I also don't really get the supernova hate but I default to high card a lot where it is pretty busted and strictly better than green or the bus I think? Ive blown enough runs picking it up trying to focus on another hand to get why people think it's bad though

My first (and so far only) Gold stake win was with a Joker. My build was lame but it worked: Abandoned Deck Seltzer, Bloodstone, Oops! All Sixes (Perishable, ran out on my final hand), Even Steven, and Joker which was foil. I think maybe one or more of those cards was also polychrome... but basically I was able to focus enough on hearts and even cards, along with all of the cards being triggered to get high enough mult to win - 5 heart flush with retriggering and bloodstone = 57x mult. With my mult taken care of, the foil on Joker was really valuable and I didn't come across a better card for chips. I also accidentally got the "win in 12 rounds or less" because I knew one of my key jokers was perishable so I was skipping everything I could.

Joker idea of the day Neighbourly joker (uncommon $6) +5 mult when scoring a card consecutive with last scoring card Obviously a straight is exactly in its wheelhouse, but it's got slightly more utility than that. Full house 10s over 9s can also trigger it four times if you arrange the hand right, plenty of other hands can get one or two triggers off it. And it's not even so unbalanced to be strictly better than Crazy Joker on a straight; if you have some other reason (e.g. hanging chad, glass and multed cards) to want to play an irregular order for the hand you might have to trade off how many consecutive pairs you can form. Not gonna get you to e, but a mid range utility joker with a bit more going on than vanilla mult-on-hand-type.

Getting 80 cards in the deck is a lot harder than it looks because it apparently just runs out of them forever after 70 14 double tags, no mega pack (or negatives lol, anaglyph is a land of contrasts). Playing card voucher, still useless, saw 5 through ante 13, rolling over 100 times, no merchant vouchers to impact it lol

I'm going to go with Merry Andy for worst joker. A negative Showman or The Idol might be a boost (a negative Showman gave me two Square Jokers that I went wild with) if you've got a full slate of jokers and need five discards you're doing something wrong and synergies with Banner/Delayed Gratification aren't worth multi-card combos.Tonetta posted:it's supernova. supernova's the worst. you will never, ever get a meaningful amount of multi out of it before the blinds scale well beyond its' reach. all the other jokers that require you to waste hands or discards to take advantage of them have effects that persist beyond their sale. it costs 3 more monies than just a flat 4 multi joker. it's a total noob trap joker Speaking as someone who has 100%ed Balatro, clown rear end take.

Merry Andy's firmly Okay - if you're fishing for something specific it's fine. If you're not it's not. I'd take it over superposition

Gets relatively easy with any 2 of those, plus standard packs and the voucher etc. I wasn't even specifically trying for it when I got it, I was just creating as many 2s as possible for my Wee Joker and got it by accident.

That was a weird one. This was even weirder, lol. Perkeo duplicated money tarots and I spent all the money on re-rolls to juice flash card. Meanwhile, Stuntman was canceled out by the Painted Deck intrinsic, so it was just a free 250 (+50 from foil) chips. This has been every single blind. This is why I hate Superposition.

finally beat Jokerless after about 2 weeks of trying. so many heart breaking runs on the way there...lots of hitting either The Wall or Flint on Ante 8. the winning run was really fortunate because it gave me an Observatory voucher which I'd never gotten up to that point in my 160+ hours of playing and was much needed to beat the ante 8 wall also it was pretty much a rule during that 2 week run that every single glass card would break on first use Whistling Asshole fucked around with this message at 11:28 on May 18, 2024 |

Hey if you're doing Ancient Joker + Photograph, does it make more sense to have the face card as early as possible or as late as possible?

Oh right I forgot about retrigger effects. You definitely want that bad boy to go off as many times as possible
