[tulip oak]

im tired of taking wraith and getting vagabond

[modest mist]

4 fingers is uncommon

[tulip oak]

JUST GIVE ME BLUEPRINTTTTTT

[modest mist]

Baseball Card fuel

[fringe nebula]

selling 4finger might be the better choice if you don't have flat mult

[modest mist]

Wait I js win, don't I?

[drowsy rain]

The only way people rank balatro jokers are by how often they are taken, not by how good of a joker they are because this game is a roguelike

[modest mist]

Literally my entire Joker hand is comprised of Uncommons

[echo sphinx]

its gonna be about as useful as showman

[knotty zodiac]

marble joker is kinda bad if youre trying to play straights or flushes

[fringe nebula]

I rank jokers by how efficient they are

[echo sphinx]

except showman makes packs on average worse

[humble gulch]

Gg

[modest mist]

Hear me out: Hologram fuel

And it's at 3.75x rn

[cosmic sun]

I just mean if you remove those words it says "tier lists suck"

[knotty zodiac]

ya i think 4f goes soon

[drowsy rain]

yeah i caught that I just like talking

[echo sphinx]

four fingers is only alive because of its edition lmao

and rarity

[cosmic sun]

Tier lists suck but they generate discourse so like uh

[earnest flame]

[modest mist]

Good lord

[humble gulch]

Fuck

[fringe nebula]

[tulip oak]

[humble gulch]

FUCK

[frank grove]

What are your thoughts on bloodstone?

[echo sphinx]

8ball run from yesterday

[earnest flame]

why, spaceman probably has leveled up straight and 4 fingers let you do it consistently, also uncommon and 50 chips

[tulip oak]

peak

[frank grove]

balatro player when 1 in 32 chance for not getting 8ball tarot: this is guaranteed
balatro player when 1 in 32 chance to instantly die to bloodstone missing: this will never happen

[tulip oak]

i play checkered deck only blood stone is a delight

[knotty zodiac]

ya depends on planet levels

[fringe nebula]

I forgot bloodstone does exist

maybe it was never there

[echo sphinx]

bloodstone? whats that

[tulip oak]

paintbrush checker❤️

[cosmic sun]

idk sounds pretty mid

[humble gulch]

Yeah

[modest mist]

How do we feel abt taking this?

I rerolled a bit

[fringe nebula]

replace space joker

[modest mist]

With who?

[earnest flame]

certificate

[frank grove]

Cert

[echo sphinx]

holeh

[modest mist]

Poly Splash or Cert?

[echo sphinx]

space jojer for cert next

bro its not even a question

[rain temple]

had to take bloodstone on orange stake checkered deck

[serene forge]

certificate hologram holy

[frank grove]

Cert is already poly cause bbc and +.25x on holo a round

[rain temple]

worst mistake of my life

[tulip oak]

forgot holo was there😭

[cosmic sun]

I dunno about had to

[echo sphinx]

cert is everythng you like about marble joker

and more

[drowsy rain]

how space joker looks at me after it levels up my high card instead of my 8 pair hands

[serene forge]

holo joker fan

[earnest flame]

Well its a good question, could be that now with the certificate you might want to swap 4 fingers out and use space joker to help level up pairs or hc

[fringe nebula]

actually true ngl
certificate would give you more chips than marble

[earnest flame]

its not that simple

[echo sphinx]

me but fullhouse because i need the chipes

[serene forge]

space joker doesn't level up pair 26 times in a row
space joker levels up full hourse

[modest mist]

Also wdym fullskip?

[echo sphinx]

you are bad.

[tulip oak]

space genuinely waking up to my straight flush instead of my 10 consecutive two pairs

[modest mist]

Isn't that a bad idea?

[humble gulch]

Argil, I'm so sorry

[tulip oak]

ive failed them

[serene forge]

I love Half Jonkler

[cosmic sun]

Dew it.

[tulip oak]

me too

[fringe nebula]

I usually do it when there's literally no point in scaling further to win ante 8

[frank grove]

Cmon!!!!! It’s red DECK

[tulip oak]

high card builds are very fun

[echo sphinx]

what was in the lineup before that point lol

[frank grove]

😭

[humble gulch]

I don't like purple, man

[earnest flame]

I would take that as an insult but I already know your skill level after I saw your opinions about perkeo so

[knotty zodiac]

are they beating vv yet tho? depends on level

[frank grove]

It’s white stake they scored 200k last hand iirc

[fringe nebula]

300k violet vessel is not an issue at all there

[knotty zodiac]

oh its ws

[tulip oak]

how often should i reroll

[fringe nebula]

bro, it's ante 7

too late for a pivot

[drowsy rain]

uh oh springtrap not gonna like that

[tulip oak]

i basically never reroll

[humble gulch]

Gg

[tulip oak]

unless i have flash card

[fringe nebula]

I agree with hoshbomb that you are bad

[echo sphinx]

LOL HUGE

[cosmic sun]

...Would you not take Perkeo as a value generator?

