Bronze vs Silver
Now in this game we have this tier style of cards where Silver are always better than Bronze, but i have a problem with HOW this is done.
Most of the silver cards are pretty cool and have some unique effects and this how they should be but i'd like to talk about some cards which aren't interesting or powerful enough.
I'll use Nilfgaard cards as example:
1) Spotter vs Vanhemar
Both have the exact same effect except Vanhemar has an extra 4 base strength, this is the only thing that makes him "better", worthy of being a silver card. Not only he has the same effect as a bronze card (i know spotters copied this effect) but spotters are Agile, making them better in certain situations.
My suggestion is to make Vanhemar weather immune, maybe reduce it to 7 if needed, cause right he's siege only and because of this is more vulnerable than its bronze counterpart.
2) Impera Enforcers vs Ceallach
They have the exact same base strength and do the exact same thing, the only difference is that Ceallach's effect is slightly stronger, by 2. This is just not interesting and even though it's slightly better than the bronze one it's enough good enough to deserve a silver spot. We already have a card that's just a slightly stronger bronze but we get that for free as a starter.
My suggestion is to give Ceallach a positional effect, since we have them now. Like instead of gaining STR as Impera Enforcer does maybe it can give adjacent units +4 STR, it would make him potentially more powerful but it requires a bit of setup, it feels more rewarding this way.
What do you guys think?
