Which gave me time to experiment with blueprint placement

#

sorta helped me understand kt

#

I was using blue deck, black stakes

#

I think if u use the deck that evens out chips and mult it could have gone further but idk

opal wadi
#

oh 100%

#

and if you used enough planet cards

supple locust
#

oh yeah

#

my flush was like at least lv40

opal wadi
#

dayum

#

it definetly wouldve been better

supple locust
#

I gotta try it out again on a seeded run when I unlock that deck

#

cause that’s what I’m working for rn

cerulean orbit
#

fucking chicot

#

going for double chico for the fuck of it

#

2 is not enough time to go for 3

#

dawg i died that last run, but i just got another legendery card

#

and guess fucking what

#

its fucking chicot

obtuse patrol
#

Enjoy photo of switch

sly cypress
#

It scales absolutely abysmally and you have 1 card in hand

#

So auto lose to psychic

obtuse patrol
#

Lmao

#

If beating ante 8 is bad then I'm terrible

sly cypress
#

I mean it works it’s just

#

Only chips aren’t very good on plasma

obtuse patrol
#

I mean it is

#

I don't think I recommend it to others for gold stake but like any other time it's perfectly doable

cerulean orbit
#

if it works it works aye

sly cypress
#

It just scales so poorly and requires very specific jokers

#

And almost every one of your joker needs to be scoring

obtuse patrol
#

Chips 😛

sly cypress
#

Would a lost vs every other boss blind

#

Other than

#

Acorn

#

But no one loses to acorn

obtuse patrol
#

I have reroll boss blind voucher and only lose to Violet vessel if even poggies

jagged raptor
sly cypress
#

Well chips are good for early game

#

But they just don’t scale well

#

XMult is still just better

jagged raptor
#

nobody is saying it scales well

#

floyd is very obviously just beating the game, not going for high ante

#

so no xmult is not better

#

if ur gonna backseat at least make sure you know what youre talking about 😭

obtuse patrol
#

Really what it comes down to is playing chips only really doesn't work on anything else so when I play plasma it tends to be what I play. Idc of it's suboptimal because i think it's fun.

The beauty of balatro is you can have fun and win at the same time

dusk island

what?! why would you suggest such things

#

you should NOT be having fun either balatro

  • onyx, acrobat and invis

#

actually so massive

south meadow
#

had a few options to choose from to gold sticker but settled on invis

#

felt like its one of the harder ones to do

wooden pecan
#

it’s one of the “literally useless” jokers

obtuse patrol
#

My balatro runs finally got verified

opaque spire
#

what cats

obtuse patrol
#

plasma white stake skips and the 1st is red stake which is literally the same as white stake so no one plays it

#

I just ran red because ajai mentioned that there was only 1 run at the time

native trellis
#

there are 0 runs for blue stake

#

or purple or orange LMAO

obtuse patrol
#

yeah nothing other than white is worth playing really besides maybe gold but that sounds awful

cerulean orbit
#

ive had 2 invis jokers in a run, and both times ive sold them theyve given me arrowhead

cerulean orbit
#

i really dont know how this made it this far

#

ante 12 my beloved

cerulean orbit
#

I had a few polly chrome red spade aces

#

Rest of it was junk I wasn't able to get rid of cause I was getting like 0 tarot packs

opal wadi

I more meant which deck lol

#

Im assuming its plasma tho

obtuse patrol

what a start ngl

#

i took a gamba getting invis joker over something else, it paid off i had the boss blind where u have to sell a joker card, so i sold the invis

#

ive peaked

mans doing 100% in one stream that's gonna be a experience

cerulean orbit
#

stg whenever i wanna wildcard build i dont get wildcard tarots at all

#

but when i dont they pop up all the time

wooden pecan
obtuse patrol
#

Probably a deck built around wild cards

#

If I gotta take a guess

wooden pecan
#

what cards are involved in a wildcard build

obtuse patrol
#

Ancient joker

#

Probably flush / straight flush

wooden pecan
obtuse patrol
#

And you could have all for 100%

#

Idk not my build

wooden pecan
#

the 0.1% chance isn't really relevant

obtuse patrol
#

Or you could just let bro play the game how he wants 😭

#

Yall have no joy or whimsy

wooden pecan
#

what are you talking about lmfao

#

anyways

#

my question stands for face

obtuse patrol
#

Everytime someone says something in this chat someone talks about how it's not optimal

