"Sock and buskin" are ancient symbols of comedy and tragedy. In ancient Greek theatre, actors in tragic roles wore a boot called a buskin (Latin cothurnus) while the actors with comedic roles wore only a thin-soled shoe called a sock (Latin soccus).

You know you've been playing a lot of Balatro (maybe too much) when your dreams are about literally getting Mime & Baron, then going all in on high card... And then this video pops up & I cry.
Love watching your videos! One tip that I think most people gloss over with the mime/baron combo is that you want to split them as evenly as possible BUT you want to err on the side of mime. Think of it this way: the steel card is basically already a baron so optimal is 1 more mime. I wrote a script to generate the values but I don't think you care because I assume you're less of a dork than me
@@charles-492Mimes' additional trigger is more like changing the exponents, which is not commutative. 5 mimes and 5 barons is better than 1 mime and 9 barons or 9 mimes and 1 baron. And as OP mentions, when you have an odd number, an extra mime is correct due to steel cards.
I laughed when that pack had both Ride the Bus and Green Joker, because those were some of the worst picks you could be offered for your "fish for face cards" build.
might be a dumb question but i’m still trying to improve my understanding of balatro in general. at 10:44, would it have been worth holding onto the temperance until the end of the round since gift card adds sell value to your jokers? or is there something i’m missing
dude i've been watching this video and i don't think i saw a SINGLE hanged man until 47:36 i thought i was genuinely tweaking or there was something wrong with the game
I got a goated high card run on ghost deck gold stake. I got an eternal green joker in the first shop and then in the second shop I got a spectral pack with ankh.
Play a lot, and know what to look out for. Plus white stake lets you get away with a lot of earlier shenanigans / greeding which would kill you at higher difficulties
Not sure about Roffle but I thought it was pretty decent for gold stake before the patch too. The main buff would be the blue seal change which in a deck with a simple game plan like checkered is nice, that and the fact that straight flushes are both significantly easier with extra +1 hand size and stronger with the Neptune buff
The -1 hand size really hurt checkered deck more than other decks, since with 8 cards you can pretty much always get a flush (and you can actually guarantee one with paintbrush), but with 7 it's a crapshoot
Order of operations. It counts the Baron first, and doesn't calculate Mime until Baron script is complete; therefore, he's copying Baron with Blueprint & Brainstorm, plus copying Mime with both copy Jokers on top of that. It's not a bug or glitch & you've gotta make the move fast, but it adds about 2.5^x scoring (x is the number of red seal kings plus steel) Edit: also swapping to Mime allows the gold cards to duplicate as well, so 3x the money
I hate the fact that the way he plays makes me want to yell at my screen half of the time but I can never tell if that’s intentional and I’m just a type A youtube commentator
If this is unseeded or unmodified and just regular balatro i am either the unluckiest Person or someone is lying. First pack 2rare, ante 1 cardpack several cards with extra. Even ante 4 i rarely get sth Else then regular or stone….Seems sus
roffle has had terrible runs that dont go past ante 3 on streams, he only uploads runs that past ante 8 on yt cuz people dont wanna watch a bad run lol. which makes sense
You’ve been commenting on almost every video, I can’t tell if it’s a bit or you genuinely can’t tell that he just doesn’t post dead runs because they’re less exciting than the ones that go high lol
@@c4mrblx No, that's not why. He was still playing all sorts of hands at that point in the game. With the benefit of experience since I asked the question, he was trying to score low to maximize the number of times Vagabond would trigger.
My favorite recent development in gamer slang is "technique" abbreviated to "tech" now being unabbreviated to "technology"
Pretty sure in the fgc tech always stood for technology.
@@ogolthorp he meant technology = technique
@@jonasl9068But that person is right. It always stood for technology
Gamer linguistics is an interesting concept, I like
@@ogolthorp Conclusion: Balatro is a fighting game.
"Sock and buskin" are ancient symbols of comedy and tragedy. In ancient Greek theatre, actors in tragic roles wore a boot called a buskin (Latin cothurnus) while the actors with comedic roles wore only a thin-soled shoe called a sock (Latin soccus).
...I'm guessing that is where the actual word "sock" came from as well
@@mikubrotYeah. Unknown Phrygian/Anatolian language -> Ancient Greek súkkhos -> Latin soccos -> West Germanic soccos -> Old English socc -> Middle English socke/sokke/sok -> Modern English sock.
So a modern translation would be Sock and Boot? Fascinating!
Oh good, I was struggling to sleep! Thanks Roffle
Big Pluto…..I still have never gotten even close to 100 million, let alone all of that e! Great run and great video
Good to know I'm not the only one.
Roffle sleep crew assembling
He does have a weirdly soothing voice

I was falling asleep to this video last night and 31:31 scared me awake

And then this video pops up & I cry.
I've been going for naneinf unseeded, and I legitimately dream about the game now. I feel you LMAO
33:43 the ok google triggered my google assistant lol
mine too, started give me search results for how to clean "ectoplasm" 😂

1 more mime is the same as 1 more baron. Multiplication is commutative

48:03 bro why does it fit so well with the music
12:23 to 12:46 ish is a PERFECT yt short lmao

It would have been optimal yes
The perfect timing would be after the gift card adds value but before you go into the shop
dude i've been watching this video and i don't think i saw a SINGLE hanged man until 47:36 i thought i was genuinely tweaking or there was something wrong with the game
he used two before that, or maybe one but i feel like i remember 2

Me when someon asks what is the first phrase Eminem uses on the 3rd strophe of "Without Me" but i dont remember the lyrics very well.

