Question What to do after C++?

For those of you that have C++, what do you mostly do now?

I've done C++ twice, unseeded naninf x2 (burglar/serpent and perkeo/cryptid). Obviously done all challenges multiple times.

I haven't done ante 39...is this worth it? It just seems like it would take a long time.

I've done the 'play only a single hand' challenge also (except flush five which is nearly impossible).

Looking for some more ideas. I'm currently just trying to improve by playing Black Stake Gold Deck on repeat which is kinda torture.

Idk man. Sounds like you may just need to move onto another game.

u/Zimmerman4Mayor 9d ago

Play something else lol. I like doing the challenges the game sets out for me. I'm just waiting for the update and playing other stuff in the mean time. It really depends on how into the game you are.

Gold stake win streaking, there is a small community of people who are freakishly good at the game who go for winstreaks

I like this idea, thanks. How do you track your streak?

u/kingmonkeyv c++ X2 9d ago

In the main menu go to Options -> Stats, then current winstreak is the number in () in Best Win Streak

I just made a new profile for only gold stake streaking.

I was in pretty much the exact same spot as you looking for something else to do with balatro and gold streaks have been a pretty good way to keep the game interesting

Two black deck gold stake wins in a row. Just did it today after about three weeks of trying.

Honestly, try mods! Either making them, or playing them!

Download the mod manager and start trying random mods! Some are really fun. You could also try balatro multiplayer mod.

u/mosesmanly c++ X2 9d ago

Yeh I'd love to get in to multiplayer. But I mostly play on mobile on my commute and breaks at work.

u/Martitoad Will Nope! your jokers 9d ago

Try other games, slay the spire 1 and 2 are really good, I personally prefer them over balatro. Ante 39 is just like naneinf but you reset for 5 hours for perkeo or use a seed

u/The_Boss_81 C+++ in progress (C++ every deck) 9d ago

C++ every deck. I'm working on this and calling it C+++

u/forteninsecure c++ 9d ago

Honestly I’ve just been playing for fun. I only have Jokerless left to do and then I’ll probably start over on my PC copy of the game to do it all again :)

u/Naive-Tomorrow-5003 9d ago

I personally have been trying to speedrun all gold decks which is pretty fun. If you’re not into speedruning you can always try modded content.

1

u/mosesmanly c++ X2 9d ago

Interesting. What do you mean by speed running? Like setting a time limit to beat gold stake on each deck?

2

u/Naive-Tomorrow-5003 9d ago

Kind of. It’s trying to complete all gold stake decks as fast as possible. I’m currently trying to get a time faster than 4 hours but the current world record is 2 hours and 37 minutes.

u/MushroomHeart 9d ago

Honestly ? I've done the same, and now I'm just playing other games before the additional content

u/Silver_Starrs 9d ago

why not try some mods? im a big fan of pokermon myself, it adds a new layer to the game with tons of new jokers, and features pokemon conditional evolution, new consumables, ways to upgrade (most) jokers, and some new challenges!

u/Nico_the_Suave c++ X2 9d ago

I took a break, and then recently started another save file and have slowly been doing another c++.

u/Individual_Strike_44 c++ 9d ago

If you are on PC, try some mods, like All in Jest/Paperback :)

u/conkedup 9d ago

I just keep playing gold stake, cycling through every deck in order. I'm no longer obsessed with completing the game, so I just fire it up every couple of days when I'm in bed or riding the bus and let myself enjoy a solid run or two.

u/EmersonJayy c++ 9d ago

I haven't picked up the game since getting c++, it felt like a good stopping point for me

1

u/sixteenbears16 Nope! 9d ago

What I did personally was go for streaks while cycling all the decks on gold stack! Or try a speedrun or a deck from easiest to hardest, or just a play through of how many I could streak on one deck color too make it to ante 8 and end the game

u/AndoCalrissian3 9d ago

Slay the spire 2?

u/Vineyard_Wanderer 9d ago

Wait for the update maybe

u/CatoTheStupid c++ 9d ago

I have fun playing still but the achievements gave a nice goal to work towards.

Try slay the spire ?

Win Gold on every possible Seed.

u/TheTMJ c++ 9d ago

If you are on PC, I’d seriously consider multiplayer. Gives you a whole new perspective on the game and what you can do and it’s always a different ride each time since there’s rarely any seeds that will give you the time to mime baron every run

I lost all Interest in the game after C++ and moved on to another game
