[vale shale]

Rebate is econ and tcard is deckfix and econ

[broken abyss]

I'm in Ante 3, there's always a chance this becomes photochad

[vale shale]

Since you have stm and mime

[broken abyss]

I mean true

fair point

[vale shale]

You can deckfix to queens

[broken abyss]

and just hope this transitions to baron and strengths for endless.

[vale shale]

Ngl stm mime is way more fun than baron mime

[broken abyss]

yeah but won't go nearly as far in endless

if it even makes it into endless at all

[vale shale]

Me personally I don't care about endless really

[broken abyss]

That was the point of this run

to try to reroll until I hit a good endless run

so now I prayge for a baron

[vale shale]

Oh the point was to endless

Ok carry on.

[broken abyss]

aaaaaand the run instantly died to the Needle, and no Queens in hand after all 3 discards.

fuckin hell

[weak relic]

Temperance value

[spring jungle]

Showman worth over dna in endless

?

[patent sail]

i think DNA acts as a little more handsize

which is what you do need for baronmime

[pale wolf]

wait... acrobat is that you

[patent sail]

first report of loyalty card doing something ever

[light oak]

should I be copying the polychrome steel or the red seal steel

[patent sail]

red seal

[pale wolf]

idk if loyalty card is worth it tho

[patent sail]

poly aint gonna do anything for baronmime

it doesnt get triggered when held in hand while red seal is +2 triggers

so

[shell dagger]

red seal is +1 trigger

[patent sail]

isnt is +1 steel and +baron

[shell dagger]

no

those are xmult effects

[patent sail]

i thought zebra literally told me that today

[patent sail]

well yeah thats what i was talking about

[shell dagger]

1 trigger can trigger various numbers of xmult effects

[patent sail]

+2 x1.5 triggers

[shell dagger]

so +2 xmult effects

😛

[patent sail]

thats what i was mwant to say

[pale wolf]

ante 8 glow up

[patent sail]

i guess i shouldve wprded it differently but you get what i mean

[pale wolf]

wut

[stable mulch]

i come express my hate for the needle boss

[shell dagger]

except you copy baron twice so it’s 4 xmult effects

[patent sail]

that red seal is +1 steel trigger and +1 baron trigger aka +2 xmult triggers

[shell dagger]

and at that point just call it what it is, a trigger

[pale wolf]

theyre called the anesthesiologist

idk

[shell dagger]

not what it does

[stable mulch]

he is definetely not putting any of the pain away

[pale wolf]

ok then

[shell dagger]

hellogram

[stable mulch]

i keep getting unlucky on the needle, i lost by 2k only on my last run

[shell dagger]

helluo

[pale wolf]

i suppose im takin both

[shell dagger]

oh it’s ante 7 hmm

[weak relic]

Mmm pairslop

[shell dagger]

will you find 4 cards that is the question

[patent sail]

why not sell ramen and get both

and rip judgment first i guess

[pale wolf]

should i pivot? the RTB in shop is at +0 btw

[weak relic]

Judgment is negative obelisk trust me bro

[pale wolf]

meh the ramen was 1.85 and i have purple seals

[patent sail]

why didnt yoy rip judgement thooo

[pale wolf]

i forgor

[patent sail]

man

[pale wolf]

def was a blueprint

[patent sail]

negative flower pot

[pale wolf]

Wait it's actually a hack I just checked

thats kinda a miss

🦓

[brave goblet]

more wee

[patent sail]

well could sell him for like 3 bucks

[weak relic]

How much is the wee?

Actually no

[patent sail]

$8

[pale wolf]

like 128 i think

[weak relic]

Dont even bother

$3 is $3

[pale wolf]

there should be a deck that starts with hone bc this is so fun

[dire sage]

DNA in judgement in arcana

[pale wolf]

wouldnt take it

[weak relic]

Why dna

[dire sage]

To get 2s

[weak relic]

Lol

[dire sage]

And scale the wee + hologram

[humble gulch]

Free win

[weak relic]

Strush?

[humble gulch]

Pair

[pale wolf]

its ante 7 and i already have no open slot for dna

[weak relic]

Son.

[pale wolf]

unless it was negative but that wouldnt work for a judgement

[humble gulch]

Fuck

[waxen fable]

rental gay rights

[weak relic]

Rental delayed gratification in buffoon pack

[pale wolf]

this is tough decision, i would take the blackboard over duo if it was violet vessel

[dire sage]

CCITBPCCITBPCCITBPCCITBP

[ebon condor]

polychrome golden joker in buffoon pack

[pale wolf]

then again i wouldnt need to bc directors cut

i lov money

[humble gulch]

Okay

[dire sage]

Stone joker in the other buffoon pack

[humble gulch]

Alright

[shell dagger]

blue joker hologram synergy

[pale wolf]

loyalty card is that you

[shell dagger]

is it greedy if I’d buy both jokers and a pack there

[weak relic]

To do hits pair this round trust me bro

[humble gulch]

Gg

Bruh

[weak relic]

Waiter waiter, more pairslop pls

[humble gulch]

And magic trick too

[weak relic]

Invis will surely hit blue jimbo

[shell dagger]

damn no acrobat

[pale wolf]

too easy

[humble gulch]

Double green

[shell dagger]

rip

[weak relic]

Technical ×2 it is

[pale wolf]

round 12 wee → 224 chips without retriggers

thats a good joker

[shell dagger]

oui

[pale wolf]

does this win

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[shell dagger]

ye

[weak relic]

Also that's a malnourished Holo

[pale wolf]

wait i didnt see the playing card staring me in the face

[pale wolf]

quite

technically wasnt worth

[shell dagger]

or the 6 cards already added

[humble gulch]

Bruh

[pale wolf]

nobody knows when that happened 😎

[hasty pivot]

love that extra 0.5 on my hologram..