[earnest flame]

who knows what their pair levels are since they have been carrying spaceman for a while, I just said its a good question

[humble gulch]

Why are you perishable

[frank grove]

They’re playing flushes aren’t they?

[tall sapphire]

does anyone else limits to x2 speed because you think that x4 will mess your brai nforever

[cosmic sun]

Scratching my head at these takes dawg

[humble gulch]

WHY ARE YOU PERISHABLE

💔

[echo sphinx]

i think 4x is too s l o w

[fringe nebula]

just another day in #🕹・game-discussion

[echo sphinx]

i need me 16x

[frank grove]

This is what you deserve for passing purple seals

[tulip oak]

BRO I TRIED PLAYING 1 SPEED IT FELT SO SLOW😭

felt like a snails pace

[earnest flame]

I guess, or straights, havent seen the planet levels, but usually you throw some other hands too during 7 antes

[knotty zodiac]

this is why i browse /r/balatro, for the nuanced high skill takes

[humble gulch]

Grr, tell that to my four gold cards

[tall sapphire]

yeah, x1 speed is way slow, x2 is perfect, doesnt mess my brain and it still feels quick enough

[cosmic sun]

Fuckers will take meet potential jokers over a Perkeo

😂

[humble gulch]

Shiny

[frank grove]

LMAO

[tulip oak]

4x speed after 3 days you can never recover

[drowsy rain]

When my day is ruined so I go on reddit so I can make it even worse

[tulip oak]

everything else feels like you’re going in slow mo

[fringe nebula]

you should always aim for flush 5 build to win gold stake

[humble gulch]

I CAN STICKER PERKEO

[tulip oak]

canio

[humble gulch]

GAHHHHHHHHHHH

[fringe nebula]

lol

[modest mist]

W!

[echo sphinx]

sell off a [load-bearing joker] for Invisible joker to copy your [Eternal Hack]

Imagine if you had a purple seal right now

[echo sphinx]

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

[tall sapphire]

legendarys on gold stake work differently than normal

[humble gulch]

Shut up

[cosmic sun]

gg

[knotty zodiac]

correct. pairs alway die to eye and needle anyways so why bother when you can play 5oak?

[drowsy rain]

Unoptimal, planet x scales faster so flush house should be the endgame build

[echo sphinx]

lmao die

[drowsy rain]

planet x is

five of a kind

never mind

[modest mist]

Also, this is lowk the boss blind

Am I cooked?

[frank grove]

No?

[cosmic sun]

ayo perkeo, why didn't you just sell it /s

[echo sphinx]

ehh youre fine surely

[fringe nebula]

you will get a perishable blackboard and perishable cavendish after this

[drowsy rain]

What is flush house again I haven’t played that hand in a million years

[knotty zodiac]

time to hold r

[tall sapphire]

correct me if im wrong, legendarys on gold stake dont show up if you sticker them right until u sticker all of them

[tall sapphire]

youre good

[knotty zodiac]

unbeatable finisher blind

[tulip oak]

like the planet card?

or the actual hand

[drowsy rain]

Yeah

[cosmic sun]

[patent sail]

todays balatrodle SUCKS ewwwwww

[cosmic sun]

[frank grove]

If you haven’t stickered a legendary the seed gets filtered so the first soul will generate the non stickered one iirc

[tulip oak]

whats that

[patent sail]

you know what wordle is

essentially that for balala jokers

[modest mist]

What's this deck I unlocked?

[cosmic sun]

My last one was Trib and fortunately I let it rot and do nothing for posterity

[frank grove]

[tall sapphire]

Abandoned, start with no face cards

[patent sail]

[echo sphinx]

ggs lol

[tall sapphire]

[patent sail]

[knotty zodiac]

[cosmic sun]

Last legendary Trib and last sticker was Baron

[patent sail]

last legendary for me was plinko

[tulip oak]

3 tries

[drowsy rain]

this should be your deck you are a bus

[tulip oak]

ez

[humble gulch]

Anyways

[cosmic sun]

I basically let both of those jokers get carried

[patent sail]

3 tries too but i HATE that joker okay

[cosmic sun]

Baron was carried by my fat Grimbo

[frank grove]

Wow imagine if you had anything to copy with perkeo right now

[knotty zodiac]

im a tombus. im not like the other buses

[modest mist]

Also entered endless to js lowk do this

[tulip oak]

damn why

[drowsy rain]

the buses do get a little quirky at night

[tall sapphire]

what deck should i do for Gold Stake now, I have Ghost Deck and i have Red Deck completed

[humble gulch]

I had mars but that wasn't enough

[tulip oak]

[patent sail]

wait do you still have yesterdays balatrodle

[tulip oak]

[tulip oak]

Also, new boss blind for the collection! Which two do I have yet to fight?

