NL maxing out high card and then not taking the Holo Stone card (unironically the single best card he could possible get in that scenario) to take a vanilla 2 of spades has been pogged out of my gorde, it's just like SAP man we are so back.
Wouldn't the benefits from adding holographic stone to a hand outweigh the benefits of making a flush? Its 50 chips 10x mult. Not to mention you can just keep it in hand if you have a flush, and play it when you don't. Less discards is better for green joker too. It's not like it's hard to make flushes when every card is the same suit too.
Somebody tell him he can sell tarot cards outside of the shop. The button is right there. Sorry for type A comment but woulda made the difference on this run
Also wait until he figures out that you can move cards around in hand to more favorable positions for glass cards and face cards with Photograph Joker.
@new_at0m just drag em. Just drag a card to the right and its now the rightmost card for any tarotts or joker with that kind of effect. You can also sort your hand in different manners which help when cards are obscured
You can shift the glass card to the right, so it doesn't double your mult until the last card is scored. That means the mult from all previous cards gets doubled. Same is true for polychrome cards and face cards with the photograph. The order of your jokers up top also matters
@@new_at0myou want to apply all additive mult buffs before you start applying the multiplicative buffs. Because your mult will get exponentially larger if you multiply last rather than add
I could’ve sworn he made several videos on Balatro yet every single game mechanic seems to be brand new to him… was his first run with balatro just a fever dream we all share?
It’s always been like that. You need to have him commit things to muscle memory and have people tell him what stuff does or how to do stuff. Aside from that he just kinda plays cards he thinks synergies with his deck instead of thinking over what would be the best play at the moment, since you can see he discards the clearly best cards for the cards he believes would work.
Some real interesting choices made on these runs... not reading the cards to noticing how busted your straight flush points were and then throwing away the joker that make straight flushes easy.
Juicing your high card or pair levels might seem really bad because it only scores one or two cards in the hand, but it's a lot easier to utilize stone cards in such a build
23:33 holographic stone looks so good man, I wish NL tried that. The boost from adding it to a hand probably outweighs the benefits of making a flush anyway.
I dont see anyone mentioning so I feel I need to. He kept playing those x2 multiplier face cards at the very start of the play rather than the end and it was giving me an aneurysm
For the final hand, ordering the cards so that the King and Jack were at the end would have resulted in doubling the 3 spades before for an additional 42 more mult for another 3024 which would have cleared the round.
He easily would have won at that last hand if he was smart enough to organize his hand so that the picture joker would go off after the numbered mult cards activated.
29:26 > Do nothing and get $1 > Do nothing Bro really hates money (I'm aware of vagabond synergy, but NL would've stayed under the $4 limit, plus you get money from the round anyways)
So much pog in this game. Also stone cards become very good with high card builds since stones always score. This game is going to blow out my dopamine receptors in three weeks when it drops.
I just watched the Sony show thing, Death Stranding 2 came on with the maddest trailer you've ever seen. Needless to say I was thinking I could die happy if NL and Kojima collab'd.
I think straight is easier to make only in normal poker rules, where you're basically seeing a set of 7 cards out of 56 and you don't have control over it. In this game you start with a bigger known hand and you can fish for other cards by discarding specifics, and by then fishing for flush is easier than fishing for straight since you're very likely to see 3+ same suit cards in the initial hand.
I tried the demo and wow, it is a very fun very interesting idea, sadly i cant play poker for the life of me, not even with the hands on the info, but i hope this game does very well, it's well deserved!
I wonder when NL will realize that making a card glass is not a way to destroy the card but instead it is so over-powered that they had to make the cards break over time as a balancing mechanism. Following this up by placing the glass card all the way to the left when spades add +8 mult each was 🤌🏽🤌🏽

I don't think he realized that the stone card just always works. He said it was "hard to play" despite being literally the easiest card to play lmao
@@denvil6489 If all you see is flushes, the stone card is dead weight
I was pumped to see the high card build, and just when it started popping off he abandoned it

