I was playing consume the other day and noticed nekkars being proc'd off of, I think, effects where you choose cards out of an option like water hag and ge'els. I honestly don't get it

It's just a bug from a previous iteration of Water Hag I think.

Just crafted Toruviel and made a new deck for her. First match is against eredin and I draw her on my first mulligan. I set her up to boost a a handful of units on my melee row, but with frost and wild hunt warriors I ended up only having one other unit on the melee row. Luckily I was able to keep the round close enough that her 8 point power swing was enough to give me the round, and my opponent to immediately forfeit. Feels good :cheers:

All your friends and foes,
they thought they knew ya,
but look who's in your heart now.
Chinese test realm went up with some changes, notably gold weathers nerfed to 2 and frost changed to only hit highest and lowest unit(s) by 1, golems reduced to 2 str, vico novices to 1. Savage bear no longer kills medics before their deploy goes off. Partial list here, it's reliant on what people have translated I guess. CDPR replied to the leak with "Please wait for the stream at 9PM, some things changed :)"

Frost nerf is the biggest one. Ithlienne has been massacred sadly.

Silver mages getting buffed is probably the weirdest change.

NR buffs feel insubstantial and reaver hunters are still their best cards by a mile.

I expected the Morkvarg deck to get hit somehow, but maybe they'll reveal something later.

Guess Ithlienne had to suffer because of Spell'tel, RIP all those dwarf decks. Also RIP Bear. Though I guess changes aren't final and the detailed list posted on reddit seems mad sketchy in some places.

Even with only 3 units on one row it's better than fog/rain, plus with monsters you could cycle them easy with the hounds. The more popular weather monster deck runs foglets but only 1xfog+dagon+spirit and has 2 frosts because of hounds.

Looks like Itlienne will not be getting an enormous nerf — the original was a mistranslation. Just +2 strength.

That's exactly the nerf I was hoping for. Good poo poo.

Those NR changes are a whole lot of nothing, can't really see them enabling any new decks. Frost no longer murders Sergeant decks, but fog and rain still fucks them hard (large rows of same-strength units)

So It Goes
Feb 18, 2011
Hopefully the golems change is more than a strength reduction which will still have them as auto include but just further increase their volatility if you do end up with one in hand vs free deck thinning. I'm pretty sure the golems would be played at 0 strength just to play a 22 card deck (I think). The blacklist during mulligan plus 3 copies of a card actually makes it easier to never start with them than compared to a card like roach or the crones, which are a little more risk/reward

The frost nerf is actually much smaller than I thought at first. Does it deal 2 damage to a single unit as well?

Aww, I just got to rank 15 but I guess I don't get the Witcher 2 Dandelion avatar until the season ends?

EDIT: Also I have to END the season in the top 1000 to get the Ilmerith avatar right? Or is it just getting there at any time?

I really like the nerf. I'm not sure it was necessary on top of the gold card nerfs (weather gets stronger the more of it you put in a deck) but there's some cool things you can do with the change. It works better with all unit(s) effects, including scorch/gigni, compared to fog which gets hosed as soon as there's an even/odd number on the same row.

That nerf isn't locked in yet. Specifically, someone else wrote a post about it on Reddit and one of the CDPR devs said to watch the stream and that not everything in those patch notes remained.

If a row has, for example, 4 cards, it can make half the damage. From 4 points to 2 points. That's a decent nerf.

In any case frost was annoying precisely in rows with a good amount of units (4-7 cards), that's the part they are nerfing.

I think I've milled somewhere around 300-400 commons so far, so that's gotta be at least 1-2k dust if they're going to credit us completely. Gonna be a lot of cards crafted when patch hits!
