[compact gazelle]

only one ive watched more than
a few episodes with a cousin or friend
is spy x family

[solar meteor]

we’re barely into arc 7

out of like what 10

i can’t get into spy family

[pale wolf]

i dont know i watched the first 2 seasons of the anime right after the second finished airing way back then

and then i forgor about it

[compact gazelle]

i liked it :3

[solar meteor]

it’s ok

[earnest flame]

I was trying to tell why no one should watch SAO because its such hot garbage and absolutely awful with the sister thing but some words are censored it seems

[solar meteor]

i just can’t watch it alone like some other series i liked

[pale wolf]

anyways it's devastatingly late for me goodnight blatro
maybe next time ill make a thread for the anime convo 🦓

[compact gazelle]

sister thing

[solar meteor]

good night streaks

[compact gazelle]

“sister thing”
what’s wrong with half of anime doing sister things

[earnest flame]

because they are not things you should do to your sister

[solar meteor]

generic protagonist #3

[compact gazelle]

no i know lol

[solar meteor]

and crime references

[compact gazelle]

the sentence was in the sense of
what’s wrong with them

[solar meteor]

or so i’ve heard

[cosmic sun]

[compact gazelle]

why is that

[pale wolf]

idk why people hate the cousin plotline in sao so much, its played as a tragic tale not a fantasy

[compact gazelle]

also which show were you referring to

[solar meteor]

characters aren’t interesting enough, world building isn’t interesting enough, conflict isn’t relatable enough, characters are more idealistic than realistic like anya for example

but it’s still a good show

i didn’t watch past season 2

[compact gazelle]

all this sounds about right
its been a while so I don’t remember everything but yea that checks out
I just watch it with the expectation of a silly fun anime and its good at that

[solar meteor]

yeah i got one of those too

it’s just in the form of a manga called kagurabachi

[compact gazelle]

what’s that about

[solar meteor]

kid finds out about fathers death, realizes that it’s a tale about ||japanese oppenheimer and samurai h*tler disagreeing on some things||

[compact gazelle]

petals of reincarnation vibes

:3

[solar meteor]

and it’s a high quality shounen

paneling and dialogue is insane

[brave pecan]

holographic tag finally being useful for once

[solar meteor]

how to unlock scribbly

[brave pecan]

brainstorm?

discard royal flush

[solar meteor]

the

the scribbly

[compact gazelle]

dialogue cripples a lot of media by just
being bad :<

[earnest flame]

what made you take it

[compact gazelle]

good dialogue is a miracle

[brave pecan]

i just did it because why not

[solar meteor]

also manga author knows how to draw women

like

zamn

one out of many

[compact gazelle]

wowie
99% of media can’t

this is cause for celebration

🎉

[cosmic sun]

wdym women aren't built like one piece

[solar meteor]

or fair retail

might have a slight bias for tomboys

[compact gazelle]

hey at least it’s something

[solar meteor]

my preference is a playground swing between athletic tomboys or japanese goth girls

[ebon condor]

why go for tomboys when you can go for boys boys ❓

[solar meteor]

im good

[ebon condor]

more for me

[solar meteor]

more for the rest of us

take one for the team

[brave pecan]

is nat neg joker stencil decent

[echo owl]

I wanna ask if you’re in the early game should you not buy planets till you’re a $25

[echo owl]

Yea

[echo owl]

I know you’re supposed to get to $25 quickly but I don’t know the best way to spend money in the early game (or just in general honestly)

[brave pecan]

it's pretty good i'd suppose

[earnest flame]

Get some canios to keep him company

[earnest flame]

it depends so much on the deck and stake

[brave pecan]

i have the curse where every single time i take an edition tag i always get splash

[earnest flame]

there are so many things to consider that its pretty hard to type it out, if you want to actually learn how the early game works then doc for example explains it really well in his videos

[rustic haven]

in a multiplayer game rn

and i get ts

wtf

was trib btw

ankhd it

[sour thistle]

since when is there multiplayer

i wanna play multiplayer

[glass creek]

[echo owl]

[icy turret]

Here we goooo

[trail pier]

obelisk my beloved

[ornate orchid]

Lmao

NOOOO I CANT BUY NEGATIVE JONKLER

WHYYYYYY

[fringe nebula]

watch real animes

like orb : the movement of the earth

or vivy's fluorite eye's song

or frieren

[ornate orchid]

real anime
Frieren
Nice try broski

[fringe nebula]

fine

fullmetal alchemist

[tardy spade]

genuine question: Is it intentional that red seals cannot retrigger discard effects?

[fringe nebula]

who knows

[knotty zodiac]

no idea

but could you imagine red seal rebate with retriggers

[tardy spade]

that's what I'm thinking

I guess there maybe aren't enough discard synergies for it to be worth adding

[knotty zodiac]

how would it work with faceless tho?

[tardy spade]

the same way playing red seals works with flower pot

I.e. the red seals have no effect

would discarding a red seal of castle's suit upgrade castle twice?

What about for yorick?

[graceful talon]

what in the heck do u pick here

[tardy spade]

jimbo's siblings

[fluid dove]

3 jimbos and a ghost walk into a buffoon pack

[tardy spade]

square and invis probably

[weak relic]

Square.

