[foggy berry]

setup of all time

[echo sphinx]

how about the shop

i can cope

[fringe nebula]

shop is fine

but you can't use emperor

which is

🗿

[foggy berry]

even in shop, u can only buy 1

can't go into round with 2 cards

[echo sphinx]

rip

can cheat out a bit more

i bring the tarots and buy a tarot pack

[fringe nebula]

insane earlygame draw wtf

[echo sphinx]

what am i looking at

[fringe nebula]

i draw nearly draw all of the spades with 2 discards at ante 1

[maiden peak]

I think this game genuinely has something against me

[tardy spade]

Runner is on 105 chips, is that enough? Should I focus pants?

[coarse dew]

vagabond

wild pull

[echo sphinx]

NEVER PUNISHE

[solemn tide]

yeah it doesnt come enough

[queen kindle]

this shit got a shop 1 rare tag bp

[subtle loom]

death could also work if you plan to replace junk card

but i dont think youd need it consider your question

[subtle loom]

youre winner

[queen kindle]

truly

[manic vault]

wtf judgement gave me a negative joker

[queen kindle]

deadass fib and onyx agate baseball all my goats showed up

build so cracked soul wouldve been a detrimeny

[fringe nebula]

the most gold stake looking build ever

(i rerolled violet vessel btw)

[subtle loom]

oops werent meant to reply

[echo sphinx]

holy judgement

[fringe nebula]

vagabond on nebula deck.......

you can't hold those hermits and temperances on nebula which sucks

[coarse dew]

yeahhh

[subtle loom]

nebula is boring

black deck is hard as balls

[coarse dew]

you can't copy Vaga either

[echo sphinx]

it is what it is

[coarse dew]

always stuck to 1

[echo sphinx]

ITS STILL ONE TAROT PER HAND

[fringe nebula]

true

[coarse dew]

fair

[fringe nebula]

vagabond is basically 1 hand for $3

[subtle loom]

ive never used vagabind much tbf

[echo sphinx]

I CLAIMED ANTIMATTER

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[fringe nebula]

you're missing out

[echo sphinx]

instant win

[subtle loom]

getting a ton of tarot is good

nit having money for joker is bad

tho

hermit and temper

[fringe nebula]

you do have money with vagabond

[echo sphinx]

LOL

[fringe nebula]

lucky cards, devil, temp, and hermit

[subtle loom]

and you would probably gomna play many hand anyway

sclaing purpose

for these scaling jokers

[fringe nebula]

i feel like vagabond would work better with retriggers rather than scaling jokers

[subtle loom]

fair

[fringe nebula]

well, i did vagabond grimbo run once

still pretty good

[echo sphinx]

O NO

ITS GAMBLING TIME

lost

ok no brainstom

[fringe nebula]

wait

don't tell me you sold

seeing double

or shortcut

[subtle loom]

i didnt sold

[fringe nebula]

I'm not talking to you

[subtle loom]

i got fucked in the run with it

[subtle loom]

sorry

[dusty void]

Guys I have a question

I have Balatro on my phone and PS5

Should I get it on Steam for mods

[split rivet]

depends if u want to

[dusty void]

I mean I wanna try out cryptid and stuff

but idk because I don't wanna risk getting bored after a few days and just stop

[split rivet]

I don't think there will be many people here trying to talk you out of it

[dusty void]

Yea I guess you're right

[fringe nebula]

balatro on pc is great because of qol and mods

but it's not necessary

[dusty void]

I know it isn't

That's why is so difficult

But again

I can also play in school then since phones are banned

So yea

[potent cairn]

hello chuds

[flat tiger]

so how many hour do people usually beat every gold stake deck

[fringe nebula]

pardon?

[potent cairn]

probably someone with 300 hour playtime idk

[dusty void]

depends on the deck

[flat tiger]

like beat every deck on gold stake?

[dusty void]

oh C++?

[fringe nebula]

oh

[flat tiger]

since you need to work your way up

[dusty void]

C+*

I have 250 and only halfway through

[fringe nebula]

c+ took me like 25 hours playtime because i watched some guides on youtube

[dusty void]

but I play casually so

[flat tiger]

i just beat painter deck green at 60 hours, further decks are not unlocked yet

its gonna take a long time

[fringe nebula]

wait nvm, it should be longer because i did unlock all jokers before going for c+

i think it's 80?

[dusty void]

Okay nvm I don't have enough rn

😔

[echo sphinx]

nom

[flat tiger]

banana popcorn and icecream sure love showing up together instead of one per ante

[dusty void]

Why the FUCK is my steam refusing to open

[fringe nebula]

i mean

[flat tiger]

you crossed lord gabe

[fringe nebula]

i wouldn't mind seeing banana, popcorn, and icecream at ante 1

[manic vault]

holy crap thats a lot of jokers

[flat tiger]

i sure love those all scoring jokers zero econ rolls into a slow death

i dont need to buy anything but I am only living off of interest

[fringe nebula]

you only take banana and that's it

[flat tiger]

or that one time the stupid banana lasted 5 ante refusing to break

[manic vault]

yeah that's annoying

banana is supposed to stay with u until u build ur engine and then die

and then we wait for better banana

[echo sphinx]

im so dead

[flat tiger]

i am pretty sure it was 6 ante because I bought the vourcher

the banana is just LOOKING AT ME refusing to go

[orchid comet]

do i grab perm arrowhead in first shop or just open the baffoon pack

[flat tiger]

i dont without some kinda deck fixing first

but half the time the pack is worse

[orchid comet]

oh yay gambling

got fibonacci

[rugged bloom]

Today's Balatrodle in 5

[flat tiger]

I love it when I got no direction and cooked a bunch of 9 then fib show up and C9 is never seen

[mental bloom]

whats the play help

what do i sell for bp

[rugged bloom]

What are you playing?

