N-th for Triss is a needy and boring submissive animu waifu with a personality of a cardboard box yet also an incredibly malicious and poisonous cunt whose entire existence in the games can be attributed to some cringy ass tumblr fanfiction tier writing in the first Witcher and whose entire purpose is to literally suck Geralt's dick every second which is apparently a decent enough substitute for actual chemistry in the eyes of a person who wrote her. I don't really care about Yen and the whole waifu debate, although it evidently makes all the sense for Geralt to be with her, but really. What a shitty fucking character.

Also axemen feel a pretty balanced when you don't have access to weather, they rarely ever go above 12-15, which makes me think they aren't that great in a Harald deck that lacks tempo plays.

Bears are only 1 damage per card, what I meant is that Holger Blackhand will outright kill or weaken a card so much that I can't really get the full potential out of Birna, Coral or Harald, or even the Shieldmaidens sometimes if that makes sense.
Still a decent option.

Absolutely. Letho D-Bomb are extremely reactive cards, they're are trash without CA, specially when Knights might reveal them in your hand.

Drop Tibor for sure

>Did they nerf Skellige yet

Nerf SK and you'll get 75% monster
There's not that much to nerf.
Axemen work as intended, is frost what is bonkers. But they won't rework frost anyway.
Bears will/should be 5, but knowing CDPR they'll put them back at 4 + some extra nerf like not wounding spawned units anymore.
Shieldmaidens are balanced. If you eat/discard one, the card becomes bad. Really bad. On their own, they are 5/6/7, which is shit compared to the average 9.
They can be a tempo play, but every faction does that and even more effectively. They also need a condition, while the other musters don't.
Hjalmar is fine.
The other cards are either decent like Lugos or Coral or memetier, like Vajborn and Kambi.
Or, of course, just bad, like Birna or Cerys. Because Cerys is shit and everyone knows it.
What else do they have?
>>
>>180298665
Nope, it's a huge fucking grind now. Anybody above rank 14 is affected by the mmr changes.

SK and NR are fundamentally broken factions for one simple reason - both play solitaire instead of a duel game. Their mechanics require very little interaction with the opponent so mostly it's a one sided game of try-to-break-their-combo. This factions therefore can be either overpowered (fat enough to play solitaire comfortably), or utterly shit. Gwent was designed by monkeys.

>Shieldmaidens are balanced.
Their condition is extremely easy to meet thanks to like a thousand ways to inflict damage around which skellige decks are being built right now, and the fact that they can actually be sort of countered by two golds one of which is somewhat popular in this meta doesn't mean they're suddenly fine. Not to mention they boast a crones tier power swing in addition to being black-listable and not taking up silver slots. They don't need to stomp them into unplayability but a small tweak would be nice.
Everything else I agree with pretty much. Let's pray they don't nerf Hjalmar for no reason
>>
>>180299597
That's kind of the case with all of Gwent though famalam. You either go for a disruption deck or a solitaire combo/point engine deck. The meat and potatoes of the gameplay is figuring out which your opponent is running and playing yours in the best way to counter that. Even solitaire deck mirrors have optimal ways to play them.

Disruption: Spellatael, weather, spy nilf, to a lesser degree Borkh and chicken decks
Solitaire: Every other deck in the game because having one lock and maybe one or two pieces of removal doesn't count
>>180300293
To be fair I think they should give them the queensguard treatment. Remove the veteran tag and possibly bump them to 4 base power, although leaving them at 3 wouldn't be unreasonable either. Would still be a 15 point swing with deck thinning which is still a fairly powerful bronze.
>>
>>180299327
NR
Do you really think Hjalmar is problematic?
Wow, I don't know what to tell you...
You sound like someone that needs help opening jars.
>>180300293
>>180300787
> Remove the veteran tag and possibly bump them to 4 base power
This is what I think is going to happen. But people will still complain, since they'll be an even bigger swing in the first round. Same in second and you don't really care about third, because playing the muster cards in the third round is fucking stupid and the reason why I hate the mulligan every round.
I mean, is cool, but people using it to keep the muster til the end... one of the biggest changes of the OB imo.
Leaving them at 3 would make them really, really week. Just a 5 on their own. That's not what CDPR wants. That's why they increased a lot of base powers.
They want cards to have at least some valor on their own.
>>
>>180301516

