My first legendary joker gave me the run of my life. (Balatro)

this run was like 2 hours long with all the discussion, i chopped it down as much as possible while still leaving in important context. not sent to sub feeds as another YT experiment.

Im a simple man. I see Datto Balatro, I click. Entertainment is on sale.

[@Mdborders]

Amen brother

[@lucyarisato6850]

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

[@benzummo9193]

Quite literally thought the exact same thing when I saw this in my feed

[@Cookiemaster98_98]

Reroll for the boys

[@DJayPhresh]

Actually found this game through you. Ended up watching through NorthernLion's vids after I watched all your vids on it. Happy to see you keep playing, it's incredibly fun to watch.

[@katunu6030]

Same

[@pwines1423]

Same. This game is a gem

[@billy_werber]

I started watching Balatro through NL and was excited to hear him mentioned.

[@bencarlson4300]

Datto, then NL, then Mr Fruit

[@Black_Knight_7]

datto's face on that 2.3B was peak, suika datto has turned into balatro datto, my new favorite thing

[@Langston42]

Saw u playing this in the stream archive, didn’t really get all of it because I’ve never played poker and didn’t really understand the hands, bought the game, now I’m several games in & finally hit my first +8 ante and I’m hooked. P.S. I’m never allowing myself within 100ft of a casino after playing this game.

[@lordpumpkinhead265]

I don't think the Casino would let you pull up with a bunch of glass, steel, foil, and shiny cards.

[@nathanschaefer3217]

Love balatro! Been playing it myself ever since you first posted. Let me support this content first!

[@Trumpy_]

I feel like balatro goes from absolutely curb stomping every level to impossible in 4 seconds 😂

[@willdouglas7572]

Immediately saw this in suggested, so the YT experiment seems to have worked for me at least. Also, love the new channel.

[@lucyarisato6850]

Didn’t get a notification but saw it in my suggested. …I’m in, I guess

[@Colifin]

Weirdly it's at the top of my suggested, but not showing in my subscriptions.

[@CrossXhunteR]

@@Colifin He mentioned in the video's description that he purposefully set it up to not notify people, as an experiment.

[@foxtrotthe1]

Not sure what's up, but this didn't show up on either my notifications or my subscription feed, had to go out of my way to look for it, dont know if its just me or youtubes bein funny rn

[@CrossXhunteR]

[@Logan-tw7wv]

Saw the "it's out now" mention last ep and it's on Xbox, honestly thinkin' I'll be buying.

[@Subsistence69]

One of the best purchases Ive ever made tbh

[@br0therthr332]

There are a lot of busted builds to be made with Pareidolia. Once, I got the vampire joker along with the joker that makes played face cards gold. I was hoping and praying that I would get Pareidolia so that I would have an infinite recursion of buffs being eaten and gained back, (not only that, but money!) Keep an eye out for that combo. Get it in an early enough Ante, and I think it has potentially limitless scaling.

[@KaseAhmad22]

42:49 you missed trading card to discard one card every first hand. Could have gone to the moon

[@traviswilliams2348]

Extremely here for some more balatro and drg survivor content. More please!

[@Steve_evets]

i fell in love with this wierd game. not sure how you get the idea to make a poker rogue like but damn is it fun

[@xpatrstarx]

I got up to level 14 with a 5 of a kind build. Easily a few million per hand until I just couldn't keep up with inflation anymore. (Feels bad)

[@patacueja]

Just today I broke my first million chip hand, looking forward to break the billion with a hand similar to this one! Kinda crazy how WILD a single RNG drop can make a borderline useless set into god tier. It's a bit disheartening when I get very bad starts almost consistently, wonder what would be the better strat/moves to streamline the beginning into more solid runs!

[@farkler4785]

Watch Balatro University, he has great advice on the early game. Skipping blinds is almost always not worth esp in the early game

[@magbeth90]

"she doesn't even go here!" Me, to that goddamn six of clubs

[@lunarx710]

Datto Balatro is actually so much fun keep uploading !!!!!!

[@chrisleverne]

caught the tail end of the run on stream, happy to have it show on my Home page here on the YT. Amazing run that looked soooo doomed at the start. Keep up the great work. Love the content

[@LeGiraffee]

Lost my mind at 28:00 that's so unfortunate but so so funny

[@UrlKing]

I can't express how much I love watching Datto getting into roguelikes. Balatro is an amazing game, and has been eating my free time recently!

