Play Ciri to give yourself a 15-20 point lead and watch the other player descend into indecisive anguish. Do they go down 2 more cards to win the round at huge card cost but deny you Ciri back? Or do they pass giving you the easy first round and also your Ciri back as card advantage. Bring along Roach's weak rear end for another 4 points unto the decision ledger.

Uh other way around. Ciri returns to your hand when you LOSE the round.

I've been using this Monsters consume deck to great success. The matchup against Dagon is a bit rough but it does really well against everyone else. The only issue I have with the deck is that sometimes you get screwed in the mulligan but usually it's fine.

Also Grave hag is really underrated.

No, decks will almost always go for the minimum amount of cards to increase consistency. The only ones that wouldn't are decks that have lots of ways to deckthin but there aren't quite enough cards in Gwent yet to do that for 30+ card decks.

The difference is that those golems come out in addition to Calveit's ability.

gently caress these stupid goddamn Kambi decks, even with shackles they have like 3 ways to unlock them.

Every game devolving into "play some gigantic bullshit card right at the very end of the game that can't be answered" is really lame. Oops, you spent the entire round building a 50 point lead? Welp haha here's a single card to completely negate every play you made this round.

If you can, shackle Hjalmar instead of Kambi.

I really don't understand why they switched Frost and Rain's effects, especially without completely reworking Caranthir/Nithral to compensate.

Anyway Bear got buffed by 1 but it doesn't affect spawned units now which was the main thing that made it insane. It'll still be played because it still ends up generating great value but it won't be as oppressive.

I am so mystified why they decided to make it so Calveit can't pull golds anymore. Golems not actively loving with his ability is a sensible change, but hardly balance out his loss of gold pulling or even simply seeing them to better predict future draws. Was Calveit's 45% win percentage just too oppressive? Or was making Calveit progressively shittier the only idea they could come up with to make someone/anyone play Emyr? Reveal is looking pretty good though!

Yeah one of the biggest reasons to play him in the first place was to be able to know what the next 2 cards in your deck are, so you can manipulate what you draw with Cantarella/Cahir/ect. I bet Emhyr will see a lot more play after this patch.

You don't have to worry about the other player taking your own Regis Higher Vampire anymore. Also you can still renew opponent's Succubus/Letho because it's in your own graveyard(but not your own Succubus/Letho).

Succubus is still gonna be really, really good when your opponent's doesn't have a D. Shackles. The change just makes it so you can't immediately un-lock it with Fiend/D. Shackles to counter that.

Succubus currently goes off even when both players have passed. It's a fun way to bamboozle someone. Normally the 2nd pass immediately ends the round and end of turn effects don't go off.

Apparently the unit debuffed by Serrit keeps that power if it's mulliganed away. I learned this after my opponent used Marching Orders(presumably to get Grave Hag) but got the Arachas Behemoth I debuffed earlier. :v:

Huh, just had someone playing a Calveit deck play back to back Geralt: Ignis against me, as in they were both on the board at the same time. I've never seen that happen, and I can't think of how it's possible. I wasn't paying super close attention but is there some way to clone a gold card like that that I'm just blanking on?

Johnny or Treason?

I don't understand what just happened. I played Udalryk and got the choice of Clan Dimun Pirate and Ciri:Dash. I picked Clan Dimun Pirate but got Ciri:Dash in my hand instead, and nothing went into my graveyard. The hell?

Ok I found out what happened. What Udalryk actually does is discard a card and then draw the top card of your deck. Since Ciri: Dash goes back into your deck there's a chance it can be the top card.

What other faction could they possibly use if they still want to draw all their characters from the games/books? The only thing I can think of is separating the Wild Hunt from Monsters and making it it's own faction. Well there's also Toussaint but they've said it's going to be part of Nilfgaard. The only other option is making their own lore and characters for something like Zerrikania.
