Game feels super smooth after the new patch

The animations and transitions feel so much more smoother after the new patch.
Overall, the game looks even more polished and attractive after the patch. Great stuff CDPR!
:cheers:
 
Thank you for listening to your community guys! You're doing great work, keep it up!

Getting rewards for rounds sounds really good, especially if that means that ties are rewarded too now!
Enjoy the Christmas!
 
Nice. Big nerf for Skellige in any tactics warcry, wounded, and resurrect. It's hard time to play Skellige now.

That's good when you put some challenge for us - who play Skellige faction.

So what happens once you reach level 100? No more rewards?

Side note: ST got nerfed hard :(
 
"Vrihedd Dragoon's ability changed to the following - Add 3 strength to a non-Gold unit in your hand."

Dragoon was the key card of my neophyte decks :(. I was in shock when he opened up a strange manu and read the description afterwards. I think this might be the end of the world... in which my neophyte deck works :(

yes... just noticed Aelirenn got nerfed as well. Since Dragoon no longer spawns neos it doesn't concern me much yet, but at least my neodeck is useless for the moment. Looks like I'm gonna have to craft isengrim at last

I think I have to rework some decks before playing matches again ^^

NO Issiues with 0.8.33... for now

The patch seems to be working decently... for now. Still don't get the Priestess' crap going on but.. nerfs don't feel like nerfs and buffs don't feel like buffs. So, good job (again, for now) on bringing on 20 cards and not ruining it right away.
 
Aelirenn is totally useless now (and with Isengrim nerf she's more complex to trigger as well), I don't think anyone would want a 6 points silver card which does nothing (especially in Scoia when most of silver cards are really useful).
 
IMHO Mardroeme is too OP for common bronze card. It's like situative combine of global thunderbolt and global manticore venom.
Same things to Dimeritium shacles - it may be well against NR golden strategy, but it's strenght reset looks too OP. Also it's just bronze unlike to Dimeritium Bomb (which you can have only one per deck).
But may be Dimeritium shackles is counter play to Mardroeme? IDK
 
I may be a noob in this game, but it feels like Skellige got nerved and Nekkar decks got boosted even more??
The Wild Bear was one of my two counters to breed/spawn decks....did I get it right, that the bear is useless now(in this case)? My only other counter is this "3 damage to all in the row card"....and if I don't get that card I loose....to be fair I would need two of that card.

I'm excited for the rank system....I hope to get more balanced opponents now:)

Why the hard nerf to Scoia'tael?

They destroy the strategie from the OP, but in general that are only some little nerfs. And some big buffs to Scoie. I think only SK is hit realy hard with this patch.

Isengrim/Aglais/Aelirenn nerfs aren't small.

Morenn easily wins the contest for the most useless legendary card ever. 7str silver with some never-used ability. Or am I missing something?

It depends of the mode they come late. I Hope for a Tournament mode and this is a very good choice for a sideboard.
There are other more useless legendary cards.
