ONG SAME!!!!!!
Can play flush fives easily with minor deck fix
4oak build in gold stake is wild
gg
not that wild with vagabond
yeah
vagabond is an enabler for literally any build
nice
embrace banana. embracing pairslop.
jokerless fucking sucked never again
I am so scared of running out of discards
whats the point of the chad
vagabond is just such a strong tarot gen
glass
okay yea rn my issue is chips
why do you need so many discards
lol
the potential joker
you have one glass card vro
bro get johnny storm out of here 😭
that one glass card literally helped me to oneshot violet vessel wdym
lol
besides, i had business card before and 2 gold seal
u have polychrome lucky card
Za warudo
I rlly don't cuz I am playing 10 4oaks and have seven 10s
fighting
chad is there to simply help with the econ because i took that rental red card at ante 2
you can only play 1 4oak??
oh
is what i meant to ss
I just need to play one I have like 8 levels on it
Plus this is white stake and my first black deck run
I thought maybe I should maximize my discard game cuz of low hands
really no odd todd?
cuz i skipped 3 blinds
unfortunately no
why
the rental has caused serious damage, but hanging chad, business card and gold seals helped me to stay afloat
try not to skip
i thought odd todd better than even steven
ye
yea so why not replace even steven with odd todd
It is but Steven can be rlly good too
forgot lowk
Not bad
im guessing that he already went tot he next round
thats why i said i lowk could just take both
nowp kill even in this scenario
and scale const more bro
im trying
im broke
yall fuckers somehow be getting like
$400 ante 2
im over here
ante 6 with under 20
gah damn
save money
also game doesnt wanna give me planet packs
white or gold stake
basically just only buy one joker and nothing else on ante 1
its white 💔
bro decrease level :((( my pairs
what i do is get a joker that can keep me alive up to ante 3 and maintain over 25$ unless i get seed money
were straights ever the meta bc i saw a balatrouni video where he ranked saturn in s tier and mercury in f tier
is buying credit card to buy scoring jonklers and grabber in ante 1 valid
video was from like a year ago
saturn is one of the best planets its still very good
that is old BU
modern BU is completely different
yea now hes just advertising pairslop a
but saturn has one of the best scaling
and the best scaling for a deck without fixing
your econ will be horrendous for the entire next ante rendering you unable to buy anything
straights would be meta if pairs didn't exist tbf
Worth this or hangman better?
and hc too probably actually
straights are kinda hard to get without shortcut
what to drop for ramen?>
not really
throwback
1.75x tho :(
dont underestimate rocket
honestly not really, just go for the center ranks and its actually pretty consistent while being fully unfixed
ramen is x2
ramen will eventually get worse
ante 6 brodie
ur playing pairslop ur not gonna discard
Just don't discard?
tru
i have to do something to get legendary jokers? i have a new acc and i dont get anything
const will catch up anyways
tru
tru
its just luck
i never discard with ramen except with an emergency
takes a lot of luck
just like how i never play gold cards or steel cards unless its an emergency
same with blueseals
Not worth
ramen is worth discarding if you have anything valuable in deck
i even discard with grimbo if its for purple
0.1x not worth it for purple?
0.01*
forever unsatisfied by the xmult being 1.99x
bro playing with any of those (blueseals, gold, steel) is like -1 handsize
I mean, I guess sometimes, but it'll add up quick
is the biggest downside
womp womp
NIGHTMARENIGHTMARENIGHTMARENIGHTMARE
one of those ppl that needs to have their TV or PC volume end on a factor of 5 or 10
isnt ramen will eventually gets replaced
lol
like a single enhanced card is worth way more than the .01 lost
what tarot did u even get
LMFAO
That never gets past 50%
or at worst a dollar
My speakers are way too powerful for some reason
i should try a straights build
i keep my pc at a high 20s or low 30
i keep my pc volume off
what took you so long
scales twice as fast as square 🔥
me when the pairslop
I hate straight
majority of the time i thought it was for straights but only recently (like last week) found out its potential in pairs
how many is swash
i take over swash?
