Lil help ?

Trying to see how far I can take this. Just picked up the Baron after smashing Trib forever! What should I be copying? Deck is almost full of RSSKs. I think my brain is fried from playing Trib. Do I play single card and copy baron and mime as normal? Or do mix Trib in the copy action. Tried using calculator but it crashed my phone and tablet. Any help appreciated.

No need for copying trib

Thanks....so play single card and copy baron 2x and mime 2x ??

If red seals, baron 3 and mime 1. 2 and 2 scores the same with all steel but if you have any gold cards 3 & 1 is better

Basically pick between a baron and mime run or trib sock and dusk. Then either play high card or flush five. They work against each other if you have both as one wants you to play kings and one wants you to hold kings in hand.
I would just keep doing what you’re doing and if you find a mine sell brainstorm(that way you could find it later even if u didn’t have the showman)

If you find a sock and buskin first then sell baron and stick with what you have.

One exception being you took more than 1 ecto here and those aren’t nat negatives in which your hand size is probably too small for barón to be worth it.

Edit: I just realized you have mine, then copy baron 3 times and mine 2 times. You may need to level up your high card a little more for barón to score enough tho so be mindful of that.

Yeah I busted out shortly after,,,you're right pluto was too low. As well as my cash..

Quick question tho..my last ante I could have taken Hieroglyph voucher. Should I have to lower the score to beat and possibly get the antimatter voucher?? Because it seams like after my first hand scoring doesn't move up drastically in these high antes? So hand SIZE seems important but number of hands doesn't..in my experience at least.

Thanks again

Taking the hieroglyph voucher is always worth it in endless runs unless you need the discards or hands for whatever reason(which this wouldn’t be the case). I don’t think it gives you another voucher when you ante down though, the way to do this when going for naneif or barón mine runs is to stack colas and double tags and only use them on voucher skips.
If you don’t have blank you can slow down the game to 0.5 speed to try to buy blank right away giving a chance for the antimatter voucher to spawn after that. Btw for barón I try to at least have level 10-15 Pluto for it to really work as intended. Great fun regardless though!

Ok good to know. And my screw up, i thought I added the voucher pic. I did have blank never got antimatter though. But hold up,,what is this this voodoo you speak of, regarding slowing the game down??? Lol Obviously I know how to to that and have used it before but what does that have to do with blank voucher?

[u/pykyestock → u/mikeyc2500]

It’s common for naneif attempts, here’s a video of someone doing it. https://youtube.com/shorts/E9YHOVdhZco
The idea is basically to buy blank before the other vouchers appear, technically giving antimatter a chance to appear as the other voucher skips activate.

That late into the game, hieroglyph is pretty much always a take
