[broken abyss]

is 1k

[humble gulch]

Bro

[broken abyss]

right there lmao

[bright cosmos]

2640 wow

[dire sage]

110x24=2640 yes

[broken abyss]

the math is not hard to do, 50*20 is 1k alone.

[bright cosmos]

Yay anotermercury

Now pair is level 4

On ante 2

[dire sage]

PCCITBP

[foggy pond]

How when I have all eternal jokers and boss is Verdant Leaf?

[pallid galleon]

i tried doing the bean bug again on ante 24 but i dont think anything happened

so i must have done it wrong

[bright cosmos]

Negative tag? Also I upgraded to three of a kind cuz that’s more chips and mult now

[fiery nymph]

that wasnt the problem for endless

i had like

a lot more hands to work with

just obelisks dont score enough

or scale enough

[bright cosmos]

Ima just do the small blind

No tag needed

[fiery nymph]

dont skip after ante 1

[bright cosmos]

Ok

[fiery nymph]

you lose interest, a shop, and more

for a single negative it isnt worth it

[mortal nimbus]

sometimes skipping is the correct play, this is definitely not one of those times

[fiery nymph]

if you have double tags

sure

[dire sage]

kid named anaglyph deck:

[fiery nymph]

but without them i cant find situation

[mortal nimbus]

even without, there are legitimate reasons to use a skip tag

[fiery nymph]

in ante 1 sure

[mortal nimbus]

Ancient joker needs to be lined up

[fiery nymph]

after that its a waste!

oh

[mortal nimbus]

Boss rerolls

[fiery nymph]

sure i guess

[dire sage]

the pillar needs you to skip blinds

[serene forge]

"it's all fun and games until you hit the inevitable point" my brother in christ literally nothing in endless works except for braindead xmult retrigger strats

[fiery nymph]

no i doesnt!

[fiery nymph]

you lose in scoring before you lose obelisk hands

😭

[serene forge]

no it does not

[bright cosmos]

I think i skip

[mortal nimbus]

not saying it's good, but there absolutely scenarios where skipping is the correct play over taking the shop. Typically because skipping in these scenarios helps in the short term to not lose where the shop or an extra $6 wouldn't. Rarely is this due to the actually skip tag itself though. The skipping is more important .

[serene forge]

negative is still awful on anaglyph

the thing is

anaglyph actually makes some tags quite good

negative is not one of them

[dire sage]

why tho? it's useful against stuff like crimson heart and verdant leaf

[serene forge]

you should not be going against leaf with 5 jokers that all rely on card effects

[pale wolf]

😀

[serene forge]

world's first parei usecase

[bright cosmos]

Ima medium the 8 of clubs

[bright cosmos]

The half hater is here

Rip

[stable mulch]

[pale wolf]

fk i wasted a hand at the beginnjng

[versed sable]

play the glass and pray

[stable mulch]

about that

i WAS gonna play the glass

i played the glass and 2 other cards just to get rid of em

turns out it played some random debuffed card

[humble gulch]

I feel overwhelmed

[versed sable]

okay i guess i'll stop doing balatro for the evening

my phone screen is painfully hot to touch

[willow frost]

[pallid galleon]

[dusty zenith]

I dont play gd but I heard 2.2 was an incredible update and was worth the wait

[rustic haven]

W!

[rustic haven]

[humble gulch]

Imagine anaglyph but you start with a double tag

(I know it's op)

[rustic haven]

[fringe nebula]

most newbies haven't learned how to work around boss blinds

[peak crest]

[tidal jewel]

XD

[ancient gyro]

remember when someone here said plant counters midas mask

[shrewd tangle]

😭

[peak crest]

genius

[zinc sigil]

How do I cook a royal flush build that oneshots everything

[shrewd tangle]

deck fixing

grab the trading

[zinc sigil]

Yea trading card

Obviosuly

Thats why im asking

I delete everything but a k q j 10

Then what

[ancient gyro]

planets

[zinc sigil]

How do I oneshot vv

[fringe nebula]

turn all of your cards black

[ancient gyro]

pretty straightforward

[zinc sigil]

Thats it

[ancient gyro]

pretty much

[shrewd tangle]

idk you can probably make them all lovers then get a ancient or something

maybe

[zinc sigil]

Alr have smeared

[shrewd tangle]

oh

[solid widget]

oh

whys balatro so fire btw?

