To earn Completionist++ in Balatro, earn a Gold Sticker on every Joker. For each Joker that still needs one, win a Gold Stake run with that Joker in your inventory when you defeat the Ante 8 boss. Then check the in-game collection to confirm progress.
What Completionist++ requires
The achievement’s requirement is “Earn a Gold Sticker on every Joker,” according to the Epic Games Store achievement listing. A Steam Community guide describes the set as 150 Jokers; that count reflects the guide and could change with game updates.

This is different from Completionist+, which the achievement listing describes as winning with every deck at Gold Stake. For Completionist++, track Joker stickers—not deck wins.
How to earn a Gold Sticker
- Use the in-game collection to identify a Joker that does not yet have a Gold Sticker.
- Play a run on Gold Stake and acquire that Joker when it appears.
- Keep it in your inventory until you defeat the Ante 8 boss. The Steam guide says the Joker must still be present at that win; a Joker that disappears as the win resolves may not receive its sticker.
- After the run, check the collection to confirm whether the sticker was recorded.
Plan for temporary and awkward Jokers
Some Jokers can be harder to keep until the final boss. The Steam guide specifically calls out Seance and Sixth Sense, along with temporary Jokers such as Popcorn and Gros Michel. If one of these still needs a sticker and appears in a Gold Stake run, decide early whether you can preserve it through the Ante 8 boss.
#1 Best Overall
- 150 Jokers, each with their own unique abilities.
- 15 Decks with distinct modifiers to choose from for each run.
- 5 potential variants of each Joker which add further abilities.
- 22 Tarot cards variants that can enhance your regular playing cards.
- 11 Planet cards that help level up your possible poker hands.
- Do not sell an unstickered Joker you are relying on for that run.
- For a temporary Joker, account for its expiration or other removal condition. If it leaves your inventory before the final win, do not count the run toward its sticker.
- Use the collection as your checklist so you focus runs on Jokers that still need stickers.
Check stickers and troubleshoot a missing achievement
Gold and Orange stickers can look similar. The Steam guide recommends hovering over a Joker in the collection to verify which sticker it has rather than relying on appearance alone.
If the collection appears complete but the achievement is still missing, review the stickers again and consider completing another run. In one Steam Community discussion, a player reported that finishing another run triggered the achievement. That is an anecdotal workaround, not a confirmed rule for every platform or version.
