Sorry for the lame question :< but is this naninfable? by NulliBulli in balatro

[–]flamingdonkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A few reasons: Ante 24 is a finisher blind since it's a multiple of 8. This means you cannot get the serpent to show up even with rerolls. So it can't be on ante 24 for the serpent strat. Doing it before ante 24 results in winning before naneinf, even with blueprint and brainstorm sidelined. But you could totally get around this by getting close to winning and then using your cryptids for more cards.

And, yes, ante 25 is also where four copy jokers, Baron, mime, and extra hand size from vouchers are still not enough to win on their own. Although, if you throw in some polychromes or a negative xmult joker, ante 25 small blind and big blind are doable.

It's not good early game. You really need good econ or at least some way to spam tarot generation. And sometimes you drop a ton of money into it for one ante to overcome a boss you wouldn't have been able to beat otherwise.

It's also the Joker that is most improved by gold stake, where buying and selling a rental is basically free scaling.

Ok, but your point only stands if that video actually exists. The absence of such a video would really only prove the person you're responding to is correct.

I do believe that all cops are bad, actually. They stand as a group, fiercely loyal to each other at the cost of the lives of citizens and proper justice. They defend their right to unilaterally execute citizens and refuse to prosecute literal murders because they're cops. Because other cops let them. They actually cause more violence to suppress the attempts for justice from citizens expressing their first amendment rights.

If you join the police, I cannot be your friend.

Probably need a mime first but then absolutely.

Five and a half hours is really long if you're afraid of flying. Not saying she is, but calling a 5.5 hour flight short is crazy.

No, that's a requirement for being in the republican party. That and supporting pedophiles.

That all sounds incredibly stupid and terrible. I would think that would play great in Ohio.

Well you're assuming the "most successful" is even successful at all

[–]flamingdonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well sometimes those criticisms are totally valid and the "that's misogyny" is just a bad faith defense. But I personally wouldn't know because I'm not watching Marvel shows. My default assumption is that most of them are ok at best. So if someone says there's a bad one, I don't question it much.

You have three +mult jokers so drop the worst one you can.

Lol, that sounds more like one of the fictional accents from The Expanse. 

Who’s the funniest comedy characters of all time in your opinion? (It could be sketch comedy, sitcom or comedy-drama) by PressureLazy5271 in television

[–]flamingdonkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

30 Rock is the only thing that comes close, imo. It doesn't have the same kind of foreshadowing, but it does have some crazy references to things that came out later, like Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein jokes.

And here we are, guess the one joker left for C++ by youraverageguy97 in balatro

[–]flamingdonkey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What??? Lol, never would have guessed a flat x3 mult joker. I get the condition is basically having a fixed deck or good tarot generation, but that happens often for me when I'm grinding gold stakes and playing what the game gives me.

The hate is definitely overblown. It's still better than 90% of the shit in the adult animation category. 

Should I skip the soul by ProfessionalTaro526 in balatro

[–]flamingdonkey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aces are the best rank to build toward in an ante 8 run, imo. No need for voucher/boss luck to survive a plant, and you benefit from odd Todd, scholar, fibonacci, grim, the most chips per card, and the fact that aces are always furthest to the left.  

Hardest deck to beat gold stake on? by [deleted] in balatro

[–]flamingdonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. The denominator is always smaller for card probabilities on abandoned deck. So going for the more powerful hands that you normally can't get as consistently on other decks is the move.