🤔

[pale wolf]

you hit the max

nice

[hasty pivot]

max?

[humble gulch]

Hologram is at x4.25 now

[pale wolf]

it stops going up iirc

or is it just rounding up bc digits

[wicked mango]

How many hiker triggers do you need on a king before it's worth another steel red king in hans for naneinf

[weak relic]

What

[hasty pivot]

oh?

[hasty pivot]

hiker best card

[wicked mango]

Like playing a king worth 200 chips makes your score be like (n^2+200n + who cares) instead of just n^2 right? Does that amount to enough Es

Maybe not, i think I'm not intuiting this right

[weak relic]

Huh

Chips barely matters in most naneinf runs

[wicked mango]

Yeah there's just no way it adds enough to the total sum to matter right

[pale wolf]

if it can only have 3 digits then 10.75x would round to 10.8

[humble gulch]

Bleh

[pale wolf]

it depends on the high card level but something like 3x the planets level

basically, more than you'll probably get during a baron mime run

[weak relic]

Insert "what does he even do?" reaction img

[pale wolf]

does this even win

[humble gulch]

No, I lost

[surreal dragon]

HOLY BLESSED

[pale wolf]

holy yodel it's div

[near basalt]

[compact niche]

Does a polychrome steel give the poly bonus from the hand also?

[pale wolf]

thats groker and not jimbo right

[pale wolf]

no

[frail moat]

dawg
my space joker so far literally procced on every single one of my hands that weren't my main hand in the current run
I'm actually being trolled so hard rn

[compact niche]

Ok thanks

[pale wolf]

only when scored

[near basalt]

-# ignore throwback

[wraith eagle]

I'm the groker baby why so discardious

[pale wolf]

which is kind of a incongruency with how Jokers use editions, they are always being held in hand basically right

never thought about that before

[humble gulch]

Fuck yes

[pale wolf]

i savescum to invalidate space jokers shortcomings

[wraith eagle]

Groker = yorick synergy 🙏

[humble gulch]

Uh

[weak relic]

I had a run like that before

Uneasy alliance

[wraith eagle]

Is burglar just the groker meta?

Idk

I've literally never use groker other than selling

[wicked sequoia]

groker meta is playing hands and not discarding

🙏

[pale wolf]

burglar has little to do with it

green joker is great on its own

[wicked sequoia]

Always happy to see the green man early in a run

[pale wolf]

you can still discard with groker as long as you're still scaling positively throughout the rounds, and sometimes that means midgame has lots of discards for value generation/xmult scaling and groker stagnates or even gets a little smaller

[heady rampart]

playing the ‘tro in school 👀

[weak relic]

I like red card

[surreal dragon]

yooo wassup

HOLY BLESSED 2.0

[near basalt]

Let me guess Hypackle?

[weak relic]

Chicken

[heady rampart]

nah

[pale wolf]

yorick

[near basalt]

It's chicot

[surreal dragon]

it is 😭

[pale wolf]

soul → fool → soul 😀

[heady rampart]

the abhorrent chicot:

[surreal dragon]

😭

[weak relic]

Then one became the fool

[surreal dragon]

i just found a judgement

[keen lodge]

capitalism

[surreal dragon]

chicot goes for judgement right?

[weak relic]

Hey

I think I know you

[pale wolf]

why

chicot means no worrying about boss blinds

[surreal dragon]

eh fine i dont have a gold sticker

[woven hare]

only the best of sets

[surreal dragon]

we keep it for temperance value too

[surreal dragon]

hmm

[pale wolf]

its not even stickered div

cmon

[hasty pivot]

@pale wolf aye is 17 on hologram impressive?

i had 5 certificates

[weak relic]

Yeah you can play photoslop without worrying about

[woven hare]

oh my god

[pale wolf]

uuuh i dont factor endless

[hasty pivot]

modded

[pale wolf]

😇

[woven hare]

oh

[hasty pivot]

yeah i aint that cool

[pale wolf]

the nebulous modded impression

[weak relic]

My biggest holo is probably 18.25×

That was when perky

[hasty pivot]

oh

yeah

[weak relic]

And duplicating bunch of incantations

[pale wolf]

idk what my biggest was but probably like 8

i dont play endless

[weak relic]

It's not even endless, twas a gold stake run

Hold on lemme find it

[pale wolf]

duping incantation with perkeo hologram sounds sick

[woven hare]

what do i even take here

[willow frost]

vampire or drivers license it doesnt matter

probably just start making glass and using that to score lol

[humble gulch]

:3

[versed sable]

realistically ig it's License since it's rare and would sell for more

colon three gaming

[woven hare]

license for sell value 🥀

[pale wolf]

i would take DL as well

because triple chad with no enhancements isnt worth playing

entertainment wise

[versed sable]

that too!

[brave goblet]

the scholar: 🙁

[weak relic]

Found it. Although it's just 16×

Shoot

[brave goblet]

hmmm

[weak relic]

I didn't send the

Oops

[pale wolf]

imo 18x is the bare minimum--

[weak relic]

Maybe im just tired

Its 2am

[pale wolf]

nuh uh its 2 pm

broasted

[weak relic]

I just realized it now

[hoary moon]

your hologram can legally drive

in certain countries

[fallow shadow]

they should make a joker called bloodscone and it should be a delicious baked treat

[pale wolf]

i should make more of these

[weak relic]

I'm in a gmt +8 country.

