Your turn
he says he thinks its utility
yea its utility
ok lets see...
does it give you hands, discards, hand size, or make a hand easier to play. (any of these being true means yes otheriwse no)
bro eleminated an entire group
WAIT I THINK I KNOW?
what is bro asking
lol
bros asking an equation rn
-1 life
Yeah
bros bout to hit the discord character limi-never fucking mind
is it splash?
why the hell would u do that
2 lives both of you
what are yall doing
braining out
well splash is utility that can trigger more then once per blind
..
it fits everything so far
Does it make any legendary jokers easier to use (better)
secretly asking if its merry andy LMAO
alr is it merry andy
broooo omg
I donāt think maze has it in mind so nice
i mean sock but thats retrigger not utility
you couldve asked if its realted to discards first, man use ur life carefully
-1 life?
i asked immediately because merry andy helps legendary jokers and fits everything else so far (other than maybe triggering more than once per blind)
No
maze dead?
Not a loss
no i wasnt asking
i was saying sock helps legendaries i wasnt guessing sock
i gotta guess first unless related to discards was alr asked
it was
ok ur turn
Nah itās your turn
your turn. You asked if it gave discards
no im not i didnt guess sock
And maze isnāt dead
ok
i just stated that i helps legendaries
true. related to discards is more broad, my turn
We have time for guesses
maze 1 lives DDX 2 lives
You know itās unwinnable for the nonguess right
We can ask questions like
Very specific to any of the 150 jokers
Not even
like is it spelled m e r r y
@onyx juniper you have time to ask more info glean questions
it could be drunkard but i dont think so that was already one, it could be idol but i already did that, could be trading card but thats econ, it could be cartomancer but i dont think its creation
actually
wait heres my question
is it creation/destruction
oh come on
im cooked
I am very uncertain as to how that helps legendaries
u will see
I was considering things like paredollia
well im not gonna tell u cus ur my opponent
Oh I see
this sentence added so much confusion
def a destruction card
Youāre the one confused
Weāre locked the fuck in
i am certain
lmao
We know it could be a card destruction card
Or a card that makes face cards
Yeah how about that, is it a deckfix card
did we already ask if it was related to money (not necessarily econ just money)
do i have to forcefully say yes or no
no
Yes
lmao
it can
Maze is locked in
i think i have a 50/50
Sneaking in that Econ guess
did we already ask this
alr send it
They didnāt answer me tho
i cant yet 50% chance i just die, so did we already ask if it was RELATED to money period
i said it can deckfix
So yes
so it is related to money? or it can just deckfix
im confused
remember
whats your answer
i know
Deleting a card is deckfixing
but can you just answer, is it at all related to money
lemme think
it doesnt have to be econ, just if its related
My running theory is he doesnāt know how to feel about consumable cards
im not sure abt this one but im gonna change the deckfix question to no
oh really? but ur not sure if its related to money you say
not related to money
deleting a card = deck fix
Sometimes Spawning a tarot or spectral = deckfix
Are you sure it isnāt deckfix
also @tight hinge is it your turn
Oh nice
ok if you consider that then its deckfix as well as econ related
thank you
thats huge
That might be the 50:50 gone
yall have 4 lives left in total
your turn right ddx?
so its ez
i have 1 he has 2
@tight hinge can you go please
Yeah itās my turn
yeah
yeah and im holding back lol
Trying to think how it helps legendaries in other ways than Yorick
me too im losing certainty about that one
i forgot you 2 are competing
ok my last life. is the joker...
