Hand will not score appears on the screen
Takes a second to look at the screen
Send me brother
If You played the game yourself its not thay uncommon
@@lambaman can confirm I have done this too many times
He didn't lock in.
I’ve done this way too many times lmao
i do this all the time lmfao
He's calmed down, he's back, he's on his third run inside of the 10 minute mark
x1.5
Lmao
Reading this comment 7:40 into the vid
hes locked in
in his lane, unbothered, flourishing.
him: has 3 aces, and draws 2 kings
me: oh no no no
him: plays it
I begged him not to
I saw it pop up
“This will not count if played”
He still plays it
Truly an 🥚 moment

Balatro is genuinely the best content from NL I have ever seen
It’s unparalled. The enthusiasm is infectious.

Such a great game i will never play because im too dumb
Things people who have not watched Rumbleverse say
I am more of a Cine2Nerdle Andrew but this is definitely close
To answer the "why is this not popping" question, a lot of the variance is from Bloodstone, which has absolutely wild swings, and how much you get from it depends a lot on face cards because of the retrigger joker. So a face card in the flush means that you're potentially giving a x16 multiplier off retriggered and Blueprinted Bloodstone (that's four 1 in 3 chances), and having four face cards would be a potential 65536 times increase in score. That's the extreme end, but Bloodstone introduces a lot of variance, and the variable multipliers lead to huge score swings.

Yeah the best play would’ve been to aggressively thin non-face cards from the deck as early as possible so the blueprint would be able to stay on the retrigger joker. This would have also been blueprints optimal placement with any hand he played with more face cards than non-face cards. That all being said the late game didn’t really offer a lot in terms of thinning or even strength cards.
I was running bloodstone on the checkered deck and it was heartbreaking when it kept triggering once on a flush
Bloodstone might be one of the most triggering cards in the game. I once had it, a Blueprint, and a Brainstorm pointing at it. Hit send, get anywhere between 5,000 to 500,000,000 points... didn't even beat Ante 8 because it constantly refused to trigger more than once or twice per flush! @@cyanthrope
Fibonacci also wasn't helping too much with the face cards. It would have been better to dump it for a different uncommon (to keep the 1.5x from baseball) that gave more consistent flat mult.
The world around me has become balatro. I have started to consume balatro. It is delicious.
I hear the music in my head all the time bro
i also love that he refuses to sort by suit whenever his cards get drawn face down and he wants a certain suit, could easily save discards 😭
I am become Balatro, thrower of runs
To be fair this game can be pretty harsh on rng, and also your attention cause itle throw a curveball that totally breaks your build and no matter how strong it is, if the boss blind breaks it that's it, caput.
@@OGNetro It can certainly make a grown man want to cry sometimes
my le game... it le pogged people....?
7:27 It was indeed my first thought when he played the initial full house
when i saw the blind i already knew ;-;
it was so funny
I knew it was gonna happen.
WYSI
when i saw the video on my feed i knew
i love the part when he gets the boss that says playing a flush sets money to zero right after he buys the voucher that lets him reroll the boss blind and is just like “eh we’ll work around it 💀
Adds two tens to the deck within the first 2 mins of the run. Discards two of them to look for a full house with other cards. He just like me fr
Get's 2 million points, "Change nothing!!!" Immediately moves blue print and scores 56k.
not my ass turning into walter white locked in a car screaming
I love the gameplay focused videos every once in a while, so thanks for all the YT exclusives
Balatro has the super auto pets and issac halves of my brain pogging at the same time
22:50 'More carts into hards' is one of my favorite flubs ever
Clogged up ears
'If life gives you pineapples, have a lu'au' that's a keeper
Thanks for all the fun content. Got some bad news recently and watching your content has helped keep me in a good mood. Thanks!
hope things turn out alright for you brother!
@@Zanaki113 Thanks!
"I want a full house situation." Proceeds to discard two 10s and then wonder where all his 10s are...
Watching him not realize the reason he isn't scoring high is because he isn't playing face cards for the retrigger is making me type a to the moon
This eggs so cooked I can't stop watching
Ro Ramdin being a balatro player is crazy I would've never guessed
ill keep watching em if he keeps makin em!
That Full House misplay... I feel for him, that was crushing. Also hilarious.
Buys the boss blind reroll, doesnt use it, gets a royal flush. Beyond skill.
Sock and Buskin inverting when it becomes negative is such a satisfying effect
35:42 rare footage
Defeated by The Eye. Ironic, the very organ that could have saved him.
22:48 "give yourself more opportunities to turn more carts into hards"
I'm always saying this
"If life gives you lemons you make lemonade, if life gives you fricken pineapples then have a luau man"

7:15 bro he was in a flow state RIP
When Balatro drops for mobile, society will crumble. Pokemon Go who?
I'd buy that day 1 and enjoy unlocking everything again
its worth knowing that ancient joker (and the totem and discard random rank jokers) chooses a random card in your deck to base its suit off of, so if you increase the ratio of hearts in your deck it can go off harder
RIP my weekend- just picked this up today after I saw Day9 get addicted
skwam skwam skwam skwam skwam skwam, skwam, skwam skwam
Why does he always say this?

