The LEVEL 30 PAIR Run! - Balatro

Balatro Part 13 - man who famously hates planet cards goes with the flow this one time because he got a joker that levels up pairs. This joker is genuinely busted, probably one of the best ones to get early. Enjoy!

Dude this editor is built different. The amount of cuts from a full stream is astronomical. I hope you get that outside time my dude/dudette.

[@Galaxy82_]

Sometimes I wonder if Dan sleeps, but he does really good edits sooooo

[@AssJagger]

I believe he’s got 2 or 3 editors, who are really good, but it’s not just one guy making a video every day. Tyler also always credits the editor in the description so you can see who made the specific video

[@sazam974]

@@AssJagger the description says only dan worked on this one

[@arcanelizard4646]

@@sazam974They meant that there isn’t just one editor under Tyler’s employment that churns out these videos daily, but a team that takes turns editing various videos/series (for example, I believe Dan did the entirety of Can of Wormholes, and Dan and Ben worked together on Paquerette)

[@gatharen]

I'm not the type to usually comment but I also came here to say this. The editors meme games go so hard.

[@RawrKatz]

The Boeing joke was so much funnier then it should be

[@Bunnyblaster12]

One of my favorite editor jokes of all time probably

[@quailconsumer]

nah right hilarious

[@bluntizard4481]

24:48 Very neat mechanic here. Stone cards will play and score even if they aren't part of your hand if they have stone taken away by Vampire

[@Cloiss_]

extremely cursed to play a Pair in which 3 aces score

He doesn't realize yet that this is one of the best strategies if you want to win on max difficulty

[@lesquish7487]

A lot of my wins are off of pair focused decks, half joker is one of my favourites jokers

[@ShadowPhoenix4798]

High card is currently the best method for late game, baron/mime/blueprint/brainstorm/perkeo/cryptid with a deck of only red seal steel kings.

[@jc_art_]

I havent gotten that far in the game but i see how thats the case, turning a game of chance into consistency, who needs to hope for something good when every hand is good, makes sense

[@MrEddie4679]

@@ShadowPhoenix4798 I love that this game basicly embraces that you win by being a imaginative child. "My 2 win, it went to the moon and was burned so it leveld up. Then a vampire and a baron was pleased so it is super valuable"

[@adumbfurry7036]

Spectrals are a case of risk-reward. They have powerful effects, but with a cost. Cards like Ankh can be extremely powerful in the early antes to focus down a build, immolate to thin your deck, and hell, if you get wraith and have credit card, you can go to -20$ and gain 20$. I would say that once you get a joker you know can make a run, like hologram…you can use the spectral cards to make that joker insane. Also, deja vu for red seals can go crazy with enhanced cards. Red Seal + Lucky Card + Oops all 6s + lucky cat = crazy. Add an ankh to get an extra all 6s or an extra lucky cat makes for some crazy stuff.

[@adumbfurry7036]

If you want to see these things in action, try a few different seeded runs.

[@kevinmattsson5718]

I've found things like Ankh even more powerful in late stakes when you start getting eternals, it becomes even less risk and even more reward and it's won me several runs (like beating Purple Stake first try on yellow deck with early madness+ankh+other eternals)

[@bogesy]

watch as Tyler grows a pairs to levels yet unseen

[@thebestcasually]

it reminds me of the high card video

[@MoonlitLillypop]

stone cards are unironically really good for low hand decks since they always get counted

[@lllllllllllll544]

at 11:05 the editors note actually made me laugh out loud, big up the editor

[@koblstone6504]

Best joker combo I got was turn all face cards to gold cards, vampire, and all cards are considered face cards. My vampire was giving my times 15 by the end.

[@ShinjiSixteen]

22:27 We don't deserve Dan

[@ILKOSTFU]

XDDD

[@ShinjiSixteen]

5:48 Strongly agree! Spectrals are super spicy, but the risk/reward evaluation on them is incredibly tricky. Glad I'm not alone on that!

15:38 *Man Behind the Slaughter intensifies*

[@happyboy05867]

tip: play with high contrast cards texture pack. It makes it a lot easier to tell which suit is which sometimes.

[@joshyaash]

shapes are hard

[@Vizaru]

agree, high contrast cards is a great setting to enable

[@kalebanderson7483]

Not sure why Tyler doesn’t use death to make more purple seals and hang man to thin the deck for them too.

