Hope you guys enjoyed this video! Shout out to u/realitylime4896 for the suggestion. Let me know your thoughts on including a run where we talk strategy, but arnt necessarily successful. Also, let me know how your runs are going!

@Skyking549 2 ай бұрын

Honestly its more realistic for my expectations. All these tutorials tend to show perfect expectation seeds and then i wonder why my rng is never like that. Keep up the great work. I feel like i really understand the game better now!

Very refreshing to see the unsuccessful runs. So many games streamers only show the good bits.

Thanks your tips, and your chat’s tips, I was able to get 100 million in one hand and unlock the joker Stuntman

Really appreciate the advice! Only to ask if in future videos you could maybe select packs...etc... like 5% slower so we can really see what you're taking? Thanks mate!

The part about putting the steel on cards you're going to use was brilliant I didn't even think of that! That's definitely going to help my game a lot! Thank you for that and the shout out to the original person came up with the idea!

@travissteele6239 3 ай бұрын

This and focusing on removing cards you don't want (not just adding cards you want) from your deck were my two biggest take aways

@ZainoTVLive 3 ай бұрын

Glad it was helpful! Yeah, I always debated it, but was slowly moving to steeling cards I used. Then BalatroUniversity made some great points and swayed me 100%. Ever since then, my runs have been better.

Felt like I was finally understanding this game util I saw your run at the end. 🤯 One day I’ll win a run. I think I’m about 0-20 so far.

You got this, I'd also checkout my tutorial video on how to win a run. There are also great resources from other creators like BalatroUniversity!

I'm not sure what the name of the joker is, but there's one that says "all cards are considered face cards." I've tried using that one a few times and nothing ever happens with it. Would you be able to share what that one is all about?

@ZainoTVLive 3 ай бұрын

The biggest thing this does is allow other jokers that effect face cards to effect all your cards. I.e. sock and buskin retriggers face cards when scored, so now with pareidolia every thing retriggers. There is scary face that adds 30 chips for each scored face card, well now all scored cards add 30 chips. Etc. it's only useful if you pair it with face-card specific jokers.

What video was that final run from? I'd like to be able to look at it in full!

@ZainoTVLive 3 ай бұрын

Just recorded it on stream Saturday, so its going to be a few weeks until it comes out in the Lets Play! If you want to see it though (And don't tell anyone this) you can watch the Live archive from Saturday on my channel, it was the first run of that stream.

10:16 How do you know that the left face down card is not an Ace? Am I missing something?

@ZainoTVLive 3 ай бұрын

I realized right after it could have been, there are ways of switching between suit/rank and knowing what's in your deck that you can tell, but I got lucky.

@finlay9260 3 ай бұрын

@@ZainoTVLive Got it, thanks for confirming! I'm always trying to find ways that help figure out what the face down cards are, but wasn't sure if I missed some way to tell. I saw in another video that you can use tarot upgrades like Empress or Hierophant to briefly flip the cards and see what they are, which can be useful in a pinch. Anyway, thanks for your videos, they've been super helpful! Gonna have to look into some of your full runs too.

Didn't have enough basemult or cards for bloodstone to 2x on :(

If posting a stream or talking over a stream, could you just put a picture of the card(+description) up on the screen for a moment?

Yeah, I'll need to do better at this.

@SGZealotry 2 ай бұрын

Why does it have to be a full house at 10:15, I don't get that

@ZainoTVLive 2 ай бұрын

So the cards are going ranked left to right, and also a tid bit is cards are ordered by suit, Spade, Heart, Club, Diamond. I am making a guess based on the fact I had way more Kings of Hearts/Spades than the two (a Club & a Diamond) Aces but I was wrong when saying IT HAD TO be a king. For some reason in the moment I thought I did not have those two aces in deck.

Still stuck on doing a Red deck run. I just get to level 7 and get screwed. I’m at a loss

@ZainoTVLive Ай бұрын

Sometimes you get unlucky with shops. Focus on getting scaling additive mult, xmult, additive chips - also try and build an economy (Max interest is at $25), before opening packs.

@@ZainoTVLive ok first off did not remotely expected you to respond. So I really appreciate that. Appreciate your content. I have learned a lot, just need that next level.

@ricksgamemisc10 3 ай бұрын

Lol, I love your videos and have been watching several over the last few days. But I literally had to stop this one after about the 3rd hand where you kept getting the best cards over and over. Bears absolutely no resemblance to my games hahaha.

@ZainoTVLive 3 ай бұрын

Things scale extremely fast, you almost need a steel card, red seal build with mimes to do it. You can go with glass until like Ante 12-13 but soon your glass all breaks.