Show us your deck

And levels

[mental bloom]

pairs

pairs are level 9

[rugged bloom]

I'd sell fib and burnt for Constellation and BP

[mental bloom]

and deck isn't fixed at all i just have a foil 8 that i want to try to copy but no deaths

[rugged bloom]

But don't take my word for it

[mental bloom]

hmmm

i see what you mean

[fringe nebula]

if you can survive, i would replace the duo with constel

[flat tiger]

ante 5 is a litttttle late for constellation but I guess

[rugged bloom]

Again, I only have 4 gold stake decks

So don't take my word for it

[fringe nebula]

wrong

[foggy berry]

today they're giving us whatever this is

[rugged bloom]

I'm biased

[fringe nebula]

ante 5 constellation is not late at all

[mental bloom]

tho i have telescope so planet packs will be worth it

[rugged bloom]

10 planet cards for X2 mult is worth it

[mental bloom]

good idea yeah

[rugged bloom]

Fib stays?

[mental bloom]

random bullshit go!

[flat tiger]

would selling duo instead and greed for more pair level be too greedy here?

[rugged bloom]

The Big Bang Theory cast

[mental bloom]

i don't really have mult if no fib

[mental bloom]

we need to be greedy

[rugged bloom]

Fair enough

Hello Greedy Joker

[mental bloom]

wrng

im

[fringe nebula]

x9 from blueprint card sharp is not enough?

[mental bloom]

gift card

[mental spire]

You already got the burnt ... Constellation would be useless with your pair build

[flat tiger]

if you do pair fib is like 16 mult?

[mental bloom]

i guess but i also want to protect myself from needle/eye

[fringe nebula]

fair

[mental spire]

Id say sell the Fibonacci nd get the bp

[flat tiger]

yeah, fib is 16 mult, BP card sharp is 9X

[mental bloom]

tho it can scale compared to duo

[rugged bloom]

The eye of the needle thirsts for your blood

[mental bloom]

oh hell no

[flat tiger]

keep the burnt maybe worth

[mental bloom]

rn it's the mark but im on abandoned

[mental spire]

Ofc mate... But the burnt will help alot .... You got the telescope vocher ?

[mental bloom]

yup i mentioned that earlier

[mental spire]

Aight... Didn't notice

[mental bloom]

dw

[mental spire]

But still

[rugged bloom]

I still feel constellation and BP are both worth it

[mental spire]

Constellation ain't worth rn

[flat tiger]

TBH i think BP card sharp will carry long enough for burnt to give enough level and consellation to start doing stuff

[rugged bloom]

You should sell the mail-in rebate

[foggy berry]

🤤

[rugged bloom]

You don't need econ right now

[mental bloom]

eternal

thats what i wanted to sell but its eternal

[rugged bloom]

Nobody gets high quality bait anymore 🥀

[mental bloom]

and ill go bankrupt without it anyways

[mental bloom]

nuh uuhhhh

[mental bloom]

wowwww

no card face down

ok i sold duo for bp

[foggy berry]

why . . .

[rugged bloom]

1% odds

[flat tiger]

the one time I see 5 facedown card on the left thinking its the face cards but it was "1 in 7"

[foggy berry]

not rly

[mental bloom]

gambling

[rugged bloom]

Not taking the constellation?

[rugged bloom]

How

Wait

Sorry 10% odds

[foggy berry]

1/7 is 2/14

[rugged bloom]

What

Oh okay

Good bait

10/10

[mental bloom]

baited

[flat tiger]

is fib duo better then BP + constellation here?

[foggy berry]

yes they shd sell fib

and copy burnt joker

for bp

[rugged bloom]

Fib duo is what they used to call me and my friend who lied a lot

[foggy berry]

+2 mult per round

but depends on their current mult situation . . .

maybe fib is their life support . . . hard to tell

[rugged bloom]

+2

[mental bloom]

o no what am i gonna do

[foggy berry]

no constellation

already have 18x mult

[rugged bloom]

I would've sold burnt for Constellation

[mental bloom]

yup it kinda is

[echo sphinx]

lets go gambling

[mental bloom]

ehhh

[foggy berry]

u would've made it still methinks, what was ur pair levels ?

[mental bloom]

9

[foggy berry]

yes easily u would have made it

[echo sphinx]

could just swap it

[rugged bloom]

Anyone got the Credit Card in the Buffoon Pack même?

[foggy berry]

swapping just fib for bp

start of next round ur at 11 mult x18

[flat tiger]

is fib just +16 mult when he is playing pair

[foggy berry]

ye

[mental bloom]

i have some steel cards here and there to help

[rugged bloom]

Yes

[echo sphinx]

lol

[flat tiger]

theres no way BP card shaprp dont make up for 16 mult

[echo sphinx]

j u s t s w a p

[rugged bloom]

I would've taken the constellation too

[echo sphinx]

burnt
discard pair
swap
fib
and you proc both in a round

[foggy berry]

for what

[rugged bloom]

For burnt

Yeah

I would've

But then again, maybe that's why I only have 4 gold stake decks

[foggy berry]

ejoy ur ante 5 constellation twin

duo is already 2x

c sharp 3x and copy that with bp for 9x

burnt ur only consistent source of scaling +mult

copy with bp for +2 mult per round

[mental bloom]

yea im still alive thats the most important part

[foggy berry]

tough to imagine constellation fit in there btu thats just me . .

