Finding An Overpowered Seed with Balatro's Brainstorm Mod! Highlights
Now that Gold Stakes difficulty has been thoroughly beaten, I wanted to try out a couple of Balatro mods for fun. Brainstorm is a very straightforward mod that lets you search for a run seed with specific characteristics, such as starting with Perkeo, the Telescope voucher, a Charm Tag, Observatory in the second Ante... those sorts of things. Any seed you find with this mod can be played identically without any mods so this is more of a reference tool than anything that directly impacts gameplay. Very useful if you want to try out a very specific strategy. In this VOD, we use it on White Stakes difficulty to attempt to get as many points as possible... I'm not very used to piloting a deck like this in the super late game, so enjoy some fun highlights of my warped thought process as I give in to my intrusive desires and discover the hubris of man.
If you want to try this mod for yourself, you can download and install it manually via https://github.com/OceanRamen/Brainstorm. In-game, you can activate the mod seed search using Crtl+A. The seed for this specific run is QHE3Z738. I'd love to see if you can do better than me: feel free to post any interesting runs or seeds on the Discord: discord.com/invite/h7W8Cp4T5T
