2 pairs are much easier than 3 oak

from the base deck

[flat tiger]

exactly, +3 is too little

by the time you can reliably do 3oak you are very unlikly to be worrying about flat mult

[echo sphinx]

h m

@stone shell what if we add 3 chips to it

[flat tiger]

imo it wont be balanced if you want to keep the 3 theme, 3 chip 3 mult is really not adding much

venus give a lot of chips too

i mean not a lot a lot but a lot if you get what i mean

[echo sphinx]

thonk

@stone shell what if we add 0.03x

common joker scaling xmult feels a bit lol

[flat tiger]

10 hands for 0.3X

[knotty zodiac]

+6 mult on hands containing 3oak
-1 mult on other hands

[flat tiger]

0.3X on 3oak, -0.1 on other hands

[tender quarry]

+3 seems fine tbh, I don't think the entry point for playing 3oak is quite as high as made out and having a (reasonably) fast scaling +mult is relevant for quite a while

[echo sphinx]

its high lol

[flat tiger]

you wont be able to stack it without fixing, by the time you fix enough you dont need the +mult

[echo sphinx]

with the starting hand, to draw a 3oak theres a 2 in (card in deck) chance of it

[tender quarry]

The other benefit here is that you don't necessarily have to hit a 3oak every time early

[tender quarry]

The second part of this is just not right

[echo sphinx]

tho i guess becaues its yet another common +mult joker, syn's "two cakes" take is valid

[pallid galleon]

W perky

[flat tiger]

you survive long enough to fix the deck for 3oak, and you suddenly need the flat mult?

[tender quarry]

Like if it hits +50 towards the end then that's a big score increase regardless of anything else

[flat tiger]

you will be lucky to hit 10 3oak if you get it ante 1

[tender quarry]

Yes because it's scaling and hits high numbers

[knotty zodiac]

it scales kinda like runner, opportunistically. and it discourages pairs

[echo sphinx]

u kinda forgetting how weak the planet is by comparison

[tender quarry]

Assuming like Yellow deck you can just go for another hand if you miss and survive anyway a lot like how you do with spare trousers or runner

Assuming another deck

[echo sphinx]

its not exactly Saturn strong

[tender quarry]

You don't need the deck manip as much to make it reliable

[flat tiger]

but I guess if you play 3oak every chance you get it may be runner level

[knotty zodiac]

hc hc hc 3oak etc

[tender quarry]

This is how it goes really

[flat tiger]

just call the joker "3" and nothing else

[echo sphinx]

god i must tak

BUT FOR WHATT

[flat tiger]

mask

[tender quarry]

You discard for 3oak, unlucky didn't hit it, guess I'll just play my pairs

[echo sphinx]

skip

[echo sphinx]

i need more golde

and sticker

if i take it i acnt sticker a thing

[knotty zodiac]

how many nongolden faces left

[echo sphinx]

a lot

i just took it

[flat tiger]

i mean blueprint campfire is more likely then not enough anyway

and you have 104 saved up

[knotty zodiac]

you dont really need blackboard with campfire bp midas

just scale the money and go nuts on campfire

[echo sphinx]

hell ye

[tender quarry]

I consider fist sell if you have a significant number of planet levels

But if not then no sell

[echo sphinx]

i odnt have planet levels om

i forgot to copy fist and lost

again

[knotty zodiac]

noooo

[flat tiger]

guess which planet i want

[echo sphinx]

[knotty zodiac]

[echo sphinx]

bootstraps and flash card seems a bit int

[knotty zodiac]

[echo sphinx]

[dire sage]

[echo sphinx]

[knotty zodiac]

oh wow

u did good

[echo sphinx]

and one of them is glass joker

yeah theres no shot

if i see one i will sob

[naive frigate]

Genuine question how do you even get so much enchanted jokers so early

[pastel pagoda]

wheel

[echo sphinx]