[tardy spade]

Choose 2

[weak relic]

And probably invis

[heavy heron]

trraahhhhhhh

[potent tree]

well, 2 and a half jimbos

[fringe nebula]

[potent tree]

pick wee and invis

[echo sphinx]

[digital pewter]

||i already knew it was blueprint or brainstorm after guess 2, but i didn't have the letter amount||

[echo sphinx]

should i play it.

[digital pewter]

wait you don't know the letter amount before you get your first hint, right?

that's make it way too easy

[patent sail]

[humble gulch]

[knotty zodiac]

.out's screen reader thanks you

[humble gulch]

Thank you but I can't read, I have a severe glaucoma 🗣️

[echo sphinx]

free

[knotty zodiac]

scoring is overrated

[echo sphinx]

om

[fervent haven]

Good econ is key fs

[feral needle]

I am stupid I said Gold Deck when it's Yellow Deck

[knotty zodiac]

same thing

[fervent haven]

I get gold cards as early as possible and look for gold ticket

[errant brook]

I've debated taking uncommon skips ante 1 just in the off chance I get Midas Mask now

[fervent haven]

Not worth

[errant brook]

I got mime super early and it somehow 1/5 landed Ectoplasm

[fluid dove]

Super worth

[errant brook]

so golden ticket immediately became useless

[humble gulch]

Nope

[fervent haven]

Only worth considering investement or coupon ante 1

[echo sphinx]

me when i saturn

[fluid dove]

Should take the skip

[errant brook]

I take Investment or Rare tag if it's slot 1

[echo sphinx]

WHO ARE YOUUUU

[errant brook]

But that's just to YOLO

If I was just "trying to win" I would only do investment tag

[echo sphinx]

real gamblers will take charm skips

[knotty zodiac]

real gamblers will full skip

[echo sphinx]

no

[feral needle]

Considering that Consumables can technically score already (Observatory) it doesn't feel that out of place tbh

Holographic would be really useless though

Consumables score after Jokers

[knotty zodiac]

slight wheel buff!

[echo sphinx]

otw to observatory naneinf

[rustic haven]

does red or gold seal make more money in this situation?

[humble gulch]

No

[rustic haven]

oh

ok

[humble gulch]

I mean, it's more money to play red seals

[echo sphinx]

swap the red seal with nonredseal

[feral needle]

Red Seal earns more money yea

+$4 two times

vs. +$4 then +$3

[echo sphinx]

im blind i vant see golden ticket

the setup is optimal

[rustic haven]

AYEEEE

MAX BEAN BUG PULLED

[echo sphinx]

holy

[humble gulch]

I just read the question better

[rustic haven]

and wheel hit poly

😭

[humble gulch]

Gold seals makes more money

[feral needle]

a

curse of being awake at 1 AM

[echo sphinx]

om

[rustic haven]

is this bait or are u being fr

cuz i thought they would

[humble gulch]

They do

[rustic haven]

wait yea

red seal only makes it

4 more

whereas gold is 12 more

[humble gulch]

4x4 vs 7×3

[rustic haven]

ok

yea

[rustic haven]

7x7 if i play full gold seal

but

i dont have that many

lmao

[humble gulch]

7×3 per card

[rustic haven]

with ticket

[humble gulch]

21 dollars

[rustic haven]

wait i didnt pull it off

wtf

am i dumb

[feral needle]

i guess it's easier to look at one gold card with a red seal and compare it against one gold seal yea

[rustic haven]

😭

chat

does bean bug not work anymore

cuz

i did it right

but

it didnt werk

[errant brook]

Did you wait

[rustic haven]

?

[errant brook]

Like did you take a while to do it

Or did you do it right away

[rustic haven]

when it was debuffed i went to main meny

and

went back in

[errant brook]

Weird

[tardy spade]

why are there so many uncommon jokers?

[rustic haven]

it showed 14/9

rather than 14/14

:/

[patent sail]

to be fair i feel like a lot of uncommons are uncommon solely for some sort of gimmick that may feel too unusual for a common and like

not too straightforward for a new player? idk?

[tardy spade]

midas mask

burglar

madness?

[patent sail]

im not saying all of them are

[patent sail]

that is absolutely some uncommon material

[tardy spade]

no, I'm trying to think of the ones which would be

[patent sail]

like i personally cant think of any uncommon that doesnt feel like it deserves to be uncommon to me

maybe because im already used to the game

[tardy spade]

matador?

[patent sail]

yep

[tardy spade]

wait is that a common

[patent sail]

no

its an uncommon

[tardy spade]

I'm fact checking this

[rustic haven]

its an uncommon

lol

[patent sail]

certificate perhaps

idk the importance of it may be difficult to grasp

[tardy spade]

Matador's an uncommon! Who could have predicted?

[rustic haven]

seeing double shouldnt be a common

[alpine crescent]

i beat painted deck on purple stake again, after losing my progress on it
that was. kinda easier than i thought

[patent sail]

showman even

[rustic haven]

tbh

i mean

seeing double shouldnt be a uncommon

[tardy spade]

• certificate might be too good for a common

[tardy spade]

it should be the 3rd common xmulter?

