YOU GOT: CARD SHEILD Upon use, grant yourself a random card based shield that grants various powers upon breaking. Only one of these shield can be active at a time. High Card - Grants one shield. Incredibly tough. Upon breaking heal up to 30 HP. Three of a kind - Grants 3 shields. Upon a card breaking, it homes in on an enemy dealing the equivalent to a charge shot Flush - 5 Card Shield, upon all breaking deal light damage to all things on screen currently. Full House - 5 Card shield. When all cards are broken, regain a bit of energy. Straight Flush - 5 Card shield, upon breaking deal damage to all enemies on screen and gain back some health and energy.
@The_Dev_175 I definitely wouldn't be annoyed by that Leaf Shield clone, sure it's RNG but the effects are largely good enough to just keep uptime on it until it runs out
Balatro Man's main gimmick is that he shoots out up to five giant cards for a poker hand, which triggers an attack based on the hand's strength when they disappear, and Mega Man needs to destroy one card to reduce the hand's value as much as possible.
I like the idea of a secret joker bossfight, starting off with a few hundred damage but after each turn, they pull out a credit card, a bus ticket, a few joker cards and a napkin out of their pocket, they grab a marker and start scribbling on some playing cards, eventually doing 4.7 unquadragintillion damage to the player
Start: "Let's get straight to it. Get ready to be flushed out!" Phase 2: "Looks like you're quick on the draw. Time to up the ante!" Phase 3: "Enough joking around. I'm going all in!" Defeat: "How could I have been so blind to think I could win? You prevailed even though the odds were stacked against you." Victory: "I hope that this victory didn't leave a chip on your shoulder!" Amazing remix. Wow.
the fact that the most watched portion of this video is the end tells you how good this remix is. literally everyone is listening the whole way thru haha
i was freaking out why i knew this was the balatro theme but it sounded off and then i realize you put the theme in standard time and not 7/4 😭 this is awesome though :>
I try to not go SUPER hard into a theme that can be screwed by a Boss Blind until I've managed to grab the reroll voucher. But, sometimes it can't be helped.
Name - Joker Man Description - Made to be a poker dealer in casinos, this Robot Master likes to spend its free time creating card towers. Weakness - Mirror Shield Weapon - Throwing Card Acts like Magic Card but will instead explode on impact. Is needed to find the hidden Proto Man areas. Boss Battle - Will jump around and throw cards at Mega Man. When Joker Man shouts “52 CARD PICKUP!” they will jump in the air and deal a barrage of cards requiring Mega Man to slide or deflect with the Mirror Shield. Quotes Before Battle “Act like a Texan and hold it!” “You? Winning? Hah! I call your bluff!” During Battle “52 CARD PICKUP!” “Deal with this!” After Battle “A ROYAL FLUSH!!!” “I FOLD!!!”
I wonder if it would be possible to create a Balatro mod that switches the background music to this whenever you have a Square Joker in your inventory.
sadly since the time signature for this is 4/4 instead of 7/4, it would screw with the rest of the music if it was still in the og time signature then 200% it would work
lmao i thought you just made it less stuttery by just speeding up, but as another person commented this in 8/8! no wonder it sounds so normal! tbh this is a really cool cover on even just a conceptual level and the execution makes this a certified banger. it sounds like battle music from a hypothetical balatro that's a more traditional roguelike deckbuilder. instant sub tbh
WOW, this is amazing! :D Love the energy in this, as well as the ways it keeps the original theme intact while doing its own wild and wonderful things~
I love the beat. And for some reason i a silly little idea for his boss fight: When the fight starts, all of your specials weapons are turned off. Opening the menu will show your special weapons locked behind certain suits (if you have no special weapons, there's nothing there except his face), and in order to re-activate said weapons, you need to build up a hand by destroying the cards he throws as his weapons that have suits you want/need. Destroyed cards will be displayed on the top of the screen, as if they were the cards you wish to play in normal Balatro. Hitting him will play your hand, and will get a bonus effect on your weapons based on said hand. However, there is a hard limit to this. After 52 destroyed cards, there would be a spike in attack speed and damage, making it harder and harder to deal with.
Balatro, but each card in Jimbo's hand represents the SOUL of one of the humans that fell into the Underground, and you seem like just the perfect fit for his new seven-card play he's been cooking up.

