[harsh relic]

[runic lily]

Bwananananan~

[cloud sinew]

buffoon

[pallid galleon]

muhneeee

[mental bloom]

alrightyyyy

nooo banana is safer i think

[finite heron]

Take the sock and fr

[slow iris]

violent vessel on gold stake plasma deck

[mental bloom]

i just hope it lasts

even tho its perishable

[cloud sinew]

what is banana gonna do for you

[mental bloom]

neh

[finite heron]

6 chips

[mental bloom]

help me survive

[cloud sinew]

it's +15 twin 😭

[hoary knot]

Pure manifestation of doom and chaos

[mental bloom]

and get a chance at finding cav

[cloud sinew]

that is not a lot

[finite heron]

That's around 1 more card

[runic lily]

Wait question which gives more mult, bluprint the photochad or hangingchad

[finite heron]

Half a runner

[mental bloom]

yeah I took

banana

[cloud sinew]

copying photo

[pallid galleon]

chat do i take it

[slow iris]

i would go next round 'cause plasma

[mental bloom]

grrrr!!

[finite heron]

Photochad or hanging Chad is wild

[hoary knot]

What's mult would hanging chad give

[mental bloom]

are we deadass

[hoary knot]

Considering you have no other jokers

[mental bloom]

bro broke round 1

[runic lily]

No i forgot to mention when you have them both

[finite heron]

No it's photograph

[hoary knot]

Both def

[finite heron]

Not chad

That's the combo

[hoary knot]

Photochad

[humble gulch]

You need 1,266 total mult or chips to win and and for violet vessel you need 2,968...

[mental bloom]

easy trust

[runic lily]

Sorry i forgot to mention when you have them both which should i bluprint to get more mult

[cloud sinew]

that's in one hand

also that's not right

[mental bloom]

GODDAMN

HAHAH

[finite heron]

Photograph always gives more if it's mono blueprint

[humble gulch]

I mean, yeah, but it adds up

[finite heron]

Use a desmos calculator if you're unsure 💯

[runic lily]

Fair enough lol

[mental bloom]

we ye we are picking cavendish

[humble gulch]

Only the first one is wrong tho

That's 400,000

[mental bloom]

manacle will be fine

[cloud sinew]

you need 3099 total mult/chips to beat vessel in 1 hand, and 1789 to beat every other showdown blind in 1 hand

[mental bloom]

easy

as of right now its going pretty well

[finite heron]

Rare full house player

[cloud sinew]

x3 doing very little for you rn

[hoary knot]

I'm pretty sure blueprinting hanging chad would give you more mult since it'd retrigger the card 4 times

[cloud sinew]

it would not be better

[humble gulch]

Yeah, I kinda didn't see that I calculated 2.2 mill instead 2.4 mill

[hoary knot]

Really?

[cloud sinew]

photo gives 2^3, chad gives 2^2

[finite heron]

Pull out the desmos calculator

[mental bloom]

😧...

[hoary knot]

Ah

[mental bloom]

help

[finite heron]

Graph this

[cloud sinew]

deserved

[humble gulch]

What

[mental bloom]

SHUSH THATS MEAN

idiot

stop being mean

[finite heron]

How???

Did it break

[mental bloom]

IDKKKK

[humble gulch]

That's rarer than a legendary btw

[mental bloom]

FR

[finite heron]

How did you hit

[shell dagger]

X3 mult really doing a lot in ante 2

[slow iris]

it's a sign

[hoary knot]

Are we doing Jokerless plasma 😭

[cloud sinew]

exactly lol

[finite heron]

1 in 16 and 1 in 1000 back to back

💀

[mental bloom]

WHAAAAAT

[cloud sinew]

[mental bloom]

WHAAAAAAAT

[humble gulch]

Free win

[shell dagger]

Hey now you got a better one

[slow iris]

true

[finite heron]

I forgot what the percentage is for gros

[slow iris]

foiled again

[mental bloom]

Crazy timing wtfff

[cloud sinew]

it's 1 in 6

[mental bloom]

yeah trust

[finite heron]

I don't remember that being so low

[cloud sinew]

it has been that way for at least 2 years now

so idk what to tell you

[hoary knot]

The humble wall:

[mental bloom]

ok i took smiley face too

[humble gulch]

If it breaks too that's near to 1 in 1,000,000

[finite heron]

I might be slightly forgetful

[humble gulch]

Why...

[shell dagger]

Taking smiley was a decision

[mental bloom]

it better NOT

[mental bloom]

he's so happy

[finite heron]

I keep getting it lasting for like 30 rounds so I feel so forgetfup

[hoary knot]

Comedic timing if the plant shows up

[cloud sinew]

why did you take smiley

[finite heron]

I have a gold sticker on it

[willow frost]

never punished

[runic lily]

Okay one more idea i had, i was originally gonna make it set to 1 hand

[mental bloom]

hmph

[humble gulch]

They're going to eat you alive

[finite heron]

This kills you if you use riff raff

[cloud sinew]

you can't just post your runs here and expect not to get critiqued lol

[mental bloom]

easy

[mental bloom]

then I'll just start a new one and make better decisions

[humble gulch]

I'm there

[runic lily]

XD

[humble gulch]

What a handsome guy

Who is it

[mental bloom]

Yeah thanks

🥹

[willow frost]

[cloud sinew]

[finite heron]

Permanent smile face on plasma???