#

Who cares bro just live and let live

wooden pecan
#

this is literally a group for people who are dedicated to specifically playing a game optimally

obtuse patrol
#

We aren't speedrunning balatro

wooden pecan
#

i'm not super surprised that most people here approach other games in similar ways tbh

obtuse patrol
#

And if someone doesn't do something optimally you don't need to say something every time if they don't ask for it

wooden pecan
#

why do you care if i was talking to him

#

i guess i can take it to dms next time

obtuse patrol
#

You replied to me

#

I gave my answer and you continued to reply to me about it

#

So I said what I thought

opaque spire
wooden pecan
#

i asked someone else a question about a strategy that i was interested in

#

and you complained that i'm bringing up strategy

obtuse patrol
opaque spire
#

how difficult is it to imagine what a wildcard build is?

obtuse patrol
#

Not talking about the game

wooden pecan
#

that's why i asked

obtuse patrol
#

Sometimes it's just fun to fill the deck with as many wildcards as you can even if it isn't optimal

wooden pecan
#

okay

obtuse patrol
#

That's all im saying

wooden pecan
#

that's fair

#

i'm asking about strategy

#

if you don't have an answer for that then that's chill

obtuse patrol
#

It's like talking to an npc with no new voice lines left 😭

wooden pecan
#

thanks

opaque spire

cerulean orbit
#

Yes what Floyd said

#

I just thought it would be some fun to do

wooden pecan
#

thanks

cerulean orbit
#

Everything I do is dumb fun, so I wouldnt give too much thought to anything I'm doing

timid belfry
#

definitely going into c++ grinding stone jokers gonna be last

#

if theres a consistent way i would love tk

obtuse patrol
#

Just get a stone card asap

#

Outside of that I don't think there's much you can do

hallow hazel
#

i assume plasma deck would be optimal

obtuse patrol
#

You can get rolled by plasma deck of you get unlucky but I do think it's a pretty easy way to get it

wooden pecan
#

you’re very weak to half of the final bosses and you can definitely just die

#

i’d recommend magic deck

#

you can get three stone cards so that stone joker is already useful enough and scaled

#

you won’t have a basically dead joker if you do that

wooden pecan
wooden pecan
sly cypress
#

idk about that

#

what is the context

wooden pecan
#

generally speaking ghost/blue are optimal for trying to get any joker; magic happens to be a good strategy for stone specifically though

sly cypress
#

ah

#

fair

wooden pecan
#

you can also do black deck only c++ like a chad

ive been trying to find stone joker, found a run with canio and perkeo and two triboulet runs

Stone joker is very elusive

Those aint too bad minus stone of course

opaque spire

not for finding the joker but still :p

timid belfry
#

the run died cause the canio was my only real form of mult too

iron spade
#

going for gold stake on the abandoned deck rn

#

any tips would be appreciated

obtuse patrol
#

If suggest trying to use hands like 4 or 5 of a kind. Less cards makes them easier and they scale with planets faster

#

Other than that I like hack and lucky cards but you gotta get luck for all of that to happen lol

iron spade

i feel like membership card is crazy weighted on that deck

ive gotten it as my starting one a lot

gloomy crystal

I get the base legendaries a lot

#

idk maybe its the classic "1 in 4" effect of it seeming weighted

#

like I got 3 canio's this run that I immediately sold cause canio sucks

jagged raptor
#

yeah canio is really boring in modded

#

i need to go back to cryptid

gloomy crystal
#

I play it multiplayer a lot

jagged raptor
#

i was doing very fair deck stakes with modded jokers disabled you literally have to get SO lucky LMFAO

gloomy crystal
#

honestly playing multiplayer makes cryptid a LOT more fun

#

but there are a lot of bugs with it to where it's not really possible to get a long run

cerulean orbit
#

i cant play cryptid without it crashing

i think it has to do with the planet cards

Does madness get the boost if it targets an eternal joker?

south meadow
#

madness will always kill a joker if possible

#

if all jokers are eternal it will still get the 0.5x

obtuse patrol

Madness doesnt get it's scaling from destroying jokers

#

it's two separate effects

iron spade

It will also gain mult if it is the only joker

do you believe in +0.5x or destroying jokers

#

they're both a part of the same theory 🫲 🫲

timid belfry
# dire fractal Why madness so high And why baron so low Baron has good synergy with stm

madness in white stakes like a d/f but likeee
it allows your eternal stake jokers in black stake or further to just not explode

baron just needs a lot of effort put into it in order to be good, if you have a baron without a lot of steel kings or joker levels it at max can only give x26.2 if you play a low hand, it goes before all other jokers

basically its just a bit weak unless you either run a high level high card, shoot the moon or a mime

Jokerless isn't actually that bad, saturn spam+a few glass cards should take care of it without too much effort (although 3/4/5 of a kind and flush work too), tbh it's probably the easiest of the three (and my favorite)
If you make it out of the first few antes for golden needle you can probably win, especially with a good econ
Cruelty is just pure rng hell, for that one all you can do is pick a deity and pray for an insane run lmao
GL with all 3!

obtuse patrol
#

I don't fuck with straights.

