I was supposed to write ''Gwent News'' but I forgot

ded game general

Why the fuck did you just copy and paste an old OP you had saved? Start over.

this game has like no cards

how can it dare to compete against Hearthstone

also arena when

cant wait to pull another queensguard from a pack today

I actually kind of like it like this. You are so few cards that you can learn every single one, so you always know what your opponent is likely to have. This lets you strategize more and play around your opponent's hand.

> that feel of relief when you stopped bothering with ranked and just learned to be satisfied with the rewards you will get for level 19 rank

Cards that should fuck off to Hearthstone:
>BTM
>Johnny
>Donar

johnny shouldn't synergize with ciri dash and donar shouldn't steal a card. besides that you're right

Aegroto Dum Anima Est, Spes Est

he cant save the dying game user

I just started today and im going through all the single player challenges to stockpile currency before i play multiplayer. Im currebtly stuck on the final boss of monsters with my skellige deck. any tips?

you mean dagon? he's the only challenging SP opponent

put more weather clears in, just for him

literally every single fucking time his last card is the gold that makes fog and a bunch of fucking enemies.

woodland spirit

get better cards and try again

Yeah, Woodland Spirit. You'll see that card a lot in Gwent, unfortunately. Dagon is a pretty difficult challenge for new players, so don't feel bad. Play some casual and get some kegs if you don't feel like you have the cards to beat him right now.

Im trying to do full SP and just buy a fuckton of kegs at once. Ill beat this shithead eventually i just need god draws

trust me on this. the only singleplayer challenge people get stuck on is last dagon

leave him for another level or two get some nice cards and come back, he will be easy peasy

Nah i beat him, i got a decent gap between us on round 2, forcing out his buffs and the rest of his hand while i passed. then on round 3 hr only had 20 points on me with woodland spirit and couldnt buff, i also baited the fog to go onto a different row. Then its just skellige ressurecting shit from the graveyard from there.

reminder it's okay to concede

It denies your cancer opponent exp

:)

I'm so tired of swarm

It's just the most brainless thing, you flood the board, wow what a strategy

I'm assuming they're not dropping the patch because they wanna see what OP shit the community throws out to counter discard/swarm res

there's no way henselt reavers is not gonna get nerfed, they're letting the community come up with "ignore board and come up with auto win combo" decks, only explanation why they're letting monster and discard run wild

one of them will be Lifecoach's brainlet dwarf deck

the top 2 decks are "leave a shit ton of bodies on board with res" (monster) and "leave a shit ton of bodies on board with a discard mechanic"
(bran)

and so far the only counter is "play solitaire with
res" (dwarves) and "play autowin combo at r3" (henselt)

either they're absolute mad-men sniffing out the dumb shit to cull it for release or they're suicidal

what community

The decks is this game make me so tired, like unironically just stress me out. It's so unfun, you can't do anything have the time because you either run some dumb fucking tech like shackles that loses you the game 95% of the time, but when you don't you run into cunt who has 0 brains who just renews triss butt every fucking round because the only thing that matters is just dumping deathwish and buffing

Throat's parched. Bone dry.

>beat monsters R1
>they drop crones
>if it was anyone else it'd be fine but they have elementals, nekkers, harpies out going into a fucking 30-40point round 2


who has fun with this? do monster players even have fun?

YOU ONLY DIE ONCE

what is a tutor card?

A card that lets you look at your deck and select a specific card. It's MTG jargon.

R*ddit unironically thinks solitaire decks are while Axemen is ""oppressive to everyone especially new players"

I hope all these swam players are enjoying their 0 ggs lmao

What that user said. Really the only full tutor in Gwent is Reinforcements, but it also kind of applies to targeted card-pulls like elf mercenary and Yaevin and shit.

I've actually been out of Magic for so long I don't even know what if any tutors it has any more. Possibly my most valuable card is a beta or some fucking thing copy of pic related but I'm not sure since I can't be bothered to look shit up.

whenever i play ng instead of dagon i get way less ggs

Oh fuck, one of the NG's im missing, thanks RNG

This is because winning against nilf is less fun than losing to monster.

Draug, hjalmer or assassination? In a keg that is

hjalmar

Hjalmar infinite times over

the patch hurt hjalmar but he still finds a home in some decks. he's just not the autoinclude he was. the other two are... uhhhh

Hjalmar easily. Draug is shit and assassination is mega-shit.

Just to hammer it home even more, Hjalmar is especially good because he works well with the starter cards too. Holger and Triss both let you pop Undvik easily. Being able to lock Undvik makes him way weaker than he used to be but he's still a playable card.

E-sports?

E-sports.

So?