[echo sphinx]

xmulte is xmulte

no need to get The Needle'd

[foggy berry]

not to mention, burnt is chip and mult. truly a rare joker . . .

[rugged bloom]

I gobble up planets like I'm a black hole

[foggy berry]

+30 chips per round 🤤

[flat tiger]

Ditch fib for constellation seems fine to me? it should make up for +16 mult in a few rounds if not instantly with the BP card sharp

[foggy berry]

i mean, there's no wrong answer

if that works then it works

[mental bloom]

thats why i didnt take it

[flat tiger]

at the end of the day just get lucky

[rugged bloom]

I build for Straight flushes

[mental bloom]

thoooo i had a blue seal so maybe constellation could've been good

it'll be my 200th win btw

[echo sphinx]

rn id say constellation is not good but i forgot the deck isn't called nebula
so constellation good

[foggy berry]

the prospect of +2 hand levels every round with burnt is too good for me

even with blue seal i wouldn't have taken the const

[echo sphinx]

how to checke win

[mental bloom]

you?

[foggy berry]

shows in profile

[echo sphinx]

ohh

[mental bloom]

go to your profile in the bottom left corner of the main menu

[echo sphinx]

lol 85 wins

[mental bloom]

i see

[echo sphinx]

idk how much i played balatro

oh

60 hours

one win per hour

thats crazy

uk whats crazier tho

[mental bloom]

[echo sphinx]

copy card sharp and pray

[fringe nebula]

luchador

[mental bloom]

fr

[fringe nebula]

actually

[mental bloom]

yeah but where

[foggy berry]

the duo rly would've come in handy 💔

[mental bloom]

yeah 😭😭

[fringe nebula]

i don't think 600k violet vessel is that bad

[echo sphinx]

the humble constellation:

[fringe nebula]

should've replaced fibonacci

[mental bloom]

yeah

i have enough mult from pair level now

[echo sphinx]

i like winning

but

why al econ lol

[foggy pond]

I have little less

[manic vault]

and then we wait for better banana

[mental bloom]

riff raff clutch?

ok well nvm i think i might be good

[echo sphinx]

what clutch are you even expecting

[mental bloom]

card sharp was infact useful

[echo sphinx]

yaya

[mental bloom]

none thats the joke 😭😭

[echo sphinx]

😭

[mental bloom]

I WONNNN

blehhhh

o wow face cards its been a while

are we serious

NO 8s???

[echo sphinx]

lol

[rocky nest]

Time to scale some dagger 🤑

[solemn tide]

happiness

[autumn bloom]

how many hanging chads do i need to naninf on 1st ante

[rugged bloom]

That's me alright

[rugged bloom]

67

[mental bloom]

Yes

[mental bloom]

🫥

[autumn bloom]

u lied

not even 2 photographs help

[south saffron]

They meant 67^67

[autumn bloom]

ohhh

[eager prawn]

The art of a clown

[autumn bloom]

9 photographs get a -nan

[rugged bloom]

So what you need is a score of 2^1024

The easiest way to do it is 32 photographs and 16 chads

[rugged bloom]

What's the difference between naneinf and -nan

[eager prawn]

[rugged bloom]

I know it probably has something to do with Integer overflow

[autumn bloom]

idfk

what it is

brb lemme try it

[lyric wave]

-nan is with mods, naneinf is without

-nan is also the scoring requirement for ante 39

[rugged bloom]

Makes sans

[eager prawn]

[oblique vault]

holy funny seed

[rugged bloom]

Is there a difference in how scoring limits and actual scores are calculated

[lyric wave]

unsure

[rugged bloom]

Can this individual get a ?

[eager prawn]

"Jeanne de arc" play style

[autumn bloom]

still a -nan

i think 87 chads will do it

[fringe nebula]

lmfao

[oblique vault]

natural negative eternal banner ante 1 and then 2 ankhs and a invis

then find merry and brainstorm

then die to the water

[eager prawn]

fin

[autumn bloom]

it takes 103 hanging chads and 3 photographs

[flat tiger]

i love when I am searching for a card for 5 ante, then a natural negative of said card shows up after I barely made it through ante 8

[eager prawn]

https://youtu.be/EpFrJeVTwQI?si=1FftCX6JPuRY8Lxy

[foggy berry]

u should probs buy golden joker here

[echo sphinx]

lol

[echo sphinx]

speculative brainstorm

[cursive crater]

just won against vessel thanks to loyalty card

first in my life ive used this effectively

[autumn bloom]

got to ante 39

[fringe nebula]

good

I shall remember thy name

[cursive crater]

on a straight build aswell

genuinely saved my ass on last reroll🥹 ✌️

[fringe nebula]

shoutout to this goofy ahh setup that barely managed to beat vessel

[slow iris]

Balatro

[bold gulch]

I love moolah

Money is life

[orchid comet]

whats the play

only grabbed baron incase of baron mime

doing two pairs

[oblique vault]

other run

money money money

[echo sphinx]

monis

[eager lynx]

judgement hit

[noble mango]

Do i pick eternal blueprint or natural negative space joker

[eager lynx]

prob the print

[noble mango]

Since negative . . .