PURE LUCKKK

[pastel pagoda]

just jokers that naturally have editions

[naive frigate]

I got like 1 on ante 11

[echo sphinx]

ok but that build is ridiculous

why u complaining lol

[pastel pagoda]

Editions other than negative barely do anything on antes this high

[naive frigate]

No cuz idk if i swap out baron for paraibolia

[echo sphinx]

u skip parei

[pastel pagoda]

Why

It doesnt do anything for your build

Barely

[echo sphinx]

your build wants kings and queens specifically

[naive frigate]

Ok

[knotty zodiac]

found a parei lover 🔥

[flat tiger]

i mean your whole goal is getting stickers instead of keeping your win rate no?

[naive frigate]

Is ts good

[dire sage]

empty house

[naive frigate]

Damn how tf do i have full house on lvl 1

[deft sandal]

Oh I love campfire on gold stake

[knotty zodiac]

u did good! full house sucks xD

[deft sandal]

just free scaling from rental

[plain nimbus]

Sell the campfire for campfire value

[turbid nova]

Full house is goated

[dire sage]

high priestess in jumbo arcana

[flat tiger]

this early and a rental I would have doubts

[pastel pagoda]

Sell voucher for blue stake value

[turbid nova]

With Campfire you can buy and sell rentals right away

For no cost

[deft sandal]

Oh thanks for the advice

[flat tiger]

yes but the campfire still suck $3 per round and you dont get to buy sell that much early thanks to no reroll money

[plain nimbus]

You're welcome

[turbid nova]

Oh I didn’t see it

[deft sandal]

I have econ source tho and discard voucher, so it isn't really a problem

[dire sage]

oh sell the rental campfire then

it's asking too much money of you

[echo sphinx]

me when rental

[flat tiger]

ante 2 Xmult is not that great anyway

[dire sage]

xmult sucks early game

[naive frigate]

Holy fucking shit 😭

[flat tiger]

if its clean then sure

[dire sage]

unless you have something like gros michel

[deft sandal]

Michael you so gross

[knotty zodiac]

[naive frigate]

Yeah so what the fuck

[pure schooner]

Negative buisness card

[naive frigate]

That's the end of the line for me

[deft sandal]

SYNERGY

[fathom pagoda]

A card can hold one each of Enhancement, Seal, and Edition.

[flat tiger]

I HATE BIG MIKE WHEN IT DOESNT BREAK, or instant break ante 1 when I still need it

[knotty zodiac]

ya its ~10x every ante

[deft sandal]

that's your problem then ig

[naive frigate]

The fuck am i even suposed to do\

This more bullshit than cloverpit scaling

[knotty zodiac]

sry i dont make the rules, those are the only 2 modes

[pure schooner]

okay someone know how tf do i undo this

[naive frigate]

Undo what vro

[pure schooner]

My hand size

[naive frigate]

You don't

[pure schooner]

Its 6 its supposed to be 8

[plain nimbus]

The game isnt really intended for endless there is like only a few build that can go far in endless

[flat tiger]

banana not break annoyings me more then having to play pairs

[pure schooner]

So my goated double bp run is desd js because

[naive frigate]

[naive frigate]

Thanks i'll use it when i will have more jokers unlocked cuz im a bum currently

[echo sphinx]

8x ing the planet hand seems lol

[flat tiger]

both are common and is one of the strongest combo?

[knotty zodiac]

add red glass

[flat tiger]

so you naturally get them a lot

[echo sphinx]

oh true

[knotty zodiac]

red glass number works just fine on plant

[plain nimbus]

U can get away with plant with photochad

[naive frigate]

Yeah im like fried

[echo sphinx]

is it even photochad anymore if glasschad is doing the same

[flat tiger]

photo will be 3 more X2 and 4 more if red seal

[pastel pagoda]

Pretty sure thats doable no?