[tulip oak]

jackpot

[humble gulch]

Huh

[patent sail]

looking for copper found gold

[lunar zealot]

You are missing the weakest boss blind and the strongest boss blind

[tulip oak]

acorn and purple cup

[cosmic sun]

Actually pains me that chad is there

Because of the money

[patent sail]

Coughing baby (acorn) and hydrogen bomb (ourple vessel)

[lunar zealot]

amber acorn flips and shuffles all your jokers

[cosmic sun]

Sad when Vamp is the greedy play

[patent sail]

acorn does NOTHING

[lunar zealot]

violet vessel is x3 the normal blind size

[tulip oak]

amber acorn only appears when i have blueprint or brainstorm

idk why

[patent sail]

x6 but x3 the normal boss size

[cosmic sun]

versus the sun exploding (crimson heart)

[lunar zealot]

you get the idea

[drowsy rain]

amber acorn: does nothing then dies

[modest mist]

Will they show up in endless?

[lunar zealot]

rate my top 10

[echo sphinx]

what do you do here

[modest mist]

Or do I have to go to a new run?

[lunar zealot]

every 8 antes

[frank grove]

Yes every 8 antes

[humble gulch]

Gg

[cosmic sun]

Go next or buffoon pack it's your choice

[lunar zealot]

more specifically whenever the ante is a multiple of 8

[fringe nebula]

hope for immolate 🗣️

[drowsy rain]

also doesn’t help that the weakest boss blind also has a tech

[lunar zealot]

8, 16, 24, 32

[fringe nebula]

(open buffoon)

[lunar zealot]

there is no ante 40

[patent sail]

yesterday i had acorn and he actually didnt even shuffle anything 😭😭😭😭

[echo sphinx]

rental eternal i shit u not

[cosmic sun]

What is the consensus between no jokers ante 1 and the first shop buffoon pack?

[humble gulch]

Gg

[patent sail]

i forgot to hold my +mult

i played the hand

+mult was still at the front

[lunar zealot]

i usually buy the shop 1 pack 99.9% of the time

[patent sail]

suffering from success

[strange abyss]

I near always take the 1st buffoon pack

[lunar zealot]

but if there is a saturn in the shop then take it

[tulip oak]

i love how all the legendary’s have their main ability be a reference that still makes them strong instead of just “plus 18 gazillion mult”

[lunar zealot]

because with saturn you can clear ante 1 jokerless with straights

[tulip oak]

also a chip legendary would be peak

[patent sail]

that would be boring honestky

[frank grove]

I’m always opening buffoon pack unless it’s Saturn in the shop or it’s checkered/plasma and I’m feeling too greedy

[lunar zealot]

LMAO

[echo sphinx]

cryin again

[drowsy rain]

More venus than mars #ok

[cosmic sun]

I usually just end up with no jokers only if Saturn or if the pack has two actually horrid picks

[patent sail]

diarrhea forever vs diarrhea for 50 years

[knotty zodiac]

you play balatro for winstreaks, enjoy extreme couponing, and your car either gets 100mpg or has 1000hp

[tulip oak]

fr

[humble gulch]

GSG

[modest mist]

What's the Ante 16 chip requirement?

[lunar zealot]

i don't have a car and don't go for winstreaks

i do however have dozens of coupons

so you're very correct

[tulip oak]

spare trousers this list is goated

[cosmic sun]

"eternal rental showman or eternal rental flower pot" type pack

[drowsy rain]

yo what is the deal with the lack of mars

[frank grove]

8e20 for white iirc

[lunar zealot]

fpot

[drowsy rain]

mars is a top 3 planet

[humble gulch]

8e20 white stake

[modest mist]

Oh.

i don't know if I'm getting that far

[cosmic sun]

You know I always want to give flower pot a chance but I can't win those battles

[cosmic sun]

😭

[tulip oak]

this is my top 10

[patent sail]

wait what

[modest mist]

like, this is what I have rn

[lunar zealot]

you don't play 4oak or two pair with fpot

you play straights

[cosmic sun]

fpot splash though

[tulip oak]

no one talks about blue joker idk why

[patent sail]

i swear it was higher am i dumb

[tulip oak]

blue is very good early game

[lunar zealot]

blue joker is great

just falls off later

[echo sphinx]

ante 2 needle with 3 mult red card, wyd

[humble gulch]

Okay

[knotty zodiac]

i think it's correct not to open the buffoon on plasma. might be for checkered as well

[cosmic sun]

It's not even that I wouldn't take a flower pot but with those tags it is definitely not convincing

Now people would think differently about eternal rental cert

[tulip oak]

i love abstract

❤️❤️

[cosmic sun]

Obviously 💀

rebate

[frank grove]

i think so too but I don’t have enough practice on either

[knotty zodiac]

i think i play enough plasma. the expected value from the buffoon pack is exceptionally low on plasma bc of the number of useless jokers

[lunar zealot]

gotta get to work

it's ante 3 you're already behind

[cosmic sun]

Actually people should take more tagged certs early on

[tulip oak]

is credit card broken or just good

[lunar zealot]

credit card is pretty bad

[frank grove]

It’s fine

[serene forge]

I hate Bloodstone

[humble gulch]

I've done ante 8 bus, this is light work

[cosmic sun]

Shit is almost never greedy

[serene forge]

bad but inoffensive

[tulip oak]

fair

[knotty zodiac]

credit card is pretty good on black deck but kinda bad otherwise

[lunar zealot]

well okay here is credit card's best use case

[tulip oak]

why

[lunar zealot]

it buys for 1 dollar and sells for 1 dollar

therefore it is free temperance value

[patent sail]

campfire food

[lunar zealot]

that too

[tulip oak]

giftcard value

[serene forge]

I took a rental perishable blueprint to fuel a cert once then proceeded to get 1 gold seal out of 10 tries and didn't get a blue seal until my 14th hit

[lunar zealot]

but temperance is more general

[warm wedge]

why have cars when you could buy a bus

[frank grove]

also very early on on green cc isnt horrible

[knotty zodiac]

do u think rental cert is takable early (not on green deck)?