And it's somewhat useful to any deck build
If lucky

tuff choice

ok i mean there's throwback and as another option on the pack

[haughty cairn]

Just take whatever you think is good or nothing at all you’ll never get better if you ask people to do everything for you

[orchid comet]

buffoon pack mightve been worth it

[fringe nebula]

you can call me crazy, but i would choose campfire over blueprint here

revisiting the most ridiculous gold stake seed i've played

like, lmao

[spark kernel]

Lucky (it was yorick) i got a game ove immedietly after

[haughty cairn]

Why eternal jimbo

[foggy berry]

discord says ur a spammer, is that true

[haughty cairn]

No discord is lying

[foggy berry]

i can't see the msg idk what ur saying 💔

[haughty cairn]

I said “No discord is lying”

[frank notch]

he said "No, discord is lying"

[foggy berry]

😨

[frank notch]

what platform are you on

[foggy berry]

me ?

[frank notch]

yes you

[foggy berry]

desktop app windows

[spark kernel]

Are we deadass

[frank notch]

me too

i thought youd be able to click show

[foggy berry]

correct

[frank notch]

and see knull's messages

[frank notch]

whyd you say this then

[foggy berry]

because i did not click to show

[echo sphinx]

looks good

[echo sphinx]

lol

[spark kernel]

Do yall just forget you have more than 2 discards when going back to lower stakes

[echo sphinx]

nope

[frank notch]

no

[echo sphinx]

but i can see that happening lol

[frank notch]

i dont play lower stakes

[foggy berry]

same thing happened to me on ghost deck and stencil was negative

[frank notch]

only for challenges

[foggy berry]

selling burnt before final boss felt so good

[fiery nymph]

noooooo burny

[orchid comet]

going back to white stake after playing purple for a while makes u realise you arent that bad

[spark kernel]

A nat negative joker blocked my tag from activating which killed my run

[fringe nebula]

yep lmao

it feels soooo weird to actually have 3 discards

[austere whale]

Hot take: Cruelty is harder than Jokerless, its just more typical Baltro gameplay so people are more used to it.

[noble mango]

Is it worth it to sacrifice polychrome smiley face for a second hanging chad

I already got photograph

[austere whale]

What is ur hand level

Probably yes it is worth

[noble mango]

Flush lv 7

[austere whale]

Yes it is worth it

[noble mango]

Photograph
chad
Showman
dna
smiley face polychrome
Negative space joker

[woven remnant]

I need checkered deck tips for golden stake pretty please

[noble mango]

Flush it down the toilet

[woven remnant]

I had no problem with other decks tho

[noble mango]

ok i mean what hand could you possibly go with checkered other than flush

Or flush variants

[woven remnant]

I dont know if it is a common complaint but

flush doesnt score very well

[lime lark]

time for another exciting day of "why the hell can't I manage to draw Triboulet on my PC save I'm 2 jokers from completionist Please I Beg You"

[noble mango]

Hm i mean

Right . . .

[noble mango]

Trib do be trippin

[woven remnant]

Im doing c+ I thought green deck would be pain

but wasting my money like a reckless idiot worked for me

[lime lark]

(guys from The Orville replicating cigarettes voice) Five. Hundred. Chicots.

[woven remnant]

but I cant get through checkered for some reason

[noble mango]

Green deck somehow made me feel free from the interest problems

[flat warren]

420 BlAzE iT

[noble mango]

Ok who the hell do i sell to shut this up

Photo, chad, chad, dna, showman, neg space joker

[woven remnant]

there is nothing to prevent you from invest your money immediately

[grave flower]

What do i do there's a perkeo waiting for me 😔

[wicked sonnet]

just had another +3 sticker c++ run

could've been more but i went for the guaranteed win

found bp brainstorm and mime with an ecto on ghost deck, the run probably coulda made it real far

relied on grimbo all game and reserved parking + mime for econ so had like $700 to farm the last shop for stickers

a bunch of red seal gold kings seriously coulda been a long run

[noble mango]

Pray it wasn't chicot/yorick/canio

[grave flower]

Nono i know its perkeo

I've looked into it

[flat warren]

I’m dumb so don’t listen but maybe dice?

[wicked sonnet]

don't take it at all

[flat warren]

Rip bloodstone tho

[flat warren]

What’s grimbo it sounds tasty

[wicked sonnet]

green joker

[grave flower]

Yeah, i thought i could survive with the sock and buskin

[wicked sonnet]

literally had polychrome green joker with two copies and it won me ante 8 gold stake 🔥

still so many more runs for c++...

[flat warren]

Meanwhile I’m just trying to get past round 45 😢

So much for 4+ hours a day 😂

[grave flower]

So i take temprance?

[wicked sonnet]

yeah

if you know it's perkeo don't take it

your run needs antimatter + ecto + dusk/copies to get further

perkeo won't do anything it will just hinder scoring

[grave flower]

But what if my run gets longer

[wicked sonnet]

e36 but only ante 17?

[wicked sonnet]

that's how you go longer. antimatter + ecto + dusk/copies

[flat warren]

I fumbled hard I guess lol

[wicked sonnet]

10000 flush is also crazy for you

[flat warren]

lol I played flush only before I learned how scoring works a little more

[wicked sonnet]

how'd you play it 10,000 times before learning 😭

[orchid comet]

do i get rid of mystic summit for foil chad in hopes of photochad?

