Plays like the opening joker 50/50 are why I watch this channel. That reason alone makes you the best Balatro player.
He let the cards decide because it is less reading. And as Olexa fans, we can’t read.
Nice plays
It was optimal
Except he could have sold the Joker he didn't want before using Hex.
49:00 So a card can have only have one Seal, Edition and Enhancement at a time. Seals are obvious. Editions are the Holo, Poly and Foil (and negative, but that's only for Jokers). The Enhancements are the tarot modifications: Stone, Steel, Gold, Glass, Bonus, Multi and Wild.
Just a side note, you can have negative consumables via legendary Joker Perkeo. (Niche sort of thing, so understandable to not include in a simple explanation.)
@@OmikronTitan Yeah just didn't wanna spoil as of yet unseen jokers
I feel like drawing a Negative playing card should result in drawing an additional card that hand, as though you had a +1 hand size for that hand specifically. Feels like an interesting and worthwhile tradeoff for a rare condition that would also disallow foil, holo, or poly. I have no idea how you'd get a Negative playing card outside of a standard pack, but maybe that one Spectral card could give it to you. Or a new Joker could transform a played card, like Trading card, or something. "If last discard in a round is a single card, gives it Negative edition and returns it to your hand."
@@malcolmw121Or if you really want to go crazy, it could mean you can have 1 extra card per hand. Allowing that to create more illegal poker hands would be too much (since you’d technically be able to get up to 12 or so of a kind under the right circumstances and that would need a ridiculous number of planet cards). Instead, it could just be scored if it fits in (either fits in the straight, matches the flush, or matches the rank of the full house or 5 of a kind).
Lucky is also a tarot modification, but that one is forgettable
perfect intro to a video with that title
Something i learned after actually playing balatro myself.
the game is WAY harder than it looks. Out of 40-50 runs ive won ONE.
It truly is!
It's extremely easy to lose 3 out of 4 games, if not more, even if you're a "pro" of which there are maybe none BTW. However, speaking of pro Balatro, some of the NLSS had a Balatro tourney hosted by Apollo aka Dumbdog the other day, and it was super cool, I highly recommend.
i think you just might be bad… sorry
Can conform. Bought it recently and hooooly shiiiiiit its harder than expected. Got Maniac Joker my 3rd run and missed the very last blind by like.... 15k out of 300k. So close but so far
Thank you for your talk at the beginning of the video. People get so wrapped in certain things, they forget the point of playing video games. To have fun. If you're not having fun, then maybe video games are not for you anymore. Thank you so much for all of your Balatro videos! Always a joy to watch and see what will happen!
Fuck playing optimally
Olexa i love you
the silly builds are just *chefs kiss*
at the end you were wondering if the x2 was better than the +mult from the Fortune Teller. The way you can tell is by looking at your total mult before the xMults start getting applied. So if you're adding more than twice the mult at the point fortune teller gets applied than its effectively greater than a x2 mult. The same goes for chips for that matter. If your hand makes 300 chips, but the bull add 300 chips, that's effectively the same as a x2 mult. Or, if it adds 150 chips, that would be the same as a x1.5 mult.
I think at the time you sold the fortune teller it was slightly better, but by the end the x2 was better as you added planet cards and things like that.
Olexa you're the best. 😂 Keep doing the wonky interesting builds! The wonkier the build the more satisfying it is when you end up winning.
Good to see you read the comments man, keep having fun with the game. No need to worry about playing optimally every time.
Can I just say that I love the balatro content. People don't know that it's okay to have fun, and that's fine, just have fun olaxa.
Based Olanky Intro, Infinite is Overrated
In MTG terms, you're a Johnny, but some of the viewers want you to be a Spike. Don't ever change!
I got my second win today, with the gold deck. I had the vampire and did a flush build but I managed to get the vampire joker to 6.4X mult. I also have to say balatro is not an easy game, you make it look really easy, I spent an hour trying to get a win with the black deck on red stake, and I kept losing early. But man even when you don't make the wisest decision you still end up winning, so congrats on being good at balatro
The black deck early game is just awful. I think even Tyler would struggle. I try to play greedy/max value; for the black deck my playstyle hurts me because I lose a lot early trying to save money for the future.
Black deck is rough early game. You earn money and until you have 6 good jokers you don’t see any benefit of the deck
Same, I have yet to win with black deck, and had a frustrating 6 tries or so last night with it.
Gold might be the best/easiest/most consistent of all the "base" decks.