[@enderguardian7443]

the burned joker run is REAL (can we get much higher)

[@georgiwenckovsky9748]

endless run with burnt joker

[@canadian_grim_reaper]

175k on a pair? Today in sentences that would make sense on a cracked run of Balatro or Landlord

[@salemuxo]

dan your little jokes add so much i love you

[@bigevil178]

That intro made me laugh more than it should have 😂

[@rippintires2252]

Tyler not knowing the suit change tech to get rid of the pillar debuff at 24:43 hurt me a little bit because of my min-maxing playstyle. Could've changed the jack with gold seal to diamonds with star to get an extra $3 .

[@Cloiss_]

i mean yeah its one of the most unintuitive mechanics in the game, alongside how cards like burglar and merry andy interact with the water and the needle

[@zucchini5056]

Always fun knowing I watched this live and still here to watch it again

[@Malloumario]

I'm waiting for the insane 5e19 run, that was very hype in the stream

[@flleaf]

I know that he won't read my comment at that point but i finished this series (in like 3 days) and very thankful for making those. I feel like now in real life i can think faster and explain my thinking better and am better at not forgetting things. In addiction to the fact that i enjoyed the watch... That's a pretty good run!

[@artemisSystem]

14:36 me when i get my orchi

[@darmenite4455]

So i ended up hearing from somewhere that there's actually a trick to how Wheel works, depending on if you wanna control your odds a little more (Edit note here, this is of course in addition to the 1 in 4 chance already present for wheel to hit or miss, for anyone reading this that gets confused) Wheel targets one of two cards at a 50/50 chance, the oldest applicable joker you have, or the youngest. When wheel hit your pair joker it chose the newest, otherwise it would've hit campfire since that's your oldest (not counting burnt since wheel can't replace editions). Also, the edition given is X out of 6, 3 for foil, 2 for holo, and 1 for poly (i think, it may be 1 in 3 for each instead)

[@BCDeshiG]

Good to know that it doesn't replace your existing editions

[@HornAndHaloWrestling]

Watching someone play this for my first time is probably how other people watch me play my own favorite games

24:36 Stone Card 2: Electric Boogaloo

[@littleepic5419]

(Balatro said these, I just said some things from it) Soon eight ball will be different, it is back to taroh/tarot (I forgot how to spell it)but a different way to get it (not two eights), it’s ‘1 in 4 chance of getting a tarot/taroh card from a 8 played’, so it’s better Orange stake and another stake will be different too, we don’t know what are those changes I think there’s some more joke revamp it the only leak that balatro said is eight ball revamp

[@thelonelybritV2]

I played a run of pairs as I watched this video. I had to re-roll a few runs until I got the burned joker, I got it around ante 3, & I managed to get pairs to level 23 by the time I got to the boss at ante 8. I didn't get far in endless mode though as I had no mult multipliers.

[@MrEddie4679]

WHY DOES HE SKIP THE DEATH AND HANGED MAN WHEN HE HAS A PURPLE SEAL

[@Sotanaht01]

And vampire and that tarot joker. He could be maximizing purple seals, maximizing tarot uses, and getting so many buffs for the vampire. The campfire is really frying his brain.

[@aapohaikala8164]

Stop backseating bruh, sure it's pretty obvious but let the mans play😐

Should've done endless just to see how far out it would go.

[@stinkyfen]

[@crafty453]

Tyler, after I've 100%'d my game of Balatro (I got it towards the start of Spring Break for me, being around March 20th-21st), I'm gonna do a challenge called a "Replication Run". Essentially, I'll be using a seed that you had in one of your videos, only I'll be doing my own gameplay through it, and trying to see if I can beat the seed in a different way than you did. The rules are simple. At no point may I make the same selections you made at certain points (as in, what I purchase at a shop. Everything else is fair game, whether it be because it's literally forced onto me, like the Blinds, or it being an optional choice, such as using Consumables and purchasing Vouchers). I can use whatever deck I want, as well as choose whatever stake I want. There's no prize or penalty if I complete or fail the run. This challenge is entirely for fun, and I'm gonna want to challenge myself after 100% completion.

[@davidpodnecky2482]

Wait is this from stream? I think I missed one stream VOD, so maybe from that.

Why did tyler keep missing the fact that they had a discard left

[@GeassX]

He's trying to save the discard for the purple seal.

[@Fitsz]

ourple seal

[@captaincrutches1874]

Tyler is do have a suggestion each stream put timestamps for each run

It's funny because stone cards have potential to be run-losing: The vamp eats it and plot twist, the hand turns into a triple, losing all the levels Edit: Nevermind

[@void_836]

wheres the goblin stone at sadge

[@RoderickEtheria]

Why are you not using your last discard?

[@Tamtarter]

Because he's digging for the purple seal, but you need a Discard left over to get the bonus. If he doesn't have it with 1 discard remaining there is no benefit to searching any longer