CARTOMANCER? PLEASE
Tragic
NOOOOOO
gg maze
now help ddx win
Nah nah
he can do it himself
Whatās another card destruction. That was my 50:50
damn i was too confident
im making new rule: you cant ask if it starts with a letter
I was considered trading card but he got so mixed up with the deckfix thing
well yeah questions like that should be outlawed they have to be related to the game
Itās unwinnable, king
Does it destroy a card
just ask more specific things
Does it create consumables
i realize im gonna have 3 hours of sleep. thats definitely not gonna catch up to me later
omfg
Does it create tarots
am i gonna win
Does it create spectrals
yeah
šØ
its joever
Itās not 6 sense as we know
Is it colored green in any part of the card
lemme check
no
i can start answering questions now lol ik what it is
Anti-perkeo tech
no green
Does it proc on a straight flush
im making new rule: no appearance quesitons
š
no way
we probably both did
yeah i thought of it but i thought it was probably tarot creation for a while
wait we broke the rules
I was considering 6 sense, trading card, and then tarot and seance
He doesnāt, no
so we broke rule
sore loser
i knew what it was
ššš
yeah it was so obvious after i died lol
that was intense
Okay donāt be mad
But I wanted to pull you into guessing
With the green joker thing
huh
and also to give the next question to you
but i couldnt guess i was dead
wdym
Cause thatās when I had like 5 cards in my mind
No like way back when you had 3 lives
also why would i be mad those are tactics
should we keep ability to ask questions after dying
i remember
I guessed green joker
THE TACTICS
no
alr
can i go now btw
Yeah your 1 life advantage
Making it safe to guess
but not really cause if weāre both on 2 itās fucked
alr whos turn now
Theirs
his
ok i have one if im gonna go
no
its never scoring
Can its effect in any way be described as āduplicateā
does it effect handsize/hands/discards
no
btw yes š (joke obv)
Does it have yellow text (cash) in its effect description
come on man :( yes
ooooo
no
nice one
i see the tactics
alr lemme cook
no
nice
What scaling Econ card isnāt a cashout effect (not a question for maze)
out of curiosity
egg and gift card
yes
ooof
i got this
i only got 2 jokers in my mind
if i get it wrong
thenddx takes it
yikeroonies
Teehee
rebate
no
SHIT
2 lives left
what was your other option
its your question
he doesnt have to tell you that lol
and im not telling
yeah but I have like 4 jokers in mind
lmao
im taking notes here
theres only 1 left
wait no i forgot 1 more
so 2 more left
no theres 1 more š
3 left
Yeah thereās a fair amount
I think āis it retrigger synergyā would be huge but itās too much info
ask it
Is it todolist

Nice
haoshoashohoahhhhhhhhhhh
Did you have that card in your 3 left btw
yes
donāt have to say what the three were
its rough gem
weāll see
this your guess or you just stating that?
š
š„
Vagabond, ticket, rough gem, matador
myy other option was golden ticket
lmaoooo gg
gtg
yeah i was narrowing it down in my head too like i was playing
Ew
balala lol
Iām so proud of the multiple times per blind question
yeah that narrowed it down a lot
Sorry for saying yellow text btw
you should be proudest of the yellow money shown on card that basically narrowed it down from like 100 to 10 lmaoooo
Very cheesy way to target Econ and econ scaling
Yes exactly
which is luck not skill but mega luck
āEconā versus cash
@tired adder awake from your slumber and play with us again frfr
We can go you and me
yoooo
Iāll host then
alr
fair enough
ill go 2 then if i go next
3 lives, lose a life only for joker guesses
mhm
and no 2 in a row
Iām ready
alr is it scoring
someone ask lol
is it econ
is it scaling
is it xmult
its scoring, dont know many scoring econ
is it related to your deck
Not Econ
thats econ-related
can it reset
yeah
btw not my turn
oh yes it is
Itās maze or lilo now
is it related to card enhancements
constellation?
is it poker hand trigger
mannnn
-1 life
nice lets goo
lilo 2 lives left
ik
its not poker hand trigger
-1
I WASTED A LIFE
I KNEW IT WASNT RELATED TO ENHANCEMENTS
h
Tragic
Surprised it lasted this long
breh
Nope
asking if its a legendary seems fine, just the rest arent
loll the workaround to is it legendary
cause its only 5 jokers
yea
Spirit of the rule is to not choke you into one rarity
āIs it from soulā is fine imo
jimbo falls under that, technically
it could be ramen but doubt
does it have a downside
No
ok
Nevermind
so not madness
Aarush tanks the 1 life loss
so scaling xmult, unrelated to hands, no direct downside
in a brave save of maze
so it cant decrease?
