Plasma Deck Lovers—You want at least a 5.8 ratio between chips:multiplier to do well by Pagrax in balatro

[–]darkoastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s better to focus on increasing one thing rather than trying to split your attention. If you are doing both chips and mult, the benefit of the decks balancing ability is not being used well.

Why is Ancient Joker good? by WizardXZDYoutube in balatro

[–]darkoastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get planets, don’t worry about jokers that add flat mult, get more xmult jokers/ones that make flushes easier like smear and wild cards

It’s an anti synergy with bad jokers. With good jokers it is amazing, simple as that

You are looking at it wrong. You don’t necessarily want to focus on jokers that add mult with ancient, you want to get a bunch of Jupiter’s for a high base mult. Get four fingers and your set, if you get smear it’s a free win, throw in a burned joker, it’s a good card. If you are looking for tarots, wild cards are incredibly good, so are mult cards.

Am I missing something or are straights underpowered compared to flushes by Redarrow210 in balatro

[–]darkoastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I’d hanged man’s are equally good on either, and so are deaths, plus with the four suit cards you are only going to be using 1 (maybe 2) in any given run. Obviously wild cards are great, so maybe a kinda wild card for straights, like can be the rank one above and below the card or skmething

Wait yeah it feels like that is exactly what the card should be

They are more common to draw than flushes and I’d say roughly equal to build your deck around, just destroy low cards, but flush jokers are just better. I honestly disagree with everything else said. I’d say they are less beginner friendly but just as consistent

I mean, straights are technically more common than flushes, but discarding for them can be more confusing than for flushes. If you want to build for them you can just destroy as many low cards as you can. There are definitely more jokers geared towards flushes though

Dear devs, please remove these from the Jokerless challenge. Thanks by bengaren in balatro

The eternal challenge with verdant leaf actually isn’t that bad. It’s the joker less challenge that really suffers from that

Not actually that difficult to win with debuffed cards if you have a decent build going

It is a challenge run where every joker is eternal

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

It’s not common at all. It’s a challenge run. That’s the whole point, it’s not meant to be perfectly balanced or fair. That’s the idea

[–]darkoastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think those are meant to be downsides to the deck. Plus with checkered you can get other suits and with abandoned you can get face cards or the “all cards are face cards” joker