[ancient gyro]

literacy test in disguise

[peak crest]

genuinely

good question

[humble gulch]

FUCK YES, TRIB

[shrewd tangle]

i can read but i cant look at images correctly so im blind

[peak crest]

if you asked me why i like this game so much i couldn’t tell you why

[zinc sigil]

So I need to always have hanged man in fool aswell right

[peak crest]

i just like it

[zinc sigil]

I can make it work

Surely

[peak crest]

we have enough chicots to feed you for the rest of your life

[tender quarry]

I like it because it reminds me of gambling and that makes me happy

[fringe nebula]

why do i like balatro?
because it's fun to learn

[shrewd tangle]

i ilke it becuase i can make large numbers

[ancient gyro]

dw smeared will have a resprite next update

[humble gulch]

I only have trib left

[peak crest]

i think

[humble gulch]

I can't get Chicot

[peak crest]

oh right gold stake stickers

[solid widget]

i had to ask bc my friend who pretends to hate the game is wondering

[peak crest]

it genuinely feels like a skillful game and when i win it feels rewarding

and i also like big numbers

and gambling

lucky card my beloved

[shrewd tangle]

naturally

[fringe nebula]

Also, I played bunch of games that were so physically demanding like bullet hell and rhythm games, so balatro is a breath of fresh air

[tender quarry]

Everyone loves gambling

We should all gamble

[shrewd tangle]

the 3 games i mainly play are so vastly different from each other

cs, osu, balatro

😭

[stable mulch]

im assuming joker is better than smiley face?

should i get it

[fringe nebula]

no

[zinc sigil]

Wait you can cheat royal flush

[rustic haven]

heh...

nice

[ancient gyro]

terraria mods

[zinc sigil]

Is this a bug

[stable mulch]

why not? smiley face only applies to face cards, joker applies to all

[shrewd tangle]

you have four fingers

[fringe nebula]

+20 mult from smiley is better than +4

or +25

[peak crest]

you have shortcut and four fingers so you can make straights from essentially nothing now

[rustic haven]

hey hey

i have no antimatter and no ecto

am i cooked

[ancient gyro]

royal flush currently is defined as a 10 low strush currently

[stable mulch]

OH WAIT nvm im stupid, i forgot joker only does 1 tick

[zinc sigil]

You are the only one that got it I think

Reading literacy might be a problem afterall

[ancient gyro]

huh

[zinc sigil]

Its red king black queen black 10 black 10

How is that a royal flush

[peak crest]

you

[zinc sigil]

Obviously that shouldnt happen

[peak crest]

have smeared

[terse dock]

Another one to the counter

[ancient gyro]

ask your 3 jokers you got with you

[zinc sigil]

Its qj10 with the same suit

Thats 3 cards to me

Not 4

[terse dock]

and another 10

[zinc sigil]

It should be a normal straight

Well how does that count

Thats what im saying

[frank grove]

you have smeared

[zinc sigil]

Surely this is a bug

[fringe nebula]

insane inference

[zinc sigil]

If it was a black 9

[terse dock]

brother you have 4 fingers

[zinc sigil]

It say sure

[fringe nebula]

it isnt

[frank grove]

you have 4 fingers and smeared 😭

[zinc sigil]

ITS 3 CARDS IN A ROW NOT 4

[terse dock]

you have a flush and a straight and all of your cards are above 10

[peak crest]

no

it’s not

it’s

king

queen

jack

10

[zinc sigil]

The king isnt same suit

[frank grove]

you have 4 of black cards 😭

[peak crest]

you have 4 fingers and shortcut

[fringe nebula]

4 fingers for the flush, and a kqj10 straight

[terse dock]

yeah but you have a FLUSH and a STRAIGHT

[zinc sigil]

So I can put any black card it doesnt even have to be close?

