Honestly, I love that you get to manipulate the deck a lot more now, and that you can actually reliably use tarot and cards. This game is turning out really good.
Its funny, when i first found your channel i thought to myself "well he's no retromation but he's not bad" and now i find myself watching your content way more often than retromation
@33:21 I take it you were still spade pilled from last run when you double dipped on the Queen of spades? Those two Kings of Clubs were green with envy.
I glupped when Tyler was leaning on selling the misprint joker. Having three copies of it would be any gambler's wet dream. Definitely think the joker that pops a tarot pack when you have a Ace straight overstayed it's welcome.
Stoked you're into the game, man. I don't normally like deck builders, but this one is so fundamentally simple it's very chill to watch. Cheers man, thanks for the content!
I love that you're enjoying this game, hoping to see more Balatro in the future. The builds can get wild. Just today had a build that had a best hand score of 269,821
There is a Joker that lets you make straights with gaps between the numbers (so 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 would be a straight) -- and the one that lets you make straights and flushes with four cards; and if you get them both you'll just start making straight flushes accidentally.
Yeah, I did that in a run and it’s a little bit broken because if you also get the smear joker, which makes this even more crazy smear. Joker makes it so that spades and clubs are counted as the same and hearts and diamonds are counted as the same. So, with all three of these jokers, an Ace queen, jack ten is technically a royal flush it’s so ridiculous. Oh, and by the way, without even the joker that lets you skip the king queen jack 10 is a royal flush by itself if you have the four finger
With the four fingered joker you don’t need them all to be the same suit to be a straight flush. As long as it contains a straight and a flush it’s fine. So you gout have an ace, queen, jack, and 10 of clubs and a king of hearts and it would classify as a straight flush.
Just to help out a bit. You misread the pants joker. It's not really clear, but the way it works is that every time you play two pair you get a permanent 2 mult on that card. Two pairs isn't hard to get so if you get them early you can get it up to a 30 or even 40 mult.
Really great game. Don’t forget that the order of your jokers matters. If you have a joker that multiplies your mult, you generally want that last as they trigger left to right. Like on that second run, you had a “plus 4 mult for each club played” after the “x1.5 mult (plus .25 for each card added). I didn’t realize that was how that worked myself until this recent demo but it can make a huge difference. Edit: I don’t know if that was changed or if I just imagined that from the last demo but it seems I am incorrect and they trigger automatically in a certain order. Was there not a circumstance that joker order mattered outside of ones that say something like “all cards to the left of this card”, etc?
Joker order always matters, but jokers that trigger on scoring a card trigger when the card is scored - so you would put Greedy Joker before Photograph
Ah, I see. I saw later in the video what looked like them triggering out of order but it was just skipping the card trigger jokers. I was wrong about being wrong, I’m a genius, etc. lol
There's definitely not as much luck in this game as it seems. I am currently on a 9 win streak and it's really clear that skill is a huge factor in this game. Keep it up and you'll get better and better. Given that there's going to be difficulty levels, I'm sure we'll all get much better at the game.
It is a gambling game, but you're making it way more random than it needs to be by building around straight and flushes. If you just build around full houses and two pairs most of the time you can cut out a huge amount of the luck and actually win once in a while.
two pair can win you games pretty easily with a couple buffs. They also have the benefit of card removal since you can put a fifth card in that you don't want instead of discarding.
You don't need to chase it really; a level 2 straight flush is 140X12 - it scales accordingly. Compare this for instance to level 6 full house which is 140X14

I'm a simple guy too, when balatro releases I'm gonna play many games of it in obsessive succession
Lol i thourth the sams
22:57 you can sort your hand by suit to try and guess the face down cards, it helps if you need a specific suit

It's poetical really.

True true true
I've seen runs get into the millions or billions per hand but 269,821 ain't bad either

I saw your first video game looked sick so i downloaded the game and now i am just straight up addicted and i am so exited for the full realese.
Magic deck is also lit when you save the fools for overpowering the move you want to run.
That second run was insane. Keep up the great work Tyler
Agreed

I feel like balatro is gonna get a pyramid deck on full release... dunno why

I know hindsight is hindsight, but u could've increased your odds of a queen in the last round by not keeping two aces during every discard.
This is really cool and I think the trick to being good at it is just frankly being willing to sit and calculate odds and values
This demo is so much better than other full games that cost money😭
There is a Joker that let's straights have a 1 numerical gap as well. That with the 4 card straight/flush joker is dummy broken
Olexa best early hand that is safe to go for is straigh. Give enough points to one shot or two shot the first small blind
Been a hot minute since I've seen Balatro but it's still a treat
Can’t wait for the full release
you can use the sort buttons to mitigate the face down cards

The tutorial as of yesterday still says they trigger left to right and I believe they do.
Ah, I see. I saw later in the video what looked like them triggering out of order but it was just skipping the card trigger jokers. I was wrong about being wrong, I’m a genius, etc. lol
Dude I can’t deal with your logic sometimes that joker that gives you a random mult is broken good
And sometimes it’s garbage. I’d rather build something with guarantees
Losing the 1st one was unironically a skill issue, you could have figured out the suits by sorting your hand differently.
31:16 i’ma try and get a straight with an ace proceeds to discard a 5 a 2 and 2 3s😂
You seem like you like two-pair a lot. Just telling you that my best build was with a two-pair strat.

Imagine playing this game as a physical pvp game id buy it
34:57 bro you missed a flush 😭
also i love this game, please make more videos on it
Mimimi Bro missed a flash
You keep chasing hard to make hands. Boost up something simple. High cards, pairs, two pair and you will get easy wins.
It is a gambling game, but you're making it way more random than it needs to be by building around straight and flushes. If you just build around full houses and two pairs most of the time you can cut out a huge amount of the luck and actually win once in a while.
Flushes are easier to make than full houses you dolt.
I feel like the two pair is a trap because its score value is HORRIBLE for a 4 card hand
two pair can win you games pretty easily with a couple buffs. They also have the benefit of card removal since you can put a fifth card in that you don't want instead of discarding.
Its annoying that your flush lv and straight lv doesn't provide any benefit to straight flush, makes it almost useless to chase
You don't need to chase it really; a level 2 straight flush is 140X12 - it scales accordingly.
Compare this for instance to level 6 full house which is 140X14
Im pretty dumb so I like to watch people play games that are too hard.
Remeber when you where Issac only UA-camr. I want you to do the same with Balatro
