I love when Skootie puts out a video in which in the middle of it he's like "are we just gonna lose?" I like to imagine one of the times he actually will, and then he'll just cut to black and leave it a black screen for the next 55 minutes of video :P
@@alexsiemers7898 No, yeah, obviously that's a completely normal thing to say in the middle of a run, it's just funny when it gets recontextualized. On stream there's tension there. On youtube, there's extremely not
I watch a bunch of social deduction board game videos so I have to avoid looking at the timestamp to avoid spoiling it for myself... I guess that's the price I pay for not watching it live hahah
@@jaredjohnson3436 kid, he's not going to give you praises, Skottie needs to do some eye testing as he does mess up colours and shapes quite often. It's not to make fun of him but to make sure he's okay
36:44 If you copy dusk you get an extra trigger on every 2 giving you a total of 5 triggers (regular, dusk, dusk, hack, red seal) on a red seal card, making hiker trigger 5 times. If you copied hiker you get 4 triggers on every card (regular, dusk, hack, red seal) on a red seal card. However, Hack triggers twice on every trigger of the card, giving you 8 triggers of hack on every red seal card.
The sad thing is even tho it is cool to scale so much the chips, in the end it is always weaker than mult, because mult has the times mult instead of plus mult. Like, when he started using glass cards, the mult was in the millions, while the chips, that he had been building ALL GAME, were only in the thousands (Still impressive tho! Usually chips never reach so high!) anyways, there’s always things to comment on about how op a build is on endless vs how viable a fun build can be
That's true, but chips are still rather strong since it still determines how much your mult actually matters. They're just not capable of heading to endless as the sole focus unforch
25:48 You had Strength and an ace of hearts. Talk about wasted oportunity. And could've bought a Sun card at 30:07 Love the video, but damn, those hurt my brain.
Wouldn't it be better to copy hack or dusk than the blood bag? Am I missing something cuz the glass would always be x2 plus the chips instead of just a 1 in 3 twice of the x2?
The difference depends entirely on how many times his hand scores from all the retriggers he has, which was 5 times by the end of the run. The more retriggers you have already the more valuable Bloodstone becomes. Copying Hack would give multiplier worth 15 Bloodstone triggers on average. Copying Bloodstone however gives a total of 25 triggers thanks to the fact his hand scores 5 times. As you can see there if he copies Bloodstone, his average score actually increases by 32x compared to having one more retrigger. Side Note: The chips from that extra retrigger only increases the total score by roughly 17%. Also his version of the game has Bloodstone have 1/2 chance for the 2x multiplier.
It is in fact much better to copy bloodstone (for score) Original trigger + red seal + dusk + hack + seltzer = 5 triggers 5 triggers is 2.5 bloodstone triggers on average. 2.5 bloodstone triggers >> 1 more retrigger
retriggers dont trigger every previous retrigger, so if a card was being triggered 4 times, copying hack would only make it trigger 5 times, not 8. blood bag will have a chance to double your mult on every trigger, so copying that will double your average score
Misplay. He was wanting the flush five planet, but needed to play the blue seal to get it. So instead of playing one of the extra 2s for the five of a kind, he played four of the same card.
Just curious, because i think im missing something, but why doesnt he brainstorm hack? Woudlnt that just be better than brainstorming one of the other cards?
Would rather have mult for a few turns and then a chance to pivot for something better vs something that does fuck all most of the time. Space is such bait
Is there a reason he doesn’t have the game on 4x like most other content creators? I understand that there might have been a lot of new people when it first got released, but is that still the case?
Sorry in advance for backseat gaming but i think you should consider rolling less on single turns. You're often over-rolling down to less than $25 and getting less rolls in the long term. Love the video
Balatro is a game that starts off as "oh look at all these cool synergies" and quickly becomes "watch retriggers go off for 10 minutes straight while the streamer desperately tries to find that one joker they've been digging for the last 20 antes" RUclipsrs will get amazing jokers and you won't even notice because you're in a different window and they didn't react at all to it because they're too zonked out by the monotonous gameplay, then you gotta go back and see when they bought it and it was like 4 minutes ago. If this game has caught one thing it's that just like gambling: at first it's fun and interesting, but eventually it gets to the point where everyone wants to keep on playing even though nobody has had any fun since like a week ago. TL;DR retrigs need a rework.
I wish I could watch these videos because I love balatro but its so boring watching normal difficulty where you can win with literally anything. 0 challenge

I think it’s just survivorship bias; there’s probably plenty of runs where he does lose midway through and thus doesn’t make a video on them.

