too bad i drank it, no more splashes for you
"yesss let me limit my opportunity for gold cards and blue seals yessss"
alright thanks guys
+mult is usually like 0-20 chips is usually 50-100 + so it does more early game
i think you need like 900 chips/hand to beat a8boss?
i mean i would have done it if i still needed a sticker on stuntman
like a flush with 100 chip scores 2500, 60 chips 30 mult wld score 2000
Does card chips does good as well, or mostly joker chips?
hm
yeah if you get vv on plasma gold stake when going full chips you're kinda fried
on my last plasma gold stake i had to go against vv on full chips
the shit i had was crazy
Once had to brute force my way with 3 runners 😭
if you get vv youre kinda fried
at least its runner
marathon build 😭🙏
I hate Bloodstone
i hate cripstone 👇 🫳 🫷
truth
i love jimbo
True, I love seeing jimbo pop up
wheres his cousin that gives chips
this sure is a run
as in, the people who made helldivers 2?
my god this looks so cool
i once got nat negative eternal jimbo in first shop for exactly 7 bucks
kinda looks like the moon lord
yummy
only very kinda
printer
i litterally had that same 2 jokers in this run lol
rough gem wishes it was this good
fotocad 🥀
we eating good tonight
forced photochad
ph*tochad 🥀
negative makes sense for photo
cuz it provides negative value?
cuz its evil
smh my head...
yet another wrong legendary
this is like the peakest shit ever but i have the rigging skills of a 2 year old
fatass
hey he gives like, 2x mult :3
4x with red seal
4x with seal
i sold it for reserved parking
why is trib so fat actually, put him on a no face card diet
insert guy disintegrating gif
that fatass probably needs to reserve parking into any where he goes
1 in 2 chance for every face card held in hand to give $1
friendly reminder that this banana survived 8 full antes today
holy moly
paying him to not eat face cards, that could help him lose weight
guys what would yall consider the strongest deck?
poop deck
valid
yo ho
cavalry summoned
bro reacted with the cast of sbr
umamusume
should i take this guy just to get the good vouchers
the fuh even is tha- 634 DOLLARS???? ANTE 15???????????????????
jimbo bank loan
canvas?
big paintbrush
(im realizing slowly that im very shit at this game)
cryptid mod
me when both cryptid's canvas and blank canvas arrive
55 eggs
i'm thinking taking it really impedes your chances of doing what you need to do anyways so probably not
oh real

x27 mult basically guaranteed (I changed the deck to have 45 Spades & Clubs against just 7 Hearts & Diamonds)

gold stake ass joker layout
d tier jonkler 🥀
i put it in a special bottom Fuck you tier
the fuck is your blueprints copying dawg
Didn’t come across it from what I played. It’s possible I just skipped over it or didn’t roll enough
blackboard?
anti-flush tier
oop
flush is also f tier
f stands for flush
s stands for straight
ew /j
why are straight so hard to find but so ass
straights are lowk good
straight is not ass bro wtf
OH SHIT I DONT EVEN HAVE BLANK
tf do straights do
i dont like them too much because the one card missing on ante 7 incident but
they just be there
ok yeah this runs gg
win runs yo
like people of the other gender
not crimes apparently
insane scaling
whos winning runs with straights
me
me sometimes
._.
when i dont feel like pairslopping it today
Out of the base hands (not including the three hidden ones) 4 OAK is my least played by far
are the straights ok
whos playing PAIR BUILDS??
4oak is good
FOLK 😭😭😭
gold stake players
brothertinotopsis tf pair gon do
its insane how localthunk had to invent straight people so he could make a hand type
on gold stake you play straight flush 💯
lmao
win gold stake 😭😭😭
ok with turtle
on gold stake you play three of a kind
quogbait
It’s the easiest hand to get (apart from high card) and has synergy with the most jokers
HOW IS PAIR WINNING GOLD STAKES??? ITS LITTERALLY 10X2??
i dont care if half of these don’t actually do anything for me its just really funny having 14 jokers
i mean you can
cavalry has been summoned
kid named jokers
play the game more and ull get it
pair has way too many synergies
calm down and watch some high win rate gameplay instead of roffle
yes people play base pair with no upgrades or jokers thats what we mean and nothing to do with consistent scoring hands with scaling mult jokers or anything like that
easy to spam ones too
roffle slander ❤️
the jokers that synergise with pairs give 80 chips and 8 mult
oops all rentals
rip
chat are we for real
ride the bus gives 40 mult if youre good enough
which is like
run winning
how can we do to nerf pair?