I think you had a red seal jack

[plain nimbus]

Not really but its only for one round and the real build is photochad

[naive frigate]

Yeah it is

I just got a four of a kind with queens

[knotty zodiac]

photo is like free unbreakable glass on your face cards (limit one per hand)

[naive frigate]

Not sure how jack is going to help when it's king queens build

[plain nimbus]

U had a strength

[naive frigate]

What

[echo sphinx]

[pastel pagoda]

The tarot card

[naive frigate]

[plain nimbus]

Yup

[pastel pagoda]

Yeah

[flat tiger]

[pastel pagoda]

Not sure if you need to

[naive frigate]

Imagine its going to be all face cards are debuffed

[naive frigate]

I mean do i skip the big blind tho

[flat tiger]

[naive frigate]

75

[flat tiger]

well thats good then

[echo sphinx]

[naive frigate]

Like

[echo sphinx]

so i wont take

[plain nimbus]

2 much i guess

[pastel pagoda]

WHY

[plain nimbus]

For the feel of it

[naive frigate]

Cuz i got sickass buffs

That got me to this point

[pastel pagoda]

3 levels in two pair arent worth it

[naive frigate]

One of the tags got me a legendary joker so i ain't complaining

[echo sphinx]

[spark kernel]

Im going to kill you jimbo

[echo sphinx]

[pallid galleon]

stonks 🔥 🔥 🔥

[echo sphinx]

[naive frigate]

Now let's just pray for four of a kind with kings/queens

[knotty zodiac]

[knotty zodiac]

gg

[naive frigate]

Nah i'll live

[deft sandal]

what a cute couple, surely one of them won't be burned for campfire

[naive frigate]

Four of a kind gives me more than five of a kind so i got four of a kind flush

[knotty zodiac]

wherefore are you todd

[flat tiger]

BURN BOTH

[echo sphinx]

lol

[naive frigate]

Oh my son

Just 40m 💔

[deft sandal]

yes i did

[echo sphinx]

5oak wouldve beat this

[pastel pagoda]

thats what you get for skipping too much

[naive frigate]

My 5oak gave me 16 multiplier

And like

[echo sphinx]

how much is 4oak

[naive frigate]

The 4oak flush was double that

[night cradle]

Madness

[echo sphinx]

4oak is worse

[naive frigate]

Fuh

[echo sphinx]

it needs to be 4x better to be on top

[naive frigate]

Its fine tho

[echo sphinx]

cuz of triblulet sock

[flat tiger]

getting 1 more X2 is better then any planet level you can get

[naive frigate]

Y'all could've warned me here

💔

[echo sphinx]

sorry gng

[naive frigate]

DAMN

[echo sphinx]

nice

[knotty zodiac]

[echo sphinx]

noice

[echo sphinx]

LOL

[naive frigate]

Isn't that lowk ass

[flat tiger]

it is good until you realize you dont really see him that much

[knotty zodiac]

250 chips is a lot

[echo sphinx]

250 chips is nothing to sneeze at

[dire sage]

stuntman is broken with the right build

[echo sphinx]

if you see it early

[naive frigate]

Oh hey i got a voucher for reaching ante 12

[flat tiger]

you mean pairs? lol

[naive frigate]

Bet there's isn't one for ante 13

[echo sphinx]

you can take it and find a real build in the background

[echo sphinx]

me when milestone

[knotty zodiac]

stuntman prefers HC

[dire sage]

HC is so funny like it's either useless or the most broken hand in the game

[naive frigate]

What is hc even

https://klipy.com/gifs/balatro-monkey-wunkus-gaming

mfw monkey plays better than u

[naive frigate]

His small blind is 1200 what are you talking about

[flat tiger]

"playing" a vid is still playing I guess

[fathom pagoda]

Nah, clearly the monkey has ascended to the point of playing the game telepathically

[dire sage]

if you have infinite monkeys, one of them is guaranteed to have a naneinf build and make it