[serene forge]

buses are slow

[cosmic sun]

ngl that was biblical greed on blueprint

[lunar zealot]

depends on deck

[serene forge]

was it

[cosmic sun]

either that or the most horrendous luck

[patent sail]

its unreliable

[lunar zealot]

a rental anything is never takeable ante 1 even if it's like red card

[cosmic sun]

either way the gold seals would kinda help?

[echo sphinx]

green deck earns a bit more early i think its fine

[tulip oak]

fair

[serene forge]

rebate

[serene forge]

that was the logic

[lunar zealot]

truth nuke

also midas

[serene forge]

that gold seals would help me

[knotty zodiac]

any takable decks besides green/yellow?

[lunar zealot]

but apart from those two not really anything else

[serene forge]

and then I only got 1

[echo sphinx]

certo

[lunar zealot]

call me crazy

magic if and only if you can get triple hermit

but that's a crazy high roll

[patent sail]

anything that gives 3 or more dollars back

[drowsy rain]

rental golden joker is either +1 or net zero 🤷‍♂️

[cosmic sun]

I feel like cert's returns are waaaaaay too good

[modest mist]

R.I.P.

[serene forge]

red card is probably one of the worst rentals you can have early

since you're killing exactly what you need to fuel red card

[knotty zodiac]

i mean if you get a rebate any other single rental is prob takable

[cosmic sun]

Mhm that rental red card is delaying the red card popoff

[lunar zealot]

i thought we were talking about rental certi

[patent sail]

rental campfire 🐎🔥

[drowsy rain]

or flash card

like in general

[lunar zealot]

rentals are free temperance value though

[cosmic sun]

Could also just one round rental cert if you really felt like it

[lunar zealot]

so whenever you open an arcana pack buy a rental

[patent sail]

idk rental showman sounds worse

[knotty zodiac]

ya you said triple hermit makes rental cert takable so magic

so im saying rebate makes rental cert takable on any deck (but i would exclude this case)

[serene forge]

one of the worst

[drowsy rain]

early game rental scoring jokers are easy buys as long as their not eternal cus you can just sell them if you don’t need it to survive the blind

[echo sphinx]

surely there cant be anything worse

[patent sail]

rental bloodstone 🐎🔥🔥🔥🔥

[knotty zodiac]

ig i mean takable as in keep past end of round

[humble gulch]

[tulip oak]

pareidolia is a cool concept

[drowsy rain]

Why can’t I find trading card like ever

It’s like a shiny pokemon

[patent sail]

dagger and marble may be annoying actually

but not pareidolia levels of it

[drowsy rain]

Marble is way worse than pareidolia what

Marble is just bad

[tulip oak]

how come madness works with eternals but dagger doesnt

[drowsy rain]

pareidolia is kinda ok

[patent sail]

hologram

[patent sail]

one plant/mark and its over

[drowsy rain]

yeah just like how pareidolia is good with faceless you can’t be relying on finding other jokers

[patent sail]

i actually did have parei+faceless

rebate except free

thst run killed itself unfortunately

[proud dawn]

dagger effect is specifically tied to the destroyed joker with madness the joker destroyal and scaling are unconnected

[patent sail]

with dagger its a requirement, with madness its an annoying sideeffect

[tulip oak]

ohhhh

[strange abyss]

insane, maddening even

[drowsy rain]

WE all fed the madness jokers when we first got it

[queen current]

7 remain

[knotty zodiac]

hm

[lime remnant]

caught save scumming so balatro god punishes me

very questionable 4oak build run with only 6 jacks 😂

[echo sphinx]

i keep saying jojers

surely not

[knotty zodiac]

Jojers is just a reference to flash card clearly

hm more greed?

[echo sphinx]

mmmmm

looks fine tbh

[knotty zodiac]

as a discard?!

[unreal iron]

you survive big blind with stone card and squimbo i feel like

you could but isnt it better to be safe

[knotty zodiac]

im calculating bc i want the $5

[unreal iron]

i bet you can do it

[knotty zodiac]

but it's kinda tight

[cedar sable]

wtf

doc is streaming uma

[knotty zodiac]

squimbo is at 4 lol

[earnest flame]

What a first shop

[glass creek]

Now you can sell the hex for interest!

[knotty zodiac]

greed

[lost vault]

that blueprint aint even good cuh

even if u could afford it

[earnest flame]

oh really, shop 1 perishable blueprint is not good?