[hoary knot]

Reverse burglar

[mental bloom]

[finite heron]

Devils work

[mental bloom]

BAD NEWS

[hoary knot]

[shell dagger]

Yea ur selling them

[mental bloom]

ok

[finite heron]

Veo

[shell dagger]

Drop the seed

[willow frost]

nah you sold that shit lmao

[runic lily]

Exactly, dont know if its a good joker or has a niche

[finite heron]

1 in 1000 back to back

[willow frost]

[mental bloom]

im not

hold on ill lose

[willow frost]

[finite heron]

Same amount of dollars

[shell dagger]

[finite heron]

No

There is 2

[humble gulch]

Rarer than a nat negative legendary btw

[willow frost]

oh shit

[finite heron]

Stroll up

Vro broke 2

[hoary knot]

What would happen if it's blueprinted

[finite heron]

Calvendishes

[willow frost]

oh my fucking god

[finite heron]

Not 1

[mental bloom]

Seed : SQVH6CZ8

[shell dagger]

10 negative oops hidden

[finite heron]

This all happens back to bsck

[runic lily]

+6 discards

[mental bloom]

I'm shocked

[shell dagger]

SQVH6CZ8

[mental bloom]

No more Balatro for today

[finite heron]

1 in 6 1 in 1000 1 in 1000

That's like

[willow frost]

that might be the fastest double cavendish break in any balatro seed ever

[mental bloom]

FR

[finite heron]

That's rarer than 1 in a million

[mental bloom]

true

[finite heron]

I think

[runic lily]

We have witnessed history

[willow frost]

we need to speedrun this

[finite heron]

Schrodinger's history

[mental bloom]

yea I'll probably stop playing for like 1 or 2 years just to recover

[finite heron]

Does it exist if we haven't observed

[shell dagger]

That’s so funny

[willow frost]

go to vegas or something jesus

[mental bloom]

FR

[finite heron]

The dealer hates this one trick

[shell dagger]

If u post that on reddit you’ll get a bazillion upvotes btw

[runic lily]

Wait is this good luck or bad luck?

[brave goblet]

Pairslop pairslop

[mental bloom]

also yeah that bad decision was fine since I'm not continuing the run anyways

[lime remnant]

pairslop with a hint of sock

[humble gulch]

So...

[lime remnant]

and 4oak for some reason

[brave goblet]

Random pickup, I couldn't even find my glass cards

[mental bloom]

there

[hoary knot]

Green Jokers worst nightmare

[vivid stump]

i found this gem

[finite heron]

4 oak makes 4 crafting tables

[mental bloom]

am shocked

[slow iris]

punishment for taking gros michel on plasma

[mental bloom]

grrrr stopppppppppp

[humble gulch]

Divine punishment, this is not normal

❤️‍🩹

[mental bloom]

see i wasn't selling them

[shell dagger]

It’s funny bc this wouldn’t have happened in a BU vid

[hoary knot]

That seed really hates Cavendish

[finite heron]

Game hates you in particular

[finite heron]

Or bananas in general

[humble gulch]

Bro literally died three times in a row

[mental bloom]

fr

[hoary knot]

Dunno what would happen to Michael 😰

[mental bloom]

yo u wanna see the cavendish break?

[knotty topaz]

debit card was not in buffoon pack

[finite heron]

Would you rather bet on misprint of gros

Why is everyone on plasma

[hoary knot]

I can feel the pain

[cloud sinew]

probably because no such joker exists

[knotty topaz]

wait i thought it was debit not credit card

idk

i forget

no yea its credit

fml lol

[finite heron]

Vro if it was a debit card then you can't go negative

[warm vector]

Im finnaly gonna beat orange stake on black deck

[humble gulch]

Instead of coming back in three days it died three times in a day

[finite heron]

Borrowing money from yourself is wild

[warm vector]

I might bottle it still though

[knotty topaz]

😭

[hoary knot]

Infinite money glitch

[finite heron]

Infinite untill it's finite

[mental bloom]

ugh

yea no more balatro

[hoary knot]

More balatro

[mental bloom]

tho not picking Gros Michel would've never made this happen

[hoary knot]

I love playing balalalatro

[humble gulch]

I'd uninstall the game after that ❤️‍🩹

[mental bloom]

So "bad decisions" ? Idc

[runic lily]

I just have an idea for a secret joker unlock

Its called split-joker 2
Gimmik is "+50 chips, 0 in 3 chance to unlock split-joker 3"

And then you use oa6s to try and activate it

Then ya unlock split-joker 3 and its ablity is "+100 chips and +50mult, then balance the chips and mult"

[shell dagger]

Cavendish also appears soon in ante 6

[finite heron]

An alright amount of balatro

[shell dagger]

In that seed

[limpid crater]

does the blank voucher do anything?? ive bought it 16 times

[mental bloom]

how long does it last

[cloud sinew]

not on its own

[ancient gyro]

are we seed posting

[slow iris]

unlocks antimatter

[shell dagger]

Idk

[finite heron]

Antimatter upgrade

[hoary knot]

Discovering balatro is the best decision I've ever made

[lime remnant]

tier 2 of blank voucher is antimatter

[shell dagger]

I’m on the soul

[mental bloom]

hm

[runic lily]

Same

[finite heron]

+1 jkr slot

[cloud sinew]

no exodia jokers

[finite heron]

Basically black deck

[cloud sinew]

and this seems like an exodia joker

[humble gulch]

@ancient gyro Look at this shit

[hoary knot]

16 times and not discovering antimatter is wild

[mental bloom]

if you buy blank 10 times you unlock antimatter

[finite heron]

Does anyone here like black deck

[cloud sinew]

i do!

