Kings and Queens

6FCKWFSZ: I found this little gem in the Balatro Reddit, posted by u/chiefbeeferson. If you skip the first blind and beat the second, you will get a polychrome Credit Card and a Sock and Buskin on the first shop you come to. In this same shop, pick up the Arcana Pack and choose the Shard card to get Triboulet. If you start with the Yellow Deck, you'll have enough money to buy just about anything you want in the store, but I suggest holding out until Scary Face pops up in the shop. You'll get it at the beginning of Ante 5 if you reroll when you can, and you're first hand of Ante 5 will easily give you around 4,000,000 points.

Double Legendary Jokers

P2H5MF41: This was another great find on the Balatro Reddit by u/BillyBobJenkins422. Skip the first small blind to get the Mega Arcana Pack. Inside you get to pick two cards, so grab the Emperor and the Shard. This will give you a Devil, a Judgement, and a Yorick. If you use the Judgement, you will get a Droll for flushes. Skip the big blind, too, and defeat the boss. In the shop after the Boss Blind, you can nab both the Arcana packs to get another Shard, which will give you Perkeo, and pick Judgement in the other pack to get a Four Fingers. Next, Focus on picking up Flush planet cards to rack up some points.

Double Legendary Jokers

LH28B6PF: u/SOTGO posted this one on Reddit. If you skip both the first two blinds, you get a Legendary Shard in the first pack, and an Invisible Joker in the first shop after the first Boss Blind. Once you have double Perkeo, you can duplicate a planet card, Death cards, or whatever suits your fancy.

KH77XUG6: Skip the first two blinds, and make sure your first two hands are full houses (one will be three aces and two kings, the second will be three queens and two jacks). In the first store, you'll have a bunch of money, a Walkie Talkie Joker and a Telescope voucher. Hit the reroll button twice to get a Ride the Bus Joker and a Mystic Summit Joker. In the next shop or two, you'll also find Even Steven, giving you even more boosts to your full house 10s and 4s. In Ante 4, you'll get an Earth in the shop; buy it but don't use it! Because in Ante 5, you'll get a voucher called Observatory that will make leaving that Earth in your inventory. This was noted by the user malgoss in the Steam Community page.

L357CYFE: This seed works best with a Ghost Deck; it gives you an early, holographic Blueprint for $13, so make sure not to spend any money before it shows up. After that, you can get a very early the Soul for a Legendary Perkeo. It can be found in an Arcana pack at the very beginning of Ante 3. If you pick up the Supernova. You can pick up a Planet X and a Grim, keeping both in your consumables spots to get copies over and over again until your whole deck is Aces and you have tens of levels in 5-of-a-kind. This run also offers a Fibonacci, a Swashbuckler and an Egg, a Scholar, and even a post-game Chicot.

How exactly do seeds work in Balatro?

When you head to the main menu of Balatro to choose a new game, there is a check box at the bottom of the New Run menu that can be clicked on and off for Seeds. If you click this, you can type in or paste the seed code into the game. This will ensure that you get the same starting stuff as everyone else did in the same seed. This includes and doesn't include:

  • The same Joker cards in the same order.
  • The same Boss Blinds in the same order, at the beginning.
  • The same bonuses for skipping Blinds.
  • You will draw the same cards too, until you have altered your deck.
  • Changes in Blinds will change later Boss Blinds.
  • Seeded Runs don't grant any achievements.
  • If you are missing an unlock, like a specific Joker or you haven't played that type of hand for the planet card, the seed will roll a different, random card to replace it.
  • Seeds may not work across platforms.
