I can't use those on PS4. That seems a legitimate advantage for PC players.

Alternately, I'm pretty sure the PS4 doesn't have cross platform play, so nobody has an advantage over you.

Well, they track the opponent's play as well, which can help figure out their deck build. Like, until I see a third of a bronze I'm clutching my Scorch with white knuckles.

i really hope the card descriptions are going to get fixed at some point. i just lost a game because "deal 3 damage" means "deal three damage to an enemy" without any indication on some cards. this sort of stuff kills my desire to play if i'm completely honest.

Played a bit today and won a bunch with my nilfgaard reveal deck, it's pretty powerful. I'm bad at playing northern realms though, took me forever to get 5 wins for the quest I'm saving scraps now to craft the usurper for a fun deck based on the create mechanic. I also want to make a dragon theme deck later on when I have more cards. Simone Poodoin fucked around with this message at 21:39 on Jan 20, 2018 |

Usurper Uma Avalla'ch the Sage Cahir Muzzle Summoning Circle Stregobor Dazhbog Runestone Dorregagray Portcullis Decoy Doppler x 3 Vicovaro Medic x 3 Slave Driver x 3 Ointment x 3 Magne Division x 3 Always Mulligan away ointments, use a couple slave drivers in round one so that you have something to resurrect with your ointments, and if you win round one don't be afraid to play the Usurper in round two so that you don't brick Cahir in round three. Oh, and if it's round three and you have a Magne Division in your graveyard and one in your hand, don't forget that when you play the one in your hand you should use the ointment to resurrect the one in your graveyard, and then use the ointment that that one grabs to resurrect a unit. It's three points that is easy to miss. rydiafan fucked around with this message at 01:22 on Jan 21, 2018 |

Has anyone here got past rank 19? I’ve never been able to make it past there but I got a jump start on this season so I thought I’d try again. I’ve been playing so much I could probably make any meta deck by now lol. Anyone have any suggestions of deck lists?

I don't look at deck lists because I like building them myself even if they're not optimal, but I've been having lot's of success with a reveal based deck, off the top of my head it's something like this: Voorhis Cahir Letho Vattier Cynthia Serrit Hefty Helge Albritch Fire scorpions Mangonells Venendal Elite Spotters Daerlan Soldiers Master of disguise With the remaining spots filled by whatever because I don't have a more useful card for the theme (such as henry var artre for example) In general I can gently caress up their board with mangonells and fire scorpions and force a pass on round 1, then give them round two and destroy them again in round 3 by concealing and then reviving voorhis or revealing again some other way. The Cynthia/Venendal combo is powerful too most of the time. I need to tweak my list to be more reliable, I almost enjoy the deck building/tweaking aspect more than actually climbing the ranks.

Any advice on best way to jump in and figure out if I like it or not? the game right now is kinda dogshit because of a series of bad decisions made by CDPR, personally I would wait for the next balance patch but really there's no bad way to "jump in" because you make progress on kegs even if lose 6 matches in a row (as long as you win one round for sure) so go crazy in Ranked I guess

I'm not sure how best to describe this, so. On PS4, if you scroll down on the Gwent app before launching, there's a banner ad for the Midwinter Update. In the middle is a card I don't recognize. It's a man standing up, with a mask in his hand. Behind him is a crawling man, whose face has been mimiced for the mask. There's wooden floorboards. Any ideas?

Its nice to see the thread active again  Had some fun in ranked play ( I know impossible right?) with this match: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpBfk1eE6Mk Then this happened in a random faction challenge game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxulbBIIyRQ Sweers is just too good!

I'm having loads of fun in ranked play with my Jan Calveit witcher/alchemy deck. (viper witchers that hit for ~10 off of Mahakam ales, Ointments, and silver/gold alchemy stuff) The absolute most fun matchup must be vs. Nilfgaard spies. Most spy players just kinda automatically open with an emissary and kill it with their Impera enforcers to activate a vivocario medic resurrection. Interrupting that plan by resurrecting it with an ointment is deeply satisfying. Slave driver also is able to steal their spy-activated stuff well, including their medics.

If your rank isn't as high as you want it to be this month, the only question you need to ask yourself is "am I playing enough dwarves?"

I think the reason my rank isn't higher than I want it to be is because I keep getting booted from the game over and over again in the middle of a ranked match I'd probably have won anyways!

Patch on the china server with some upcoming changes, take it all with a grain of salt, changes pending, etc. https://www.reddit.com/r/gwent/comments/7u104j/leaked_upcoming_patch_in_cn_server/ Some highlights include reddit calling commanders horn overnerfed and dead forever (up to you how true that is), point drops on some dwarfs, veterans back to soldier instead of support, Iorveth: meditation only can force duels on the same row, summoning circle not working on card spies. Something I've heard a lot of, though I personally disagree, is that row locks should come back. Maybe my memory is off, but that just made weather better, and igni and casual lacerates going in every deck. I felt like I lost games just because they had weather or rot tosser and put it on a row and I couldn't do anything about it because my valuable cards had to go there. It isn't my fault that that the 'shoot cards that move' elf and the 'damage enemies on the same row' elf happen to be on the same row. I don't care at all about the 'flavour' argument, that doesn't even concern me a little. Captainicus fucked around with this message at 15:39 on Jan 30, 2018 |

Row restrictions is in the same category as gold immunity. It going away made the game strictly better, but it's further from the original Gwent so a vocal minority who hate change can't get over it.

Gold pseudo-immunity (CB) was best. Promote mechanics were, however, bad. Chorn seems like it got massacred but it may still be the most points in a replayable spell for Aglais. Iorveth med change is neat. 22 is the exact number I thought CN would go to, but being immune to gigni might make her stronger regardless. Most disappointing is Paulie not being deleted.

Obviously more stuff may change as things go along, but I wouldn't be mad to see paulie go the way of the dinosaur and become something completely different. Also hattori only works on elves because I'm tired of that combo already.

One of my favorite parts of this game (being the first ccg I have really gotten into) is to see the new archetypes and decks that come up and how they change after every patch, looking forward to seeing how this evolves. When using dwarves I would struggle against some decks due to not really having good ways to kill enemies, especially against something like consume monsters where you need to kill things before they get huge. Even then I some times won anyway through sheer point numbers. It did need to be nerfed.

CN is probably not a nerf since gigni isn't autoinclude and you could play around it anyways with if you had last say. And Paulie is a goddamn garbage silver anyways. With dorfs boosting instead of strengthening you can't res a 12 point dorf in r3 anymore so he might as well be deleted.