[limpid crater]

what is antimatter

[humble gulch]

Me

[limpid crater]

i have never seen it

[mental bloom]

kinda

[runic lily]

I like it but... in higher stakes i prefer somthing else

[cloud sinew]

+1 joker slot

[finite heron]

Gold stake hates black deck

[shell dagger]

isn’t that kinda the point

[mental bloom]

a special voucher that gives you +1 joker slot

[finite heron]

Evil deck

[hoary knot]

No

[mental bloom]

but you can only see it in a run once you bought blank first

[humble gulch]

I'd say 100 dollars is worth

[finite heron]

I feel like throwing up

[limpid crater]

oh

[lime remnant]

funny i hate green deck more

[limpid crater]

well ive never won a round maybe thats why

[cloud sinew]

i hate nebula the most

[humble gulch]

TO UNLOCK IT

❤️‍🩹

[hoary knot]

Yellow deck my beloved

Early game carrier

[finite heron]

One must think of straight build happy

[ancient gyro]

ik

[mental bloom]

its fiiiiine

[finite heron]

I'm pretty sure having calvendish 2 times in a row in shops is like

[humble gulch]

Where's the sound

[ancient gyro]

I made an entire profile dedicated to it and completed it

[finite heron]

1 in 150 per slot 2 times in a row

[ancient gyro]

in space

[cloud sinew]

its still a lobotomy deck

[cloud sinew]

no

[humble gulch]

🐑

[mental bloom]

here too

[hoary knot]

This is literally a monkeys paw situation

[finite heron]

O yeah cause it's a uncommon or something

[mental bloom]

dayum

[cloud sinew]

no

[finite heron]

It's a rare

[cloud sinew]

no

[finite heron]

Isn't it

Wdym no

It HAS to be a rare

[cloud sinew]

it's not an uncommon and it's not a rare

[hoary knot]

What is

[cloud sinew]

there are only two other options, you got this twin

[humble gulch]

Has this ever been documented once? ❤️‍🩹

[finite heron]

It's a banana

[hoary knot]

Definitely not legendary

[mental bloom]

no idea

[finite heron]

It might be a common

It just might be

Who knows

[cloud sinew]

me

[hoary knot]

I don't remember Cavendish being common

[cloud sinew]

well it is

[finite heron]

I don't remember i just forget and learn again

[ancient gyro]

we have the resources to check

[humble gulch]

Historical shit happended today

[hoary knot]

Wasn't that Micheal

[slow iris]

cavendish is common

[finite heron]

I give Cavendish a 9.29/10

[hoary knot]

Oh

Oh I get the joke

[cloud sinew]

they both are

[shell dagger]

i font

[cloud sinew]

there is no joke twin

they are both common

[hoary knot]

Cavendish is common because it's the common type of banana nowadays

[lime remnant]

what joke

[hoary knot]

Yea I know

[humble gulch]

... Not the reason behind but okay...

[finite heron]

The punchline is that you get punched if you push it too hard

[hoary knot]

Really?

[cloud sinew]

i don't think that's necessarily true

[vivid stump]

hope mine doesnt break

[ancient gyro]

this topic sucks can we go back to talking about tdl vs matador payout ev

[cloud sinew]

what is the reason behind it

[slow iris]

i love getting cavendish from a judgement

[cloud sinew]

if you know that to not be the reason for definite

[slow iris]

clueless

[runic lily]

The inverse of ride the bus
I wonder how many builds would this be able to nameinf with this joker

[humble gulch]

For being a common I guess is just because michel is a common

[cloud sinew]

so you don't know

[finite heron]

Full house meta

[lime remnant]

better obelisk bro wth

make it 1.05

[ancient gyro]

you wish

[humble gulch]

Because michel is extint?

[shell dagger]

about naneinf hands

[humble gulch]

And cavendish is the new common banana?

[vivid stump]

horrible idea

[finite heron]

Obelisk is like much harder to play

[runic lily]

Yea i should probably tone down the mult xD

[finite heron]

This theoretically can be used since ante 1

[slow iris]

i think it makes sense for cavendish to be a common

[shell dagger]

is it +1.5x or +0.5x

[ancient gyro]

also old obelisk was technically already that with easier requirements

[runic lily]

I should never cook again hahahahaha

[hoary knot]

Well, that's what I said...

[lime remnant]

not that hard

[cloud sinew]

that's exactly what the other person said, just in a more roundabout way

[finite heron]

Early game it does nothing

[shell dagger]

or x1.5x

[ancient gyro]

sure it is 😐

[vivid stump]

its time to spam straights i js got shortcut on painted deck

[ancient gyro]

as are most xmult jokers

[lime remnant]

early game you would strive for +mult anyways lmaoo

not like cardsharp do much

not like blackboard do much

[humble gulch]

I were talking about it being a common just because michel is a common tho

[vivid stump]

do not diss obelisk

hologram too

[finite heron]

Do diss the Obelisk (because I'm feeling livid)

[ancient gyro]

yeah dont, I have a whole catalogue worth of obbylicks run screenshots

[runic lily]

Obelisk sucks ngl

[lime remnant]

whenever i pick holo i never get a standard pack and a card adding joker

[slow iris]

i mean you need mult to multiply so

[finite heron]

April fools is long gone

[slow iris]

probably won't have much of that early game

[finite heron]

True

[lime remnant]

[vivid stump]

thats ur experience holo is my goat

[runic lily]

Im being ratioed hahahhahahaha

[slow iris]

peakbelisk

[ancient gyro]

confirmation bias

[cloud sinew]

that is either not true or you have taken holo for less than 10 rounds

[lime remnant]

bro i never said its bad 😭

[finite heron]

I don't take Obelisk as it takes more than 3 neurons to use

I don't even read boss blinds

[ancient gyro]

i want a smarter discussion topic

[finite heron]

Let alone check cards

[vivid stump]

also rtb

[olive roost]

what should i do to get my first win i have like 20 hours on this game

[vivid stump]

i never do this

[ancient gyro]

have fun first

[shell dagger]

nah

[ancient gyro]

ok

[vivid stump]

lock in and be patient

[finite heron]

We dying to needle

[humble gulch]

Everyone is different, I got my first win in three hours

[vivid stump]

and like think about every decision you make

[lime remnant]

no im actually legit tjhere was a run i took holo and standard pack didnt show up until like 5 shops

[vivid stump]

frfr

[humble gulch]

Markiplier almost won on his first run...