[lime lark]

Grabber ($10) or Holographic Rocket ($9)? I'm about to go against the ante 1 boss and both will tank my interest

[wicked sonnet]

probably rocket

[orchid comet]

rocket fs

[lime lark]

gonna go with that

[wicked sonnet]

i'd probably drop it for castle tbh

[fringe nebula]

how did i miss this message lmao

i already did

[wicked sonnet]

but photochad isn't the absolute number 1 goal

you had solid winning chances already

[orchid comet]

wdym? drop castle for chad?

[wicked sonnet]

just keep scaling rtb

[wicked sonnet]

if they were to buy chad yeah

castle sucks

[ancient gyro]

😐

[fringe nebula]

absolutely not

you already have bus

[orchid comet]

heh my castle is at 69

[orchid comet]

i havent gotten to deck fix yet

[fringe nebula]

you don't need to deckfix with bus??????

[orchid comet]

tho most my face cards are gold cuz of midas mask

[orchid comet]

im just saying I can switch over to using face cards if needed

[wicked sonnet]

if you have rtb you don't need deck fixing

especially with a chips joker too

[livid scroll]

Brave is the man who fears naught, braver is the man who faces his fears

[wicked sonnet]

just get any xmult and you'll probably win

[orchid comet]

alright

[orchid comet]

cavendish hopefully

[wicked sonnet]

you can hope for it but anything works really

[orchid comet]

my luck is so good today

1 reroll and got bp

okay NOW i drop mystic

right?

[fringe nebula]

yes

[orchid comet]

W

[sullen aspen]

fun challenge

[wicked sonnet]

it calls me...

[sullen aspen]

full skipped the last 2 antes bc im lazy

[wicked sonnet]

ooo i still haven't done this one

[fringe nebula]

you will die to debt

[wicked sonnet]

[ancient gyro]

[brave goblet]

Unironic splash build

[orchid comet]

[wicked sonnet]

drop castle

[orchid comet]

[wicked sonnet]

[fringe nebula]

[orchid comet]

pulling a lot of those

[lime lark]

thank you based negative tag

[fringe nebula]

if venus level is higher than mercury, then yeah

whatev the game give you

[orchid comet]

got perkeo waiting for a good planet card soon

or hermit

[fringe nebula]

or death blue seal

[desert solstice]

[orchid comet]

blueprint is definitely there

maybe with rebate

[wicked sonnet]

i died next ante why did nobody warn me of this

[fringe nebula]

blackboard, cavendish, yorick

[wicked sonnet]

NOBODY could've seen this coming

[wicked sonnet]

yaoi and jimbo

[desert solstice]

this is true

[stark charm]

how is jimbo not in there

[wicked sonnet]

i'm glad we agree

[desert solstice]

i'm sorry, Yorick is NOT im the big three

[lime lark]

ok i see why showman is worth it

[fringe nebula]

too bad

for me, the big three are actually blackboard, yorick and obelisk

[wicked sonnet]

dear balala can i have c++ now pls thank

[fringe nebula]

112 is halfway to c++

38 is the second half

[wicked sonnet]

yeah

i figured

it's gonna be so annoying chasing the last few

[fringe nebula]

patience game

and money ig

[wicked sonnet]

the last 20 have been easy i've been averaging 2-3 per run

but now i expect it to go down to 1-2

and soon barely scrape a new one

[fringe nebula]

as long as you get gold sticker on popcorn, bean and seltzer early everything's fine

[wicked sonnet]

i think i've done those three already

[fringe nebula]

good

[wicked sonnet]

and i made it a point to get glass and stone joker done

so i have zero food jokers or conditional jokers left

i'm keeping a spreadsheet

i'm still missing rebate 😭

[ancient gyro]

I've yet to use a spreadsheet

don't really see the need

[lime lark]

(tf2 medic.wav) EVERYONE!! FREE MONEYY

[wicked sonnet]

once i got c+ i just downloaded one

so all i do is check the boxes

it was mostly so i know how many i have

[ancient gyro]

checking the stats page is good enough

I only look at it when I have around 10 or less left

[wicked sonnet]

nah stats count all stickers from white stake

so i was at like 75% after finishing c+ but i only had about 70 jokers done or something

[ancient gyro]

which I don't do

[wicked sonnet]

maybe less i can't remember

[ancient gyro]

at 95% I'll look at the joker list

[austere whale]

How do i have every achievement except for ts

[ancient gyro]

everything before I'll just play like normal

[wicked sonnet]

fair enough

i just like having a spreadsheet :3

[austere whale]

I would, except for aim to get stone joker

[ancient gyro]

tbf im 7 profiles in, the spreadsheet will be unnecessary at some point

[wicked sonnet]

this is my first haha

[lime lark]

THANK YOU it's been like eight months

[foggy berry]

did your second rocket have to take off by itself or was it already giving the amount ur first rocket reached ?

[lime lark]

it has to charge by itself, so it got swapped out in endless mode

[foggy berry]

i see

i wonder if it is copied by ankh / invis if it's a different case

probably retains the money in that scenario . .

[terse vale]

kinda is

[edgy stone]

How do u define big three? Top 3 best jokers?