with any x mult
give me back my discard
gg wasn't meant to be anyways
your baiting rn
it just gives 40 mult vro you dont even need to be good
true
mb bro i wasnt familiar with pairs game
i only reset bus once because i was zoned out as fuckkkk
bus doesnt just give you 40 mult, it gives you the win
im a newgen chud 😔
i dont think pair will get nerfed directly but it will be less centralizing once thunk updates the game
dw ull get it
who up riding they bus
planets exists
Is it weird that on my only gold stake win I spammed flush?
oh really
who up greening they joker 👀👀👀👀
thats means yo are a beginner
all of us 😂😂
that... synergizes with clubs not pairs?
I’ll admit I am.
But to make it make a bit more sense it was checkered deck
oh thats fair
i don't think pair is necessarily op, its just the concept of that easy, repeatable hands are strong and reliable
it scales with clubs am i blind
you need to learn how indirect synergies work
you can discard whatever cards you want and it will give chips for your pairs
how are pairs gonna help a joker that scales with clubs ion get it
pairs kinda lack chips
.
castle suits change
you nerf pair by buffing other things
oh
youll never be able to just
you can discard way more because its impossible to like not draw a pair
nerf paiur
based on the cards on deck
so many jokers strong with pairslop
ah ok
speaking of pair slop, heres a good example
the end game plan of this build is literally just scale pairs
eh
thats it
whats the first one again idk
@ whatever the japanese letter guy is for true pairslop
green joker
green joker
not bad for 13 rounds
Gains +1 mult per hand, -1 mult per discard
wowie what does it do
this
for example bus is good with pairs because you can spam them and quickly grow it, it doesnt state you need to do pairs, but it just works so much better with them
also
ah
this isnt even necessarily a pair build tho except for grimbo,
ok that... actually makes sense i think i get it kinda
greening my joker any day
literally the only thing you should play in this build is pair?
smilley face is redundant
GREEN JOKERS THAT GOOD??
you play a lot of pairs and you scale your jokers ✅
Who the fuck is gene
and sock is an econ generator
pairs.
what if no jokers that scale
the fuck is that cuh 🙏
same goes for square joker - spam pairs and 2 random useless cards and youll have easy chips scaler
green is good enough. if the 8th ante blind is 1mill+, it's not good enough
you can still win
unique and situational, it's ok
wtf are you playing bro 😭
you could easily pivot into anything else unless you want to focus into grimbo
pair is just the most spammable hand with reasonable chips. 1oak doesn't quite get there
groker isnt that situational 😭
does the amount of chips and mult randomize each time
ive never touched green joker in my life it always seemed shit to me
if you pivot out of grimbo you just die if no other mult shows up
never buy no balatro from no gas station
balatro II
balatra 2 electrick boogaloo
If you love discard, he's bad
bros playing trabalo 😭
its so good for pair lobotomy
free mult
"new run"? i better go catch it
my games are usually like discard everything kinda
Worst mistake ever
double skip and die to the boss
f it we ball
guys i managed to beat the psychic
maybe thats why ive never won a game
holy w
double skip and win 5 balatrillion doller
i always forget he exists and play like 4 cards then cry
same
depends on how big grimbo is, playing bigger hands with smiley will get you plenty of mult, plus it doesn't synergize with things like face card or glass cards
we survived
yeah twin you got a lot to learn, lowk watch balatro university series "Balatro 101"
5 billion zillion gazillion balatrillion doller
imma play a game with my new information what deck do you recomend
wdym it depends? if you dont find anything else that scales you WILL just die, smiley is not an endgame solution
we already won
holy molaa
some easy decks are yellow, abandoned, and ghost (to me)
i always forget hex deletes jokers and cry when i lose a joker and reset
Boring game, sell RTB for more challenge
yellow is good for econ headstart, abandoned has free deckfixing and ghost is just genuinely good
also yellow???
first ever black stake complete 
FUCKING DUMB AND DUMBER
it was such a free one for gold staking, that 10 bucks goes such a lomg way
its an ante 8 run, i'm trying to progress
huh lemme test it out ive never played it actually
ill be back after i die or win
well just buy only one and hex it?
