No shot he just did that in literally the first minute

😭😭

[@n00dle_king]

Gotta bait that type A engagement in the comments.

[@RobotnikPlngas]

He is literally the guy from the ads.

[@nicolasvidal92]

Type A speedrun

[@blackapple197]

He also ignored lot of times mult jokers when he had two flat mult jokers. Literally any x2 is better than a flat mult jokers at that point.

Bro doesn't know that he can't have a "Jokerless" run, because HE IS, the Joker.

[@LoZfan03]

every time his brain goes "I'm discarding one 8 for purple seal, so I should discard all of them" no matter how many there are in his deck and how much he wants to play an even carded full house, I descend one step farther into type A hell

[@mechris8428]

truly a BLESSED video start

I'm a balatro guy, of course I skipped the first 20 minutes so that I can be the first to backseat in the second half

[@BreadlessRocks]

Skip the first 20 min? Just skip the first 20 sec and backseat that first joker 💀

[@RobotnikPlngas]

0:50 is all it takes bro

45:52 egg inexplicably plays steel 7 instead of foil 7 and misses out on incredibly valuable mime'd double 1.5x steel card boost from steel 7 which could have easily cleared blind after staring for 20 seconds at his hand

[@ShneirtsNip]

This is the shit that turns me into a type A chatter

[@nikodem2701]

there was also multiple times where he played inferior full house with his steels instead of fishing for the flush house with ceres in his hand and keeping all of his red steels and easily beating the 12th big blind eeeasy

[@nikodem2701]

i love mr egg but boy oh boy

[@CzechThisOutToday]

He still beat the blind

[@The_Pupil]

I was looking for this comment. Chat never disappoints!

[@LoZfan03]

if I had a dollar for every time NL tried to sell an eternal joker, I wouldn't need any econ jokers ever again

[@xToTaLBoReDoMx]

41:49 I don't want to ride the A train no more, he teased that moon play down to the last second, all he had to do was play the moon, then flush house and I would've achieved full release

[@gabriel63680]

I almost had a damn stroke watching him edge with that moon card in hand.

[@multiperson86]

Holding onto flat mult so you can add +82 multi to 4000+ multi by the time steel cards are done triggering on every video that goes this distance is what turned me into a type A chatter.

[@DiabloTraeluz]

no you don't understand the smiley face for the abandoned deck at the beginning is what the professionals refer to as "Long Term Investments"

[@evertime123]

His plans measure in centuries

[@plusonedex]

the first minute of this video is why i keep coming back, thank you egg lord

[@TheBroodingRogue]

NL I think you often forget Balatro order of operations… when you’re trying to pump steel cards, getting mult before steel cards trigger is more important than adding flat mult/xmult after steel cards trigger, e.g. polychrome walkie talkie

[@jakob9942]

Adding Xmult after is the same as before. Chatter needs to learn math

[@TheBroodingRogue]

@@jakob9942 no it is not. Steel cards only apply xmult to hand mult + played mult (walkie talkie). Flat mult after steel cards trigger does not receive steel card bonuses.

[@jakob9942]

@@TheBroodingRogue If you have no + mult it doesn't matter. 2x3 = 3x2

28:22 cant believe he didn't even consider taking the 3 of a kind joker lol

[@panaleksander13]

what an amazing first run

[@fabiangrupp2052]

How does he still not see that jokers like even steven are so much more valuable with steel cards because the mult gets applied beforehand. Like how the whole run fell apart as soon as he sold even steven lol

[@cheng8841]

RIGHT

[@wavedash-]

2 flat mult jokers in a steel card build, that's my egg

[@kajetanbiay9745]

No way bro didn't restart recording after the first minute

[@measuringband]

i cant believe this guy just got done playing five of a kind 10 and decides that a hologram that gives 1.5 mult is better than polychrome 10 4 call me a type a all you want that was a straight up throw for engagement

[@measuringband]

[@swakner]

Absolutely love how he passes on playing a full house to try to draw a 4 of a kind where supernova would give 27 mult instead of 2

[@SuperGamerNinja74]

You're giving us a bad name brother! By the time supernova is triggering he has 3000 mult, 20 mult is pennies AND he lived!!