[knotty zodiac]

infinite monkeys with iphones

[naive frigate]

If you have infinite monkeys infinite of them are guaranteed to have a naneif build

[dire sage]

but that infinity is smaller than the other infinity, how does that happen 🤯

[naive frigate]

Infinity is not a number its a ocncept

[pallid galleon]

credit card my goat

[knotty zodiac]

also in retrospect, if i scaled red card one more instead of fishing for a strength, it would have been ok

but no way to know that

[near basalt]

Wanna know what better than two 👀

[rustic haven]

4 bull

[near basalt]

[rustic haven]

its exponential

It's Hearts and Clubs :D

[woven hare]

perché no me when certificate of authenticity

[woven hare]

its steven n todd

[patent sail]

yeah so that translates to "February 31st"

[tender quarry]

This reminds me of the existence of #🕹・run-discussion

[woven hare]

shit gotago bya chat love yuoure

[tender quarry]

Why does #🕹・run-discussion exist

[rigid glen]

gimp aleart

[patent sail]

to discuss runs

[tender quarry]

But no one does they just post a screenshot and move on

All the run discussion happens when they post one here

[shell dagger]

is this necessary

[knotty zodiac]

sometimes it's helpful when #game-discussion is going 30+ messages/minute, runs get buried

[rigid glen]

1000%

[shell dagger]

why

I don’t get it

[rustic haven]

i love hung men

i mean hanged men

man

[gaunt burrow]

goodbye cloudnine

[hardy jackal]

what

[rustic haven]

[shell dagger]

can you explain?

[molten thicket]

game discussion 2

[hardy jackal]

what is happening

[rigid glen]

holy shit mega gimp

[rustic haven]

?

[tender quarry]

Game discussion 2 but no one discusses the game and also no one discusses the runs

[fair flower]

But the econ D:

[patent sail]

what if there was a joker that does things

[rustic haven]

do you only bring up peoples profiles?

[rigid glen]

the smell is unbearable

[brave goblet]

[patent sail]

that would be epic i think

[hardy jackal]

like the software?

[noble mango]

Helo

[shell dagger]

you cant smell people through a screen haha

[rustic haven]

hi jello!

[shell dagger]

don’t be silly

[noble mango]

Heya :3

[fair flower]

Gimp > Photoshop

[fringe nebula]

it's not a place to discuss. it's a place to share runs

[patent sail]

this chat is anything but discussing the game

[rigid glen]

gold_256

[noble mango]

Im trya draw this shit but my 1 hour balatro theme ended

[knotty zodiac]

run-discussion is supposed to be run-help but the latency is pretty high so it's a bit self defeating

[hardy jackal]

thank you kind stranger

[noble mango]

And my lineart looks like shit

[fair flower]

8 ball

[tender quarry]

And this is why we need pictures of runs to keep us on track sometimes

[fringe nebula]

card sharp is bad because it's hard to play 2 full houses in 1 round

[shell dagger]

or 3 flushes

[gaunt burrow]

2$ is not worth it

i love egg

[patent sail]

card sharp is bad because it doesnt get you epic Roffle naneinf

[knotty zodiac]

card sharp is bad bc it doesn work on golden needle

we're so goddamn goated

[noble mango]

Needlein

[digital pewter]

i got a complete match in 2 guesses

[molten thicket]

bcs like no one checks run discussion

[fringe nebula]

wxcept me

I do check #🕹・run-discussion

[fair flower]

What kind of joker is that?

[tender quarry]

Card sharp is bad because cards are not very sharp actually they have quite rounded edges in fact

[rustic haven]

whats this called again?

[knotty zodiac]

varv is the best

[patent sail]

i mean iunno man pixels do look pretty sharp

[noble mango]

Card sharp is bad because the joker looks like a bad guy

[fringe nebula]

lilo too ig

[digital pewter]

oh it's the ||SIIIIIIKE|| joker

[fair flower]

Steel/gold cards?