[peak crest]

brother you have smeared joker

[terse dock]

Yes

[frank grove]

as long as it makes a flush with 4 fingers yes cause of smeared

[peak crest]

so you can skip the ace

[ancient gyro]

4f changes your card conditions so that your str/ush can activate independently from each other

[terse dock]

But then it wouldn't be a royal flush unless its an ace

[zinc sigil]

4 cards that form a straight but only 3 have to match and an exclusive same suit one

That cant be right

[terse dock]

brother when you have like 6 people telling you it is right its probably right

[zinc sigil]

Ohhh

That makes sense

[tender quarry]

Is that thing where royal flush and straight flush are considered different hands for mouth still in the game

[ancient gyro]

uhh

[terse dock]

I dont think so

[humble gulch]

Uhm

[tender quarry]

I remember seeing something about that but I could be wrong and actively spreading misinformation

[zinc sigil]

Well it still feels wrong

[terse dock]

I think that was release exclusive

[ancient gyro]

never once have I encountered this so I'm assuming the issue that never existed has been fixed

[terse dock]

have you considered that you could be wrong

[humble gulch]

I won't be taking it

[fringe nebula]

death king

[zinc sigil]

But I get it , you trigger a hand that is a straight and a hand which is a flush at the same time, which isnt by definition a royal flush but the jokers work that way

[fringe nebula]

or queen

[tender quarry]

Have you ever played straight flush or royal flush on mouth and then needed another hand?

[ancient gyro]

no lol

i think ive had 2 royal strush builds total

[peak crest]

the worst part about checkered deck

is that it tricks me into playing flushes

[tawny palm]

*best

[peak crest]

uh

no

[terse dock]

brother just pivot

[peak crest]

it’s not really worth playing flushes if you don’t have anything that supports that

it works with you and against you at the same time

[tawny palm]

Then support it

[peak crest]

it’s a skill issue on my part yes

[terse dock]

Checkered is a tempo deck

There are 3 types of decks: Tempo, Long term, Black

Yellow? Tempo. Blue? Long term.

[peak crest]

you can’t force it if it’s not showing up

unless you have like

[terse dock]

Despite seeming like a tempo deck, Ghost deck is actually a long term deck.

[peak crest]

a LOT of money

[tawny palm]

I either wing it or reset till I get a good flush set up. Or just a face card set up

[ancient gyro]

i don't think i will

[red sparrow]

What do I sell? Constellation at 1.4 btw

[terse dock]

Zany Joker

[frank grove]

tried this, seems to be fixed i guess

[red sparrow]

Level 17 3oak

[frank grove]

tried it with debug mod, i played a royal flush first and it lets me play another straight flush so its fixed

[terse dock]

you have abstract and a holo golden joker and like 48 mult on your 3oak already

You dont need it

[rustic haven]

wwelp

i got ecto

only took 6 double tags and a skip

😭

[peak crest]

you seem to have decent mult already

especially with a level 17

[cedar sable]

omg salsa from hit game mother 3

[peak crest]

it won’t be doing much

[cedar sable]

anyways

💥

i got kidnapped

[tender quarry]

That’s how it’s intended to work, don’t think it used to work like that in 1.0.0 but good to know it’s fixed now

Thanks for testing

[red sparrow]

I’m heavily reliant on my giant amount of kings of clubs that are bonus and Holo

[frank grove]

no problem yeah that makes sense now

[ancient gyro]

mods can remove existing bugs or create new bugs

[frank grove]

mods can

but so far i havent seen any

[ancient gyro]

in case of regular play testing

comparisons

[frank grove]

since i dont use steammodded and lovely doesnt add any bugs to my knowledge

but i could be wrong

[rustic haven]

wait can i do it?

[peak crest]

you even have holo cards you clearly don’t need the 12 mult

if you want to keep zany

then just keep it it’s your run

but it’s probably what i’d sell

[red sparrow]

I sold it

[rustic haven]

or do i need 3rd copy joker

[ancient gyro]

too early

[rustic haven]

hrm

[red sparrow]

I finally white staked all my unlocked decks

[rustic haven]

fair

[south path]

i just beat gold stake with two polychrome runners, two the duo, erosion, and supernova

[rustic haven]

[south path]

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[south path]

[humble gulch]

[bright cosmos]

I got the copy guy in the first shop

[rustic haven]

i did not

[south path]

look at that guys picture try to copy like enhanced cards like those

they really help a ton

look how much hes scoring

[bright cosmos]

