There are some bullshit interaction with Lock that CDPR need to fix.

First the fact that unlocking a unit doesn't give back Resilience or Weather immunity.

The second is maybe worse, if you lock a unit and then you give that unit resilience if you use lock again on it that unit will be unlocked and not losing Resilience.
>>
>>172264861
Would you rather play consume monsters or some assorted control decks?
>>
>>172265610
Why should they be given back tho?
It removes them, not just locks.
The only time you unlock is if you want ability of the card anyway
>>
>>172265553
Yep, I was running old spear for a long time.

Now I pulled him out cause I want to run weather with 2 of those Griffon that make you select a card in the opponent Graveyard and put in yours.

Part of the reason is that I don't have caretaker and that I really like to have both Avalac'h and Ciri in weather. With the usual Carantir and Woodland.

I was thinking a version without foglet and Woodland to play Crones and Rider.
>>
why does reddit insist that the mulligans go back on the top of the deck. I saw rethaz telling them a thousand times already that they are wrong.

what does 4chins think?
>>
>>172267362
They don't go back on top, I'm pretty sure they're the second card from the top, if we're talking about the NG mulligan that is
>>
>>172267362
I am not a Reddit faggot, but without reading anything, just playing I had this doubt a bunch of times. Especially playing Nilfgard where you often have the chance to see what are on the Top of your Deck.
>>
How did an opponent manage to resurrect a card, and in the same turn play rally? Playing Skellige and he played that 2 power resurrect for the +3 on res card.
>>
>>172265997
It makes counterplay to an already uninteractive mechanic disproportionately weaker. You are dedicating a whole card to something he did. Why shouldn't unlocking my Ice Giant keep it from getting fucked by my own frost?

Even Hearthstone realized strong silence effects are cancer. Who honestly misses Ironbeak Owl?
>>
>>172270112
so you want to make resilient and weather immune an uninteractive mechanic i got you clear?
Dont forget that blizzards potion and adrenaline rush are standalone cards

Just play discard skellige and you can check for yourself.
>>
>>172270651
There is nothing uninteractive about resilience or weather immunity. You can use removal, scorch/epidemic effects, dbomb/mardrome on top of an unanswered lock.
>>
>>172265713
I picked Villy because I don't know yet. So far he's terrible in my near starter tier NR set. But still fun to play. Once I get some more cards I'll bet he's pretty awesome.
>>
>>172271917
>use removal to remove things

while your concern that locked unit cannot be locked again is legit, i cant agree with you m8
different tools for different means is better than swiss-knife removal for any trouble

I really loved how stable my Radovid deck was before the patch.
Yencon dropped? To the dungeon. Need perfect setup for igni? No problem, thanks to ballistas and Myrgtabrakke. And then was enough room for whatever in bronze special slots.
Now it's all about fucking random trebuchets and pulling siege experts and taking every hit of yencon because you're never drawing that fucking shackle when you need it and you can't make more room for anything because you need your trebuchet support and enough traction to make your Foltest useful because you're a hipster who doesn't play Henselt meme deck.

Enjoy your month and a half of ST control shitting on everyone.

Just lost because Schiru flipped when a merc got played WHO DIDN'T PULL A SPECIAL CARD. Schiru literally goes off if your card just says you SHOULD pull a special. Fucking broken horseshit.

And don't worry, if you don't have Schiru you can just Brouver your scorch on demand then Aglais it again whenever you want. Don't have Brouver? Just scorch, Aglais then Eithne Aglais for 3 scorch. Almost as good as Schiru. Don't forget to throw in Isengrim for free unit spam.

Schiru needs to be opposing player specials only. And Teruviel needs to be disabled if the ST player passes.

Yes, I am mad. Middle tiers of ranked is 50% tier 1 ST control netdecks and it's worse than SK discard and consume spam ever was.

Mercs are definitely hit or miss but they're so good that I can't make a deck without them. Right now I'm using triple dragoons, two blue mountain commandos, and two sappers. The purpose for them is to have a good unit to buff if Toruviel is not in hand. Two might be a bit much though.