[shell dagger]

glass cards sound sharp

[digital pewter]

im not letting you guys get free balatrodle wins

you will guess your jokers and you will like it

[tranquil cedar]

files joker

[molten thicket]

i got it in 3 ✌️

[shell dagger]

from this screenshot I think it’s unlikely that the joker is egg

bc you wouldn’t scribble so much

unless you did and you’re playing mind games with us

[molten thicket]

HEY

[knotty zodiac]

if you're too lazy to do balatrodle, here's the solution: ||just do the balatrodle||

[shell dagger]

ok yeah

[fringe nebula]

[tender quarry]

What exactly is the logic behind glass cards the entire point of a card is to not show your opponents what you have

[gaunt burrow]

shit

[rustic haven]

dayum

[noble mango]

Put spoiler tag

[digital pewter]

all that scribbling just to have it revealed a minute later lmao

[shell dagger]

true.. face down cards must be the best

[fringe nebula]

you absolute buffoon

[patent sail]

it was a skribbled joker!

[knotty zodiac]

the balatrodle share screen should not disclose today's answer. wonder if the dev reads this chat

[gaunt burrow]

sorry

[digital pewter]

this is a crime unforgivable. you will hereby be banished for the remainder of your pitiful days.

[noble mango]

You fool

[woven hare]

hi cgat

[knotty zodiac]

#server-chat-2

[patent sail]

why have #🃏・off-topic when #🕹・game-discussion exists

[tender quarry]

More like #🕹・game-discussion 2

[noble mango]

Bored of balatro so that's thing ig

Also cryptid eventually ran out

[fringe nebula]

I just taught a kid that (÷2 x10) is faster than (x5)

[echo sphinx]

run discussion a bit dead in the water lol

[woven hare]

bro can duplicate cards

[knotty zodiac]

i think my mental math is a bit sharper after playing this game

[strong pier]

I've won my first run
Dna is pretty cool

[patent sail]

now teach him that X1.5 retriggered a lot is probably better than

something idk

[noble mango]

The water?!?!?

Is that a balatro reference

You have no discards

[shell dagger]

balatro endless mode at least can teach you how fast some functions grow

[fair flower]

Nice! You can try taking it to endless and see how far you can go

[noble mango]

Anyways when will Pair Pairadise be an actual challenge deck

[knotty zodiac]

1.5^3 = 3.375
75*4 = 300

good stuff

[noble mango]

Yall
Recommend me a Baltro mod or Balatroey game

I kinda hate 5 as a number tbh

if someone ask me what is 15 x 6, I would turn it into 30 x 3

[knotty zodiac]

i prefer on mobile but it plays well on steam too

[echo sphinx]

both is good

tho mobile is a bit. hm

[noble mango]

Oh boy that horrorey card game

[echo sphinx]

every once in a while i "click" a card

[knotty zodiac]

its much more tactile

[echo sphinx]

and that sell button pops up on the hologram

[fair flower]

Oh my bad, also 4 million is pretty good if you're just starting out

[echo sphinx]

true

[noble mango]

This looks fun

[echo sphinx]

it gets me dragging cards in pc after every session and forget why i cant do it

[echo sphinx]

whot

[knotty zodiac]

it's 95% drafting

[noble mango]

Wait is that it

[fair flower]

Ye it's peak, except the middle game

[tender quarry]

Luck be a Landlord was like a primary inspiration for Balatro

[noble mango]

I should try

[molten thicket]

isn't that game the main inspiration for balatro

[knotty zodiac]

it is

[noble mango]

Pair o Pears

[woven hare]

boo evil sell buttom

[echo sphinx]

this and abaltro is diabolical

[tender quarry]

Anyway I’ll throw wildfrost into the mix since people are recommending games

[woven hare]

Abaltro seems like a peak game

[echo sphinx]

[noble mango]

Teto?!?!!

