IM EXCITED

[hushed grotto]

FLOWERPOT BUFF

[quasi thistle]

yooooo flowerpot works through debuffs, I was really hoping for that change

[elfin glade]

YOO

[hushed grotto]

• Changed Hiker - Now gives +5 mult to every scoring card played instead of +4 chips
  WHAT

[elfin glade]

Awesome changes

[fervent beacon]

stuntman got off scott free it seems

[hushed grotto]

Holy moly

[spiral comet]

YOOO

[spring juniper]

yooooooyy

[tawny delta]

CRAZY TAG BUffS WHAT???????

[livid lantern]

I think stuntman being a little worse is fine

[fervent beacon]

wait nvm

[tulip leaf]

"- Changed Burnt Joker - Now is uncommon, was rare"
wasn't it uncommon before?

[shrewd owl]

that hiker change is clinical.

[fervent beacon]

I didnt scroll down

[quasi thistle]

burnt joker is already uncommon yeah

[frail belfry]

Oops meant other way around

[floral cedar]

Localthunk I missed you

[frail belfry]

thanks

[tulip leaf]

makes sense

[livid lantern]

Burnt joker is really good so that is understandable

[coarse fable]

Campfire nerf makes me sad, but makes sense. Campfire with good econ was broken

[hushed grotto]

SATURN BUFF

SATURN BUFF

[livid lantern]

oh yeah no it can still be good imo

[hushed grotto]

+30 / +3 YEAH

[shrewd owl]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

i love my buffed saturn

[wide grove]

LFG

[floral cedar]

screw sleeping

[coarse fable]

Bloodstone buff though hell yeah

[granite helm]

Blue seal buff 🦭

Yorick change

[dense radish]

So I just got the free uncommon and rare tags, but they weren't actually free

[tawny delta]

HIKER?????????????

[silver trail]

Saturn was already 30/3 yeah?

[hushed grotto]

The nerfs are interesting

[fervent beacon]

lmao zyru hi

[tawny delta]

HIKER IS +5 MULT?????????

[floral cedar]

HIKER OMG

[hushed grotto]

Wasn't expecting most of them lol

Except stuntman ofc

yeah hiker is gonna be INSANE wtf

[silver trail]

Hey benro:

[floral cedar]

The buff from 1 chip to 5 multi is insane, and much needed

[coarse fable]

Yeah the hiker buff is insane, without a change in rarity either

[livid lantern]

Hiker’s gonna be a really tarnation good pickup then

[floral cedar]

vampire was hit hard

[raven vapor]

lmao hiker
who need suits/smiley face

[frail belfry]

supposed to be +5 chips whoops

[livid lantern]

Like no matter what

[tawny delta]

BLOOD STONE BUFF?

[raven vapor]

LMAO

[hushed grotto]

oh LMAO

[fervent beacon]

lmao thunk

[floral cedar]

XD that makes sense

[livid lantern]

womp womp

[tawny delta]

ok PHEW

[wide grove]

RIP CAMPFIRE

[tawny delta]

good idea for a modded joker

[livid lantern]

We could’ve had another stuntman on our hands

[fervent beacon]

campfire went the way of obelisk

[quasi thistle]

oh nice, swashbuckler buff too

[hushed grotto]

still love to see the small hiker buff though :)

[wide grove]

😭 😭 😭

[floral cedar]

RARE JOKER FREE FROM RARE TAG!

[granite helm]

Campfire will still be strong 💪

[raven vapor]

free seances pog

[strong helm]

man he removed the post

[frail belfry]

I'll add it back, sorry!

one sec

[livid lantern]

Campfire is still strong yeah but moreso on zodiac

[fervent beacon]

it's like oeblisk now

it's reasonable

[coarse fable]

So I see not all of the balance changes were stake related. Thunk saw us all breaking the game with certain combos and was like, Let's make that a little harder to do lol

[spiral comet]

hmm since when did odd todd give 30 mult

[fervent beacon]

lol

[granite helm]

Yorick rework looks pog

[livid lantern]

Oh gosh dang it odd todd

[granite helm]

He won’t be sad anymore

[livid lantern]

Yeah honestly

At first I thought “wow this sucks” then I saw it say cards

[raven vapor]

huh, suit nerf is interesting, i guess fair?

[livid lantern]

And went “nvm thats pretty rad”

[fervent beacon]

that's not bad

[strong helm]

the hiker buff is crazy strong

[hushed grotto]

I love the yorick rework

[fervent beacon]

it's supposed to be chips not mult

hiker

[spiral comet]

me too

[fervent beacon]

thunk did an oopsie

[floral cedar]

I was almost mad at the Yorrick rework, until I saw it was per 23 cards

[wide grove]

- Changed Stuntman - Now gives +250 Chips, was +300

yep

[outer cypress]

...hiker is +5 chips instead..right

[fervent beacon]

yes

[hushed grotto]

I will never experience old yorick lmao

Still haven't unlocked it

and i'm glad for that tbh

[twilit frigate]

lmao would you like to add better empress to every card you play

[granite helm]

Hanging Chad buff let’s fucking goooo

[fervent beacon]

wait can you farm yorick from hook

hmmm

[floral cedar]

SUAS still exists pog

[strong helm]

I still think that canio and trib are way better then yorick

[granite helm]

Most likely, it counts for other discard jokers

[raven vapor]

yorick is actually pretty competitive now

[floral cedar]

I dont think thunk even knows of SUAS

[fervent beacon]

however

[raven vapor]

triboulet worst legendary letsgo

[fervent beacon]

it is definitely better than chicot

if it wasnt already

[strong helm]

?

[wide grove]

*- Changed Fibonacci - costs $8 instead of $7, because Fibonacci

lol

[teal dirge]

There is one chage that has me

[livid lantern]

So new worst legendary is chicot, but that can still see use

[hardy rock]

man vampire got NERFED holy hell

[tulip leaf]

purple 8 ball my beloved

[hardy rock]

i honestly didnt think vampire was even that op

[raven vapor]

oh it was lol

[fervent beacon]

i think all it needed was not working on unscored cards

[livid lantern]

Im thankful I got vamp gold sticker before

[raven vapor]

it was getting picked in gold stake on ante 1

[floral cedar]

New 8 ball, nice

[shrewd owl]

💯

[raven vapor]

now it's not as broken

[teal dirge]

Eternals in Buffoon packs is

[spiral comet]

time to run gold stake back

[frail belfry]

That was a bug - it was always supposed to be in buffoon packs

[fervent beacon]

some of these changes seem kinda random

[granite helm]

It absolutely was

[livid lantern]

Also question for perishable jokers

If you were to run a run with a perished joker disabled on gold

Would that sticker it?