[echo sphinx]

no lol

[tacit stream]

obviously not lol

you're taking a potentially dud joker which dies before it starts to have better chances to shine

[echo sphinx]

om

ten dollars for hanging chad retriggers and dies is also terrible

[tacit stream]

chad when retriggering is basically +20(22) chips.

[lost vault]

no

its terrible

waste of money

[digital pewter]

chat does anyone know what kind of knife this most closely resembles irl

[lost vault]

the only good early game perishables are quick scoring jokers

ie popcorn

[tacit stream]

popcorn might as well be incompatible with perishable lol

[lost vault]

some king of ceremonial dagger

[echo sphinx]

economy also decentge

[digital pewter]

hmmm... good observation...

[earnest flame]

Is sarcasm a foreign concept here, and here I thought I made it extra obvious

[digital pewter]

actually looking at the art closely this thing makes no sense

[lost vault]

you wanna know how to make it really extra obvious
tone indicators

not everyone can easily pick up on tone

[digital pewter]

is the knife floppy????

[echo sphinx]

i once thought a popcorn can remained perished and i can just carry its corpse to sticker it

[lost vault]

its curved

like a ceremonial dagger

theyve got some odd shapes

[digital pewter]

but the beveling (i think that's the right name for it) is on both sides

[lost vault]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i know its not meant to be floppy lol

[digital pewter]

someone should make ceremonial dagger irl that'd be so fire

[lost vault]

dont most daggers have their blades like that

douvle sided

[lost vault]

true ture

[digital pewter]

on the side meant to cut, yeah

but it's supposedly curved

maybe the dagger has a distortion effect?

[digital pewter]

*so having it on both sides makes little sense

[lost vault]

pretty sure most ceremonial daggers are used for stabbing

or were

[digital pewter]

could be stabbing, could be slicing, just depends on the specifics i think

[echo sphinx]

or just etching crap into rock

[digital pewter]

i need to ping localthunk and ask this very imporant question about it NOW!

[lost vault]

i dunno brah

i think its just curved like that

as a design choice

imagine how uninteresting it would be if it was just straigjt

lol

[digital pewter]

here is my hypothesis

[humble gulch]

Daggers like that are made for cutting

[digital pewter]

made in a notes app

[lost vault]

what

[humble gulch]

Not even a war or hunt dagger, just a tool

[lost vault]

its specifically a ceremonial dagger

idk if that changes anything

[digital pewter]

bottom one is like if it were flattened out and didn't look curvy

[lost vault]

but why

[digital pewter]

top one is a view from the side with the weird distortion effect

[lost vault]

its curvy by design

w>

[digital pewter]

idk i had to make sense of it

[digital pewter]

[lost vault]

im very normal

[digital pewter]

this is critical information necessary for the survival of humankind

[digital pewter]

hi very normal, i'm justbearit++67|999inf|999ws

[lost vault]

mhmhm

:3

[digital pewter]

i had this really dumb idea

balatro but evil

[earnest flame]

thats black deck

[digital pewter]

and it'd just be a reskin of the entire game

like complete visual overhaul

and it's all just ceremonial dagger themed weird shit

ceremonial dagger mod

[lost vault]

huh

[earnest flame]

eternal riffraff should give you eternal jonklers

[lost vault]

i dont think dagger is supposed to have a distortion effect on it

i mean, look at the smog around it

[lost vault]

hell no it shouldnt

[earnest flame]

hell yeah

[lost vault]

that would make eternal riff raff unusable

[clear mulch]

haiaiaia

[clear mulch]

that would make it so useless

the people buying it would drop to zero

[earnest flame]

I would buy it even more

[digital pewter]

i'm thinking maybe it's vaguely drawn after this kind of dagger??

[clear mulch]

masochist

[digital pewter]

chinese mongolian ceremonial dagger

[earnest flame]

easy challenge runs randomly generated for you

[clear mulch]

i think you right

[lost vault]

not unlikely

see it isnt so weird for daggers to be curved like that

[digital pewter]

i still think it was just the bevel that confused me

[clear mulch]

wait this is the first time i think about the theming of ceremonial dagger

[knotty zodiac]

looks like it's made for slicing

[lost vault]

it sacrifices jokers

[knotty zodiac]

fruit joker 1.1 confirmed

[lost vault]

like some king of

[digital pewter]

also it's funny how there's just seemingly a random spike on the guard?

[lost vault]

ceremony

[lost vault]

wat

[clear mulch]

it's like his in some king of... snowgrav...e

[clear mulch]

what is that

[digital pewter]

this is what also led me to believe it was distorted

[lost vault]

i thought that was just shading

[clear mulch]

but why wouldn't the right of it be shaded too

left*

[digital pewter]

it's the same color as the guard and it doesn't look like shading to me

[lost vault]

cuz that sides in the light idk

[clear mulch]

light reflects from objects, it's like impossible for that to exist

[digital pewter]

but to the left of the dark line is more of the lighter blade

[lost vault]

i dunno

im just saying thats what it looks like to me

not definitively what it is

[digital pewter]

i thought it was some kind of weird spike on the handle which again, with it pointed weirdly up like that, led me to thinking it's got some funky curve

[lost vault]

maybe its pointed like that because of the shape of thr dagger

[knotty zodiac]

maybe it's a crack in the blade?