[rustic haven]

yes

its too

niche and almost useless to feel worth the uncommon weight and price of it

[feral needle]

Uncommon as a rarity feels like where most of the jokers are at to make sure that you run into a Common you can use early

[rustic haven]

im not saying x2 is bad

[tardy spade]

is it just me or does mail-in rebate powercreep faceless?

[feral needle]

because "Common" doesn't necessarily mean "weak"

[rustic haven]

there is just better xmult in other uncommons and even commons

its like a nicer version of flowerpot

[patent sail]

absolutely untrue

duo except less rare

[rustic haven]

listen

i like seeing double

[feral needle]

Mail-in Rebate picks a random card in your deck and reads its rank to determine what it is, so yea

[rustic haven]

its the goat

i think its awesome

but its dropped for anything else i find xmult wise

[patent sail]

treat it as more picky The Duo

[rustic haven]

(if it supports my deck/build obv)

[rustic haven]

fair

[tardy spade]

should the Duo be rare along with all the other hand type xmulters?

[patent sail]

it is

[rustic haven]

its nice to pair with onyx tho

[patent sail]

all of them are Rare

[rough ether]

But should it

[patent sail]

its fine being that way

[tardy spade]

yeah should it

[rustic haven]

its a very easy 2x

[tardy spade]

the duo feels like the weakest of the set

[patent sail]

there should be rares that are introduction to rares in a way

[rustic haven]

i think thats why its a rare

[patent sail]

and those feel like a great introduction

[patent sail]

tribe

[rustic haven]

it is, but its also the easiest to activate

okay true

[patent sail]

tribe is the weakest objectively

[rustic haven]

x2 for flushes

but those are also

fairly easy

[tardy spade]

tribe has synergy with family

[patent sail]

pair easier any day

[patent sail]

if you can activate family you can activate duo

and even trio

[tardy spade]

oh...

yeah

[rustic haven]

😭

[tardy spade]

alright fair

[feral needle]

contains is a powerful word

[rustic haven]

true

its not a to-do list

[tardy spade]

4 of a kind does not contain a 2 pair

[patent sail]

also no

if your flush has 4oak it turns into 4oak because its higher in the list

[rustic haven]

i think they mean f5

[tardy spade]

yes but if your flush has 4oak and you play it, it scores as a 4oak but still activates tribe

[rustic haven]

what...?

[feral needle]

Two Pair specifies in its text as two cards of one rank and two cards of another

[tardy spade]

fair

[tardy spade]

what I said

[patent sail]

atp duo is easier 😭😭😭

you work with what you get but

if you can play any 4oak both family and duo will work

[tardy spade]

if you play a 4oak where all 4 cards are the same suit, and then a 5th card of also the same suit, it activates tribe

[tardy spade]

and Trio

[rustic haven]

even without scoring?

[tardy spade]

yep

[rustic haven]

wtf

i thought it was scored hand

not played hand

[patent sail]

yup but here its a discussion of duo vs tribe

[tardy spade]

read the card

"If played hand contains a flush"

[rustic haven]

am no longer in game

[tardy spade]

not "if scored hand contains a flush"

[rustic haven]

i assumed the other

[knotty zodiac]

plenty of xmult worth keeping seeing double over

baron
loyalty card
flower pot
throwback
hologram/constellation/campfire and broke/need scoring now
DL that's not online yet

[rustic haven]

thanks for clarifying tho

[tardy spade]

same way you can play flushes containing a pair of a different suit with 4 fingers

[patent sail]

mhm yup

[tardy spade]

yeah, wording is important

[rustic haven]

what about my goat... htr

[patent sail]

if you didnt print a lot of jacks may be unreliable

[knotty zodiac]

add to list x)

[rustic haven]

lol

[tardy spade]

in the same way, 5oak wouldn't contain a full house but no card in the game requires your hand to contain a flush house

[patent sail]

one round you get x3, another all 4 are bottomdecked

[rustic haven]

whgere 10x for flush five joker

[patent sail]

seeing double is just free reliable x2

[karmic skiff]

Uh I’m soft locked?

[rustic haven]

yeah tell that to my discards

[tardy spade]

what did you do

[patent sail]

for which reason it feels perfectly fine to be an uncommon

[knotty zodiac]

hm speculatively making jacks when u dont have xmult. might be winning

[rustic haven]

what the hell 😭

[karmic skiff]

Idk

[feral needle]

mobile balatro is such an specimen sometimes

i'm lucky i haven't ran into any of those bugs lol

[tardy spade]

what happens if you reload

[patent sail]

perhaps but like if you didnt

[tardy spade]

go back to main menu and enter again

[karmic skiff]

In still here

[karmic skiff]

Oh good idea

[knotty zodiac]

ya i dont like htr much

[rustic haven]

or close the game

[patent sail]

do they make seeing double less reliable x2

no they dont

[karmic skiff]

Gang..

