I've literally never skipped one. And no one can ever convince me I'm wrong. I've sold an important joker, got an irrelevant legendary and died immediately more than once. I'll never stop.

This is the Balatro way. Is it really playing if you aren’t gambling?


sammyd48

The best balatro comment ive ever seen


queefkicker

Is it gambling if I know that the possible jokers are worse than any I can sell?


LiveMango418

I’m pretty sure both Yorick and perkeo are better than erosion here. Especially since canio is multiplying mult *before* erosion (you need to keep him there for brainstorm) erosion really is not making a massive difference I think.


queefkicker

Only if you are playing endless


FelixOGO

I just skipped a soul card recently on the challenge where it locks your jokers in on ante 4, I was bummed :(


toomanylizards

I've been making my way through the Stakes on the decks i have left and completely forgot these are even in the game because I NEVER SEE THEM


evilwraith

You should feel shame and deep remorse.


CookieSquire

You already have guaranteed x64 from Canio and Brainstorm. There’s no need to keep Erosion at this point, and Card Sharp is overkill.


Recalibration709

agree with getting rid of erosion. disagree with overkill. no such thing.


CookieSquire

There is overkill in terms of security. You could play it safe and know you’ll win, or you could get Triboulet and pivot into a godlike endless run.


playdoughfaygo

This is peak self control.


VeryBeanyBoy

you may have won, but at what cost.....


ben_sphynx

See a soulstone, grab it and plunge into forehead. Diablo taught us the way...


Hi_My_Name_Is_Dave

Erosion is literally useless, you might as well take the soul. 1/4 chance of Perkeo which would be a huge upgrade, and even Yorick would at least be good.


queefkicker

I should have posted my planets too. Brainstorming Erorsion was better for everything under a 3oak. My WinCon was to play two 3oak in 10 hands.


Hi_My_Name_Is_Dave

It’s ante 8, you should really be able to consistently play your hand every time especially with only 37 cards in your deck. If you have 10 hands to play a 3oak then you really don’t need to worry about the throwaway hands. And on your 3oak your erosion does nothing.


Postier

I was looking for something to do, I'm going on the seed to see what you missed


Postier

It was triboulet, so you did good not taking it !


MewtwoStruckBack

The only way I would say it was wrong is if you either haven't discovered every Legendary yet, or you were on Gold Stake and thus were guaranteed to see a Legendary you haven't already for stickering progress.


steves_evil

I've always taken a soul when I've seen it, but the past 10 or so have given me Chicot like 7 out of the 10 times and no Perkero.

Win > legendary


CryoPig

Insta ditch cardsharp for sure,


fuckinstupidhead

card sharp over erosion? don't need +mult if you have 8x8x3


Jimi_Dean

Either of those over Splash? Literally any of the legends would have been an improvement Edit: sorry, I missed that splash was neg, in that case yeah either sharp or erosion can go and an ante 8 win is still basically guaranteed


CryoPig

Personally ya, synergistic with canio, his deck was down 15 cards so, +60 mult and his most played hand was trips and cardsharp has a hard gate if he doesn't get it, plus he's got a shot got like a 3 in5 chance of getting something that scales to way more then x3 (Yorick, another canio or perkeo) hell even a trib would work too, create facecard use it for a bit then kill it. That's my 2 cents anyway