> but Tibor needed to be nerfed down to 23?
No.
But they did because of whining kids.
>>180301928
That's 3 cards. And they need you to hit a wounded unit.
If for whatever reason there is only 2, they become 10 points. That's just slightly above average value for bronzes. Deck thinning is fine thou.
>>180302182
Exactly.
People is already crying because of Kambi.
Kambi, man.
>>
>>180302483
>Need to hit a wounded unit
And that is difficult for SK how?
>>
Why did they make specific new tag for Longships instead of just making them boost themselves instead of strenghtening

are they fucking stupid?
>>
>>180302727
If they play against NR or NG, it can be hard.
>>
>>180302182
I agree but as a NG player I want to see the other faction's fatties reigned in to suffer the same consequences.
>>
>>180302727
>give opponent free body on board
>next turn it's 15 power

>>
>>180302998
Other cards have it.
The reason why is strengthening instead of boosting is because of self wounding synergy.
>>180303135
Nerfing is not the way to go, man.
>>
>>180302998
hunters and berzerkers also do it

increasing base str is SK's gimmick so they have it on those units to take advantage of warcrier and armor smith

>>180303135
you should be calling for the death of consoles so your faction wouldn't be nerfed into the ground due to a bug that could've been fixed quickly
>>
>>180302998
Are you? You don't see the difference between strengthen and boost?

im not really sure which to pick, but im thinking avallac'h since he's a not-terrible neutral, and kambi is a meme and i don't play NR at all currently, since i only ever play SK(discard, queensguard/discard hybrid and a mork deck i made myself) and monsters(foglet, deathrattle and consume)

getting boring playing SK every single game, then have people say that the faction is fair and balanced, when they have the best cards in the game at the moment, which is why everyone is playing them in the first place.
then you got the bear apologist, who say they don't run bear, yet are 3k, but still still have hjalfag, shieldcrones, weather, and axemen.
so obviously bears are balanced, because you can win with all the other OP garbage SK has up their buttholes.
all in all, sad state of the game.

first off, nowhere in the rules does it say you need to submit a dick pic to organisers.

Even if that was the case, and you sent a complete deck list for each of your decks, how is the opponent supposed to know that you did not change any cards in between matches?
>>
>>180315323

You register your deck with the organizer

Organizer watches matches to make sure you don't pull shenanigans.

Buddy of mine's been on a big ol' mulligan bender and having a good time with it.

Now that he found a mulligan netdeck with Isengrim he's convinced and having a good time.

I'd say so.

Probably. When you've got a ton of options there's more room to phase gigni out, but it's almost always decent and is a good replacement for royal decree in basically all the starters.

I crafted Gigni first and I think it's incredibly useful. Especially if you're facing a lot of Xmen. Renew was my second craft and it's helpful to play double Geralt or Triss.

If you want to play NR Dandelion is a must. Woodland spirit is pretty good for monsters. Ciri dash is the worst of the three but she is neutral.
>>
>>180329514
Dandy's good in almost every NR deck.

Woodland spirit is good in fog monster decks and decent in all other monster decks.

Ciri Dash is a fun meme if you have a deck that thins itself drastically. Spy/mill nilf, discard Skellige, mulligan squirrel, etc.

I would recommend a toss up between Dandy and leshen depending on which faction you like more. Ciri Dash is fine and is a fun card but the other two are more gud-gittin.

Elder's good in a few respects. If you're running Borkh you can use him to put points behind a gold border, eating to take things out of weather, and general purpose eating to embiggen your nekkers. You deserve being bullied for milling Eredin because frost decks aren't too shabby.

Honestly though the deck seems too weird. 3 vrans seems like much since you're not running behemoths so the only purpose of them is to eat shit and get fat so an ekkimara can eat them. The archgryphons don't feel too good since weather shouldn't bother you that much with the exception of egg popping, which they won't protect you against anyway. Grave hag is decent in decks that run behemoths because your graveyard gets bloated with dead spiders but without them I I wouldn't think she's as swingy.