[rustic haven]

yes bc they give me a straight or 3oak or 4oak with every suit but a club

[karmic skiff]

I’m on ante 8 do I have to new run

Oml

[royal bobcat]

None of these bugs ever happened to me lol

[rustic haven]

close and reopen

[karmic skiff]

I tried

[royal bobcat]

Maybe I don't play enough

[tardy spade]

tell that to the boss blnid known as the Club

[rustic haven]

gg ig

[patent sail]

one suit changer and its all fixed

[tardy spade]

can you click next round

[patent sail]

that fair

[royal bobcat]

Bash your monitor with a leg chair

[rustic haven]

very original idea

[tardy spade]

and select blind

[karmic skiff]

What’s going on😭

[patent sail]

beat the Choose blind

[rustic haven]

using the time stone to put yourself in stasis ong

[karmic skiff]

Holy shit

[rustic haven]

LMFAO

[patent sail]

pick your spectral cro.......,,,, game really wants you to

[karmic skiff]

Yo I’ve never seen this b4💔

[tardy spade]

can you use a spectral card?

say that talisman

[rustic haven]

infinite ankh

[karmic skiff]

Oh I was gonna say it wasn’t working bc it was grayed out b4 but never

Hopefully my phone doesn’t explode

[patent sail]

that talisman

[karmic skiff]

But I’m kinda curious if it stays on my screen after I win

[tardy spade]

if you can still play yur hand then you can play around it for rthe last 3 rounds

you can laso using a spectral card

[karmic skiff]

Aw it just disappeared 😔

That was a fun glut CB

Glitch

At least I got out

[tulip berry]

Bro opened a pack mid round for a quick dopamine boost

[whole storm]

guys is it better to blueprint the chad or the photo

[random thistle]

Does anyone know if there are leaks for New updates somewhere

[rustic haven]

photo for scoring

[gray plaza]

Does Hiero/Petraglyph mess up the seed analyzer

[whole storm]

finally bet goldstake yellow deck 😎

[amber venture]

yoo

hit my first naneinf

[patent sail]

hologram carry

[dark shore]

who the fuck thought this was a good riffraff spawn

[alpine crescent]

should i

should i
sell the chad for the oops

[spring radish]

anyone interested in playing balatro with 3+ players? ignore if no

[alpine crescent]

wow thank you guys SO much

[spring radish]

sell blueprint

[brittle ocean]

How much are on the trousers

Oh nvm this is ante 10

[alpine crescent]

+82

[dark shore]

this game has like so many ways to molest my run

[misty mango]

I mean you had an ante to look for + mult

Or an empress

Still pretty funny though

[digital pewter]

hell yeahhhh

3 guess balatrodle

[stone shell]

look i know immolate is just good but itd be a crime to not do it

[digital pewter]

DOUBLE OBELISK BABY!!!!!

[uncut slate]

grim

[stone shell]

i learned today that dna and midas mask operates in the same queue

[lunar zealot]

double gay obelisk btw

[stone shell]

for joker order

[rustic haven]

immolate>

immolate grim

obv

[desert tinsel]

the fact that stuntman's minus hand size is orange but merry andy's is red makes me mad

[rustic haven]

would u guys go for flush or fish for queen?

i think im bad

at higher stakes

because i genuinely dont know what to drop for a worthy draw

like i know what wins

[desert tinsel]

spade draw is more likely

[rustic haven]

like are you always going to get out in 1? no ofc not i get that but it has been every fuck ass run tonight

i have not gotten past ante 1 without losing like $6+ in hands because i feel like my discards are just so trash by my own accord

[stone shell]

i would discard for flush and include the 5

[rustic haven]

but my thing is

[stone shell]

high spades or bust

[rustic haven]

the flush doesnt get me out in 1

but fishing for the queen could, and therefore i could not hit the queen and be even more fucked

[stone shell]

flushes can get you out in one hand but you need high ranks :P

[rustic haven]

eh ig its just

[rustic haven]

yes ik

im saying i know what wins its just i feel i always go for the wrong discard/hand in the moment

[stone shell]

guys did i do good this was my first ever run 🥺

[rustic haven]

ok well i drew a spade ace so i got out in 1 anyway

[stone shell]

on this account

[rustic haven]

LOL

[stone shell]

yo you got NO correlation with your unlock

yo what the heck is this 😭

[rustic haven]

[polar abyss]

Fello addicts, whats your most used jokers? I missed hitting 10k on blueprint and brainstorm

[abstract jackal]

as you can see i like face cards

[polar abyss]

Face cards are over powered don't blame you

[ivory barn]

🥹✌️

[abstract jackal]

got this insane run today

lost ante 12 because i didnt have steels

[normal trench]

Pain

[turbid nova]

Wild guess but you go into endless a lot right

[polar abyss]

ya, it's pretty much the main way I play these days go for naneinf's

[silk thorn]

i finally beat gold stake :D

[turbid nova]

Congrats

[silk thorn]

thanks :D

[abstract jackal]

what were the two other jokers?