burnt joker is my goat
only 10, its ass
ive kept it for the foil
xd
but i have odd todd now so
wee joker my favorite by far
run pairslop with it then
I keep forgetting you're a relatively new player
how tf does that work
yeah runner is a pair joker
😭 somewhat
doesn't it only stack when played straights
play some straight now and then and then pivot
blue seal > burnt
me when i use burnt joker for a 5 card hand
burn in the fire of burnt joker
scales with straights
scores with any hand
naybe.....kill odd
only use burnt joker for high card
its why i dont like it, im still a flush player at heart
and runner scales really fast per hand
really?
second fastest chip scaler?
i like wee joker better
so use it on checkered deck
not scale prolem, play straight anti eco so hard.
play center straights
well im still using banana but it could break
dont play things like ace high straights
so yea id need to keep mult just in case
We burn, we always burn
if you go for center straights its a lot easier
holy shit
how many invis jokers bro
maybe castle scales the same as runner
salem witch trials build
maybe
ankh
All ankhs
and hex
wee joker better
If I have some econ joker like rebate or faceless, playing straight is so bad
roughly id say so yeah, but i feel like runner fits in a little more archetypes tbh
i got 200 on wee without chad or hack
obviously but you dont see wee often
speaking of blue seals
yea but when i do i know i basically won the run
beggars can't be choosers
(i usually fail the run)
wee is obviously the best scaler only downside is the rarity
that's pretty normal for all chip scalers
Mr. Bones just hanging out ig
and technically having the most specific condition requirement
base chips and mult are halved urghhh... if only i had 9 hands to play... wait a minute.
tried runner once in plasma and i loved it
So I'm dumb and trying to figure out how shop seeds work... when I'm looking at at the analyzer and I scroll through the 50 cards to the right or whatever it is and then it ends, what happens if you roll all the way through all the cards that are listed in that row in the analyzer?
got him to 500
mult^ joker when
never
400 wee with 5 twos ❤️🩹
retriggerable xmult is basically your ^mult
i used the stupidest combo is plasma deck
I never realised 5OAK was this bad. You just get 5 more chips?
you dont even gave to fix with twos for wee to get like 200 chips on average
2 xmult jokers in any sequence already do that :)
well the planet is not that great but you get to play 1 more card allowing for retriggerables
this is why i try only playing flush five and avoid adding this planet to the planet pool
Econ legendary when
perkeo 🤔
Like, straight money
1$ for every hand played
perkeo
This is my hand right now, I'm going to leave the game for a while to do some things, any opinions?
Mid
it scales
perkeo hermit is straight 20 dollars a round
Ah
BRO PAIRSLOP IS SO CRINGE GOD DAMN
no it scales based on ur total hand count
any opinons?
pairslop !!
8$ an ante
75k OFF 7 HANDS OF PAIRSLOP 
the club 🤑
can one of you mlg balatro players give me insight on what happens after you roll through the whole shop that's listed in the seed analyzer?
Doesn't sound that great. Mars/4OAK can be abused with blue seals way better cuz you just need 4 cards to score.
Can be really good
Ye I love flush five
yeah not a big fan of 5oak
i only play it when i need it
5oak is a waste of space in a planet pack
this guy only active by debuffed effect?
5oak might be one of the worst hands in the game
im broke irl and in a poker roguelike gg man, filing for bankrupcy 
also the flush 5 planet looks cool!
get blackboard...
no
no no dont...