[lost vault]

doubt

but idk

[digital pewter]

ehh

it doesn't really look like one

[knotty zodiac]

never seen a protrusion like that from a blade guard

[digital pewter]

that's what i'm sayin!!!!

[lost vault]

so maybe its shading

[digital pewter]

i had it in this diagram on the top one

[lost vault]

w<

[knotty zodiac]

someone ping globalthink

[lost vault]

where

[digital pewter]

i was thinking it's just some weird spike

[knotty zodiac]

we must solve this rn

[lost vault]

that does not look like the same thing

[digital pewter]

because this is from a side on view and not the view from the joker art

[knotty zodiac]

justdrawit++

[digital pewter]

if what i think is happening in the joker art is happing

[lost vault]

if its not the joker art why is iy curved like that qwq

[digital pewter]

it's like at a half side view

[lost vault]

im so confused

[digital pewter]

hmmmmm

i need to find a better way to express this

[lost vault]

ots not a distortion effect

that would be so very random

and unfitting

ceremonial daggers arent some mystical objevt

theyre real things

[digital pewter]

ok that's it you're getting turned into +4 mult

[knotty zodiac]

i see what youre saying

but if it's attached to the bladeguard, that thing would be angled upward. would be counterproductive.

[lost vault]

hay!! my sell value is at LEAST 5

maybe 10 depending on who you ask

:3

[digital pewter]

with a giftcard maybe...

[knotty zodiac]

clearance sale voucher

[lost vault]

grr true

[clear mulch]

just eat some eggs

[lost vault]

yummy

[digital pewter]

always eat eggs before being sacrificed

[lost vault]

odd ceremony

[clear mulch]

yes! your blood will be more valuable

[lost vault]

but im in >w<

erm

what

[clear mulch]

you're getting sacrificed buddy

wdym what

[lost vault]

i know :>

[knotty zodiac]

5 stages of grief complete

[lost vault]

skipped straight to the 5th

[digital pewter]

man this whole mod idea is so edgy i'm cringing at the thought of it

[clear mulch]

whats it about, the message wont load

[digital pewter]

mod idea where it's basically a visual overhaul to turn balatro into evil balatro

[lost vault]

just think of it as freaky instead

[digital pewter]

do you know the game inscryption?

[clear mulch]

yes, never played it tho

[digital pewter]

that's a little bit of the vibe i'd wanna go for

[knotty zodiac]

on my wishlist, is it any good

[clear mulch]

i just know it exists

[digital pewter]

yeah

[lost vault]

yes ues ues yes yes 100x yes

its great

[knotty zodiac]

wait

[digital pewter]

it's quite cool

[knotty zodiac]

i think its in my library never opened

lmao

[lost vault]

qwqwq

[digital pewter]

crazy

[knotty zodiac]

too many games competing for my time

[digital pewter]

but yeah the mod idea would be an overhaul visually of like. everything

hand names, planets, joker names and art, boss names and art, etc

oh and the cards themselves

[lost vault]

what if there was a mod that turned every color in balatro a shade of pink

:3

[digital pewter]

seems pretty interesting

and would be hard to play possibly but still doable

i mean not really

[lost vault]

probably not even difficult to make

just a shader

lol

[digital pewter]

you basically just play balatro in black and white while adding a red filter with boosted brightness

[lost vault]

ive played balatro in black in white

[knotty zodiac]

we need new jokers tho

[lost vault]

its fine

pink joker

[knotty zodiac]

bubble gum joker

[lost vault]

+5 mult
meows when it scores

im just projevting

[knotty zodiac]

+8 mult at the end of every round
destroys itself if the mult exceeds 30

[lunar zealot]

seems situational

[knotty zodiac]

pretty niche ya

[lunar zealot]

too niche maybe

[lost vault]

pink joker is just vetter jimbo

[lunar zealot]

If it were common i'd like it somewhat

[knotty zodiac]

ya definitely common

[brittle ocean]

How about an Econ joker that hurts scoring

[lost vault]

evil pink joker
-1 mult
+4 dollar

:3

[brittle ocean]

-1 hand per round, +$7 or smth

[brittle ocean]

-1 mult 😭

[lost vault]

hehe

[brittle ocean]

Or x0.5 mult maybe. Maybe too much of buff to giant scaling +mult pair builds

[earnest flame]

business card is worse

business card is 2 hands for 0-5$ per round

[lost vault]

whats your point here

just cuz it hurts scoring doesnt mean it has to be bad

:3

also business card has synergies ig

[misty mango]

Death by needle

[earnest flame]

business card is already good and that would be better

another rebate

[misty mango]

And yeah it’s most fun when deckfixing and joker lineup change how Econ jokers work

[brittle ocean]

Needle still is 1 hand

[lost vault]

doesnt work like that

[brittle ocean]

Same as with troubadour

[lost vault]

proof: troub

yee

[misty mango]

I know but it would be funny

[brittle ocean]

Come to think of it

If you have troub and burglar what happens with needle

3 or 4 hands?

