Ballionaire Beginner Guide
Learn a practical Ballionaire run plan: read trigger conditions, build repeatable interactions, evaluate boons and prepare for tribulations.

Read each trigger as condition → effect, then choose additions that repeat or multiply an interaction already on the board. Treat boons as rules that reshape the whole run, and keep room for the current tribulation.
1. Build around conditions, not rarity alone
A trigger only pays when its condition occurs. Bonked effects need contact; Entered, Passed and Exited effects care about movement through an area; adjacency and spatial rules depend on placement. Use the trigger list to filter by condition and effect before spending a pick.
2. Make one interaction repeat
Choose a clear engine such as repeated bonks, holders, rerolls, stacking or cooldown control. Tags in the catalog help find entries that mention the same mechanic. A shared tag is a search aid, not proof that two entries form an optimal combo.
3. Evaluate boons against the current board
A boon can reward rerolls, holders, deposits, cooldowns or another global rule. Search the boon list for the mechanic already producing value. Unlock labels describe the supplied profile configuration; they do not establish a complete achievement route.
4. Read tribulations before committing
Tribulations change the constraints of a run. Check the balls and tribulations reference before assuming a board survives the next rule. Where the recovered text depends on runtime substitution, this site leaves a visible “configured value” marker instead of inventing a number.
5. Use catalog boundaries correctly
The extracted lists include hidden, generated and undraftable records. Their presence proves that an entry exists in Build 17962354; it does not prove ordinary draft availability. Filter rarity and read each availability label before using a record in a run plan.
Sources & version
Names, localized text and player-facing configuration come from Ballionaire v1.2.1, Steam Build 17962354. Evidence labels distinguish catalog presence from live-run availability.
Public data removes engine asset references, resource identifiers, scene and prefab fields, executable data and local paths. Exact runtime substitutions remain marked instead of estimated.
