    13:02 - Regarding NL's reasoning, I decided to go full Type A viewer, and posted this in a response to another comment as well.
    Let's try to solve this quantitatively. Double check me to make sure I don't make any mistakes.
    The multiplier value from copying Gros Michel is (30 • X) + (Y • X), where X is the multiplier from obelisk and Y is whatever multiplier value you get from the hand (hand type, mult cards, suit triggers, etc) prior to moving on to triggering the jokers.
    The multiplier value of copying Obelisk on the left is (Y • X²) + (15 • X). You're copying Gros Michel one less time, and it only receives the multiplier value from your Obelisk Copy, not the original. On the other hand, your mult prior to jokers triggering is now multiplied by both, so you get an X² multiplier on Y.
    To find the break even point, we set these equal to one another and solve for Y. This will tell us at what value our mult prior to joker triggers has to be for it to equal the value of copying Gros Michel.
    YX + 30X = YX² + 15X
    Y + 30 = YX + 15
    YX - Y = 15
    Because the square of X is involved here, it means the breakeven value is going to change depending on the value of X. Setting X equal to a series of values provides a series of "isomult" curves which should give the breakeven value for a given Obelisk magnitude. If Obelisk's multiplier was a continuous variable, these would describe a smooth surface of point payouts for any given Obelisk value, but the payout is actually a discrete variable so it's a discontinuous series of "ridges." If you were to plot these, you would find a progressively lower Y breakeven as the value of X goes up and the square of X has a larger impact on the initial Y multiplier.
    Let's look at this for the first hand played at 14:54 . The Obelisk multiplier is at 3.2 here so we have:
    3.2Y - Y = 15
    2.2Y = 15
    Y = 6.81818181 (repeating, of course :P)
    So, your initial mult only has to be roughly 7 for copying Obelisk to be a better idea than Gros Michel. On that hand of two jacks, one of which was a mult card club suit, the initial multiplier from the hand prior to jokers is 9. So in that instance, NL would have been better copying Obelisk over Gros Michel. That's not an especially strong hand, so I would imagine in most instances, except maybe playing a single pair with only 1 or 0 clubs and no other effects, it is probably preferable to copy Obelisk. Any hand with at least a couple clubs in the score is going to outperform with Obelisk.
    It's even easier to see if we set the Obelisk value to, say, 4. You only need a Y of 5 to break even. At an X of 5, you only need a Y of 4. Given the low margin that NL lost that run by at the end, I suspect copying Obelisk would have saved that run for him. But this is part of why Balatro is such a fun game!

      @nathanhopkins7976 9 месяцев назад +4

      As an addendum, this works out even more lopsidedly when he starts copying Gluttonous Jokers instead. In that instance it's
      X(8C + Y) vs X²(4C +Y)
      Where X is Obelisk, C is the number of scored clubs, and Y is all other sources of mult.
      Just glancing at it, the right expression is definitely greater than the left expression for all X>2 at any given number of clubs. I think it's probably a bit lower if you factor in Y depending on how big it is, but this is a 3 variable equation so it now describes a 3D space and I'm too lazy to work out something more comprehensive. 😂

    13:31 But imagine if you had 10, the you multiplied it by 2... Then you multiplied it by 2 AGAIN! It's better than adding first then multiplying if your adder is less than even the early multiplication. That's what you're missing out on not copying obelisk on the left.

    13:40 I think this is actually a misplay in this situation. Because he has the club joker which adds mult as the cards are scored which means he'll usually have enough initial mult for a 3x on the left to be worth more than a +15

    • @masterplusmargarita
      @masterplusmargarita 9 месяцев назад

      Say you're in a pretty good scenario playing a default Flush with the Obelisk at 4*. If you're copying Obelisk, the copy has you going from a +4 mult from the Flush to a +16 mult, which is only adding 12. Copying banana gives you +15. In both cases you're then multiplying by the same number at the end, so copying banana ends up being more. I guess optimal play is to rearrange the order mid fight depending on what the math says, but that's beyond what I (and the egg) can compute. The math also probably changes when the mult from the Obelisk gets higher and it gets better to copy Obelisk.

    • @rjlarson6744

      @@masterplusmargarita You get two times with copy on the far right and obelisk on the left: obelisk triggers first, without any additive mult bonus at this point, then your other jokers go, then your copy on the end triggers. It's better to have the obelisk at the left and copy at the right, you're essentially squaring it plus a bit more.

    • @BenRHarsh
      @BenRHarsh 9 месяцев назад +1

      ​​@@rjlarson6744Exactly. Unless your first joker adds more than obelisk would multiply, it's almost always going to be better to do multiple multiplications anywhere in the lineup as long as you have as many as possible on the right.
      You're doing exponentiation at that point, which is even better than multiplication. He's too caught up on the "multiplication last is best!" idea to realize he could be a level above that.