I feel like a lot of different combinations could work with the ST bronze units. I liked trappers prepatch but now they're not worth it to use with Iris. Plus they kept bugging out on me and I could only place them on the opponent's melee row.

I meant for control decks, perhaps I latched onto merigolds because I still remember that one brief time of like a whole day where people swapped from aeromancy in their scoia decks to merigolds because you got 2 of three weathers and you could play the ranged row and shit on the guy who played any other row but then people got wise to it and aeromancy came back...and then aard got released and eithne double aard into rain to clear the whole board was born. What an insane time. God am I glad elf merc is relentless now.

Treason is just good if you're playing spies. You don't need to do the Letho combo. Just leave Cantarella on their side until the end of the round an Treason her back for a huge swing.

Too many spells, I think. Also, Scorch can kind of fuck you since you get a lot of buffs from Ambassador and Brigades. Play Ciri instead of RNR, she's really great.

He has 5 spells, you're confusing spies for event cards

youre right! we should not think about potential counterplay at all haha. we should just slam minions onto the board and see who has the coolest golden cards xD

>>172309107
No, I was talking about his spells. RNR and Scorch don't synergize well with that deck.
>>
>>172309021
I'll replace RNR with Ciri but keep Scorch for the rounds where my opponent buffs more than I do

>>172309350
I'm also keeping it because I have no silvers to replace it with other than the cow or commander's horn

There is zero counterplay to a Schiru. Even if I do not play a special card ST can still pop him at will. Scorch is balanced, ST pulling it from their deck at will then bouncing it multiple times is not.

The only ambush counterplay card is in ST itself.

PSA: If you're losing to someone lower rank than you, pull your internet cable. You lose way less MMR and they gain way less if you forfeit due to connection.

They have really good decks. Just play casual, you have no hope against the AI.

Solution to the coin-flip:

I might not be the best player, that is true. However, I also have barely any good cards because I keep getting duplicates and never any epics or legendaries so my scrap production is very low.

Sometimes I wished that I was playing gwent with more or less what we had before the most recent patch - the meta was more concentrated, but on the other hand, many of the changes were beneficial - overexcited with changes made, but reversing these same changed. Later? Most likely.

Okay, more silly news.

- PS4 CBT build has been implemented in server. I still haven't got a hold of that (cause I don't have a shitty console).

CH PTR build is 0.8.72g, ended with g. Something fuckery. My guess, CH stands for Commander's Horn podcast.

If you get weathered, it clears the weather.

If you don't get weathered, you can pull a unit from your deck, which thins your deck, allowing you to draw your stronger, non-bronze units later.

It used to just clear weather, and it was run exclusively as an answer to weather, but it was given the extra utility of rallying a unit because if you're not playing a weather deck, it's always a dead card, which is terrible for a card that nearly every non-weather deck would have to run, or risk getting completely shat on by a weather deck.

There are only 2 decks that run:

Henselt and ST

Everyrhing else is fucking shit

I cant lacerate or kill every PFI from Henselt without him resurrecting him.
Its incredible that a shitty deck like Henselt has higher thinning power than Skellige without the disadvantages.

Also Scorch should be fleeting and D-bombs and D-Shackles should affect ambush cards otherwise its fucking shit

>>172362470
Henselt is not a shitty deck, come on.
And the wounding SK is not that weak right now, along with NG spy chaining bullshit.
I agree with scorch being fleeting though, ST allows way too much playing around with a silver card. I'd say they should also make dbomb affect entire row again as long as henselt and swipe still do.
>>
>>172362470
As consume monsters you can kind of deal with Henselt as he has to go all in. If you lose the first round you'll win the other rounds pretty ez.

ST on the other hand is literally AIDS. 4 scorches, untouchable units, always guessing what's under those nigger ambush cards and don't forget their fucking passive....

If you have other thinning mechanics, you can end with dead FL R3.

Philippa (or dickstraw into philippa) into ADC into witchers and roach also comes out. not only 29 points but it also thins your deck by 5 or 6 cards (if you dickstraw into philippa it's 6 cards thinned)

What should be done about this card? CDPR has said they want to keep "starter cards" like the vanilla 10s in the game for new players but Rethaz has also said they'll improve the starter decks and probably give players 4 golds and 6 silvers to start with in the future. It's never been a meta pick and probably never will be in its current state.