[floral cedar]

🔥 I love gambling

[twilit frigate]

hopefully 🤔

[fervent beacon]

YOO MAGICIAN WORKS ON 2 CARDS

THATS SO GOOD

[tawny delta]

OH WAIT I MISREAD YORICK

[floral cedar]

👀

[livid lantern]

Yeah magician needed a buff

[prisma pumice]

Wait that is a weird buff to Gold stake... in some cases on some seeds you can get a joker for $1 which you couldn't afford otherwise

[tawny delta]

YORICK IS REALLY GOOD

[spring juniper]

Awesome patch, some needed buffs, some needed nerfs, amazing to see all the changes made

[fervent beacon]

it makes scaling jokers less broken

[hardy rock]

Flower pot working with debuffed cards NICE

[strong helm]

canio and trib still better though but its a good change

[hardy rock]

that thing might actually see play

[wide grove]

• • Changed Vampire
    • now only removes enhancement from scoring cards
    • gives X0.1 mult per enhancement instead of X0.2 mult
    • Rare instead of Uncommon

ayah.

[spring juniper]

But I must ask: the Red Card joker, do you think it needs a buff of some kind?

[spiral comet]

continuing an "already" started run
i have old gold stakes effect lmao

[granite helm]

I feel Yorick will be like Canio but with less variance

[fervent beacon]

you might have to choose constantly bleeding money to keep a scaling joker

it adds up

[hardy rock]

HANGING CHAD BUFFS???? wow, its a christmas miracle

[twilit frigate]

triple nerfed holy
but....deserved?

[tulip leaf]

do rental jokers put you in debt?

[fervent beacon]

i dont think it needs to be rare on top of that

[wide grove]

• • Changed Orange Stake
    • Scrapped increasing pack cost
    • Added new 'Perishable' mechanic, Jokers have a 30% chance to have a 'Perishable' sticker, disabling them after 5 rounds

this... is interesting

[hardy rock]

flush jonkers nerfed Nooooo

[heady bane]

Oh no, Swashbuckler was changed.

Now Buckleswasher doesn't work

[raven vapor]

ok actually i don't know if i prefer old orange/gold or new orange/gold
this new gold stake might be harder

[spring juniper]

Bloodstone is now going to go hard with oops all 6s

[fervent beacon]

orange stake being different is a massive indirect buff

[spring juniper]

And Murphy will now use Swashbuckler

[wide grove]

oh wow bloodstone makes hearts OP now

[spring juniper]

campfire nerf, vampire nerf. campfire vampire. they rhyme. Connection?

[granite helm]

Oh yeah @acoustic crypt check out the patch notes :)

[hushed grotto]

yeah the suit commons and onyx agate being nerfed is a bit weird

[fervent beacon]

stuntman doesnt rhyme with campfire last time I checked

[hushed grotto]

I suppose they're really small changes and they'll still be good tbf

[livid lantern]

Stuntman does rhyme with campfire

[spring juniper]

Vagabond is restored to his former glory and is given the proper ranking

[acoustic crypt]

Getting ready to go live to look at it lol

[outer cypress]

was campfire THAT insane to deserve that level of nerf thats wild

[wide grove]

• • Negative, Polychrome, Holo, Foil tags all make their respective joker free

wait what dus this

[fervent beacon]

it kind of was

[raven vapor]

i think so yea

[hardy rock]

campfire got WHACKED holy heck.

[livid lantern]

100% yeah

[raven vapor]

campfire was basically autowin

[spring juniper]

Gros Michel is now going to stick around a LOT more than usual

[twilit frigate]

tags are the skip tags you get

[raven vapor]

like with any eco

[hardy rock]

still probably useable but its a shell of its former self

[livid lantern]

Campfire is still good, but holy jesus

[fervent beacon]

at least it only got nerfed by 50%, obelisk wasn't so lucky

[spring juniper]

All the buffs to the tags are INSANE

[granite helm]

Absolutely

[quasi thistle]

dang, was hoping the Reduced Motion would still use a colored background for each boss

[fervent beacon]

it got nerfed by 60%

I think

[spring juniper]

free jokers everywhere

[outer cypress]

i guess i just never saw it often enough lmao

[fervent beacon]

not in this update but in the demo

[frail belfry]

It should!

if not that's a bug

[spring juniper]

Anaglyph deck with all negative tags will be massive

[hardy rock]

Blood stone doesn't need 2 oops all 7s to be gauranteed. Wow, that's really really nice.

[frail belfry]

Ah okay I'll push another update in a sec

[quasi thistle]

i guess that's still yellowish,just hard to see

[spring juniper]

Hiker....is now probably the best joker for high stakes ever.

[livid lantern]

Anaglyph deck would become best way to farm gold stickers yeah

[fervent beacon]

the +5 mult was a mistake

it's just chips

[raven vapor]

ok why is the bg pitch black lol

[livid lantern]

Hiker was a typo

[fervent beacon]

😔

[silent temple]

I’m very sad at my favorite joker stuntman being nerfed

||I have never used stuntman but it’s my favorite somehow||

[quasi thistle]

I and many others use the bright yellow background to remember to play 5 cards :P

[spring juniper]

oh. chips.

[raven vapor]

stuntman is still autopick at 250

[hardy rock]

thank god for stuntman getting nerfed. its still strong tho.

[raven vapor]

thunk can nerf it to 200 and it's still autopick

[livid lantern]

Stuntman was stupid enough to carry runs, it still can but not as many

[fervent beacon]

I'm guessing you can still sell disabled jokers

[frail belfry]

yes

[fervent beacon]

perishable is honestly worse than rental

[wide grove]

here we go fam

[spring juniper]

unless it's eternal perishable

[fervent beacon]

i feel like they should be switched

[quasi thistle]

yeah though I assume you can get a Perishable Eternal

[hardy rock]

i would imagine yes

[hushed grotto]

I think rental is the last one because it can stack

[spring juniper]

to do list is now as valid as I always knew it was

[hardy rock]

from the screenshots

[twilit dune]

wow swashbuckler gaming now

[hushed grotto]

also because Gold color

[spiral comet]

what a meme joker

[hushed grotto]

= money

or something

[spiral comet]

[frail belfry]

it's perishable AND rental though - I don't think the order matters that much, i prefer the harder layer first

[fervent beacon]

true

[spring juniper]

Lucky Cat gets even better with the new magician buff, one of my favorite jokers

[hushed grotto]

LMAO

[wide grove]

OMFG i need to get this so i can change my avatar

[hardy rock]

imagine getting an eternal perishible rental.

[spring juniper]

Sixth Sense and Seance no longer eat up the rare joker tag, but Vagabond and Burnt Joker do, which is how it should be

[hushed grotto]

And Vampire

[frail belfry]

Did nobody comment on the guaranteed Buffoon pack in the first shop of every run?

[fervent beacon]

and now space joker isn't completely outclassed

[floral cedar]

Im just glad SUAS wasnt fixed

[livid lantern]

Oh that

[frail belfry]

That's one of the bigger changes

[spring juniper]

That's the best thing for high stakes

[hushed grotto]

OH YEAH I SAW THAT BUT FORGOT TO COMMENT

THAT'S HUGE

[livid lantern]

Yeah thats tarnation sweet

[hardy rock]

Thats a great consistency change, yes very nice.