REASONS FOR THE FEEBLE OF HEART

It's ok, I guess.

bump fags

>TFW you're this close to buying the starter pack for ESL
It's $5 for 10 packs of cards and a bonus legendary. I WOULD BE A FOOL NOT TO BUY IT. It might give me enough scrap to make a goblin deck, too.

when's this gamescom trash so i can understand how stupid this meta is and that the one with Calveit at the front WAS NOT AS BAD

and OLD WEATHER WAS FINE BECAUSE IT KEPT STUPID SHIT LIKE SWARM IN CHECK

>gwent will die before its even officially released

these tournaments and the next patch or two will be pretty much be the main indicators of this games "survival"

>You spent $140 on a dead card game and will be made so bitter by it that you won't be willing to spend money on Cyberpunk 2077
Although I already got burned by the Witcher board game too, so it's just stacking up.

jesus christ that bird's talons

MEAD, MORE MEAD, HA HA HA HA!

Atleast CP 2077 might be a good game

>It's another "Monster player tries to push the narrative that discard Skellige is overpowered because it regularly blows monster out of the water and nothing else" episode

Nice try you samefagging frogosting Bethesda shill.

Im actually a Northern Realms player

save me

Fucken based. Leave it to reddit to actually save the game as usual.

Face it potato-eater, Gwent is kill. The future is at the top of that mountain, only you can climb it and free yourself from the muck of Gwent.

I'm NR too, you should be fine. I got up to top 1000 north America before I stopped giving a shit playing as NR. Discard Skellige wasn't that bad, you just ideally want Keira and/or Dethmold in round 1 and if you don't get them then you need to be prepared to either light cav or pass round 1 easily.

Very believable. Is that why I'm facing the same dudes at 4.2k?

Can't wait for these new cards to arrive. I wanna make an Emhyr deck with the new beastkeeper silver to spawn Griffins to break up revive-focused decks, and to put friendly units in the opponent's graveyard so I can resurrect them with medics.

can't believe they got Marlon Brando to voice Stefan Skellen

ive being doing ok, got to like 3.2k facing a lot of monsters. still need to craft key golds still

>Running a silver to run a bronze to move a bronze from your graveyard to their graveyard so you can play a bronze to rez the bronze you already played
>Meanwhile monster has removed 30 points of power from you with weather ticks

Oh, yeah. The golds could hurt. Philipa's definitely nice for a starter but she's a bit all over the place and not super amazing against swarm decks. And going for stuff like Djikstra and Keira can feel rough since they look pretty bad on paper.

nein

/ourguy/ Petrify live boys PogChamp

it's not gonna die because it actually has a big company backing it

Yaevin, operator or grave hag?

Operator is general purpose useful in a fair number of decks, grave hag is critical to consume, Yaevin is good in most non-dwarf squirrel decks.

Since you're playing dwarf none of those fit terribly well, but Yaevin would let you expand into non-dwarf squirrel. Operator's solid for a good number of decks. Grave hag's mandatory if you want to play consume. They're all solid picks, difficult to really recommend one over the rest. Probably Operator if you're getting sick of playing squirrel. Operator also would work well in an axeman Skellige deck to go with that Hjalmar you just got.

hmm okay tyvm

Can you believe i still have found 0 fucking elven mercenaries?

I can. I pulled like 4 Lamberts out of kegs when I still had more than half the silvers in the game unopened. Shoop is a piece of shit.

I had over 150 hours in the game before I got a single Hawker Smuggler.

The grind from 4350 to 4500 is insane. 2 losses undos 6 wins

I got to level 38 before getting my first harpy so i can believe that.

I'm kind of stalling at 4150 for the same reason. It's not that severe, but 1 win will undo 2 losses. Pretty hard to maintain a 65+% winrate at this MMR.

>play meme deck with gaunter
>lose because donar steals my last card in deck

>finally put together a dwarf deck
>donar steals my AR in the first game

I salute you

I just wanted to do my dailies and yet I've seen nothing but King Bran and Dagon.

>go first

uh gwentards?

DELET THIS GWENT IS A GAME OF SKILL

>he doesn't play mini-borkh in every deck to ensure CA
lmao tbqh

should I even bother trying to climb higher than 4200 with my elfears deck

I'm so close to making a foltest highroll deck

i mean you CAN meme your way to the top but itll be a long road

Can cdpr please fire rethaz already?

scoia'tel fucking sucks, only dwarfs are kinda viable

3 scorch deck is unreliable vs monsters, worthless vs skellige discard and henselt reavers can push harder R1 than you can, while having a stronger R3

scoia'tel can't play anything else besides alternative memes like that one hawker smuggler deck

best non-dwarf I've played is a braenn/scorch bamboozle deck

>braenn/scorch bamboozle deck
That sounds fun. You got a pic or a link?

my own experience is that I only win if my opponent does a big mistake

it's so fucking weak

silvers:

braenn
yaevin


basically all you need, you can throw in anything you like for the other 4 slots. preferably big body golds. scoia'tels problem is that outside of braenn and an isengrim/spy combo, it has no major point players outside scorches, meaning it has a fucking weak R3, even if it has CA.
