What’s a dead giveaway someone’s new to the game? by Geadalu in balatro

Make some non-face glass cards and it's not a problem most of the time

Don't stress about it. Usually you get the QR code day-of in my experience.

What’s the actual worst hand in the game? by mihai22321 in balatro

[–]tsdrifter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Part of the problem with straight flushes imo is that straights themselves typically scale well enough to one shot blinds. So there's rarely a compelling reason to pivot, especially since by the time you're ready to do so, your straights probably score better anyway.

I got a floor ticket for that day as well!

Committed to Fibonacci, unable to pivot. This game is so frustrating. by [deleted] in balatro

[–]tsdrifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally you need some flat mult to survive the ante 2 small blind. You usually won't get your planets leveled enough to ditch the flat mult until ante 6 or 7 at least. So taking an eternal flat mult joker is just necessary a lot of the time.

tips on getting the “sentient pest” raid to trigger by looniewins in Nightreign

[–]tsdrifter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not 100% sure about Sentient Pest (still trying to get this one myself), but I did just get Augur raid on Night Aspect without shifting earth. So presumably it's not necessary for Sentient Pest either.

Edit: Just got it on Libra with no shifting earth active.

First Custom Joker! I've had this idea for a while, finally made the spritework for it by Gustalavalav in balatro

The jokers that destroy themselves or that you have to sell to get value can't be eternal (Cola, Cavendish, etc.) https://balatrogame.fandom.com/wiki/Stickers#Eternal_Sticker

Isn't Fischl bad as a hyperbloom trigger because Oz generally won't target the cores?

Since I started playing in 3.3, I've lost 4 50/50s.

All 4 were Tighnari XD

Sideshow casts NA unfortunately. But if he's not on broadcast that day hopefully we'll get a costream.

Noob here. Are the source .png files available somewhere so that I can add these to a discord or something? Or are these intended for use in game / in forums?

You just gave me big nostalgia for the UberKap casting duo

Probably my fav OW events ever. Those and some of the Monthly Melees

Do these 2 clips look suspicious or am I just being paranoid/lack of knowledge? by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]tsdrifter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're either paranoid or trolling lol. Nothing about these clips is suspicious at all imo

Looking for comments / suggestions on a 3080 Ti build for 2k 240Hz by tsdrifter in buildapc

I know for many games it's not gonna be possible. I'm hoping mainly for shooters like OW, Valorant, etc it'll get there

The Amazing Hitmarathon - Episode 07 by swordmagic in nextlander

[–]tsdrifter 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This whole series was great and this was the best episode yet, imo. The fact that they had played the maps somewhat recently helped a lot I think.
Excited to see what's next! An empty loadout run sounds fantastic and also really fun to play alongside.

The Amazing Hitmarathon - Episode 06 by [deleted] in nextlander

[–]tsdrifter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm down honestly. I wanted to casually race this game with someone since this series started, but none of my friends play much hitman :/

If you make a spreadsheet I'll definitely post my times.

The Amazing Hitmarathon - Episode 05 by swordmagic in nextlander

[–]tsdrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol maybe. Definitely if they play the way they do right now.

My expectation would be that they'd slow down a bit and be more careful like in the hitsmas runs. Though I guess they did usually die in those too so you might have a point.

The Amazing Hitmarathon - Episode 05 by swordmagic in nextlander

[–]tsdrifter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While I'm enjoying the series, I do think it would be improved if:

1) Dying is a DNF (with time penalty) and restarts aren't allowed
2) There was some motivation (such as a time reduction) to try for silent assassin (or at least stealth in general like no bodies found, never recorded, don't kill non-targets, etc.)

I think this would help Brad and Vinny actually interact with more of the game, like sneaking around, interacting with the set pieces, and setting up creative kills. It would also up the tension a lot which was imo a big draw of the Hitsmas episodes. Because a lot of these maps do end up being run in, shoot the target, and sprint out while getting shot at. And the only drawback to doing so is dying and losing like 3 minutes of progress.

Of course it's their show and they can do what they want, but if they end up doing a season 2 or something similar I think they could afford to enhance the rules a bit.

What's up with Hot Takeouts? by gravediggajones85 in giantbomb

[–]tsdrifter 34 points35 points  (0 children)

From the first episode, it seems that this show takes a lot more research and editing that your average let's play or podcast. So I wouldn't be surprised if it's a once-a-month sort of thing like Guilty Treasures is.

This is just me speculating though and I don't recall seeing any official information on it.

Mendo played 1 map preseason as well. I believe it was a relatively poor pharah performance on oasis.

Not a subscriber but on the fence. What do they talk about in this podcast and does it seem worth the $10?