Still trying to win on the black deck too. I was so proud finally beating the green deck, only to find out there was a worse deck waiting for me.
this was fun! this run is an excellent example of why i like how steep balatros endless scaling is
I enjoy the balatro series very much. Thanks Olexa ❤
olexa don’t let the optimal andy’s get to you we don’t watch for you to play optimally we watch bc we enjoy your content keep it up brother
Finally a TH-camr saying that they don’t give a shit to what commenters say and just do what they want to do
23:56 not noticing the straight flush in the deck was truly an Olenky moment
We needed 1000 points, any hand would work. I wasn’t even paying attention to it
@@OlexaYT teue, just teasing a bit. You can't be the Balatro master of TH-cam and get away with it so easily
I agree with you, a lot of people only want to see optimal builds and don't consider that having some of the more silly builds might be more fun, even if you won't always get a win or reach insane heights in endless. The reason why I like rogue-likes is because I want to experiment with many different builds and try out all kinds of crazy strategies. But I guess some people like to suck out the fun out of everything and are only satiesfied if they can find the most optimal way to play a game.
I really wish balatro displayed the score as you select cards/rearrange jokers. I almost constantly play with a calculator which is annoying.
53:55 hermitcraft reference lets go, season 10 is kinda fire so far
Hey Olexa Just a heads up! When you order by suits it uses the same order as displayed when you hover over your deck. So it is easy at times to figure out what suit a card is even when it’s flipped just by the fact that if sometime is lower than the card next to it, and lower than the card to the right of it. (As long as there’s not a suit in between the order) you know it has to be the same suit as the one to the left. Hopefully my explanation didn’t make it more confusing, if you do it yourself it’s pretty easy once you know to look for it.
Balatro is like the perfect game to not overcalculate and just enjoy, keep up the content :D
You should consider putting the high contrast cards setring on, it makes clubs light blue and it makes it way easier to differentiate them from spades. Loving the content, keep it up
A simply Legendary Sip in hydration
Anybody who gets mad that Olexa doesn't play optimally has never seen an Olexa video. He plays for fun, not just to win
Endless is a victory lap, showing off for the camera, not for beating.
Love your builds not being the same every run.
This was an unhinged good time. And then it was perfection when the game started you off with Blackboard
Congrats on the high score, cool legendary joker.
That intro was awesome haha I respect it you do what makes you happy. We are guests in your experience. Just here for the ride so you do you :D
For one, I think you're crazy wacky runs are awesome.
Balatro University actually found an end to the "endless" lol, which is very goofy to think about
I had a killer high card run the other day. It was awesome, very unconventional. And I agree that the wacky builds are more fun and feel a whole lot better to win than standard cut and dry run of the mill games
This was great, you so need to unlock more legendary Jokers
Olexa forgetting to move blueprint several times and commenting on it was great. Som'in I'd prob do as well to be fair XD
Thank you for playing different build to have fun. That is why i folliw and watch your video ! Keep up the good work 😊
Comments: "You sniveling fool, at timestamp you could have done X instead! absolute idiot you chump!"
Me: oh man did olenky throw?
Olexa: *beats that blind in one hand anyway*
That was a great run. I love the Rocket card so much, so good to see it pulling its weight for you, too!
I also can't wait for this game to get so many updates and new stuff added, I hope they add an Olexa hoodie joker
Win condition in balatro? I only recognize ante 39 as a true win
Taking diamonds wasn't even that bad in that situation + is fun
but the joke writes itself - the intro is: he's played so much Balatro he is becoming the Joker
We’re funmaxing for sure
Dude olenky got real for a minute
Waaauuuww.. I'm just here to get entertained by olenky, and then see if he fails spectacularly or win hilariously 😂.. all is entertainment, and all in good fun 😊
The spontainousness (which is totally a word, don't question it) is why I enjoy these videos!
Just one question that has appeared several times, at 19:51, why spend down to $20 before using the Hermit? Is there a reason for it? I thought the hermit can be used at any time as long as you're on $20+? I'm just trying to figure out if I'm missing something when I'm playing myself ^^'
i mean, if you get a legendary joker Perkeo, that copies a random consumable, and buy cryptid spectral card using the ghost deck, and stack them a bunch of times on a steel card with red seal on it, you kind of reach a score the game can't handle and just gives you infinite after thinking about it for 10 minutes
Why do you spend money before using the hermit? It doesn't matter at all if you're at 20 or above no? You still get 20 from it. I'm genuinely curious if I'm missing something here.
There’s really no good reason tbh
Mult can go on polychrome and foil/holographic btw.
We love ya olexa, keep up the good work
Your unique builds is the best thing, so yeah, great intro man :) Not all of us are haters, at least!