[lime lark]

photochad...i'm filing for divorce

[echo sphinx]

only to realize u can just phototribosockchad

[lime lark]

I blew the run against the Window right after posting b/c black deck

[echo sphinx]

bro HOW DID YOU LOSE WITH SOCK TRIBOULET

rip

[lime lark]

hence why I was too embarassed to say anything. answer is shit draws and presumably shittier plays

i tried to uh. twopair with a queen, debuffed queen, jack, debuffed jack - having only the one 2x was bad

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[potent tree]

me too

[edgy stone]

Bloodstone in my heart

[wicked sonnet]

simple flush five run for 3 more stickers

rough gem, droll, and trio

could have maybe pushed for a fourth sticker but didn't want to risk a bad draw at the end

ripped ecto to take trio, could've replaced sharp and got another sticker but if i didn't pull the five and only drew the flush it would've been dicey

[ashen tide]

Grrr

[wicked sonnet]

time to end for tn, pulled another 14 stickers today

[edgy stone]

That build so synchronous

[wicked sonnet]

oh it was great

poly blueprint, poly droll, card sharp, trio, rough gem playing red seal kings of diamond

[red sparrow]

Choose sun

[rustic haven]

[wicked sonnet]

at this rate i'll have c++ done in two days! right??! right?!?!!?!!!! it's so easy ahsdahahhahahaha

[red sparrow]

Balayage

Balayage

Balatradle

[stark charm]

my first non perishable joker is showman😭

[rustic haven]

theres no way people actually play with this setting enabled

my eyes

[edgy stone]

What do u think the best suit for winning?

[stark charm]

spade or heart?

meet blood stone f*ckery

[cloud sinew]

Balatrodle ❗ ❗ in 4

[devout cove]

guys why dont i see anyone using the ancient joker? it seems so good for photochad

[red sparrow]

I got in 4 too

[cloud sinew]

good job

[glad aspen]

I hate orange stake more than gold stake

[edgy stone]

Might get high score but not optimal with flush build

[noble mango]

Didn't gold stake also add orange stake's debuffs

[rich mauve]

balaladle

[noble mango]

Cryptidle

[devout cove]

idk it seems very optimal for me as it gives 17x multiplier

and combine that with blueprint

[stark charm]

perishable is useless while eternal and rental has some use, i HATE perishable.

[noble mango]

Fair

Is there any modded joker that makes other scaling jokers go nuts

And die

[edgy stone]

Yeah but flush is not a strong hand for winning. And you need many wild card because suit change every round. Which could be debuffed easily in boss blind.

[glad aspen]

Yes, but atleast gold stake has rentals to balance the perishable and eternal

[glad aspen]

See you get it

[noble mango]

Eternal rental . . .
I hate it

But blueprint is too good to miss
😭

[devout cove]

its really ez to get the needed suit, also i keep winning every stake because of this combo of chad, photo, blueprint, ancient

[noble mango]

Photochad mentioned

[devout cove]

yeah

[cloud minnow]

Should I take this? Or not?

[devout cove]

im using ancient joker with photochad

[noble mango]

What joker is that

[red sparrow]

Flower pot

If hand contains every suit 3x mult

[noble mango]

我不知道

[royal shale]

it’s literally one of 2 reasons I can think of to run flush long-term

The other is checkered deck

[boreal haven]

hey guys

[noble mango]

seems not too good
Unless like 4oak or smth

[cloud minnow]

He can actually speak Chinese!

[royal shale]

it isn’t good :3

[red sparrow]

It’s mid

[noble mango]

only basic . . .

Like
I
Don't
Know

[edgy stone]

I think Ancient is not a good card for checkered deck

[boreal haven]

oh hey Jello

[noble mango]

heya

[royal shale]

never said they work together…

[boreal haven]

I wonder what's next after completing Mad World

[devout cove]

same bro! and blueprint works great too!

[noble mango]

You done the E G G ?

[boreal haven]

first challenge?

[noble mango]

The no interest/money gain +

[royal shale]

not a bro but ok :3

[devout cove]

sorry

[lime remnant]

chad gonna go

[royal shale]

ur all good

[noble mango]

So you done it in order or no

[boreal haven]

Omelette?
it took me some tries but I got lucky enough to get swashbuckler in ante 1/2

[boreal haven]

yeah I'm doing them in order

[noble mango]

Mythical joker pull

[royal shale]

I got so lucky in a bunch of my stuff

[boreal haven]

Ah crape...

[royal shale]

Geedle? First run Yorick

[boreal haven]

C O N S U M I S M

[noble mango]

Hold on was it the knife one or like the bus

[boreal haven]

luxury tax
basically the opposite of Rich get Richer

poor, get poorer

[noble mango]

Mone

Hey at least you start with 10 hand size

[red sparrow]

Luxury tax. Lose one card per hand per $5

[edgy stone]

Well if I get that combo, I think I could win, but 2 rare jokers is so rare.

[boreal haven]

seems that I have to spend money to get most of the cards....

[noble mango]

Bagavond would be so good

[boreal haven]

otherwise I'll get less... and that woudl be a risk

genius

that should do it

[noble mango]

If only you got it like swashbuckler on the egg

[boreal haven]

and since my hand is big, I might use jokers that can help me with straights

[noble mango]

Baron mime vagabond high cards . . .

Wild

[boreal haven]

hmmmm, I like the idea

aight, let's see how this goes

[noble mango]

Or shoot the moon t
The queen one

[proper jackal]

yo hi pumpkin man

[boreal haven]

c o n s u m i s m

oh hey astro

wait

ASTRO

[proper jackal]

[devout cove]

[proper jackal]

im busy deleting everything from 2025 don't mind me :>

[boreal haven]

Wait, weren't you already in this server?

oh

[proper jackal]

Nope I left

I had to get up from the couch and walk back to my PC to turn something off so I could send messages -- infinite rate limit loop

Or whatev

[noble mango]

huh

[stark charm]

easiest challenge in the game?

whitestake--?