"i always forget"
reading the card explains the card
holy god damn
grimbo is worse than smiley here, you need xmult to win anyways. something like a full house will give you 50 mult, is grimbo really worth spending the $50+ to get to that same amount of mult
i also see a lot of new players glaze green deck, to me it was super boring and like a big nothing burger, but maybe youll like it as a new player, idk?
green deck ive played actually its pretty good i get like so much money
imo
i forget it exists genuinely
the point is that smiley is finite, it wont ever get better than 50 mult and i need more than that for the endgame
alright ive reached my actual last ante i think
if there isnt retcon in this shop i lose
which comes from xmult, not by scaling grimbo 1 mult at a time
wtf its crystal
it is currently the only reason im alive
unlike smiley
which is inconsistent
and not fit for an environment like gold stake
i got 2 good looking vouchers is that good? (clearence sale and the more poly foil thingy)
yeah sure it'd be cool if i drew face cards every hand
but grimbo applies every hand
The smiley and sock are the disposable Jokers there, not grimbo imo
smiley is simply worse
sale is better because less money spent, duh
the sock is eternal
which is a shame
the editions one is eh, its like okay
:D
free win :(
current build (im poor as shit because im taking dumb stuff for fun, realistically you should have about $15 rn)
AY OOPS ALL 6'S
if you wanna go pair build, grimbo fits the bill much better than sock and smiley obviously
its one thats not gonna do a whole lot but nice to have on the offchance it does something
its not a want thing bro, i have to to be surving the blinds rn
its gold stake
always a couple vouchers away
now find some chips and xmult and game is gonna win itself
wow thats funny
get econ
looking good?
🔥
this just wins the game on its own tbh
this is so pair lobotomy coded
not so bad
pairslop wins the game
also nat neg acrobat 😭
chips missing
i mean if your econ doesn't exist because you're scaling a rental grimbo, then yeah you have no choice to keep using it
no pair in the starting hand wow
what will econ get me
I think grimbo plus acrobat just wins
deck fixing to make more face cards and glass and gold and other stuff
its not white stake
i dont have the money or time for that
i have to be scoring
there ya go
if glass comes, sure i'll use it
some chippies
but its not a guarantee
yeah because you destroyed your econ scaling a rental grimbo
the employed friend talking to the unemployed friend
no hand money and -3
you play this seed and skip the grimbo you die
+mult eventually falls off, so you cant just keep adding it, chips are also good to have in any form (even just some foil jonkler works), but other than that you got some free win opportunity
no bro i dont have time to hop on the game i need to be at work
do i sell a +375 runner for droll joker
yea
ok ok noted
wait what
here's what the deck looks like
can replace dice later, not doing much here, but the rest looking fine
i can just glass the boss
im not even being like result oriented, this is literally just the truth of the situation
i'll take your word for it
ah ok
if you dont just settle for something that will probably win you the game then you die going for greater
replace dice for burgur
?
green scaling potential
so yes?
idk your scoring situation
i'd sell jolly instead
i mean seems reasonable, idk if i would do it but it does make sense
i be ballin
160k a pair without enhancements
$4 burglar
it's lvl 18
the voucher
so runner is like ~2.25x
get horsed
hm i think i can beat the boss if i play glass
burglar is an econ joker cuz of the hands
horsed for what wtf
that as well
burger is such a good joker
i felt like it
because burglar is not actually a joker I was trolling
i love burgers
i'm taking the risk
oh my god
did this run yesterday btw
I was more looking at the steel but ok
the editioned team
low stakes!
smear 🤤🤤🤤🤤
why is it so squished 😭
file compression
someone should make a mod that adds a squished joker
what does smeared really do for you except make you weak to 2 boss blinds
Easy fludhes
oh i score 147k without runner
4 actually
i almost died
that's great
flushes already easy
i used to be a two pair addict
enables easier obelisk outs
but now fluhh is my best frend
oh hell nah wtf
all 4 suit blinds become more dangerous
what
can someone see what the route is for this seed, im curious 8QKQJBH5
I never do obelisk
hi guys im new to balatro and was just wondering how to unlock rental and eternal cards cus i keep seeing them in youtuber videos. ive only beaten the red, blue, green and yellow deck so far on the lowest difficulty
uhhhh specific deck
whats score situation looking like
i think
figures
peak setup
I don't know which ones
shit
also nice pfp
high stakes
oh i see is it the one that requires u to beat on gold stake?