POV me loving that this guy has glasses on to improve his vision and still failed to notice the boss blind after commenting on it on the previous run
If life gives you lemons you make lemonades, if life gives you fricking pineapples then have a luau, man!
I wish the Not Allowed! pop up happened in real life, great comedic timing
I love seeing him play a game he absolutely loves
51:46 Not going Fortune Teller here is crazy
I dont think that would really do anything since bloodstones x2 happens before it would give mult
If it were uncommon, you could argue to replace fibb with it. But nah.
More consistent then Malf, but idk if 30 mult is good at that point
This is actually so much more entertaining than if he played perfectly. I think he's doing it deliberately, he's a consummate showman
@27:23 - straight up cackled hahaha, love the content man!
"Overconfidence is a slow and insideous killer"
I’m literally going to run that first seed where he game over’d against the eye with the second full house just to see what could have been
Also this game is fucking incredible and I hope it stays around on this channel for a long time
20:12 if life gives you lemons you make lemonade, if life gives you pineapples you have a luau is definitely one of my favorite things he's ever said lmao
Balatro got me pegged up like the early SAP glory days
NL, for a straight deck - delete all 6,7,8,9 cards and you can reliably get a ton of straights off the aces. You run an extra ace as well since they are used in both straights. Then just delete one side if you go endless and have only one straight option.
when he didnt put the blueprint on the hearts-pilled ancient joker a little piece of me died man
Nothing is more relatable than NL fumbling a boss rule on the final hand
did this man just say "I'm gonna pump this egg"
8:40 was the laugh i needed after a long day at work.
The bind full house at 3:40 has me knowing this is going to be fun
7:15 oh nevermind, lol
I might be crazy, but i think we tend to underrate foil. In late game, you end up with 60k mult her pand played with like 300 chips max. If anything, foil is better than holo
her pand
So you'd rather have 350x60k rather than 300x90k?
@@krayvideos1096 Holo is +10 mult. Polychrome is 1.5x mult
HUGE! I'm glad you got my tip for Amber Acorn!
I know you don't tend to read UA-cam comments and I don't blame you but I am genuinely trying to talk about a mechanic that is really interesting, makes a huge difference to your scores, and easily missed. Getting mult from "When played" effects is so significant compared to flat mult added after your hand is played.
You did pick the heart joker that adds 4 mult for every heart played but almost didn't because you were compairing 20 mult to 18. That 20 so much bigger than you realise. For your deck it was 5 instances of 4 mult that had two 1/3 chances to get multiplied by 2. Say you get 5 triggers (which is pretty much the average) that's 248 mult just form that one joker, not 20 (and it's way more than that when you include your base hand mult). Not to mention a 6th and 7th trigger would make it 504, 1016 etc, it goes to the moon very quickly.
The other important thing is that 248 mult then gets effected by steel and polychrome cards. The 18 is always 18 and only gets impacted by jokers that multiply your score but "when played" mults are so much better because they get effected by so many other multiplication effects. Sometimes it is pretty much the same but your deck was the best possible example of how much of an impact knowing that difference can make.
nl struggling to not say 'sock and bussin' is a mood
I am not a Type A chatter. I'm just glad the Egg is having fun.
I cringed so hard it hurt moment: gets "8 ball", opens standard pack, ignores the 8.
That's the content I'm here for.
Missed opportunity to call it "How eggy got his mojo back"
Babe wake up there’s two Balatro vids to watch 🙇♀️
Type A viewer here: I enjoyed watching him ignore every single reason for purchasing his jokers on the first run, and then lose. So often he doesn’t pay a penalty for it. Maybe he’ll learn to actually read the cards.
...my brudda, he lost because he didn't read the boss blind, it wasn't joker mismanagement. He would be learning the wrong lesson here if that was his takeaway. The journey to eggscension is slow, but inevitable. Relax, trust.
me seeing NL throw a run and laugh only to then learn that R starts a new run so i don't have to click through the menu now
Man is out of control
That one stung me, I could feel the embarrassment through the screen. This game was made for NLs fantastic ability for glib.
My goodness. 59 seconds uploaded, and I'm already watching this.
Congrats on another billion!
I knew it from day one that it was gonna go down like that.
Babe, wake up. new NL just dropped
if you're going for a striaght build you want to delete as many low cards as possible. it's not about having multiple ways to get a straight that might fight eachother, it's about being able to consistently getting a few straights
Dear Localthunk,
In the next update, please replace Death with a picture of a friggin snake.
Balatro is the best game for NL, love the content!