[lime remnant]

only 2x but thats good enough for the win

[cloud sinew]

you said "whenever"

[cloud sinew]

wait

[finite heron]

What is a joker that have the least uses

[cloud sinew]

didnt you say bloodstone was the best gem joker

[slow iris]

Throwback

[vivid stump]

yes

[cloud sinew]

SHOWMAN

[lime remnant]

it was obviously exaggerated....

[humble gulch]

Loyalty card

[willow frost]

double cavendish break speedrun 49.96s @mental bloom

[finite heron]

It's technically usable

[finite heron]

This HAS to be it

[willow frost]

i think this is the optimal route, just need someone who can click/tap faster

[olive roost]

idk i think i'm lowkey just too stupid for this game

[mental bloom]

NOICE

[humble gulch]

I did it on 39 seconds tho

[willow frost]

thank you

[willow frost]

insane

[ancient gyro]

"lying" makes more sense but some ppl don't always admit to their wrongdoings right away

[willow frost]

ok wait you have the fastest animation speed ever though lmao

[vivid stump]

straights are officially my favorite hand

level 4 straight is already 140 x 17

[finite heron]

Because lying is goated in April (reference to a certain show)

[vivid stump]

or smth like that

[ancient gyro]

he also very quickly understood how powerful hologram was on his second playthrough

[lime remnant]

like igb

[vivid stump]

markiplier is smart

he played doki doki lit club one time

[ancient gyro]

let's not get too far

oh

ig

[cloud sinew]

you gotta be like 13 lmao

[willow frost]

he is though isnt he

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[runic lily]

I did test this one, honestly is a great deck thining tool

[slow iris]

isn't markiplier the red stuff in balatro

[finite heron]

Nuke the deck

[vivid stump]

nah im just jk

bro why did i say just jk

[lime remnant]

ts like exotic level of joker not rare 💀

[ancient gyro]

face cards face down

[cloud sinew]

this is just ridiculous

[lime remnant]

you still get 10 buck and you get to thin down 10 card

who thought of this

[cloud sinew]

immolate is still +$5 and -5 cards in deck in a lot of packs

[shell dagger]

op as hell

[runic lily]

I am bad cook and im launging at how bad my ideas are

[finite heron]

Is there a category of balatro fastest to lose by deleting every card

[runic lily]

I domt take it seriously lmao

[bronze tundra]

guys is there a mod to improve performance in balatro? my specs are really bad and when i reach high antes around 30 i only get about 30 fps

[cloud sinew]

#⚙・modding-general

[lime remnant]

it should be -50$ bucks 💀

[vivid stump]

there is no stopping this

[limpid crater]

what di seeded runs do

[vivid stump]

ur at ante 30 bro

[finite heron]

I will never financially recover from this

[vivid stump]

you prolly have like 100 cards full baron mime setup

[cloud sinew]

the seed is what dictates RNG, so if you play a run with the same seed you'll always get the same outcomes if you perform the same actions

[vivid stump]

also remove the debt ceiling so u can never buy anything ever

[slow iris]

seed where every shop has an obelisk

[runic lily]

Im kinda glad i get ya guys opinons cuz im using this for practice for when i make a....

[shell dagger]

Banana% is a category extension, someone should submit this

[humble gulch]

I'm not sure how I did it in 39 seconds but

[cloud sinew]

there's a seed where every joker is burnt joker

but because showman never appears, you can never get duplicates of burnt without invis lol

[ancient gyro]

my favorite

[finite heron]

Slight slip up on the first Cavendish this is improvable

[ancient gyro]

no flat mult joker seed 🗣️

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[limpid crater]

pkay new question how do you Win

[willow frost]

are you on mobile

[humble gulch]

Tablet, yes

[willow frost]

tapping is a lot faster than mousing

yes

that would make sense

[finite heron]

Mod the game so it runs at 12x speed

[shell dagger]

Pc speedruns seem to be quicker

[vivid stump]

"here win"

what do i replace with

[shell dagger]

Nothing

It’s ante 6

[cloud sinew]

i mean

[willow frost]

everything could be improved, you only need to discard 13 cards total

[final escarp]

guys why is nobody talking about the overpowered 6th legendary joker?

You get it by using 6 soul cards in one game without selling any legendary jokers.

Its name is “Joker” and it gives +4 mult. No setup. No strings attached.

On high card that’s the equivalent of discarding 92 cards with Yorick!

Its only balanced by being so hard to get in an unseeded run, but if you can it’s definitely an instant run winner

[humble gulch]

Probably because mobile players usually are SOO SLOW ❤️‍🩹

[ancient gyro]

I can do a 5 minute run

[finite heron]

I lowkey sold my brainstorm a couple times on ancident

[willow frost]

i can do a 15 minute ride but nobody says anything about that

[willow frost]

try it with the less discards strat

[final escarp]

wish I see more about this incredible joker +4 whole mult is actually insane

[finite heron]

How far can you run in 5 minutes

[willow frost]

you could easily get sub 30

[cloud sinew]

is this a threat

[shell dagger]

Approx 1.7km

[finite heron]

Vro is a machine

[finite heron]

Maybe.

[wintry ice]

semi-annoying uncommon sticker

[shell dagger]

No i am a young adult

[willow frost]

yeah thats kinda crazy ithink

[humble gulch]

Not much because I fucked up my knee

[ancient gyro]

almost a mile

[final escarp]

trib is useless, you have to play a king or a queen for a measly +1 mult on high card (1/4 of jokers gain)

[runic lily]

Is there any reason to why there isnt any way to get negative playing cards in the base runs?

[finite heron]

Y'all don't get tired when running?

[shell dagger]

Unbalanced

[cloud sinew]

I do! I have asthma

[humble gulch]

Not much

[ancient gyro]

i play soccer and track a bunch of my uni years

[shell dagger]

Everyone does, its a matter of how much and how quickly

[finite heron]

Balatro players are machines

[final escarp]

canio is even worse, you have to destroy 5 specific cards in your deck just for the same value, the ones that give +10 whole chips!