Anyways gn

[pale wolf]

idk that joker

[fallow shadow]

who is this diva and what does she do

[pale wolf]

so you know that marvel cinematic universe monkey business

this is the crossover dimension between that and balala

its loki yorick

[fallow shadow]

hard

[humble gulch]

Now black deck

[brave goblet]

W

[humble gulch]

Hehe

[pale wolf]

are you just dead

sadge

[brave goblet]

LOADED

nat neg obelisk

[pale wolf]

belligerent

[surreal dragon]

💔

please kill me

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[pale wolf]

what!

[tardy spade]

I had a second brainstorm but I sold it while it was copying a cola for another double tag

Will this be a huge missplay which destroys the whole run?

[wicked mango]

Eh you've got at least 8 antes that you can just breeze thru with chad and hiker

[prime jay]

should i focus on doing 5OK

[tardy spade]

Yes

[brave goblet]

Cursed run

[median grove]

what is hack even good for?

besides gold seals

[patent sail]

freakman

[brave goblet]

idol

lucky cards (lucky cat)

[median grove]

thats it right

[patent sail]

wee

[brave goblet]

glass

[median grove]

oh true luckys are good ig

what does wee do again

[brave goblet]

retriggers on the suit jonkers, agate, bloodstone, arrowhead, rough gem

[patent sail]

+8 chips accumulated per 2 played

which dowsnt seem like a lot but it adds up so quickly

[pale wolf]

2 hands of square per scored 2

[brave goblet]

a single 2 is worth half a runner proc lol

[patent sail]

i think i got to properly use him only once and he grew to 1000+ chips

[pale wolf]

when you have retriggers I consider anything below 1000 to be small

[left sorrel]

Hi, is anyone interested?

Do you want to play PVP Balatro?
(Without the mod)
Its simple, we decide a seed, deck, time limit and stake, and we try to score the best hand possible in the first 8 antes (Restarts allowed) . Then we send screen pics of the YOU WIN!/GAME OVER screen to eachothers DM (before the time limit) and see who wins.

[pale wolf]

This pasta is probably over a year old at this point

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[left sorrel]

idk maybe, i just enjoy this “gamemode”

[pale wolf]

what's the prize

[left sorrel]

the fun you had along the run…

whats the prize of winning a balatro run…?

[pale wolf]

I get one balacoin per win

I'm on the crypto enabled build

[left sorrel]

do you want to play though?

[pale wolf]

unfortunately not I am busy

[left sorrel]

okok

[pale wolf]

My strategy would be to throw the seed into an analyzer and figure out which Jokers I need to work towards

[left sorrel]

my strategy is to dope myself to win the competition type comment 😭😭

thats cheating…

[pale wolf]

with restarts allowed, basically the same thing

[median grove]

wait matador is so good

why are people not talking about how good matador is

[pale wolf]

It's pretty good but it's not very widely applicable

[fast stirrup]

because it doesn’t trigger for half the boss blinds

[pale wolf]

40% chance of plus $24 per ante is like okay

[left sorrel]

no…????

[pale wolf]

uh .. yes

minus like 10 minutes at the start for blazing through the seed at fastest speed possible to see what's in it

[tardy spade]

10 minutes is 10 minutes

My speedruns of portal are basically the same as the world record. Minus about 25 minutes.

[pale wolf]

I mean I would take a 10-minute handicap to look at the seed on an analyzer

The time limit would have to be pretty short to eliminate this strategy

[brave goblet]

It's good when it works and it does squat when it doesn't, so if you average out, you get "meh"

And the times it does squat are higher

[pale wolf]

also consider that activating Matador on the ox is fake

[patent sail]

(Without the mod)
Its simple, you decide a deck and stake, and you try to beat the Ante 8 boss (New runs allowed) . Then you send screen pics of the YOU WIN!/GAME OVER screen to #🕹・game-discussion

[pale wolf]

I'm interested, but what's in it for me

are you going to give me $100 if I lose

[patent sail]

i give you 5000 funny money

[pale wolf]

I get a prize when I lose because the prize of winning is victory of course

[patent sail]

the prize of winning is actually jimbo not making fun of you

[pale wolf]

lack of punishment isn't a reward

[patent sail]

in balatro it is

[oblique matrix]

please mister balartro let me play balato on my laptop

[patent sail]

jimbo either makes fun of you or he doesnt

thats it

[patent sail]

humble "Buy" button on store.steampowered.com

[oblique matrix]

on a chromebook

can't download steam

😔

[median grove]

are even steven and fibonacci bad with a pair build?

[patent sail]

steven is okay though hes really just an earlygame option

fib is pretty good

[terse dock]

fib is the best joker in the game

[patent sail]

thats like at least +16 which isnt bad

[terse dock]

dont @me

[median grove]

why

[oblique matrix]

you get a lot more from it when not playing pairs

[median grove]

but not with pairs

[patent sail]

sure but like we are talking about pairs here

[terse dock]

Just get retriggers

[median grove]

what should i do here?

[oblique matrix]

it isn't inherently bad with pairs but it really hampers the beauty of a 5 card hand with fib

[median grove]

i dont know if i should go pairs or into fib / 3oak / 4oak

[terse dock]

Blocked.