Blueprint on bloodstone is better since when on bloodstone, each card is triggered twice with the bloodstone effect triggered twice resulting in 4 total triggers per card. When blueprinting the face joker, each card triggers 3 times with the bloodstone effect once, which is just 3 triggers per card. But this only applies when you have 4 or 5 face cards with no polychrome.
Why does Blueprint on Bloodstone result in 4 triggers per card? Bloodstone = 1/3 chance and Blueprint = 1/3 chance. Two triggers. Having it on Sock & Buskin is better if you're playing a hand with 3+ face cards, otherwise Bloodstone is better. "Blueprint on bloodstone is better since when on bloodstone, each card is triggered twice," this is wrong; nothing about Bloodstone giving a chance to double your mult or Blueprint copying that ability would cause your cards to re-trigger. What are you talking about lol
@@mhpurplerooster besides extra chips and possible polychrome triggers, blueprint is always better copying bloodstone, no matter how many face cards are in your hand.
with blueprint copying sock and buskin, assuming you are playing flushes, 3 face cards gives 11 chances for bloodstone, with 4 face cards it's 13 chances, and with 5 face cards it's 15 chances.
with blueprint copying bloodstone, 3 face cards gives 16 chances for bloodstone, with 4 face cards it's 18 chances, and with 5 face cards it's 20 chances.
If he learned to read he'd be unstoppable
i can't laugh at, i'm laughing *with*-- having blundered into not paying attention to the boss blind more times than i would care to admit.
Any chance of turning colorblind mode on? The increased contrast helps my smooth brain spot flushes easier...
look, i dont care if mega standard pack is the game theory play or not, its just pog as hell stop sleepin
Man without license drives fastest car in the world
53:26 that lucky card got 20 mult, 20$ and quad trigger from bloodstone/blueprint, consider my gourds pogged
Man what did I do to be in a timeline this amazing. Just watching NL Play balatro is so awesome idk
I play balatro and watch him play on my second monitor to really make sure my neurons are activated and I’m locked in to the fullest extent
I just had a run where I got a 4 of spades with polychrome, gold stamped, multi, and duped the heck out of it, got four of a kind to level 10, had blueprint on a joker that repeats scoring of 4s, and two jokers that one was giving 10 chips and 4 mult per joker 3 times cause of the blueprint and other joker, and other giving 4 mult per, and the polychrome for 1.5x 3 times each card, and then I had that one card that scales off selling cards that was easy to scale when I was making 9 per played card in a 4 of a kind. 35 million was my best single hand play and that was on a blind joker shuffle it ended up dropping blueprint in the perfect spot, I love this game man you really can do some cool stuff.
When I see Balatro 6 minutes ago, I click.
You know it's joever when you start agreeing with the Egg's choices😭
My gourd cannot contain this amount of pogs 🤠!!!
In this episode and the previous one he was on fire and brother, someone needed to put him out
Second joker he gets is Egg. Lock in.
An oops all 6s would have brought that last one to the moon
Man needs to learn how hard fibonacci falls off once you have good xMults going
I'm a simple man. I see a NL Balatro video, I click.
7:27
Well… I mean I knew for at least 2 seconds considering the “hand will not score” came up on the screen for that long, but I also knew that was gonna happen as soon as you started looking for cards in your hand you were likely going to get two of for a full house.
The three of a kind woulda got you there too which hurts my soul.
The first 8:30 of the video killed me
I have become a balatro fiend and i dont even know what a poker is
It’s an iron pointy stick you use to move the fire around
2:19 I dont usually comment about the gameplay but couldnt he have jettisoned egg for golden joker to overall make 1 more per round?
7:19 I never read the boss blinds, either your setup is so good that they shouldn't matter, or your setup deserves to lose to them anyway
I am upset that he sold the heart joker and refused to buy it when it showed up again. It was not just 20 mult, it was minimum 20 mult, with the all the red seals and retriggers, it might have often been a lot more.
He needed more flat mult, which the heart joker would have provided.
Having played this specific build before multiple times. Heart joker is better than any flat mult cards because it activates while bloodstone is activating.
Also, he should've been rerolling to get oops all 6's, blueprint or pareidolia. But otherwise, good run.
Things like this are the reason it's both incredibly painful and entertaining to watch NL
i got a hheart attack when i saw him not buy tarot joker and sell fibonacci, i think i am dying one year sooner after that
The full house play.
Hey NL, straight builds are easier than you think, you just have to lean your deck towards the top or bottom 5 cards and then pay attention to what you dupe and delete to keep the spread even. You got this big bro, i believe.
The throw of the century
egg me sell me reroll me get junk me
type A'd out of my gourd watching this.
