Discussion Dwarven Skirmisher is ridiculous

5 Upvotes

Two targeted 3point pings on a 4 unit card. The amount of value this card generates is hard to quantify. It can kill engines, float damage, setup big removal plays. It's weak body is actually an advantage too because it makes it useless to remove with typical 4damage cards.

This should easily be a 2power 5 provision card.

Discussion Adda Shupe Thrive deck nerf suggestions

0 Upvotes

heyo! this deck has seen top level play for several months now, and with the shupe nerf revert it became even stronger than before (though not as strong as when it first emerged about 6 months prior).

it’s a very strong deck, with a great control suite, whike it’s strategy can perform well in a short and long run in equal measure. It’s very hard to beat this deck when it’s piloted by a strong player. At the same time, it’s a very skill dependent deck, so it’s not the worst deck of all time to be over performing.

i want to start a conversation about how it can be tuned down, while offering 3 of my suggestions as options.

1) nerf Alpha Werewolf By provision.

its the main source of carryover in the deck, and the reason why Adda can play for 20+ points. This nerf would also hit midrange fruits of ysgith decks and Cockatrice beast decks

2) nerf the carapace leader.

This would also hit Selfeater-based relicts, both the GN version and the regular, as well as ogroids and Kelly.

Ogroids can probably survive the nerf without noticing it, while Kelly could be buffed by provision to compensate. not sure what to do with Selfeater relicts, I don’t think they deserve any nerfs.

3) nerf Adda Striga by power. This one is more significant than it may seem, as it means that Adda can no longer eat Thing from the Box with just 2 leader charges, and could no longer eat the djinn spawned by the Puzzlebox without a leader at all.

this nerf would reduce Ada’s point output, true, but more importantly it would move the entire deck further into combo territory, as you would want to use enchanted armor stratagem or Vial of forbidden knowledge to boost your Adda, therefore increasing the amount of setup necessary for the deck to work.

the main benefit of needing the deck by provision is that it’s already quite tight on its budget, and 1 leas provision likely means dropping Maxii, Dorregarey, or endrega Larva, which lowers consistency, control or r1 point output respectively.

I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on the matter. Personally I love this deck very much, but sometimes it does feel like You win games by a landslide.

Discussion People playing Mill Nilfgaard in 2026, grow up

0 Upvotes

Logging onto Gwent in the year 2026 to load up a Nilfgaard mill deck.

These people must simply lack the basic human emotion of happiness.

Came back to Gwent after 3 years off to have some fun, and as soon as I hit around rank 5 it's a mill deck from Nilfgaard every other game, not enjoyable in the slightest.

Just killing this game.

Question Custom Gwent art book – looking for ideas and experiences

0 Upvotes

I like the official Gwent art books but buying them all together is too expensive for me plus I have different preferences when it comes to the specific artworks and how they are curated. Has anyone here ever made their own custom art book?

Basically, I wanted to keep the faction-based structure. But focus my highlights on specific cards (Vilgefortz, Yaga, Whoreson Junior, Gezras, etc.) and group together archetypes the way I used to play them like Crimes, Vampires, Assimilate and so on. So it's also a kind of personal keepsake for my favorite cards. Open to ideas!

Question Anyone else can't connect?

29 Upvotes

I'm playing the Android version of Gwent on my tablet. First thing this morning, I tried to queue for a game and got an error "game version no longer supported". I played an AI game no problem. I tried queueing again and this time it just spun forever.

I've checked for updates, force stopped the app, cleared cache and restarted the tablet. Now it simply won't connect on startup with "check your internet connection". My connection is fine.

Servers down? Can't think of any other explanation.

EDIT: Glad it's not just me. And now the withdrawals start...

Question Physical Gwent cards question

• Upvotes

I somehow just now found there is an officially licensed gwent set on Amazon! Maybe because I just started replaying the remastered version. But I have a question if anyone has got this and can answer.

The set comes with 400 cards, all from in game, and all factions, but if I want to play this with my son, does he also need a game set? Or are there enough cards for two decks? I mean in the sense of could we both play northern realms decks? Or if I buy one set, will we both have to play different factions? And are there multiple copies of cards like in game? I would assume so given there are 400 cards? Thanks!

Discussion Would Thronebreaker/Gwent Make a Good Asynchronous PVP Game?

6 Upvotes

Its been a couple of years since Gwent went into maintenance mode and recently I had the thought that the gameplay of Thronebreaker/Gwent(mostly Thronebreaker) could be turned into an async PVP game. The different locations from Thronebreaker could be considered a chapter/day and have PVE roguelike gameplay before an actual player at the end of the chapter/day. Gwent could also be a good baseline to build an autobattler off of because the board is supposed to represent a battlefield.
