Balatro

[timid belfry]

that's fucking rough anyways

you're only realistically ggonna survive to ante 25-26 without any luck

if you wanna fun one to try out I'll try 9PNJ39KE

[clever cipher]

that's so cooked 😭

[dire fractal]

My ranked high score is really funny
Because it’s 2e20, however there was no idol, no mime, no baron

[acoustic coral]

was it ancient poly red seal then?

with copies

[dire fractal]

Yep
4 hacks 2 ancients red seal poly

[acoustic coral]

that sounds p awesome

[dire fractal]

It was during pptt it was hilarious

My opp scored like 10 mil last ante

They tried to tempo me on ghost white lmfao

[acoustic coral]

lwk i need to warm up for that in playing vagabond later this week

[dire fractal]

Aren’t you like a 2 seed
You’ll be fineeeeee

[acoustic coral]

well im favored but that doesnt mean ill win

[dire fractal]

I’ll probs watch the 1-3 seed games are always fun to watch

[dire fractal]

You’ll be fineeeeee

[acoustic coral]

ill let you know when its scheduled

vaga is kinda sick so im guessing like sunday

surely vagabond will accept a league of legends 1v1

[acoustic coral]

did you see what happened in the bean vs klust set?

[dire fractal]

No I was doing my calc final lmfao

[acoustic coral]

ahh fair enough

[dire fractal]

What happened

[acoustic coral]

klust accidentally opened his discord overlay midset and saw the chat saying he had 5/6 jokers since its black

beans twitch chat reminded him of 5/6 as well tho

XD

[dire fractal]

LMFAO
wait but no that’s a dq right?

[acoustic coral]

yeah but since bean did sth similar i think a replay would be nice instead

[dire fractal]

Yeah
That rule is a bit too much imo
Wait wth bacon got 2-0’d
What happened

[acoustic coral]

idk they both did it tho bean played it off more

eitherway im not a to i dont wanna get too involved

and as for bacon i watched vod for his g1

at least the start

and he made some bad joker decisions and spectral decisions

so im assuming he lost to being down in seance and econ

didnt see g2 tho

idk how IDI highrolls so much

i lost to IDI in the bean tourney

otherwise id have a free bracket into finals

[dire fractal]

Bacon making bad decisions is a weird sentence

[acoustic coral]

he won because he lost 1st pvp and found vagabond 1 shop earlier which gave him a death so the poly queen we had showed up in the pack with the deja for him

and g2 was somehow even more unlucky for me

[acoustic coral]

he does it sometimes

i was chilling with him in vc the otherday and he played zodiac green and skipped 1st shop chad

[dire fractal]

Oh damn
I’m assuming this is with old comeback money?

[acoustic coral]

and took buffon pack instead and then kept fist over chad

[acoustic coral]

yeah

[dire fractal]

Buh

[acoustic coral]

that was really tilting since if i beat him its basically a free 1.5k

[dire fractal]

Yeah that sucks straight ass

[acoustic coral]

he got punished super hard by a gold seal showing up in the next standard pack

and early scoring being photograph

but even then you cant skip that chad on zodiac because you find so many more magicians on zodiac

also you can just retrigger mult cards

i act got a pos wr vs bacon

we are 8-7 rn

[dire fractal]

Chad is like a top 5 joker a lot of the time

[acoustic coral]

like 14 of those games were decided by rng since we play the same XD

[dire fractal]

Damn
The only top player I’ve played is block because he’s my captain
And I didn’t score within an order of magnitude of him after 1st PvP lmfao

[acoustic coral]

yeah its more that his thought process was its green fist is super powerful so it can just win him the 1st and maybe 2nd pvp and make blinds easier

and chad comes back because its common so he has more lives to econ

[dire fractal]

I think in a vacuum it goes bp, bs, vaga, mime, chad
Not necessarily in that order

[acoustic coral]

me and bacon practiced a decent bit for the bean tourney

[dire fractal]

I mean ig

[dire fractal]

Ah smart

[acoustic coral]

man we had a game where we were on same jokers same planet levels and same deck at ante 5

[dire fractal]