Sounds like someone is getting a hug 🫂🍪
I like your fun wacky builds, screw the haters
That extra slot voucher basically makes re-rolls 50% more valuable and adds another voucher that adds 25% value ontop.
Not even looking at Cavendish kinda made me sad NGL
Will you move the damn joker 😂❤
Because you give us permission, you can move the joker, even while it’s calculating the numbers
The only gripe i have with your playstyle is not buying the vouchers because once you upgrade them once they're out of the pool, after 10 blanks you get 1 joker slot. ^-^
enjoyed the intro, its what i want to see too, have fun, stay kool
Olexa should get his own joker card that swaps between joker effects every discard
That’s actually like, anti what I like haha. I hate random effects in games
Love your attitude approaching any game. It is fun and ends up wackier! Ignore the backseatgamers🎉
I haven't even bothered with endless mode yet, I'm happy to just take my win and start a new run
twas watching a video about game dev and found out about this killer looking conways game of life roguelike coming out this year called Yawnoc. Would love too see you play it when it comes out!
Skoottie's naneinf run was on ghost deck and that was something crazy❤😶🌫️
i like watching your because you do you
genuine question, why do you spend all your available money before using hermit, trying to get as close to 20$?
using the hermit with more than 20$ will always give you 20$, no matter if you have 21$ or a billion, so its the same value
Newbie question. How does raised fist work exactly? You get a mult based on the last card?
How do you make it to the end of *ENDLESS* ?? lol
I watch your videos because they are relatively relaxing and chill
ante 38 is winning endless mode
That's not fun to watch.
But you are. ❤
“Raised fist me”😂
i love this guy.
I love this guy too
the blueprint yorick is straight up unethical my man
X25 mult with two jokers is definitely balanced dont worry
3:13
Isn't Straight better at 81x4 instead of Flush 75x4?
53:55 Hermitcraft reference
To add to your opening rant, only trying for optimal strategies is a good way to lose balatro. At higher stakes you have to make do. Sure blueprint can take you deep in to endless. But you have to get blueprint. And you have to get a joker it pairs well with
brother ignoring the ability isn't "not optimizing" it's called just wasting a joker slot, tho the blackboard run you were kinda forced into diamonds cuz 2 unlucky spectral cards
If you win the run, it’s an effective strategy. Full stop, no further questions asked no further statements gained
53:56 i see someone's watching hermitcraft
🫡
hey buddy can we get high contrast cards?
Just a causal X25 multi mult on the end of the ol joker hand...
👍
getting 3x overkill on the ante 8 boss soley because x25 mult exists just shows how good blueprint+any high mult/chip card
it was a level 3 pair
neverchange blueprint
So with the blueprint I'm upset because you moved it to raised fist after it was on the bull then you moved it back to the bull
Can you explain why you always want to use gold before using Hermit? When you have $40, the cards gives $20, when you have $25 it also gives $20.
Yes but it feels more like free money when you spend in that shop. It’s more of a self control thing on my point. If I pop it immediately, I’ll spend it all in that shop and realistically the later shops provide more value to me so I should save my money for those
Rocket goes to the moon.
You ever thought bout turning on high contrast cards
Yeah I really don’t like how it looks haha
Missing the straight flush @24:01 😭
Completely irrelevant, any hand we played got us there
Chill out, just leave your "more please" comment and keep watching Tyler do wacky things
Edit: that jump from 14m on a boss to 300m on a small was wild, an amazing run today 😂
Yo can you please play emberward again? Loved that game so much
Never had my blood pressure rise so high watching a video. This seed has a potential to be in the trillions or even higher
Did you listen to the f-ing intro or not brother
Would you move the damn water for once in your life?
Should have went for 5 of a kind after using cryptid
Should've, could've, but did it really matter? Pretty sure the 4oak had more value due to the negative he had. But again, didn't matter in any way did it?
Move the jonker!!! (Def not for algorythm)
23:51 why not use the straight flush?
Because who cares, we needed 1000 chips lol
@@OlexaYT lol, fair
Very good run and I really don’t wanna hate, but I think you could have spent the money got since you sold the bull. But very good video, love ya
Listen up folks… ante 8 is a win.
Try the Splatoon 3 rougelike please
also unrelated third comment but will you check out the Ziggys Labyrinth demo?
i dunno if its the kinda game for your channel but it looks like something youd enjoy
Its odd that you said turning your steel Aces into mults was the wrong play when realistically you want to be playing them and not keeping them in hand, so you weren't getting value from the steel anyway!
Ehh. You still want steel cards. They’re significantly stronger than mult cards
That intro, so freaking based
