I actually get a little disappointed when I take an incredibly stupid win and the GG comes regardless. The two mortal sins of GGs are a.) not GGing when you win and b.) not GGing someone who played vanilla Geralt.

Up Circle posted:can someone explain in tiny baby words how yaevinn is good because im convinced he's a spot that could be used on literlaly any other card a scoiatael deck could field unless im in the situation where i need to lose a round The value of having a spy after winning round 1 was slightly less for a few days when you could somewhat reliably force a card out from your opponent by open passing r2 after taking r1, but now that harpy eggs, morkvarg, and dwarves are all over the place the spies have gained extra value again. They're actually better now than they ever were in a lot of ways even if nothing is as stupid as old weather in terms of rewarding CA. Frightener is especially unfair thanks to Kayran, and because it's a 10 str spy with a beneficial effect. No Wave fucked around with this message at 23:03 on May 31, 2017 |

To get an idea of how much golds have been power creeped, I haven't seen Yenncon played once since OB (recently hit level 10), and I didn't see enough geralts and trisses to think it was a question of scarcity. Part of it is weathers doing what she does better, another part is that even over 8 turns she usually won't get above the 14-16 power you can reliably get with some faction golds. Neutral golds that fit in a lot of decks are now by and large weaker than broadly useful faction golds like Zoltan, Kayran, Tibor, Hjalmar, and maybe Philippa (in general NR golds are blah tbh). That's not a bad thing of course. No Wave fucked around with this message at 23:29 on May 31, 2017 |

You get about 120 exp per win dependong on length and it takes at least 6000 exp to reach level 10.

LupusAter posted:What's the best neutral gold to craft first? I'm leaning towards Ciri Dash or YenCon, just to have an option for every faction (I only opened gold monsters). Thoughts? Ciri dash is very bad (but fun in a way) unless someone has figured out a nilfgaard deck for her or something. No Wave fucked around with this message at 23:45 on May 31, 2017 |

Yenn's not wrong. Boar is used in the most broken deck around at the moment but doesn't lend much to deckbuilding outside of that imo. I still really like Keira but a lot of people think she's not worth it, and she's part of a faction that has one extreme cheese deck and seems totally disadvantaged otherwise. Comparing most NR bronzes to other factions is just a depressing exercise.

Every fifth game against Nilfgaard they reveal your hand and you realize that it actually does give them a pretty big advantage. The other four games they reveal their own hand and that somehow gives them an even bigger advantage.

Quaint Quail Quilt posted:I need tips for the 6th monster challenge Dagon, it's driving me insane, I have 3 gryfins and 3 clear sky's, trying to run some potions scorch, swipe or whatever beginner deck mostly I wish I could mill, I could probably craft another card or 2.. Northern Realms seems to work well. I made one with all commons/starters and just tested it out and it worked first try (I drew ok).  The AI is bugged with redanian knights and will fog them, which ends up buffing them. Plan is to keep redanian knights in hand, mull all but one reaver hunter, keep a few first lights, then whatever. Ideally you'll get some weather clearing guys. Round 1 you play the knights and let the AI glitch out while you do whatever, play trebuchets and protect them (it doesn't matter). You and the AI will probably play to the last two cards or so but you'll likely win. Round 2 pass. Round 3 play the reaver hunter then henselt leader ability. If you have better silvers/golds feel free to use them but Sile is very nice in this deck, keep her.

You're missing that he used summoning circle to clone nekker warrior, decoyed/possibly mediced the warrior a few times, then henselted out the hunters. He "only" needs to bounce nekker warrior 3 times to get 10 hunters, and I think he highrolled the medics in a huge way.

Rot Tosser's good but the only cards that need to be adjusted to put nilfgaard in line are Vivovaro Novice and Imperial Golems. Imperial Golem is just the dumbest card in the game, the patches the pirate of Gwent, and the only reason I imagine they printed it is because they didn't think NG would be good otherwise. Maybe they wouldn't be without them, I don't know.

Rot Tossers were the same when Nilf was bad. New patch comes, Nilfgaard gets an autoinclude bronze card that's so overpowered it can't actually be evaluated against any other card. Rot Tossers are the problem? Rot Tossers are fun, and they are the sort of card that should be the strongest bronze Nilfgaard has.

Electronico6 posted:They ban people. They talked about it in some of the first Polish dev streams. Because before you could give GG's if the game was only 1 round, so people forfeited right on the mulligan screen, and the usual reaction is "thanks I guess" and just pressed GG button. So they changed being able to GG on just a 1 round game, then banned the more extreme cases.

Magic Underwear posted:Operator seems much too strong for a neutral. Practically every deck has a few bronzes that are useless without surrounding synergies, so it ends up being this brainless autoinclude with only very rare downside (mirror match where opponent has terrible draw and you fix it for them). I don't mind strong neutral cards but they shouldn't be both strong and generally applicable. Gwent does not need Dr. Boom.

You're right. Golems are that broken. Side note, rally was nerfed a bit since end of cb - end of cb rally pulled your top bronze, new one pulls a random bronze.

Lots of Nilf decks were running 28 cards in the last week. There's no reason to encourage people to make big decks, I don't understand why this is something anyone would want. More cards in general? Yeah, that I want. gently caress Reno everyone hated him by the end.

Double Bill posted:There's not really enough cards and synergies that draw cards currently, besides Emissary/Novice for NG. And I don't mean the Summon keyword either, but straight up cycle. They could at least add more cards with symmetrical draw, i.e. "do X and draw a card for both players" Pretty much every faction can build a deck that reliably empties their deck but there are trade-offs. This is as it should be.

Having more variety is a good thing all things considered and it's weird that you're poo-pooing something as low stakes as "making a deck arguably worse but more interesting to play as and against but still closer to viable".

Avallach is one of the most fun legendaries in the game and if you ever built your own decks you'd know that. Bitch. He is however a lame w3 character and the only good thing about him was the hilarious scene with his girlfriend. It's also crazy to think that oldvallach was an autoinclude and newvallach is niche when it implying that we value the downside of giving your opponent a single extra card at > 18 gold str.

Probably just vilg or Tibor or Vattier but the post above seems to know more what he's talking about. If you don't own them Cahir's fine, buffs your spotters by 3 each and does fire scorpion stuff I've just felt over-revealed before and I personally put a huge premium on golds being good r3 (ciri being the only exception).

Fair for a faction gold when you think about it. Coral is a gold and reduces cards by half their strength, letho + dbomb is two cards and reduces cards by all their strength.

Locke Dunnegan posted:I wonder if they could buff their strength to 5-6 and do something like "Orders: Summon from your deck, and Destroy other Ally [whatever their name is] Golems." Provides less power but more thinning than Saskia, and thinning by losing bronzes is probably better than thinning by a gold. Saskia does give Roach Orders, basically, though.
