Wish he realized a full abstract joker was the same as one increment of runner.

[@disguisedcat1750]

But if he had mult multer though It usually happens at ante 10 in plasma when your mult overshoots chips by mult multing so your type A is safe

[@hysterheister0947]

Wish he realized blue joker is 5x that

[@genieinthepot2455]

@@disguisedcat1750Ante 8 is the goal, not ante 10. Im not saying that mult is useless on plasma but even if he xmult, it's still not better than runner.

[@ScholarZero]

For sure, my play would have been to sell out so that invisible hit runner, take that polluted shortcut to get the twins stacked. I guess I will keep watching to see if he finds success.

[@RobotnikPlngas]

when you sell invisible joker, does it copy the joker with the progress it has so far? Or just 0?

[@Obermelee]

copying abstract instead of selling it to make sure he copies runner is making me a type a chatter

[@TheThinkingOtterr]

I love when he gets a chance again to copy runner with Ankh to replace all the non-chip jokers

[@LilyFlask]

i love hearing him talk about how he FINALLY understands that the plasma deck relies on chip jokers only for him to go all in on mult jokers every single run. it makes me laugh every time

[@Chee7sAEpp]

17 mult on fortune teller vs 100 chips on blue joker.... classic NL

[@ui264]

I'll be talking to My therapist about this..... again.

[@Tw0shedz08]

So you mean to say 8.5 chips and 8.5 mult from Fortune Teller Or 50 chips and 50 mult from Blue Joker

[@btctx3730]

I just want NL to realize at some point that 50 x 50 (blue joker) is more than 7.5 x 7.5 (fortune teller)

[@VIRGiiiG]

At this point I'm convinced he's doing it for the engagement in the comment section.

[@alexzephyris1455]

People in the last plasma deck video still talking about mult and timestamping points in the run where he has 6.7x * 15x multi and I'm like, bro of course it's insane, even if you had a base 1, you get 6 x 15 = 90, of course at that point you ignore chip scaling. But you only need to be ante 8 which is 400k.

[@brianzanfelice9747]

He is going to win gold stake without knowing how the deck works, I just can't believe it

[@Ejay669]

[@colb5024]

All I'm saying is that its interesting that pride month ended and NL is immediately obsessed with straights.

[@professorfrog7181]

Thats insane actually

[@colinmaroe5064]

He still doesn't understand plasma deck...it hurts to watch him build around runner and not sell Abstract before selling Invisible

[@RobotnikPlngas]

arent chips the most important thing in plasma?

[@tanoiason]

@@RobotnikPlngas OP means "NL built around runner (correctly) and even then decided not to sell Abstract before selling Invisible"

[@sebasmimikyu]

okay so im not crazy right? with this deck youre trying to get as much of chips and/or mult as possible, right? you just want the numbers to be as high as possible so they split into big numbers, bc either way theyre gonna be balanced

[@Blanket-King]

@@sebasmimikyu yes pretty much, but it's much easier to scale chips as they get bigger quicker through incremental jokers and whatnot. To put it in perspective a foil card/joker in plasma is worth 25 chips x 25 mult (since it splits from 50 chips) whereas a holographic card would only be worth 5 chips x 5 mult (since it splits from 10 mult).

12:49 *sells all other jokers to have a 50/50 on duping runner or abstract* I... I'm flabbergasted... I genuinely don't understand this play, even in the NL's universe where chips are less important than mult even on plasma

[@ScholarZero]

And there was a Shortcut *right there*!!! Sure it was rental and expiring but 5 blinds of basically guaranteed straights with two runners is practically a cheat code on plasma deck

[@aguy2241]

This whole thing of NL confusing Blueprint with Brainstorm has to be a bit cause he has done it every time he got blueprint for a few vids now.

[@DoubleYouYou]

I really don’t understand how you can play this game so many hours and not learn blueprint/brainstorm positioning

[@hoebare]

Folks, it's clear he has ADHD and/or dyslexia, among other things. He's a very entertaining content creator, and he's very intelligent, but he's working with challenges and as a neurodivergent person myself, I take some inspiration from him.

Your generation directly correlates to: The culture you grew up in The people you most closely relate to The things you were exposed to as a child In general, the type of people that raised you The slang you use Your generation absolutely has to do with the type of person you are (in general). Of course, not everybody applies to this. I don't. But as somebody IN Gen Z I can say that a vast majority of Gen Z are directly affected by the generation they grew up in.

bro sold his second abstract joker to replace it with blueprint to copy abstract joker.........

[@jonathanwilson8809]

Abstract joker needs to log the frick back off

[@nathanp.3206]

NL - plasma deck simply means chips are equal to base mult. Unless your mult multiplier is going to be more than the base chips of a joker, it is not better. 15 mult from abstract was nothing, even if you multiplied it by 5, it would still usually be worse than odd Todd.

[@chrismiles288]

NL, can I please give you a lesson on the plasma deck. It will make your life so much better

I wonder what it would take to make a mod that replaces "mult" with "chips" when using the plasma deck.

Why on God's green Earth would you sell abstract for a temporary blueprint copying abstract instead of copying runner which provides ~100 mult?? He really just does not understand plasma deck huh
