The 10 Best Seeds In Balatro (Guide)

Balatro, the roguelike deckbuilder inspired by poker, has captivated players with its chaotic combos and high-score chases. One of the most entertaining ways to experience the game is through seeded runs, which let you dive into pre-generated setups filled with powerful Joker synergies, wild RNG, and explosive scoring potential.

Here are the 10 most broken and satisfying Balatro seeds to try — including the decks to use, what to expect, and the cards that make them legendary.

10. Miming Mimes (Seed: PTSBMSMQ)

Deck Required: Ghost Deck

This run starts off strong with Mime Jokers that retrigger your hand repeatedly. Early on, you’ll find a Mime in the Jumbo Joker Pack, and with the Ghost Deck’s free Hex Spectral Card, you can grab a Polychrome upgrade instantly. Combine this with an Ankh in the same shop to duplicate the Joker.

This setup shows why the Ghost Deck is one of the most powerful — its access to Spectral cards creates unmatched early momentum.

9. Triple DNA Combo (Seed: XD55DZ57)

Deck Required: Ghost Deck

This seed lets you build the famous Triple DNA Joker setup. You’ll get your first DNA Joker in Ante 2's shop, use Hex to give it Polychrome, duplicate it with an Ankh, then use Wraith for an Invisible Joker to make yet another copy.

Want to go further? A Brainstorm in Ante 4 unlocks a Quadruple DNA build. Deck control becomes total, and score multipliers soar.

8. Double Perkeo Power (Seed: 2VJZV6KK)

Start with an Arcana Pack that offers a Soul Spectral card, and then duplicate Perkeo with an Ankh in Ante 2. Later, you’ll find Ectoplasm to make Perkeo Negative and an Observatory Voucher to skyrocket your score.

This setup enables wild Negative consumable builds, making your run an absolute scoring machine.

7. DNA + Triboulet Synergy (Seed: QD3F4XVW)

Skip the first Small Blind and you’ll unlock Triboulet from the Arcana Pack. Beat the Big Blind and grab a DNA Joker from the shop. Use DNA to clone Kings and filter your deck to enable insane damage with Triboulet triggers.

Simple setup, massive impact.

6. Oops! All Tens (Seed: 7LB2WVPK)

Deck Required: Erratic Deck

Start this run with a deck made entirely of Ten of Spades. Every hand becomes a Flush, and Jokers like Idol that react to suits or ranks will trigger on every card.

You can get multiple Idols and Blueprints for mind-blowing synergy. It’s a laid-back run with massive potential, perfect for players who want to enjoy the ride while watching scores explode.

5. Five Perkeos, One Blueprint (Seed: F2AXGQ52)

Grab Hieroglyph Voucher early to unlock Perkeo in an Arcana Pack. In Ante 6, reroll the shop to get an Invisible Joker that duplicates Perkeo again. By Ante 7, you'll also get the Observatory Voucher, triggering bonus effects from Negative consumables.

End result: Five Perkeos plus a Blueprint, turning your score into a joke (in the best way).

4. Legendary Best Friends (Seed: 8P7W6QG5)

Start with both Canio and a Foil Triboulet right from Ante 1. These face card-focused Jokers have amazing synergy, especially with Glass Kings. Later, find Blueprints, DNAs, and Invisible Jokers to amplify the setup.

Triboulet boosts Mult on play, and Canio thrives when those face cards break. It’s a glass cannon dream.

3. All Legendary Jokers (Seed: ALEEB)

By Ante 3, you’ll have ALL FIVE Legendary Jokers: Triboulet, Yorick, Chicot, Perkeo, and Canio. It’s like opening a pack of destiny. No run can feel more complete.

Once you unlock this, the rest is just optimizing your scoring engine and watching the numbers fly.

2. Negative Canio Madness (Seed: 1EK6XQHS)

Recommended: Ghost Deck

Start with a Negative Canio from a Mega Arcana Pack and power it up with The Hanged Man to instantly gain 3x Mult. Then grab Pareidolia, which synergizes perfectly by making every destroyed card buff Canio further.

Reroll Ante 2’s shop four times to get Immolate, pushing Canio to 8x Mult.

Bonus: You can find a Blueprint or Brainstorm by Ante 3.

1. Road to NaN (Seed: 2K9H9HN)

Recommended: Plasma Deck

This is the most broken seed in Balatro. By Ante 2, you'll have Negative Perkeo and Triboulet from two Soul Packs. It sets up perfectly to push the game to its limits.

Eventually, your score gets so high that it reaches NaN (Not a Number) — a score so big the game can’t calculate it. This is the run that breaks Balatro (and makes you a legend).

Final Thoughts

These seeds aren’t just overpowered — they’re playgrounds for creative combos, insane deck control, and high-score glory. Whether you're chasing NaN or building the perfect Legendary Joker lineup, these runs show just how wild Balatro can get.