[turbid nova]

chad and smth else

[silk thorn]

rental holographic chad and eternal holographic blue joker

[turbid nova]

I don't even use fortune teller that much anymore but I used it a LOT when I started playing

I like that it scales even when you don't have it

[abstract jackal]

does blackboard have potential

havent touched it once💔

[turbid nova]

It’s my fav joker in the game

It has such an easy activation requirement for x3 mult

I legit instinctively deckfix towards spades and clubs just in case it shows up

[normal trench]

Gold stake endless moment

[abstract jackal]

fair

whenever i see it im either on ante 1 or already deckfixed

[turbid nova]

I’d even take it ante 1 honestly

[clear mulch]

why is this chat r/balatro today

whats with all the face cards

[abstract jackal]

maybe ill take it more

[normal trench]

What?

[abstract jackal]

lowkey you opened my eyes to blackboard

[turbid nova]

Good to know

[normal trench]

What does this mean

[earnest flower]

hey who wants to play balatro but the player swaps every ante? i need 7 other people

[upper spade]

If I get lucky.
I can beat this without having to sell Luchador.

And I got lucky.
It went for Luchador first so I was able to rack up a ton of score on the first hand.

[abstract jackal]

gg!

[upper spade]

I was stuck with a level 1 Flush till ante 6.
Got Telescope on ante 7 and managed to get to a level 5 Flush.

But that's another deck Gold stake done.

[scarlet girder]

oh my god bro the soul cards

[upper spade]

After using Checkered deck for a while.
Seeing both Clubs and Diamond cards feels weird.

[scarlet girder]

this is so true

[abstract oyster]

The last 7 jokers for c++

[digital pewter]

woohoo!

what are they

[placid ridge]

Can DNA copy a debuffed card?

[stone shell]

yes

[placid ridge]

I am gonna believe you (doesn't matter too much lol)

ayyy you're right

thank you

[stone shell]

👍

[rocky whale]

can i get some tips on ghost deck black stake

[placid ridge]

I have so many jacks, hoping to get Hit the Road to finally get the gold sticker.

Conveniently I also need a sticker for The Family, so both are super viable with this run.

[frail flame]

hi

[abstract oyster]

Last to 6
They are
Droll joker
Midas mask
Bean
Stone joker
Seltzer
Invisible joker

[digital pewter]

oh yeah, some of those might be a bit rough

[abstract oyster]

Couldn't find a single bean after ante 7

[digital pewter]

all i can really recommend is trying to go crazy with econ

things like seltzer and bean are the biggest problem

invis can also be bad just because it's a rare

others should be manageable

[abstract oyster]

Midas mask is hell for me
I have a skill issue with it

[digital pewter]

well, the thing is that you don't even necessarily have to play into it

as most jokers

but midas mask does have some really good potential solely due to golden ticket

[abstract oyster]

Uhm i should get greedy?

[digital pewter]

what ante are you

[abstract oyster]

1

[digital pewter]

probably just skip it

[abstract oyster]

Literally first pack

[digital pewter]

an ante 1 rental that does nothing for scoring will just kill you lol

oh yeah what deck are you playing

[abstract oyster]

I won a run before with Flash card but my econ was like dna+gold card and Rebate

Rental of coursr

[glossy forge]

Im running polychrome 4oak five, my deck needs a little bit of fixing. Do i replace the trading card or andy for Hack?

Or keep my current jokers?

[lilac moat]

Quite risky

Im sorry Chicot even if you have chips the banana is better

[hearty tusk]

I just fucking lost this run because I DIDNT CHECK THE BOSS FOR THE NEEDLE GOD DAMN IT

IT WAS A PERFECT RUN

[alpine crescent]

do you. really need dna

[hearty tusk]

NATURAL NEGATIVE BRAINSTOEM

AND I LOST IT

[upper spade]

I got really lucky at the start and just started building Tens.

[terse vale]

rebate const

you win anyways

still sad tho

[hearty tusk]

I fucking died

[terse vale]

oh wait

[hearty tusk]

Win wat

[terse vale]

it said you lost sorry

[hearty tusk]

Your hearts?

[hearty tusk]

Indeed😔

[alpine crescent]

barely won Abandoned Deck on Orange Stake

[floral mural]

why go for the trib build on abandoned tbh

[celest olive]

did square joker look like this in the alpha and beta or something? it's so cursed lol

[tacit stream]

yes, square joker being square shaped was a "post release update" thing

[obsidian quiver]

Idk I found soul card and had a few kings and queens

[hollow moss]

Yoooo real quick

It's high card I level if I wanna get real far with this setup right?

[floral mural]

do you prebuild faces on abandoned of all decks? doesnt sound very good

[floral mural]

yeah

although some gold cards for econ wouldnt be unreasonable to do

[past locust]

Unholy pull

Ty Chaos

[azure copper]

free win

[cedar sable]

ankh burnt joker

[azure copper]

yeas

[cedar sable]

and like

play high card till the end i guess

[past locust]

Before the icecream is reaching 20k

[past locust]

WITHOUT KING

[cedar sable]

or just pairslop

[cedar sable]

do it

[past locust]

Nah, highcard

[cedar sable]

maybe you get perkeo

and uhh

stencil naneinf

[amber venture]

man

[past locust]

Lvl 20 hughcard

[cedar sable]

actually

you can't

[past locust]

Chicot

[amber venture]

fuh u

[past locust]

?

[hollow moss]

Thank you! Yeah I'll get myself a couple!

