I don't have a specific suggestion ability wise, but please, make a Kalkstein card. I was really bummed when i learned he died. 
( and if he is voiced by the original voice actor, or at least someone with a similar voice, it would be the best! )

Nilfgaard
Turncoat | 3 (Silver)
Deploy: Choose one of opponent's revealed card. That card is discarded, that player draw a new card, and you immediately play a copy of it as a locked disloyal unit.
Honey Trap | 3 (Gold)
Deploy: Choose one of opponent's revealed card. That card is discarded, that player draw a new card, and you gain a copy of it as a locked disloyal unit.
----------------------------------------------
Two version, with main difference being the card you gain, one is played and one you can keep.
On the face value, it is has synergy with the reveal archetype, and take a threat card out of opponent's hand. They would still get a base version on their board.
The gold version give you a card advantage, and since you keep it, you can always replace it at later round. (not sure if that would be too strong)
But an advance usage is to mix with the spy mechanic such as Menno (burn them off) or Caellech (get them on your side). So if you grab a weak card, you can play it to try to get card advantage or feed you Brigades. A strong one and you can uses Menno and Caellech.

Scoia'tael
Hawker Supplier | 5 (Bronze)
-Deploy: Boost a unit on the board by 1. Active 4 times.
On face value, a strength 9 unit with boost. But since the boost can be targeted, and apply to opponent, so could see possible use of buff and flatten out some of opponent’s unit for upcoming Scorch.
Nilfgaard
Smuggler | 1 | Spy (Bronze)
-When this unit or adjacent units gain a boost, boost a random unit on your side of the board by that amount.
This act as a poison pill to enemy lines, and help equalize the board a bit, especially if put next to natural boosting enemies (like behind the Om nom nom lizard).

Terrains, which act like weather (affect a whole row), but usually apply a one time effect.

I like those cards. Rotfiend is creative, and helpful in a deathwish deck. (but I think its a bit hard to use, since it won't damaging dealing don't carry over that well, so have to eat it or trigger it to be helpful.)
I am playing some NR swarmy deck, and thinking of some cards that might be a good add.

(When does the consuming end?? XD Might be a bit too powerful with the potential damage & Nekkers in tow)

(Great idea!)
Witch Hunters

Deploy: Strengthen or weaken a unit by 2.
Trio Ability: Strengthen or weaken a unit by 7. (Possibly a bit overkill, I think this would work better with a lock or reset?)
Geralt: Yrden
Strength: 8 (5)
Faction: Neutral
Row: Agile
Rarity: Silver (Gold)
Deploy: Units adjacent to this card are protected from bronze special cards played by your opponent. Whenever this unit is damaged, hit a random enemy by 1.
(I like the idea of protecting cards from Bronze special cards but I don't know if it works with Yrden)
Deploy: Spawn a Yrden Trap on the same row on the opponents side.
Yrden Trap

Row: Same as Geralt on opposite side
Rarity: Gold
Damage a random unit on the row by 3 every turn.
Geralt: Axii

Rarity: Gold
Deploy: Apply Axii on an enemy unit. The unit affected by Axii will damage itself by 3 for three turns. If that unit dies, boost Geralt: Axii by 4. If that unit lives, weaken Geralt: Axii by 4.
Deploy : Target a enemy and damage units either side of this unit by 2, if the unit has 6 power or less move it to your side on the same row.
Now this unit could be deemed overpowered, but it's very situational (Same as Geralt: igni). Eg. If you save it for the last round and they play a unit with 7 power, this card is going to have no effect.
Really Like these ideas, I've come up with a few of my own suggestions.
Comments in Green, adjustments in Cyan
Cabowse Thanks for your comments about my suggestions. Coming up with interesting ideas that make sense for Yrden and Axii is really hard lol! I liked your version of Sylvia more honestly. Did you check out the new cards that leaked?
OG.laloquaint No worries, I love collaboration and brainstorming! You gave me some great basis to re-work ideas
I saw them, and some of them look really cool, I'm not sure how I feel about the assassin card as I play an An Craite deck a lot and they could decimate my high strength units, seems a little OP for a Bronze haha.

I think he meant to consume without absorbing strength (more like Scirru). I like that original suggestion a lot btw, because it doesnt give value unless you have spiders spawning.Cabowse;n9210911 said:
