If you were curious, Doc plays on average one card every 8.24 minutes in this one. Edit: He made a liar out of me. It was actually a much more reasonable one card every 4.12 minutes.
My biggest takeaway is that Throwback is truly not good. Obelisk can scale by 1.8x per ante, Madness grows by 1x, neither hurts you as much as skipping twice every ante for .5x on a joker.
One very minor tweak to Throwback: I wish Throwback counted the number of skip tags rather than the number of skips, so that Anaglyph and Root Beer both made it better.
The professor's been in the bottom left corner. He's been submerged under the same corner. He's been hanging upside down on the top right corner. Now he's floating. But when will he become wide?
Wow when you said you'd do this challenge I didn't expect it the very next day, you're a legend! Forgot to give thanks on the last mega run video even though i got so many hours of enjoyment out of that video just like all others. Keep on rockin doc 😎
True low% implies the existence of Truest low% where: Each action counts (buying a joker/consumable/card, opening a pack from the shop, picking a joker/card from any pack, using a consumable, buying a voucher, rerolling, each card played or discarded) aside from skipping (in rounds or packs).
I just did a boots/throwback skip run to unlock the wee and the other one. Watching your videos really helps me understand the game. Even with going back in time once, I ended with 12 rounds and honestly, did 1-2 more than I feel like I needed to.
theoretically the highest throwback you can get is 19.5x since you can skip twice every ante and theres a max of 39 antes, we multiply 39 by 2 and then divide by 4 because of the .25 scaling it has and you get 19.5
Hi prof, great vid as always. Was wondering if you had any idea of the strongest single card ever made, courtesy of hiker? Can't wait for the next vid!
There are times like at 56:10 you buy one of a free joker without first buying a free joker to sell. Love the videos, just a mistake I find myself doing a lot.
Do you not have legs and are lifted by some hook above the ground, or are they just bent 90 degrees and glued to some other wall, like some super reverse michael jackson extreme?
Yea there's a lot of ways to accomplish that, but in general just keep in mind how many points you need to score for ante 8 and if you are at that number you don't need to play rounds. Also don't go for jokers that need scaling from played hands, look for flat mult jokers and xMult jokers that only require conditions, like seeing double, or ramen
hey dr wanted to ask if you have like a modlist somewhere of the mods you have installed, or if you made them yourself, idk if they're public or whatever. I just got to downloading mods and was curious about yours. thanks in advance!
There's a curated list with download links in the Balatro University Discord. If you're a Twitch subscriber or Ko-Fi contributor, go to your Discord > Settings > Connections.
Did you use Brainstorm Mod to set up these seeds? If so, how did you set it up to get your Holo/Foil Stuntman specifically through the Judgement cards?
I think it would be cool to attempt a low inputs run that includes inputs in the shop - so your literally just trying to beat the game while clicking as few times as possible.
I was thunkin ab if we could get it down to 7 cards. Taking enough ectoplasms to go down to no hand size and saving w senior bones but u still need to score 25% w him
Assorted quality of life features we use in long endless runs such as the "animation skip" for long scoring/money animations and the "enhanced deck viewer." When you open the deck, only the remaining cards are shown, while the drawn cards are invisible (vs the regular deck viewer which makes drawn cards gray).
A normal run is 8 Antes long, requiring a minimum of 8 hands (one hand each Ante). If you take Hieroglyph, you get to / have to replay an Ante, for a total of 9 Antes.
a quality of life mod which improves the deckviewer+ (normally the game grays out and lowers the opacity of the cards you don't have in your deck but with the mods the cards don't appear making it easier to see what cards you have left) gives some extra stats on jokers ex. shows how much money a golden ticket and other money making joker has made in the run has the option to remove animation unlike the "low dizzy"(? forgot the exact name) mode which turns off some animations like the background or card moving, this mod deactivates animations like: jokers animation, consumables animation, levelup animations, triggering animations from red seals or any other enhancement and score animation which makes the long runs that dr. do go much faster (like his 7 part run that would be a lot lomger if not for this mod) hope this helps you (人*´∀｀)｡*ﾟ+

Thank God there were two runs, because I was struggling to see how even the loquacious Doctor could stretch an 8 Round speedrun to over an hour.
"Loquacious" is fire
@@drspectred Complimenting someone on the use of advanced vocabulary is exactly something id imagine the prof would do.

Still took him an hour lmao

The Doctor says it pretty well in his tier list, roughly, "If you skip to build up Throwback, you won't find any Jokers better than Throwback."
It used to be .5 per skip right?
it is retroactive though
@@dylanberger8701 For a whopping x1.25 Mult.

