Balatro Seed: 6D3QIVXB (Ghost Deck)

ANTE I

-- Blind 1: Royal flush with diamonds possible with all discards used.

------ Talisman can be bought and placed onto king of hearts at start of blind 2 for later.

-- Blind 2: Non kings can be discarded at the start of blind 2 to play a full house into a discard for another full house with queens/9s, while generating a small amount of coin through talisman.

---- buying the buskin here can set towards getting a glass kings deck going later on, or if you save for later you can build into a steel deck, although I haven't tested the steel deck very far, so the rest of this will be for a glass king setup, but you can nab a chariot from the left arcana pack and apply it to the diamond king instead of buying buskin if you wish to do so (voucher is optional but very much helpful).

ANTE II

-- Even Steven goes pretty well at the shop here, although depending on how you're feeling, ballot can also help you trigger the gold seal an extra time or so to generate early income.

-- Blind 1: can be cleared with a flush on hearts (discard that 2 and dig for the ace farther back in the deck)

------ use the income from that to nab that voucher (ignore all jokers if possible, they won't be used for long)

-- Clear blind 2 however you feel here, there isn't anything extremely notable, although if you want to trigger talisman again the king is near the end of your discards and most of your hands

------ pick up mystic summit to boost your mult for now

-- Boss blind: discard all non spades into playing a flush

Ante III

-- Nab the shop voucher at some point, we'll just be clearing the blinds here, don't buy any jokers here, we're saving till ante IV.

------ (you can get death if you want from the arcana pack after blind 1 and use it to copy the king of hearts you may have talisman'd earlier)

Ante IV

-- Do not reroll the shop, grab the voucher only, and move on to blind 1

-- Blind 1: can get a straight flush K-9 with the diamonds using all discards

------ for glass card enthusiasts: if you haven't already (mostly because I didn't tell you to) sell all jokers save the sock and buskin, you'll be hexing that one before opening the spectral pack to ankh it. After that you can buy the shop for some good income from the all 6's and business card. then reroll for a brainstorm to copy your buskins.

------ steel cards: reroll the shop for your mime, hex it, and open the spectral pack for an ankh, then reroll once more for a brainstorm (potentially grab the trio to carry you into ante V)

-- play how you wish till ante V, though make sure you keep some money saved up for the first shop

Ante V

-- can get to DNA by rerolling this shop a few times

Notable mentions:

-- there is a blueprint you can get to in ante 9, HOWEVER, you can get this joker as a negative by rerolling 14 times after finishing ante 8 and then skipping the ante 9 small blind (this will cost somewhere around $105 if you've bought the vouchers as you went [and ignored the voucher that allows playing cards in the shop, although I do not know if they add to the shop queue or replace cards, regardless, I opted to avoid the vouchers that add things ino the shop])

-- READ: Ante 7 has the world tarot card in the shop to reroll to, and ante 10 has a cryptid in the shop queue, grab both of these for dealing with the boss blind in ante 11 if you've glassed your hearts

-- READ 2: Ante 13 has a luchador down the shop line, make sure you have money to roll for it, as it will get rid of the boss blind issue in ante 15