I didn’t haw any enhanced for a while

Look close at the kings some are lucky

[serene forge]

buys showman ante 1
rerolls twice after chaos
is mad that they have no money for anything

[south path]

yes lucky is fine since u had retriggers

[bright cosmos]

I also swapped dna and the smiley a lot to use dna on both

[south path]

retriggers with lucky is nice

[rustic haven]

nat neg bs is wild

[frank grove]

44 people saw this and said "upvote" 😭

[serene forge]

(they used brainstorm mod)

[terse dock]

I feel you harbor hatred within your soul a bit much

[south path]

the real question is why anyone is on reddit rn bro

[rustic haven]

bruh.

[eternal flame]

eight minutes in and he's JUST getting through ante 2

[south path]

top 5 worst apps rn

[frank grove]

why are they doing brainstorm mod runs on yellow deck white stake?

[serene forge]

its not really hatred

just frustration

[bright cosmos]

Hmm…

[serene forge]

well maybe it is hatred

I dunno

[serene forge]

that is a very good question

[frank grove]

what are they looking for 😭

[terse dock]

you ever kill a man with a flintlock pistol

[bright cosmos]

Miku joker…. Playing a hand with only 3 and 9 is plus 39 mult
Is that good

[terse dock]

really strong if its playing

[serene forge]

ok it wasnt brainstorm mod but whatever

[terse dock]

ok if its scoring

[south path]

no bro thats still good with scoring

[frank grove]

this is still weird?

[bright cosmos]

Miku card

[serene forge]

miku joker
playing a full house adds 3.9x scaling

[south path]

actual use for splash now

[bright cosmos]

Yea

[terse dock]

Flower Pot

[serene forge]

yeah looking for early showman is just

what

[south path]

never had a use for showman before but thats because i never get too far in my runs

[bright cosmos]

Hmmm I gotta think of some cool joker ideas for no reason

[serene forge]

showman's use is campfire fuel

[terse dock]

Showman's use is noob bait

[south path]

yes

[bright cosmos]

Showman is a joker

[terse dock]

Sneakers O'Toole (Common)
+20 mult
Always eternal, even on <black stake.

[bright cosmos]

Bro what does a eternal do

[south path]

cant sell

[frank grove]

cannot be sold or destroyed

[south path]

or cant be destroyed

[terse dock]

You cant destroy it or sell it

[bright cosmos]

If that was in the game people like me would just see it and get confused

[south path]

what if you judgement it

or like

riff raff it

[bright cosmos]

Maybe he would be unlocked for beating every white stake idk

[south path]

https://imgur.com/gallery/Arfw4OJ

[terse dock]

Judgement cant spawn stickers

[bright cosmos]

Me after selling the egg I forgot about for 6 antes

[south path]

what

how did that gif work

but my other gifs dont

lol what

[serene forge]

if eternal jokers can't be sold then how are they buyable from a shop

[terse dock]

Klippy probably

[south path]

look at my perms

[terse dock]

Insider trading

[terse dock]

I have one specific saved klippy gif

[serene forge]

tenor is banned

[ancient gyro]

i should make a tier list of all the gs players in this chat based on their skill potency

[frank grove]

good point whos found the loophole and giving me eternal showman in shop one?

[terse dock]

https://klipy.com/gifs/cum-1

[south path]

oh

https://imgur.com/gallery/Arfw4OJ

[terse dock]

,

[bright cosmos]

New idea:
freddy fazjoker
Every 5th card scored is scored 3 more times then destroyed

[serene forge]

you should do an andy tierlist tierlist

[terse dock]

I wish someone loved me

[serene forge]

I'm sure people do

[ancient gyro]

i don't watch enough tv shows to do that

[stable mulch]

should i replace the blue joker for the spades/wrath joker?

