green apex]

there is no real accurate way to measure how long it took someone

[green apex]

woah

now THAT looks cool

well photoshopped 🔥

[craggy gale]

Ngl I just unlocked everything on this profile lmao

[low sorrel]

I just looked at my play hours

[echo sphinx]

thats a new lvl of greed

[green apex]

yeah but the way people do stakes are different

[craggy gale]

And only play on either white, black or gold stakes

[green apex]

ohh

well strush is very tempting

[craggy gale]

I mean not really considering checkered and all

[green apex]

huh

[low sorrel]

Congrats 👏 👏

[green apex]

i thought thats normal, i would go for strush asw

[green apex]

wdym congrats

[echo sphinx]

true ig

[craggy gale]

No I meant I just pressed unlock everything

[green apex]

its the unlock all button

i cant believe i still have 2 challenges left

[humble gulch]

Campfire

[green apex]

i was at 60% the other day wtf happened

[craggy gale]

Ok so I just now learned that rental gros michel will still rob you even if it goes extinct

[fringe nebula]

good job

[tawny venture]

vv thought it could pull a fast one 🤣

[green apex]

purple on purple

that looks so cool

[glad aspen]

Bro i was cooking up but i had to sell a joker due to the boss blind and i died 🫩

I had eternal swash, eternal polychrome stuntman, eternal foil blue print, polychrome ramen, and uhhh repeat hands x3 mult guy

🫩

I dont even wanna plau my other 2 i just wanna go to bed

[flat tiger]

photo sock won the run, then Chad shows up with BS but still only got to ante 12

dusk hand still only got 52 mil

[drowsy rain]

Baitest bait ever baited

What do i even do

[zinc sigil]

Right

This is unloseable richt

[eternal kestrel]

Guys how does endless scale

[humble gulch]

Like, 500,000 > 1,100,000, 10,000,000 > 13 billion > e13, e15 and so

[eternal kestrel]

What is that as a function

[humble gulch]

X number times 10 times 13

[eternal kestrel]

Thank you

[sand lily]

Rocket at $21 - I kind of wish lucky cat had been here earlier because I have a bunch of lucky face cards

[flat tiger]

photo photo chad alone is enough for ante 10?

[errant bolt]

🗳️ 🖼️

[brave fox]

What yall think i should get rid of for the invisi joker

[worn drum]

Finally beat Anaglyph gold stake

[humble gulch]

I'd pass

[green apex]

i wouldnt take it

but if score is a problem i would take the supernova for chips

[worn drum]

On plasma I'd take it over gluttonous tbh

[brave fox]

The supernova is all shiny rn too

[worn drum]

It's white stake, I'd drop the drunkard and take supernova to survive

Then sell golden and hallucination before popping the invis

[brave fox]

I could get rid of all 3 rn, it is just the 2nd ante

[formal oriole]

My ecto is -2 hand size do I use it for the invis? (No hand size vouchers) id be at 5 handsize

I’m going for observatory

Please help I’m so nervous

I’m not playing until I know

[green apex]

whats your goal with this run

[formal oriole]

Nane infe

I took it I got impatient

[green apex]

naneinf is not possible

handsize is way too low

also observatory? its a bit too late for that to have a huge effect

[formal oriole]

It hit the DNA 😭

[green apex]

ecto?

you should only ecto once

[sand lily]

I just finished C++ 🙂

[green apex]

yoooo huge

ggs!!

[sand lily]

Glad I got it before new jokers added...I'm a little scared of the new banana

[green apex]

im like only, 70% of the way there

the EASY 70%

[worn drum]

What deck should I go for next

I'm done with ghost, Anaglyph, painted and checkered

Considering zodiac or yellow

[formal oriole]

How many pluto’s will I need for nane inf. With let’s say 14 red steel kings from serpent

[worn drum]

The problem with observatory naneinf is that every pluto is 1.5x flat. Unlike a steel red seal king which has retrigger and scoring options

[foggy berry]

so what did you end up doing ?

[worn drum]

Also use a calculator I'd say

[sand lily]

Have you tried green deck? It's nice because you don't have to worry about interest. If you find vagabond it's maximum fun

[worn drum]

That's fair actually, rentals also don't matter as much

Cuz you're no longer worried about interest thresholds

You've convinced me, green deck time

[slow iris]

vagabond is an econ joker

[flat tiger]

vagabond + credit card until you get lucky enough with lucky cards to get out of debt

or just use vagabond the whole run

[edgy stone]

A good policy for poor people

[humble gulch]

Vagabond is the third best econ joker

WHAT AM I SAYING

[flat tiger]

more like the card makes you want to get poor

[lost vault]

hear that fellas? the homeless are profitable

[flat tiger]

who needs a home when you can keep getting what you want most

[edgy stone]

Im homeless and need subsidy, 1$ each hand play is good

[flat tiger]

the only problem is when you have $4 and need to sell a card

or when you only get money tarots during the round 😂

[slow iris]

become rich with vagabond today

[edgy stone]

Let me guess: top 1 is rebate and top 2 is perkeo

[humble gulch]

I'd consider mime as a econ joker too

[lost vault]

im an econ joker guys :3

[waxen stream]

everything is an econ joker if you try hard enough

[edgy stone]

How u define as an econ Joker?

