I think the black deck needs an extra dollar or two added at the start to get the ball rolling. I've tried to get it running about 6 times and I'm always getting killed in the first 3 antes. I'm not playing greedy either - if the game offers me anything that will help me immediately, I take it. It's so difficult to reach a point where its advantage even does anything and it's really late before that extra joker slot is better than a 4th hand.

Had a very good run with an all-face flush build thanks to a legendary joker that gave an extra 1x multiplier every time a face card was destroyed. Could have made it to ante 13 with a little more luck in the shop, only made it to 14 cards burned by the end of the run even taking every tarot and spectral pack opportunity presented as well as glass or purple stamp cards. Never seemed to get the right tarot cards and the glass only broke 3x out of 20 or so uses.

I would like there to be more space between the reroll and next round buttons, and also a "go back to shop" button. Accidentally walked into the Arm without spending my $100 bux.

Put your your xmultiplier jokers to the right so they're applied last, it will make a big difference in your score.

Kin posted:Am I right on thinking that to begin with I should just be buying as many new cards as possible to then unlock more features that make it easier to progress? Nah, the locked cards aren't strictly better or anything, in fact they're usually aimed at making very niche builds viable and thus make your overall pool of jokers worse.

hosed up a run with ante 13/14 potential by forgetting to move my blueprint off of my DNA and onto my holographic. RIP my 100 steel/gold stamp aces.

Double Bloodstone (1 out of 3 chance to X2 your multiplier every time a heart card is scored) is very strong, but also terrifying to run. Every hand has the potential to lap the goal a hundred fold or fail to get even a 10th of the way there.

Skipped to get a polychrome joker, it turns out to be Vampire (consumes enhancements to get xmultiplier) which would be great if I didn't have an eternal Driver's License (x3 if you have at least 16 enhanced cards). Not sure if I should still take it, like its clearly a lot stronger than the license and works with my current deck but it would effectively be taking 2 slots. (Balatro: Vampire would be great but I have an Eternal Driver's License)

I didn't have any issues the first few days playing this but it's crashed on me over 5 times today, anybody else having issues?

Got to ante 14 on the big money challenge with a red stamp/steel/Baron build. I really like the challenges that just let you play out the fantasy of starting with a joker or voucher that snowballs through a run.

Jalumibnkrayal posted:Am I right in that there is no real way to modify the deck with standard cards (non holo/etc) to benefit a strategy focused on straights? Like for flushes you can change suits, remove/add cards, etc. I had a run where I got a good lineup of straight based jokers and couldn't really see a reason to buy standard packs or tarots. You want to settle on a target range for your straight based on what other jokers you've got and delete cards that are outside that range. If you're going for low straights destroy face cards, if you're going for high straights then destroy low cards. If you don't have jokers to support a specific range then go for high straights as they give more chips. If you don't care at all about that then you should delete Aces, Kings, and 2s because they're harder to get a straight with as they can only go in one direction.

I would say the -1 ante is worth getting anytime that you're running a build that isn't complete enough to win the run or that scales with hands played. 3 hands after an extra ante to improve your poo poo should be stronger than 4 without it.

Just got a Perkeo (create a negative copy of a consumable in your inventory) off the first pack I opened, along with a uranus in the shop. This has gotta be the run I finally beat the gold stake. e: nope. somehow can't draw a loving 2 pair consistently even after deleting half the goddamn deck. sirtommygunn fucked around with this message at 14:43 on Mar 28, 2024 |

Finally won plasma deck gold stake off of a square/castle build that had both of them built up to 200+ chips. Also had Odd Todd, who has been a common factor in almost all of my deep runs with the plasma deck. It happened so often that I think you should be prioritizing making odd numbered cards over face cards in high stake plasma attempts. Almost lost against the boss that forces you to sell a joker because I had planned on selling my negative +1 discard joker, forgetting that it was permanent. A lot of close moments throughout as I had to kneecap my plays to feed the square and castle. Can't wait to go back to playing at a difficulty level that is actually fun. sirtommygunn fucked around with this message at 04:34 on Mar 29, 2024 |

Yes, when multiplying, balancing out the numbers will give you a higher number than if the numbers were extremely favored on one side. Multiplication is just adding a number to itself. If you were paid $100 and you could either get paid $100 again or change that payment to $101, you'd obviously take the second $100 right?

lunar detritus posted:That feels tremendously specific for a balance change I don't think it's for balance reasons. Odd Todd giving an even amount of chips just seemed a bit silly.

Alternatively just go all in on chips. If you get 1-2 that scale and can feed them or get Stuntman + a couple of foil jokers, you can clear ante 8 even on gold stake.

Yeah now you can get even angrier when it doesn't proc a single time in 3 flush hands, killing your run.

Straights are harder than others to get going but far from impossible. Their planet card is getting buffed in the next patch to make it more worth the trouble. Best way to improve your odds on them is to clip the ends of your number set (A 2 3 4 K Q) so more cards fall in the range you want.
