@@Miguel-rh8yhYou kinda half-missed the point: Humans and machine learning algorithms both do that - the difference is humans can foresee some more obvious mistakes and avoid having to experience them to understand them - a machine will only learn after running head first into nearly every possible mistake. The joke is just that Eggman here is initially making many obvious mistakes that viewers may have already seen coming and would be tempted to comment about the fact that they wouldn't have fallen for 'that' issue. The egg does this because he's not thinking things through early like most gamers would have, he just guns it. But by the end it works out anyways and he's practically a god at the game. - Peak comment is peak because it summarized all of this beautifully as a niche metaphor.
46:50 for type A viewers - you can move the Blueprint joker so that it copies DNA on the first played hand, and then move it back to copy the vampire for the rest of the round
The most annoying thing about type A commenters is when they comment something that HE LITERALLY FIGURES OUT IN THE VIDEO. Like why are you complaining about something that HE FIGURES OUT???
They go commenting before watching the whole thing. And I get it, if a type A comment hatches in your brain, do you keep it there for 20 minutes and finish the video? I wouldn't.
That’s Tier 1 Type A observation, that wouldn’t have helped him anyway. Tier 2 is him not realizing Foils, Enhancements, and Seals can all stack and the vampire only steals enhancements Tier 3 is “he should have fished for the polychrome bonus sooner because you don’t have to proc DNA first thing every single hand” because he doesn’t even think of that until it’s a 1/100 draw.
Friendly Balatro tip: There are three different modifiers that can be applied to playing cards at the same time , enhancement ( gold, bonus, lucky, etc.), paper type (foil, holo, and poly), and seals (red, gold, blue, etc.). Adding any modifier to a card that already has that modifier type (e.g., adding lucky to a bonus card, both enhancements) will replace the previous modifier with the new one. On the other hand, adding a modifier to a card that has a different modifier type will only add the new modifier and keep the old modifier (e.g., adding foil to a bonus card, adding a paper type to an enhanced card). I hope this makes sense and helps. I mainly wrote this because I saw Ryan struggling with the concept of adding enhancements to his foil aces, which would work just fine.
@wingedfish1175 I assume he's referring to the ideal situation for making the highest score in one hand. The best enhancement that gives you the best chance to win or go the farthest probably depends on your jokers.
He was playing five of a kind though most of the time with his heart aces interspersed so it was actually fine. Also how many times did he choose to upgrade five of a kind over flush five? It's not like he was actively choosing to not upgrade flush five, if that shit doesn't show up, then you can't upgrade it. If there is something to get on his ass about it's not duplicating his polychrome ace because he thought it would get sucked off by the hemomancer, when polychrome is an edition and not an enhancement. But no one is talking about that because as usual, the comments don't know what the fuck is going on. NL, you're doing great. Don't listen to the haters king.

Couldn't he have just blueprinted the DNA he sold worst case? Also, shouldn't he have blueprinted DNA on those steel card plays once he picked it up? Or is blueprint incompatible? EDIT: He literally says this in the last couple minutes of the video, hahah. There's always something.
There is a lot to unpack in this video, but what grinds my gear the most is the Two "increase interest cap" vouchers that was bought for the deck that specifically does not earn interest!
@@bglamb He did, i heard "we dont need the extra money", more than i heard "this litterary has no effect exept cost us money" though. Love the run otherwise though!
What has happened is that he wasn't aware or simply didn't think that it doesn't improve his deck, but I have to say that buying it would still seem to me to be the right choice: he had money to spare and by buying it he takes it out of the pull, preventing it from coming out again later instead of something of interest.
I've been following Balatro and playing the demos till the wheels fell off. Now it's finally out, my wife can't peel me off the computer. Thankyou LocalThunk - you've made a masterpiece. The way they used the demos instead of early access just built the anticipation so much more. I love this cursed poker machine game so much

@@ZBTEproductions Idk that I could do it. This run only lasts today, unlocking a legendary joker for the collection lasts as long as I own my steam account.
I would have done it, sacrifice one of the helixes. you already have like 30 dup aces, that's more than enough to give up the second helix for and take legendary
I’m just now realizing he could have switched the blueprint to one of the DNAs on the first high card hand every time to get 3 copies then switch it back to the vampire for the actual hands
This is me when I am hooded executor of cookie cutter. (also lyrics on genius say it's "so you really wanna know how I freak it" but I've see the version you wrote on the start of lyrics from lyricsfind so now I am not sure)
Just imagine if he'd have taken that joker that increases hand level every time the hand is played when he had the chance. Flush 5 would've gone to the moon
At 45:50 you could move that joker card around when you want to duplicate cards and when you want to score high move it to the left of the multi jokers