Nope!
This was brought to you by the national wheel of fortune association.
the fact that this un-screwed the time signature is messing with me
i was trying to figure out what it made it so uncanny (complimentary)
But now I'm wondering what this would sound like if you removed the last beat of every other measure to restore it...
more like screwed it
@@demidemonym it wouldn't completely sound the same if you just flat out cut the beats but yeah, you could do something similar and it'd work
@@VerbDoesStuff the original is in 7/4.
if that’s not screwed up then i don’t know what is
When Jimbo says it’s all Balatrover for you and your run
Then he crawls out of your computer monitor.

I'M CARD SMART
MAKES ME MORE INTELLIGENT
Very smart idea to use the high contrast color cards to represent all four suits with just a scant few pixels each.
I've exclusively played with the High Contrast colours since I learned it was an option. I like the blue Clubs.
Finally, John Balatro
It's JIMBO Balatro, for you!
James B. "Jimbo" Joker
Balatro Man's main gimmick is that he shoots out up to five giant cards for a poker hand, which triggers an attack based on the hand's strength when they disappear, and Mega Man needs to destroy one card to reduce the hand's value as much as possible.
That's genius
YOU'RE SO SMART
High card is a single shot
Pair is shots from both sides, 3oak is shooting and angles, 2 pair is many of pairs attack, 4oak is 3oak and 2pair together
Bro just threw a flush five at me, I'm completely cooked
I love this because its one of the few Balatro arranges to keep the wobbly tremolo, which i feel like is so important to the vibe of the song
YEAH!!!
I like the idea of a secret joker bossfight, starting off with a few hundred damage but after each turn, they pull out a credit card, a bus ticket, a few joker cards and a napkin out of their pocket, they grab a marker and start scribbling on some playing cards, eventually doing 4.7 unquadragintillion damage to the player
John Balatro was such a hard boss fight, but his theme is a banger.
hee hee hee, Mega Man! looks like it's Balatrover for you!
HIS NAME IS JIMBO!!!! 🗣🗣🗣🗣
HE IS

As a Mega Man fan with a gambling addiction this makes me unfathomably happy
Start: "Let's get straight to it. Get ready to be flushed out!"

Phase 3: "Enough joking around. I'm going all in!"
Defeat: "How could I have been so blind to think I could win? You prevailed even though the odds were stacked against you."
Victory: "I hope that this victory didn't leave a chip on your shoulder!"

Oops All 6's just increased the chances of me replaying this song again
Love the use of the high contrast cards in the sprite art 🎨 👌
This is a peak Mega Man boss concept. Amazing song!
I just saw this randomly in my recomendations and decided to play cause "why not?", and I'm very satisfied with my decision, this track is great🙂
Jimbo Man: Special Weapon is High Card
He's a blueprint joker. He just gives you magic card again
Can’t wait to see one of the gaming video essay ytbrs I watch use this in an intro or something. Dude this remix is so SO SO SO GOOD!!!
Bonus points for using high contrast colored cards
'You're looking flushed, Mega Man! I haven't even called on my aces, and you're already about to fold!'
i was freaking out why i knew this was the balatro theme but it sounded off and then i realize you put the theme in standard time and not 7/4 😭 this is awesome though :>
dude, i can feel this actively searing itself into my brain, good stuff my man
One of the best versions of the balatro theme I've heard
the way you changed the tempo and timing of the melody slightly itches me in such a right way :DDDD 0:37
This what plays in my head when i see THE PLANT during my Triboulet, Hanging Chad, Photograph run
I try to not go SUPER hard into a theme that can be screwed by a Boss Blind until I've managed to grab the reroll voucher. But, sometimes it can't be helped.
We're sweeping the game awards with this one 🗣🔥
Name - Joker Man
Description - Made to be a poker dealer in casinos, this Robot Master likes to spend its free time creating card towers.
Weakness - Mirror Shield
Weapon - Throwing Card
Acts like Magic Card but will instead explode on impact. Is needed to find the hidden Proto Man areas.
Boss Battle - Will jump around and throw cards at Mega Man. When Joker Man shouts “52 CARD PICKUP!” they will jump in the air and deal a barrage of cards requiring Mega Man to slide or deflect with the Mirror Shield.
Quotes
Before Battle
“Act like a Texan and hold it!”
“You? Winning? Hah! I call your bluff!”
During Battle
“52 CARD PICKUP!”
“Deal with this!”
After Battle
“A ROYAL FLUSH!!!”
“I FOLD!!!”
fun fact. the basic jokers name is canonically "JIMBO"
as a texan i do hold it
Strange hearing this song in 4/4, but man is this a bop!
Jester Man’s stage better be exclusively references otherwise I ain’t buying (this is really freaking good btw)
I cannot get over how incredible this is
when you manage to assemble all 5 legendary jokers and your run becomes MEGA.
This remix is clean, that sprite is even cleaner
now it is jimbos time to send us to the shadow realm
I wonder if it would be possible to create a Balatro mod that switches the background music to this whenever you have a Square Joker in your inventory.
Given that Jimball does exactly that with Funkytown in Cryptid, it's definitely possible.
@@waffledoctor87and there's a breakcore version of the main theme that plays when you're holding an exotic joker
Where @@shellularity
sadly since the time signature for this is 4/4 instead of 7/4, it would screw with the rest of the music

