I was screaming when he put the red seal on the steel queen. I was like, you're never gonna play that card! Then I saw the steel effect trigger twice and my brain exploded.
Can someone please tell this man that when he draws cards face down he cant accurately see what cards are left in the deck he's driving me nuts with this
NL just so you know, especially with that much steel triggering before your jokers, your base mult becomes so high that brainstorm on the madness is like 10x your score where brainstorm on tarot joker is only like 1.1x your score. You would need to move brainstorm all the way to the right, and madness all the way to the left, which feels like massive opportunity cost, but thats just your monkey brain. Once your base mult is that high the principle of adding mult before multing you mult gets out scaled by just multing your mult an extra time (quadratic growth, effectively mult mult multing) Good run regardless. Probably would have only gone like 1-2 more antes with thst optimization. It just wasnt an e score type build
Additionally, if you are going to steel cards, steel the ones you aren't intending to play. Every time he steeled a queen I cringed. Oh my perfectionistic side really goes nuts with this game.
@@thevicar777 Eh, his steel game is not the worst. You want to duplicate cards you want to play and hold in hand cards you want to play, so working towards having only red seal steel versions of your playable cards isn't the worst.
@@thevicar777 Absolutely incorrect. It's one of his biggest and most common misplays is to steel unplayable cards, since you catch 22 yourself by either needing to discard your steels to actually draw your hand or hold your steels meaning you won't draw your hand.
@@alexcronin4082I don't think anyone is justified to judge an oversight if you have to bust out the calculator, much less a balatro calculator. (No hate, just for people reading your comment)
i pray for the opposite of such idea. as a matter of considerate opinion, ryan letourneau of northernlion shall continue play of the game balatro even after collecting every card of joker, perchance for a long time.

Would it have been slightly more optimal to move crazed joker left and keep brainstorm on the far right? You would miss out on the Tarot mult getting multed but it would still get 10x'd by brainstorm.
It would have been absurdly more optimal. His mult is already in the thousands by the time tarot activates, so it basically does nothing compared to a 11x mult
@@RagingAcid yeah that's true I just looked it up and wild 7's would work. Definitely the way to hunt for it. It's not really the best mult multer but could be worse. Also I tend to avoid wild cards a bit cause of the debuff blinds.
@@darthvaderbutwayshittier7054 Yeah, definitely not horrible- pretty easy to activate especially with wilds and 2x ain't bad. I usually am looking for something like a hologram though that scales higher, is easy to buff for most builds, and works on all hands without any limits.

Hi NL, thought you might want to know that cards with aura effects (foil etc.) can also have tarot enhancement on them. Not sure if you just missed it this run or didn't know

Yep huge misplay. Especially with how many red seal steel cards he had, the +150 mult or whatever Fortune Teller was producing was inconsequential
all i was thinking the whole run after brainstorm lol
Fortune teller was adding +150 to 1500 mult. x10 would have been +15k and then another x10 later. would have been huge
me too brother
Can someone please tell this man that when he draws cards face down he cant accurately see what cards are left in the deck he's driving me nuts with this

Would it have been slightly more optimal to move crazed joker left and keep brainstorm on the far right? You would miss out on the Tarot mult getting multed but it would still get 10x'd by brainstorm.
After the steel jokers get ya to 1900 mult, 10x-ing it twice is far better than adding 300 mult and 10x-ing it
It would have been absurdly more optimal. His mult is already in the thousands by the time tarot activates, so it basically does nothing compared to a 11x mult
please god tell me he moves the madness eventually
Literally never.