Maybe Ge'els golems decks can see some value in it, but they're better off with earth elemental and 5 other silvers. How would you rework the cow /gwt/?

I did because spies were what I enjoyed from gwent in TW3. I wasn't enjoying other decks, so I just milled a bunch of shit and went for it. I'm actually pretty happy with it.

>>172417980
spidies anon, spidies

>>172418185
If anything, it'll probably be an alternative version of manticore venom instead of a rival to LARP Ciri who is a silver while the venom is only bronze
But then again, I might be wrong since Rad became worse than a bronze card despite the fact that leader powers are intended to be roughly the strength of a silver card

the nr changes are just temporarily. they are reworking the hole faction.

this game has the biggest disparity between f2p and p2p players of all the card games ever released
every other game i play against cunts with perfect synergy decks and the highest value golds like fucking Yennefer
after a week of doing 18 round wins a day i could barely improve the starting decks by 3-4 cards

and it looks like all the kegs earned during beta will be deleted
>>
did they ever mention whether or not this game will be on steam?
>>
>>172425127

It has a lot less to do with that than it does with keg RNG.

I dropped 40 $US on the game reasoning that I could get $20 value out of it either side of the wipe and figuring that I could put together a decent deck or two. Out of those 40 kegs I got three cards that were useful and about 1,200 scrap in shitty useless duplicates. Which added up to another good Gold and a Silver.

Woo fuckin' hoo.

If the kegs decide to lumber you with absolute shit it's very difficult to advance.

>>172425564

Release version will be.
>>
>>172414098
actually NG isn't that bad on the elves, even gave them their own "free" state, Dol Blathana, as long as they swore fealty. They did abuse the Vrihedd and sold them down the river once the war was over but overall not that bad compared to the nordlings.
>>
>>172427408

Dol Blathanna was a pretty deliberate fuck you to the Elves though. They needed a homeland to re-establish themselves but since the majority of the Vrihedd and Scoia'tel in general were younger Elves that were exiled or killed it left almost nobody who was fertile to actually go to Dol Blathanna and make an Elven homeland.

Which was also by design since Emhyr knows a failed Elven state will have to cave in completely to Nilfgaard for support eventually any way.
>>
I can't take this anymore.

I have done something like 20 match today and 18 were against fucking NR with 19 Henselt and 1 Foltest.

Another thing that I can't stand is the amount of Rez some faction has. It's just bullshit how can I fight something that has 5+ Rez if at most I have 3 cards that mess with the enemy graveyard ?

Without considering that the moment you kill a unit your opponent has his turn to Rez it so that you can't steal it.

triss is neutral, vernon gets the NR passive to actually be a bigger play in pure numbers, lorveth has the most removal power, pretty balanced desu

I think he's talking about the fact that Iorveth is 7 base + 6 removal, while the other two have a total of 12.

Also, faction passive shouldn't matter.

well this has been true for the last 6 months

the only reason we see more but hurt atm is the influx of new babies who didnt play the game for more than a month

its like people forgot that borkh had 9 base str and there was no lock in the game

that ocvist coud be reused over and over again cuz his timer went to 5 when he returned to the hand

that monsters were literally unplayable even before thee clear skies buff

that skellige was brain dead retarded with the discard back in like november 2016

the shit goes on

im just kinda mad at this lmoa lets nerf A. foglets and give literally a better version of them to NR and you can ress them 4 times and make them gold xD

meanwhile for the last 9 months ST was been getting shadow nerfed and are the only fucking reason cards have fleeting among other things

Ah neat. It gives you credit for how you've done already. I start at rank 2 with 646 points. Is that about average for a f2p level 10 player?

Because Radovid dealing 8 damage without any discrimination was too powerful
>>
>>172459152
Because even while buffing entire row, he can still lose to other solitaire decks. Make him do 5 units, and he'll be used in exactly 0 decks.

>t gives you credit for how you've done already. I start at rank 2 with 646 points. Is that about average for a f2p level 10 player?
I'm not sure how it works, i started at rank 2 aswell and it wasn't until like 30 ranked matches that i lost my first game so i don't think casual performance has much influence on starting rank.