[runic lily]

That turn Wheel of fortune into Nope

[finite heron]

I hope you get better

[cloud sinew]

erm 4 actually

[final escarp]

yorick, as mentioned, will take 18.4 discards just to get to the same level

[cloud sinew]

it's not a curable disease twin

[finite heron]

The real fool in april

[humble gulch]

I box and it sometimes gets long as fuck

[wintry ice]

base chips don't matter past ante 2

[finite heron]

Better isn't a cure

[wintry ice]

if they do your run is dead

[final escarp]

1 x 5 = 5, 1 + 4 = 5

[cloud sinew]

oh true!

[ancient gyro]

tennis sessions can do that too

[humble gulch]

Yeah

❤️‍🩹

[cloud sinew]

i play balatro mostly

[shell dagger]

Runs can do that too

[wintry ice]

also if you're having trouble finding the material to make canio work

[cloud sinew]

i actually dont, i havent launched the game in a week

[wintry ice]

how are you going to use triboulet

when it runs on the same engine

[final escarp]

chicot, only works on one third of the blinds in the game and can negate positive effects like drawing 2 extra cards with the serpent

[humble gulch]

Trib is trash

[finite heron]

Trib is blue

[humble gulch]

We all know that blue isn't a color

[vivid stump]

i was about to win painted deck but then i got bottom decked

[cloud sinew]

it also stops matador from working! and it's a bus nerf as you can't get debuffed faces anymore!

[final escarp]

and lastly perkeo, who does literally nothing unless you get a specific card in the shop

[wintry ice]

oh this is a joke

makes sense

[ancient gyro]

canio nitpickers when they see trib nitpickers wanting 4 specific consumables and avoiding two specific boss blinds

[finite heron]

Legendary jokers should be able to be used in any combo tbh shouldn't require a specific build

That would make more sense

For its status

[shell dagger]

What did you need at the bottom of your deck

[cloud sinew]

i think it's fine

[ancient gyro]

4 of the legendaries can fit into about any build

[cloud sinew]

trib is the main offender

[vivid stump]

i didnt pull a straight in 3 discards

but lowk i played that horribly

someone else with a higher iq than me couldve won

[finite heron]

Balatro but you're on a week day and you have to only play 9 - 5 straights

[ancient gyro]

it happens

[cloud sinew]

i dont work so im unaffected

[ancient gyro]

unemployment 😀

[lime remnant]

abandoned deck 🤔

[runic lily]

Imagine a blank version of a boss blind

Like first encounter. Its name is "The air" desc is "does nothing...?"

Then second encounter its called "The Death" desc is "destory the rightmost joker" (then at the end make a copy of that joker with an eternal sticker)

At least if ya know if is there "The air" ya know "The death" is also there

[shell dagger]

im so frigging unemployed

(student)

[finite heron]

This does imply that orphans are significantly more consistent on their work

[lime remnant]

bro think he is blank 💀

[ancient gyro]

I do remote work as an industrial architect assistant

[lime remnant]

HOW DO YOU EVEN GET THIS

[ancient gyro]

unless im called in for draft work

[lime remnant]

WHERE DOES THIS COME FROM

[finite heron]

Abandoned

No face cards

[cloud sinew]

abandoned deck has an easier time playing 9-5 straights

[runic lily]

Dark humor at its finest

[wintry ice]

i'm so unemployed

(i have an interview in 2 days)

[lime remnant]

the orphan part 😭

i did not think of this

[cloud sinew]

thats fine

[finite heron]

English teachers finding meanings that weren't there:

[wintry ice]

is this a commentary on the coal industry

[limpid crater]

guys why do i suck so much

[shell dagger]

Lack of experience

[ancient gyro]

not enough apple juice

[finite heron]

This does kill a lot of runs

[runic lily]

What is the meaning behind oa6s?

[spice lance]

14 hand size in abandoned deck and still no straight... this game is trolling me

[limpid crater]

i have 18 Whole hours on ghis game

[shell dagger]

Rigged dice lands on 6 more often

[limpid crater]

how many more do i need 💔💔

[finite heron]

Wait how do you have 14 hand size

[lime remnant]

50

[finite heron]

Where did you get 6+ handsize

[lime remnant]

bean

[finite heron]

O

[lime remnant]

and paint

[finite heron]

Bean

[limpid crater]

What.

how much do i have to play thats crazy

[lime remnant]

j

[finite heron]

Big bean

[lime remnant]

watch balatro lesson 🤔

[brazen island]

Do you guys honestly think, for the sake of the games balance, that skip tags shouldn’t provide jokers with tags?

[wintry ice]

motherfu

[lime remnant]

it wouldnt change much i think

[finite heron]

[ancient gyro]

problem with doing that is it not implementing a risk factor, while still not being any better ev

[brazen island]

It wouldn’t change much but do you think the small change would be positive or negative

[wintry ice]

oh well didn't need it anyways

[ancient gyro]

negative

[brazen island]

The risk factor is that you skip a blind

[finite heron]

Pair shlorp

[wintry ice]

how does is it still the most played hand on a 4oak build 😭

[brazen island]

It makes joker skip tags significantly worse on gold stake

[ancient gyro]

the risk factor is buffing skips with the incentive to attract more noob stompers to skip blinds willy nilly because they don't know any better

[limpid crater]

i thought it was not smart to build ur deck of majority one suit

[wintry ice]

would have scored 2 mil with chad

roughly

polychrome playing cards are fun

[brazen island]

I think ideally skip tags should be buffed overall, as they are now they often serve very little purpose in an average gold stake run. Bit of a wasted mechanic which is sad since they’re fun

[ancient gyro]

their purposes are intended to be fun, not practical

[finite heron]

How do you properly use stone cards

[wintry ice]

stickers are 90% done

[ancient gyro]

shorter games will be the result of skips being more practical and thus playing less of the game

[long zodiac]

ofc the game gives me a perishable cavendish (gros michel went extinct with the first hand I played with it)

[ancient gyro]

in that sense

[brazen island]

Same goes for the whole game, doesn’t mean they shouldn’t also be more useable to win

[finite heron]

How does one get almost 1800 two pairs

[wintry ice]

this ranges from trivial to annoying

[wintry ice]

painted deck

[finite heron]

Square joker?

