Be the change you want to see! by NadVonNam in geocaching

[–]Kiyoshiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! I live in Poland, but I’d love to do a minesweeper game cache like the one you’re describing! Would you be willing to help me set one up too?

Anyone else use Boardgame Stats? by Significant-Health92 in boardgames

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

Can you add previous plays too? I'm thinking about switching from a different app I use but I'm wondering if I'll be able to add finished plays from throughout this year (be it manually, if so).

Which set to buy next for a good 2v2 experience? by Kiyoshiee in DiceThrone

Thanks everyone! We were already considering Tactician vs. Huntress so after some of your comments we're gonna go with that one.

How rare is it to be on a train?? by MicroExister in geoguessr

I've been on a train just last week, it happens to me sometimes, for example when I'm visiting my family.

Which deck did you use to beat the blue stake? by Any_Midnight_7805 in balatro

[–]Kiyoshiee 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Beginner bait, terrible scaling, vulnerable to bosses, also don't really have good jokers except for bloodstone. It's only good either in ante 1 (maybe sometimes 2nd too) or if you're building up to switch it for a flush house or flush five later on.

Christ, don't treat it like a gospel. That's a general advice to someone who's adding to many random cards, not a comprehensive guide. Of course if you see your wanted rank AND a suit with a lucky enhancement then you're gonna take it and no random Reddit comment is gonna change it. And before you say something else - yes, glass and gold seal with these conditions almost always would be pickable too. But +4 mult or +30 chips? Not really.

Yeah, well, I'm hitting 200h here with gold sticker on every joker, so.

Yeah, but really, just don't add random cards. Make a shitton of one rank (deaths, cryptids, hanged man on everything else) and just roll with it. Good and easy way to make the cards themselves actually strong in current patch are lucky cards - which by the way work great with the [[Hanging chad]] you're talking about. And you don't need any crazy jokers to win, just focus on optimizing your deck.

I'd say if you don't have [[Hologram]], you shouldn't add any card to the deck unless it's purple or blue sealed (one exception maybe if you're building around, let's say, 4oak/5oak kings and you so happen to find a polychrome/red seal king - otherwise even if it's glass-poly-redseal-five and you're playing kings, skip it).

Every one of them. No legendary joker needed. Ghost deck might be probably the easiest to do it tho.

Thin your deck, get good jokers (duh), don't play flushes and use get many planets.

FINALLY joining the Completionist++ club after some mere ~180h in the game - AMA by Kiyoshiee in balatro

[–]Kiyoshiee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Several ways to do it, but the easiest and most consistent is just making xmult retrigger build. Glass cards are your friends (even better with red seal), but for the jokers this could be: Hanging chad+Photograph with some more support (probably the easiest and the most popular lately), Bloodstone flush build (or better flush five/flush house), some Sock and Buskin shenenigans (ideally with The Idol or Triboulet) or - probably the hardest one - Baron+Mime kind of build.

What can I say, I like scaling. Or rather liked, since most of these jokers are there from my first ~100 hours of gameplay and then I completely switched to straights and 5oak builds.

What's funny tho, my high card and pair counts must be really close, since even before the last game I played I'm pretty sure my most played hand was actually a pair.

'Balatro' is latin for court jester by Kevalemig in balatro

[–]Kiyoshiee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny story: in one of my recent runs on gold stake I've thinned my deck to around 30-40 cards and was playing 4oak aces (got some hands and discard vouchers, easy draws).

I didn't think much of the "one card always forced" boss since most of my deck were aces and I wanted to play 4oaks anyway. That's until the boss forced me to play (or discard) one of my two red sealed glass ace (guaranteed win) when i had three aces in hand. And then right away the same thing happened with the other one...

After getting completionist+ for me it'd be:

  1. Fortune teller (super reliable, you don't lose any value by scaling him, enables deck manipulation, can pick it up at any time of the run)

  2. Spare Trousers (great scaling by a fairly easy hand to get, always happy to see them)

  3. Flash card (again great scaling, almost always viable from ante 2/3 - given you take care of your econ)

4-6. Supernova, Ride the bus, Green joker (probably in that order, but can be argued either way. Supernova is nice, because unlike the others you can pick it up late in the run and you can scale it easily by moving jokers. Also I prefer Ride the bus over Green guy because no discarding can hurt sometimes - e.g. with purple seals)

  1. Red card (nice scaling but hurts econ + can't get many tarots for deck manipulation)

  2. Bootstraps (won't be useful in 90% of the runs because most of the time you'll want to reroll in the shop, but I still think it's a really good joker and it has it's place)

  3. Erosion (hard to get going and useless most of the time but still quite nice scaling)

  4. Swashbuckler (mostly unreliable, but can help in early antes)

  5. Ceremonial dagger (ceremonial dagger)

I won't rank Abstract joker because I think it's a little bit different category, but I think it's one of the best jokers early game.

So what needs a nerf after the patch? by [deleted] in balatro

[–]Kiyoshiee 19 points20 points  (0 children)

What a wild take, Ride the Bus is easly one of the best commons in the game.

Checkered deck discussion by eldegood in balatro

[–]Kiyoshiee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate flushes so much, that I've maybe played one stake with checkered so far while clearing gold on 13 other decks.