Professor needs to start bulking
He clearly skips leg day
what the hell prof got no legs
He loves hands so much that there’s no need for legs.
how is he supposed to use his biggest pants two pair then?
Wow when you said you'd do this challenge I didn't expect it the very next day, you're a legend!
Forgot to give thanks on the last mega run video even though i got so many hours of enjoyment out of that video just like all others. Keep on rockin doc 😎
Thanks! You keep on rockin', too.
Ngl it’s kinda reassuring to hear the prof say he can only do 50% of gold stake runs.
that shit is hard, homie

Wait, truest low is basically just aiming to win a normal game of poker but you have to score impossibly high
Balatro 100% no A presses
These videos are very comforting to have in the background and also educational. Thank you.
My only issue with these BU uploads, is that whenever I put one on, I feel the need to stop whatever I’m doing and go play Balatro
Oh its been two days since he uploaded docs dead gg
@@Cheetahhh fr
The grind is real for this guy
What a change of pace after that high hand level run lol
I just did a boots/throwback skip run to unlock the wee and the other one. Watching your videos really helps me understand the game. Even with going back in time once, I ended with 12 rounds and honestly, did 1-2 more than I feel like I needed to.
This was amazing, pulling this off on random unseeded runs.
theoretically the highest throwback you can get is 19.5x since you can skip twice every ante and theres a max of 39 antes, we multiply 39 by 2 and then divide by 4 because of the .25 scaling it has and you get 19.5
you get 2 extra antes with hieroglyph and petroglyph
You can get 4 more skips by purchasing the -1 ante vouchers, so the max would be 20.5.
Bit late here but it starts at one so would be 21.5
loled at “Wet Joker”
The absolute mad lad with two back to back runs
56:17 if he's gonna get a joker why not both 😥
this guy played 0.12 cards per minute
Hi prof, great vid as always. Was wondering if you had any idea of the strongest single card ever made, courtesy of hiker? Can't wait for the next vid!
professor has ascended
Just finished watching the first run, that was pretty cool.
I keep coming back to see if there’s a new upload
There are times like at 56:10 you buy one of a free joker without first buying a free joker to sell.
Love the videos, just a mistake I find myself doing a lot.
I'm now excited to see the new prof location every episode (suggestion upside down :D)
Genuinely, I had thought of this last night and was actually planning on asking you 😭😭. I have no idea how this happened
he's flying now im scared
Do you not have legs and are lifted by some hook above the ground, or are they just bent 90 degrees and glued to some other wall, like some super reverse michael jackson extreme?
He just floats there using Balatro science. Consequently, his legs have atrophied to near invisibility.
I see doc has lost his big pants record, they took it alongside taking his legs
This is the most intimidated I've ever been in my life.
What does the "mass use" do when you select a planet card to use?
It's a mod. If you're holding onto multiple consumables and click the mass use button, it uses all of them at once.
The fun you can have with this game on white diff. Too bad on gold the whole thing collapses
directors cut: "am i a joke to you"
I have a skipping addiction and its led to some great runs but also has caused me to skip into a boss blind i didnt prepare for !!
Is there a reliable way of beating Ante 8 in less than 12 rounds?
Or do I need to be lucky which would be lame.
Yea there's a lot of ways to accomplish that, but in general just keep in mind how many points you need to score for ante 8 and if you are at that number you don't need to play rounds. Also don't go for jokers that need scaling from played hands, look for flat mult jokers and xMult jokers that only require conditions, like seeing double, or ramen

Punished for not taking the boss reroll voucher
Did you use Brainstorm Mod to set up these seeds? If so, how did you set it up to get your Holo/Foil Stuntman specifically through the Judgement cards?
Manual rerolls for this one. It was hell, honestly.
Is there a known seed on the erratic deck that has the normal deck to start?
professor is back in the corner!
I think it would be cool to attempt a low inputs run that includes inputs in the shop - so your literally just trying to beat the game while clicking as few times as possible.
I was thunkin ab if we could get it down to 7 cards. Taking enough ectoplasms to go down to no hand size and saving w senior bones but u still need to score 25% w him
45:23 gets away with it lol every time
You know what's gonna be asked of you next.
Do max%. Use every hand, every discard. I dare you, nerd
Can’t sleep. Hope this is a long one
Not 24 hours worth though. That last one was a doozy
why do you say plutonium when all are planets?.. jupiterium?
the golf poker
Oh no his legs!
I think you forgot you got rid of delayed gratification halfway through and were playing like you couldn’t discard
No, the challenge was to minimize hands & discards, so he aimed to win with 8 hands and 0 discards.
what's the saturn button do in the pause menu?
Assorted quality of life features we use in long endless runs such as the "animation skip" for long scoring/money animations and the "enhanced deck viewer."

I miss you 💔
"I don't think we want to go back in time, because extra ante means playing an extra hand".
... WHAT?
... to be clear here. Going back in time does not force you to play an extra hand, right?
A normal run is 8 Antes long, requiring a minimum of 8 hands (one hand each Ante). If you take Hieroglyph, you get to / have to replay an Ante, for a total of 9 Antes.
@@drspectred How did I not know this already.
@@stevecinnibarhoffman What did you think it did haha
@@Cruxin For some reason I thought it just reduced the ante costs. I didn't understand that it literally made you play an ante again.
what was the saturn button in the options menu
a quality of life mod which improves
the deckviewer+ (normally the game grays out and lowers the opacity of the cards you don't have in your deck but with the mods the cards don't appear making it easier to see what cards you have left)
gives some extra stats on jokers
ex. shows how much money a golden ticket and other money making joker has made in the run
has the option to remove animation
unlike the "low dizzy"(? forgot the exact name) mode which turns off some animations like the background or card moving, this mod deactivates animations like: jokers animation, consumables animation, levelup animations, triggering animations from red seals or any other enhancement and score animation which makes the long runs that dr. do go much faster (like his 7 part run that would be a lot lomger if not for this mod)
hope this helps you (人*´∀｀)｡*ﾟ+
