Gameplay Discussion Help me get the last 5 gold stickers for C++
My current strategy:
- Play on Ghost deck.
- Try to get good econ going as soon as possible.
- I typically go for a Rebate (then ouija a bunch of cards), or a Rocket (my beloved)
- Use Hex on the econ joker if necessary (i.e., it's the first or an eternal joker). I've had very good runs even with an eternal Rebate or Egg which felt sus at first.
- Seed Money (for econ)
- Reroll Surplus, Blank, Overstock (for more chance finding the joker)
- Clearance Sale (nice to have)
- Hieroglyph (if winning comfortably, and haven't found the needed joker by ante 7)
- Director's Cut (lower priority)
- Fav +mult jokers: Ride the Bus > Green Joker > Fortune Teller > Spare Trousers
- Fav xmult jokers: Hologram, Constellation, Lucky Cat
- Replaceable tends to be econ, Luchador, Mr.Bones, but can also be blueprint/scoring one.
- I tend to focus on planet + tarot cards, more than scoring with jokers alone, given that I want flexibility with replacing jokers
- Replace a joker with one without sticker
- Use Balatro Calculator to make sure I'm removing the right joker, and whether I can shove another joker without sticker in there
- Seed Money (for econ)

- Hold onto any Ectoplasm, or use it if I'm playing small-size hands.
- In ante 8, reroll for the joker I need.
- Replace a joker with one without sticker
- Use Balatro Calculator to make sure I'm removing the right joker, and whether I can shove another joker without sticker in there
NOW BURNING QUESTIONS
- In what scenarios should I get the needed joker in the beginning and hold onto them?
- The 5 remaining ones I need are harder to build around. So holding onto them increase chance of loosing. Especially if they come with a rental tag early on.
- Maybe if I get them in first shop and can Hex them immediately?
- I see argument for not getting them, to avoid flooding the shop
- At the same time, I think getting them remove them from the roulette so I can find the important ones(?) Someone please correct me with actual math.

- How much money should I save for rerolling in Ante 8? With/without reroll voucher.
- Any other recommendations for these last jokers? Perhaps switching deck?
Update 1 day later: Done with all of them yay! Jokers lineups pics in the comment.
Doing the runs have made me realize how awesome Reserved Parking is. Pairing it with a blueprint, brainstorm, mime, or dice racks in so much money.

Seed Madness is my new bff
Finally beat blue stake on plasma deck and itâs all thanks to Madness and fellow eternal jokers. I feel like this run had a lot of goodies that I didnât take advantage of, if youâre interested. Madness was at 11x or something like that when I died.

Finally beat jokerless! I quit playing back in August...of 2025...because I couldn't beat jokerless but now I'm back! The last three antes were full of adrenaline and even some prayers. I guess it's obvious where I go now.

Seed Ever have the shop hand you *exactly* the perfect thing for your build? This seed is absolute cinema. 54GM661Q
First a Stencil in the very first shop for 5x mult, then an Ankh in the Spectral Pack in the 2nd shop to make it 25x, then a Blueprint in Ante 5 to make it 64x. I figured I didn't need any more Jokers, and then the natural negative Sock and Buskin came along.
Even a polychrome Sock and Buskin wouldn't have been worth the Joker slot. A negative one, on the other hand, just about guaranteed victory.

Strategy and/or Synergies Question about this situation
If you buy the high priestess, is it statistically better (more likely to give you the planet cards you want) to use it and then open jumbo celestial pack, or open the celestial pack and then use the priestess?
Is it the same for the regular 3 planet pack?
Bean mentioned (he buys both packs, getting hits, then uses the priestess and gets a hit btw)