i know what you must do
just keep playing, rentals and eternals appear on higher stakes
wow negative soda
gold stake IS the one with perishables i think
amazang
you gotta get naneinf e304 isnt cutting it
tysm 🙏
Uhm, actually is luchador
once again
black stake unlocks eternals, orange perishables, gold rentals

deck that makes it easier to set up 5 card hands
oh boy
isnt the psychic just like free usually
like it only fucks up high card
they make your life harder except eternal is sometimes good
meh i mean
Plasma Deck got hands 🥀
rental is sometimes good too
guh?
painted so far was my hardest deck to win pairless
what is this
1$ jokers that you can sell mid-round
whats left to gold i guess
whar
ohh
how is reserved parking still there
common
oh like on purpose
I really wish on this win screen i could see the jokers, I would share this as a screenshot but people cant tell what I had.
it's not a joker i frequently take as eternal
close
whats a really good joker you considered ass when you started playing 👀👀👀
double polychrome eternal reserved parking on ghost
W games
with a caveat
(i threw the second run)
what do i do?
i mean i've done the same
dont crop your screenshots lowk, we need all the info if we wanna help
what is jolly doing here
kill jolly
Hiker
death
jolly is putting a drop in a pond rn
oh sorry
lol
for me, and im not joking, it was mail 😭😭😭
ok but like what
you ever accidentally reroll into fibbonacci
i knew ZERO importance of econ
ok my scoring litterally got quintopled wtf
i just ignored anything that gives money because its not score hence not worth
thats why i said you need chips
balatro player discovers chips exist
:D
the more +mult you add less effective each added one becomes
damn nice deck
thats why you need both mult and chips
love me some acrobats
first gold stake run kinda nervous! 😬
hanging chad i feel like is the one noobs always skip on
thanks
i tend to neglect chips a lot
I underestimate foil
okay
Yw
skip for the gamble?
the game really, really wants me to win
YES
fibonaccihh
no
dude i feel so unsafe until get both some kind of chips and some mult
what are you gambling for
nah
dude i don't get why so many people don't skip enough
mid tag
because it's usually impractical
i'm ready to get 50 blue seals
that tag is more often than not just gonna do nothing
lmao
i dunno bout you but i skip small blinds usually
i don't
green is fine
oke
one scaling +mult is enough
often times you're missing out on a lot of value for a not so great reward
fair enough
2-3$ and a shop are better than all tags other than investment
Should I get rid of Sock & Buskin or Photograph for Cavendish, or just skip it?
i mean i usually play yellow deck red stake so
look for xmult lowk
Ante 6 onward i don't skip
should i be opening celestials btw
magic trick trolls again
are stone cards underrated or fairly rated
photograph for cavendish
this becomes even worse on later antes because you have interest
including a shop
Sock is generally more valuable
you're missing out on a shop
i’m dead :((
open any pack if yoy can afford em without dipping below 25 bucks
prob the worst deck to skip early for any reason
girl what are you saying
aight
idk i'm used to it
should you skip the first couple small blinds in red stake+ since they give no money
photo is being retriggered by chad and is eternal
🥀
ya
if theres like an investment tag
bad habits usually amount to that
maybe not
mute up lil bro
skipping shops is cringe
Gosh this is difficult ....
gold cards and mime, 10 antes without rolling too hard
i see
you still get money from remaining hands and a shop
i don't like saying this but go past red stake before giving advice
omg, it was an investment tag and then now i have blueprint + photograph and havent even beaten big blind on ante 1 XD
7.5x holo with fewer than 52 cards in deck
yes, this is stupid
the skip reward is worth less than the skipped blind+shop
i am so cooked
unless it's a negative tag for me
nah you fine
not skipping "enough" is like not drinking "enough" alcohol
that acrobat is gonna save
what do i play king high?
