FAQs
How do you copy the Joker in Balatro?
Once a Poker hand is played Blueprint will continue copying the last Joker to its right even if its moved around afterward. This can be exploited by first playing the winning hand then moving Blueprint to copy the end-of-round effect Joker such as Reserved Parking or Mime while scoring is calculated.
Why is the square Joker good?
The Square Joker is a common Joker which provides a chips bonus that increases by +4 Chips every time you play a hand with only four cards. The four cards played do not have to score and all four can be debuffed.
What happens if a hand is played with 3 dollars or less Balatro?
Balatro. The wording in this game is baffling sometimes. What it means is: If you have $3 or less when you play a hand you get a tarot card. If you play 3 hands while you have <$3 you will get 3 tarot cards.