[cedar sable]

(not eternal stencil)

[cedar sable]

why

[amber venture]

i got yorick

[cedar sable]

still better than chicot

yorick is just

discard spam

i mean sure chicot does "disables" boss blind

[whole storm]

why disable in quotations?

[unkempt relic]

yorick is literally the best legend for gold stake?

[unkempt relic]

because it reverses it

[cloud sinew]

for some of them

[unkempt relic]

yea

[hollow moss]

I already have some gold seals for emergencies but I need to fix my deck up

[turbid nova]

the game wants me to win today it seems

[cloud sinew]

hiker would be good there actually

[turbid nova]

yeah I'll take it

[cloud sinew]

and id probably drop bloodstone for dusk

[echo sphinx]

aww yissssss

[turbid nova]

I'm kinda one shotting everything rn though

I'll keep bloodstone as a plant safeguard

[shell dagger]

not very safe smh

[echo sphinx]

and photo as a head safeguard

boom

[past locust]

Blackhole or trance ny other king

[echo sphinx]

trance obvs

[cedar sable]

chicot doesn't really disables boss

it just gives the negative effects of the boss blinds

[shell dagger]

Might as well black hole, the blue seal is only gonna have 2 rounds to be useful

[unreal iron]

additional chicots can give you more hand size, less scoring reqs etc depending on the boss

[cedar sable]

this

[unreal iron]

thing is you dont really come across a chicot

[cedar sable]

use it on the needle

[unreal iron]

let alone an invisible copy to chicot

[cedar sable]

you got like a lot of hands if you have retriggers

same as the water

[past locust]

EVERY GODDAMN NEG TAG, IS ABSOLUTELY ASS

I hate neg tagging and getting ass

[cedar sable]

nvm

rip

[shell dagger]

That’s because most jokers are not useful in most situations

[cedar sable]

I can't read

[unreal iron]

"i hate neg tagging" and dude gets castle

albeit on ante 8 but why even skip during that time

[echo sphinx]

me when i have a busted ass build results in castle

[past locust]

110k with only 4 kings on high card

[unreal iron]

...why skip

[whole storm]

Guys how do i play around joker stencil? Ive never really used it

[unreal iron]

you literally miss out on shops sro

[past locust]

I want blueprint

[unreal iron]

find planet cards

also might not seem like it but +mult with 2 stencils could be better than no +mult and 2 stencils

[past locust]

Dang, thats like.... x6

[unreal iron]

you gotta do the math

[unreal iron]

stencil doesnt count copies of itself sro

so its a x16 x2.25

[shell dagger]

25*2.25

[past locust]

Dang

[unreal iron]

oh 25?

[cedar sable]

get more stencils or any retriggers

imo

[shell dagger]

Well it doesn’t count itself

(Or other stencils)

[cedar sable]

get showman

stencil build

[past locust]

No observatory

[unreal iron]

yeah but if the joker lineup is filled it becomes x1 only

[past locust]

But I'm keeping my plutos

[unreal iron]

i thought the first one is only x4 due to the fact that it still takes a joker slot

[shell dagger]

No

That’s what doesnt count itself means

Remove 4 jokers and the 1x goes to 5x

1 -> 5 is +4

[past locust]

Dumb bitch
Disabled the wrong one

I can discard

An get castle

Castle did, infact

Have no uses

[whole storm]

stencil part 2, idk if i should remove any 😭
i love this run

[past locust]

Other than discard value

[past locust]

Ion know, but thats x2 on stencila

[azure copper]

x6

[whole storm]

i might get rid of throwback

[past locust]

Shit

I mean.... It ain't that bad

I still only have 4 kinga

[echo sphinx]

blueprint :thonk:

what bro copying

keep all the jokers honestly

[past locust]

Bp cant copy stencil?

[pale wolf]

??

[echo sphinx]

unless if like card sharp shows up

[echo sphinx]

blueprint can copy stencil but it is not a stencil

move it to bbc

[pale wolf]

2x2x1.5x1.5x2x1.5x1.5xthrowbackx1.5

[whole storm]

stencil update 3, got rid of throwback but got negative on my blueprint

[turbid nova]

no plant or heart debuff

there was nothing to worry about

[past locust]

Do i ecto?

[pale wolf]

4x4x1.5x1.5x4x1.5x1.5
nice

[past locust]

I can sell ice cream tbh, its alr at 10 chips

[pale wolf]

why would you need to sell ice cream

[azure copper]

yessss

[azure copper]

its negative

[pale wolf]

i mean, you should anyways

but it doesnt hurt ecto chances

[azure copper]

you cant negative negative cards

[past locust]

I just hope i get neg baron

[whole storm]

alright guys i won the green deck purple stake 😎
w joker stencil

[pale wolf]

...

