Balatro has 23 boss blinds (and five final boss blinds) which can appear at the end of each ante.
Just 23, though? BORING!
How about 120?!
In this mod, the boss blinds are based not on Phoenician letters, but on the 120 sitelen pona glyphs used in the constructed language toki pona.

Most of these Blinds' effects aren't set in stone. Feel free to suggest changes!
(Also, the 23 original boss blinds are still here!)
There is one word missing from the list, but I'll worry about tracking it down tomorrow

hand must not contain x is a pretty unfair boss blind
if your build doesnt require you to play that it does nothing
if it does then you're dead
also manacle is -1, not -2
atomic hill
if your build doesnt require you to play that it does nothing
Keep in mind this is any hand that contains that hand as well
Same rules as the Sly Joker et al

maybe do sina - the mirror and mi - the self?

Wait I have a better idea
"Jokers are disabled for any hand that contains <x>"
You can still play the hand, but you'd just be getting the same number of chips you would on round 1
spring aurora
that's effectively the same blind on higher antes
gritty shoal
Interesting idea
atomic hill
If it gives 100 chips it now gives 50
If it gives +5 mult it now gives +2
If it gives x2 mult (a 100% increase) it now gives x1.5 mult (a 50% increase)
gritty shoal
btw if you need more ideas I made a similar thread #1237926212882665473 message

By the way a few notes on the placement of a few Blinds:
"mani" in toki pona can mean both "money" and "cow"
"pu" technically refers to a certain textbook on learning toki pona, but I didn't have anywhere else to put The Pillar so
atomic hill
WAIT
IDEA
For the "Hand must not contain <x>" Blinds
Instead it makes hands that DO contain that hand cost two hands to play instead of one

OH WHY DID I JUST FIND THIS NOW
I made toki pona boss blind ideas like 3 weeks ago lol
ill look at this
(i included some extra words that i found in nimi.li)

okay i might need to add pages to the blind collection...
steel depot
blind collection?

like the tab in-game where it shows all the blinds

i had idea for 1000 blinds
67 regular blinds
766 boss blinds
and 167 finishing blinds

with 120 blinds it's gonna go off the side of the screen

with 120 blinds it's gonna go off the side of the screen
the toki pona im using will probably end up wtih >150 blinds added

Yeah I knew one of them was missing but I couldn't quite figure out which one. I added it back

It would be really cool if some boss blinds gave you negative jokers that halve your score if their condition is not met
steel depot
Must XXX this round