5oak exist for wee specific purposes
you get more money
0 dollars
by not skipping
I HAVE NOTHING SWISS
he has 0 dollar
0
oh
ANTE 8
oh my run is cooked
maybeeee skip 1 and try to win big blind
arent you running pairslop
PRAY BANANA STAYS SO I CAN SAC NANA
yes
why
if i sell bj and acro will i be able to survive? big blind upcoming and pair at level 6
i dont think you need to sac
he barely scoring
lol
10-15k on pairs
oof....
white stake is so forgiving tf
game doesnt wanna give me planet packs
pretty low but i guess it can win a regular white stake
LMFAO
almost like its the first stake in the game
i have 9 hands
burglar and its white stake
Chat how do i set up obelisk because i can't get high xmult with it before it resets
handmaxing
you could play straight flush, it's already high score
play a lot of pairs and then pivot
omg bro you get money tree and you proceed to use all of your money
im crine
with no discards? yea if i get that i should go sign up for power ball
blud
at least get the base interest 😭🙏
i have a single red seal king should i risk it or do i come back on white stake
you could be scoring 100k per hand but no you used all of your mones
😭 im crine im so fucking broke
i think i come back on white stake
best food card has to be popcorn
money is scoring
im taking the fucking tag fuck you both
trib is going
?
from thus id probably have the ramen
yep
where is cavendish
NO DISCARDS I HATE RNG I HATE THIS GAME
ace is money
rubics cube ahhhh
you can never have too many money
and another $20 stuntman, took the wrath that i shouldn't have, and that's the second time in a row i get stuntman in this situation. sell or carry on?
im scoring 200k do i even need hologram
I hate Bloodstone
😭
ante? joker?
good answer niece
Please tell me that someone has thought of this, I think it can be better than investment sometimes (in yellow deck)
I forgot to screenshot it but I noticed that Merry getting unsealed actually gave me 3 more discards
WAIT
I LOWKEY WANNA -1 ANTE
prolly too late for holi
skipped it
possible
crimson bean moment
stunt is good
I NEED SPLASH
why
Andy Merry naneinf when?
will give it a try
why
lol i keep gambling over 100 dollars into wraith hoping i get a bp or bs
stunt is VERY good at that ante
WAIT THEY DO?
yes
BRO WHAT
it's technically already possible without the bug
IM LEARNING THINGS I NEVER KNEW BECAUSE IM A FUCKING FLUSH PLAYER
free win
how else would you score them
😭😭
or fibonacci
late madness pivot 💯
The serpent?
Please change, it's for your own good
idk bro i dont use stone im a flush player
trust banana
fib is really strong in abandoned
truly,m i will
fib
and some perkeo setup time
what
I hate bloodstone
none of your scoring jokers comes from cards
just play pairslop normally
yea
ur using all scoring jokers
taking fib
cuz fib broken
debuff mean it cant score
debuffed cards means the card cannot score
but your jokers are the ones giving score so
your scoring comes from jonkler not from cards
well yeah, just the cards don't score
the entire like aspect of this game has been broken for me because of pairslop
you learn new thing everyday
jesus fuck i feel like such a loser for ever doing flushslop
Yes but it's pretty rare cuz the good thing about Investment is that it's a early ante friendly skip while for Economy you'll need like 20$ to get more than Investment (although Economy immediately gives you money which is a plus)
slopslop
using handslop
we js making up shir now 💔
ive learned more in this pairslop run than my 50 hours of flushslop
flush5 isnt slop and straights arent slop
straightslop
strushslop
orgarnicslop
you never learn with flushes tbh
this game gen hates me btw
ai slop
uh oh
play a high card vro
shut up you dont know me
your hc is like 15k anyways
With economy tag after the big blind you have 14 dollars to spend, which it's just 4 dollars less than investment but with the plus of having maxed out interest
OMG flushslop is a beginner trap. I was playing alot of flush on my first save file
tru
YEAH BRO I CAN TELL
okay so
I started off the day with Green stake on nebula, and i've already reached the gold stake
we js making up shir now 💔slop
IM LIKE "hm this is a lot easier than i feel like it should be"
pretty good progress in less than a day
like igb
this shit is so free 😭
insert that one guy pic
pairslop always wins white stake
i think im playing on a older version
what does igb mean
13 stickers today wow
igbslop
i guess bro
😭
Ye that's a good point. I'll try taking more econ tags
omg like igb
We're slopslop now
except if u get violet vessel
pairslop always wins
HOLO OVER BANANA?
is this w 4oakslop
I hate Baron
white stake violet is nothing bro
did u win
might be too late
im still on 8
We all hate baron
-1 ante so i just got back to 8
im sorry guys i had to sticker it eventually
Worst joker idea ever just dropped
now find planets
From the Reddit
you need to scale const now
reddit users are smth else
What the fuck is that
fifthy whole chips or simple safe square
FUCK
the audacity to make it a rare
????????????????????

