Best Joker Combos: Top Joker Synergies & Pairings

[@ZainoTVLive]

What is your favorite Joker pairing at the moment? Forgot to include the ace build footage, you can find a short of that here: kzbin.infoYe-YRHppCRQ?si=oTYPC1ylvyE8lBe8

[@JohnTheodore]

Not a joker pairing, but a joker + voucher synergy that goes nuts is Perkeo + Observatory

[@Sidnv]

If you allow 3 joker setups then Paredolia + Midas Mask + Vampire is so much fun. You do need some help surviving till this setup gets going, but being able to scale vampire into x20 is something else. You did mention Midas + Vampire but the triple combo is even better. In the demo, all of the super high scores came off DNA + Scholar + Splash + Blueprint (off a polychrome glass ace ideally). DNA in general just has some insane combos with other stuff.

I've started to enjoy the value of hanging chad plus a glass card, plus a lot of steels held in hand. I don't like turning my whole deck into glass unless I can generate glass, but high card plus lots of steels plus hanging chad plus a single glass card is amazing. And it works well when I have steels with blue seals so I can get 2-3 planet cards every time I win a round, which I will slowly replace with red seals using death once the value of planets drops off around level 50 high card or so. You said joker pairing, so... this with steel joker. Since most of your value comes from the first card played, hanging chad works great with high card and steel. It can work with bigger hands too, but wow. High card be potent.

New in the game...totally addicted...xd....I used the ceremonial dagger and the Joker that gives 2 free Jokers every blind...so the dagger mult did go skyhigh like that. The more I play, the deeper it goes...looooooove it

[@akaneshinohara5484]

For me was Any Joker that reduce hand size like double stunman+blackboard,i just realise that blackboard still trigger even when there no spade card on hand

[@ZainoTVLive]

You need to have at least 1 card and they all have to be either clubs or spades. I believe if you have no cards it does not trigger. Also stone cards count as not clubs or spades.

[@carlthe1nonly960]

@ZainoTVLive Did you convert spades into stone cards when you tested it. I know stone card remember what card they were if they are converted back with like an empress.

[@ZainoTVLive]

@@carlthe1nonly960 I believe I did! But Ill try and check this again.

[@CapinKev]

It's simple, but I adore Hanging Chad and Photograph. They're easy to get early, and make winning a run so straightforward if you just start your hands with enhanced face cards.

[@audunhoem5773]

My first win on purple stake I got madness and eternal stencil in the same shop. That was fun.

[@ZainoTVLive]

That sounds like a dream combo, don't have to do too much after that.

[@Nikowo1610]

​@@ZainoTVLiveThat's the fun part! It's so relaxing just going through every blind, playing a hand or two, and just opening some packs

[@terrydactyl2077]

Your vids helped me become able to play this game half decently! (Though I still struggle). But I can win some games! And last night I got a score of 3.928e17! Never been able to play a deck builder before this. You probably don't have time and that's fine. But just in case I wonder if you would have rearranged my jokers in a different order to gain even higher points? Playing five of a kind Queens. Mostly they had bonus enhancements and steel. Jokers were from left to right: [nothing] Blueprint (copy the joker to the right)> [foil] Sock and Buskin (retrigger all played face cards) > [negative] Jolly Joker (+8 mult if hand contains a pair) > [polychrome] Brainstorm ( Copy left most Joker) > [hologram] Triboulet (played kings and queens get x2 when scored) > [foil] Dusk (retrigger all played cards in the last hand of a round) I was thinking maybe the polychrome brainstorm should have been after the legendary for its 1.5 X mult and the legendary having +10 mult from its hologram. Because am I correct in assuming X mult should always go after all the +mults to get the highest possible score? Other than that I considered my arrangement to be the strongest because although Triboulet gives me x2 mult per each queen played, retriggering each queen would be better right? Especially with blueprint AND brainstorm copying that affect.

[@ZainoTVLive]

Because you have Dusk and Sock and Buskin, the best case would be to Blueprint Triboulet and Brainstorm that blueprint. This way you get three triggers of *2*2*2 (or *8 Mult) versus 5 triggers of *2 mult. Mathmatically this way you get (2*2*2)^3, simplified as (*8)^3 or (*2)^9. What you currently have is x2 triggering 5 times per queen or (*2)^5. The difference is x512 Mult versus x32 Mult per king or queen. I'm glad the videos are helping!

[@terrydactyl2077]

@@ZainoTVLive thanks mate! Ok so I missed out on an even crazy higher score then! Haha

[@belodie]

Marble Joker + Stone Joker + Hologram is a great combo imo, especially if you combo that with levelled up High Cards and some flat mult such as Constellation or Ride The Bus.

[@Levi-hs6mg]

Paradolia and midas touch is the funnest combo in the game imo its way more fun than faceless and paradolia

[@Tv6O6O]

A credit card with the vagabond and campfire makes it much better

[@zrothesensei6981]

I tried to click the jokers for more info 😂

[@NbleSavage]

Hell yes! Would love a 'sets' video!

[@briansmith8898]

Favorite joker pairing: Vagabond and Fortune teller. A simple one, but you get lots of +mult, and also get the benefits of the tarot cards, almost all of which are useful. You'll eventually get out of vagabond with this combo, but you will have a great opportunity to do lots of deck enhancement with the tarot cards.

[@ZainoTVLive]

I love it as well!

[@oolimry9713]

smeared joker + seeing double makes any black flush X2, and any spade or club joker like arrowhead or onyx agate applies for each black card played

[@ZainoTVLive]

love this combo

[@zakanyimen]

Wheel of fortune and nope

[@ZainoTVLive]

+2

[@markmichael6652]

1/4 my ass

[@ZykoMike]

I’ve only won 2 runs so far and my combo is smeared joker then just running up my Jupiter count. Had my flushes to level 20 or so… good times.

[@JohnTheodore]

Not sure if it was mentioned, but Campfire pairs well with any joker that generates cards that you can sell

[@ZainoTVLive]

100%!

[@RealCrazyDiamond]

Your videos are great, but can you please show us the cards you're talking about when you talk about them? Some of us don't have them all memorized yet.

[@mralexi7413]

Insane vidéo my guy

[@ZainoTVLive]

Thanks for the support!

[@carlthe1nonly960]

Bloodstone and Oops All Sixes is a goated combo.

[@ZainoTVLive]

I wanted to put this on, but haven't gotten it yet!

[@kredenckitchencupboard4025]

I want to plat Balatro, I am in for a rude awakening, I think. :D Thanks for the combos, I'll keep an eye out during my next play. :D

[@BelenosBear]

Egg + Swashbuckler is pretty much my signature move

[@ZainoTVLive]

We call it the BelenosBear in my chat

[@waynehynes9430]

Watched this video today. Couple hours later I snagged Tribuoulet & Sock And Buskin combo. Oh man! I kept feeling like I was cheating. The last boss ante needed 100K to win. I closed it out with nearly 10 million on one hand, kings full of queens; ha ha! It was my 3rd win with this game (I'm a new player).

[@ZainoTVLive]

That's awesome, Trib/Sock is one of two most OP combos.

[@JohnTheodore]

First!