[median grove]

blocked what

[ancient gyro]

unblocked games in elementary school computer lab

[pale wolf]

does cool math games still exist in school culture

[ancient gyro]

prob not

[pale wolf]

It's crazy how having the word math in there somehow gave it a free pass in every classroom for a decade

[willow frost]

nah kids these days just using vpns lol

[frank grove]

with flash being dead a lot of those old games are just dead for modern stuff

[pale wolf]

I'm pretty sure these sites got a work around somehow

ruffle

[ancient gyro]

they sure do

[terse dock]

Yes

[ancient gyro]

adobe couldn't pull the plug on academic gaming culture

[frank grove]

some of them did, a lot of the older cooler games from at least what ive seen have just gone now cause they just never did the workarounds

[ancient gyro]

i got away with playing happy wheels a few times

[pale wolf]

In my senior year of high school I was on my phone so much that they banned Discord from the Wi-Fi

which was crazy because some of the school groups used Discord as their group chats

I made a bunch of teachers angrily go to the principal

because they couldn't use Discord on their computers

[frank grove]

that time of discord was so weird

[median grove]

is endless green joker good?

and is endless trading card bad??

yes to both i think

so it is bad?

[pale wolf]

no

[frank grove]

eternal green joker and trading card are both good

[median grove]

but green joker is a pair joker, and trading card is for deckfixing

and pairs dont require deckfixing

so its bad to have both

[ancient gyro]

huh

[frank grove]

deck fiixng can help with pairs to find stuff, esp with green joker where you dont usually want to use your discards as much for digging

[gentle basalt]

both together is questionable yes, but deck fixing does help pairs too

[median grove]

but how

[pale wolf]

Deck fixing isn't only about finding the hand, it's also by finding the valuable cards

[median grove]

what cards would i even want to delete with trading card

[frank grove]

its +3 per round grimbo is still good with trading card

[gentle basalt]

find your value generators\

gold cards, blue seals etc

[median grove]

so i should take an endless green joker and an endless trading card?

[ancient gyro]

low ranks or red suits

[pale wolf]

i would

[frank grove]

i would too

[median grove]

why red suits?

okay thanks

[ancient gyro]

no speculative benefits

[frank grove]

blackboard and they have worse uncommon gem jokers

[worthy tinsel]

endless green joker?
you mean eternal?

[median grove]

yeah

lol i think im dead here anyway i have no scoring

welp

whatd i do wrong?

[woven hare]

fuck is this a skip

[pale wolf]

no you're fine just play

two pairs if you're scared

[median grove]

i dont think theres anyway i could get to 1000

[woven hare]

whyd it have to be peroshable

[median grove]

i have no scoring

[frank grove]

what

[median grove]

i effectively have no jokers

so theres no way to get to 1000

[woven hare]

green gets you to 1000

[pale wolf]

The green Joker is going to be plus four by the end of the round

[ancient gyro]

idk if one 5 card hand finishes 1k but 2 does

[pale wolf]

throughout four hands you will score 1000

[hoary moon]

if it aint broken dont touch it ig

[ancient gyro]

well idk about that

[frank grove]

yeah just play pairs/2pair and try to find a flush

also spend money in shops if you cant beat the next blind

[brave goblet]

Campfire

[median grove]

i died

[ancient gyro]

should've done that this blind

[pale wolf]

that too

what was the seed

[ancient gyro]

4 pairs clear 450, fully charged flush only gets 600

[prime valve]

Hello yall

[median grove]

idk rip

whatd i do wrong?

just keep too much money on me

[ancient gyro]

didn't spend down

[pale wolf]

hard to say without knowing what cards got drawn

[frank grove]

yeah you just have to spend money when you know you cant win next blind

[median grove]

i forgot my jokers were not op yet

[pale wolf]

I'm confident it was a survivable blind

[frank grove]

its tough to get two 5 card hands and using trading card and build grimbo up at the same time

[median grove]

probably

i got to 900

[frank grove]

yeah its winnable for sure

[ancient gyro]

not with zero grimbo fuel

[median grove]

but i had no grimbo fuel

[pale wolf]

lies

The trading card wouldn't have mattered, assuming it was used before any hands

[ancient gyro]

i don't assume myself getting two 5 card hands for any speculative scenario

in this case

[pale wolf]

I don't think you need 2

I think that was winnable with two pairs

[frank grove]

you dont you only need one at the very last hand

[ancient gyro]

it depends what they played before the final hand

[pale wolf]

seed is lost :c

[ancient gyro]

two 2 pairs and a pair clears 450 on black deck

[ancient gyro]

doing this while still holding a last card flush

[median grove]

any help here? do i commit to any hands?

i dont really know which hands i should focus on

[naive frigate]

It's still crazy to me how balatro was made literally by one person

[ancient gyro]

a3r4

[frank grove]

ante 3 round 4

stop skipping

[median grove]

why is that bad

i got a lot of money

[pale wolf]

yeah but you increase how much you have to score while removing shops for opportunities to actually get the things that score

[naive frigate]

That's why you don't skip

[frank grove]

yeah but you're missing a lot of interest, jokers, packs, shops, scaling with scaling jokers etc etc

[thorny goblet]

but you are no woefully prepared for the blinds to come

[naive frigate]

Cuz you can buy stuff at the shop that you skip

[median grove]

but i thought i need money

so is this run abust?

[naive frigate]

You need to also spend money vro

[frank grove]

skipping is generally worse expected value than playing rounds usually (bar ante 1 investment tag and handy tag on anaglyph later in a run)

[pale wolf]

The money is to buy things in the shops

[naive frigate]

No i think

[ancient gyro]

you died with 25 dollars in the last run, what does that say

[pale wolf]

that they're very interesting

[median grove]

spend more play less

[pale wolf]

play more

[ancient gyro]

i think these chex mix oreo cookie wafer crumb snacks im chowing down are laced with melatonin

[frank grove]

spend more play more

[median grove]

true

[sacred maple]

Finally won my first unseeded gold stake run 🥹

[ancient gyro]

[frank grove]

why no flush 5 😭

[ebon condor]

evil

[pale wolf]

why yes

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[sacred maple]

I mean, I still won, but yeah I didn't notice lol.