[spiral comet]

ikr

[granite helm]

Still net positive with temperance :copium:

[raven vapor]

oh holy crap

[spring juniper]

instead of hoping for jokers, now you are ENSURED jokers

[raven vapor]

alright time to grind for a 30 streak

[hardy rock]

along with most of the expsneive jokers coming down in price to 8, very good

[livid lantern]

I thought that said 30 steak

[wide grove]

ah jeez

[silver trail]

I would have, so nice for starting consistency

[quasi thistle]

also getting a black background onthe title screen btw

[spring juniper]

So now the pareidolia midas mask vampire build will require splash to be half as busted as it was

[granite helm]

Buffoon pack first shop feels nice 👍

[frail belfry]

Yeah with the reduced motion setting right?

[quasi thistle]

yeah

i assumed it was going to be red

[frail belfry]

What would you expect?

[elfin glade]

Thank you, Zodiac Deck is less painful to play now

[wide grove]

ok avatar updated

[dim parcel]

Perkeo made it out unscathed???? Im so happy

I'll miss the hilariously busted vagabond tho LOL

[fervent beacon]

i can still do naneinf

[dim parcel]

it looks like infinite money glitch is gone tho

[spring juniper]

Yorick buff is huge, now he goes hard

[hushed grotto]

I really like vampire only working on scoring cards

[dim parcel]

unless I misunderstand how it works, since the fallback is strength

[hushed grotto]

Makes it less good on high card (unless splash)

[spring juniper]

Invis joker buff is insane too

[tulip leaf]

I mean, vaga is still good

[raven vapor]

vaga technically got buffed just rarer

[tulip leaf]

just rarer

[prisma pumice]

Wow I actually predicted stuntman nerf correctly in #🎙・server-chat

[dim parcel]

true true

[floral cedar]

LOL

[hushed grotto]

yeah campfire naneinf is dead 😔

lmao

[fervent beacon]

biggest buff by far for sure

[dim parcel]

I think maybe vamp is a bit overnerfed? 0.1x and scoring only hurts a bit

[spring juniper]

I was at one point theorizing that the blue seal buff would be that you'd upgrade the hand you just played if at least 1 card in it had a blue seal

[tulip leaf]

yea, I don't think the rare tag works as intended

[wide grove]

THE LEAKS WERE REAL

[quasi thistle]

yeah it seems quite bad now without some kind of huge tarot engine

[hushed grotto]

yeah i wonder if vampire only needs some of the three nerfs

[fervent beacon]

8 hand size on gold is so weird

[hushed grotto]

i REALLY like the only scoring cards one though

[fervent beacon]

what is this game

[livid lantern]

Balatro

[frail belfry]

Only way to tell is to test! I think it's more in line now

[dim parcel]

it was deffo too strong

[hardy rock]

overall this patch is defintely looking gooooooood.

[granite helm]

Bram Poker is no longer free lol

[snow wagon]

This is so sick, so many higher stake runs get bricked cuz no jokers in the shop

[wide grove]

ooh

[livid lantern]

Also I might get rid of nebula hater now that celestial packs are decent again on higher stakes

[dim parcel]

I think 0.2x but scoring is a bit better tho, makes it strong but less brainless

the blue seal change is brilliant

one of the best balance changes Ive seen in any game its so smart

[fervent beacon]

first shop LMAO

[hardy rock]

i'm going to go from white->gold on a deck i've not done much of now, and get a full brepth of how the game feels post changes.

[coarse fable]

Yeah this is an excellent balance change imo

[livid lantern]

WAIT I CALLED FOR SOMETHING LIKE THAT

[dim parcel]

dont you wanna take a mortgage out on smeared come on

[coarse fable]

I think the tags making their relative jokers free might be a bit much, but we'll see how it plays. Might just make skipping more part of the meta

[dim parcel]

50 year smeared joker mortgage

[quasi thistle]

the rental mechanic is actually really cool for getting off the ground early game

[hushed grotto]

yeah indirect throwback buff is nice

[frail belfry]

This was the intention

[coarse fable]

Ooh very nice!

[dim parcel]

I think its not too much

[fervent beacon]

perishable mr bones my favorite

[quasi thistle]

free jokers sounds like it's going to be really strong

[dim parcel]

skipping has a huge gost already

[outer cypress]

uhh, this uncommon tag gave me an uncommon, but not for free

[dim parcel]

*cost

[snow wagon]

Skipping felt like a no go on higher stake runs cuz of how aggressive scaling was

[quasi thistle]

i guess i should do some runs with it to see

[frail belfry]

the whole rare/uncommon free thing seems not to be working, I'll patch that too

[snow wagon]

Also massive anaglyph buffs

[floral cedar]

bro this is taking forever to post

I thought jokers from rare tag were free?

[coarse fable]

Yeah anaglyph is going to be really fun now

[hushed grotto]

Lmao negative farming is gonna be way easier now

[raven vapor]

still feels like a no go, but we'll see
because i haven't seen anything that makes green square unviable

[dim parcel]

fun yorick change btw!

[hushed grotto]

I might actually consider going for ++

[hushed grotto]

green/square getting hit by either of the new tags is pretty bad tbh

[snow wagon]

I think free holo or free foil is basically a free trip to ante 3

[elfin glade]

Just used a rare tag, free part might be bugged

sad

[hushed grotto]

But if they don't it can definitely still work yeah

[dense radish]

happened to me as well, I reported it

[fervent beacon]

am I so bad that I am still inconsistent at 1 shotting round 1 on red deck lol

[dense radish]

same with uncommons

[quasi thistle]

foil tag is successfully making the jokers free, including when doubled

[dim parcel]

6th sense uncommon is interesting - makes naneinf easier lol

[twilit dune]

the magician buff is also huge

[dense radish]

that one also works

[dim parcel]

OH MY GOD REALLY

[snow wagon]

The rare tag buff is great cuz you can actually afford the joker on ante 1 now lmao

[dim parcel]

MAGICIAN WAS ALREADY MY FAVORITE

lucky build here we come

[fervent beacon]

I hate this already

what the fuck is it with mr bones bruh

[frail belfry]

Sr. Huesos

[dim parcel]

just skip 4 whole antes whats the issue

[quasi thistle]

perishable rocket is so funny

[hushed grotto]

i love the saturn and flower pot buffs so much

saturn is already my most bought planet lmao

but i've never gotten it to work on gold

[snow wagon]

Hologram, red card, hallucination, now are so much better on orange stake+

[quasi thistle]

i wonder how debuffed Perishable jokers interact with Crimson Heart?