To make a parallel to Gwent: When you feel like a match is already game over and your opponent is just emptying their hand because they can, why not forfeit? The game is already over and you've lost etc.
Difference is just that when you forfeit IRL, you can't choose your deck again and find another match so you're most likely more than just a bit upset over facing the same deck 88 times in a row when you make the final decision.
>>172466965
Yeah, every day of getting cards I already have that amount to almost no scrap isn't all that fun but I'll get a cool card eventually, right?

You don't need to, an epidemic in hand will do the same thing as a gold pavetta and you can use shani to resurrect something that isn't shit instead.

1.) Is Gwent more complicated and in depth than Hearthstone?
Yes. I got 7 times legendary in hs early in the season with control decks and I don't think I'm a skilled player at all.

2.) The game feature no creature combat or health pools, how does it compensate for this in fun factor?
Because it actually makes you think about the game instead of some meme rng effects that hs uses to create "unique" scenarios.

3.) Less or more RNG?
Less, a lot less. It feels very refreshing to me after months of hs, it feels like if you lose you can always backtrack the loss to your own mistakes somewhere.

4.) How many cards per deck are there? 20?
25 is min., 40 is max.
4 cards of these can be gold, 6 can be silver
>>
>>172492716
1) Its different kind of card game

3) Less RNG
4) 25-40 cards

They are 3 strength now (up from 2). Still it's insanely difficult to climb against Vicovaros and gravediggers/consume.
You also have to account for swims deck which runs 2 frosts.

Pic related is my crappy deck, which I manage to mill to 1 card on most games.

Also one more question if you guys don't mind

How much money does Gwent need to get invested into it? I have like $150 I can drop, what will that get me?

>>172493902
Evert keg you buy in beta will carry over to release.
Every day you get 2-3 kegs so your collection will get enough for a good deck after a week or less.
>>
>>172492716
1.yes
2.well they have strength which can be removed from abilities/spells you just don't attack a face or other units
3. so much less rng
4. 25-40 everyone runs 25 though no reason to go over 25 you don't get extra silver or gold card slots

losing isn't that much rage inducing because you can usually identify a mistake of your own play and no nigger aggro/perfect curve game you see often in HS


honestly I wouldn't go too hard in it now and wait for the reset/open beta release unless you want to spend money on packs because well sucks not having the best cards and you can gain cards way faster f2p than in HS but its going to reset so maybe you won't have motive to do dailies

you will play other news players until level 10 then after 10 I saw tons of good decks

The point is what you're saying now is exactly what people were saying at the beginning of last patch about radoivd and they were wrong in the end.

Thing was that before the patch hit I wasn't even running meta decks. It's just that the amount of Locks going around completely fucks anything that isn't meta, and even having assembled a meme deck I can't get anywhere due to incredibly shitty starting hands.

Nothing's going to save you against Ambush ST, Discard SK, or Om Nom Nomsters when your starting hand is literally 3 Promotes, 3 First Lights, Dimeritium Bomb, 2 Field Medics and Nenneke then after drawing mulligans you manage to get to 1 promote, 2 First Lights, Dim Bomb, Nenneke and 3 Field Medics, and two PFI then you don't draw any Seige Towers or 'Rita after that.

>>172510819
i didnt see a geels player once, but i met 2 foltest players who played a really really weird deck
>>
>>172510559

Dim Bomb works against anything with buffing and can allow Gigni to mop the floor with shit like the Kayran if you get both in one hand. FL helps with the amount of people who go with Biting Frost and if they haven't got weather should theoretically allow you to pull something useful. It's just that for me it never brings anything I want out.

RNG is a flat bitch in this game.

FTR the deck I nearly hit Rank 12 with was non-wounding, non-discard SK. I do know how to play but when you draw shit hands and your opponent isn't there's only so much you can do about it.
>>
>>172511091
just because cards are good in a vacuum doesn't mean you shove all of them in the same deck anon
>>
>>172512085

I know. The deck I built Is quite cohesive.