That’s insane

That’s actually completely insane

[acoustic coral]

the game was decided because i had death in last and then used hermit thinking hermit in last is good enough

but bacon was patient and just held hermit

next roll was fool

so he won the next 2 pvps

off 1 steel card

[dire fractal]

Damn that’s tragic

[acoustic coral]

theres a couple jokers id rather have over chad

if ticket was still a good joker id have chad in the top 5 tho

also not sure vagabond makes my top 5

i think id replace vaga with idol and chad with sock

or maybe replace vaga with rebate

its close

ive skipped a lot of vagabonds but ive skipped very few rebates

[dire fractal]

I just like the early game power Chad has
And vaga is vaga
He’s an insane value joker

[dire fractal]

That’s also a fair point

[acoustic coral]

also fun fact i almost missed vaga since jay wanted to draft me in the 1 seed

im so happy i feel into the late 2

[dire fractal]

this is easily my best singleplayer run ever

ante 8 and 16 4 copy bean bugs

[dire fractal]

annnnnd the run deleted itse;f

rip

[clever cipher]

I got naneinf without baron LOL

[acoustic coral]

Evil creepy seed

[dusk island]

another step on my slow journey towards all gold stake decks

[opal wadi]

woooo!!

ggs pepper

[dapper scarab]

i soooo wanna get back into balatro

but like
cba

since I got everything except c++ on switch and had hundreds of hours

and i just don't wanna regrind everything ughhh

[clever sentinel]

Just do it

It’s Balatro it’s not a competitive game

[dapper scarab]

tell that to all the people telling my dumbass to get on multiplayer

[clever sentinel]

Dog

[dapper scarab]

tldr no motivation

[last flame]

just cheat lol

my pc save i just gave myself everything minus stake completions but i have access to everything

[wooden pecan]

i mean what else is there to do in balatro /genq

if you unlock all, what else is there to do but like

play the game

[wooden pecan]

i don’t see the issue

[timid belfry]

just had a fucked up balatro game that was like

i didn't know what to do half the game

[main mountain]

Everything is a comp game in the big 26

[obtuse patrol]

Only if you make it that

[main mountain]

For most people those days are gone

Playing non-meta stuff is fun af

Enjoying the long ride

[wooden pecan]

i mean maybe if the people you interact with are in a niche speedrun discord for a competitive game yeah

most people are very casual enjoyers of games

[acoustic coral]

might be time to get on multiplayer

[acoustic coral]

It does that sometimes

[hallow hazel]

Spamming pairs and high card might be optimal but it bring the joy out of balatro

[timid tendon]

truly the green square joker experience

[dapper scarab]

grimbo my beloved

[timid tendon]

fortune teller in my heart

[dapper scarab]

any potential man enjoyers here

(baron for those of you who don't know ball)

[timid belfry]

Better then aincent

Mfer is stalking me like what's your fucking problem man

I feel traumatised by the existence of aincent

[acoustic coral]

I wish i found more of those i keep ending up on glass with retriggers

[dapper scarab]

i find him like every 3rd run but istg he never does anything

they call him potential man for a reason

[clever cipher]

[acoustic coral]

what a dry seed

best 5th joker was photograph

[potent surge]

got red deck gold stake

pants, chad, photo, smiley face and scary face

[acoustic coral]

This is a seed of all time

ante 3 dna as well

and a cert

[opal wadi]

[timid belfry]

@wooden pecan @dire fractal Would ya mind if you hop on a game with me real fast for BMP?

just hopped onto a game and I'm like really curious what the fuck my opponent did with the skips 😭

nvm I just walked into a fucking cheater game 😭

[wooden pecan]

into a game?

do you mean to test something?

[timid belfry]

nvm, I was just seeing what their scoring and their jokers were and what they skipped and there's like

zero way they scored what they did

I would've liked to see what they skipped for admittedly

[dire fractal]

I would but am abt 200 miles from my setup atm
On a bike weekend

[timid belfry]

fair

[dire fractal]

Lil bro you are not outscoring double bloodstone dusk with 2 page 1 commons and a dream
Did they just cheat the score?

[timid belfry]

out of all 6 antes

they skipped 6 times

they cheated somewhat
