This Build is Madness

16:50 I’m not sure why but your reaction to a polychrome stone card with a gold seal is very funny and accurate

[@CaTastrophy427]

Once found a red seal polychrome stone card lol. Didn't take it bc I was already ante 14 deep into a straight flush run

[@girahimeslord6103]

WE call this one the moaï card

[@czerov3]

4:05 i actually just had an erratic deck run last night where early on i got Sixth Sense (spectral cards for sixes) and it gave me an immediate Wraith that gave me DNA. you don't gain or lose sixes, but you get Cryptid cards so i made like 20 sixes and played four of a kinds upgraded to level 12. the synergies in this game are endless. edit: seed was L1PPSY8M on white stake erratic deck. skip very first blind for rare joker that gives sixth sense. on the first boss destroy a 6 for Wraith and get DNA. I don't know if stake or deck matter for seed but i thought i would include it.

When he's getting e^5 more than what the blind requires because brain insists on playing a high-scoring hand and not the gold-seal card in hand. Or playing gold cards when they could just chill in hand. No hate. I just like money. Missed opportunities for money FeelsBadMan

[@zoompipes_twin2889]

Don’t even get me started on that steel king that he gave a purple seal to, AND THEN AURA Like, ah yes, steel card that should be kept in hand, let’s give it a seal so that we discard it! And then why not aura so that we can play the card too :D

[@sonan333]

@@zoompipes_twin2889 But the logic is to have a card that can at least always do something. That way, when you are making copies of a card, you don't have to ask "Hmm, do I want to copy my steel card, or do I want to copy my purple seal?". You can just do both, so that way you have a higher chance of drawing a card that can potentially be used in multiple scenarios, not just one.

[@zoompipes_twin2889]

@@sonan333yes but at that point he already had an insane card to play, being the polychrome stone card, sure it didn’t get a red seal but it still would’ve helped a ton with the polychrome and 50 chips

23:13 math nerd here, the way to figure this out is actually pretty simple, its just (however many characters there are) to the power of (however many slots you get). Iirc its just all letters plus the digits 0-9 for the characters, and the limit is probably like 10 or something? So thatd be 36^10, so around 3.656e15 seeds

Man it hurt me so much that he didn't upgrade ranks of playing hands ( at least first half of the video) it would have skyrocketed his score so high

Easily could have. Esp if he played the gold seal card, literally could throw it in most hands cuz stone and would have meant like $30 at least

[@jackthorndyke3390]

He really didn't need to though, he was already doing just fine. He was more wanting to spend his money looking for ankhs and other things that would scale, rather than temporary big numbers that do nothing

TBH the run ended once you bought "more tarots" voucher, they were absolutely suffocating your pull pool near the end.

[@pm146]

Especially since he was already drowning in them with the purple seal later

[@Razgriz1012]

One critque I would make is that when you bought celestial packs, you skipped instead of leveling up a hand. I know you can't sell the celestial card so skipping just wastes money. At least you can increase base of a hand you might not play, but it isn't a complete waste of money.

[@eden3669]

in some cases its to preserve whstever his last used card is, so that fool can copy it (e.g. death) but if the last used card is bad then yeah definitely better to use the planet card

That's been my observation too, which sadly means legendary jokers can never be eternal. Rip Yorick.

[@ALIMALI-gb6gl]

it has been changed in the new update

[@tewigaming2537]

how do you unlock eternals

[@Mythikal13]

@tewigaming2537 eternal jokers I think are purple stake and above? You just need to keep beating the new difficulties on your decks (:

[@davidsass4859]

black stake and above. In the modern game you can get eternals, perishables, and rentals from the shop and booster packs. Tarot or spectral cards that “summon” jokers won’t be eternal

[@edfreak9001]

35:35 in this video essay I will lay out my reasoning as to why there should be a spectral card that makes a card eternal- (maybe like- "Make this joker polychrome but also eternal")

[@nickh082796]

Idk if you know about the mechanic, but just like how jokers can show up in the shop again unless you have showman, consumables like planets and tarots can't show up on packs or in the shops if you're holding them in your consumable slots. It makes it easier to hit things you need when you limit the pools

[@diabolicaloverlord23]

I had a great double stencil run earlier where I got lucky with some negative jokers so I was able to keep some slots open

[@daveprice5911]

i did double stencil bluprint the other day which was also absolutely wild but sadly that just doesn't go exponential, died on ante 11

[@frozenzenberry4101]

[@anon8453]

they should introduce a spectral card where you can select a joker & make it eternal, i think it would defo have a lot of use cases in normal runs

[@YingwuUsagiri]

Someone in chat mentioned negative playing cards and that sounds absolutely sick. Like the others they wouldn't count towards the hand size so if you pull them from the deck it wouldn't count and you pull an extra card. So hand size 8 + 5 negative cards would mean that you have a hand size of 13 cards which would cascade into Steel Card shenanigans or any other "still in hand" effects.

[@Zo0I]

So if your deck consists of fewer non-negative cards than your hand size and the rest are all negative, you would just draw your entire deck at the start of each round? Sounds so broken

[@respondcreate]

Request: when you do seeded runs in the future can you put the seed code in the description or a pinned comment? Been loving your Balatro videos!

[@dr.blockcraft6633]

I mean, There is The seed Listed at The end Of the Video. The main Issue with Just listing The seed, Is that It will Be different Depending on Whats still Locked, and What isn't. Using the Same seed, But different Unlocks, will Result in Different things.

Hey, if you ever do the "typecast" challenge which makes your jokers eternal after ante 4, and you get the verdant leaf which debuffs all your cards until you sell a joker like I did, have fun, I love balatro.

[@katunu6030]

Im just saying multiple negative stencil joker would be a banger combo if someone got a seed for a negative stencil joker.

[@pizzabruh1223]

I’m assuming that the balatro creator is planning on adding custom challenges so we don’t have to worry about seeded runs like this

[@TurkIsAwesome]

if you had upgraded and only played high card, it would have been better i think. especially with the eternal baron

[@isteinbergli3510]

Cool that ankh can duplicate the eternals. I wonder if it's theoretically possible to duplicate beyond the joker limit. Eg. if you get Perkeo to duplicate a bunch of anks, then swap it for an eternal joker and make like twenty copies.

Don’t stone cards score regardless of the hand played? Wouldn’t it be better to play them as high card to scale chips with mult?

It only works with eternal jokers, it's not good enough on its own to carry your early game, and you cant really afford to feed i 3-5 gold jokers every turn either in early game. if you have a good base mult/chip eternal joker it MIGHT be worth going for madness.