[serene forge]

I would sell photograph

[terse dock]

Romantically i mean

[stable mulch]

nahh its alright i think

[serene forge]

im sure someone does

[stable mulch]

i have plenty of face cards

[bright cosmos]

Why doesn’t the guy we’re playing as just slide more jokers under the ones we’re using

What’s stopping us from infinite joker slot

Jumbo I guess

Jimbo*

[stable mulch]

id assume the jokers need to be atleast in sight to work

[serene forge]

if you die when you lose then I think you'll die for cheating too

[ancient gyro]

he gave us ecto ankh tech

[stable mulch]

you cant use a whole booster pack

[terse dock]

Sis I'm a chud

[serene forge]

no you're not

[stable mulch]

anyways, hmm?

[serene forge]

but you also won't get anywhere by moping

[bright cosmos]

What if every card was jimbo? Could you win?

[frank grove]

i would just skip it

[terse dock]

No

[bright cosmos]

And I mean EVERY card

Not just jokers

[stable mulch]

alright

[bright cosmos]

This leads us to ask

[terse dock]

No

[bright cosmos]

How may chips does jimbo score

If he was a playing card

[serene forge]

naneinf

[frank grove]

can you get blue seal in a standard pack?

[serene forge]

aka 0

[bright cosmos]

Would you just have to use base chips

[serene forge]

blue seal spawns jimbos

[bright cosmos]

Why would I know I’m mediocre at best

[terse dock]

Per hand you can only get a max of 160x56

[serene forge]

actually

[bright cosmos]

I am the worst person to ask for help on this game

[serene forge]

you would just play a flush five of jimbos every time

[unreal topaz]

flush five is more chips

210

[serene forge]

if every card is a jimbo

[frank grove]

yeah you just win

[terse dock]

I didn't remember

[unreal topaz]

215 with aces

[frank grove]

if you find a red seal jimbo 😭

[unreal topaz]

but actually

[shell dagger]

215 with aces

[terse dock]

No it isnt cause the cards are jimbo

[unreal topaz]

you cant make a flush five

yeah

[frank grove]

standard packs

[unreal topaz]

no death cards

[frank grove]

do jimbos become playable cards in the deck

[unreal topaz]

those have jimbos as i understand it

[bright cosmos]

But every card is jimbo

[terse dock]

Are jimbos stone cards

[bright cosmos]

That means they are all identical other than seals and editions and stuff

[terse dock]

but they give +4 mult instead of 50 chips

[bright cosmos]

Uhh

[unreal topaz]

wait

[bright cosmos]

Is 5 stones flush five

[frank grove]

flush 5 with 40 extra mult is what?

[unreal topaz]

what if you get 5 polychrome jimbos

[terse dock]

No its a high card

[bright cosmos]

Jimbo counts as jimbo value and jimbo suit

5 is a flush five

[unreal topaz]

thats more score

[terse dock]

What hand does 5 jimbos score as

[bright cosmos]

What the heck would a tarot pack do

[terse dock]

give you a selection of 3-5 jimbos

[bright cosmos]

Are all packs just standard or Buffon at your choice I guess

Wait

Negative jimbo in the hand

[unreal topaz]

i was thinking in your joker slots, but in card slots is silly

[bright cosmos]

That’s what I meant

No card is safe

[terse dock]

The original message said everything was jimbo

[bright cosmos]

It’s all jimbo

[unreal topaz]

could be both

[bright cosmos]

Negative jimbos are +1 hand size if their in ya deck

[unreal topaz]

jokers and cards

[bright cosmos]

They are both yes

[terse dock]

That's what I mean

[unreal topaz]

i think it's a flush? i believe jimbo is wearing a suit but doesnt have a rank

[terse dock]

Do consumable jimbos also give +4 milt when held

[bright cosmos]

Yeah

[frank grove]

so what if 5 poly jimbo jokers and flush of jimbos is what like? 40k?