[coarse dew]

bro was probably shaking his ass off

[median grove]

is stm a pair joker?

[sacred maple]

Gold stake was evil, but luck finally gave me two souls, and they led me to victory.

[pale wolf]

kinda

better for high card

[ancient gyro]

half pair half hc

[frank grove]

kinda, at some point hc is better for stm but its half and half

[ancient gyro]

more consistent as a pair

hc is joker dependent

[median grove]

okay thanks

is endless certificate good?

[ancient gyro]

cert in any condition is generally a pickup

[frank grove]

yeah

[median grove]

why? it sounds so bad

bunch of bloat

[frank grove]

the drawbacks from the slightly more deck bloat is you win the game

[rough ether]

Nice work bro

[viscid harbor]

this game is ragebaiting me atp

[ancient gyro]

permanent planet scaling option in your deck
permanent tarot gen in your deck
permanent rental offset option in your deck
red seal

[frank grove]

and with stm red seals are not horrible cause you can just steel them

[viscid harbor]

how am I supposed to play this without having this happen to me at least thrice in a row

[humble gulch]

I think I won't struggle with erratic

[ancient gyro]

ok well stm cert have slight conflict among each other

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[serene forge]

if you're bloating your deck with high quality cards is it really bloat

[frank grove]

yeah im still taking cert with stm anyway

[serene forge]

red seal is the weakest seal but that still works with devil

[serene forge]

which you are going to get because you're getting purple seals too lol

[lapis blade]

Why is this club debuffed

[ancient gyro]

this was a continuing thread with stm pickup

[frank grove]

smeared joker

[naive frigate]

Becasue it's trans

[lapis blade]

I see

[naive frigate]

And the goad is transphobic

[serene forge]

smeared jonkler

[humble gulch]

I love certificate

[serene forge]

same

[naive frigate]

I'm genuinely curious how did thunk get all the rights for deck customization

[fiery nymph]

same

[cosmic maple]

Baron thinks he belongs, lmao

[serene forge]

what

[naive frigate]

Like cyberpunk 2077

[mellow goblet]

Hi im strugling beating balatro with the green deck on white stake difficulty can anyone recomend a good strategy for beating ante 8?

[serene forge]

what

[prime valve]

The collabs rights

[naive frigate]

Face cards

[serene forge]

oh

[humble gulch]

I think they asked thunk first

[naive frigate]

Damn

[frank grove]

in credits you can see all the licenses and copyright stuff

[naive frigate]

I also heard that balatro was in black mirror because the creator is a huge fan

[woven hare]

wraithed at 40$ got this im gona

[serene forge]

some of those other games did their own collabs with balatro too

[naive frigate]

Well yes or else it's illegal

[serene forge]

like vampire survivors

[frank grove]

see

[median grove]

is madness good on orange chip?

[serene forge]

yes

[humble gulch]

Madness is always good

[naive frigate]

Cyberpunk and dbd are the game i'd expect to collab the least

[prime valve]

What about fallout?

[naive frigate]

Oh yeah and fallout probs

[hoary knot]

Just another uninteded baron run

[serene forge]

can we get a hatsune miku collab

[prime valve]

My favourite customization on clubs

[naive frigate]

mikue teto and whatever the fuh that yellow girl's name is 😭

[humble gulch]

Osage where

[hoary knot]

Maybe I should've taken that burglar

[serene forge]

neru yes

[hoary knot]

Triple baka

[naive frigate]

That'd be awesome lowk

[prime valve]

Baron

[naive frigate]

Y'all hating on baron but when he gets rich and cool and popular he'll know i always was on his side

[hoary knot]

Ever seen a no sticker baron before 😂

[prime valve]

Always free money when i get one from judgement

Well, i didnt thats new

[hoary knot]

My perkeo was insanely early

[hoary knot]

All my barons come after I beat ante 8

[prime valve]

But the chad in the build carrying hard

[humble gulch]

Things I do with early Perkeo

[hoary knot]

He was for econ

Gold stamp aces

[prime valve]

Thats why but still, where your money went?

[hoary knot]

I went fishing for a brainstorm

[slow iris]

her name is "The Yellow One"

[naive frigate]

Son 😭

Crispy sonion 😭

[prime valve]

wut

[prime valve]

And mime also

[hoary knot]

A mime appeared early game but I was running odd Todd and abstract

[prime valve]

Damn

[prime valve]

I see no problem

[hoary knot]

Steel joker, blueprint appeared ante 7

[naive frigate]

No but imagine if the 31rd card of the deck would be teto

[night turret]

I’m thinking of selling the merry

But castellation can also go

[woven hare]

im playing glass aces do i pivot

[humble gulch]

Uh, judgement...

[night turret]

To what boot?

[terse vale]

na

[pale wolf]

submission: baron as it is in balatro can be directly attributed to the 2023 game "Storyteller"

[woven hare]

look at my 4 chads and tell me

[terse vale]

why wrathful ??

[humble gulch]

I guess bro

[pale wolf]

@cloud sinew

[woven hare]

photo

[humble gulch]

Bruhhhh

[woven hare]

my neg tcard was perishable so it died

[terse vale]

ya na

[pale wolf]

what

[humble gulch]

Free win

[pale wolf]

o

id get freaky with it and try to dupe the aj

because fun

[humble gulch]

It copied photo

[woven hare]

photochad calls to me like the green goblin mask

[pale wolf]

i think I'll start playing my runs in gauntlet order

i nearly exclusively play blue rn

[humble gulch]

I'm doing it in order

[ancient gyro]

no you wont

[night turret]

THE GOAT!!!