If it works for you god bless but it seems really fucking weird anon.

Hjalmar's the strongest of the 3. Cerys only goes into meme overdrive if you're also running Operator so you've got 4 queensguard. Wild boar is good but Hjalmar is better overall and Cerys is better if you're doing 4 queensguard and worse if not.

He actually doesn't. Those are some of the most reliable ways to get his buffs, but since every NR should run Reinforcements that helps, and most NR decks run shit peddlers which help since you know what cards you have in play/in your hand and can slap buffs on other copies still in your deck.

I'm trying out NR for the first time, and I'm a little confused about how Kaedweni Siege Support (the one that buffs all units played) works. If I play one and then play a Kaedweni Sergeant (the one that buffs all units of the same power), does the Sergeant buff units before or after it gets buffed? Similarly, will a Blue Stripes Commando get pulled before or after the buff takes place? I'm running into a lot of instances where I expect a Commando to come out and it doesn't happen.
>>
>>180337149
>Kaedweni Siege Support (the one that buffs all units played) works. If I play one and then play a Kaedweni Sergeant

The sergeant will become a 4-drop, and then buff all 4drops in your deck (i.e. the 3-drops won't get buffed)

And since it becomes a drop, no, it does not pull commandos

it's what happens if you never click on "ranked match", ever.
>>
>>180337335
>So I should actually drop Sergent before Siege Support?

if you want him to buff 3-drops (including other sergeants), you have to do that

if you want him to buff 4-drops (such as the new reaver hunters), you don't

Overall, playing both those cards in the same deck gets clunky and unreliable
>>
>>180337439

I see. I'm not playing Reaver Hunters in this deck, so I'll play Sergeant first.

This deck is pretty fun.

foglets is a 8 point play if you're fogging a row with at least one non gold unit, was there really no opportunity?

Dorfs go from being the predominant carryover faction to being the literally worst carryover faction.

Well I am filled with regret spending a few thousand scrap on movement. All the pieces are just too weak and you get too far behind on points.

Well at least we can sit here and be in pain together, and imagine a world where Iorveth's cool functionality actually could be leveraged.

Tried a few variations. Initially thought weather and the succ-chick might work but playing bronze weathers naked just meant I was raped on card advantage. Shifted gears to playing more dudes for more points and it worked a little better but 90% of the time you end up working really hard to make your bronzes near 10 point value when others are just slapping down cards for that. Shit sucks. Mulligan is at least playable but now I wish I crafted Isengrim instead of Iorveth. On the bright side one of the cards I made to fuck with it is Renew so at least I can use that shit elsewhere.

I feel like Hearthstone got it best, give a ranked win a full value like a star instead of a number or something of the like, this whole thing with CDPR and not knowing how to adjust their numbers accordingly where their too high or too low is going to bite them in the ass and it currently is also igniting reddit on fire.

It literally all depends on the meta, on what's being played and the other cards in the deck.
Remember when everyone was bitching about cow tossers being the best bronze in the game, or Auckes being a silver Radovid, or Assire having too much strength for no reason, or Joachim de Wett being too much of a tempo play, or NG as a whole having way too much thinning which made them draw the entirety of their deck each game, or Vahnemar being by far the best mage in the game, or Vicovaros """"countering the entire faction into non-existence""""? Yeah, me neither.
>>
>>180345718
The fact that it only took golems to make NG go to non-existent means that NG wasn't that strong anyway.

But honestly, NG is still very viable. Stop using the Golems with Calveit and there are a lot of options open. The Letho buff was massive.

Not just golems, most of the cards were nerfed.

Also, the reason is not played is because fuckers milled the cards.

Draug seems like he would be pretty great in a Skellige deck. I don't understand how his ability fits in with monsters. He has no thematic nor mechanical synergy with any of their shit.

No, Rethaz, meta was more diverce before the patch. We're looking forward a new one and fully support you though.