yep
so no holo?
square
too late
crying
gamble on the marble and the holo
i want tarot mult card
true gambler
lowk
Square cuz stone will bloat your Abandoned Deck and you can easily play Fib ranks
breh
foil campfire xd
HHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH
ok actually take the campfire
REALLY?
HERE, WIN
if u look at the comments of that reddit post u can see that the card nerfs ur score if ur not in endless
can i see your jokers again
the card nefs the score period
They should be a ship
1 mult is b a d
2.5x cons 1.99x ramen
i didnt even know what terminal meant before reading that
how has the banana not died yet
gros death
embrace banana.
square half joker actually works pretty well
kill swash, grab camp, get tarot merchant voucher and save money
this is what a believer in banana does
sell empress? ngl
yeah
watch the banana die after 8 antes and ur cavendish die after one round
yur
its bad in general
I just played a black deck run with it and it still got 200+ chips (although this is white stake)
i was gonna say what swiss was gonna say
1 PAIR OF BONUS 4'S 25k EZPZ YAWN
Smiley is mid. It's only rlly good with photograph or trib
i mean its a great scaler in general really pairslop
it's ok early game for 2 pairs
btw only queen i have and no death in any tarot packs it showed up in 😭
Ye early ante it's fine
we dont care about those glasses we care about selling your entire house for camp value
safe. embrace banana
im gonna leave this here and take the strength
😭
lmao
ok now its time to buy everything and sell everything
yeah soul is bad dont use it
no the math function
hold r
lol
math isn't real
endless isnt real
Is it true that ride the bus is a reference to Nikolai Chernyshevsky's Что делать?
do you accept throwback use if its for c++
what is that
only slightly
I think it's just a ref to public busses
i promise i wont use it again 😣
Public as in commoner ranks
roll everything buy everything sell everything
could get .75x
Its a book
Ohh okay, I was kind of going back and forth
Etertal debt
lowk if i sell banana it would outscale yea?
its based off of a bus sign LocalThunk lives near in Canada
Town's something starting with S
vagabond in two rerolls trust
esp buying splash and buffoon
meh dont sell your jonklers
i think is how that would be played
Oh could you elaborate? I wanna know what made you think that the book is being referenced
its ante 8 almost at big blind
why wouldnt i
no just reroll and sell tarot cards
2.25x mult outscales 15 base
who put lsd in ice cream
Ye it's probably this. Dusk is also just a scenery Thunk saw on a trip
you have tarot merchant
but i have +0.75x for $7 right here
why not take that 15 mult and give it 2x
on last ante
im doing math hang on
keep money then after big blind sell everything buy everything
theres no way is this was an unseeded run
not jokers thit
okay sorry ur right
okay thanks
best jokers for straight builds?
itd stay at 6 mult and just be worse than the 15 base
should i just look for xmult?
It's okay for early antes tho
Alright
Shortcut
Order
buh did you used all of your money again
at least keep some for interest
yes but i have x2 camp x2 ramen x2.6 cons
218 mult
either way you gonna win anyways so
Runner, shortcut, (four fingers (it's worse than shortcut but it can be nice with smeared joker if you want to play straight flush)
and i should get rid of aces, kings, and 2-3s?
but you still wanna learn money management
Also spam Saturns
im losing this run
lol
i have it, just not this late
lmfao
because with that spending you won't get far
okay thanks
htr ig
htr always appear when you have 0 javks
Bro took the bait
haha
best thing in the booster pack
sell it for 3 bucks 🔥
@lime remnant yeahhh boy 
Was that Mr Beast crypto?