[waxen stream]

allows you to get more money

[green apex]

can be directly or indirectly

[edgy stone]

Is Chaos an econ? Burnt Joker or Spaceman? They saves your money from not opening planet pack.

[lost vault]

the call me an econ joker the way i be directly or indirectly be making fat stacks

[green apex]

spaceman is anti econ, its rare you get an actual level up

[waxen stream]

for example, gros michel is an econ joker because with more mult you can beat the blind in less hands, meaning you get money for each hand left

[green apex]

and costs you hands for money

burglar is an econ joker for more hands\

[waxen stream]

yes

[toxic wolf]

Played a random seed before going to bed. Ended up with a first shop vagabond and a deck full of nearly only red seal gold kings. didn’t find a single fuckin idol though.

Two ectos helped, but not much.

Juggler was a nat negative though.

[edgy stone]

Credit card is indirectedly anti econ. Allow you to spend and more dept

[waxen stream]

yes, it's fake econ

[lunar zealot]

Credit card is a mix between econ and util

bad econ and bad util are still econ and util

[toxic wolf]

Welp. I tried real fuckin hard to save this. No idol sucks.

Saved by the only two steel cards in my deck, I should’ve made so much more.

Ugh got so close.

[wise cliff]

how many hours do people usually have in the game when they get their first naneinf

[lunar zealot]

it doesn't really matter too much

naneinf isn't an indicator of skill insomuch as just wanting to get it

[toxic wolf]

Naneinf unseeded is a proper pain. But like. Naneinf is just a case of spending hours upon hours learning one good seed.

[lilac ruin]

fun gold stake seed

[subtle drum]

I KEEP ACCIDENTALLY RESETTING MY RTB AND JUST LOST BC OF IT AAAA

[lilac ruin]

i have like 600 hours on the game and i still havent gotten it lol

[wise cliff]

I've been sorta going for it unseeded

just got this pb

[subtle drum]

same and 700 hours

[wise cliff]

the luck needed seems insane though

[lilac ruin]

theres people that have gotten naninf streaks so its more consistent than people think

[frozen swan]

LET'S GOOOO

first win at orange stake

444,444

[lilac ruin]

just a different skill set than what gold stake requires or what most ppl are good at

[wise cliff]

I do every run into endless just because I like seeing how far I can get, but sometimes I do white stake as a break from higher stakes and try to get a really good pb

[lilac ruin]

i advise at least if ur trying to go for naninf just reset if you dont get the first reroll voucher by the first 8 antes

anti matter before ante 9 is also a really strong start

otherwise just reset imo

[wise cliff]

yeah that's fair

I get really really unlucky with vouchers

I don't think I even got blank that run

[frozen swan]

BRO

does this mean that i'll have to pay $3 per round to use them?

I mean

[humble gulch]

They always cost 1$ tho

[frozen swan]

what

[humble gulch]

Rental jokers always cost 1$

[frozen swan]

oh

OH

ok

it's a type of joker

[humble gulch]

It's an investment

[frozen swan]

I thought that EVERY joker I bought it would cost $3 per round

[frozen swan]

that's in the shop?

[humble gulch]

Also sell value

[frozen swan]

hmm

[humble gulch]

You can add sell value with gift card tho

[frozen swan]

that's good

also I got the new deck

does this deck has a buffed seed that every card is like all kings or smth?

[humble gulch]

Erratic it's not that good, you need to get lucky

[humble gulch]

There's a seed where every card is a ten of spades

It's a bug tho

[frozen swan]

ah

[humble gulch]

You can't get a seed like that naturally

[frozen swan]

ok

thanks for the info

playing white stake after some of the last stakes it's like breathing air again

[humble gulch]

You get used to gold stake really fast

[quartz crypt]

Is there a way to sync up my steam progress with mobile

[humble gulch]

No

[frozen swan]

I would like to know that as well

[quartz crypt]

[frozen swan]

oh

[humble gulch]

I need that fib hack

Died

No way... It can't be... A good deck for straights?

[thin rover]

Good ol clench win

[drowsy rain]

Dying

I opened the celestial and got no saturn

[frozen swan]

that was fun while it lasted

seeded erratic run

[median grove]

is steel better than foil?

on a card

[flat tiger]

early foil is better late steel is better

[median grove]

im a late man