You'll probably get a bunch of dramatic responses a la "le CDPR killed le game" but this meta is honestly much more bearable. It couldn't be much worse than last patches' meta though, so that's hardly a strong statement. Still many unfun or cancerous decks out there. Still not as good as the meta in late closed beta. But I feel that they are slowly getting there. My only worry is that the introduction of new cards will send us back to 0

Not really.Several of the buffs/nerfs went too far and a lot of the current viable decks aren't really fun to play or play against.

well, it makes decision making faster and it also gives you info that the game doesn't normally provide by any means, like displaying actual base strength of buffed units, so by definition it offers you an edge.

Sapko lived in a communist sattelite state. He based his social commentary in the Witcher solely on WW2 and Polish-Ukrainian conflicts.

They show the base strength of units, which the game doesn't.
They keep track of winrate between decks.
They give info about the % of the factions you've encountered.

desu, they are all things that should already be in the game, but they are not, so people use external resources.

Overall, is better to use, but obviously they shouldn't be allowed in tournaments.

this deck is unexpectedly good, even if they steal your queensguards it's not really a huge deal, since they are only a "secondary" focus of the deck, while they enemy is going to lose tempo trying to steal them. it gets down to around 3-4 cards left in the deck with not a huge amount of effort, and regularly getting captains into the 17-18 range.

it does get buttfucked by scorch, but i've only once seen that happen from some weird scoia deck that played shirru.

and man, the temp swings you can bring out consistently are just insane

CDPR are doing SO much atm. When you make change you will make mistakes. Is the bear and the new mmr system mistakes? I don't know, but probably. What we don't want to do is to start an outrage whenever CDPR makes a mistake because that would make them stop doing anything.
I feel very comfortable that CDPR will turn this game into an amazing MTG, probably the best online MTG ever.
And they are so generous too. I currently have a lot of scrapes because they made changes to a lot of cards IN BETA.
We are in beta and this game is doing so well. I know that most people expect a lot because CDPR seems so professional and because people carry expectations from other games like HS. Just remember that Naxx was not in beta and it took Blizzard 3-4 months to fix Undertaker.
TLDR: CDPR should keep changing a lot of stuff and make mistakes to improve this game. If you don't like that start playing when beta is over!

So Sunday afternoon I was playing Gwent before before my Father's Day activities began. My last match I was using a Kambi deck where we made it to round 3, I had three cards remaining in my deck. Kambi and two other cards that I cannot recall. I renewed Avalaac'h and Lady Luck was not on my side. With one card left and that card being Kambi and with me not having another way to draw from my deck I was expecting to lose but since this was a ranked match I had to play it out! In short I managed to win by having 2 axemen be buffed up by white frost. When I managed to pull this win out of no where I did a short celebration and shot out of my chair and decided that was a good way to end my Gwent session. Little did I know my left lung had collapsed during my celebration. I had to go to the hospital where they inserted a chest tube into me (which actually was not helping at a timely manner since the hole in my lung was so big) so the doctor suggested a surgery where they cut out any blebs they find and then close the holes while also taking a rough surface to my lung so that it irratates and heals/scars onto my chest cavity. I had the surgery done about 12 hours ago and I'll I'm wishing I had was a Gwent mobile app so I could get my daily rewards still haha

TL;DR: won a Gwent match I should've lost and ended up having my lung collapse in celebration of my victory.

tibor got nerfed to 23, why should hjalmar not be nerfed to be in line?
SK players really are the true cancer killing the game, saying and doing anything to prevent balance changes that aren't nerfs to other factions and buffs to SK, since they're so weak.

>>180376506
You're supposed to save the nekkers for round 3. Plus you can get a bigger ekimmara from other ways. Having a 3rd vran just isn't warranted.

Hjallmar is 25 plus target for your axemen to grow off of.
It's literally 25 str gold with an upside while Tibor is 23 while giving away card advantage.

Skellige nerf when?

Is a 10 points swing.
Tibor is always a 23, unless the opponent passed.
>>180377134
If the opponent is NR, a siege support makes Hjalmar shit.
If the opponent is NG, they can buff it with ambassadors.

Leave your bubble, monsterfags.