#

They never show up when I try and make them and I just always find them annoying to deck fix for

dapper scarab
#

Normally I don't either
but they make jokerless like 70-80% consistent which I can't just ignore
As for deckfixing, not much is required
just add a few of each card you want and kill everything else with hung men and immolate
Leaves room to focus econ on other things like planets and modifications

obtuse patrol
#

Yeah I just never know what i want to cut so i just tend not to bother going for deck fixing with them. As for jokerless id just always go for the 4/5 of a kind. Either way you're playing for the draw but I just find it much simpler to work with

  • sly and flash card
dire fractal
dapper scarab
#

Yea, Saturn is comically strong compared to 3oak or flush but those hands are far easier to fix towards and have more synergies
So that's probably why

obtuse patrol
#

Straights are just less consistent when it comes to making the hand, especially when starting, until you get to 4 of a kind

dire fractal
#

They’re slightly higher odds than a flush
If you account for all possible straights and all possible flushes

obtuse patrol
#

Yeah but you aren't drawing for all possible straights is the issue

#

And you often have to ruin future straights to create the first one

#

This is obviously true for anything but depending on draw can be insanely awkward to recover from

I did my first run and died 3 times to my final deck (ghost) and gave up

#

But it had just reached an hour at ghost deck and was my first attempt

#

Not bad, it's actually a pretty fun category but I need to figure out how to speed up my playstyle

#

At some point I just stop trying to skip cuz I be scaling jokers n shit so that could be the problem

obtuse patrol
#

I think like 3 or 4 decks took me two tries. A lot of it is building up to know when you can and can't skip it seems like.

#

why is 7decks a catagory? and does it have to be those 7?

It's the shorter of the half of 15

And it can be any 7 decks. No repeats obviously.

Is it just chips all the way down even on higher stakes

no

you need insane chips at higher antes to survive like

or just really reliable x mult

its pretty hard

i understand what you’re saying about naneinf being the end, but i also would never say to someone who’s excited about beating their first run something like “erm actually to beat the game you need an infinite score”

i see naneinf akin to postgame content, after you beat the main story

#

something along those lines

naneinf is a weird killscreen which is a technical end but youre not supposed to even get there so where you classify a win is where you feel best

is obelisk good

1⃣ yea
2⃣ nah

south meadow
#

Too niche to be “good” imo

#

The runs it can be used in its great but I just cba to think about it each time I play a hand

tranquil wing
#

it's super useful in the one niche it's good in, but you have to be lucky enough to find it during its niche

#

like if you're just about to pivot and you're lucky enough to find obelisk, it goes insane
but otherwise it's just restrictive

#

plus it is guaranteed to fail at some point
since you can only play so many hands until every hand becomes your most played
because the amount of times you've played will all be equal

#

it's like most rare jokers: SUPER good in their niche, not great otherwise

hallow hazel
#

it's not that niche if you just plan to win ante 8

#

it's just not that good for endless

tranquil wing
#

ig that's fair
i still think on higher stakes it's a lot riskier, especially if you don't have the money and/or build to pivot from your main hand
but on lower stakes where you have the money and lower scores to spend and take things crazier, that's fair

hallow hazel
#

i don't really like the playstyle myself tho

swift verge
#

whats the math on lusty joker over supernova here

+50 chips and essentially +21 mult or +23 mult that'll scale. I don't have any sort of other source of chip so ill probably end up getting more mult than chips even if i keep lusty joker here

#

110 chips from a flush + 50 foil + ~40 from hand + 20 from hanging ballot = ~200-220 chips
(14 mult from flush) * 2^3 * currently 1.5 = ~170, scaling, not including lusty cause idk if it procs before or after photograph

#

seems like the chips would eventually be more valuable if i scale constallation

obtuse patrol
#

Lusty will proc before photograph if it's to the left

#

If you're playing photochad you don't want mult out of hand like supernova since it wont get boosted

So the math is:
1 trigger from the card
1 trigger from the red seal
2 triggers from the mime

If i have 5 triggers on baron i get 5x4=20
If i had one blueprint on mime it would be 4x5=20
So it's equivalent

#

Or should be, that's my understanding on scoring

#

Wait if they are steel does that basically add another baron to the count?
In that case you are right yea mb

I would have 6x4=24
and not 5x5=25
