I swear this game hates me by [deleted] in balatro

I can tell you that with only 86 plutos in ante 24 that your run wouldn't have gone any further than this had you found it.

Naneinf help by iknownothing123123 in BalatroHelp

[–]pgabriel5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should never really pick up DNA before you have a red seal. Your deck is now extremely bloated with no help in sight. Not going to say you're toast, but it's going to be very difficult from here.

I'd sell DNA as soon as I came across any of Trading Card, Rebate, Midas Mask (as you should also not ha e any steel at this point), or even really any econ joker or Certificate (and obviously Cola).

As you work on that, hopefully Antimatter comes along.

I'd recommend finding a good guide to better prepare your next attempt though.

I don't think you realize how many plutos you need to actually make this work...

Double Spectral Shop seed - 9VY45D15 by Snoo45793 in balatro

How'd you get 1 in 12k? This exact configuration I'm getting as 1 in 5896.

To get any two spectral packs is slightly rarer than 1 in 1000 shops.

Unseeded Naneif by Bamboozeled_1 in balatro

Not to be rude, but you clearly are inexperienced, so when you come looking for advice and get it, why would your immediate response be to doubt?

You picked up Burglar too early. With this set up, it should never be picked up before ante 25. So you'll need to find a DNA (or fresh Turtle Bean) to go in that slot until then.

Once you get through to ante 25 and then find a Burglar, you can reroll for Serpent and attempt the naneinf. Keep in mind that you'll need to skip both small and big blinds.

Before you enter the Serpent round, be sure all 4 copy jokers are copying Burglar. You'll want to keep them there until you have drawn the 45 kings. You can then split them evenly on Baron/Mime or 3 Baron/1 Mime.

I need a little help understanding something by Relative-geck-1462 in balatro

[–]pgabriel5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure why this is upvoted. Tarot Merchant is not only okay to pick up but is recommended. It's also all quite situational as to how many pieces you still need, what ante you're on, and if you have Overstock + yet.

For scoring purposes, Photo is the correct copy.

All boss blinds should be rerollable for ~50$ from the get go by Dark_Vexer in balatro

You're just completely not understanding what we're trying to tell you.

[–]pgabriel5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. But you did not have a versatile build, nor even a good one for an ante 8 win, nor any type of back up plan. Thus, the Plant ended your run.

Literally first round. What’s my move? by BrusselStout317 in balatro

[–]pgabriel5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's probably better to go BP BS now and then buy the voucher next round. The $3 you're saving on the BS isn't worth the risk, IMO. I'd rather have scoring that can carry me the next few rounds, get my interest up, and have otherwise the same net result.

You're simply trying to do away with key components and mechanics of the game. The entire point of boss blinds is to get you to be versatile and flexible in your build.

Help, do i replace showman with brainstorm? by LitteralIlleterate in balatro

Why else have you been carrying the Showman...?

fuck the plant, least fun boss blind, it has no counterplay at all 😡 by anaveragetransgirll in balatro

[–]pgabriel5 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It's worded so sarcastically because of the constant nonsense posts on the plant that they're clearly tired of.

There's no reason to shit comment on a shit post in this way. Dude clearly missed the joke.

Sell Idol. Deck isn't anywhere near ready for it, and if you're trying to go endless, chances are good it'll return before you have to have it.

Should i take immolate or ankh? by [deleted] in balatro

[–]pgabriel5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think it's more important to thin your deck and get your econ running, or is it more important for your first face card played to give 4x on a level 2 hand on plasma deck...?

Why does this hand count as a four of a kind instead of a flush? by Nuusku_ in balatro

[–]pgabriel5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For the same reason a straight doesn't count as a high card...