[wintry ice]

no it's just a better pair there

[burnt topaz]

I love having dedicated to trading card and rocket ante 1 and then getting erosion later

[ancient gyro]

I stickered one of those recently

[wintry ice]

honestly this is not bad

[idle kernel]

huh

[wintry ice]

mid obelisk level /j

tf is this

[burnt topaz]

8 black stakes complete, 7 to go

[ancient gyro]

what I had to work with

[wintry ice]

is it even worth the econ

[ancient gyro]

yeah

if you find any source of money

[wintry ice]

is this refering to brainstorm

oh true

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[wintry ice]

for some reason i thought i was already on ante 2

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1145164338823442463.webp?size=48&name=bluh&lossless=true

[ancient gyro]

2 steps ahead

[wintry ice]

so like this

slash jay

[crimson burrow]

mb old

[ancient gyro]

idk how "you" would make it work but I could

[wintry ice]

ok no more brainstorm i guess

[terse vale]

bleh

[shell dagger]

Yum

[dark relic]

I thought people wer exaggerating how addicting this was

[ancient gyro]

gwuh

[dark relic]

i like deck builders alright

i have put in 20 hours in 3 days

ive barely slept

[terse vale]

I wonder how cool a general art channel would be

[dark relic]

im tired, i must play more balatro

[terse vale]

you should prolly sleep now tho

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[wintry ice]

denial, acceptance, addiction, questioning

[serene forge]

awa

[rustic swallow]

welp smeared joker here i come

[serene forge]

obelisk hater skull reacting me lmaoooooo

jokes write themselves

[terse vale]

person i’ve never seen before skull reacting a message that says I hate bloodstone 🙏 fuckkk

[fervent pebble]

that feel when bloodstone hits 0 times on a flush 😍😍😍😍😍😍

[wintry ice]

this is boring but also

probably optimal

[ancient gyro]

um

[rustic swallow]

i luv bloodstone tho

[ancient gyro]

maybe

[terse vale]

I mean honestly madness isssss gonna carry you in terms of Xmult

[serene forge]

hex in spectrtal pack

[wintry ice]

no but trance

[serene forge]

gg

[wintry ice]

why should i be greedy for stickers if i only have 15 left anyways

[ancient gyro]

see I don't have that mindset

[terse vale]

ohh its painted I forgot

💭 yeah idk then

[ancient gyro]

greedy for stickers and being locked into a madness run

[slow iris]

typical fraudstone

[wintry ice]

you know

i'd likely be fine if i kept brainstorm

[ancient gyro]

last i checked you had no mult

[limpid crater]

What is bloodstone

[indigo mesa]

i think this might be the first time i dont take eternal four fingers, pretty much ever 😭😭😭 im sorry four fingers youre still my favorite joker (/gen)

[ancient gyro]

ikr

what are they saying

[languid steppe]

I just nearly choked Naninf

Forgot to wait to sell DNA till after Ante 24

[wintry ice]

i see an opportunity to get an annoying sticker

[languid steppe]

But the bean saved me

Bean bug op

First hand crimson heart hit the bean

[ancient gyro]

yeah

[wintry ice]

probably not pivoting to straight or flush either way

[vivid stump]

is hiker peak

[slow iris]

no

[wintry ice]

it's just mediocre

[slow iris]

fun when it works though

[ancient gyro]

peak mediocrity

[vivid stump]

madness is peak

[indigo mesa]

i have no idea how i am still alive

[ancient gyro]

hiker needs pillar immunity

[vivid stump]

wdym this is a great joker setup

[wintry ice]

i'm glad i'm 10 points away from winning

[indigo mesa]

i have ONE DOLLAR 😭

[vivid stump]

oh

[wintry ice]

6 the dollar

[vivid stump]

u can prolly win the next few rounds

[slow iris]

sell campfire for campfire value

[vivid stump]

bro the last three rares ive gotten have been the tribe

[ancient gyro]

one dollar

[vivid stump]

should i get paredolia

[indigo mesa]

i have three 5s, three 6s, 3 aces, and two 7s of hearts, used all of my discards, and still didn’t find a SINGLE flush house. im actually gonna cry

[indigo mesa]

black deck gold stake is so ruthless its actually brutal this is harder then GN cruelty and jokerless combined 😭

[languid steppe]

Will it Naninf?

[vivid stump]

is it cus u earn no money

[vivid stump]

maybe

[wintry ice]

this is such a guarrateed win

[languid steppe]

It better because I can't roll for serpent again

[wintry ice]

but i'm also just greedy

augh

[heady fable]

5 gold stake runs today ZERO discard vouchers

[ancient gyro]

why flouse on a deck that has less digging power than other decks

[wintry ice]

andy what do you say

[ancient gyro]

huh

[shell dagger]

No

[humble gulch]

You don't need vouchers tho...

[wintry ice]

do i choose to deny the thing that got several of my runs killed

[ancient gyro]

uh no

[open vale]

after grinding for months, i finally got naneinf

[languid steppe]

How many do I need?

[heady fable]

Yeah I know it was just frustrating

[wintry ice]

(as in, should i take driver's license instead of expecting to get a second sticker)

[shell dagger]

44 kings in hand

[languid steppe]

AHHHH

[ancient gyro]

the no was in you take the one guaranteed sticker

[heavy heron]

personally i’d sticker maxxx

license is expired anyway!