[terse dock]

Can consumable jimbos have editions

[bright cosmos]

5 poly I’m happy for them

Sure. Why not

Tags and vouchers now grant a singular jimbo

[frank grove]

actually have 6 of them on black deck

[bright cosmos]

Keep a eye out for special ones

[unreal topaz]

i dont think so

since any consumables can't have editions

[bright cosmos]

Jimbo is too powerful for such a limitation

The consumable slots are uhh

Also joker slots I guess

Oh maybe use them for the jimbos effect

[unreal topaz]

whats the 7x4 for?

i dont see a 7x or 4x in my brain

[terse dock]

I fucked it up

the x4s are for jimboes

[stable mulch]

it was lined up for a win, all it took was ONE unlucky round bru

[unreal topaz]

shouldnt it be like (4+4 x number_of_jimbos)x(other stuff)

[stable mulch]

the essence of balatro

[terse dock]

I do t know im in the shower

[stable mulch]

soggy cat image

[unreal topaz]

bc jimbo just doesn't give you 4x

[unreal topaz]

it would be +4 to the base

then after that that base gets multiplied by poly

then +4 again

then x1.5

repeat a few times

[terse dock]

Im just going to leave the error for mult trading in cause this is like a minimum

either way 8 gay jimboes wins

[unreal topaz]

why didnt i just do this

thats easier

also we didn't take into account

what if jimbo is red seal poly?

then it's stronger

[humble gulch]

Fuck

[stable mulch]

i want the checkered deck but its blocked behind playing black deck

[nova ibex]

How does the Four Fingers joke work on a flush house?

[void lintel]

4/5 cards need to be the same suit pretty much

i think

[modern horizon]

Good question, it doesn’t work with flush 5 ( test it)

[nova ibex]

Thank yee

[void lintel]

honestly haven't tested it either

but logically it should mean less flush restrictions

[modern horizon]

If it doesn’t work with flush 5, I have the impression it won’t work with flush house. But that just a guess

But I can confirm that it doesn’t work with flush 5 , you get 5 of a kind instead

[mortal nimbus]

Four Fingers lowers the requirement of a flush, and the relevant secret hands (and straight flush) are all just a flush and the relevant hand (5oak, full house and straight). So as long as you meet both requirements, Four Fingers can allow for them

You still need 5 cards for Flush House and Flush Five as the relevant hand is still a 5 card hand, you just need to play 4 cards that contribute to a flush.

[serene forge]

it does

Gives me chills

Ai slop?

[surreal otter]

Can Amber Acorn be cheesed without spending any hands by beginning to play a hand, letting scoring partially finish to gain info, then quitting out and restarting? Repeat as many times as needed to learn the order.

[terse dock]

Yeah but why would you

[surreal otter]

Because I'm on ante 24 on a promising naneinf run and I need the first hand to copy dna five times or I die lmao

Looking to get one more chance at the infinite boss rerolls voucher in ante 25

[wet jackal]

Tell me whats the best strat for jokerless

I'm assuming it's playing flushes earlygame becore pivoting to 4oak later on

[serene forge]

straight or 4oak

are the best

[light oak]

do I risk it?

[humble gulch]

Not worth in ante 14

And you only have one brainstorm

[glossy mortar]

If I tower this queen and play it with a pair of 10’s, will it reset the bus?

[serene forge]

sell a baron

[humble gulch]

I don't think so

[serene forge]

bro

what the fuck

[humble gulch]

I think yes

[ancient gyro]

omg amphy is alive

[serene forge]

are you doing in ante 14 with 56 dollars

[light oak]

no eco jokers nor any eco vouchers

[ancient gyro]

not if bus is before vamp

[humble gulch]

Mime is an econ joker

[serene forge]

you literally have three fucking mimes

[humble gulch]

Just make gold

[serene forge]

😭

[light oak]

not when the devil got murdered

[serene forge]

IT'S ANTE 14 😭

[humble gulch]

I don't think you're ready for long endless runs...

[light oak]

I've seen 1 devil at ante 3 when I was running photochad

[ancient gyro]

reminds me of how kura played earlier today on stream

[serene forge]

girl you need to post seed once you die

i refuse to believe you for a moment

you're telling me there was 1 devil in 14 antes and you didn't get any source of tarot gen

[light oak]

I usually play photochad early game to set up for baron mine runs and I've seen like 1 devil pre ante 8

[serene forge]

whos kura

[ancient gyro]

epic ping

[light oak]

huh

[serene forge]

i meant

[serene forge]

reply this

[light oak]

ah alr

[wet jackal]

Straights require too much iq for my pairslop succumbed mind

So 4oak it is

[terse dock]

shouldn't drg have a rock tag

[ancient gyro]

[wet jackal]

