Is it worth it to get the bonus level and how many games/hours in a day am I going to need to play to get the max value? First time considering buying this and I wasn't there for the previous ones so if it's going be a second job for the really cool cosmetics then I'd honestly rather not (because I'm mostly here for the cosmetics).

I really enjoyed this video. Love the speculations. I’d like to see NR adepts at 5 provisions. Viper Mentor Left as is, but Gold. Kolgrim at 10 with one armour sounds interesting. And, IMO I think Lockdown should be removed from the game, It ruins deck creativity. I think Syndicate would make a rise if it wasn’t locked, what’s the point of playing Hidden Cache. Anyway, Good stuff, thanks for the vid!
@TheOneChristo
@TheOneChristo 3 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much for the feedback! I appreciate it. Viper Mentor being changed to a gold would solve a lot of problems because you could only run 2 (1 with location) and could no longer get one from Vigo, so that would help. Lockdown absolutely crushes SY, especially just from a muscle memory perspective of taking away your hoard/tribute discounts it can really really hurt.
@gigaprojects
@gigaprojects 3 жыл бұрын
The main reason why Syndicate is so much in the woods lately is because of the Lockdown leader. L. crushes Firesworn and severely impedes other Sy leaders whereas Syndicate beats all the other NG leaders. One of the main reasons why Lockdown is still being played is because of Carapace. Yes, Ciri Dash is the most oppressive, but Carapace is probably the best all purpose leader in the game and I say this because In draft mode, Carapace has become my leader of choice. I mean you can buff three cards by three and give them Veil, which means, it puts this card out of the removal range of normal cards and prevents this card from being locked. If you choose Lockdown as Nilfgaard, this will seriously cripple your deck in terms of cutting down on your tutors and consistency but this made up by being able to crush Carapace or any highly optimized faction. The natural leader of brickgaard is Tactical decision which highly synergizes with snowdrop (if you play snowdrop and then go leader you put 18 points on the board, which is huge), so why did they ditch it for lockdown? Because stalling your opponent wins you more games than tempoing ahead. Lockdown is a symptom that something’s seriously wrong elsewhere. I’m quite disappointed with the way of the Witcher expansion - interestingly not with the normal cards but with the toxic interactions of some cards and changes which put Gwent into the wrong direction. No unit Sociatel is one of the worst offenders, as is Kelly and Madoc. Gwent is the Witcher card game, so I thought adding Witchers would be a step into the right direction. They added a bunch of really cool cards, but they don’t get played because they also buffed other cards with toxic interactions. It’s a huge shame that the only Witcher deck that works is with NR, why not with Scoiatel and Skellige? Why boost NG locks but not boost the original NG Witcher trio? It’s fun to play as or against a Witcher deck, but it’s no fun to play against toxic decks. Your thoughts?
@TheOneChristo
@TheOneChristo 3 жыл бұрын
I agree that Lockdown absolutely demolishes SY - it ruins just about all your interactions, as well as your leader, which is often your main way to drive coins. The problem with NG is all their other leaders are essentially worse than other factions, so removing their leader and disrupting them is so much more important than playing your own. I feel like Lockdown needs to exist in some way to make sure that certain things don't get it out of hand, but I don't know what you do with it? Is making the other NG leaders better a possibility? You can't really lower the number of provisions for Lockdown much lower than they already are? I didn't love the WotW expansion either, I always thought Gwent felt a bit more like chess than other card games and this expansion made it a bit more swingy, which I don't love, but that's personal opinion. I just think anything that discourages you from actually playing cards (discarding vs Kelly or No Unit, or not playing anything to copy vs Cloggers) is just not healthy for the game or the new player experience. As for the Witchers, NR really got the only cards that synergize with other Witchers, so it's the reason why the OG crew fit so nicely into that deck. It is a bit awkward since half that deck is a bunch of neutral cards and it doesn't truly feel like NR. Every other faction got other "stuff" from their Witchers (NG = clog, ST = movement, SK = self harm etc). Not sure if it was part of the design plan or just kind of how the cards fell. In any case I'm excited to see how this patch mixes things up. I think after the Viy nerf the game feels better, so hopefully 8.3 continues to push us in the right direction

@@TheOneChristo I’m very happy that they nerfed lockdown. I think all the pro players knew this in advance especially when you look at the NG decks of the last qualifier. Nilfgaard has great leaders - Tactical decision and especially double-cross (the only leader which can still play two cards in one turn). I think the pro players agree as they have turned to double-cross. I’m unhappy that instead of nerfing Witchers they nerfed uprising. I’m happy the nerf of carapace even though it makes it much less good in draft mode. Your thoughts?

@@TheOneChristo what do you think of the patch now that it’s out? IMHO some additions are nice and welcome like Anna Henrietta or Cleaver. On the other hand they just buffed the worst offender no-unit scoiatel with Eldain. To make things worse the springed version of serpent trap is a predatory dive on steroids and with Hattori you can run two of them. Also Eist is absolutely nuts and needs to be nerfed ASAP. Today I deinstalled the game.

​@@gigaprojects No unit trap ST makes me want to uninstall the game as well. I have beat it a few times using SY Crimes and NG surprisingly. I personally don't like Anna, she's a worse Angouleme, might just be because I played a lot of SY yesterday but they got nearly no value from it. Eist is also beyond stupid. I agree those two are over the top. Unseen Elder I'm still on the fence about being too good as well. If you can't answer him you pretty much lose. The biggest problem with Eist and Eldain is you can't actually stop it from happening.

I find that NR Witchers do well against lockdown. You don't NEED your leader ability and you don't have a lot of engines to lock. Something like no unit ST could also big good since there is nothing at all to lock Anything that is big points without many engines can work against it. (I realize that doesn't help a ton but that's why the deck has been pretty dominant on ladder recently)

Hey bro, I like your vids. I hope it's cool for me to give you a little bit of a critique: first the format of "7 minute intro and then just two matches" is kinda not great, you could cut the intro down to quite literally 10 seconds and then fit in a third match. But the real big critique I have (and keep in mind this just because I want to see you get better!) is that you should be more aware you're making content for youtube. Interacting with Twitch chat is fine, obviously, but when you're recording a video that you know is going to go on KZfaq maybe don't do it as much, talk more about the game and what's going on in it. Watching a video of a streamer having a conversation with chat is not very entertaining, because it's not a stream it's just a recording, y'know? Alright I've talked enough. Peace!!
@TheOneChristo
@TheOneChristo 3 жыл бұрын
I think the intro part is important, maybe not every time, but card selection does matter. I've actually thought about doing additional videos with just straight up gameplay as well, so if you want to skip the intro, or just watch gameplay you can jump to that one. I do agree the Twitch chat bit is less than ideal. In a perfect world I'd have the time to record games seperate from my stream and use those instead so it's just straight for the KZfaq recording, unfortunately I haven't found the time. I appreciate the feedback, I think your spot on and as I (hopefully) have more time, I can continue to clean this up more.

This deck looks easy to play but it is not. I am still learning when to play frost, Ge'els, Miruna. Timing is important. Play 10 games in pro rank with it and won 6. Hopefully I can reach 2450 with it. You have now done SK and Monsters. Can you share your decks from the other 2 factions that climb high in pro rank too ?

Definitely! I'm going to do Northern Realms next, but I'm still not doing great with a fourth faction. Keep an eye out for more though. A lot of the questions you have about when you play cards comes down to the matchup and takes practice. Miruna for example can be hard to play vs Symbiosis since you can get stuck with a 1 point Treant so in that matchup steal anything good, however in other matchups you can be more greedy