[frosty pilot]

blue seal my (now) beloved

[fervent beacon]

also im getting lag spikes whenever I get my starting hand

[silent temple]

Sr. Huevos

[snow wagon]

I just realized, the vampire nerf hurts less cuz you can buy way more arcana packs now

[livid lantern]

Thats on higher stakes

[floral cedar]

Me and brownie call him sans undertale do to the bug

[livid lantern]

On lower stakes it hurts a lot more

[raven vapor]

are you really buying twice as much and making them score

[snow wagon]

True

[dim parcel]

true, but also midas is worse and vaga is rarer

[fervent beacon]

ok still losing on ante 1 lol

[raven vapor]

because the answer is probably no unless stone cards

midas vamp splash new combo lmaoo

[burnt lichen]

man this sounds kinda inappropriate without context lmao

[granite helm]

Vampire is still unconditional xmult after you get it online, and there are plenty of tarots that give 2 enhancements

[livid lantern]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN INAPPROPRIATE

[dim parcel]

lets see how my first sticker farmi goes

[foggy mantle]

i think the changes make vamp more in line with constellation so i think its okay

[hushed grotto]

yeah vamp is no longer a HC support card

unless Splash

[fervent beacon]

uhhhhhhhh

[raven vapor]

still unconditional

[granite helm]

Splash indirect buff is 💪

[stoic wyvern]

lol

[hushed grotto]

yeah i LOVE the indirect splash buffs

[burnt lichen]

"huevos" in spanish is also slang for testicles

[hushed grotto]

Vamp, Midas, Flowerpot

[coarse fable]

money's on sale... ?

[livid lantern]

Oh

[fervent beacon]

finally some good shit

[wide grove]

LOL question

[hushed grotto]

LMAO

[spring juniper]

Well, I used the foil tag and this one IS free...

[stoic wyvern]

- Changed Bloodstone - Now has a 1 in 2 chance to proc, was 1 in 3

Thunk are you insane

[livid lantern]

Its all rentals

[wide grove]

did the rand() change for legendary in packs 😂

[livid lantern]

Jesus

[mild crane]

jeez big changes

[wide grove]

pulled Soul on my very first arcana

[burnt lichen]

oh, nerf ):

[hushed grotto]

the two slightly nerfed but still great cards side by side

[mild crane]

IK WTF IS BLOODSTONE

[spring juniper]

So the foil tag makes the joker free, but others are not?

[fervent beacon]

this is way harder than I thought

[wide grove]

PERKKKKKEEEEEOOOOOO

and i already have a magician up there lolz

[snow wagon]

Stuntman no longer a free win on plasma

[mild crane]

ok i need to get the update

[burnt lichen]

HOLY SHIT BLOODSTONE IS SO BACK

[wide grove]

first run (blue stake red deck) looking spicy

[spring juniper]

Just beat the boss and am in the shop and can see the UPCOMING boss blind and tags this is so good....

[stoic wyvern]

WE DOING A BLOODSTONE OOPS ALL 6's RUN TONIGHT BOIS

[dim parcel]

bloodstone oops is ON THE MENU??

[burnt lichen]

-25 chips and -25 mult is a rough but deserved nerf

[dim parcel]

also lucky cat oops new magician is insane

[frail belfry]

Has anyone been able to test on their steam deck?

[snow wagon]

That requires me to run lucky cat and oops

[dim parcel]

I still lost on ante 1 some things never change

[mild crane]

lmao

[frail belfry]

It was having some stuttering performance issues - I think it's fixed now

[mild crane]

looking forwards to free rare and uncommon jokers

[dim parcel]

lets goo riff in the buffoon time to win

[mild crane]

ok let's do this

[ivory sandal]

Hello I have a question, is it safe to just enable the experimental build and create a new player profile to just click unlock all? Being cautious here I'm not really savvy at this

[stoic wyvern]

Can you donate me a free steam deck, ill test it

:)

[livid lantern]

I wonder, why were the sinful jokers nerfed?

[dim parcel]

uncommon skip doesnt work yet right?

[livid lantern]

I dont remember anyone complaining about them

[fervent beacon]

this is hard dude

[frail belfry]

not yet I am pushing the update as we speak

[dim parcel]

I also dont understand this tbh, I thought they were actually a bit weak if anything

[snow wagon]

Sins should be punished

[livid lantern]

Yeah tbh, good early game but late I’d rather have smth else

[granite helm]

To discourage flushes more

[fervent beacon]

DOUBLE STENCIL LETS DO IT

[livid lantern]

oooooh okay

[mild crane]

let's see if i can get that magic deck gold win now

[fervent beacon]

(I am going to die)

[floral cedar]

my castle hasnt changed in like 2-3 antes

[burnt lichen]

oh, >50% vampire nerf ):

[frail belfry]

New update has been pushed, still 1.0.1c

[mild crane]

NOOO ALL MY JOKERS ARE PERISHABLE

[frail belfry]

fixed background colour with motion turned off and free uncommon/rare tags

[snow wagon]

I think we should nerf black deck, not because it’s good, but because I don’t like it

[mild crane]

reupdate?

[stoic wyvern]

^

[stoic wyvern]

Based

[burnt lichen]

oh my god swashbuckler buff, amazing

[fervent beacon]

this makes me think a lot more

i like it

[frail belfry]

IMO it's so much better at gold stake

[fervent beacon]

my plans have almost entirely changed it's crazy

[frail belfry]

it's much more complicated but way less unfair

[snow wagon]

Best part of swash buff is it not being annoying to position it with X mult jokers

[mild crane]

why are all my jokers perishable.....

wtf thunk

[floral cedar]

Waittttt I wonder if SUAS combines with rental

brb

[granite helm]

Huge agree

[mild crane]

why would you do this to me specifically

[dim parcel]

I love you new 8 ball but I cant go into debt for you

[raven vapor]

are the tag fixed yet?

[livid lantern]

Refrigerate those jokers

[dim parcel]

ugh least money will have to be rerouted now LOL

[granite helm]

The decisions in gold stake are way more interesting now

[dim parcel]

due to the rent mechanics

[fervent beacon]

rental is like a big problem

[mild crane]

money is no longer on sale

[dim parcel]

already feels very neat

[coarse fable]

That's been the most frustrating thing about gold stake honestly, just feeling like you did everything you could but getting let down by a bad draw or shop in the early game

[stoic wyvern]

it works

[burnt lichen]

omfg, hanging chad is now more than usable
and damn, vagabond (overall) nerf ):

[fervent beacon]

perishable feels real bad though

[mild crane]

lmfao

[snow wagon]

Dagger stay losing

[fervent beacon]

oh noooo whatever will you do

[livid lantern]

I mean tbh perishable feels like you gotta adapt on the fly

[granite helm]

I love perishable

[frail belfry]

perishable also means the game is going to be less about high card strat on gold stake

[raven vapor]

more like pray for critical jokers not getting perishable lmaoo

[hushed grotto]

wait if i update mid-run is my straight suddenly going to gain 4 mult LMAO

[fervent beacon]

perishable and rental both nerf scaling jokers

[snow wagon]

Especially without the hand size nerf

[frail belfry]

so investing in planets for better hands is more viable compared to high card runs

[fervent beacon]

so yeah ig

[elfin glade]

Oh we're cooking now

[livid lantern]

Oh wait hang on

[stoic wyvern]

I think free jokers may be OP, maybe the tag should do 50% off?

[burnt lichen]

nooooooooooooooo, reserved parking nerf ):

[raven vapor]

lets see how planets work out, feels pretty inconsistent

[livid lantern]

We can do funny 4/5oak runs now

[coarse fable]

no skips are the new meta

[dim parcel]

isnt reserved parking just common now?