3 PFI
3 Field Medic
1 Crinfrid Scout
3 Seige Towers
3 Promote
3 First Light
Margarita
Nenneke
Dim Bomb
Roach
Priscilla
Cleaver
Gigni
Shani
YenCon

Problem isn't the deck, it's the shitty draws. Priscilla into Roach doesn't help anyone and I keep getting stuck with too many Promotes or FLs. I tried dropping one of each for more Reaver Scouts or Reinforced Trebs but then I'd just draw two of each in my starting hand instead of three.

I'm exaggerating a *little* here but not a lot. Never drawing Rita and Priscilla pulling Roach most of the time doesn't help.
>>
>>172514020
I don't play NR but I why use two silvers for D bomb and Cleaver? Wouldn't one shackles be fine?

3 FL also seems like overkill to me.
>>
>>172514020
You know you can redraw three cards at the beginning, right?
>>
>>172514252

D Bomb to fuck with consume monsters or ST buffing. Cleaver to take out units like Mork or prevent cows from killling rows of PFI or Aretuza spawns.

3 FL should be OK since in theory it can pull anything or wreck Ge'els Foglet rampages. In practice all it does is pull Reaver Scouts when I have nothing to summon from it or Field Medics on turn one. Adding anything else just dilutes the bronze draw pool even more. I guess I could drop the Reaver, a Promote, and a FL for the Temerian infantry that muster each other and thin things a little.

>>172515202

Yeah, if you throw a card back into your deck you can't draw another copy of that /on that redraw/. It doesn't mean that card gets blacklisted for all three redraws though. Hence the problem.

This has not been my experience.

IME if I throw a card away you don't draw that specific card back for the three and don't draw a copy of it on that redraw. However if you have multiple copies in the deck you can draw another copy of it in redraw 2 or 3.

Yeah, meant Harald.

I don't think Ge'els or Harald are too strong, but it seems strange that they'd move away from stuff that affects an unlimited amount of units, and then rework Ge'els into something that affects an unlimited amount of units.

Welp, they just made Promote only hit three units.

>>
>>172529242
You can stop Ge'els' unit spam with removal though.

You can kill Margarita and Henselt will just res her back Shani.
>>
>>172529279

Hotfix to fuck anyone who isn't playing Ambush ST or Nilfgaard Crowd Control.

Henselt was the only remaining viable NR leader but he's fucked. Only hits 7 adjacent units even though Ge'els and Harald are uncapped. Effectively now worse than Eredin since he can be worth 22, 11 on each side of a round.

Promote only hits 3 units rather than all copies of a card.

RIP in peace Northern Realms.
>>
>>172529440
I don't mind Ge'els' ability, It just seems inconsistent for the devs to try and move away from unlimited row/board buffs, and at the same time add some.
>>
>>172529485
> Effectively now worse than Eredin since he can be worth 22, 11 on each side of a round.


Literally false.

If you hit 6 PFIs + a medic, for example, and have Margarita + seige towers, you're looking at 14 + 14 + 14*number of towers strength.

How many times were you actually hitting 8+ units with henselt? The only time I can think of that happening is when you have a shit load of Aretuza's on the board, and that's way too swingy tbqh.

The promote nerf also only affects PFIs and Adept's, and it makes you have to actually make decisions when positioning your seige towers.
>>
I think that if you make PFI strenght 4 and spawn only 2 copies and/or Siege Tower only gaining 1 strenght when a gold unit appear Henselt could have been stayed the same.

Radovid would't have cared of those nerf and even Foltest would't have been to affected.

I still think the main problem was the amount of res you can have in NR that limit a lot the counterplay option.

I can kill to many unit I want, but if you can rez them without problem I will go out of steam and you can pull out your combo.
>>
>>172529715

>How many times were you actually hitting 8+ units with henselt?

Before this you rolled the dice against Lacerate, GIgni, cows, or Pandemic/Pavetta by stacking your melee row with PFI. Then you hoped like hell that your opponent wouldn't have another copy or Torrential Rain to drown your Aretuzas and/or Seige Towers.

A lot of NR units are low value due to the bonus for going gold. But since people were mad about losing in games they could have won by GIgni-ing or Lacerating in at the right time they demanded a nerf to the last remaining viable NR playstyle. I don't mind if they want to reduce the number of units Promote or Henselt can hit but the counter-point is that they then need to work on synergies and buffs to the other units because otherwise you get stomped.

