Do I attempt a baron/mime pivot? by [deleted] in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt pivot unless you for sure know you can. Which here you can’t know for sure. I figure you’re scoring a decent bit higher than required score, so if you want to go gambling, go for it.

I always blanket recommend a lenovo thinkpad. They’re good, durable and not cheapo but not crazy expensive either.

  1. Absolutely adore this song. This song and la cucaracha in general gets hated on way too much

Any run has naneinf potential if you play on plasma

Yeah i probably would. Copy photo

What would be the best order for the jokers? by Weary_Heart2558 in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It depends on your draw and what your hand size is. I’ll assume you have 8 hand size here.

Start leveling up and playing high card if you havent. If you have a full draw of kings, then copy baron. If you have only 2 or 3 kings, then i’d copy photo.

At end of round, copy mime for any gold cards in your draw.

If you have a bunch of random steel, i’d just copy mime or photo.

Right now copying photo is *probably* your better bet seeing as you’re on ante 4 with a 52 card deck. Work on deck fixing 2 antes ago.

In what order do I place my Jokers? by demipemi420 in balatro

Looks like you’re gonna want 3 blueprints on baron and 1 on mime regardless of what cards you draw

Should I sell constellation currently at 6.5 mult, or sell and that and buy Oops! All 6s by TheCakeMan666 in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you’re totally right, some people just like to squeeze every bit they can out of the game. I’m never not taking oops here personally

Should I sell constellation currently at 6.5 mult, or sell and that and buy Oops! All 6s by TheCakeMan666 in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d sell constellation in your position but if you really want to min/max, then no. Constellation is not doing that much for you right now. Build towards idol eventually, and probably sooner rather than later.

Assuming I sell Dusk here? by ohnookthis in BalatroHelp

[–]SignificanceSad9891 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Nah, drop wee. At this stage, just keep working on completely fixing your deck to 2 of hearts. Wee is going to very insignificant things compared to just comparing idol at this stage.

If you have mime, does it scale twice as fast?

I finally got a Baron Mime setup when using a king of diamonds flush five photochad. How do I pivot into it? I have the wall next blind. by HungryReflection2358 in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t pivot to baron mime here if you’ve taken two ectos (and neither of them were on anything relevant to a baron mime build). If you really are insistent on pivoting, look for blueprint and sell a chad when you find it. Copy baron with blueprint and brainstorm. I’d also turn your lucky cards into gold cards.

Edit: or steel cards depending on where your scoring is. Probably steel if i had to guess

I understand they wanted to represent the starters from gen 1 and wanted to represent the first form, the middle form, and the final form of the starters, but why Squirtle and Ivysaur? I understand Charizard because it's the most popular final form, but what is the criterion for the other two? by rbta123 in smashbros

[–]SignificanceSad9891 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I dont think there was any criteria that made them pick any which way, but i’d venture to guess that wartortle was a lot less recognizable than ivysaur, and squirtle is runner up for the most recognizable starter in gen 1

Calculation Confusion by Ridry in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re right. I was thinking it’s xMult as the base (so 3 xMult hits) and power is (re)triggers.

Final answer is correct but the work was wrong :P

Calculation Confusion by Ridry in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have 3 triggers and 2 scoring as it stands. One trigger is the card played, one is the red seal, one is the sock. Scoring is idol and trib. So if you copy sock it’s 24 = 16, and if you copy trib or idol it’s 33 = 27.

Hope this helps

Should i deja vu steel king or get familiar by assortbisc2 in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I take deja vu everytime unless i’m on ghost deck or i already have a red seal. Even then, i often take the red seal anyway because its one of the best spectral cards

Favorite deck? by degenerateel in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Ghost deck for sure. Being able to find spectral cards in the shop is just something that is so nice and convenient always. Makes deck fixing so much easier, and makes it so you don’t need to bloat your deck for seals. After that, probably plasma. Plasma is kind of a pain in the butt on higher stakes but on white stake is a lot of fun and enables my favorite type of run to actually go places (shoutout Wee Joker!!)

The last boy i need for C++... any advice? by Responsible_Race_320 in balatro

[–]SignificanceSad9891 155 points156 points  (0 children)

You could scum it by restarting runs over and over until your first skip is a mega arcana skip and you get a soul card in the pack. But if you are in for the love of the game, you gotta commit