I watched this through a tornado LMFAO
Rofl, my Google Home answered your "Okay Google how do I undo an ectoplasm" (dunno if that was your intention).
I got a goated high card run on ghost deck gold stake. I got an eternal green joker in the first shop and then in the second shop I got a spectral pack with ankh.
plutopilled dwarf planetmaxxer
I had a midas mask with a vampire set up on the all face cards challenge, easiest first try challenge run in my balatro experience
How do you get these crazy combos lmao
I gotta check out a stream to see how you do it
Getting high card runs are extremely easy, just gotta r a few times :)
to be fair if you play balatro a lot every day good chance you can get a good run often
Play a lot, and know what to look out for. Plus white stake lets you get away with a lot of earlier shenanigans / greeding which would kill you at higher difficulties
You can get high card build like 90% of the time with plasma deck. It’s mainly just managing your economy
Other decks still can get high card run going quite consistently, but plasma early game power make it much easier
It's now 9:11pm
And in Western Europe it's 2h - 3h ^^ (A.M)
In eastern eu 4/5 am
41:48 it's not the drunk wins that are the problem it's the drunk lost runs
And I'm over here struggling to hit 250k fml lmao
Who else is up Buskin' their Sock to this?
Might be a mistake on me but i often death the purple seal early to get loads of tarot cards (average high card e68 enjoyer)
Unfortunately i don't ever get all the jokers i need for a run like this.
If the run lasts long enough you can find anything
Dumb question, but why is checkered deck an easy one to Gold Stake post patch? Did flushes get buffed?
Not sure about Roffle but I thought it was pretty decent for gold stake before the patch too.

GG for the 20k !! Alain a good video
It's not "How high card are you," it's "Hi, how are you card."
How high are you card
Why does he change the Baron with the Mime after hitting Play Hand?
Order of operations. It counts the Baron first, and doesn't calculate Mime until Baron script is complete; therefore, he's copying Baron with Blueprint & Brainstorm, plus copying Mime with both copy Jokers on top of that. It's not a bug or glitch & you've gotta make the move fast, but it adds about 2.5^x scoring (x is the number of red seal kings plus steel)
Edit: also swapping to Mime allows the gold cards to duplicate as well, so 3x the money
it’s to make brainstorm/blueprint copy mime for the gold cards at the end
I didn't unlock the skip unlimited times boss, so I lost at the ante 13 :(
Mr streamer, i lost count of the amount of times you threw in this vid and I'm barely halfway through 😅
It’s better to duplicate the mime rather than the baron because they activate the baron and an extra gold card
You can duplicate baron and then move to the mime while the hand is scoring so that it triggers the gold again
Bro held on to that devil tarot for dear life damn
HOW DO U NOT REMEMBER BURN JOKER
am I crazy or are his gold cards less shiny than normal
What happens if all face cards are debuffed😂
Skip use voucher that cost 10$ to reroll boss blind
i have a game rn with baron and mime LMAO, i dont wanna troll it

How're my fellow nightdweller s
Dear roffle randomly scream like someone is about to pinch you it help me focus on the video

He plays multiple games a day, I've had better than this with about 35hrs in game, idk what you could find sus about this
roffle has had terrible runs that dont go past ante 3 on streams, he only uploads runs that past ante 8 on yt cuz people dont wanna watch a bad run lol. which makes sense
Yeah right, but how many runs did it take to finally get to this ?? You're fooling nobody.
If you know how to play the game this isn’t rare
You’ve been commenting on almost every video, I can’t tell if it’s a bit or you genuinely can’t tell that he just doesn’t post dead runs because they’re less exciting than the ones that go high lol
why would he post hundreds of failed runs when you can just go watch his stream, the page is obviously for high scoring runs
and yeah what would he be fooling them about 😂, he even says he failed dozens of runs previously that day in most of his videos
I feel like the more tutorials I watch, the more confused I get. Like, why would you discard a flush instead of just playing it?
His build prioritized over high cards, so playing flushes or any other type of hand wouldn’t help out in the long run.
@@c4mrblx No, that's not why. He was still playing all sorts of hands at that point in the game. With the benefit of experience since I asked the question, he was trying to score low to maximize the number of times Vagabond would trigger.