[burnt lichen]

yes, a nerf because baseball card

[granite helm]

Pivoting multiple times in a run, the cost/benefit analysis of temporary joker / winning the next few rounds, very interesting stuff for perishable

[mild crane]

skips are way bette rnow

[dim parcel]

encourage skips keep this

[tulip leaf]

I like the new two pair commons

[fervent beacon]

skips are lame tho

[floral cedar]

Local you ruined my seed

dang it

[stoic wyvern]

lol

[coarse fable]

not anymore

[dim parcel]

skips are fun if you have to actually think about them

[tulip leaf]

no longer entirely useless

[dim parcel]

rn you just never skip

[snow wagon]

Tbf you still miss scaling, interest, hand money, blind money, and the shop

[lethal radish]

Not sure if this has been reported yet, but the new wording for the Magician (and for Empress and Hierophant) should be "Enhances up to 2 selected cards" and not "Enhances 2 selected cards", right?
Strength card seems to have kept the wording of "up to 2"

[dim parcel]

well in 1.0.0 you never skip

Even free uncommon might not be enough reason to skip

[frail belfry]

Thank you - great feedback!

[fervent beacon]

i guess see how it goes

[frail belfry]

I'll change

[teal dirge]

The only change I wish in the future is that if Food Jokers have an edition then they are also eligable for Eternal so it doesnt feel bad getting Foil on Popcorn

[frail belfry]

That's Balatro, baby

[mild crane]

perishable actually a buff for muchel

[floral cedar]

lol

[mild crane]

assured destruction

[teal dirge]

Eligable but not required yanno

[elfin glade]

Fridge joker that makes consumable jokers not expire

[hushed grotto]

"Debuffed"

[stoic wyvern]

Does that count for giga banana?

[spring juniper]

Foil tag and holo tag work as intended it seems. This Chaos the Clown became free

[mild crane]

oh shoot

i'm dumb lol

[dim parcel]

I think debuffed doesnt count as it dying right?

[snow wagon]

4oK joker becoming 2pair is nice for less early game dud jokers

[mild crane]

ignore me

[teal dirge]

Like if you roll into a Holo Ice Cream ir can also roll Eternal

[mild crane]

i'm buffon

[hushed grotto]

ok screw it i'm updating mid run

gonna finish up my last gold stake on this new update

[floral cedar]

wait how does perishable + mr Bones work...

[magic ether]

specifically, it doesn't go "extinct"

[teal dirge]

All these changes are amazing though

[fervent beacon]

uh after 5 rounds it doesnt do anything

[frail belfry]

debuffed doesn't destroy the joker

[mild crane]

loving this

[floral cedar]

ohhh

[mild crane]

so mush

[floral cedar]

I payed attention in class

[dim parcel]

stonks

[devout jackal]

just wanna know when will the localizations be updated

[burnt lichen]

oh, nice, golden ticket buff

[snow wagon]

Debuffed joker is just what crimson heart does

[dim parcel]

WHOA

I didnt see that

[mild crane]

IKR

[shy lance]

I'm loving the new changes on paper. I need to get in and test them but this should make higher stakes a lot more fun and a lot of the buffed jokers a lot more playable.

[mild crane]

I GOT A FREE NEGATIVE CONSTELLATION

[dim parcel]

Im in game these are so fun

[frail belfry]

It'll be a little while yet - this is just an experimental update. I am still tweaking the english after all

[fervent beacon]

man I have to actually think

[mild crane]

ikr

[fervent beacon]

why thunk

i had a good thing going

[shy lance]

I do hope that one day we get a custom stakes mode where we can just choose what mechanics we can play with of the stakes. I'd love to play with just some of the mechanics in a bubble at times such as eternal at white stakes or the new ones by themselves.

[fervent beacon]

joking of course

[mild crane]

i'm going all in on 8s

[dim parcel]

wheres my lobotomy highcard thunk >:(

Im playing a straight run rn this sucks

[fervent beacon]

it's still there

[dim parcel]

Im using my brain so much

[mild crane]

ikr

[fervent beacon]

i forgot what it feels like

[frail belfry]

ugh thinking

[burnt lichen]

wait
so both perishable and rental have a chance to be on a joker, right?

[hallow talon]

Time table for console updates?

[mild crane]

yess goodbye michel

[frail belfry]

you got it!

[livid lantern]

I think with hc no longer being meta maybe pairs would follow since bigger hand size?

[mild crane]

i like that rentals are $1

it's cool

[hushed grotto]

thunking

[livid lantern]

I assume it cant be true for perishable and eternal?

[devout jackal]

will perishable stack with eternal?

[livid lantern]

Since they clash

[burnt lichen]

thank god

[frail belfry]

perishable does not stack with eternal, all other permutations stack

(perishable + rental, eternal + rental)

[livid lantern]

Okay good to know

[stoic wyvern]

ohthankgofd

[mild crane]

thunk W

[devout jackal]

thanks god

[snow wagon]

Thank god verdant leaf isn’t on type cast and jokerless

[dim parcel]

the ultimate eternal egg

[hushed grotto]

yeah jokerless vessel and bell only now

[mild crane]

lmfao

[burnt lichen]

yeah but crimsom and acorn also aren't ):

[devout jackal]

lose one joker slot after 5 rounds

[dim parcel]

I found blackboard

[elfin glade]

ty Thunk ❤️

[snow wagon]

I mean, Beats 1/5 to auto lose the run

[dim parcel]

thunk will you forgive me if I highcard

[frail belfry]

Any feedback on performance on Windows/steam deck?

compared to 1.0.0

[mild crane]

windows feeling nice

[frail belfry]

Should be more buttery

[dim parcel]

no issues on windows

[burnt lichen]

thunk you thank for buffing rarity and edition giving tags

[stoic wyvern]

windows is a good

[fervent beacon]

im getting some lag spikes on the opening hand for some reason. Maybe it's on my end

[frail belfry]

On PC?

[fervent beacon]

yeah

[coarse fable]

Straight runs feel a lot more viable now with the buffs to saturn and neptune alone

[burnt lichen]

trueeeee, that +1 mult is a lot bigger than it looks

[hardy rock]

blood stone might actually be too strong now lol

[fervent beacon]

saturn unnerfed

sick

[snow wagon]

Not getting seance and 6th sense off wraith

[hushed grotto]

orange stake change will be huge for straights too

[fervent beacon]

burnt joker vagabond and vampire out of wraith is crazy

[burnt lichen]

thunk u thank for those changes too

[fervent beacon]

RED CARD IS USABLE ON GOLD

[floral cedar]

explain that to me

[fervent beacon]

WE DID IT GAMERS

[hushed grotto]

RED CARD

RED CARD

[coarse fable]

gold stake I can finally play for full houses in the early game again

[burnt lichen]

wait
vagabond from wraith...

