1:17:12 right here, he skips on a card that would've shot him to the MOOOOON. Ancient joker multiplies score by 1.5x each time he plays a card of a certain suit. lud only has two suits in his deck so it would be easy to get flushes, but sometimes ancient joker will ask for a suit that isn't in lud's deck. The smeared joker (the one he skipped) makes it so hearts and diamonds count as the same suit, and clubs and spades count as the same suit, which would've solved the problem. plus it gives +10 mult cuz it's a holographic. instead he skips this, sells the ancient joker and gets a pair card instead 😐 plus i also think getting rid of the burnt joker wasnt the best move. I would've sold The Family (the negative joker) just for cash for rerolls to get planets or tarots cuz it literally does nothing in his deck. Also maybe sell Shortcut? for extra space for the Smeared Joker. It makes straight flushes easier and give 1.5x multiplier from polychrome but Ancient Joker will do that many times over when in conjunction with the Smeared Joker, plus you'd be discarding Flushes to the Burnt Joker anyways so i figure by that point in the run Flushes would've been levelled up to like 12 or 13 and would've given a better score than Straight Flushes anyways. had to rant cuz i literally lost it when he skipped on the smeared joker.
I think Datto would be awesome to have as a guest or on unpaid intern! He’s been streaming for like 10-12 years playing destiny but has been moving into variety content. Very funny and great vibes.
If you're worried about trying to memorize different flushes and straights just so you know I beat the game off of just pairs and 3 of a kind because I had jokers that complemented each other with multipliers along with giving a multiplier for hearts. The best joker is the one that retriggers the last joker/hand played
I’ve been waiting so patiently for him to play this. I knew it would be a super auto pets kinda game for the vod channel. I hope to catch him do this live soon!
Lud having 7/8 joker slots at the end while also having the debt joker is so funny. Literally not using 2 joker slots. Also skipped the bull joker which would’ve given 100+ chips every hand
Or when he skipped on smeared joker when he had ancient joker, which would have removed the 1 in 2 chance it was worthless. I feel he threw that last ante hard because he had something to go do.
I came to this video hoping that a professional gambler could use some strategies that I could copy to win my first game of balatro, only to realize he uses the exact same strategy as me
I might be wrong, but debuffed just means you don’t get the extra chips scored from each card played right? So wouldn’t it have still been possible with straight flushes?
I can't believe someone asked for Datto for unpaid intern (31:48). That would be awesome! And it would help him a lot too, since he's been doing content for like 10 years, but has been recently pushing outside of his bubble into variety content.
my first run with the boys new account i won. and like it was not really close. we reloaded after the first set so it was a fresh seed and my spade flushes at the end are going for 400000 and it will infinitely growth. two jokers are my decks bread and butter im so addicted i just found out about it from a friend today
lol sent here right after luds new video where the whole purpose of the video is to say this game isnt about gambling and it auto plays this one next and the very first thing he says it this is a game about gambling lmao
ooh your smarter than the streamer, well done! yknow he probably just played super casually off stream to get a jist of things and isn’t super analysing the game like we are watching yt videos and playing ourselves. chill on him, was a great entertaining video
@genarocarranza9 i mean i feel like when you a person who averages playing video games on stream like 8 hrs a day, playing anything off stream at all makes it a big deal. So maybe he has done like 4 runs total off stream, but thats still a frick ton under the circumstances.
@@TheUltimateEmo I mean he just uploaded a vídeo with a balatro thumbnail and just played for 10 minutes... He's clearly trying to clickbait and farm the clout of the game to stay relevan with the meta but doing the minimum effort
fortunately for folks like you, there is literally an "unlock all" button in the menus because the unlocking system is just there to give players some goals and direction and ease them into the game by not overwhelming them with too many choices.
The title was changed to “I Love This Game” as of writing this comment. For context for anyone reading this, the old title was “I Love Gambling (Balatro)”
it just doesn't look that fun, i like poker, i like roguelights, i even like card game roguelights like slay the spire, but this just looks a bit boring.
Ludwig was watching NL play Balatro on set during Unpaid Intern filming. He's truly lost in the sauce.
NL is some of the best content ever
@@porkyorcy1715 Northernlion is the MF DOOM of streamers, a highly respected streamer outside of the mainstream who nearly every streamer adores.
For sure. NL is a legend and Balatro is basically the new Super Auto Pets for him now
Are you telling me that “Northernlion: Your Streamers Favorite Streamer (part 1)”
Based
My favorite part of this stream is when Lud said “I’m not a straight kinda guy- uh…” and chat was all “BEEN SAYIN”
Flush build is the London System of Balatro
it's actually crazy governments are trying to change the rating of this game to 18+ for gambling. There's literally no gambling lmao
it’s literally all about gambling
@@brandonchin9873 please explain

@@brandonchin9873it's a card game. You don't gamble any money, you try to get score. Big difference.

