No shot he just did that in literally the first minute

>Gets sick early jumbo spectral pack >Buys Smiley Face for the abandoned deck instead ICANT

"Bro, it's sooo doable" -Guy attempting least doable thing of all time

Bro doesn't know that he can't have a "Jokerless" run, because HE IS, the Joker.

every time his brain goes "I'm discarding one 8 for purple seal, so I should discard all of them" no matter how many there are in his deck and how much he wants to play an even carded full house, I descend one step farther into type A hell

truly a BLESSED video start

0:59 breaking news: Type B chatter rates drop to 0%

I'm a balatro guy, of course I skipped the first 20 minutes so that I can be the first to backseat in the second half

oh man not even a minute in and im thinking like a type a chatter

6:57 Highlander coming out of isolation to determine if the world can kill him yet

if I had a dollar for every time NL tried to sell an eternal joker, I wouldn't need any econ jokers ever again

45:52 egg inexplicably plays steel 7 instead of foil 7 and misses out on incredibly valuable mime'd double 1.5x steel card boost from steel 7 which could have easily cleared blind after staring for 20 seconds at his hand

A wildly oscillating (typical) balatro run full of "it's so over" and "we are so back"

41:49 I don't want to ride the A train no more, he teased that moon play down to the last second, all he had to do was play the moon, then flush house and I would've achieved full release

36:48 when I’ve purchased multiple properties in an old industrial area of town in order to turn it into a new nightlife district

2 flat mult jokers in a steel card build, that's my egg

17:12 me right before i order nachos for the table

Holding onto flat mult so you can add +82 multi to 4000+ multi by the time steel cards are done triggering on every video that goes this distance is what turned me into a type A chatter.

28:22 cant believe he didn't even consider taking the 3 of a kind joker lol

the first minute of this video is why i keep coming back, thank you egg lord

0:00 Me when I'm playing a challenge in the game called Balatro and I want to stop playing it

no you don't understand the smiley face for the abandoned deck at the beginning is what the professionals refer to as "Long Term Investments"

Absolutely love how he passes on playing a full house to try to draw a 4 of a kind where supernova would give 27 mult instead of 2

what an amazing first run

NL I think you often forget Balatro order of operations… when you’re trying to pump steel cards, getting mult before steel cards trigger is more important than adding flat mult/xmult after steel cards trigger, e.g. polychrome walkie talkie

How does he still not see that jokers like even steven are so much more valuable with steel cards because the mult gets applied beforehand. Like how the whole run fell apart as soon as he sold even steven lol

No way bro didn't restart recording after the first minute

holding the moon for 4 rounds just to sell it 😭

1:22 me when i’m trying to convince my friends to buy a game that we’ll play once and never touch again

The even Steven cut hurt

We’re balatro guys of course we’re commenting on NL’s strats within 5 minutes of the video being posted

Wow I’m early! Last time I was this early was in June 5th, 1998. It was a warm Friday afternoon. I stepped into the old watering hole at around 5pm. Sharp. That was when I saw him. There was an air about that that was undeniably charming. Even though he was surrounded by people, we locked eyes. He made his way across the bar and we had a conversation. I can’t remember the exact details of what was said, but he asked me a question that changed me life. He asked, “Do you want to go to Sawcon?”

What I love about NL is that he constantly fucks up but doesn’t delete the footage.

take a shot everytime NL misses a flush house

i cant believe this guy just got done playing five of a kind 10 and decides that a hologram that gives 1.5 mult is better than polychrome 10 4 call me a type a all you want that was a straight up throw for engagement

we're balatro guys or something

4:52 first mention of endless potential. Amazing, ante 2 brilliance

NL It made me feel way less dumb when the god of Balatro himself also took a face card joker as his first joker on abandoned deck … i also did this last night

I hate to be a type A but I think this is coming from a good place. + mult jokers are basically useless on a good run like this. Once you have a high level hand, steel cards, glass, etc. the + mult is just a drop in the bucket. Example in this video being 42:20 where by the time tarot/flash add their combined like 100 mult, the hand is already at about 2000 mult. I doubt just removing those would've brought this run to e looking at his later shops, but its something thats important to be aware of when trying endless runs.