If they nerf Hjalmar base strength then they'll have have to nerf Undryk strength too, making it much, much easier to kill (Aka 2-3 points)

Monsters weren't that great last patch.

It was spell ST, Hunter SK and Calveit NG on the top of the ladder.

But Spell ST got nerfed so now it's only decent and utter trash against anyone who's played against it often enough.

Monster just got overbuffed similar to Skellige. The only difference being Skellige was already strong. Now Monsters Tier 1 and Skellige is absolute god tier.

Skellige should be brought down two notches, Monsters 1, and ST and NR should be brought up to speed again. I think that would honestly fix diversity.

They can't.
You can't make Hjalmar 10 points cause that's how he was in early days of the CB and it was shit. Literally shit. He wasn't even played in Harald decks. Because you are making a a golden card a 5 points swing. That means, that card, in a vacuum, is 5 points, cause it will always spawn a LoU. CDPR has been trying to give cards a minimum value, for example, Xathisius. He always had high strength in case he could be a dead card.

If you make Hjalmar a 10, then then lord of Undyk would have to be a 2 or a 3.
>>180379468
Wrong.
Monsters, both in the consume and weather variant, have always been at least good if not great.

SK wasn't buffed, it was mainly nerfed. The only buff being the Bears going from 4 to 6. And again, the only reason why the became so prominent is because of Monsters.
Monsters and Harpy eggs are the reason you see so many SK bears.
NR doesn't give a shit, NG doesn't give a shit. ST... well, they are shit, so it doesn't really matter what deck they face, they need luck anyway.
>>
>>180379627
Garunah hit rank 1 with reveal Nilfgaard. The top ranks are always a microcosm in pretty much every game.

Foglet monsters was good for a while because people didn't tech against it and it was a fairly underused strat with nekker warriors.

And as you can also see, Succubus saw quite a lot of use recently, but is already dying away because of how many people are teching shackles. LC and JJ are onto new 200 IQ strats already.
>>
>>180379468
spell ST nerfs should be reverted, it's an actual counterable deck, and once you know how to beat it, the matchup is significantly easier, and at the same time, it prevents people from running brainlet decks like axemen all across the ladder.
mulligan isn't going to be viable until they add more silvers and golds, or maybe rework an existing silver and gold for ST mulligan.
ambush is trash and will always be trash.
NR machines is basically the new dwarves, where you're playing by yourself, shooting boulders and bolts off into the distance.
NG reveal is just trashed because of the loss of gold power, simply can't compete with SK golds now.
NG spys got hit the hardest, and unless the calviet golem interaction is reverted, it's never going to be played as a serious archetype, with calviet as the leader again.
consume and fog monster have always had significant counter play, and i don't notice much of a change in playing against them with this patch, besides the fact that NG no longer exists.
SK on the other hand, is just fundamentally broken in so many ways, they essentially got buffed, and all other factions were nerfed or in the case of NR, barely buffed to usability, while destroying reaver hunters, their best and most consistent combo.
bears being 6 punishes new players the most, since triss can't remove them anymore. shield maidens are bronze crones, truly ridiculous. axemen being agile and ressable, is just impossible to deal with, without NG, which is now dead.
>>
>>180379952
I see, didn't play in CB.

But Hjalmar being a fairly consistent 25 point swing seems like a fair tradeoff for making him 5 points in a vaccuum. But either way, he shouldn't be stronger than Kayran/Tibor.

And the only nerf SK got was to the Hunters. A much needed nerf because Hunter deck was the only thing that managed to match Calveit NG last patch.
>>
>>180379952
i get it, you're an SK player. you don't want your favorite toys scuffed.

>>
>>180380217
Not this guy, but idiots like you ALWAYS cry for nerfs and when CDPR actually goes through with it you complain that they overnerfed everything.