[vivid stump]

trust me bro hiker should upgrade before card is scored

[heavy heron]

it really should

given how terrible it is in itself

[ancient gyro]

since idk how you score against vv when you're questioning it, much less surviving with what you have now

[heavy heron]

vv isn’t a real boss don’t listen to him

get them stickers

1 in 5 vv who cares

take the 80% chance

[slow iris]

Violent Vessel is real

[ancient gyro]

i don't want to remind you of their iconic blunders

[vivid stump]

this is like a noob combo but it works

like if i was a noob and i got this i would think that i would win easily

[ancient gyro]

if it's white stake anything goes

[wintry ice]

true

i have gotten some glass runs to happen on painted

but they're not a guarrantee despite the digging power

[slow iris]

hiker not very good but fun when it works

[wintry ice]

i might play more towards streaking to get my gameplay more consistent

[humble gulch]

I love chocolate milk

[ancient gyro]

i too was let down

[humble gulch]

I hate hiker

So much

[vivid stump]

are 9-5 straights the best

[languid steppe]

F

[ancient gyro]

i prefer J-7

[vivid stump]

which one has the highest likelihood

[ancient gyro]

anywhere in the 5-10 area

[vivid stump]

also should i scary face or try to scale castle

[ancient gyro]

all ranks go in 5 different straight sequences

[wintry ice]

you don't need scary face if you have castle to cover for chips

[vivid stump]

kk

straights are officially my fav hand

but once i finally get good at dekfixing flush five is prolly gonna be

[ancient gyro]

lucky*

[vivid stump]

free money... but what do i replace

talking about the polychrome btw

[heavy heron]

so how did your run go

[vivid stump]

should i even replace anything

[spice lance]

perfect for pair slop run tbh

[vivid stump]

im playing straightslop now

[spice lance]

replace the smiley face then

or maybe the last one

[vivid stump]

bro paredolia is the reason why its gonna be free money

[woven remnant]

what does slop even mean at this point

[vivid stump]

idk man

replacing smiley face ig

[humble gulch]

Absolutely nothing

[wintry ice]

is shonen fight slop

[vivid stump]

slop

[slow iris]

slopslop

[long zodiac]

i somehow made this run work

pairslop to the max

[vivid stump]

throwback user are we deadass

actually idc about throwback

[long zodiac]

It won me my run

At the end of the day when the game gives me hell, I can’t really be picky

[vivid stump]

yup

[long zodiac]

im assuming i get rid of throwback here

[serene forge]

horseshit

[vivid stump]

bro ur gonna lose on the very next round

if u lose the throwback

[long zodiac]

yeah idrc about going far in endless with this run

ik im gonna get fried sooner or later

[vivid stump]

game-discussion has kinda turned into this servers general

[woven remnant]

I didnt know neato jokers mod has arrested development references

[vivid stump]

thunk is a clubs enjoyer...

[humble gulch]

Someone is gonna be very mad

[vivid stump]

yup

[long zodiac]

Yeah you can say that again

[wintry ice]

world's best throwback and it's still 4 polychromes

[long zodiac]

It was a little better than a polychrome

At least at ante 8

[visual niche]

69 jokers golden

nice

[spice lance]

guess what voucher I'm missing (baby difficulty)

[vivid stump]

either magic trick or planet merchant

[humble gulch]

Illusion

[vivid stump]

illusion cant be that bad its just a certificate but you lose money

its def better than magic trick

[humble gulch]

But you need to buy magic trick, bro

[humble gulch]

No...

[spice lance]

yeah, It obvious is Illusion, like who's gonna buy magic trick lol

[vivid stump]

what abt tarot tycoon or planet tycoon

[red briar]

yall

it finally happened

i got the first gold stake win

ever

[humble gulch]

Easier to get since zodiac exists

[vivid stump]

well ur only missing 1 voucher so that means you must've bought magic trick

wait do you only unlock it if you buy it

[visual niche]

i used to a lot back in my beginner days

[humble gulch]

Hell yeah

[vivid stump]

POVERTY

[red briar]

immediate wincon

gg

vagabond doesnt even kill your econ which is the funniest part

you can have like 0$ going into a round and 130$ coming out of it

[spice lance]

congrats

[humble gulch]

You need to buy 20 playing cards to unlock illusion

[red briar]

i did it on

green deck of all things

[visual niche]

What deck?

[visual niche]

oh

nice

[red briar]

i thought it would happen on plasma or ghost

[humble gulch]

And the chance of getting illusion after buying magic trick is still pretty low

[vivid stump]

from like standard packs or magic trick

[humble gulch]

Magic trick

[slow iris]

yes

[vivid stump]

wait so do you unlock it after buying it

[humble gulch]

Yes

[vivid stump]

that means the person must've bought magic trick

[sour portal]

You have to take magic trick and buy 20 playing cards from the shop to unlock illusion

[humble gulch]

Yes, and then it can appear every time you buy magic trick

And no one is buying playing cards unless you have holo

[vivid stump]

we are all defeating grass toucher

[vivid stump]

some jokers make some vouchers worth it

[humble gulch]

Like hologram making magic trick useful

[sour portal]

I mean I probably will just for the sake of completion but that’s just me lol

[spice lance]

ONE joker make ONE voucher worth it

[humble gulch]

Everyone

[humble gulch]

And illusion is trash, why would I want more expensive cards

[woven remnant]

Imma sleepslop now

[rancid gull]

Me when I deckfix my sleeping schedule

[vivid stump]

ima play some more last meadow online

[slow iris]

nop

[vivid stump]

what is BD++

[rancid gull]

Black deck c++

[spice lance]

Winstreak BD++ must be funny

[rancid gull]

Helllll nah

[vivid stump]

buni would do that

[tidal flame]

I finally beat purple stake with these Jokers

I got certificate and hologram as my first 2 jokers

Then mime

[pale wolf]

why do people say obelisk is good if it resets every hand

top 10 world balatro wonders

[vivid stump]

are u copying a flush player

[pale wolf]

what does that mean

i play obelisk and it reset at 1.6 max

might be bugged

[snow patrol]