[strong pier]

Whats abaltro

[molten thicket]

hey how much better is sts2 from sts

[echo sphinx]

no idea

[molten thicket]

and is it worth it

[echo sphinx]

sts2 actually cares about surviving

[tender quarry]

Depending on who you ask, it’s more of the same, a bit better, or a lot worse

[echo sphinx]

i have been goofing about a lot and did not win a single run

[knotty zodiac]

if you get it, send me your first win. they have lots of v cool builds

[shell dagger]

i fear if i start playing sts that’ll be another 1000 hours gone

[echo sphinx]

at least its super fun watching shit go downkill

[knotty zodiac]

I just played STS2 multiplayer for the first time

today

[echo sphinx]

oh shit

[shell dagger]

isn’t it still in EA?

[echo sphinx]

sts2

[knotty zodiac]

really polished experience

[noble mango]

Downkill?!?!

Ultrakill?!?!?

[tender quarry]

Yep 🙂

[echo sphinx]

i need more sts2 multiplayer

[shell dagger]

that’s promising then

[echo sphinx]

@knotty zodiac pls be my teammate

i promise i wont transform my deck into random cards

[noble mango]

Man i wish There's a joker that

Creates the last Horse card played

[molten thicket]

i didn't quite get hooked on sts after like 20hrs spent so im prob passing on sts2

[shell dagger]

hades 2 early access released with arguably as much content as hades 1 full release

[knotty zodiac]

ya we should try

[echo sphinx]

which class is silly

[tender quarry]

I think it’s objectively worse balanced and presumably worse to grind (but maybe I haven’t grinded quite enough to comment there, haven’t tried a10 streaks yet)

[echo sphinx]

ive been ironcladmaxxing

[tender quarry]

But there’s more content and the content that does exist is very fun

So it depends what you value really

The new characters are cool

[molten thicket]

hm i should try hades 2 i really enjoyed hades

[knotty zodiac]

regent is fun. i like their sword, it's like ceremonial dagger. you just keep charging it up

[tender quarry]

And there’s a lot more personality (not that there wasn’t a good amount in the first)

[noble mango]

What would this thing do if it was a joker

[echo sphinx]

lol

[fair flower]

Indie games are just getting bigger and bigger. Silksong is like a 50 hour game, idk how long Hades is

[shell dagger]

it didn’t click with me like h1 did but tbf h1 released during covid and i was a young lad with no time commitments

[echo sphinx]

league players

[shell dagger]

still have 200 hours or so

[noble mango]

Agreed

[echo sphinx]

indie games stopped being indie after like undertale

tho i will still call them indies

[strong pier]

Susnut

[fringe nebula]

I have a friend who uninstalled league of legend

he's so much happier now

[knotty zodiac]

is hades 2 deeper in choices than hades 1? hades 1 has cool story but idk about build variety. most of my runs feel v similar

[noble mango]

What's the definition of indie

[echo sphinx]

small group making a thing is indie enough to me

[fair flower]

They're still made by independent studios

[noble mango]

India?

[cloud sinew]

hades and hades 2 are each ~100 hours for 100%

[molten thicket]

hades was really entertaining to play

[strong pier]

I still play lol
But only because they have for fun gamemodes with roguelike type of upgrades

[molten thicket]

shield my beloved

[shell dagger]

i think there’s more variety? yeah h1 was incredibly dash strike and cast focused

[tender quarry]

Rougelikes are cheating in the “time to 100%” category tbf

[echo sphinx]

next you're gonna tell me minecraft is made by an independent organization

[fair flower]

Goddamn who needs AAA games anymore

[ancient gyro]

gta5

[fair flower]

It was made as an independent project but got bought out by Microsoft

[knotty zodiac]

no one. gamers eatin good

[noble mango]

Idk even

Like the entire steam thing is mostly indie game no?