[fervent beacon]

that's kinda nuts hold on

[coarse fable]

Daniel is rare now

[fervent beacon]

baseball nerfs smh

[dim parcel]

I already had a bunch of red card wins on gold stake somehow LOL

so Im chilling

[hushed grotto]

this screenshot will look way less cursed now

[fast plover]

Holy god the new experimental dropped
While my pc is broken...
Hopefully I can get it working to test this out soon

[fervent beacon]

all the good uncommons are being moved

[burnt lichen]

and now we have decent uncommons ):

[snow wagon]

Honestly this might reign in uncommon tag by itself

Uncommon tag

It’s seance

[fervent beacon]

ignore that there's still blackboard, nerfed stuntman, card sharp, bloodstone is pretty good now

[hardy rock]

blood stone goes nuclear

[fervent beacon]

speaking of

[hushed grotto]

Yeah onyx and stutnman are still good

[burnt lichen]

oh right, me crazy stupid

[fervent beacon]

madness "nerf" is interesting

[frail belfry]

It's a buff!

[knotty python]

Just read the patchnotes. Great stuff all around and especially with the updated orange/gold stakes 👍

[hardy rock]

i love it, honestly.

[quasi thistle]

I have a pretty low end laptop that can slow down while streaming, I'll look into testing the performance while streaming it when I get the chance

[fervent beacon]

it means less scaling but also more agency

[snow wagon]

Should it apply the ceremonial dagger or not since dagger can pick the target

[wide grove]

Just noticed this one!

• • Upcoming blinds/tags can now be seen in the shop immediately after defeating a boss blind/cashing out

[tiny grail]

the best part of the patchnotes were the orange and gold stake effects being changed
the funniest part was odd todd getting +1 chip

[wide grove]

huzzah

[burnt lichen]

yeah, looks like a step in the right direction, maybe more than a step

[hushed grotto]

YEAH

[burnt lichen]

hell yeah!

[granite helm]

Amazing change, that

[snow wagon]

This won’t help cuz I can’t read boss blinds till I play them

[wide grove]

didn't notice it til i used it on my run lol

[elfin glade]

Really nice change

[dim parcel]

buffoon ante 1 feels great

[coarse fable]

The high stakes adjustments, and the scaling adjustments on green + purple stakes, are all really good changes imo. At least on paper

[snow wagon]

Do these changes automatically apply to challenge runs

[mild crane]

chat help what do i get rid of

[fervent beacon]

imma need drspectred to tell me how to play this new patch lol

[mild crane]

thinking baron

[snow wagon]

Cuz blast off if you brick an early game joker hurts my soul

[fervent beacon]

idk what to do

[coarse fable]

are you wanting to beat ante 8 or go into endless?

[mild crane]

(my deck is centered on 8s of clubs)

ante 8

[hardy rock]

By the way, if anyones worried about testing the new build, unlocks DO apply to the normal version. I just tested it

[mild crane]

yeah getting rid of baron prob

[coarse fable]

Yeah ditch baron and brainstorm all day

[hardy rock]

so feel free to play on the new version if you're trying to unlock decks/stakes etc.

[hushed grotto]

damn it didn't

about to get a cursed screenshot of a straight being buffed by 4 old saturns and some new ones

[dim parcel]

I feel kinda dirty playing ride the bus on this version LOL

to be fair Im playing 2 pairs

[mild crane]

did it change?

[dim parcel]

no but its funny just playing the same meta as before again

[snow wagon]

Nah it’s just still goated

[hushed grotto]

if only you had old 8 ball LMAO

[coarse fable]

the general two pair buffs from jokers is great

[hushed grotto]

the one situation where it would be useful

deck full of 8's and constellation

[mild crane]

fr

lmao

[coarse fable]

two pair has won me many a high stake run

[hushed grotto]

Yeah my first two gold stakes were two pair

Trousers >>>

[dim parcel]

I love 2 pair <3

[snow wagon]

SPousers my beloved

[quasi thistle]

boss backgrounds are fixed!

[frail belfry]

Awesome!

[livid lantern]

Trousers carried my painted deck gold run

[hushed grotto]

Wait my saturn is still +2 wtf

Although tbf i didn't actually buy one

But in the collection it's +2

[frail belfry]

???

[floral cedar]

LOL, RIFT RAFT GAVE ME JUGGLER ON THE WATER FIGHT

[frail belfry]

Are you sure you're on 1.0.1c?

[floral cedar]

I mean drunkard

[hushed grotto]

Yeah I have the two pair commons

[quasi thistle]

buffed planets show up in collection for me

[half light]

How do i get the update?

[frail belfry]

Are you in the middle of a run from the previous version?

[hushed grotto]

OHH that explains it

Ok that makes sense lmao

[floral cedar]

this is cursed, and I love it

[twilit frigate]

o o f

[hushed grotto]

mb this is my first time updating balatro mid run i had no idea how it would work LMAO

[broken needle]

Did anyone check if bugged seeds got patched?

[livid lantern]

I think the bugged seeds should stay bugged, would be funny to just encounter it playing normally

[broken needle]

Or if seeds got changed around? (Besides different jokers and first round buffoon packs)

[fast plover]

What are bugged seeds?

[hushed grotto]

Ok time to speedrun through this run then so i can see the new stuff :)

[lethal radish]

oh? going down an ante (Hieroglyph) still gives you the Ante 8 boss now?

[wide grove]

i just made basically my whole deck lucky, thanks perkeo on new patch

[mild crane]

well i guess that's my second golden stake win

[broken needle]

All 10 of Spades
All cards in shop are spectrals
All jokers are holographic

[mild crane]

thanks for the update thunk

[floral cedar]

I tested SUAS seed and still got mrbones and spectral pack first shop, and then jumbo pack ruined other pack but other then that

[coarse fable]

So cool to see such thought and effort having gone into the stake adjustments also. The new joker effects will make for much more calculated high stake runs, and the design was clearly thought out from the principle of focusing on jokers at high stakes. Very cool work localthunk

[fast plover]

Ooo

[broken needle]

Seeds like this were possible with the algorithm

[half light]

Reading patch notes and i really like replacing pack cost scaling with perishable jokers

[mild crane]

new stake feels amazing

[snow wagon]

This was last patch too

[broken needle]

Cool, some jokers won’t change but many will when rarities shift around

[grand sedge]

Welp, I'm unable to play jokerless. (Joke: Crimson Heart Blind being banned from Jokerless)

[broken needle]

Have you tried any bugged seed?

[floral cedar]

true, I wanted to test rental + SUAS

havent tested bugged seeds

[hoary notch]

Flower Pot: did I get that right? When insert_suit_name are debuffed, the Pot will still count them if played?

[broken needle]

Given that other seeds worked mostly it probably wasn’t patched, which is a good thing

[floral cedar]

but Math, imagine like 10 rental jokers + SUAS

[broken needle]

that would be wild

let’s see what localthunk thinks about patching SUAS

[snow wagon]

What’s suas

[frail belfry]

If something isn't in the patchnotes it likely isn't patched - please keep the discussion to the new changes or any new bugs!

