The Russian community was voting for edna + Philippe nerf, but the English community rallied behind thirsty dame nerf. Only 1 of 2 change bundles should have went through ideally. Philippe will likely be reverted back next season, assuming thirsty dame stays the same
I love your channel but I’m curious on if you have videos for beginners? I’m new and get in games where I have no idea how my opponent is playing 6 cards a turn or how all the buffs work like Order and Zeal for instance. Thanks for the help!
Lara down one Power will be amazing! Now you can play ard gaith or however it's spelled and next turn Lara and she dies instantly. You can now actually play her in other decks then tatterwing!
Also can we all please stop nerfing Regis? This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen xD
I think one drawback with the balance council is that you can't change the damage on removal of special cards and now i see a lot of engines going to 5, for example Tourney joust was the best counter to Gwitcher adept or you could have used Toad in monsters, but now it's out of range and the only option is lock
Really happy to see the Runeword at 5p! Can fit a bit more into my Shieldmages deck now — not to mention old Gerhart now has a solid option at Patience 2, especially after the Runemage. Selective Mutation could also have some unexpected uses. Succubus, Koschey and Chimera (MO), Gellert (SY), The Prophet (NG), the Puzzle Box (N) — all have Adrenaline. I wonder if you could build a reliable Chimera deck now.
Viy and Mill use Quax. And If I'm not wrong, some versions of Kelly use Quax. Maybe this last one would be the reason? I don't really get it, either.
I quite agree with your observations, although I don't think the huge buff's NR has received (witchers, AA, Jon, etc.) are not that good. AA should be 13, at least (Siege should be 14). And now Jon is the only tutor that's below the 8 provision the rest are. We've unbalanced already the thinning, and now we're starting to unbalance the tutors…
But, all in all, I agree this is the most positive of the Balance Councils we've had so far.
While we are all tired of seeing Dame and Nauzicaa Sergeants nerfed and buffed for eternity, I like that at least this time Sargeant and Slave Driver were de-coupled, so we get to at least evaluate the halfway point, instead of every patch having 4 points/provisions swinging. Isolating the variables in combos that are either too strong or too weak is a good thing.
Ihuatahuax is just a neutral mill card. Random casino along the lines of traehern. It appears rarely but when it does it sucks.

The tainted ale was nerfed to prov 10 so it can‘t be played unanswered in the gn version
i'm all for all of the Witcher buffs, been playing NR witchers again lately, always been my fav deck

Yago nerf was pretty bad, because jackpot should have been nerfed back to 13.
nice balance changes syndicate is still broken asf
I love the controversy Nausicaa brings 🤣 you either love it or you hate it
Thanks PP! Looks like those Russians really want to play Witchers & Pirates, eh?
Good video!
Most changes were indeed good. I dropped gwent at the first balancing council because I hated it, but I might just try again

Wonderful review format! =) Keep 'em coming, appreciate it a lot!

The uniforn nerf is probably done by the playrs of the most aids cards xD
(Aka renfri and simlass)