I’m so goated now for the rest of the run

[viral raft]

i just realice that in .lua language from balatro Canio is named "Caino" in the code

funny

[humble gulch]

One

[viral raft]

tuff

[ancient gyro]

slightly concerned you're doing gsg over black++ first

[fast stirrup]

yall have to try out this seed, there are 5 soul cards U8DJCN1I

[humble gulch]

What do you mean...

I guess I could do both at the same time and play gsg when I get tired

[ancient gyro]

well normally I would prep before doing something that hard

i say that while not doing that myself back when i first did it

[humble gulch]

Bro

[ancient gyro]

[viral raft]

immolate in spectral

trust

[humble gulch]

There was nothing...

I'm dead

[pale wolf]

I will

for at least 15

[patent sail]

Credit card in the new run button

[pale wolf]

if i lose i start on the next deck

This is actually an optimal way of recording my runs because when I post my wins you can see how many losses I've had since the last one, assuming that I haven't lost over 15 times in a row

[woven hare]

IM STILL CONFLICTED

[humble gulch]

I feel my progress better starting from red always

[viral raft]

looks inside

[pale wolf]

I'm not really interested in progress, I'm just doing it to play the game

[woven hare]

ashy look at this shop

do i fall for the temptation im playing aces

[patent sail]

Plant as the finisher watch

🐈🎉🎊

[woven hare]

if theres plant i can just use my aces

[patent sail]

If you purged faces i wouldnt,glass ace is essentially the same

[woven hare]

i can take photo and then magic trick

[patent sail]

Why magic trick 😭

[woven hare]

i already have it discounted and more faces are more good

[ancient gyro]

i prefer you not do this but ight

[woven hare]

this is not fully purged

[patent sail]

Not like that

[ancient gyro]

doing anything to skip painted

[pale wolf]

lol

[patent sail]

Magic trick is like genuinely bad 99% of the time

[woven hare]

I KNOW

[patent sail]

Floods shops with garbage

[woven hare]

but it could help me pivot

i have double overstock

[patent sail]

And now isnt the 1% situation

[viral raft]

way better than Nebula en Black

[woven hare]

the 1% is holo

[patent sail]

I would not do it

[woven hare]

stay aces?

[patent sail]

I guess yea

[patent sail]

I mean like you literally win rn anyway

[woven hare]

i'm gonna win anyways

yeah

[patent sail]

And endless runs dont exist

[patent sail]

🐈🔥

[woven hare]

im endlessing so i have time to pivot

i could get neg trib (delusional)

[heavy heron]

vagabond is my favorite x mult joker

[patent sail]

Asking me for advice is like asking a cat about quantum physics

[woven hare]

asking you for advice is like asking a cat for advice

[patent sail]

In both cases you will be meowed at and wont recieve a proper answer

[patent sail]

Flower pot is my favorite econ joker

[heavy heron]

bloodstone is my favorite early game joker

[patent sail]

Sell button synergy

[pale wolf]

painted will come

[woven hare]

certificate

is

[viral raft]

Campfire sinergy

[viral raft]

amazing

[woven hare]

my beloved

[patent sail]

My favorite +mult joker is Photograph

[prime valve]

Hello there

[woven hare]

hi glep

[viral raft]

hello Glep

[patent sail]

Henloe glep

🐈🔥

[woven hare]

why does double clicking make me x react

[prime valve]

How yall doing today?

[patent sail]

Think about it, without chad (or other retriggers) photo really is just weak +mult

[viral raft]

good, chilling and playing balatgro

[viral raft]

i mean yeah, that's why photo is so hated

[patent sail]

Photo just sucks okay

[viral raft]

without Chad Photo is easily one of the worst x2 mult ever

[pale wolf]

we did it

btw photograph without retriggers is basically just +mult that scales on individual planet levels

[prime valve]

Sounds good, if i only wanted to play balatro aswell.
Also Thank you for asking, take care

[patent sail]

Top 10 uses for photo:

1. Sell button synergy
2. Fed to the dagger
3. Photochad

Sorry i ate the rest of the list

[prime valve]

What we did?

[viral raft]

no worries! take care

i'm lowk forced to do it right?

[patent sail]

Yup

[viral raft]

sad

[patent sail]

Free win handed to you

[prime valve]

" No, i refuse to see only this"
takes the note from her stomach back
"I got it!"

[pale wolf]

pognana im selling juggler

[patent sail]

Okay how first of all

Second of all other 7 points were empty

[viral raft]

i just boughty a faceless without realice that my erratic deck just gave me 8 faces

😭

[prime valve]

So let me see

4:
5:
6:
7:
8:
9:
10:
"There is nothing here."

[patent sail]

Which is a subtle reference to the fact that photo sucks!!!!! and does nothing

[pale wolf]

2 round extinction pognana!!

[patent sail]

Woe, unbreakable michel upon ye

[woven hare]

im gona

im

[patent sail]

Hes gonna mult all over the place

[robust lance]

11: emergency score

[serene forge]

madness synergy

[patent sail]

Shop reroll/Go next is the real synergy

[woven hare]

whats the optimal arrangement for this

[patent sail]

Give photo some copies 😭

[woven hare]

ye

[patent sail]

Why is it all on chad

[pale wolf]

I literally asked the game out loud where Where's my reward for working so hard and then hit reroll

[patent sail]

Riff raff!