[echo sphinx]

mmm

[echo sphinx]

true steam is also indie

[fair flower]

Ye because the barrier of entry to publish a game on steam is pretty low

So a lot of solo game devs can publish their games there

[echo sphinx]

even now steam is still indie om

-# if only they could count to 3

[knotty zodiac]

steam has some aaa titles but ya mostly indie

[fringe nebula]

ez win

[noble mango]

Actually Ass A Games

[fringe nebula]

except if you get bad crimson heart hits

[fair flower]

Doom and Metal Gear tho

And Resident Evil

[echo sphinx]

constellation swashbuckler

oh lwad

[fair flower]

And from soft games

[noble mango]

Red ded redemption is an indie game no?

[fringe nebula]

I'm starting to think that crimson heart is harder than vessel at this point

[fair flower]

Yeah it was made by some random dude in his basement

Crazy what a little bit of crack does to the human brain

[shell dagger]

gta 6 is my favourite upcoming indie

[knotty zodiac]

i prefer nba 2k28

[tender quarry]

Have you guys heard of this niche hidden indie gem “The Witcher”

[noble mango]

Eh i still like Team fort 2

[molten thicket]

it fools you with the low blind req then strikes when your guard is low

[fair flower]

Tea Fort too

[molten thicket]

truly the evilest of them all

[echo sphinx]

could agree

[noble mango]

T 4 2

[fair flower]

It is, cause especially if you have dusk in your line up

[echo sphinx]

id say they're the same

cuz one bricks scoring and one is a vertical spike

[fringe nebula]

flashback

[molten thicket]

man i really hope crimson gets reworked or smth

[knotty zodiac]

if crimson hits a 3x every time, it's as hard as vv. it doesn't usually but it can get pretty close

[echo sphinx]

i think crimson heart is fine as is

[shell dagger]

tbh I’d rather acorn gets buffed

[noble mango]

Agreed

[knotty zodiac]

acorn hold trick needs to be patched out

[shell dagger]

crimson heart can be unfair on pair runs but the game is a deck builder after all

[echo sphinx]

crimson heart difficulty is inflated by pairslop meta

[molten thicket]

it just feels really unfair when it bricks you and there's nothing you can do

[noble mango]

That's pretty much enough buff

[woven hare]

what does he even do

[tender quarry]

Vessel is much harder than Heart, but I’m worried about Heart for longer than I’m worried about Vessel

[echo sphinx]

pairslop is more dependent on scoring jokers than other hands

[noble mango]

What

[fringe nebula]

read the screenshot above

[molten thicket]

i like the concept of acorn but its difficulty needs to be higher

[fair flower]

Enginenear
Deadman
Plier
Scoot
Solider
Mydick
Supper
Pie
Hoofy

[woven hare]

-# its a meme

[knotty zodiac]

i think itd also be interesting if every hand played, it randomly swapped two jokers

[noble mango]

Vessel isn't hard if you consistently set the kitchen on fire just by touching your high card play hand key

[molten thicket]

the blinds that force you to actually think about how to score are pretty peak

[patent sail]

FUCK i rerolled mime accidentally

[echo sphinx]

lol literally free

[fair flower]

It'll come back around

[woven hare]

then theres the others that fuck you

[patent sail]

it appeared in shop right after i bought overstock and was gonna reroll immideately

i didnt think mime would appear

[knotty zodiac]

is it possible to make cerulean harder for easy hands?

[woven hare]

just play in x.5 smh

[molten thicket]

i mean having boss blinds that counter certain builds and plays are fine

great even

[noble mango]

It's crazy how
They become a team
Of mentally deranged people

[woven hare]

bell's a run killer forbsome hands and not others and thats ok

[knotty zodiac]

buffed cerulean- hands with non scoring cards are not allowed

[fair flower]

Select 2 cards instead of 1 ig
But high card would still sweep

[molten thicket]

but i don't like ones that can kill you with rng like crimson

[woven hare]

that would just buff high card

[fair flower]

Yeah

[shell dagger]

hurts 4oak even more

[patent sail]

tbh lately ive been getting a lot of ante 8 barons and ive been getting away with it

[noble mango]

What if Every time you play a hand

It selects one more card

[woven hare]

keep bell how it is !!!