It's the same reason they killed PFI a few months ago, all anyone had to do was roll with a Biting Frost or Lacerate them before they got too big, but Reddit gonna Reddit.

If my opponent was a dumbass, before this I could smack 9 PFI, 3 medics, and Cleaver with Henselt for 13 Adepts, then Promote the 13 Adepts. Only way to counter flickering Elves, Wounding Skellige, or Cow Control but that's gone. Time to netdeck Consume Monsters, I guess.

Of course this would be right fucking after I spent my scrap to make Shani, Nenneke, Pavetta, Rita, and Yen summoner. I knew I should have crafted Avallac'h and Caretaker instead.
>>
>>172530214
>waah my greed can't go unanswered

The numbers you're talking about were way too ridiculous, literally nothing in the game can match them. 200+ power wasn''t hard to achieve with this deck.

Seige towers can get rained, sure, but you also had promote and henselt to just make them gold, and there's no counterplay to that except for Shackles, which is a shitty card, and Dbomb, that no plays, and can't even hit more than one tower, because for some silly reason, Adepts spawn between the towers, instead of to the right like every other spawned unit.
>>
>>172530401

>The numbers you're talking about were way too ridiculous, literally nothing in the game can match them.

>Nothing
>Well, other than GIgni

If you were losing to it, it was your own fault for being a retard. Gold farming Henselt is telegraphed as fuck, so the reward was for getting it right against smart players. Can't have that though, let's all go back to mindless Ambush spam, Discard SK, and Cow NG.
>>
>>172530214
In Theory you are right in practice is a lot different.

First, Lacerate.

If your opponent has a brain he doesn't need to be greedy. He only need to play a PFI and a scout to have enough body on the field that with a RST he get a + 24 Power swing.

He can simpy bait out your Swipe and then using 1/2 medic (in a deck with 3 medic, neneke and Shani) or 1 medic and scout to have back the PFI.

The problem arise when you consider that thanks to the amount of Rez and scout he has in the deck he can pull out the combo every turn without problem.

While in the other hand you don't have the same security on pullin gout Swipe, Biting frost or Gigni if you don't play a high Thinning Deck.

Than you have to add the fact that he will counter at least one Swipe, Gigni or Biting Frost so for winning a round you must have at least 2 answers that he can counter.

And even if you win a round you still have one left to win and you can't count on the counter card you have used to win the first round while Henselt could probably count on good graveyard to use his medic.

Another thing to consider is that except for Gigni Swipe, Biting Frost and D.BOmb don't put out value on the field. So you have high chance to counter his strategy, but still remaning with less value on the field by round 3. And that actually what happen often.
>>
>>172530662
good bait, lacerate and epidemic are the only "counters" in that list
>>
>>172530662
Gold farming Henselt is telegraphed as fuck, but you can't do much to stop it.

>kill tower
>lmao medic it back
>kill tower again
>lmao reaver scout out a medic
>kill Margarita
>lmao shani/nenneke

Even if you only manage to keep a single tower, a few PFIs and promotes/henselt could still give 20+ swings with ease, while only having a couple pieces of the full combo.
>>
Play against Henselt with NG.

Last round me 3 card him 2.

I have Cahir so I decide to use him as first card in case he got a good bronze.

He get medic.

Henselt play medic.

Medic rez Scout and chose medic;

Medix rez Medic;

Medic rex PFI;


You were my brother Cahir!
>>
>>172530845
>>172530997

I've seen way bigger swings with Consume Monsters or Harald with Axemen.

Both of those are a hell of a lot more brain-dead than Henselt.

The bigger issue is that Henselt was the last remaining NR leader worth a damn after changes to units and Radovid's nerf, so now it's a completely useless faction. Not just a faction with shitty leaders, one that's not even worth dragging out.
>>
>>172531626
Siege foltest is pretty good actually, and Henselt GOLDED is still a very good deck.

Radovid definitely needs a buff though. His ability has some decent uses, but it's so fucking underwhelming.