You really only notice these things in hindsight and not in the moment, bro just wasnt thinking/reading carefully
ancient joker can pick any suit, even if you don't have them so it's very inconvenient, only really good way to play it is to have a lot of wild cards
I too am flushpilled unfortunately. I can't fucking stop
Building off of a timeless game. How can we ever stop?
the way i stopped was becoming mimepilled
but now i cant stop forcing making my entire deck steel cards
I know flushes are ass long term but I cant help myself when I see that damn blackboard joker, I got demons in my head
I have been straightpilled since I got the Telescope voucher for the first time
I think Datto would be awesome to have as a guest or on unpaid intern! He’s been streaming for like 10-12 years playing destiny but has been moving into variety content. Very funny and great vibes.
I watched like 3 NL let’s plays of this game and was confused. But Ludwig somehow makes it so easy to follow and understand
Coming from Mogul Mail, that first description of the game is unfortunate.
I thought the same thing
Balatro is like the middle point between SAP and slay the spire

Been playing this game for months, it’s gotten a lot better now with the full release
Mogul Mail: BALATRO DOES NOT CONTAIN GAMBLING!!!
Ludwig: Balatro is about my favorite thing, gambling
I’ve been waiting so patiently for him to play this. I knew it would be a super auto pets kinda game for the vod channel. I hope to catch him do this live soon!
Lud having 7/8 joker slots at the end while also having the debt joker is so funny. Literally not using 2 joker slots. Also skipped the bull joker which would’ve given 100+ chips every hand
Or the fact he sold space joker early when he’s playing one hand 😂
Or when he skipped on smeared joker when he had ancient joker, which would have removed the 1 in 2 chance it was worthless.
I feel he threw that last ante hard because he had something to go do.
I came to this video hoping that a professional gambler could use some strategies that I could copy to win my first game of balatro, only to realize he uses the exact same strategy as me
If you have the joker that makes it a single club becomes hearts + checkerd deck and get lucky IT WILL BE ALL HEARTS(correct me if I'm wrong)
he in fact, did a election watch party 37:00
I might be wrong, but debuffed just means you don’t get the extra chips scored from each card played right? So wouldn’t it have still been possible with straight flushes?

dude respect for giving credit to aliensrock he's a cool dude
Roguelite is when you unlock helpful things roguelike is just a straight restart with unlockable items id say this is closer to a roguelike

0:00 you were talking about the RUclips into it wasn’t edited out perfectly
why didnt he win after ante 8? was there a joker or voucher im unaware of
he did use a voucher that pushed him back an ante at one stage yep. and after he beat the ante 8 boss he clicked endless mode to keep playing.
When was this stream? I can't see it on the main channel. Was it part of the privated stream that he said he'd make public again but never did?
Wait Ludwig and Atrioc are friends again? That’s wild after what happened
1:17:14 this card wouldve helped with the Ancient Joker problem 😔
he was off that gummy this stream god damn
Im i confused cause i never played poker?
Please stream this again!!! 🙏🏻
pls pls pls marry me
You skipped "Ride the buss"? that was a huge mistake
I have play 22 hours over the last 5 days.
so glad you mentioned @aliensrock, he works so hard on his content and should be watched by more people
More balatro!

wheres the speed run timer, jesus christ dude.

Why doesn’t he think about anything?
He’s deadass just buying whatever. This is insane to watch! Bros just bad af cause he doesn’t read the cards.
For an “obsession” he knows nothing about this game.
this is pog
smeared joker would have sent the second run to the moon with ancient joker but he skipped it
Gambling AND inconsistentcy
yo
Now lets see the valorant content right after!