skip
oh god
but i’m dead so my money doesn’t matter
smug shitpost
you got scaled green and acrobat, youre fineprobably
lets see
you are fine here
does a high card with half joker and acrobat not work
i won yay
Goddamn 🥀🥀🥀
the initial shop slots are worth $4 bc you reroll $5 for the second slots
and it increases by 1 per roll
i wont take but just a question does this litterally set my mult to 0
nah, if you get it it will be X1
No
what if it was negative
still acts as x1
x2
if you have empty slots after taking it, it will give you more xMult
ah
the jimbo sound effect is stuck playing in my head
both booster packs are worth an artificial 1 dollar
Even if it could, it would involve selling a joker to take so its own value would be 1x
yay pair upgrade
you can technically naneinf with this card tho
technically
quadrillion negatives
sadness
technically you can naneinf with flower pot too
Five hundred negatives.
:D
81 on plasma ezpz
but it doesnt mean you should do it
goes with about every x mult joker
how about with smeared + flush five spam?
Flash Sale ($40)
Booster packs are included in shop rerolls.
even throwback
smeared isn't an xmult joker
"about"
Flush 5 can’t trigger flower pot with smeared alone
that one is stable X1 mult
lvl4 pair
love it
resist the greed resist the greed
utility*
also i have a slightly funny screenshot
yeah
you can't naneinf with it if you can't repeatedly multiply the score with it
how did i make him say this
i have a thousand of those
image isnt loading but green goblin mask
fair
hey i did that
the hand types base planet scoring is barely relevant to endless mode
also how have i never gotten brainstorm yet
YAY
the context is wee joker
gem alert
holy
but i want stickers
fire
IM DEAD
how many wins are you at
what joker is this guys?
oh wait i have 4 hands wtf
4 hands
why resist that
is 2m on ante 3 good? what score should i try to aim for, or should i just try to get past each blind
stickering?
burglur w
burglar bypasses needle
shoot the moon but with kings -> scoop de woop
ah w
barone
chip jokers are usually the easiest to replace when stickering
more than the requirement
lvl5 pair yay
average ben 10 alien
lmao
lmao
im like fib wee is heavenly
made me giggle
overscoring just a tad
i'm here all week folks
nah
but mult you said?
im like
i wonder how zebra is doing on his painted++ profile
i guess yeah
ok game
skips are eh
find ways to make that score consistent
painted++ is dead and should never have been born
wait polychrihh might not be too good
you can do it but its just gambling
no skip?
on the update ill do another c++
aight
yea but it's eternal
unfortunately
yeah
also cola can save from leaf
veri usful
i think it's better for me to get my econ back up anyways
It can be
i once bought burglar when relying on ts thing for chips 🙏 5 balatrillion iq play
do we ball
they got burger
i got burglur
not as high as I thought
Bruh
i be 6ing my sense
what is green joker at
6th sense is hard to use with burglar
you cant really kill anything tho can you
whats score looking like
if you have a lot of discards
kinda good?
per played hand
oh man that seems weirdly low
and the requirement is?
50+k
huh?
you're scoring roughly 90k per round
that looks like it would do more for some reason
oh
they're probably missing planet levels
any form of x mult that isn't burger acro
they also don't have an xmult joker that activates more than once per round
oh xmult is needed?? what about that poly?? that you made me not get??
you don't need that much score
do you guys take voucher skip early for plasma naninf attempts?
well you would have to kill something important for just 1.5x and skips are mid
Is it worth it to skip binds?
i think some bonus cards or a steel is good enough
Aced it
oh
like pre anti 8 or 10
i see what you did there
that
only for investment on ante 1 or 2 in ante 8 games usually
Should I still do small binds even if I don’t make money from them
I'm ace cold
a top up tag can be useful if you have nothing
btw i do 15k not 10k mb
shops, hand money and interest:
you still get money from hands and a shop from the round
i just tested it
:3
that looks like a very warm pillow
ecto black?
preferably not
why?
i'd take deja vu and black hole
you have disposable jokers
put deja on which one
if you want to get another joker you can just sell to the moon
fair enough
god damn
put deja on which one
faceless was before stencil
pray to god
yes me too
not optimal but funny
how the fuck 🥀
Does ankh destroys your joker if you have only 1 of joker? Or leaves alone and creates copy of it?
get me your little brother
how are you grokung it this far
my deckk fixing is kinda crazy tho...