[@Guile_The_Exile]

Despite kinda getting lost after a certain point the "Wheel of For-" bit kept killing me. Your RNG is as awful as my existence on this planet ☠️☠️ holy shit lol

[@gurpgoober]

I love ROUGELIKES, I love GAMBLING, what is SKILL BASED GAMEPLAY WHEN YOU HAVE LUCK

[@Spacialvekter]

10:30 I never considered getting Canio with Paradoleia, that's CRACKED

[@bombshellblonde544]

Okay I'm assuming Datto is better at this than me because I've literally only beaten a run twice, so can someone PLEASE tell me why he didn't buy the Photograph from that shop that had the Spectral pack? He specifically said earlier in the run he wanted to sell the Chaos Joker for something, so there's gotta be a reason it was bad 💀

[@Blu_Moon_Owl]

31:03 Datto didn’t even notice the score he got lol

[@batmanslarynx]

I feel like the RNG is broken in this game. I think it's a lie and it cheats you. Also, I didn't realise there was xMult and +Mult, I just read them as the same thing so thanks for pointing that out. I probably lost a lot of runs because I didn't see that difference.

[@TacDonut]

This run was the ultimate troll! I can’t believe how much the game fought against the win

[@frostylight1232]

My first legendary was chicot the one that disables the boss blind abilities, then it was the blue one and then perkeo, perkeo was my favourite so far

[@sauceinmyface9302]

Your vibe in this stream is actually so northernlionpilled its actually kinda crazy how much it overlaps

[@rayquazaofthesky]

Made a deck similar to this but with vampire and the card that makes all faces gold. Was so much fun.

[@ItsNaberius]

This game is so addicting to watch. Might have to pick it up, but in the mean time hope there are more Balatro vids on the way

[@SeawardWind]

This vid never showed up in my sub box! Glad I found it though!

[@Lockerus]

I’ve been based and Balatropilled for the last week, this game is dope.

[@sammmaaayyyy]

You got me to watch northernlion play this and now I see all of his mannerisms in you as you play lol

[@CarlSmith-id8wj]

Holy shit I'm subscribed and this video is not in my sub feed. Literally going back and forth between the home page and sub tab right now and its on the home page but not in the sub page, even though it clearly says I'm subscribed. KZbin fucking sucks, how many channels lose thousands of views because of this shit Sorry for completely unrelated rant but this shit is wild

[@CrossXhunteR]

[@Goose683]

Entertainment is on sale when Datto posts a Balatro video

[@sadvathun]

Hey Datto, just wanted to let you know that this video wasn't put in my subscription feed for some reason. I couldn't tell you why, since I've seen all your other videos. I've heard other content creators complain about this but I've never had it happen to me before now

[@CrossXhunteR]

He mentioned in the video's description that he purposefully set it up to not notify people, as an experiment.

[@RoyaltonDrummer922]

You could probably explain this to me 10 times and I still wouldn’t get it

[@lordpumpkinhead265]

Make big number. There's the explanation.

[@oddwirt]

thanks your strat helped me win my first unseeded run

[@Cryptic_Orbit]

Absolutely baller vid Datto, I got to the end because that was a GRIPPING game, crazy how you luck turned in the end :/

[@redwolfjo3_647]

I'm scared i will never have a run this good

[@yorokobeshitbag4618]

Holy shit an entire hour of Belatro let’s GOOOOOOOOO

[@DakotaSG]

I was out of town for a few days helping someone move and all I could do was watch Datto and NL play Balatro while wishing I was playing it. This build was kinda crazy

[@ScarfBenderKorra]

Loved this balatro video!!! And NL is my other favorite streamer, so I am happy to see you guys both playing

[@geraltrivia9565]

Watching Datto get rid of all of his chip jokers was so rough to see. And the smiley one too it was seriously putting in work

[@GeassX]

Apparently Wheel of Fortune can only apply an edition to either your oldest or newest normal joker (when it does proc).

[@broputer]

This video is not showing in my sub feed or notifications, I only saw it in recommended for some reason.

I’m not even a fan of poker but you make this game so entertaining. Not to mention the amount of times you got shid on with that wheel card lmfao

[@okcoolmax]

Datto does balatro

[@rhys7047]

Been waiting for more Datto balatro content LETS GOOO

[@benseip911]

This video sold me on the game

[@texting7856]

you know what this video did make me interested in the game. good stuff Datto 👍

[@bosonl2277]

Yosh! I was hoping there would be another Balatro video

[@milesmcginnis7704]

Balatro do in fact be ballin

That was a crazy run

[@Sabre5106]

More Balatro please, I'm addicted to this game!