First time watching your TH-cam content since the Isaac era (after getting back on board through the Librarian). Can't believe you're bantering with chat even in the absence of which -- all the strawmaxxing paid off. (+2)
This was a lot of fun to watch. If you use the cards to improve the single ace before you dupe it you'll get a lot more out of it. Also, you can move the joker that copies abilities so that you can copy more than one ability in the same round. So copy DNA (assuming it's compatible ) then move it to copy the vampire.
Additional fun fact... seals, Enhancements (wild/steel/gold/mult/bonus), and Editions (foil/holo/poly) are mutually exclusive. Using Empress on a Foil card will, in fact, keep it Foil.
Wdym, like it gets unlocked once gros michel breaks? I keep ending up selling gros michel before it breaks, maybe I'll keep it around one time for that
40:50 So for those confused, there is a couple types of card modifiers: - Seals, which are literal seals on the card (red, purple, blue or gold) - *Enhancements* which change the card itself (Mult, gold, steel, glass, luck... there's more.) - And then there is _editions_ , which apply an extra visual effect (polychrome, negative, foil, and holographic) The vampire only takes *enhancements* , so playing and duplicating the _polychrome_ ace OR adding the *bonus* to the _foil_ aces would have been no problem.
This was the first video i watched before getting balatro and i was amazed at the high scoring. Coming back after ive played a decent amount and wow did we miss out on a LOT in this run lol
Blueprint is by far the most insane rare joker out there - he could've sold one DNA for the blueprint, copied the DNA for his first hand, then moved the blueprint right to copy vampire for the real hand.
Now I always say that funny misplays and comedic timing are the bread and butter of NL's videos, but when he didn't take that undiscovered Club enabler I died a little inside.
"we're definitely gonna take the interest cap increase"

10:04 "I'm scared of being a nobody, but also I've got no money" - me, when I wake up in the morning and evaluate my life?
I love how serious he’s taking this. Usually he just acts on instinct but he’s actually thinking it out most of the time
Despite some of the missplays I still had a good time, thanks for posting!
the most painful part of this video is how often he plays flush five when it is level one and a fourth of the base points five of a kind has
NL Skipping over the legendary joker killed me(I went insano mode)
you can bluprint the dna and dupe 3 times the aces too and then swap to dupicate the vampire
"On the other hand, smoke em if you got em" lost me lmao
if the gros michel joker breaks, you can get another banana joker that gives 3x mult and had a 1 in 1000 chance to break
Wdym, like it gets unlocked once gros michel breaks? I keep ending up selling gros michel before it breaks, maybe I'll keep it around one time for that
When the game jumps from 14 million boss battle to 300 million small blind, and you just instantly realize you're cooked
When he took Five of a Kind over Flush Five as a Planet Card ...
Broke my heart
Fun fact real quick -- Red Seal does, in fact, retrigger held in hand effects. You can actually Red Seal a Gold Card and have it give you six bucks.
honestly if he just sold the four of a kind joker and used the legendary joker spectral card it would probably be better
Type A chaters when he sells the 4 of a kind joker instead of using the copy joker as a second DNA that will eventually become a Mult joker 😔
40:50
So for those confused, there is a couple types of card modifiers:
- Seals, which are literal seals on the card (red, purple, blue or gold)
- *Enhancements* which change the card itself (Mult, gold, steel, glass, luck... there's more.)
- And then there is _editions_ , which apply an extra visual effect (polychrome, negative, foil, and holographic)
The vampire only takes *enhancements* , so playing and duplicating the _polychrome_ ace OR adding the *bonus* to the _foil_ aces would have been no problem.
Dude needs a negative joker for more jokers.
The Egg really made a Shadowborn Apostles Commander deck in Balatro
flush 5 giving so much less than a regular 5 of a kind is so hilarious and hair pulling
20:30 insert evil laughter
HOW MANY MISTAKES CAN YOU MAKE IN ONE VIDEO
That run was sick though
This was the first video i watched before getting balatro and i was amazed at the high scoring. Coming back after ive played a decent amount and wow did we miss out on a LOT in this run lol
Blueprint is by far the most insane rare joker out there - he could've sold one DNA for the blueprint, copied the DNA for his first hand, then moved the blueprint right to copy vampire for the real hand.
I swear if he‘d duplicated the polychrome, he really would have gone somewhere! kind of a shame, would have loved to see those huge scores
Now I always say that funny misplays and comedic timing are the bread and butter of NL's videos, but when he didn't take that undiscovered Club enabler I died a little inside.
this run was so cool to see, everything lined up so well
0:01 back tuah