The kids meal
the clanker has infiltrated our defences
you dont need a huge hand size for pairslop and you can do dumb shit on white stake anyway
+4 mult
BOY DO I WISH I HAD ENOUGH (i have 6)
Automod
+2 mult for each bot banned.
Free win
still take?
take
greeb
GODSAMN
so
what was the point of asking the question if you're just gonna do your own thing anyways
ionno
comes with chips prepackaged
egg swash vs midas vamp
i had a run that my deck was so cursed because of spectrals and taorts that there were only like 5 or 9 diamonds
I wouldnt even call a deck fix.
its gold stake bro
what do you want from me
is deckfixing in the same room with us
yo i SWEAR my deck fixing is fire for gold tho?
it's good enough
literally hanging on by threads but the deck still looking clean as ever
Do it better, what other?
this deck so fixed
its okay
im not taking this slander from someone who isnt top 100
Well
what do i be do
give the obelisk?
Ok, do it better
ew
check the seed is it blueprint
3 blue seals and 4 gold cards is enough
yes
whats the boss
and didnt get obelisk
blueprint maybe
ionno
Ahem... anyways
only reason i scored 100k last time was because of holographic kings
Well
dna actually makes it so you can only draw 7's until your first hand is palyed
what is a mann what has he donee
no chips :( 🍟
I-
you're supposed to cook the plant, not the other way around
dummy
ggs
goated
gorsh
cool my blue seal is now steel
"gorsh" tf do that mean bro
Skip all big blind and small blind challenge completed
bro got the worst one
i can see that with
photochad
photo photo chad chad photo
I LIVED
okay no crimson fart lowk scary too
should i play balance deck
DW ABOUT IT
its hard actually
get 5 foils
win
well not on white stake actually
still can't beat that time i lost against violet vessel 6 score under
which im on
gl getting a seamless learning curve on plasma
shore
carp shard
card shark
i've always had a soft spot for card sharp bro
this would have been such an easy win 😭
sell carto?
car shart is gonna be a bugger on pairless
mid start definetaly
I'm winning now
whats wrong with it
i can't wait to make another blue seal!
ohhh painted
why so blue
wdym just sell carto tho?
should've sold hex to get indirect erosion value
._.
what
first ever blue stake down 
grim from 6 and i get this
Should I take Burglar?
hey uh
hi
whats that behind your win screen
Yeah I forgor
trio cavendish
here, win
was yorick but sold him bc i got him ante 7 and couldnt play for it
had 22 cards
oh
pairslop coded jonkler
why
trading card
oh
since ante 1
i see
do i make another glass 8 or a purple king
but hes MY pairslop joker
worst luck like deck building wise
hey your back yo whyd you not sell carto
dw we ALL love him
technically still doable for an x3 finish unless you need specific cards for all 4 hands
anyway propably king cause death is like dna but better
for what
gg
brainstorm
we brought the run back
o
after winning a boss by 1k
fotocad
I definitely would
i never needed it in the first place
the formidable vessel
what do i do
free chips from blue
was playing 3oak so i mean ig but 2 discards a round and 1 had to be used on trading card
They're giving me options now ❤️🩹
104 chips
102
so free
a certain someone came up 👀
do you guys think the game hates me if it has given me 4 souls in the last 3 runs, but has made me lose immediately after
well usually its more like
how to counter him bro
80 somehting
What Xmult would you want today ?
skill issue perchance
even 50 from foil is good
wait didnt you wanna play multiplayer
its gonna be 98 after ive fed all my 6's to 6th sense
Oh right
Blackboard, please
We forgor
one wrong answer here
i had a perfect joker loudout each time for ante 4/5, and then it gives me none of the cards i need 😭
Tho I can't right now
the only seed i play if i do a seeded run. the magic finally came.
W
trading card wasn't needed if you were down to 22 discards as you see your entire deck when you were down to 35 cards
its more than enough trust me, its on my top 10
it didn't matter so oh well
all this to do worse than an uncommon and rare
STOP
wait actually how much is this scoring
i got it ante 1 idrk what ur trying to say
I'm not taking it
game feeding you pairslop today
trading card gone
photograph early is really not that good. If you don't have hanging chad or any other retrigger or a really high level hand it's only a jimbo in the best cases.
which are...?
baron mime lol
yeah,
im saying trading card doesn't force you to discard or keep for its benefits the entire run
after n failures of orange stake