[devout cove]

DUDE FIRST SHOP AND THERES BLUEPRINT

[boreal haven]

I see
btw you got so popular here that you're in most of balatro mods!
also a project called cold beans (the opposite of hot potato) where I participated is finally released!

[stark charm]

oh wait it is diffrenet one

[proper jackal]

I was here in 2025 but I left, I'm busy deleting everything before 2026 because I was really cringey like a year ago

[proper jackal]

Yes I know about cold bean

Wait I propagated more ???

[stark charm]

yeah that one kinda ass just find homeless man called vegabond

[proper jackal]

I've documented like 16 of them

[boreal haven]

but do you know what other mod is released?

[proper jackal]

Heyo #⚙・modding-general

:3

[woven remnant]

I am here to complain about checkered deck still

[boreal haven]

oh true
(btw my mod is also released, check it out if you want!)

[spark kernel]

Gay jimbo

[boreal haven]

anyways back to Luxury tax

[woven remnant]

yum

bull vagabond synergy 🔥 🔥 🔥

[boreal haven]

actually what if I could rely this challenge on full houses
are there some other jokers that benefit from them?

[woven remnant]

anything that pairs with pair hands mostly?

[cloud sinew]

this challenge is more about straights i think

[boreal haven]

I wish there were more other jokers for full houses, 3oaks and 4oaks

[long zodiac]

Hi polychrome photochad

[woven remnant]

I love splash

[long zodiac]

Aaaannnnd the next boss is the plant im screwed

[boreal haven]

I know this is a bad decision but I'd love to see how this would turn out

[long zodiac]

WAIT NO IM NOT

Glass 8 saves the day

[woven remnant]

I love troubadour

[boreal haven]

y'know what
Imma choose it for shits and giggles

[long zodiac]

You’re gonna get like a grabber voucher or smth

[woven remnant]

where is the fun in playing the optimal way

[boreal haven]

my hand is handing rn

Oh yeah baby

just what I needed

[woven remnant]

ooooh

[long zodiac]

You need the juggler for even more hand size

And burger just for giggles

[boreal haven]

burger

wait wtf

a new channel just appeared

#🕹・run-discussion

[long zodiac]

No announcement on it yet

[boreal haven]

I'm afraid that I might switch to that channel

not sure tho

uuuh, if any mod is seeing this I would like a (brief) explanation on the new channel!

(or at least explain that in the announcements)

[brave goblet]

Lucky

I'll never be able to make Eris overtake Ceres in my stats

[cloud sinew]

they already did explain it though

"We have added a new discussion channel for runs to help people get active help and advice on their current run."

[vestal copper]

so thats just the balance discussion now

[long zodiac]

PLEASE YORICK I NEED YOU

[boreal haven]

so I can still use this channel then?

[cloud sinew]

idk

[vestal copper]

well if they added an entirely new one just for the screenshots then maybe no

[boreal haven]

oh...

guess Imma use the new one then

[noble mango]

What

H

How

[long zodiac]

Hexed the banner, the ankh hit it, then I got a nat poly acrobat

[lime remnant]

goofy run

[noble mango]

oh ankh

Ic

[lime remnant]

where is midas when i need you

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[vestal copper]

wise

[white anvil]

Hey guys is getting 2 souls back to back runs

rare

And both being trib

[wind cairn]

Need bloodstone

For funny’s

[orchid comet]

sell order for boot?

[vestal copper]

no

[fringe nebula]

no

order is enough to beat ante 1

[vestal copper]

biggest bait ever

[viral raft]

Well the run is over i guess

[light oak]

idk what to do here

[fringe nebula]

here win

[viral raft]

Yeah

Is red stake so the run is already won

[vestal copper]

gg jumbo celestial pack

[fringe nebula]

2 photo 2 chad is better

[viral raft]

I'l just rush it

[light oak]

I just put em both on Chad for retriggers on lucky cards/ gold seal for cash

[fringe nebula]

fair

[manic vault]

lmao first time i thinned a deck so much theres no cards left in the deck

[light oak]

what are you planning on copying

[vestal copper]

1oak build

[manic vault]

negatives

one did appear but at the most inconvinient time tho

[worldly depot]

gee i wonder whats gonna happen this game

[devout cove]

guys any easy way to get onyx agate and rough gem?

[glad aspen]

Oh whatever

[fringe nebula]

tarot gens

[light brook]

the way i did it was dedicate runs to it

[fringe nebula]

like vagabond

[light brook]

pick up tarot for moon/star

and obv don’t play on checkered lol

[devout cove]

can you get it with checkered deck and that one smeared jocker?

oh

[light brook]

no i tested

[devout cove]

cuz i got the other 2 jokers with checkered

but thanks ill try!

[light brook]

yeah smeared don’t count it because technically they’re still hearts they just identify as diamond sometimes

[devout cove]

oooh

oh wait should i try magic deck to copy the tarots?