[misty mango]

You get burglar hands in needle

[lost vault]

4

burglar happens after needle

pretty easy

[knotty zodiac]

Kitchen Joker

[-1 ] hand size
+$10 at the end of the round
hand size decreases by 1 at the end of the round

[brittle ocean]

Eternal kitchen joker

[lost vault]

perishes at 0 handsize like a food joker maybe?

idk 1 handsize fucking sucks too

[frank grove]

if you made it be like a food joker you could sell whenever you wanted to

[lost vault]

um yeah

[frank grove]

how greedy can you be joker 😭

[knotty zodiac]

maybe its a bit too good bc you can sell it midround if youre in trouble

[frank grove]

i want more flat scaling econ options

[bleak blaze]

Fun runs tonight

Ran out of cards with the 18.25x glass jokers 😭 😭 😭

Too much glass

[brittle ocean]

Progressive tax

x3 mult
Lose 10% of money at the end of round

[flat tiger]

my glasses refuse to break when I get glass Joker

best I got before ante 8 with glass joker is like 2 breaks

[knotty zodiac]

+$1 at the end of the round
increases by 1 2 when you play a [straight flush] as the last hand of a round. hand changes every round

[bleak blaze]

I had a perkeo earlier so I just forced glass until it broke

Copied the Justice for like 8 antes

Tarot tycoon gambit 👀

[digital pewter]

what if i gave all the boss blinds a human sounding name and personality...

[flat tiger]

you baba?

[tall sapphire]

idk i feel like The Wall is already quite a good human nam

[digital pewter]

ah, true. i was thinking about bosses more like The Mark and The Flint

[tall sapphire]

hello my name is markiplier and today we will be flipping your face cards

[earnest flame]

Yeah we vagabonding

[hearty tusk]

4 vagabonds with only 2 consumable slots

[earnest flame]

Why not

[hearty tusk]

what are they achieving beside giving you a ×1.5 mult

[earnest flame]

Why not 5

[earnest flame]

Enormous amount of joy

[hearty tusk]

that's the right answer

now go get em son

[willow frost]

richest vagabonds ive ever seen

[earnest flame]

its not the jonklers its how you use them

[vale shale]

How good is 5 copies of vagabond?

Roffle video title

[earnest flame]

pretty good actually, it was smooth sailing from start to finish, ante 1 had 2 vagabonds and they kept on coming

Beat the ante 9 needle even

[digital pewter]

i'm gonna be making the plant continuously scream forever

[fiery crescent]

this is the greatest setup ive seen all month

we're so back

three guess balatrodle today

[glad scroll]

wtf is this joker build lol

[upper spade]

I have no comment.

[raven raven]

best egg ever

[pale wolf]

fun

[languid flower]

impeccable no-downside upping of temperance

[pale wolf]

balatrodle also in 3
||i missed the 50/50... or should i say 16/16/16/16/16/16||

[earnest flame]

one of the best

[digital pewter]

||ah, i went erosion, card sharp, flower pot||

[pale wolf]

||blackboard, card sharp, acrobat, flower pot, idol, and seeing double all share all categories||

[knotty zodiac]

tfw im a scrub in sts2

[digital pewter]

dang, so basically a 1/5

[pale wolf]

6 if you get the info for all the categories like we* did

[digital pewter]

balatrodlemaxxing

[sturdy lotus]

is wheel of fortune a troll card? ive literally never gotten a pull from it

[knotty zodiac]

it exists to punish us

[digital pewter]

the last balatrodle i did, i tried to put in blueprint and accidentally did blue joker when blue joker made no sense, so i somehow cheated myself out of a 2 guess win

[sturdy lotus]

so it is? i dont know if my game is bugged or something but ive NEVER gotten something out of it, statistically its damn near impossible for that to happen

[pale wolf]

truth
but your game probably isnt bugged, you're just unlucky

[sturdy lotus]

ah geez

[digital pewter]

it's not necessarily a troll card, but that 1/4 really starts to feel like a 1/4

compared to a lot of other probabilities

[echo sphinx]

take your pick

[knotty zodiac]

it's probably memory bias

[knotty zodiac]

hm you have chip, i think i take immo

[pale wolf]

just to ask, you're not like, playing the same seed over and over or savescumming the same wheel, are you? 🦓

[digital pewter]

immolate here is probably better given you're broke

[pale wolf]

because it is deterministic based on the seed

[mental bloom]

don't get scammed on the size! small jimbo costs more than big jimbo

[pale wolf]

shrinkflation

[digital pewter]

ah hell nah we got shrinkflation in balatro

[digital pewter]

man you beat me to it

[knotty zodiac]

smaller costs more because it's more portable duh

[mental bloom]

lolll

[knotty zodiac]

wow

[mental bloom]

i hope to see that wee again

[pale wolf]

i even typod shrinkflatiron first and fixed it before sending

[mental bloom]

so long, partner

[knotty zodiac]

reg jimbo is just fine

[glad scroll]