[pallid galleon]

copy photo twice

[pale wolf]

blessed obelisk

[patent sail]

Credit card in the standard pack

Not that you need it but its there

[terse dock]

oh my god

[woven hare]

2 hand size go brr

[pallid galleon]

one hand size deck incoming

[woven hare]

no if i take two more ectoplasms its -2 hand size

not even trobadour saves

[versed sable]

trust

[woven hare]

whats bean glitch im uncultured

[viral raft]

this run feels like straight up torture

[versed sable]

#🕹・game-discussion message

[viral raft]

without hologram this would just be lose run

[woven hare]

oh so better chicot

thats awesome

[pallid galleon]

@versed sable hey fern what did your bean bug setup look like on ante 24

cause i tried just having like half my lineup be beans and it didn't rly work

[versed sable]

for 24 and 32

i had better luck on 32 😭

[pallid galleon]

when do you quit to main menu

[versed sable]

as soon as bean is disabled

[pallid galleon]

because i did it whenever bean was disabled and it didnt work

[versed sable]

are you using steammodded

[pallid galleon]

ye

[versed sable]

it doesn't work then unfortunately

[pallid galleon]

but it worked on ante 8

[pale wolf]

hey..
the deck after red is Blue!!!! 😀 😀

[patent sail]

If i have to play 1 (one) run withoit Handy mod i might end it all

[versed sable]

idk

[pallid galleon]

maybe there is a difference between the one bean one joker setup and the multiple bean setup

[versed sable]

idk

that'd be interesting to test

[woven hare]

oh my god

[pallid galleon]

i noticed drspectred used stuntmans instead of beans on ante 24 or 32

[viral raft]

big for stickerin

[pallid galleon]

i wonder why he did that

[patent sail]

Funnier

[woven hare]

if i get deja vu im going to kiss thunk

[viral raft]

this run was painful as hell but Hologram carried the entire thing 🔥

[woven hare]

as usual

[viral raft]

sadly Hologram 100% will receive a nerf in 1.1

is way too op

like you get it in mid-late run and it's over

[white coral]

beanslop

Jk

I did it too

Unseededgem

[viral raft]

guys which deck do i go to C+?

i already complete the "bad" ones

[white coral]

Play checkered and ghost

[versed sable]

-# aa that profile banner is adorable xd

[versed sable]

i mean

[viral raft]

ok

checkered is easy

atleast in early

[woven hare]

guys wraith made me piss broke i want business card but i cant sell anything

[viral raft]

then is just a does nothing deck

[fervent plover]

Sometimes mods are a pain in the ass

Did two challenges, did not unlock achievement

[peak plinth]

How do you have that many blueprints and brainstorms

[woven hare]

and i cant use ecto because yk

[white coral]

Hory mory this is why i never find blueprints

[fervent plover]

One with mods, one with mod off

[versed sable]

[white coral]

I literally used it to speedrun ++ xd

[versed sable]

when you reroll a hundred times every shop it's not thaat bad

[peak plinth]

Brean

[woven hare]

look at the money count brun i wonder why

[white coral]

Thank youuu :3 my friend made it

[versed sable]

it looks incredibly huggable

[viral raft]

yeah, the hard part about gold stake is the early game, checkered have a early game so easy that works really well tbh

[peak plinth]

But how do you make them negative

[viral raft]

like i'd rather Checkered than Anaglpyh just because of his consistensy

[woven hare]

look at the double tags

1 neg tag

[white coral]

Anaglyph is lowkey awful

[fervent plover]

Very hard to get the one joker needed for c

[woven hare]

anaglyph is really funny

[fervent plover]

Dunno how I'll get c++

[white coral]

Anaglyph drives people to bad decisions

[woven hare]

we love it for that

[white coral]

Bad bad bad bad bad

[versed sable]

[viral raft]

100%, but is mostly just because tags themselfs are awful

[peak plinth]

But negative hand size kills your run

[viral raft]

anaglyph only works to skip a big tag with $

[white coral]

I did not find a single one of these in my run

[versed sable]

[viral raft]

then is just useless 99% of the time

[versed sable]

[terse vale]

a little of an overcorrection

[white coral]

Massivenegativeskipgem

[peak plinth]

Multiple?

[versed sable]

bean glitch gaming

[white coral]

negative popcorn, ice cream, madness, misprint

[versed sable]

#🕹・game-discussion message

[viral raft]

that's probably the only "useful" idea to gold stake with anaglyph but even then just gets average commons and nothing more

[viral raft]

atleast you get the stickers 😭

[hearty tundra]

Is there any way to fast reset challenges on console?

[fiery nymph]

you can also just play a base deck 😛

[viral raft]

for what i know...no :c

[hearty tundra]

Unfortunate

It’s just painfully annoying scrolling all the way back down after every death

Or bad start

[viral raft]

that's literally anaglyph, noone uses tags most of the time so you're just playing a big does nothing deck

atleast is not Black and Nebula

[viral raft]

true, that's really annoying, if only there was a Reset button like in pc with the R

[serene forge]

anaglyph would be better if there were more than like 3 good tags in the game

[supple pike]

hi

[viral raft]

yeah, anaglyph isn't bad (as a concept) the problem is that tags are awful

[viral raft]

hi Jack

[woven hare]

i got planted :(

wheres chicot when you need it man

no chicot no cut no luchador no nothing

[viral raft]

Seance actually being useful???

[pallid galleon]

photochad is a fraud build fr

[viral raft]

Baronmime is the true fraud

[woven hare]

it was a good run

[viral raft]

only work in low leagues

[woven hare]

my best run

[viral raft]

GG WP!!

