Finally a watchable tip video for new players! Great job breaking things down and not getting too meta. Less than ten minutes and usable tips off the rip. Thanks!
Just won my first game after playing for a couple days! I played with the yellow deck and had a "Straight" build that smoked everything by Ante 7 &8. Didn't get much further than that - looking forward to implementing these ideas and improving. Cheers! ♠️
I'm new to this game, this week, but I feel like the skip can be pretty handy for getting zero cost powerful jokers early... especially if they come negative and uncommon or rare. I don't bother it for packs or cash, and I haven't been doing it later in runs... but in the first ante or two, I'll go for a free joker. Still new, and I don't really KNOW... but it feels powerful enough to be right.
Usually no, since you have no idea what you're going to get and whether it will even help you, and the cost of a rare joker is going to be less than the money you get from a round + interest (and if it isn't yet, it will be in opportunity cost). It's not always a bad choice in low difficulty runs, but in higher difficulties it can easily kill your run. On Gold stake it's basically never worth it.
Oh! That's what Tags are. Skipped only three times and Found Out what you just stated: It makes the Boss and progress in general harder. Did start using your flush tip to get my first 8th ante win yesterday with green deck.
I was looking for this comment! I'll often start a new game repeatedly until I get two two tags that I really like back to back, then I skipped the first two rounds
Thank you for this guide. Currently trying to unlock all the jokers before I try to finish decks up with all the stakes. Is there a possibility for an endless guide? That’s when I get the most fun to see all the big numbers but I’ve never beat ante 12 round 1 😂
Curious how other people feel but most spectral cards are more often absolute trash than not. They are just such crazy high risk unless you are playing a seeded run where you could restart.
I think a lot of spectral cards can be trouble for a lot of runs but I love opening up Spectral packs for the hope I get Immolate or the chance to add a blue or red seal on a card that I use for that particular run. It's the thrill of the hunt!
I think spectral cards are fantastic. Talisman, aura, medium, cryptid and black hole are compatible with any deck. Ankh and hex work the best when you have one joker. Familiar, grim and incantation work great with hologram joker or if you are looking for face cards or aces. Wraith works great with credit card joker or in any scenario where you need to climb out of debt. Ectoplasm is good for mid to late game when you need more jokers. Ouija paired with turtle bean or juggle tag can make a fun deck. Sigil or soul cards are the disappointing ones. Over all about half of the spectral cards can be used with any deck or build, I find them to be more reliable and better than most tarot card packs.
Thanks for the infos. I got the game since launch and always sucked to it. Love it still but so frustrating. Got a massive win naturally on mobile version and want to return to it on PC too but the wins not being obtainable even at lowest difficulty pissed me off.
Watching other players is cool, but I'm avoiding doing that until I'm frustrated with the difficulty. Because it would have robbed me from the feeling of surprise when I got the first million hand
I feel like I will never get the 1000 million hand lol is there any chance of doing a short video showing the full page list of all the jokers I have a handful of jokes that I don’t know what they are as they are greyed out and it just says select the joker to reveal it but I don’t know which they are if that makes sense. I can’t find this info anywhere would be very helpful.
Any joker that is still blank and already "unlocked" just needs to be picked during a run. If you hover over a joker in the shop and it says "not discovered" then buy it and it will show up in your collection
@@ZacharyAaronHerestuntman has been one of the greatest chips joker I’ve used in gold stake runs. Picking it up early with a scaling mult joker and it’s basically a guaranteed win on any deck
Is there any fairly consistent way to get negative jokers outside of skipping blinds? I’ll usually always skip a blind if the reward is a negative joker…but that’s about the only time I do that.
Not consistent but you can get a negative joker from Ectoplasm in Spectral packs. There's also just a small chance of negative jokers appearing in the shop so having good econ with the power to reroll a bunch could net you some negative jokers.

Thank you so much! 🙏 really helpful and well articulated for beginners 😊
Glad it was helpful!
These are great tips and very relaxing to watch 😊
Thank you, means a lot. More coming soon
I had to check this out because it's been nominated for a shit ton of awards

Been playing for a while but still not very good. This video gives me hope, thank you.
I'm glad! Report back and let us know how it's going. Good luck
@@BeansHambone Thanks again.
Good stuff. I think proper hand and play and joker ordering should be focussed on.
Love and blessings!
Thanks! I agree! I think proper Joker ordering is very important! Stay tuned!
1:25 "Don't skip"
Meanwhile me who won White Stake Blue deck with *11* rounds
My jaw almost hit the floor when I did that without even consciously trying. Throwback was being so good to me.
Honestly the first two rounds can be the best to skip if it's for a free joker that has x# mult
I was looking for this comment! I'll often start a new game repeatedly until I get two two tags that I really like back to back, then I skipped the first two rounds
I feel like early game money generation usually is better than 2 jokers unless it’s a multi that can get you through to ante 4 on its own
I mean if you skip: skip for an awesome joker. Other than that, I don't.
"Try new strategies"
Me with the clutch that is baseball joker: oh well
If it ain't broke, don't fix it
When I clicked on this video I definitely did not expect to be called a beanie weenie 😅
Great video. Hoping you share more guides for beginners.
Yes, going to make more tip videos for beginners. More to come! Thanks!
😊@@BeansHambone9:09
Excellent video
Glad you liked it
Skip is a must if The Pillar boss blind shows up.
Absolutely!
great video!
Thank you very much!
Nice video 👍👍👍
Thank you!
I will only skip for double tag then negative joker

Yo thanks for the shoutout and great vid!!
Wow, thanks for watching my video! This made my day!
Great video!

It's a tough game but the more you play the more you pick up on strategies and synergies. I'm glad your having fun. Keep it up!
0:35 i have poor poker understanding, how was that a flush? Is that a feature of your deck?
Yes, a Flush is any 5 cards of the same suit and in this case, all clubs.
Ótimo vídeo! - Brazil
Thank you!
Great tips for someone who is new to game like me. Thx
I'm glad it helped you! Welcome to Balatro, hope you're enjoying it!

Did you get the 1000 million yet? The best way is triboulet with sock and buskin then mirror or brainstorm or both and a bunch of kings
@@ZacharyAaronHereNo not yet the above sounds good just need the luck to get them jokers despite having triboulet unlocked I never seem to get it
@@magz9816 it only unlocks stuntman. He's not great without the balance deck

3:30 pretty sure you meant to the moon, shoot the moon is the one that scores queens +13
Good catch! You are right!

Number 8. Man... 😅
I've won twice, but watching this is me learning about interest. I uh, I don't read stuff (oops)
There's a lot of things to learn about Balatro and interest is not talked about enough! I'm still learning things!
realizing I've been making mistakes 30 seconds in 💀