[light brook]

that’s not a bad idea actually

[fringe nebula]

magic deck mentioned

🗣️ 🔥

[ancient gyro]

magic/zodiac/erratic, pick one

[lament bronze]

Rahhh finally people will just

not

come here

[light brook]

cause what is it 30 suits

[lament bronze]

and go "Well but I want to do X this run"

[light brook]

you start with 13

[vestal copper]

magic is peak

[ancient gyro]

some call it a medical condition

[light brook]

+9 from moon/star and two fools is 22

so you just need to pick up 8 more

[orchid comet]

it has to be worth it

[thorn sage]

bloodstone time?

[orchid comet]

whatever gets rid of space joker

[edgy stone]

Man so many skip bind polychromes

[ancient gyro]

🙂‍↔️

[thorn sage]

i hate my life

[orchid comet]

LMFAO

[ashen tide]

It can't be that ba- wow it really didn't hit for the entire run since ante 2

[orchid comet]

worth it?

[ashen tide]

No way 😭😭😭

[orchid comet]

i do lose chances at cavendish though

[ancient gyro]

trousers scale slower, you lose your econ source, less room for other utility/scoring jokers

[orchid comet]

scale slower?

[ancient gyro]

as in you win too fast to use all your hands to scale

[fringe nebula]

you literally had nova and chip joker LMAO

[orchid comet]

oh true

[light oak]

the cat is calling to me like a green goblin mask and idk if I should take it

[orchid comet]

and since its purple that would definitely backfire

[edgy stone]

Each time upgrade level is better than pants upgrade

[cloud sinew]

i wouldnt get rid of space joker, dropping supernova or trousers would be better

base mult is pretty important for bloodstone

[modern canyon]

by any chance does anyone know what the stats are for a flush five level 6

[worthy tinsel]

Reason number 2 to not pick

[cloud sinew]

410x31

[orchid comet]

I dont grab rtb do I?

trousers is at 34

[cloud sinew]

rebate, no bus.

[ancient gyro]

u already have a mult scaler

[shell dagger]

only rebar AND paintbrush

[orchid comet]

banana got eaten

[ancient gyro]

rebar brush

[shell dagger]

erosion is also on the chopping block

[orchid comet]

unless I get like immolate or sm?

[cloud sinew]

i dont like erosion

[cloud sinew]

nah even then it's being dropped

[orchid comet]

its so cool with a short deck

[shell dagger]

a second +mult is not a good use of a joker slot (most of the time)

[orchid comet]

hmm okay

[shell dagger]

because it’s maximum a 2x

[cloud sinew]

-5 is still only +20, which trousers is better than right now

[worthy tinsel]

What was the mult of erosion again
I didnt find a erosion in a long time

[orchid comet]

+4 mult per card below 52 in full deck

[worthy tinsel]

Right

[ancient gyro]

erosion has a limited amount of tools to get working, while requiring a permanent upkeep from slimming your deck

[cloud sinew]

if erosion was like hologram but for removal i would like it a lot more

but no :(

[orchid comet]

$28 arcana I open it right

i have faceless and rebate who am i kidding

[fringe nebula]

i don't like how i'm sacrificing +4 mult by adding blue seal

[ancient gyro]

a proactive erosion 🤔

[cloud sinew]

with rebate and faceless you can afford to drop ~$10 below interest cap very comfortably, so yes

[fringe nebula]

yeah

[viral raft]

Rebate, you already have 2 +mult

Search for planets or xmult

[ancient gyro]

effectively 1

[viral raft]

Idk

[bronze widget]

i had to sell polychrome raised fast cause i am trying to unlock invis but still fire setup

[ancient gyro]

yk you're required to only have a max of 4 at all times right

[fringe nebula]

^

[worthy tinsel]

Yeah just play painted

[cloud sinew]

if you had more than 4 at any point in the run

[cloud sinew]

if you take negatives / get antimatter it's still relevant

[worthy tinsel]

Just dont take them

[cloud sinew]

which is important to say

[bronze widget]

yeah i sold before getting

[boreal haven]

Man, this challenge was so easy but extremely fun ngl
flushes are boring

[bronze widget]

so doesnt that count

is this optimal jokering

i hope i had 4 i tried to do that all game i think i havent messed up yet

[cloud sinew]

youre safe then. as long as you never have more than 4 jokers, youre good

[ancient gyro]

I would've just kept fist but ok

nvm

[bronze widget]

i have lvl 25 high card

not rlly that needed

[fringe nebula]

3 mime is better because you'll have more money

[bronze widget]

ah true oops

[fringe nebula]

and it's still ante 7

[cloud sinew]

you can just switch to mimes for golds at the end

[ancient gyro]

sry, gs pilled

[bronze widget]

i am new ill get to that later 💔

[ancient gyro]

yeah

dw about it

[boreal haven]

aight, let's see what's the next challenge...

[visual niche]

i beat the orange stake, now there's only the worse one left on the black deck and i'll be done with it for sure

[onyx storm]

I just hit naneinf

[visual niche]

but hey, more slots means more gold stickers

[boreal haven]

oh..... no.......

[onyx storm]

it took me so long when going for c+

[cloud sinew]

its honestly fine

[cloud minnow]

Which one is better?

[cloud sinew]

one of the easier challenges

[fringe nebula]

get some strong early jokers

[cloud sinew]

right one

[onyx storm]

I won black deck gold with 4 eternal stensil jokers

[onyx storm]

most the challenges arent too hard

[cloud minnow]

Which one is better?

[visual niche]

lmfao

[onyx storm]

after like a day of trying

idk why I did it as my 4th deck

one of the least enjoyable