[@impulsecdog4979]

What I love about NL is that he constantly fucks up but doesn’t delete the footage.

[@googlepoodle5814]

Wow I’m early! Last time I was this early was in June 5th, 1998. It was a warm Friday afternoon. I stepped into the old watering hole at around 5pm. Sharp. That was when I saw him. There was an air about that that was undeniably charming. Even though he was surrounded by people, we locked eyes. He made his way across the bar and we had a conversation. I can’t remember the exact details of what was said, but he asked me a question that changed me life. He asked, “Do you want to go to Sawcon?”

NL It made me feel way less dumb when the god of Balatro himself also took a face card joker as his first joker on abandoned deck … i also did this last night

[@maestromarat6195]

take a shot everytime NL misses a flush house

[@imnashes]

I hate to be a type A but I think this is coming from a good place. + mult jokers are basically useless on a good run like this. Once you have a high level hand, steel cards, glass, etc. the + mult is just a drop in the bucket. Example in this video being 42:20 where by the time tarot/flash add their combined like 100 mult, the hand is already at about 2000 mult. I doubt just removing those would've brought this run to e looking at his later shops, but its something thats important to be aware of when trying endless runs.

[@lunarshining7964]

A good point, and made respectfully. There's hope for the Type A's yet

[@gingerfry7785]

We’re balatro guys of course we’re commenting on NL’s strats within 5 minutes of the video being posted

[@alexishitcher9712]

I’m usually a type b chatter through and through, but it hurt how little he utilized the moon cards and could’ve easily made a shit ton of flush houses and could’ve hit mama Liz’s e oil

59:37 Me when I randomly guess a time in the video to try to make a low-effort joke about and get it completely wrong

[@mschuhler]

making actual progress in ante 12 is nothing to be mad at at the end of the day, but im still gonna say that the dozen or so different opportunities for a flush house given up for like an extra planet card really got me good

[@littlej211]

Man finishes in less than one minute; Asked to leave

[@Suenmk3]

When he fixed the audio it felt like shower water finally popping out of my ears

[@pipdev8636]

Hi NL, idk if u read comments but when you get to ante 12 and are using steel cards, flat mult jokers are worthless. you are reaching 2k mult from steel cards and then added 70 mult. thats a 1.03x mult joker. At this point a joker giving 30 chips will be giving more score 👍

[@dragonmonitor]

+1 cards like even steven add mult before your steel cards trigger and that’s why they give less mult. they’re really good!

[@blackapple197]

For deep endless, retrigger > times multiplier >>>>> chip adder >>>>>>>>>> flat mult. Foil is actually better than holographic. I had a run yesterday that my 17.5x Hologram is literally my worst joker lol.

[@JaaaackP]

4:52 first mention of endless potential. Amazing, ante 2 brilliance

[@nicknelson1975]

I know I'm a couple months behind. But hopefully he figures out that steels reward smaller played hands. Full House is a bit tough to work with unless you have insane hand size.

[@cyanthrope]

that was a genuinely hilarious opening play, gg

[@Rumcake256]

that start was really funny. I made the same mistake in my head lol

[@RobotnikPlngas]

No one: The guy from the ads: 0:50

[@tatapnhob]

he pumps flush house to never actually play a single flush house... then purchases a supernova AND PLAYS FOUR OF A KINDS FOR A WHILE????? I swear to god I'm a B type viewer

At risk of sounding like a Belatro simpleton, that was still great playing regardless of the actual scores.

[@PlaysEverything]

Who hid the other challenges?

[@superpotatogod]

It's insane how you still don't realise that flat mult jokers completely fall off when you're steel maxing, ah yes that +50 mult will make such a big difference to your 13,000 mult.