cant reset
hm
Cannot decrease or reset
im confuzzled
can riff raff spawn it :3
lilo did u guess holo or const
no thats not allowed
Nope
i guessed const
ahh yes common scaling xmult
ok im gona bite the bullet i think
does it involve adding or creating, or does it benefit from adding or creating
no u didnt ask
well im at 2 lives
rulebreak
so its not hologram
Card creation and deletion are unrelated
where
lilo asked 2 quesitons
do (any) card editions help it? EDITIONS not enhancements
(game master) :3
Itās gonna strike like lighting lol
well
aw man
i dont see how they would lol
not stencil
does its scaling value show on its description
right.
No. You have to randomly guess how much xmult you get
they all do
WHAT
this is a silly question
Iām kidding
ik what it is
lol
i didnt realize this was sarcasm for a whole second and a half
Spend the life then
no
then spend a life
I have a big hint thatās not effect related
we already asked scaling š
ddx didnt asnwer it
it doesnt matter
i asked so u can ask
ok
ddx was being sarcastic
does it have retrigger synergy
dddx tell
Next message is a card name or I kill you in Minecraft
I was joking
it has xmult on it
so i dont have a joker in mind
Like every xmult ever
answer @tight hinge
so its not baseball
Now I wanna hear the joker name
No
that SAYS
what are u on about
it just doesnt say how much it gives on it
i asked if it shows the scaled value on the joker
so not baron aj or any of that
Baseball is kinda greyish area. I see what they meant. But itās not really scaling imo
baseball dosent show if it will give 1.5x 3 or 4 times
i wouldnt say baseball is scaling, no
Mime also isnāt scaling
it'd be like saying odd todd is scaling
Yeah
i meant baseblal
i meant baron lol
yeah baseball isnt scaling
wait what
and they said mime cause they asked about retriggers
baseball is scaling
no it isnt
how
I sell all my uncommon jokers. How much has baseball scaled
baron isnt scaling too then right?
Nope
baron is scaling?
see this is what i was talking abt with my scaling definition
Less so because held in hand is very variable
how is baron scaling but not baseball
is it hand related
Baron is not scaling
???
although, technically, if baseball isnt scaling you could say stone isnt scaling cus you could hang all of ur stone
ok. does it copy the effect of another joker (invis doesnt count)
why did u ā on this then
thats a bad way of phrasing a question
ok
baron isnt scaling
Ig i was agreeing with no
it is if u perkeo cryptid or something
But tldr Baron doesnāt scale
alr lets move on
yeah lol
Youāre all gonna get mad as hell btw
not hand related
im stumped tbh, its not related to enhancements
Like think simpler
related to discards/handsize?
im gonna ask
so not lucky cat, steel, glass, none of that
does it do something other than giving mult
just xmult
It only gives xmult
hm
lol
do u need to sacrifice to scale it
is it related to a specific type of card
You do not destroy cards to scale
hm like glass joker
ANSWER ME
already did chill out
which it isnt btw no enhancements lol
when
also u broke a rule
like campfire
mb
not camp, it resets
Campfire is sacrificial?
oh wait mb
ur fine
campfire also resets
sacrifice yout consumables lol
on-sell should be included in "destruction"
so cola, luchador, invis
and jokers if ur a chad like that
It is not destruction related, including on sell
alr
selling dosent count as destruction
im saying it should for this case
It is not sell related
alr
ok
im so stumped ngl
I canāt believe this is how bad this joker is
is it only "technically" xmult, and not explicitly xmult
That it escapes the mind of anyone who beats green stake
idol :o (joke)
Itās an xmult effect
crazy lmao
alr
does it pour all the x mult in one shot
Iām laughing at the idea of one of you telling everyone what it is
oh
what is that phrasing
It doesnāt reset
Idk what you mean
is it conditional
ok lemme rephrase
i already asked if its related to your deck so its not hologram
No. It applies its scaled xmult value all the time
alright
ohhh good one but is there scaling conditional xmult?
