Those dicks just nerfed discard skelliges trump cards! Pirate captains are so worthless now. How do you even use them anymore?

Discard seems pretty donezo in general, the spellatel deck in particular eats it alive

They boost themselves by what you discarded last turn? So if you have two of them in hand you have to discard -> pirate captain -> discard again -> captain? That is very clunky!! and awful past round 1!!

It definitely seems like an oversight and I expect it won't last past this patch. But it's a fun deck to play

Are there any halfway decent beginner decks that aren't monsters? I played a bit of Wild Hunt and Dagon weather a while back and want something new, but I've apparently forgotten how to play this game and I'm losing all the time. I have tried a NG spy deck and a ST spell deck, but I barely know how the darn things work let alone what my opponents are doing.

I went 9 and 1 with the spellatel netdeck tonight, the one I lost was me throwing. It's kinda unfair but it felt great, high five to whoever thought the new Stammelfords was a good idea

The new Stammelford's is a conditional Yennefer with carryover. It's...ridiculous.

So what are people's views on CDPR wanting to make some esports stuff/events for Gwent? Like it was obviously coming a mile away but are people interested in that sort of stuff?

Will be fun to watch, at least the last tournaments had some good stuff. Pro Ladder starts this Friday officially so it's going to be interesting to see how popular it gets, and if those folk that all grinded to 4.2k at the end of the season will enjoying it once they find out that there isn't any actual reward, other than competing for a spot on Open/Challenger. Though Pro Ladder might end up more diverse than regular one, due to players having to use all 5 factions if they want to actually get anywhere.

I'm really excited about all of these changes and new cards. Granted I'm a Monsters/Dwarves player who avoided Skellige because Herald was bad, so I'm probably satan and the patch is likely bad.

I'd be a bit worried about queue times in the pro ladder. The legend ladder works in Hearthstone because the game has millions of players, so even the very top is thousands strong. This game has probably about 500k, with maybe a few percent of them at 4.2k and above. The decision to lock the pro ladder for the whole season was stupid. Anyone who reaches 4.2k or whatever the limit is should be able to join at any time.

MarshyMcFly posted:Anyone know some good new decks post patch with monsters or skellige? It turns out KAMBI is back for Skellige if you love a great troll deck. You can eat the golden rooster with a bloodcurdling roar, and when the board is reset you'll only be 5 points behind (they get Hemdall, but you get a bear now). There are videos popping up of people having success with Kambi/Queensguard decks, just save 1 priestess of freya in your hand for use after the Kambi to summon up the whole Queensguard again. https://clips.twitch.tv/OptimisticCourageousQueleaRalpherZ

MarshyMcFly posted:Anyone know some good new decks post patch with monsters or skellige? Monsters feels a bit rough at the moment, but there's potential in a Deathwish deck with the new cards. Old Speartip is an MVP gold with the changes to the game, but monsters were sidegraded so hard it's difficult to judge what's effective. Saying even that I'm probably lying, optimized Monsters will defiantly be less potent than they were last patch.

Flipswitch posted:Wow Menno got a probably deserved nerf but I love that card. Menno had to be changed; with Infiltrators and with even the nerfed-to-gently caress Letho being vulnerable now, he would have been way too overpowered with his old ability. His new one is still quite powerful, given that with an Infiltrator he can nuke any enemy unit (even golds). Infiltrator + Treason is also a potentially interesting combo...

The problem being that Treason bronze and str cap is way too lame, you might as well run Nauzica Calvary and hit 7 str units that you flip with Infiltrator. Having fun with Fringilla instead of Treason, while we remain in scorch/gigni offseason. Though once those are back, silver slots for NG spies will look pretty much the same as they were before. Peter, Assire, Cantarella, Joachim, Roach, but now with Caellach instead of Vanhemar, or Auckes instead of Roach if you're an extremely boring person.

I've never been a big fan of cards that have too many necessary conditions to be useful and Treason suffers from that. Your target needs to be spying, bronze, and 10 strength or less. It often requires another card entirely just to set up, and a spying unit that you mark for theft can be boosted over 10 value to deny the play you just set up. It's just too easy to be stuck with Treason as a completely dead card in round 3 or only being able to pull over a junk 2 strength bronze spy of your own. Why it can't target silver spies is a mystery. Cantarella was already boosed to 11 value, so you wouldn't be able to grab her as is. It is the most liberating feeling to not give a poo poo about Roach or Imperial Golems in my opening draws. You can actually look for cards you want instead of focusing entirely on things you need to get rid of.

Has anyone played with Tuirseach Veteran? It looks fun but I doubt it can out do the sheer value that just playing queensguard gets, while still being just as vulnerable to getting dunked on by anything that touches your graveyard. I guess let's less vulnerable to tremors and lacerate...? E: Every time I look at a card in Skellige that would be strong against tremors I just imagine a sage using thunder to remove that minion instead... It took them like 3 or 4 nerfs total to understand how good Priestess of Freya was in the beta, and then they basically printed an arguably better version of the card for ST. Sage should at least banish the cards it resurrects. Minera fucked around with this message at 21:07 on Aug 30, 2017 |

I don't think Sage or Tremors are the big culprits, but Elven Mercenary which makes it very easy for ST to start pumping Elementals, and then CDPR's bizarro love for Dol Blathana Defenders.

General Morden posted:funnily enough mercs wouldn't be a problem if they weren't nerfed to 1 str Yeah that was what I was thinking. I find new tremors a fun if odd card, but ST has one too many tools and to many cheap ways to generate Elementals, while for other factions it requires a lot more setup. That they can do it by themselves without your input is maybe a bit too much.

The problem being that Treason bronze and str cap is way too lame, you might as well run Nauzica Calvary and hit 7 str units that you flip with Infiltrator. Yeah, Treason should really work on silvers at least (not golds, though, that'd just be silly). Letho really needs some fixing as well; he no longer has any value when used on your side, other than to make a bigger Igni/Scorch/Dbomb target (and maybe even kill one of your active units if you don't have a good place to put him), and his limited value when used offensively is now entirely dependent on combining him with one of a few other specific silver or gold cards. Trading two golds or a gold and a silver for two dead units (that have to be adjacent to each other, to boot) is kind of a lovely deal.