You know it's going to be goated after that first run

59:37 Me when I randomly guess a time in the video to try to make a low-effort joke about and get it completely wrong

that was a genuinely hilarious opening play, gg

Man finishes in less than one minute; Asked to leave

I love the Balatro, keeps me pogged up

Bro, love the vids

making actual progress in ante 12 is nothing to be mad at at the end of the day, but im still gonna say that the dozen or so different opportunities for a flush house given up for like an extra planet card really got me good

4:34 Me giving realistic expections to the shareholders of my new privately owned space program

No one: The guy from the ads: 0:50

I’m usually a type b chatter through and through, but it hurt how little he utilized the moon cards and could’ve easily made a shit ton of flush houses and could’ve hit mama Liz’s e oil

-Tells himself he should pivot to flush house -levels flush house -gets multiple moon cards -refuses to play flush house 👁️👄👁️

The immediate recognition of smiley+abandoned deck was pretty funny ngl

Selling astronomer to buy constellation, now we're talking

We’re balatro guys of course we hold r 45 seconds into the video

You had a flush house available in the first hand of the last round, but you did not notice it because you refuse to play with the 4 color deck

I know I'm a couple months behind. But hopefully he figures out that steels reward smaller played hands. Full House is a bit tough to work with unless you have insane hand size.

that start was really funny. I made the same mistake in my head lol

Is there a playlist for NL's balatro challenge videos?

Can someone please tell NL that mult you get during the play is better than mult from jokers like fortune teller because it gets multed by steal/polychrome cards/ glass

13:59 One of these days he's gonna use Aura on a steel card...

When he fixed the audio it felt like shower water finally popping out of my ears

Nice run brother

he pumps flush house to never actually play a single flush house... then purchases a supernova AND PLAYS FOUR OF A KINDS FOR A WHILE????? I swear to god I'm a B type viewer

43:31 NL being drake pilled turning that 6 into a 9

It hurts my head how many flush house upgrades he gets and still sells a moon tarot

Those challenges really you playing sharp Egg.

Did a bunch of the other challenges in between just not make it to YT?

im confused why is there jokers if it’s jokerless

His Balatro ELO is rising to the e's.

Bros got the memory of a doughnut I love it

Now I am become Type A chatter, watcher of Balatro

WHY ARNT YOU POSTING ALL THE CHALLENGE RUNS =/

Selling the moon after holding so long hurt me but I let the egg cook!

17:28 in b4 realizing the synergy of free planets plus timesmult when using planets get deleted 😶

Who hid the other challenges?

At risk of sounding like a Belatro simpleton, that was still great playing regardless of the actual scores.

Restarting for immolate so big brain

26:45 me when i'm new to a job and they ask me if i know what i'm doing

Lmao the smiley face

Lil bro really got list in the weeds on this one huh? 😂

Somebody, please tell him that when thinking about flat mults, you have to consider the freaking mult from the planets as well

It's insane how you still don't realise that flat mult jokers completely fall off when you're steel maxing, ah yes that +50 mult will make such a big difference to your 13,000 mult.

16:40 He sold Astronomer to buy Constellation???

So was he trying to select the challenge and failed or no

4:03 erm acktually 🤓 it would be modus operandus

... flush houses were so makeable

Hi NL, idk if u read comments but when you get to ante 12 and are using steel cards, flat mult jokers are worthless. you are reaching 2k mult from steel cards and then added 70 mult. thats a 1.03x mult joker. At this point a joker giving 30 chips will be giving more score 👍

Frictionless?

No one talks about the Type C chatters because the Type C chatters don’t talk about themselves.

him overvaluing flat mult adders when he has cards that mult the mult BEFORE the joker would add it is really getting to me

hi tomo

"Man posts the worst jokerless run ever. Asked to leave"

God this man’s horrendous play is turning me type a

Hi tomo

Hiii Tomo!

Dawg…

Nobody: *exists NL every waking moment: playing straight

Why did you fish for four of a kind when you had full house you EGG

If you watched this and remained a Type B, youre a stronger chatter than I.

rerolling past hack on a faceless deck run is enough to drive a man to get a footjob

45:50 why not play the other 7