Hjalmar is okay. Maybe make him 13 strength but that's already pushing it. Tibor and Kayran should just go back to their old strength. Wildly nerfing stuff only results in factions being dead. See: Nilfgaard
>>
>>180380643
wrong, wildly nerfing every faction, and leaving the strongest faction untouched, fucks the game up the ass.
>>
>>180380734
>strongest faction untouched
Do you know why SK is the way it is right now? Because idiots like you cried about overnerfing so much that CDPR listened to the imbeciles.
>>
>>180380643
Actually nerfing Golems is what killed Nilfgaard and Golems weren't really a big deal to me because they just died off to Rain or some shit

I guess this is what hapens when you balance your game around feedback from redditors who only play about an hour a day, you kill factions that were fine and buff others that were cancer
>>
>>180380217
Sigh...

>>180380216
Oh yeah, the nerf to the hunter was obvious. I was expecting it to get regressing, but never thought they were going to remove the veteran tag.
> But Hjalmar being a fairly consistent 25 point swing seems like a fair tradeoff for making him 5 points in a vaccuum.
Is not.
He is not a 25 point swing anyway. He is a 10. Killing the LoU is the other 10 extra points.
>>
>>180380974
didn't complain at all last patch, had a lot of fun in fact, great deal of diversity on the ladder compared to the current patch.

Relax your sphincter, anon.

>ither the changes need to be reverted,
What changes, exactly?
Changes to NG?
I agree.
Of course I agree. 90% of the nerfed cards need their old power back.

The problem with the golems wasn't the 9 points power, it was the +3 deck thinning.

if golems are a problem, then shield maidens are a problem, if all forms of deck thinning are subject to some sort of arbitrary rule, where the cards must be of little to no value, why does SK get a pass, when they can throw 12 points down consistantly with discard, and get crones level power, with removal, in the form of shield maidens, which are bronze just like golems, and are autoinclude in every single form of SK archetypes?

You guys are idiotic

This meta is not diverse at all

ST is literally fucking dead, no one plays it competitively, not even Dwarves despite how good their silvers are.

NG is also on the bubble dead, one streamer making a deck top 500 /=/ diversity when it's absent from most if not all of ladder.

Monsters hasn't moved, it's become the new NG with it's buff a Resilient minion plan and Dagon is still cancer.

SK has like 8 decks that work, this make equal diversity for the faction but one faction being so good that it can so many varieties isn't healthy for an ecosystem of 5 factions is it?

NR is a laughable joke. They resolved NR's problem by slapping a tag on cards that makes 0 sense to the card's flavor. Sure it works, but it's only duct tape to a overflowing dam of problems.

The funny thing is that if they had gone through with the first iteration of the patch the game would have been mostly fine
>>
>>180381986
Just today I had following sample size:

2x NG Spies
1x NG Reveal
3x NR Machines
2x SK Discard
3x SK Axemen
3x SK Queensguard
2x MN Consume
2x MN Weather
3x ST Spells
2x ST Dwarves
2x ST Mulligan

At rank 16. So at least for me, it is much more diverse than last patch. Yeah, SK is overrepresented, but that always happens to one faction. ST was actually the 2nd most played faction.

Sorry to hijack but I picked fiend earlier over olgerid. I've only got 1 monster deck which is dagon fog. Did I fuck up? I picked fiend purely because he was a monster
>>
Dandelion or Rainfarn?

I don't really play either faction but I'm assuming it's Dandelion?
>>
>>180389859
Fiend is good, all the locking units are worth running.
>>
>>180389859

Fiend is probably better overall if you play monsters but olgerid is a pretty good card and can fit in a bunch of decks
>>
>>180390226
Dandy's good in all NR decks, Rainfarn's decent in spy decks. Dandy is the light and the truth.
>>
>>180383329
22 cards is better than 25

its a stupid card that has been poorly balanced from the beginning

calveit got RNG added to make them worse for him which is a bad way to balance cards

morvran still runs 3 since they proc before the card draw

emhyr will never be able to use them properly
>>
>>180389859
Nah fiend is great. Olgierd was the best option for this other anon but you made the right choice... unless the 3rd card was something really good.

You are playing against bad players, then.
That's usually a -1 CA for the opponent.

Leaders tend to be a ~12-14 tempo + some other bronze = they've already beaten your score.
And winning R1 is incredibly important, since you get to decide the speed of the game.
Winning round 1 means bleeding the opponent during the second round while you prepare your final combo.