What do you mean by XXX

Oh
Boss: Hands must score less than the required score

im not gonna use that word ever probably but im just using it here idk

nanpa nimisin are always kind of strange to me
I kinda like "neja" if only for the fact that it doesn't sound at all like "four", tbh
Neither do "san" or "luka" but you get the idea
half relic
oh The Divergent is quite silly
normal flame
the target could make you place a specific hand
i feel like that would be a neat idea
the cross could maybe be the opposite of the mark, but that could be very hard to beat
half relic
that's way worse than the old "No Straights" blind which was already stupid
normal flame
well maybe instead of not allowing the hand, it just debuffs the cards played
so they dont score anything
the apple will disable doctors
The flag could debuff enhanced cards / non enhanced cards
The guard could maybe not allow a lethal hand until a non-lethal hand is played
The agent could randomly disable 1 card in your hand
The possibility could retrigger random chance effects (ie gros michel, glass cards and such)
i feel like the deed could maybe disable seal effects
the bystander could disable cards that weren't played
well the demand is just an easier target so i guess that idea doesnt work
the shell could be like must play a hand with at least 1 unscored card (sorry splash enjoyers)
drowsy thicket
The Dream could be: Hands that don’t contain (card rank) are not allowed
gritty shoal
Had an idea to improve upon the "x hand type is disabled"
Instead it could be something like "reduced chips and mult until x hand is discarded"
so you would have a score penalty unless you discarded a two pair
Idea for pakala (the disaster)
All positive probabilities (lucky cards, bloodstone) never happen, all negative probabilities (glass cards, cavendish) always happen
drowsy thicket
Had an idea to improve upon the "x hand type is disabled"
Instead it could be so...
That is a cool spin on the idea! Maybe we could also have a blind revolving around holding a specific hand?
steel depot
i feel like there shouldnt be a blind that debuffs 78% of all jokers
also is taso - The Loner stopping duplicate cards or all cards of same rank/suit
atomic hill
Idea for pakala (the disaster)
All positive probabilities (lucky cards, bloodst...
I think I used that one already
"All random events always give the least favorable outcome"
atomic hill
Also, one idea I had based on the Everdeck
We already sort suits by red and black, but what about sorting them the other way
Spades and Diamonds both have sharp tops, while Clubs and Hearts both have round tops
I've added four blinds to the list that each affect two suits
Because they affect more suits, the intensity of the effect on each specific one is lower
In this case, rather than blocking the card from scoring entirely, it only reduces it to a 50% chance not to score
These bosses are linja (The Wire), lipu (The Flag), soweli (The Wolf), and toki (The Orator)
I've also come up with the idea for some blinds to affect a specific rank
In that case they have an even greater effect
Rather than simply debuffing the card, these blinds make the card worth negative chips
steel depot
negative chips is a not much after a few antes worst case (without hiker counting as negative) is like -55 chips
atomic hill
Hmm
What about everything about the card going in reverse
+chips subtracts chips
+mult subtracts mult
xmult divides mult
Cards that give you money now make you lose money
acoustic portal
Are finisher boss blind designs accepted?
steel depot
sama: ranks of played cards must be even (divisible by 2)
pipi: ranks of played cards must be divisible by 8
this just makes pipi just a harder version of sama
copper venture
like the sums of ranks?
steel depot
thats whats on the list
yeah sums
i might write some feedback but I dont want to sound harsh by writing like 2 KB worth of stuff
acoustic portal
Obsidian Spade: All cards are drawn face down, but the score required is only 1x base rather than the usual 2x
Silver Saber: You can only draw 2/3 of your deck before your deck runs out
Bronze Token: Lose 1/2 of your money on each hand, jokers with sell value greater than the amount of money you hold are debuffed
Ivory Thread: Debuff the first three scoring cards of each played hand
acoustic portal
jokers with sell value greater than the amount of money you hold are debuffed

when you design a blind, keep in mind your text have to fit in exactly two lines
(roughly 9-10 words max)

atomic hill
Are finisher boss blind designs accepted?
Sure :3
Wait idea
sama (The Scales) - Card ranks must be balanced on either side of the hand
On a 2 card hand, both cards have to have the same rank
On a 3 card hand, the first and last card have to have the same rank
On a 4 card hand, cards 1 and 2 have to have the same sum as cards 3 and 4
And on a 5 card hand, cards 1 and 2 have to have the same sum as cards 4 and 5
Aces are treated as 14, Kings as 13, Queens as 12, Jacks as 11, and number cards as their number
So for instance, A4(anything)99 is a valid hand
Because 14 + 4 = 18, and 9 + 9 = 18
kind pendant
using card IDs for balance seems unintuitive and also doesn't make sense with added ranks
I feel like it makes more sense to just use the base chip value
foggy basin
> jokers with sell value greater than the amount of money you hold are debuffed
so just spend a lot of money before the boss
vagabond style

wouldn't you wanna hoard money? I think you have that backwards

I feel like it makes more sense to just use the base chip value
Probably yea

I think that's all 120 blinds
Ooo wait idea
What if the final-boss blinds were instead based on the nimi ku suli
Lessee uhh
Alabaster Mushroom (soko)
Magenta Compendium (ku)
Midnight Foreigner (kokosila)
Viridian Cube (leko) - The effects of one joker at random are reversed when this blind is selected
Yes that's a VVVVVV reference
Octarine Raccoon (kijetesantakalu) - The Big Kahuna of blinds (a whopping x10 base) but you get 3x as many hands
Pastel Liege (tonsi)

@atomic hill idea for n: 3-5 out of 7 (or heck, maybe even all) cards are face down. simple and unoriginal, i know, but if the wall has a final boss blind variant, why not the wheel?
also we should do one for polinpin
ohohohoh, maybe make ku "all enchanted and/or non-base edition cards and/or jokers are debuffed"