[broken needle]

will do

[mild crane]

thunk thanks for the update lol

[broken needle]

gj on the update, looks great so far :)

[half light]

I love the 8 ball change

[floral cedar]

Yeah sorry, I forget myself sometimes with so much new content + finally seeing you after so long

[frail belfry]

These balance changes and stability improvements for steam deck were more important at this point IMO, wanted to get these out there

[floral cedar]

makes sense

[mild crane]

gold stake feels amazing dude

actually hard to play

in a good way

[frail belfry]

lets goooo

[floral cedar]

It doesnt feel like a f u stake

[hardy rock]

FIRST FIGHT BANANA DISAPEARED

lol

[half light]

Like the blue seal change

[snow wagon]

Bootstraps is a nice QOL fix

[frail belfry]

What are the Seal power rankings now?

[dim parcel]

probably still red>purple>gold and blue

[granite helm]

🦭 is number one full stop

[coarse fable]

blue maybe outranks gold now

[dim parcel]

but maybe blue could be on par with gold?

[frail belfry]

I think blue might be above both purple and gold for me

[hoary notch]

localthunk, Unrelated to the thread, but I've been trying to reach you multiple times about the full Russian localization mod that I'd really like to be included in the official release, but haven't got any response both here and from Playstack. If you could accept my DM, I'll give you the details. Sorry for the offtop.

Currently translating the experimental patchnotes to Russian as I go.

[snow wagon]

I think red is iffy since it’s synergy specific

[coarse fable]

red and purple are goated still though

[half light]

Red>Purple>Blue>Gold probably

[dim parcel]

I play a lot of endless

[coarse fable]

red + steel is killer

[dim parcel]

but red is good for gold card in 8ante

[mild crane]

blue abover purple

[snow wagon]

Red on a normal card is just 7.5 extra chips on average

[half light]

Magician change is awesome

[fervent beacon]

here's a nice little graphic, price changes of $1 I deemed an insignificant change, while $2 or more is significant

[granite helm]

Purple is my #1 personally, but either red or blue after that

[dim parcel]

I think purple>blue still deck control is crazy

[granite helm]

I just like tarots

[dim parcel]

this is perfect

whats the madness change?

[fervent beacon]

doesnt proc on boss blinds I think?

[half light]

Yorick change is cool

[snow wagon]

Not activated on boss blinds

[dim parcel]

lucky cat should be in major buff tbh

[mild crane]

thunk, friend brought up a point that maybe you should make the negative tag half off instead of free

since it just makes it even better with no downside

[grand sedge]

I'm gonna be writing down everything in my big patch note archive. Can't wait to play the update.

[fervent beacon]

fibo was +2????

[raven vapor]

tbh madness is a hard nerf

[snow wagon]

Tbf the downside is you get a useless joker

[hushed grotto]

PLUS 2??

[mild crane]

poly and holo tags went from rarely take to an actual consideration, while negative is now just way better with no downside

[grand sedge]

Yup

[hushed grotto]

Damn

[fervent beacon]

it was +4 when I played

[mild crane]

that's not a downside

especially in gold stake

[granite helm]

Fib is now fully fibbed ✊

[half light]

Jesus Vampire was hugely nerfed

[snow wagon]

Not getting any upside for your skip is a downside in my eyes

[mild crane]

negatives are always an upside

[fervent beacon]

nobody is talking about invis changes

[mild crane]

now they're just free

[fervent beacon]

it's one of the biggest ones

[grand sedge]

It might've been like that during the 0.9 betas, but that's a topic for another channel

[mild crane]

invis is crazy change

[dim parcel]

skipping blinds has a huge opportunity cost stil

[coarse fable]

yeah free joker copy in two rounds is a buff for sure

[dim parcel]

I think its fine

[fervent beacon]

8 ball isn't even that good now but I put it in massive buff because it went from like bottom 5 to usable

[mild crane]

trueee

hmmm

but it's just making the negative tag win even more

[teal dirge]

Invis now feels much more viable in all Antes and not just early. It used to feel terrible not being able to take invis late because you had to tank your build to do so

[mild crane]

before it was basically an always take

now it's an always take that's even freer

[dim parcel]

not really at all LOL

[mild crane]

for me at least

[knotty python]

Do perishable and rental jokers appear at the same rate as eternal?

[dim parcel]

neg tag was very bad if youre not sticker hunting

[teal dirge]

Negative Tag was terrible

[half light]

Hanging Chad change is cool

[mild crane]

i usually liked it

but ig i see what you mean

[granite helm]

New 8ball is like half as effective as pre-planets 8ball was on average, but a higher ceiling now

[mild crane]

anaglyph gold sticker hunting massive buff

[teal dirge]

Negative Tag could just be a random $8 crap joker and that not great

[stable knot]

hanging chad + photograph:

[mild crane]

true

[snow wagon]

Unrelated, but should ancient joker only selected suits from your deck, cuz getting diamond ancient joker in checker deck is sad

[dim parcel]

this is a good thing tho sticker hunting should be less tedious

[raven vapor]

nah that would make it a good card lol

[hardy rock]

Ancient would be INSANE if it allowed filtering

[half light]

Haha

[teal dirge]

Olbep is fine imo

[half light]

Odd todd change in fun

[mild crane]

oh yeah i'm happy about it

[teal dirge]

Its x2 so its insane to make it filter suits

[hushed grotto]

The ancient change is pretty good tbh

Makes it WAY less likely to get screwed over by boss blinds

[snow wagon]

I thought it was 1.5

[hardy rock]

ancient is 1.5

[fervent beacon]

Banan is both a buff and nerf

[hushed grotto]

and by way less likely i mean impossible actually

if you skip big blind whenever it's a different suit from the debuffed one

[teal dirge]

What was x2 per suit?

[half light]

Lucky Cat change is good

[hushed grotto]

are you thinking of bloodstone?

[dim parcel]

banana is mostly a nerf tbh Id say

[teal dirge]

Im thinkg of Idol, nvm

Idol is card specific

[half light]

Campfire change is good

[snow wagon]

Old campfire was silly

[fervent beacon]

I put it in neutral tier because it technically is a buff to gros michel itself and someone was gonna "um ackshually" me

[snow wagon]

Haha 7x mult

[mild crane]

real

[half light]

Pretty good nerf

[elfin glade]

BUFFED YORICK YOOOO

[livid lantern]

Buff to michel, nerf to cavendish

[coarse fable]

yup major nerf, you want gros to die for cavendish

[teal dirge]

Whats up with the Onyx nerf? Clubs already felt kinda meh

[snow wagon]

Onyx was great

[fervent beacon]

Idk

[dim parcel]

apparently wanted flushes nerfed

[mild crane]

ah makes sense

[hardy rock]

onyx was good before, i d k about over powered but it'll still be good at +7

[teal dirge]

Yeah but clubs didnt have much going for them overall

[dim parcel]

sinful jokers got hit too which confuses me

[hushed grotto]

Clubs were the best suit, idk if onyx needed a nerf though

[fervent beacon]

Idk how to feel about it

[hushed grotto]

especially with flushes already not being the best option at high stakes

[snow wagon]

bloodstone giga buff

[half light]

