Of these 150, there is a special set of five Legendary Jokers that can truly send your score into the stratosphere. But Balatro doesn't hand these Legendary Jokers out for free. You'll need to get extremely lucky to get your hands on them, but once you do, you won't want to look back. Here's everything you need to know about Legendary Jokers in Balatro. Table of contentsHow to unlock Legendary Jokers in BalatroAll Legendary Jokers in Balatro How to unlock Legendary Jokers in Balatro Legendary Jokers in Balatro are not like your regular Joker cards and cannot be found in the Shop or from Buffoon Packs. You can only obtain Legendary Jokers by opening Spectral Packs and getting the Soul Card. They're among some of the best Jokers in the game, though, so we recommend seeking them out if you're given the opportunity. The Soul Card spawns randomly in Spectral Packs and even has a very, very low chance of being generated in Arcana Packs. Once you pick and play the Soul Card, a random Legendary Joker will be added to your Joker collection. Be sure that you have enough room in your Joker collection to receive the random Legendary Joker! Trust us, the effects a Legendary Joker can have on your score are monumental and, in most cases, you'll want to sell an existing Joker to slide one of these bad boys in. All Legendary Jokers in Balatro There are five Legendary Jokers you can collect in Balatro. All of the Legendary Jokers are based on revered jesters throughout history and each comes with a unique and powerful ability. Here are the Legendary Jokers and their effects in Balatro. Card Effect Canio Gains 1x multiplier when a face card is destroyed. Stacks infinitely. Triboulet Played Kings and Queens each give 2x multiplier when scored. Yorick Does nothing initially. After 23 discards, gain 5x multiplier for the rest of the run. Chicot Disables all negative effects of every future Boss Blind. Perkeo Create a Negative copy of one random Consumable card in your possession at the end of the Shop phase. All of the Legendary Jokers have their benefits and drawbacks, much like their regular Joker counterparts. The first Legendary Joker I encountered was Yorick, but I opened him very close to the eighth Ante, meaning he took up a Joker slot and did nothing in the most critical part of a run. Had I found him much earlier, I might have been able to put his five-times multiplier bonus to better use. Perkeo is an example of a powerful late-game Joker. Copying Tarot Cards like Hanged Man (to destroy cards in your deck) or The Fool (replay the most recent Planet or Tarot Card) means you can stack on the hand bonuses and tailor your deck to your needs. Don't overlook Chicot's ability either: The Boss Blind effects are no joke, especially when you are nearing the eighth Ante. Going after a regular score with no drawbacks is a lot simpler than trying to take on a boss who disables half your cards. Like Yorick, Legendary Joker effects are very powerful, but getting them earlier in a run is always going to be more beneficial. All you can do is hope to get lucky from an early Spectral Pack and land that Soul Card!","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/balatro-joker.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1145494"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2195"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1145494"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1145494\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1489092,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1145494\/revisions\/1489092"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1145541"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1145494"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1145494"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1145494"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1145494"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1145494"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1145494"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1145494"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