Runner is not that usefull with straight runs unless you have bad rng with celestial packs/blue seals and you dont know how to block planets
easy win
MY BANANAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Ye
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
you have burglar youll win trust
it's no longer necessary because of ceremonial dagger channel i think
Ye I just added Runner without thinking that deep
but i got an extra .5 on camp
Kinda weird how runner is more favorable for non straight hands
the honeypot increased
because those hand needs chip 
Besides the order ig you can put seeing double and flowerpot
ironic
But
does this even matter
it probably wasnt intended tbf
no
wait
Straight has limited x mult right
i might lose
Maybe that happened after the saturn buff
my base mult is fucking trash
Idr how many chips it was before
i have the game on switch should i also buy it on steam or is it not worth it ?
Oh thank God I didn't play before
is ectoplasm bad with a straight build?
I CANT GET 50k IN 4 WITH JUST 6 BASE MULT 😭
or not related
IF I DIDNT DO -1 ANTE
Good
Old gold was misery
generally yes
Yes cuz it reduces hand size which is a big enabler for straights.
Ye
lowkey just hc ts?
If you find anything that increases yor handsize grab it
Also straights don't even have that many jokers for you to make use of Ecto
Maybe the only exception can be merry andy
and painted
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EZPZ @lime remnant
Yes Andy is awesome
i would still work on the money
if u play pairslop repeatedly it gets boring
no that was fun
i said repeatedly
real
Well, that's...
okay back to flushslop checkered white stake time
tlike over multiple runs
it's slightly worse with andy
I genuinely thought I was having a good run until the plant showed up
he's going back to the dark side....
im not i dont like baron
omg buffoon pack refund
pairslop enables the most amount of jokers so it's fun in that accord
If you take baron I will end you
literally impossible
Most fun hand is definitely flush five lucky cards
I JUST SAID I DONT LIKE BARON
i just enjoy runs that require more fixing and skill to perform, i feel better about my wins in contrary to pairslop
aka gs
what should i try to look for rn
Beautiful run until ante 7 plant
and this guy isnt running baron?
i lost my run to the plant one time bc i forgor to reroll
im pretty sure if you saved a single glass card you couldve gone won the plant
maybe
guys how do yall win under 24 rounds to unlock jokers?
Holy deck
ALL EIGHTS
throwback usually
always carry justice when doing photochad
0 8ball hit
oops! all eights!
oh skipping doesnt count for a round?
2
I had a glass 10 but it never showed up :(
l o l
full skipping after 2 antes in plasma
ouwh
thanks
im playing checkered
Nah is flush five red seal poly glass and praying to rngesus they dont destroy bc you still didnt found a dna
thats how i got my entire joker deck editioned
peak ball
l o l
okay wait but trio and driver could have crazy setup here
blue stake is already won lol
Thats just a x9
way better than having smeared at all
I have not played that so I can't be the judge
driver regardless lol cuz checkered doesn't need smearing
im gonna smear banana on your face
Pretty common at endless idol runs
okay thanks
but rtb
free win
rtbbbb
game saw me play pairslop once and now that i play for trio its cooked 😭
Just find xmult now
hmm manacle
they need to NOT make this obvious
not purple, i can bruteforce it
heck even in purple its bruteforcable
Ah right
Purple,blue and red have some big difficulty spikea
Not worth tbh
But is white so hf
i didnt take it, i wanna play for this trio drivers set up tbh
EGG YIPEEE
blue isn't a difficulty spike more than it is a restrictive spike
Same thing no? Cuz the restriction is making it more difficult?
purple and blue most notable tbh
I wish the egg joker was real
blue seal
what are you retriggering
restricting is limiting build variety in the sense that the game doesn't get harder when pairs are already default up to that point for how many jokers already work for it
set up swiss set up!!
setting up with unlimited planets is better than retigering a king
blue is significantly stronger here
purple effectively increases the difficulty as it slowly and directly buffs boss blind interactions
Well now thats a way to get mult and chips from venus
Ye but I personally would count it as more difficult cuz before blue stake every hand is viable to an extent
blue is still a difficulty spike as you are learning the game though
Red stake black deck is so ass
blue stops the flush and straight hands pretty bad
you aren't optimally using all your discards at that point anyways so it hurts
i think blue stake is a bad nerf
Ye this too
How do I install balatro?