The tarot and the joker, they arrive calmly from their shop with a sense of purpose
Oh no! It is the blind rocket launcher! Take notice of that individual
They are playing from their deck! The card is soaring!
can someone PLEASE explain what any of this means or is from, I'm dying here
Plants vs. zombies streamer that speaks Portuguese gets AI translated into English, it sounds really off
it's ok, I'll handle this. I AM THE ANGRY JOKER.
Discarding wild cards to look for spades is such a great move here
"This card gives you a bonus if it's in your hand"
NL: So anyways I started discarding
These Balatro videos are catapulting me at mach 3 speed towards becoming a type A commenter
Fr. So many mistakes. I just tell myself he’s only playing for vibes
Noooo. Come back to us brother! Quick, do some shit posting!
any pedantic backseaters? -2

I'm almost certain that NL said the thing about Wheel of Fortune needing a cosmetic effect the last time he played.
He did he did!
And he's right
Never has a man not knowing what he's doing get so far.
"Relax I'm going tarot mode" is what I say to myself before I meditate.

putting the face card at the front of the hand played to double a small mult every time is so funny
I cannot help but back seat.

Oh God I'm going to become a type A viewer
Commenting to juice the algorithmn. Looking forward to the full release. RIP backpack battles
RIP backpack battles
I tried watching Hafu play for my backpack battles fix a while ago but she was honestly too good. I couldn't keep track of what was going on.
did he actually say no more, or is the meta just too cooked?
Juicing your high card or pair levels might seem really bad because it only scores one or two cards in the hand, but it's a lot easier to utilize stone cards in such a build
Wait until he remembers the sell button, then it's over
NL using glass to hope it breaks and gets out of his deck had me psycho
besides just ignoring the bonus it gives, it made no sense because under no circumstances is he going to play that card
anybody want to count how many straight flushes he discarded or ignored in the second game?
Not really, it would make me sad.
The shop reroll neglect is real
We'd love to see better jokers more often Me at the comedy club:
There ain't just one joker in this video. Can you spot them all?
23:33 holographic stone looks so good man, I wish NL tried that. The boost from adding it to a hand probably outweighs the benefits of making a flush anyway.
Thank you King for the bespoke UA-cam content, i will survive another year
IM NOT RELAXED!!!!!
I dont see anyone mentioning so I feel I need to. He kept playing those x2 multiplier face cards at the very start of the play rather than the end and it was giving me an aneurysm
Someone needs to teach him the order of his hand matters
"I DO be flushing most of the time"?!
NL you gotta be flushing that terlit every time
8:25 what a stupid joke that made me laugh way too much.
Ikr had me rolling
For the final hand, ordering the cards so that the King and Jack were at the end would have resulted in doubling the 3 spades before for an additional 42 more mult for another 3024 which would have cleared the round.
Love to see this Balatro playing Joker
My man really doesn't like to convert cards to try for royal flushes
He easily would have won at that last hand if he was smart enough to organize his hand so that the picture joker would go off after the numbered mult cards activated.
36:00 I’m CRYING
WHY IS KATE YELLING😭
Balatro in UA-cam, now this is epic
Bespoke Balatro LETSGO
Damn. He's really going Jaimie Lee Curtis mode.
that last round was a heartbreaker so close
REROLL! Please for the love of god, I'm losing it over here
Who else remembers "hey, drop a fry?"
Ngl watching NL have like $30+ in the bank and just skipping over buffoon packs is driving me up the wall
41:55 the fact that he got The Fool directly after playing his steel card is very funny
This is taking me back to his first Isaac videos when I'd be yelling at my screen that he missed a tinted rock.
I love this game! Thanks for introducing me to it
29:26
> Do nothing and get $1
> Do nothing
Bro really hates money
(I'm aware of vagabond synergy, but NL would've stayed under the $4 limit, plus you get money from the round anyways)
green joker + vagabond what a novel run i wonder whether well ever see that one again
sell during a round
magic deck goes crazy for content dude
Much like Mon Bazou, I'm glad to see this one returning hard!