No wonder people is losing to Kambi decks, man...

Sure but people rarely expect you to just don't fight for round 1 with a SK deck. So they often play a bronze combo piece rather than their leader first.

>>180396713
Caretaker is very strong, especially since Skellige is by far the most popular faction. And they rely a lot on ressurecting their own (strong) units, so Caretaker fucks them over pretty hard.

>but she's just a generic hot redhead in the game

>>180396096
Are you sure?
NR will always open with Foltest. Always. They can then play witchers
NR is probably the one that loses the most to this, since their cards are low tempo as fuck.
Monsters will always play Harpy. That's 6 points. Then they can either play Crones or play Dagon into fog for 6 + 6 + 6.
NG can play their leader for crazy ass tempo, either Calveit ot Morvran.
ST has leader + Saskia.
SK has Crach into Morkarg.

Just my experience, you can't win much from big swing anymore, since the game is full of them, and usually is better to win round 1 one card down than to lose round 1.
Specially now that spies are back.
>>
What's the order of faction population now?

SK > Monsters >>> NR > NG > ST?

I also have succubus, but I'm not sure where to use it
I have okay consume deck and decent cards for eredin
Any tips? Thanks
>>
>>180397201
NR is the toughest, sure. But they are generally the toughest for weather+axemen because of the armor spam. I still have like a 50% winrate against them, though.

Monsters will almost ALWAYS play Harpy into a Vran Warrior. And that is just barely not enough power to beat 19.

I haven't seen too much Dagon lately. But they usually try to keep Dagon for round 2 or 3 from my experience.

Against Crach it's almost always just 1 card but I generally don't seem to have any difficulty beating a Crach/Mork deck. They usually play little anti-weather. They have healers, but they don't stop my axemen from buffing.

Spellateal is pretty random but if I get Donar or Mardroeme (or both) it's usually easy. I haven't faced many other ST decks. For mulligan with trappers you definitely don't want to play any axemen on round 1 because they just die to the bomb without a single veteran tick. Dwarfs usually run a ton of weather clear, so they can actually be kind of difficult to beat.
>>
>>180397736
Succubus is yet another card that sees a lot of play right now because it fucks over Skellige (especially if it steals Morkvarg).

Consume is strong right now. Eredin doesn't really see much play with actual Wild Hunt cards, but some people use him just for the single weather effect from hound.

I secretly really want to make a pure wild hunt deck work, though.
>>
>>180397736
just use it to steal morkvarg and axemen
>>
>>180397980
I'm new so I rarely see Skellige, but thanks for the tip, I'll note this

>stacking every unit in one row
you asked for it
>>
>>180401692
vran + harpy egg + celano harpy + 4 archas

that's how consume monsters work unless you have two vrans and you have no plans for round two. even then you need consumable units in the melee row because eating the siege row isn't a bright idea

either way the archas spawn on the ranged row. that's how consume monsters work
>>
>>180401594
Arachas variant is shit, just play ekimmaras

They lose to mardroeme but at least you don't auto lose to weather.
>>
>>180401827
I play nekker, vrans and ekimaras
its not always easy but I shit on skellige
>>
>>180402309
i have two ekimaras to pass my vrans to the next round or eat harpy eggs if SHTF and two clear weathers but that's not the point. the point is you can have 3 axemen, that can boost themselves in a SINGLE TURN for + 1 for every enemy hit. combine that with 3 bears that hit every ally you spawn and priestesses and weather and you get a broken faction. they're better than any gold or silver the game has to offer

is there a single soul in the entire thread who plays gwent because he liked witcher 3 and not because he got bored with heartstone?

gwent in W3 was extremely simple (almost none of the gwent standalone mechanics exist in W3 gwent. most units don't even have a special ability of some sort). kambi was an "avenger" card that gave you 0 point when you played it and next turn it would become a legendary ("gold") hemdall card

villentermeth was a meele scorch card that lets you scorch the highest meele unit the opponent had on his row if it had a combined strength of 10 or more, if there is more than one unit that is the highest (tie) it would scorch ball of them