cold take
it should be something else since honestly it just limits the hands to play
insert my blue stake rework quote here
blue stake: playing pairs sets money to zero
wonder what thunk have in mind for blue stake rework
maybe a new sticker..
not really gonna work, too many jokers works well with pairs rn
I GOT SWASH WITH EGG YESSSSSSS
most pair jokers also have perishable immunity
sure. not like the run is losing anytime soon
and to some extent boss immunity
see thats the thing i dont necessarily agree with
It beate everything except The Eye but even then, it's not like 5 card hands always one shot The Eye
pairs get hit pretty hard by some bosses that wouldnt normally happen with higher-scoring hands
like
but i understand
letsgo
things like needle are less of a problem for someone running straights for example
needle is hell for straights
wdym
havent found any problems with it when ive ran straights
I think we should get more seals/enhancements for 5 card hands. That sounds like the way to do it
i just oneshot the round
you need to find a straight in 2 discards
swiss i need opinion
which doesn't always happen
good run??
and also was what killed drspectreds first win streak attempt
5 card hand players also rely on doing "waste" hands
true, but at least you arent fully locked from winning because you physically cannot score enough in one hand
not if you have a layer of fixing
and the one that you can only play 1 type of hand
that's not a pair issue
though
ways to improve my straight build? on black chip difficulty?
or is it just kind of over
alright what about the boss that doesnt allow repeat hands
i have one blue seal so on the off chance i get blue seal in my hand for mime is p low but would be strong, but also idk what id even get rid of
drivers?
ante 5 and im only 2/16 on drivers
mime
Ok first of all, bootstrap in general is very mid but if you have no money it's mega mid
im pretty sure the 3oak chips joker isnt doing as much when you have planets
mm fair
that makes sense
ok ty
you helped me with pairslop so i believe you
thanks balatro....
DEATH WITH BLUE SEAL
YES
and i rolled my blue seal first hand
yea this is 3oated
get it
cuz
okay
sorry
omg...
i just lost
I LOST
what's the point of Checkered deck? like the only reason that i find is play Straight FLush
just had a run where i got a brainstorm from a judgment and a red seal king in a standard pack it went awesome
BECAUSE THIS DOOKIE ASS GAME GAVE ME PAIRS
ts seems like some battle cats thing
AND NOT A SINGLE EXTRA
LIKE DAWGGGGG
im gonna cry
this was such a good seed
😭
egg with swash, mime with blue seal and chance for 2 3xmult cards
kms truly
i hope i win... please
I DID YEEEE
surely
wow math
yikes
idk math



nah
holographic rtb round one big leages are calling
for
copers

It's a poker reference
for people that wanna 100%
this can be good
yes ik i play poker but like
why that one
😭
fuck this im going back to flush
embrace flush embrace banana embrace glass
ngl I'm going to get killed for this but I like black deck
Ah yes
Straight flush time
okay if i took 4 fingers though....
like x2 flush is nice
but that synergy'
rah
might restart seed after im ngl
GOD???????
sell certificate and cavendish?
lmao why??
ur build is fine as is
u only need some flat mult
do i sell certificate now?
I mean strushes works there
So 4fingers is nice there shorcut better still
honestly the first three could work (flush five or four of a kind of spades)
i think wrath since you can get retriggers
ye i took wrath
im def redoing this seed with 4 fingers and whatever this joker is called
thats my homie runner
speaking of retrigger?
i think in the long run you would need either arrowhead or bloodstone
or find some way to use the stronger flushes to advantage
keep in mind you could still get the boss blinds that debuff hearts or spades so be careful
ye
should i jus grab hack for now
tbh
wait
whats the joker that lvls up the discarded hand
that one is good for checkered
Burnt
Is a rare tho