its not pokerhand related
HAHAHAHA
jesus
ooooooooooof
WAIT NAH
it immediately clicked
alright ill go
I told you
where did ddx answer the conditional
Escapes the mind of anyone who beats green stake
HOLY SHIT I THOUGHT YOU MADE A MISTAKE OR SOMETHING
U WERE RIGHT
Itās also the only retroactive xmult
or eternal
how
Ye I considered *stickers
not for my specific one, but just for the proverbial bank of questions
alr ddx ur turn?
But itās essentially mostly food jokers and sell effects
mine
??? š
alr
ddx just went
ik
ok
Itās your turn
alr lilo r u ready
yes
Iām just making a throwback joke
is it econ
no
Scoring
Scaling
reset/descaling
Too soon
can decrease.
+mult?
Hm. Depending on your definition of scaling itās just green joker.
Is it green joker?
:o
-1 life
Tragic, worth a shot tho
scaling is just 'can the value on the joker increase or decrease'
is it abstract joker
not AND
oof
dude not scaling
yes it is
its not econ related so it cant be squashbuckler
the value on abstract can both increase and decrease
oh i guess... it can go up and down
true
alr thats our definition
if it can increase or decrease, ya.
does it always keep track of its potential +mult in the background (retroactive, and intended to include stuff like erosion)
@onyx juniper @tight hinge thoughts?
Yeah
does it destroy anything
Itās not swash
not dager
Is it capped below 60 mult
does it relate to poker hands
what joker is capped below 60
u can get infinite negatives for abstract joker
yeah
okay so not erosion or abstract
is it related to consumables
if we're talking capped, im talking about a hard cap
Wait no
is it related to poker hands
Abstract is technically not capped
yeah
erosion cant go above (52*4) in vanilla rn
so its not supernova
oh so my question doesnt count
it cant be supernova
is it food
Can it scale within a blind still being played
how many lives do i have
Thatās your job
uhh still 3, no?
i think i guessed 1
we can put our lives in our names lol
im at 2 i belivee
alr aarush is at 2
so not red card
agreeing
Or flashcard
yes
im not gonna count those as guesses even tho im responding like they are
is it related to any ranks?
its not poker hand related so its not spare pants
Is it poker hand related
I donāt remember that being asked so Iām doin it
we alr know its not supernova i believe
yeah it was asked, and no
woah guys checkmark i won!!1!!
It can decrease anyways
its not a legendary
Which is kinda the big deal for me
not scaling
do i lose a life
no i didnt answer
u rescinded your question
was fortune teller alr mentioned
Is it food (you said no right)
not food.
yes its not
not ride the bus since its not face card related
What else can go down besides popcorn and green and bus
i have no idea its not money related so not bootstraps
are you guessing popcorn
no
not food
it can go up and down
baiting us into guessing something its not huh aarush
is it only +mult
And itās uncapped
green joker was already guessed
IS IT EROSION
right?
yeah erosion is capped at base deck size * 4
Iām almost certain yes
yeah its not groker
not abstract or swash
no. 1 life
Yeah 1 life
not raised fist it doesnt scale. hm
we aliminated that ages ago
Yeah yeah
yeah raised fist isnt scaling technically
because the value on the card doesnt go up or down
but
i have no idea
no
why not
right okay
Red card canāt decrease
its a bit of an odd one
is it econ related
cause theres no other joker like that
just confirming
id argue no.
