@@Josephmother584They're built-in challenges, 20 total, ranging from "No money, except from Eggs" to "No jokers". Honestly, I find them more interesting than stake difficulty increases.
polychrome dagger is 100 mult plus base times 1.5 so a little more than 150. BUT since you have 2 daggers the 2nd dagger is considerably more than 150 mult because it adds the 100 then multiplies the mult by 1.5 with the first dagger mult already added 25:38 . I made this novel of a comment all just to say….his dagger is more than 150 mult lol

Please never change the if you like the video, like the video, enjoy. It's that level of basic ask and melancholy that resonates with my millennial soul.
Riff-Raff is one of my favorites to see early, even in a normal run. It can really provide a sense of direction early - and I learned today that it can make Jokers with a non-Normal Edition (Polychrome, Foil, Holo, or Negative). Abstract Joker is pretty powerful with Negative. And is generically good anyway. Riff-Raff usually gives me three or four Jokers before I wind up selling it. Seems good with Dagger, though!
With all the jokers getting constantly made, I have to keep pausing to try and read what they all do to then see how I would have played them. If i get to the point where I know all these cards by sight, I want to rewatch this and judge the decisions in real time.
Some editors on other channels will put the scroll over text as an overlay, it's nice when the streamer knows the game really well and would be a waste of time trying to explain for the people watching the ~30 min version. Haven't seen it done for this game yet though.
So when you had the 2 daggers, why could you not split them with jokers inbetween and have them both eat the cards? Or am I missing a mechanic or something?
One dagger got old and tired of killing so it retired then its dagger son took over. The dagger daddy vowed to never kill its dagger son while the dagger son continues the dagger daddies legacy of killing
I had a great challenge run going with the ceremonial dagger+madness, which was going great and basically a guaranteed win, then I forgot to buy a joker for dagger to eat so it destroyed my madness and i lost. I was so mad at myself lol
Ah yes, selling riff-raff and using judgment tarot and NOT getting the card riff-raff back immediatly is weird to me since thrice i have sold riff-raff and used judgment just to thrice get riff-raff back immediately. once with cartomancer too, so i honestly dont sell a card to use judgement anymore.
Is the game actually playable for people or does it actually take a lot of skill been thinking about it but seeing these videos make it look overwhelming
I'm no elite gamer and only have about 50 hours in the game, and I've won several runs. There's a lot of randomness, so quite a few runs just fizzle out, but it's very painless to start a run over, and you pick the basics up really quickly. I've had a lot of fun.
Idk how people say "I have only 50 hours" like its required. I won my 3d run, so about on second hour. The game is really straight forward if you take your time to read the descriptions, it looks overwhelming because streamers do not read them, but when you play it's easy
Pretty sure this is 2x (4x is the max) and he has said he keeps it at 2x so its not super slow but still slow enough for newer players/viewers to keep up with whats happening. He did say he might go up to 4x once the game has been out a bit longer. (You can also watch at 2x speed for the gameplay to be 4x if you don’t mind his speech being 2x also).
I dont get why some jokers of the same archetype are so inconsistent when it comes to rules. Madness gains Xmult then destroys a joker, Knife destroys a joker then gains +Mult. Madness works when you dont have any other jokers, while Knife doesnt, making Madness objectively better. Yet both are the same rarity, Uncommon.
Madness is worse than dagger. For one, madness destroys a random joker so its basically only useable as a solo joker or if you have eternal jokers. Also, dagger not working when other jokers arent present makes sense because it gains mult off of sell value, and if theres not a joker theres no sell value
It might seem that way, but xMult is not that useful all by itself, you have to really go out of your way to add glass and +4 mult to your cards and that kind of strategy gets countered hard by the "Play one hand" boss stake. The exception is black stake and above where you can find eternal jokers.
"You're cheaper than a reroll" has to hatch on but as an insult.
The Dagger Double is Eternal
Ante 0 is blinds of 100, 150, and 200 or something like that
Technically the blinds could also be 100 150 100 or 100 150 400 cause of certain boss blinds
@@PoetryCinquainI actually don’t think you could get the wall or the needle on ante 1, but yea the blinds are really small on ante 0

Excited to see you get to the later challenges; the second page is really quite a step-up in difficulty, especially the last 3 challenges.
Are these built in challenges or are they just seeded runs he finds from some other source?
@@Josephmother584 built in after you win with 5 different decks on base difficulty
@@Josephmother584seeded runs just let you repeat the random outcome of a normal run, they don’t add special rules like eternal pinned daggers.

Missed opportunity to have the title be The Eternal Akimbo Slice
Dagger might be double, but inevitably selling your possesions to sustain your habit is eternal
I was wondering if you could clone the dagger! Good to know!
I liked the challenges, I just wish there where a few more and harder challenges, but maybe i revisit the game if more come in the future
That's fun, I just got my first billion point hand with Chad, Blueprint, Baron, Acrobat and Photograph and finally got past ante 11.
riff raff on this run is so cool
02:50 I was just thinking abt how riff Raff would be rlly good and then it appeared omg
I wish he'd put a joker in between the two daggers...
I call it bAlatro, like italian word for dancing.
12:54 Could he have ‘fooled’ the ‘soul’ for a second legendary? Was it a misplay?
No, it's not a tarot card, despite appearing in tarot packs. It's classified as a spectral card.
I tried this the other night. Think I got to ante 7. I did beat 15 minute city by eating the face cards and getting the four card straight/flush joker
what happens when you put a dagger next to an eternal egg
Hieroglyph can set it to 0 and the boss blind is only 200 chips
So when you had the 2 daggers, why could you not split them with jokers inbetween and have them both eat the cards? Or am I missing a mechanic or something?
Maybe he forgot. I was thinking the same thing and it was frustrating lmao
The Wheel seems a lot lower chance than 1/4
One dagger got old and tired of killing so it retired then its dagger son took over. The dagger daddy vowed to never kill its dagger son while the dagger son continues the dagger daddies legacy of killing
Riff raff would go crazy
Edit: he got riff raff
ante 0 is a thing and the base chips is 100
Is ante -1 possible? Like yellow deck + hermit + voucher tag, could you get to an ante -1 boss?
@@Mysterious7352 no, Just like how you cant get lvl -1 on a played hand
Ceremonial Riff Raff- classic infinite money hack

Why did i just get a notif for this if its 5 days old
Ah yes, selling riff-raff and using judgment tarot and NOT getting the card riff-raff back immediatly is weird to me

why didn't you use fool to create second legendary joker ._.
Fool doesn't duplicate spectral cards.
Spoiler.
Nothing Happens....
Day 4 of asking what is the music in the intro
did you ever end up finding it?
12:28 wouldn't the fool have copied the Soul card? I'm crying that he didn't copy it or at least check if it could
Nope, it's a spectral card, fool only copies tarots. Soul just has a special rule that it can show up in tarot packs.