[cloud sinew]

i dont think bell really needs a change, 1.1 pushing higher hands will make bell harder inherently

[woven hare]

thats what im sayin

[fair flower]

Amber acorn needs a buff imo

[molten thicket]

like 70% of the time it doesn't do anything but on that 1 run it kills you

[echo sphinx]

violet vessel is hard because its scoring requirement is different (and way higher)

[fringe nebula]

does verdant leaf need a buff?

[woven hare]

runkiller frfr :trol:

[echo sphinx]

if a run's scoring per hand is like 200k

it dies to violet without some emergencies

[molten thicket]

what does verdant leaf do

[noble mango]

What if amber acorn doesn't let you select a joker

And turns off all those +mult xmult + chips or shaking shenanigans

[echo sphinx]

played card effects

[fringe nebula]

barime & taking 5 eternals

[woven hare]

kill complete sets

[knotty zodiac]

it's -3 cards seen. noticeable hit but prob not fatal?

[cloud sinew]

i think verdant is fine as is because on score will get stronger as hands that score more cards will be better in 1.1, at least thats the goal

[echo sphinx]

it blocks every played card from proccing

[fringe nebula]

verdant leaf can counter photochad ig

[molten thicket]

that's like really specific

[fringe nebula]

if al of your jokers are eternals

[noble mango]

Absolutely nothing

If you have joekr lineup that doesn't care about your card played

[noble mango]

Absolutely yes

[shell dagger]

but rn if you get a bad card selected you can still play the 4oak

[echo sphinx]

it also counters ancient joker ig

[tender quarry]

I do think it’s not great that verdant leaf is almost a strict downgrade from crimson heart outside of edge cases

[woven hare]

keep the blinds how they are and nerf acorn

[echo sphinx]

but in order to counter the lineup must have either all jokers be load bearing or all eternal

[tender quarry]

So more distinction could be warranted there

[knotty zodiac]

verdant is kinda buzzkill. on score is more fun than unconditional mult

[patent sail]

i accidentally rerolled mime on this setup 🥀🥀🥀🥀

[fair flower]

Shuffle/disable jokers every half second until you play a hand. That way you gotta time your hand perfectly

[echo sphinx]

nah

[noble mango]

Crimson heart lets you keep the joket

Leaf : Nuh uh it's gone

[echo sphinx]

they couldn't be more different lol

[cloud sinew]

leaf is optional most of the time

[fair flower]

And also no flipping

[shell dagger]

while funny this is definitely not happening

[tender quarry]

Doesn’t matter it’s ante 8 boss

[echo sphinx]

this is not happening lol

[molten thicket]

verdant leaf is just there ig it doesn't really do miuch

[noble mango]

If you're not endlessing ig

[echo sphinx]

if amber acorn affects the playing cards then uhhhh idk

[fair flower]

A man could dream

[tender quarry]

The game isn’t balanced around endless, and even if it was then they should be distinct in ante 8 too

[echo sphinx]

if you really want amber acorn to be painful

[shell dagger]

it’s funny how the hardest endless finisher is acorn tho

[cloud sinew]

balance arguments dont really matter for endless anyway, the game is designed around ante 8 first

[noble mango]

What if acorn shuffles the jokers in the most unoptimal way

By sending them back to the shop

[echo sphinx]

remove the part where the joker cards are flipped
and instead pin 3 jokers

[woven hare]

wdym

[echo sphinx]

like. Pinned

cant swap

[molten thicket]

the hardest endless finisher is nothing they're all free

[shell dagger]

you haven’t tried ante 24 acorn

[patent sail]

is cav dead now