Drg mentioned

Rock and stone

k yeah

[abstract mesa]

chat, does the idol deadname wild cards

[ancient gyro]

nope

unfortunately

[humble gulch]

HUHHH

[ancient gyro]

gguh

[abstract mesa]

like, if i have a single king of spades that ive turned into a wild amongst my entire deck of king of hearts, can the idol pick the king of spades as a king of spades instead of its newly assigned identity of wild king

[ancient gyro]

idol picks the original card without looking at non stone enhancements

[abstract mesa]

ugh, out here misgendering my cards

[serene forge]

nice

also very common idol L

[humble gulch]

Bruhhhh

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[ancient gyro]

[hollow walrus]

like the kona ice flavor?

[serene forge]

no

you may not

[eager summit]

why

[ancient gyro]

normally we have national emotional support hotlines to remedy these situations

[plain ermine]

now only dusk left to sticker

[wild lagoon]

how do you even build a deck centered around a card

[humble gulch]

Oui

Hehe

[plain ermine]

glass 2s?

[wild lagoon]

i’m trying to build a queen only high card deck but i keep getting boned in the early game

[humble gulch]

Yes

[wild lagoon]

the luck of these jokers kill me

[plain ermine]

why are you trying to build queen only

[humble gulch]

You don't force builds

[wild lagoon]

hm

[humble gulch]

Why are you trying to force a queens build 💔

[wild lagoon]

to see if i can

[humble gulch]

Obviously you're gonna die

[wild lagoon]

plus blue stake is eating my ass

im trying to pivot from my normal flush build

[humble gulch]

Even worse, just play pairs

[wild lagoon]

because its not getting me past this blue stake

[plain ermine]

if you want to force gimmicky builds like that then higher stakes will be very very difficult for that purpose, especially blue stake+

[humble gulch]

Flushes are trash for blue stake and above

[wild lagoon]

yea flush has not been helping on blue stake

[humble gulch]

Free win

[plain ermine]

on higher stakes to win you want to go with what the game gives you instead of trying for specific things or trying to avoid specific things. generally it's good to start with pairs in mind but adjust to whatever appears

[serene forge]

in 16 antes, with the default 50 shop slots per ante (15 in ante 1):
devil mentioned 11 times
death mentioned 11 times
midas mask mentioned 1 time
4 purple seals present
a lot of gold cards from packs
hallucination mentioned 6 times
rebate mentioned 10 times

i really gotta ask what were you doing

[humble gulch]

HUH

Pairs maxxing

[wild lagoon]

oh dear lord what a joker

[light oak]

I hit maybe one card pack because I don't see a need for them

[serene forge]

????????????????????????????????????????

[plain ermine]

for example flushes are fine, not worth avoiding on principle, but you'd want a joker that incentivizes them (IE ancient joker, rough gem). higher stakes and especially blue stake are much less forgiving

[serene forge]

boss

[wild lagoon]

blue stake has been making my life miserable the past 4 days

[light oak]

why would inflate my deck with even more non kings when my entire scoring route is kings

[serene forge]

PURPLE SEALS

[wild lagoon]

what ya’ll say is noted

[plain ermine]

blue seal

[serene forge]

purple seals are very

important

very important

[light oak]

DECK INFLATION

[serene forge]

how do you expect to get a deck of kings

with no tarot gen

and no econ

[serene forge]

you're not getting a deck of kings in ante 4

[light oak]

several deaths and copying DNA early

[plain ermine]

also like if you open a pack and there's no kings or no seals or whatever you can skip it lol

[serene forge]

actually

how do you even intend to get a red seal king to begin with

if you're not opening packs

that's also really confusing to me

[light oak]

get lucky from spectrals

[serene forge]

boss

[wooden sluice]

it has to be ragebait

[plain ermine]

it's probably the biggest hurdle for new players because of how much it limits the strategies available. no shame in struggling with it, we all do at first

[humble gulch]

Yeah, you're not ready for endless

[wooden sluice]

just leave it be bro theres no way theyre lowkenuine

[serene forge]

boss

do you know how many spectral packs there were in 16 antes

do you know how many

[light oak]