I feel like I've seen a few videos where he says that, and then he loses and starts another game 😂
Nah, he'd win
why didnt skootie talk to us in the beginning
I'm sorry, it's my fault. I liked the video before but, you know, I didn't LIKE it like it.
he’s done with our shit
He hates you
@@chaboof120😢😢😢😢😢
Because you've been a bad boy
Seeing him skip the trading card at 28:28 right after talking about how he needed to remove cards from the deck was painful.
how am i supposed to know if i like the video or not skootie
I think Skootie should keep the colourblind mode on, he keeps seeing spades as clubs.
Who asked
@@jaredjohnson3436 Sorry to announce this but it me, I'm the one who asked
@@jaredjohnson3436 general observation
@@JacobTheCroc do you really think pointing out everything skootie does wrong is a good way to encourage him to keep making balatro content?

I just finished a run I got an early hiker after that I got a brain storm and a blueprint in the same shop. Seedless. Such a fun run
Got the seed?

Happens when you don't have self multiplicative effects tho
In that final hand the hiker had provided just shy of a x8 boost to score (without needing to be present)
with plasma deck it would be much better but yes, in the long term mult scales much faster.
Where's your intro? :(((((
Not the same without: “if you like the video, like the video”
He hates you
The first few seconds got me to turn up my sound to max, only to get earraped by the joker pack opening
25:48 You had Strength and an ace of hearts. Talk about wasted oportunity.
And could've bought a Sun card at 30:07
Love the video, but damn, those hurt my brain.
31:50 "I feel it won't go that far" ...
This build was insane, the misplays throught tho
7:14 nicenice
😂
Really should’ve kept glass joker
you can put high contrast on cards so clubs are blue and diamonds orange. Like that you can avoid mixing up
Love the gameplay but the game speed not being on 4x is near unwatchable. It’s painfully slow
2x the vid
What a cry baby
Always wanted to see a good hiker build

17:20 I'd like to get a negative, he says after skipping the negative pin
Most random negative jokers are hot garbo compared to a mid to late game shop.
yo, i only just realised, are those headphones oneodio a70s? i've got those too
You know the endless gonna be good after you hear "We keep going" ❤
Hey- genuine question, why do you play on such low game speed?
what was the point of that hand at 21:40 ???
Misplay. He was wanting the flush five planet, but needed to play the blue seal to get it. So instead of playing one of the extra 2s for the five of a kind, he played four of the same card.
Damn should've sold dna before using the invisible joker.
Hmm, with the shenanigans here, I'd love to see a DNA, Canio, Hologram glass face card build.
Just curious, because i think im missing something, but why doesnt he brainstorm hack? Woudlnt that just be better than brainstorming one of the other cards?
Dropping space for popcorn is wild lol
Would rather have mult for a few turns and then a chance to pivot for something better vs something that does fuck all most of the time. Space is such bait
space sucks imo
Wouldn't it be better to always have DNA after Hiker since it copies the card and you want it to be after the Hiker effect?
Hiker triggers on score, DNA triggers on play, so order doesn't matter
Did he reroll on an immolate, or was it just an incantation?
Would the Revolution Joker work well with this since He's playing 2's?
Why not play any planet cards?
19:54: me when I need to make money fast
I don't understand what's the wee joker
Why does he skip on ectoplasm twice? We could have done with the negative joker space
Hiker is plus five chips? Did I miss an update? I thought it was plus four chips
Are you thinking of square joker?
@@halcyonacoustic7366 don’t think so, I’m used to it being 5 now but I swore it used to be 4
I was wondering, why does it feel so slow 😅
Is there a reason he doesn’t have the game on 4x like most other content creators? I understand that there might have been a lot of new people when it first got released, but is that still the case?
2x is easier to follow for videos, he switches to 4x in the late game when rounds take awhile
Sorry in advance for backseat gaming but i think you should consider rolling less on single turns. You're often over-rolling down to less than $25 and getting less rolls in the long term. Love the video
What does he stream on???
has anyone found an unwinnable seed?
SKOOTTIE no cap
Am I missing something why is wee joker good?
Get +8 chips every time a 2 is score go check that seed to try it ante 2 seed : lupin11
Synergy with hack getting retriggers on 2s doubles the already fast scaling, retriggers again with brainstorm. Retriggers also synergize with hiker.
Least strong hiker on their way to give you 30 million chips.
I CANT BE THE ONLY ONE THAT THINKS THE JOKERS NECK THING LOOKS LIKE TINY LEGS AND ARMS!
You have cursed me with the image
I literally can’t get it out of my head now 😂
Why is Skootie only hitting a single card with Strength?
You should put your camera at the top with the rest of the jokers because you are a streamer. 🎊
Should have taken enhanced aces and strengthen them to 2s
Missed out
No intro?
Bro please turn up your game speed
Haaa- ck😂