🦓

[hollow moss]

You're getting FAR

[turbid nova]

throwback carried

[past locust]

Cardsharp

This might be w

[hoary moon]

if theres no antimatter in the next shop i probably die

[silk thorn]

charge your phone

[azure copper]

hope you get the ticket skip lmao

[past locust]

RQFFIIF3

[cedar sable]

for stake ideas can i put it in here

[hoary moon]

WHAAAAT

im still alive

[cedar sable]

i forgot negative tag skip won't do anything at this moment

wait nvm

wait no I'm dumb

[bleak blaze]

I think I suck at endless 😭

[cedar sable]

i mean the scaling goes crazy at endless

[bleak blaze]

Been trying to do unneeded naneninf forever it feels like and have barely cracked e100

[cedar sable]

what's your build

[hoary moon]

im getting horrible voucher luck so i might die

[cedar sable]

rip

[bleak blaze]

Its always Baron Mime

[hoary moon]

anything but baron mime doesnt work

[cedar sable]

stencil naneinf tho

[bleak blaze]

Vouchers, spectrals, and money are my biggest weakness

[cedar sable]

you might want to get some gold cards then

for rerolling

for spectral cards

i think

use sixth sense

[cedar sable]

at early game definitely

[ionic jungle]

I cant believe this stupid achievement is rarer than completionist

[hearty tusk]

I am pretty sure money is everyone'z weakness

[hearty tusk]

Nobody pays it a mind, thats why

C++ is popular

[ionic jungle]

I guess

[hearty tusk]

And its the ultimate goal

[ionic jungle]

it was pretty easy to do

[hearty tusk]

I hope it was

I hope you enjoyed it

[ionic jungle]

it took 1 run

[ionic jungle]

I did not

[hearty tusk]

Bummer

[ionic jungle]

yeah

[hearty tusk]

Youre gonna enjoy the next one

I hope

[ionic jungle]

but now I have a semi cool achievement

[ionic jungle]

I might

[hearty tusk]

Perhaps

Have a shoe for your achievement👞

[ionic jungle]

thanks

[hearty tusk]

Matter of fact, here's the other shoe, you deserve it

👞

[ionic jungle]

wowzers

[celest olive]

hey im on ante 2 on purple stake, should i use ankh on hanging chad or constellation

[whole storm]

holy card skin

[celest olive]

ty

red seals appear as "1 more" stickers

cuz persona 5

[whole storm]

tuff

[south cobalt]

Should I get rid of anything for photograph?

I’m playing flush fives with lucky heart kings

[celest olive]

but what do i do though

[azure copper]

smiley

[south cobalt]

Thank you I was thinking about getting rid of smiley but wasn’t certain

[azure copper]

np

[celest olive]

is double chad or double constellation better

[south cobalt]

what do I get rid of next if I find like a brainstorm or a blueprint?

[azure copper]

depends

i prefer chad

[celest olive]

on what

[azure copper]

maybe scary face

and go for flush five/high card

[hearty forum]

Hello fellas

[azure copper]

what build are u doing

and do you need more card activation?

[celest olive]

pair

[hearty tusk]

LAWD HAVE MERCY WHAT IS THAT CARD SKIN
-# amazing

[celest olive]

i mean if i get photograph i get insane xmult

[azure copper]

like double chad photograph would be free win

yeah

[south cobalt]

do I take the negative skip tag for the funnies

[azure copper]

lmao

[primal heath]

yes

[azure copper]

i would tbh

[south cobalt]

this was the funniest run I’ve had

I had flush five unlocked by ante 2

[hearty tusk]

Absolutely

[azure copper]

now hope for negative showman

into negative socks x 10

[south cobalt]

it has been done

[celest olive]

nvm doesnt even matter i fucked up my run cuz im braindead

[azure copper]

what happened

[raven raven]

just for these negatives to be the most useless jokers to improve the run

[azure copper]

you can never know!

[south cobalt]

I got baseball card and now I’m making 18m this was a great idea

[weary whale]

Infamous 6/5 negative invisible joker bug

[south cobalt]

Do I grab showman

[weary whale]

Depends how long you want the run to go for and if there’s any you’re willing to sacrifice a non-negative for

[south cobalt]

Maybe get rid of trading card?

[exotic silo]

Level 61 Pair, I had so many Blue Seals that I could reliably draw 2 of them every round, and sometimes the entire hand would be blue sealed lmfao

[misty mango]

Trading card is probably done yeah

[tawny bough]

Chad defo

[misty mango]

Blue pilled

[tawny bough]

Unless u got blue seal then could be constellation

[exotic silo]

if this had Purple Stake blind scaling, I would have probably gotten out of Jolly Joker for a Campfire I did see

[terse vale]

dont use ankh

[south cobalt]

first reroll after showman no way

what do I do now

[weary whale]

I just won a very lucky pair build run on Purple stake

Gambled a lot on skip tags (Anaglyph Deck), got lucky to get Pair to level 9, lost the run but saved by Mr. Bones, got Blueprint to retrigger The Duo and/or Card Sharp, and found a Supernova in Ante 8 to win

Lost on Ante 9 small blind too lmao

[weary whale]

What’s between the photograph you have and the Showman

[south cobalt]

The non negatives are: scary face, showman, lucky cat, photograph, and sock n buskin

all my kings except from like 2 are luckies

[celest olive]

i lost straight after

[celest olive]

why

[unreal iron]

cuz ankh is extremely situational

[celest olive]

i was ante 2 lol

[weary whale]

Maybe get rid of scary face?

