Balatro's The Tooth boss disables a suit. Adapt your Flush builds and Wild card strategies by identifying the banned suit and using discards efficiently.

·Multi-source verified (47/47)

Ability: Disables all cards of a specific suit from scoring. For example, 'Disables all Hearts'. This can cripple Flush builds or any build relying on specific suits for Wild cards or Joker interactions.

Strategy: Identify the disabled suit immediately. If your build relies on that suit (e.g., a Heart Flush build), you need to pivot. Use discards to remove cards of the disabled suit from your hand. Prioritize playing hands that do not involve the disabled suit, such as Straights, Pairs, or Three of a Kind using other suits. Tarot cards like 'The World' can be used to change the suit of cards, potentially saving a run. If you have Jokers that provide bonuses regardless of suit, they will be very valuable here.