I play to watch the number get bigger

[light oak]

at least 3

[wooden sluice]

its ragebait

no shot

[serene forge]

there was one pack

in ante 5

that had neither ectoplasm nor medium nor deja vu

[plain ermine]

could always hit the, what, 1/200 on cert i guess lol

[wooden sluice]

1/52

[humble gulch]

This sound is nice

[serene forge]

this person refuses to take standard packs because of "bloating", no way in hell they're ever taking a cert

[plain ermine]

1/52 for a king, but then it would need a red seal, so divided by four again

[wooden sluice]

nope, 1/13 for a king

[serene forge]

no it's 1/13 for a king

[humble gulch]

Just skip ❤️‍🩹

[plain ermine]

oh whoops that's right

[serene forge]

there are 4 kings in a 52 card deck lol

and there are 13 ranks

[plain ermine]

<-- smart

[wooden sluice]

so 1/52 💥

[serene forge]

i'm telling you

there should be a game review feature in this game

like on chess websites

[wooden sluice]

yeah dude

[serene forge]

skipping a purple seal gets you hit with the

blunder

[tidal flame]

Do I keep greedy or sell it for chad

[plain ermine]

is there a reason you wouldnt

(sell it for chad, i mean)

[tidal flame]

I have a bit of diamonds

[humble gulch]

I guess I'll just go mad

[wooden sluice]

hand levels?

[humble gulch]

17 pair

[tidal flame]

Just got through the arm 😭😭😭

[plain ermine]

esp with this glass you'll want the chad here

[tidal flame]

It’s so over

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

[plain ermine]

it’s like ancient joker if it was good!

[serene forge]

post seed

[ancient gyro]

oh boy

[flat tiger]

i think I saw a perishable blackboard early actually, but its not like its gonna last

[heavy heron]

what a disgusting build and rough run

also blocking duo on final hand is crazy

oh wait the holo 3 🤦‍♀️ whatever

me thinking i still need a pair of queens for duo

[serene forge]

ok so right off the bat this was your first mistake

also lucky cat in ante 3

albeit rental

[heavy heron]

maybe they didn’t have lucky cards yet

so it never showed up

[serene forge]

i guess

[ancient gyro]

what was the next uncommon in that ante queue

[serene forge]

rental loyalty card

[heavy heron]

LOOLLL

[ancient gyro]

welp

[plain ermine]

4x

[serene forge]

i mean

[heavy heron]

so basically no joker at all

[wild lagoon]

NOOO

[heavy heron]

were there any chariots

[wild lagoon]

I GOT TO THE BOSS BLIND OF ANTE 8 ON THE BLUE STAKE

FUCK

[plain ermine]

not unusable but as a rental on painted

[wild lagoon]

I LOST

[heavy heron]

whenever i can’t find x mult on stm builds

[plain ermine]

there’s always next time

[heavy heron]

you kinda rely on steel

[stone shell]

seeing someone discard 5 cards with ramen

[serene forge]

ante 5 glass joker

[wild lagoon]

im so distraught

[heavy heron]

did you see a lot of chariots

from ante 2 to 7

[plain ermine]

glass joker’s a good one

[heavy heron]

if so, missed opportunity prob

[flat tiger]

which shop, i either only have like one lucky or I just didnt reroll until I see it

[serene forge]

there are 5 chariots starting from ante 2

[ancient gyro]

so only enhancement jokers

[serene forge]

this is literally round 1

[ancient gyro]

must have double skipped 🗣️

[heavy heron]

wow

[serene forge]

there's a polychrome gold seal queen in an ante 4 pack

so another missed opportunity

[heavy heron]

i mean hey 7.5x is mult to me!

[flat tiger]

you mean you take eternal mail-in with 4 joker slot?

[ancient gyro]

so 3 realistically

[heavy heron]

(assuming you find all 5 steel)

[ancient gyro]

rebate is generally the no brainer pick up

[plain ermine]

eternals are dicey on painted sure but rebate is like the best econ joker, it’s at least worth considering

[serene forge]

painted deck makes utility jokers worse, yes

[heavy heron]

yeah, it’s actually not such a bad play because the money you make esp with the hand size, it pays off the entire run truly, you only need 3 jokers to win

[serene forge]

and yet rebate is still op as fuck
