Hey everyone! I'm super happy to announce that the first meaty balance patch for Balatro is now live for everyone! Thank you so much to everyone in the community that gave feedback during the public experimental beta. If you have been a beta tester, this version is functionally identical to 1.0.1e - but here are all the changes made to the game since 1.0.0n: - Updated version of Love2D (the engine) - this fixes an issue on Windows and Steam Deck causing poor/stuttery performance for some...
Focus on the jokers, NOT the hands. You can easily win the first few stakes with a high card build.
Also remember that cards are scored left-to-right, so chip jokers on the left, mult jokers on the right.
Card Sharp is a very powerful early joker, imo.
Actually, chip jokers can be wherever. The important thing is that any +Mult jokers are to the left of your xMult jokers.