I think you need more consumable card slots

[mental bloom]

true

and it keeps my interests

[earnest flame]

why though

[pale wolf]

wee should be $1 change my mind

[glad scroll]

To get more consumables

[digital pewter]

joker that has a 1/2 chance to give +8 mult

[knotty zodiac]

just make it spawn rental

[earnest flame]

I already had enough

[digital pewter]

joker that has 1/4 chance to give +16 mult

[mental bloom]

do we agree that 1 ecto counters painted deck and even gives you +1 hand size

[pale wolf]

yea painted gives a free ecto

but if you're already building into the strengths of painted deck then it might be detrimental

[knotty zodiac]

one problem is you need ecto to hit a joker u want to keep. cant always do it

[digital pewter]

the only thing is that it has to be a joker you plan on keeping around cause it's not like it's just a free slot again

[glad scroll]

You could get more tho

[mental bloom]

yeah like playing straights since hand size is bigger?

[mental bloom]

true

[earnest flame]

sounds like greed, I just take what I need

[mental bloom]

yup, gotta be lucky there

jimbo flawlessly carrying ante 1 😮‍💨

[digital pewter]

the goat

[mental bloom]

now kill jimbo

[digital pewter]

the goad

uh oh

now all my spades are debuffed

[knotty zodiac]

hm i take red card

[digital pewter]

you lose 2 mult from this interaction

[knotty zodiac]

its painted, u need the slot

[mental bloom]

exactly

[mental bloom]

predicted it

[digital pewter]

wow, i'm really a Psychic

[mental bloom]

alr let's see next ante

oh baby

[knotty zodiac]

hm u didnt like red card?

[mental bloom]

I know it's good but I'm used to always take something off of the packs

[knotty zodiac]

so whats the play here

[mental bloom]

oh well

maybe I can

[mental bloom]

I guess I can make square and red card scale and wait for some XMult

[knotty zodiac]

was tempted by flash card but i think youre right

[mental bloom]

I wouldn't mind flash card

[earnest flame]

xmult is for those that dont scale enough

[mental bloom]

and maybe i could get a 4 fingers

[knotty zodiac]

ya ig ppl who play white stake dont need xmult

[pale wolf]

tbh no point in playing straights when you have square

[earnest flame]

Optional in gs

[mental bloom]

right

[knotty zodiac]

lets see some winstreaks 🙂

[earnest flame]

I rather have fun

[mental bloom]

AHAHAH LOOK WHO POPPED UP FROM A PURPLE SEAL

[knotty zodiac]

translation: xmult is optional bc i dont mind losing

[pale wolf]

let me guess, red card is +0 🥀

[mental bloom]

ummm...

👀

noooo?

yea I'm fried

unless judgement gives me some mult

WATCH

wait who do I kill

[earnest flame]

Xmult is optional because playing sweaty pairslop for streaking is not my cup of tea more like it

[mental bloom]

order probably

I guess that works

[knotty zodiac]

LOL hosh was right

[mental bloom]

another one

or I scale RTB

I totally can

[knotty zodiac]

I don't think you need bus when you have RC

[mental bloom]

alr

[pale wolf]

i mean

if they're never going to scale red card then yes bus is much better

[knotty zodiac]

what's rc at?

[pale wolf]

3 max

[shell dagger]

ante 4 bus is a bit sus

[knotty zodiac]

ya if red card is <9 gotta switch IG

[mental bloom]

I started scaling it

[knotty zodiac]

painted square build... 2 pairs?

[pale wolf]

even if you only skip both packs every other round +4.5 is better than rtb would be

so as long as you're going to actually skip things then red is better

[mental bloom]

that's what I'm trying to do

[knotty zodiac]

gotta stay on top of that mult bc youre missing a xmult slot

[mental bloom]

I skip standard packs cuz I got telescope and astronomer guarantees me uranuses

red card is 15

[pale wolf]

You should skip the planet packs anyways

[knotty zodiac]

hm idk if uranus is better than skip

20/1 vs +3

you have chip scaling from square

[mental bloom]

true true

or at least bring my two pair level like at 10 and then I start skipping

[earnest flame]

About what, me being bad?

[mental bloom]

cuz astronomer and red card is solid

[knotty zodiac]

ya good combo

[mental bloom]

the arm fried my levels but I got blue seals

[mental bloom]

ante 6 lol

[digital pewter]

i was a little off

[knotty zodiac]

justbearit always right

[mental bloom]

that'll pain my square joker

[digital pewter]

but i'm not gonna let that get in my Head

[mental bloom]

I don't rmemeber if I faced the head already

[knotty zodiac]

square should be ~200 now, should be fine

[mental bloom]

what's the name of the mod that gives you a recap of all the previous antes

[digital pewter]

156

[mental bloom]

um

it's at 124

[digital pewter]

grahh

[mental bloom]

despite all my efforts

[digital pewter]

ok well check again when you beat the run....