Can it scale multiple times a round
it can
can the +mult trigger multiple times on same played hand (except copy jokers)
onyx agate/fib/those arent scaling
dam
read this wrong
you should compile your answers so u know what not to guess to make it easier
i should take a pen and a page
again, i think an assumption you made before is leading to some confusion.
it's independent +mult right?
unconditional scoring, yes.
Does it reset or only drop by a little
i went back to start to figure out the wrong assumption lilo talked about
didnt find it
decreases. doesnt "reset"
Is it even + mult
ahashuahhsa
Okay phew
its not related to money (bootstraps) not rank (stm) not money (swash) not hand related (trousers) not popcorn (not food) not fortune teller (just said not fortune teller also it doesnt go down) not erosion (capped) not red or flash card (in shop) not grimbo (said explicitly) not ride the bus (not related to face cards) not supernova (explicitly said, poker hands) not abstract (said) not fist (said) not misprint (said)
the assumption you made is somewhere in here.
thats all ill say :3
either one of these is wrong or im forgetting a scaling +mult
alr @tired adder did we name that joker since your turn started
is it related to money?
BOOTS
s
thats econ related.
Rip me
is it flash card
money related isnt necessarily econ related
wth money related econ related same thing
Guessed that and itās not scalable in blind
explain
is it swash
its not related to the money you have
i would argue swash isnt econ related
WOOHOOOOOO
its sell value related
š
EXPLAIN ECON RELATED AND MONEY RELATED
I swore we guessed swash but man
you said "it cant be swash or abstract"
then abstract was guessed
Yeah rip
@tired adder
found the assumption yep
yeah
@tired adder
???
Money
gift card and egg are econ jokers
they dont give you money
they give you sell value
How does swash affect your econ
so whats money related
directly related to money
Which is like, bull and boot
i.e bull/boots/rebate, etc
Swash cares about the sell value of jokers
how is econ related and money related different
vagabond is money related
i dont get it
Is knife Econ related
swash IS NOT MONEY RELATED
is this a good nickname or too cocky lol
GN?
swash does not care how much money you have
golden needle
u said its not econ related right?
Itās sell value related
its related to econ 3 steps away. i would say thats a stretch
thats the same as every joker being econ
so that econ and money confusion was all
yeah i would say it isnt
its $ related, but not econ related
because sell value
then egg and gift card are money related and not econ related?
swash is related to econ by
sell value -> egg/gift increase sell value
since sell value
again, thats a stretch
i think knife is econ related in practice but for the sake of the game it would be confusing to call it econ related
yeah
I think half of the Econ confusion can be avoided by including the use of yellow text
ya
pls make econ related and money related count as the same thing
those give you econ
vagabond is money related, definitely not econ related
what does economy actually mean
its an incredibly vague term
in balatro it means how well your money is going
so i agree its a bit eh
and its like how
every joker is econ and every joker is scoring
but its just silly
so using strict definitions is better
like if youre above 25 then u have good econ, $5 interest every round and whatnot
so basically all sell value related jokers are money related and the rest are econ related
but ig we dont have a strict definition for econ
they all have sell value though
so would all jokers be econ?
econ means it helps you get money.
they all do
money-related means it is related to money like swash
i mean the jokers which get buffed by more sell value are?
ig true good scoring beats blind faster more money
so by money related you mean sell value related?
by money related i mean if it refers to or benefits from money
i would be willing to accept that swash and dagger are econ related
Cash/money: Yellow text involved at all
Econ: Provides value thatās usually equivalent or exploitable as cash (astronomer, chaos)
Sell effect: relates to sell value
from now on
i still think swash is a little iffy but yeah i mean you had to get the money for swash at some point
no confusion
yeah
Economy is meant to describe an economic system. In this case a run
So if itās āeconā itās value generation without money
eh
i mean i couldve just asked if the joker gets buffed if u have more money
econ is usually meant in a way that includes cash generation too
but yeah this is fine
yeah
Iād like to poke more holes here
that yellow text one was so fun when we were guessing maze's rough gem