Man, i didnt know Jimbo was MagicMan's long lost cousin.
Also, dope N163 arrangement !!🔥🔥🔥
wake up we have the jimbo boss battle theme
this video actually introduced me to balatro 2 months ago
sad that balatro didnt win game of the year but here we are
This is absolutely phenomenal!!! Wow! This is definitely the best remix I've heard so far, hands down!
lmao i thought you just made it less stuttery by just speeding up, but as another person commented this in 8/8! no wonder it sounds so normal! tbh this is a really cool cover on even just a conceptual level and the execution makes this a certified banger. it sounds like battle music from a hypothetical balatro that's a more traditional roguelike deckbuilder. instant sub tbh
This fight would go so hard tho, lowkey should be a boss in MegaMan Maker
I've played so much balatro in the past month and a half that I hear the base music in my sleep sometimes. This cover's so fucking sick
Funny lancer man has done it again
Unbelievably well done.
“Cash in your chips Mega Man, you didn’t bring the Ante!!”
This is so good I need this on spotify
This is up there with the big band and jazz covers, going beyond just recreating the original and actually transforming it.
banger sprite
Been here since... God, before Emission, even, glad to see you still posting.
This should be the music for a rivals of aether balatro stage
Now THAT! IS retro.
I love this, it sounds like a shovel knight song
RUclips algorithm did real good on sending me this one. Absolute banger!
Impressive, sounds really good with the modified time signature.
~ ACES HIGH ~
we need this in Spotify
Something about seeing the waveforms for each insturment and how they correlate to the master mix is so fun to watch, sick remix!!
Based-latro, Jokerpilled, Gamblecore even 🃏
This remix goes hard
I know this is a good mix cause I internally heard "Ready?" in my head at 3 seconds in, Very nice!
This is so good wtf???
i fucking adore the music and the robot master sprite so much, amazing
WOW, this is amazing! :D Love the energy in this, as well as the ways it keeps the original theme intact while doing its own wild and wonderful things~
need a 7/4 version
As Balatro has a Vampire Survivors Crossover you've made the reverse happen, really nice work!
I summon pot of greed
I love the beat. And for some reason i a silly little idea for his boss fight:

After 52 destroyed cards, there would be a spike in attack speed and damage, making it harder and harder to deal with.
The sprite, the song. Feels like a WIP Rivals of Aether mod
People who wear hats like this are 49035% more likely to go "Eee ee ee-ee ee ee-ee ee"

HOLY SHIT THIS GOES HARD??????????
Dude this absolutely rocks.
waiting for the eventuality of someone making a Jimbo MEGALOVANIA
Balatro, but each card in Jimbo's hand represents the SOUL of one of the humans that fell into the Underground, and you seem like just the perfect fit for his new seven-card play he's been cooking up.
Sounds awesome!
i wonder if FamiStudio was fun to learn
This is my favourite version of the theme, bar none.
THIS IS FIRE HELL YEAH
It's 4/4 now which hurts just a little, but it hurts good
that sprite art is also really cool!!
Balatro collab with Sea of Stars to be the optional boss will be lit🔥 (the themed is circus too)
What Clown Man should always have been
i hope you know this is really really good
Definitely giving hidden Superboss vibes
with balatro on phone, the end times are upon us. may jimbo have mercy upon us all.
this is dope, great job!
That pixel Jimbo looks like it could be a custom fighting character for Rivals of Aether
Oh this….
…this is beautiful
Absolutely awesome job with this, killer remix!
"Ante Up... You fooled and folded your last hand!"
this is the balatro where a tortured jp artist made 150 anime jokers