This is amazing, its just like SAP but no cute emojis to mask over it
"Is the easiest hand to get a flush?"
looks at malfs flush attempts 😢
So much pog in this game.
Also stone cards become very good with high card builds since stones always score.
This game is going to blow out my dopamine receptors in three weeks when it drops.
You fr will go 🤯
NL is not ready to change the order of the cards to have the X2 mult at the end of the point count
Thank you! No one else is saying this.
33:30 everything after sent me over with how many hands he could've played wirh serious points
A backseaters favorite meal
As to why flushes are easier than straights to make, consider how useful your discards are when trying to force a hand into a straight.
I could watch NL play Balatro for the rest of my life and die happy
fresh for yt balatro pog
i love balatro content
imagine if he got the double vagabond though
NL: Just playing the game.
Commenters: Going crazy in the comments.
Me: "My kind of entertainment!"
I just watched the Sony show thing, Death Stranding 2 came on with the maddest trailer you've ever seen.
Needless to say I was thinking I could die happy if NL and Kojima collab'd.
My dad is a huge poker guy, but trying to explain Steam to him seems like a nightmare lmao. Localthunk, pls make a mobile port
That's in the plans according to him on Discord
14:39 LocalThunk and Poncle should exchange notes, haha
25:16 Me lamenting the fact that I am a natural-born comedian, when really I want to be a newsreader
I love balatro
This is the worst game of balatro i have ever seen, i am so god damn pogged for the next one
Sell tarrot cards, you can sell anytime , sell em NL! you looked at the sell button!
but then how could he complain he has no money and also no slots for more tarot cards every round
I love to see it
You asked if a flush was the easiest hand to get that matters - a straight is slightly easier to make, just a bit harder to spot.
I think straight is easier to make only in normal poker rules, where you're basically seeing a set of 7 cards out of 56 and you don't have control over it. In this game you start with a bigger known hand and you can fish for other cards by discarding specifics, and by then fishing for flush is easier than fishing for straight since you're very likely to see 3+ same suit cards in the initial hand.
Bro discarding the steel card on sight😢
I'm curious to see if this game could do a blend of an auto battler/draft multi-player game
Ngl this game got me wanting more Slay the Spire. Too bad the algo wouldn’t do it justice
I think The Wall is a new boss, and it SUCKS bro. Talk about a great equalizer.
look, I'm pegged whether he sells or not
BUT...
What was that scream at 36:02 😱
Juice time!!!!
i know he doesnt care but if he just moved his face cards to the back at the end cuz of photograph, rip
MOVE THE DAMN MOUSE FROM THE CARDS SO I CAN SEE THE NUMBERS GOING UP
My dude, you are going hard on the Balatro content releases. Save some for a rainy day.
Full version is releasing in 20 days he's fine.
Algorithm
Runs high card but doesn't buy stone
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
eg
I like him, i hate how he plays, but i like him
Is he ever noticing that the card order isn't set in stone? FACE CARDS LAST man!
Not my guy nl just wasting tarot cards instead of selling them. Why was he so focused on the hermit card ICANT.
you know it's going to be good when he brings out the Kubrick Stare
could of won the last hand if he placed his face cards after his other cards
So painful watching NL play this game 😂
Was this game not already a demo?
it's an updated demo. full game end of month
I tried the demo and wow, it is a very fun very interesting idea, sadly i cant play poker for the life of me, not even with the hands on the info, but i hope this game does very well, it's well deserved!
Just go for full house or flush and that's all the hands you'll probably ever need to make (imo)
hey drop a fry?
I feel like you forgot everything about this game over 3 months. lol
The streamer brain rot is real
brother, describe your breakfast from 3 months ago
I wonder when NL will realize that making a card glass is not a way to destroy the card but instead it is so over-powered that they had to make the cards break over time as a balancing mechanism. Following this up by placing the glass card all the way to the left when spades add +8 mult each was 🤌🏽🤌🏽