Invisible Joker got a crazy buff

[fervent beacon]

Spades better + ratio

[dim parcel]

but theyre strong in white stake I guess

[hushed grotto]

Onyx was like one of the few ways to make it work

[mild crane]

choices choices

[hushed grotto]

I suppose 8 mult to 7 mult isn't a HUGE change though

[manic canopy]

perishable sticker makes me sad but its better than packs costing a bajillion

[wide grove]

w bloodstone/onyx change i'm def smacking that ❤️ button

[teal dirge]

Hearts felt the best IMO

[coarse fable]

flushes can become an option again at higher stakes. All five card hands are viable again probably

[hushed grotto]

For endless hearts are the best

[snow wagon]

I think flush changes should have the effective +1 in hand size for good stake now

[hushed grotto]

ok which deck should i try gold stake on first

[stable knot]

to me hearts and spades felt the best

[teal dirge]

Im surprised there wasnt Rough Gem or Arrowhead changes

[mystic oriole]

stuntman nerf , -50 chips sad

[hushed grotto]

maybe i'll revisit magic deck

haven't played it in so long lmao

[mystic oriole]

bloodstone buff yoooo

[mild crane]

felt nice

[mystic oriole]

and hanging chad buff

[teal dirge]

Arrowhead could use like +5 more and Rough Gem maybe like $1 more

[snow wagon]

Pallete voucher unlock was nerfed cuz gold stake change

[hushed grotto]

Arrowhead is really good already

[teal dirge]

I dont feel very inclined to take Rough Gem or Arrowhead that often

[mild crane]

why

also shouldn't this be free

[manic canopy]

LO

[teal dirge]

Theyre good but they feel overshadowed

[hushed grotto]

yeah thunk knows about the uncommon tag bug

[snow wagon]

Punished for vampire crimes

[mild crane]

ah ok

[stable knot]

ah yes sure, let's make arrowhead give more chips than stuntman without retriggers

[frail belfry]

It's fixed now if you update!

[mild crane]

how 2 update

[frail belfry]

You can verify game files in steam

[autumn egret]

played a couple gold stake games on new patch, i love the QoL changes but i'm iffy on rental/perishable. think it'll take some getting used to, having the extra hand size feels awesome

[frail belfry]

and it'll force update

[mild crane]

thank u localthunk

[teal dirge]

Pivot from High Card in Gold as the meta was the goal with Stuntman AFAIK

[grand sedge]

Got my game updated

[manic canopy]

wait wtf

the uncommon and rare tags now seem so good

[teal dirge]

Stuntman in Gold Stake was king

[manic canopy]

and the edition tags

[dim parcel]

the ante 1 gamble

[manic canopy]

wtfff

[half light]

The uncommon/rare/edition tag changes are great

[manic canopy]

like thats actually insane

i love it

[snow wagon]

Inb4 needle

[stable knot]

I know, still makes the idea of arrowhead giving more chips than stuntman weird to me

[hushed grotto]

first buffoon pack on the new update and i got a polychrome wrathful joker LMAO

[wide grove]

ppl just gonna speedrun early stakes w the skip buffs

[mild crane]

good luck

[dim parcel]

of course its perishable LOL

[wide grove]

therein lies the danger

[mild crane]

oof

[snow wagon]

Free negative - it’s a rental

[wide grove]

ok maybe the free joker should be guaranteed to not be perishable, but can be eternal/rental

😛

[frail belfry]

perishables also encourage skipping

[stable knot]

why tho

[wide grove]

yea there's a lot of skipping getting charted for me now

[snow wagon]

Being able to actually engage with skipping now is sick

[autumn egret]

with tags making it easier to find good replacements, that makes sense

[tepid copper]

i'm a bit confused about the madness change

[hushed grotto]

Yeah i always loved how food jokers indirectly encourage skipping, glad to see even more of that with this new update

[coarse fable]

Skips are a very viable and probably important part of the meta now, especially in the early game

[hushed grotto]

And they don't run out as quickly!

[tepid copper]

does it not destroy a joker on the boss blind now?

[snow wagon]

No destroy and no buff yeah

[frail belfry]

Madness slight reduced scaling and slightly more control if you don't want to yeet any of your jokers

via skipping

[dim parcel]

bizarre lineup

[tepid copper]

i see

[manic canopy]

wait

is yorick just really good now

[half light]

I hate to be annoying but i don't understand how to update

[snow wagon]

Merry Andy unlock speedrun

[manic canopy]

5 full discards for an extra 1x mult sounds insane

[coarse fable]

localthunk do you want runs to be going faster, is that why skips are now very much t h e w a y

[wide grove]

i'm gonna grab lusty joker every run still

w this bloodstone buff

[frail belfry]

I don't think skips are the way

they're better now

[autumn egret]

i'm not sure how much i like the leaning into skips, like i want to play hands. skips felt like a useable but niche option before

[wide grove]

they really make me not want to touch SB above white stake

[fierce mica]

I think they are all pretty even now when considering both High Stakes & Going For High Scores - Blue is pretty fantastic for Orange/Gold stake runs with High Card, Pairs, etc. Think this was a fantastic small tweak that will make a huge difference

[mild crane]

GAH

[snow wagon]

Skips were terrible on purple+

[coarse fable]

A more viable option at higher stakes, very much so

[mild crane]

the tooth and rental sent me -11 into debt

[manic canopy]

these changes incentivize you to skip more now which i think is nice

[wide grove]

need more spectral cards to set $ to 0 😉

[dim parcel]

annoyingly I was routing a least money run

and now I have to account for rentals

[manic canopy]

WHAT

[wide grove]

oh btw is that getting patched up? i.e. not setting money to $0 if you're negative

[manic canopy]

DOUBLE LUCKY CARD

MAGICIAN MY BELOVEEEEED

[snow wagon]

Just don’t buy rentals 🙂

[dim parcel]

Ihave to buy rentals! for least money

[hardy rock]

First impressions from 3 wins now, the skip tag changes make you FLUSH with cash

[hushed grotto]

cooking

[hardy rock]

the consistency from the first baffoon pack is really nice, but not game breaking

[hushed grotto]

New invisible joker goes so hard

[wise shard]

vagabond would be absolutely perfect for rental

[hardy rock]

we're maybe too rich because of the tag changes, not sure

[signal schooner]

Do we keep the progress that we make on the experimental branch?

[hardy rock]

i'm getting to insane money like every run

[hardy rock]

yes

[snow wagon]

Anaglyph invest seems absurd ante 2

[knotty python]

Anyone know if rentals and perishables show up at the same rate as eternals?

[signal schooner]

Thank you. Did localthunk confirm this?

[hardy rock]

No, i confirmed on my own

[manic canopy]

what is this swashbuckler buff

HOLY

[hardy rock]

unlock something-> go play normal by switching betas, progress was kept

[wide grove]

yeah i do feel very rich

[livid lantern]

Wait hang on gift card + swash = really dang good now

[manic canopy]

WAIT

THE BLOODSTONE BUFF

HOLY
