How to play it
In our own words, from our seed check (the original post has the finder's own notes).
- Ante 1, shop before the Big Blind: the Buffoon Pack has Invisible Joker.
- Ante 2, shop before the Small Blind: the Jumbo Arcana Pack has The Soul, which becomes Perkeo.
- Ante 6, shop before the Boss Blind: a Spectral Pack offers Ankh.
Our take: why it's good
- Invisible Joker duplicates a random Joker after you hold it for a few rounds. If Perkeo is your only Joker then, the copy is Perkeo. That is our likely explanation for the finder's 'two Perkeos'; we did not model it.
- Erratic Deck randomizes ranks and suits, so check your deck before planning a hand type.

What the post claimed
The original poster says this seed has Perkeo.
- Perkeo: Checked.
- Perkeo - Jumbo Arcana Pack in the Ante 2 shop before the Small Blind (from The Soul) (Ante 2)
Caveats
- The post didn't name a stake, so we checked White Stake.
- Skipping a blind also skips the shop after it, so later shops change if you skip or reroll differently.
- Seeded runs don't count toward unlocks or achievements.
How this seed was checked
This run was verified by BalatroBuddy on v1.0.1 (checked 2026-10-28) on Erratic Deck at White Stake.
Run Settings Note: The original community post did not specify the deck or stake. BalatroBuddy checked and verified these seed mechanics using White Stake.
What was verified: Shop contents, pack offerings, skip tags, and boss blinds for Antes 1-8.
Nobody at BalatroBuddy has played these seeds yet: every route here is worked out from the game's seed logic, not a human playtest.
We work out Antes 1-8 for the posted deck and stake from the game's seed logic. A seed is verified when every item in the post title shows up in a pack, a voucher or the first few shop cards. We leave playing-card ranks in Standard Packs off, because we can't confirm them reliably. Results assume every Joker is unlocked.

Questions
How do I play seed YCHYNLQ7?
Start a new run, switch on Seeded Run, type YCHYNLQ7, and pick Erratic Deck on White Stake.
Does it still work in the current version?
We checked it on 28 Oct 2026 (PDT). Later patches may change results; players on r/balatro reported in 2026 that seeds have not changed.
Why is my shop different?
The usual causes: a different deck or stake, a Joker that is still locked on your save, or skipping a blind (which removes a shop).