Guys I'm new to balatro, may I know a few tips and also what are some cards (tarot, joker etc) I shoud use and avoid

[light brook]

kid named grass:

[vivid stump]

"is there a problem with the games code? I only play checkered deck flushes but for some reason obelisk keeps resetting"

jandom what do you think of my new name

[light brook]

democratic republic of brongo PIVOT 😭 ✌️

[light brook]

based

couldn’t think of a better representative for rebate

[vivid stump]

when will they make brown joker

bronkler

broker

[light brook]

shit joker

[vivid stump]

brimbo

[pale wolf]

the only good online resources for learning balatro are balatrowiki.org and balatro university youtube channel by drspectred

[light brook]

“man this joker is SHIT”
“yeah i know it’s literally in the name”

[snow patrol]

oh k thx

[pale wolf]

posting here will be hit or miss on quality of advice depending on who's online

[vivid stump]

never get magic trick, planet merchant unless u have hologram(for magic trick), or constellation(planet merchant).

vouchers btw

[light brook]

also remember everyone plays differently

[pale wolf]

but doc's beginner vids are a great place to start

[vivid stump]

yes especially me i give horrible advice

[light brook]

there’s no wrong way to play as long as you have fun!

unless you play throwback.

[snow patrol]

oh k thx

[light brook]

or many other examples

[pale wolf]

win rate on gold stake ante 8 is the default discussion meta for most evaluations made in here so you have to specify if you mean for peak scoring or endless instead

[idle kernel]

no

just no

[terse dock]

Bloodstone:

[snow patrol]

Is there like an accurate joker tier list?

[waxen quartz]

only if you make one

yay for those seeds where everything is going ridiculous (invis joker + ankh and roll up a BP) and you lose because you misclicked

[serene forge]

over an hour late

[tribal pendant]

can i get balatro for free anywhere

[balmy ocean]

Yes, it’s called the black market

[tribal pendant]

alr tried that, didnt work :/

[balmy ocean]

You could try selling your soul

[tribal pendant]

good idea

[fluid zealot]

You can’t sell the soul you can only use it or skip

[balmy ocean]

Unless it’s camio

[spice lance]

I bought this game for half a buck

[spare canopy]

If you give some money to Steam they give you Balatro for free as a bonus

[tribal pendant]

oo

[spare canopy]

Especially on the Balatro page though

[noble mango]

Bloodstone or ancient joker
Which better in your opinion

[spare canopy]

Bloobstone

[balmy ocean]

Depends. Am I able to find an ankh, invisible, and oops all 6 within the matter of 4 antes?

[spice lance]

ancient throws bloodstone out of water

big dong btw

[ebon condor]

no

[solar meteor]

there are close

but there will never be one in true form

[ebon condor]

if you are a new player you should absolutely not be looking at a tierlist to determine how to play

theyre good for ranking the average performance of jokers but they lose a lot of nuance

which you need to understand if you want to get good

[fluid zealot]

That’s beautiful

I don’t think I’ve gotten obelisk over 5x

[tidal pawn]

Guys is bloodstone a good pick here???

[fluid zealot]

wee pivot even better

[vale shale]

Alright alright. 1 take gold stake run any deck. What deck we thinking bout.

[humble gulch]

"Can I naneinf?"

[noble mango]

Each joker has its own use cases

Some do stand above the rest but mostly they are somewhat balanced without that much powercreep

Well i mean there's powercreep in form of onyx agate and gluttonous joker

Some combos are much better than others also

[vale shale]

Yeah like for example

Photograph sucks

But with chad it's somewhat viable

[noble mango]

Imo i prefer jimbo than photograph

It's just miles better

4 mult is better than 2 mult

(pairslop especially early game)

But later game
If you got Chad
Yeah it's better than jimbo

16 mult better than 4 mult

[terse dock]

AJ no diff

[noble mango]

Also
Chad on its own isn't too good

[wanton finch]

agree because bloodstone is locked to hearts while ancient joker isnt

[noble mango]

Like
At most it gives you +28 more chips

[wanton finch]

but rng do rng stuff

[noble mango]

Also it being locked to hearts mean you can just immolate and spam sun

[wanton finch]

true

[noble mango]

Or deck fiz shenanigans

[wicked sonnet]

naneinf sucks ass

[noble mango]

On which if you had all your deck hearts then
There's that

[wicked sonnet]

i am waiting on bluprint

[wanton finch]

deck what (sorry im new and i dont know the tech)

[wicked sonnet]

i have rolled so fucking much

i have found so many showman and vagabonds and extra barons

[stable basin]

TIL: This counts as a straight flush

[slow iris]

ancient joker sweeps

[noble mango]

Deck fixing is you fixing your deck to be as efficient as possible

Ex : standart A K Q J 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 with each suit

Into all Kings of hearts with a seal and editions like multicard/bonus for example

[wanton finch]

oh the z just tripped me up

makes sense

[terse dock]

Aj doesnt get murked by many bosses

Bloodstone does

[noble mango]

So well you are popping that flush five every single time

[wanton finch]

yeah i got it now

[noble mango]

Aj rng do be silly sometimes

Bro chose the debuffed suit

[terse dock]

Misplayed

Shouldve skipped the round prior

Not aj's fault

[wicked sonnet]

atp i'm considering taking rare skip for 4 rares

given i have a couple blocked

but i still need boss reroll voucher

[wanton finch]

bloodstone is 1 in 2 vs aj being 1 in 1 right

[terse dock]

yeah

[wanton finch]

makes sense

[terse dock]

Hey wait a minute

[wanton finch]

id probably choose aj over bloodstone then (but thats just me and my only 2 blinds having been beaten)

[noble mango]

Well youbknow aj never picks the same suit
