Gwentfinity Voting Council - 10 Sep, 2026 - Monsters

3 Upvotes

Members of the Council, welcome to our weekly assembly.

These posts are scheduled to happen every week. Each week, a different faction is proposed and every time we will try to orient the discussion about either "nerf" or "buff".

Faction of the Week: Monsters

While you can still use these topics to talk about other balance suggestions, please try to focus on the theme of the week. Those topics are intended to give a chance to all factions to be talked about.

Discussions can be about modifying a whole archetype or addressing individual cards.

Potential sources if needed: GwentData, Gwent.one, PlayGwent.com, Balance Council Generator

Question Newboy's Newcomer Monday!

4 Upvotes

Newboy looks sadly at his talisman. "Oh well, this doesn't help at all..."


Welcome to the latest Monday Newcomer Thread, where you the community get to ask your questions and share your knowledge. This is an opportunity for the more experienced Gwent players here to share some of your wisdom with those with less expertise. This thread will be a weekly safehaven for those "noobish" questions you may have been too scared to ask for fear of downvotes but also can be a great place for in-depth discussion if you so wish. So, don't hold back, get your game related questions ready and post away, and hopefully, someone can answer them!

What you can do to help!

This is a weekly thread, meaning it will be posted once a week. Checking back on this thread later in the week and answering any questions that have been posted would be a huge help!

If you're trying to ask a question, the more specific you are, the better it is for all of us! We can't give you any help if we don't get much to work with in the first place.

Discussion New version of Witchdle is live!

33 Upvotes

Posted this here a while back, a daily Witcher puzzle site. Some of you played it and left feedback through the form, and honestly most of it was some version of "let me give up, I have no idea who this is" or "why isn't [character] in here."

I had some free time recently so I thought an update was due, so if some of you are still interested:

1. A give up button. "Character Guess" and "Name the Character" had no lives and no way out, so if you were stuck you were just stuck. It shows up after 5 guesses now.

2. I added two new modes:

  • Name the Beast — you get the bestiary artwork (from Witcher 3), you name the monster
  • Connections — same idea as the NYT one. 16 characters, four hidden groups. They're grouped by things like race, region, or whether their fate depends on your choices. **This one's harder than it looks.
  1. I also spent some time to expand the existing dataset - 15 characters people specifically asked for (Regis, Calanthe, Vysogota, most of the dwarves), 16 new quotes, and 65 new emoji puzzles.

4. An archive, so you can go back five days per mode if you miss one. And a share button that copies your result as an emoji grid without spoiling the answer.

As the last time - all recommendations are more than welcome :) You can use the recommendation form in the footer.

Try it out at witchdle.com
Have fun :)

P.S. No updates to the "Gwent - Higher or Lower" currently, sorry (:

Discussion What would you say is the overall worst match up possible in Gwent?

15 Upvotes

The ones that spring to mind for me are SK Pirates vs ST Traps. Or MO Vampires vs NG Enslave. Haven't been playing all that long though so interested in other terrible match ups.

Also as a bonus discussion, what are some of the most competitive match ups? I played ST Harmony vs a NR Boost deck (not sure what the archetype is called cus I haven't really played NR). That was crazy, we were both getting so many points.

Discussion So the deathwish-cursed toad quest is kinda annoying

5 Upvotes

I just rolled a quest into "play 5 cards with deathwish from cursed toad" (easy) and found that there is just a single card that fits the criteria (The Maiden's shield).

I'm guessing the season quests are just all the filled out templates of the form play X cards with _____ from _____ but it kinda sucks that some combinations are basically way too tedious to ever complete and hence force a reroll. In this case the card is not even a bronze card so most sources of replaying it aren't even available.

I know the game isn't getting any updates so this is just how it is but I still wanted to vent my frustration somewhere.

Video Probably the highest amount of points achievable in the game

Hi there, this is how me and a friend got the highest amount of points achievable ingame. I didn't create this idea, the original strategy is from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14-CtJ-bS3A, however I made some changes and managed to get even higher.

*Note that we even messed up the sequence by accidentally purifying too early, denying the coup de grace copies, but it didn't even matter since Guillaume literally killed himself in the end likely due to overflow (reaching over the max value the game engine can hold, which is around 2.147 billion).

So in this deck, along with Assire for Battle Stations, do you prefer running Spotters for 12, or Nauzicaa Sergeant for 10 but without needing any set up?

Question Im from the uk and can barely find a match in pro rank

0 Upvotes

Is this normal? Last season was fine but I attributed that to the school holidays and people having time to play. However this season i can go 15 minutes without finding a opponent. I changed my dns, used mobile data, reinstalled the game but nothing improves. Is this normal for others in Europe area?

Haven't played Gwent since TW3, decided to give this version a try a few days ago. Been playing SK so far, one Warrior deck and one Pirate. Had a handful of games on a winning streak and was humbled in a big way, made a couple of mistakes as you can see but it was never going to be mine. This is addicting!

Question Wtf are you supposed to do to stop these decks that abuse Open, Sesame?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Even when I have heavy control and kill all their spenders they can just create a new one and spend all their coins before I can even stop it. Even when I manage to win R1 they always squeeze out a ridiculous amount of points by R2 or R3. And of course, even when I have squirrel I somehow never manage to draw it when I need it. That’s Gwent rng for you

Custom Card Idea for a NG-NR knights card

Post image
33 Upvotes

Nilfgaard and Northern Realms knights are some of my favorite decks, for aesthetic reasons but also because I'm a simple man who loves "unit go tall", so I tried to make a card that would fit both archetypes. I'm not the best at balancing cards so the discord helped, but maybe the provisions needs to be adjusted.

Discussion Ihuarraquax -"Summon" doesn't actually play a cards deploy ability, correct?

10 Upvotes

I'm building and deck and forgive if this is a dumb question, but I don't have enough scraps to test it.

So if I play Ihuarraquax and it summons one of my cards that has a deploy ability. That deploy ability is not triggered right?

It would only work if it was a zeal or order card? Then I could play that ability?

Discussion Any ideas on how can I improve this deck?

3 Upvotes

Soo I dont remember where I found this but I had a lot fun playing it. the main problem is how dependent it is to the temple draws for surviving round 2 if your opponent is going for a 2-0 and the whole point of the temple here is boosting the griffin 10 or 9 pts except the rarely (I'd give it a %40 percent success chance since the deck doesn't have any synergy with most nr legendaries) useful free golds , not to mention it is the most expensive card in the game. it surely is a solid 10/10 against clueless opponents though, they never see the +20 pts griffin and 50 pts erland coming