[unreal iron]

other than soul, black hole and immolate i honestly feel like most of the spectrals are situational

maybe not the seal ones but the rest are

[south cobalt]

yea probably since lots of my kings are also foil anyway

[celest olive]

ive never had soul before

[unreal iron]

bummer

you will eventually

[gentle basalt]

how do you consider immolate non situational, but trance/talisman/medium sitatuonal

[unkempt relic]

how much do u play

[celest olive]

idk

[unreal iron]

you still prefer to immolate like 99% of the time

[unkempt relic]

immolate is a win win

but sometimes

[gentle basalt]

not true, but also, thats not what situational means

[unreal iron]

seals are alright

[south cobalt]

LOLLL

NO WAY

[unkempt relic]

if u get like a red seal king in the hand with immolate then it sucks

[unreal iron]

yeah assuming a standard a8 gs run immo is amazing through most of the run

[south cobalt]

what do I do now

[unreal iron]

sell all your negatives 🙏

[unkempt relic]

correct

[unreal iron]

what do you even have lmao

[south cobalt]

I have baseball card bro that’s value

[gentle basalt]

situational => value of the thing changes very much depending on specific cases
i think medium/trance provide very consistent values, that does not depend on your specific case
immolate can be better, but that does not mean its not situational

i think its definitely trance over immolate though for gold stake (assuming no blue seal already)

[weary whale]

I’d either stay away from it or sell Showman

[unreal iron]

i shouldve added the seals too beforehand tbh

you'd always rather have seals

but thing is 20$ is 20$

comparing a purple or even a blue seal to an immolate it really makes the seal cards less valuable

[south cobalt]

The run is nearly dead anyway sadly

I need the idol or it’s just ggs

[pale wolf]

baylaytro

[unreal iron]

gaylatro

[hoary moon]

straightlatro

[versed sable]

nuh uh

[hoary moon]

flushlatro

[ionic jungle]

should I grab idol

and if so what to replace

[hoary moon]

no

[ionic jungle]

ok

[hollow moss]

Once your deck consists of mostly the same card THEN you can consider it

[versed sable]

i assume you're gonna easily win ante 8 at this rate, so like
no need to gamble on an idol

[ionic jungle]

about what ratio

[severe arch]

What the fuck

[ionic jungle]

yea

[versed sable]

100:0

[hollow moss]

But now you might as well go for an ancient if iymt shows

[versed sable]

[severe arch]

I just got 2 legendaries from one booster pack

How is this fair

[versed sable]

fun

[hollow moss]

HOW

[ionic jungle]

what about 99:1

[ionic jungle]

screenie

[hollow moss]

Or like what's the seed?

[cedar sable]

holy shit

[versed sable]

idol will still feel like it has a 50/50 to kill you lmao

[ionic jungle]

wow

[cedar sable]

i got jumpscared by giveaway

the id was #234

balatro reference

[trail ridge]

i got 2 yoricks earlier

[versed sable]

yo rick
-yorick

[trail ridge]

genius

make this man president

[versed sable]

yorick president

the best president would give me X1 mult every 23 cards discarded

[trail ridge]

i’m gonna combust this is so genius

[hearty tusk]

Someone kiss me

[versed sable]

no

[hearty tusk]

Cuz i like being kissed when am getting FUCKED

[terse vale]

cus you wouldnt have any scoring

[celest olive]

wdym

[dapper gust]

I finally got my fist win
with a double pair no face card strat

[versed sable]

[trail ridge]

good for you

[dapper gust]

What deck should i try next,
red, yellow, green or black?

[ember solstice]

Run lost to not reading

[trail ridge]

yellow deck unlocks ghost deck so maybe that one

[dapper gust]

ill give it a try

[ionic jungle]

I love photochad

[trail ridge]

or just do the same deck on red stake to get zodiac deck

[ionic jungle]

I have a poly red seal king should I grab dna to copy it easier

[ionic jungle]

instead of card sharp

[trail ridge]

ghost deck and zodiac deck are my personal favourites

[versed sable]

yeah

[ionic jungle]

Okay

I don't even think i needed the sharp for 11b

Ok so boss is plant and I have no way of stopping it

Hm

[trail ridge]

whenever i see a streamer play balatro why do they want their ectoplasm to land on one specific joker?

[ionic jungle]

Cause some are better than others

[trail ridge]

so they don’t have to delete?

[ionic jungle]

Yeah

[trail ridge]

yeahhh ok

[ionic jungle]

Negative doesn't take up space so you can keep the joker

[versed sable]

jokers that they want to keep

[livid scroll]

because that joker is most likely to last longer and not to be sold

[ionic jungle]

peak

it had so much potential

[versed sable]

blueprint is never leaving*
but something random like abstract joker will go eventually

[trail ridge]

the plant and the arm are so annoying

[dapper gust]

This card seems kinda crazy

[trail ridge]

depends on ur build though

[ionic jungle]

not that good

[primal eagle]

it is

[ionic jungle]

imo

[trail ridge]

once i got a photochad from it

[ionic jungle]

cause I never get my card

also bad later

[dapper gust]

Cus like 😭