[woven hare]

do yall want the seed i think i misplayed

[fiery nymph]

top up tag exists

[versed sable]

my favorite thing to double tag

[pallid galleon]

wait your high card was lvl 1 the whole time??

[woven hare]

NOT ONE PLUTO

[serene forge]

you don't play hc with photochad anyway

[woven hare]

you do with 2 hand size

[fiery nymph]

petition to add the top up tag to ante 1

that would be fun

[serene forge]

you probably don't get to 2 handsize either...

[viral raft]

wdym with "top up"?? 😭

[woven hare]

advanced strats

[woven hare]

2 common jokers

[fiery nymph]

i might have the name wrong but 2 commons

[ancient gyro]

investment tag lvls of no skill

[viral raft]

ohhh i see

[ancient gyro]

it's the right name

[viral raft]

naaah that would be just awful

[fiery nymph]

yay!

[woven hare]

photochad propaganda

[woven hare]

ture...

[fiery nymph]

i think im going to stay at 149/150 i dont want to use bloodstone

[ancient gyro]

just what I need, less skill expression by adding another tag that requires little risk yields

[viral raft]

least stupid r/balatro user

[woven hare]

OHHH THATS what the number means

[serene forge]

green joker naneinf

[versed sable]

LOL

[woven hare]

green joker naneinf

we love addition

[viral raft]

you can make the same logic with 90% of the jokers 😭

[shell dagger]

ihate addition

[viral raft]

like for real naneinf players in reddit are the worst

[woven hare]

you cant naneinf with rebate therefore it sucks ass

[viral raft]

like the biggest frauds eveer

[pallid galleon]

ok but

[pallid galleon]

lets not pretend that green joker isnt literally the most chud joker in the game

it reeks of chud

[woven hare]

idol is probably the worst joker in the game

[viral raft]

Trash vs garbage

[fiery nymph]

i kinda dislike grimbo though

its one of my least fav hand scalers

[viral raft]

i want to cry 😭

this dudes believe that naneinf is the objetive of the game

[woven hare]

banner naneinf

[viral raft]

localthunk didn't even designed the game to play naneinf

omg

[serene forge]

stuntman can naneinf so why can't runner 🙄

[pallid galleon]

green joker = turning your brain off

[fiery nymph]

how many stuntmans naneinf 😭

[woven hare]

plasma

[fiery nymph]

still takes a shit ton

[woven hare]

certificate = ough

[viral raft]

guys plasma is the best deck ever because you naneinf with that

[wild lagoon]

the amount of times i’ve gotten bloodstone a1s1 and have been ONE dollar off has been the most annoying thing

[serene forge]

that's a good thing

[wild lagoon]

don’t you dare talk about my beloved bloodstone in such a way

[fiery nymph]

how nice of the game

[ancient gyro]

so many ppl will not be gunning naneinf if plasma didn't exist

[viral raft]

alert???

[viral raft]

least useless bloodstone run without daddy dice:

[wild lagoon]

also anaglyph deck black stake has been tearing my ass up

[fiery nymph]

just dont skip

[woven hare]

500 socks

[wild lagoon]

STOP WHITE STAKING MEA

[serene forge]

stop taking bloodstone and you'll win more

[viral raft]

don't skip

just skip when you know is worth doin it and if theres alot of money in between

[wild lagoon]

any advice for yellow purple stake?

[viral raft]

try to play consistent hands

[serene forge]

not using bloodstone

[wild lagoon]

I skip blinds for only 2 tags, 25$ from boss blind and neg joker

[pallid galleon]

reroll u til you start with bloodstone and dice shop 1

[serene forge]

don't skip for negative

[woven hare]

always skip when uncommon tag it could bean

[fiery nymph]

bean into ouiji

[viral raft]

ok this is actually 😭
try to skip around: Investemtn tags, econ tags, and maybe Handy tags

so you get good money easily

specially handy tags

[woven hare]

bro thats investment

[cosmic maple]

this is where the run ends🫡

[pale wolf]

naneinf will mostly die in the update 😈

[wild lagoon]

im happy to take notes on my 3rd week of playing this game but i honestly have been carried away like i didn’t sleep until 4am last night cuz i couldn’t stop playing

[viral raft]

yeah but the others are way better

[cosmic maple]

I needed like a negative skip or a voucher skip

[wild lagoon]

buying mobile balatro has been my downfall

[visual niche]

recipe for annihilation

[viral raft]

this is truly the balatro experience

[cosmic maple]

Why

[fiery nymph]

no more serpent ‼️‼️‼️

[woven hare]

just kinda play man its yellow we love yellow

[wild lagoon]

because i can just open the game on my phone and play in bed i dont need to physically get up to go to my desk anymore😭

[ancient gyro]

no more burger slop

[cosmic maple]

Imagine an egg 👀

[pale wolf]

yup yup

[cosmic maple]

Oh, good

[pale wolf]

and chiclet/bean fix

[wild lagoon]

i was almost late to work a few days back cuz i couldn’t stop playing on my lunch break at home 😭

[fiery nymph]

dont you have to perkeo to naneinf after this?

[shell dagger]

pretty much

[humble gulch]

Finally

[shell dagger]

juggle tag will still work

[ancient gyro]

imagine perkeo has a consumable cap

[pale wolf]

jugular tag

[ancient gyro]

in 1.1.0

[pale wolf]

(up to 15) when at 14

[ancient gyro]

like what happened with sts2 first patch

[woven hare]

chicot looking at my dagger

[humble gulch]

Trib*

[woven hare]

trib was my best run but i lost because the shops assfucked me

[ancient gyro]

whatever the minimum for cryptid naneinf is, half that
