Hi Pawel,
With the recent debacle about new starter decks (at least I milled all regular ones beforehand), don't you agree that a leek would be in order to soothe the souls? While everyone is asking about Radovid and Shani, I'd like to know if the next expansion brings us back Trolololo and Philippa. Can you comment on that, good sir?
Thanks

Hello Burza,
It's mentioned before that there's a consideration on swaping the abilities of Filavandrel and Brouver. Can i/we get any update or confirmation on that if it will push through? Also, may I know how you feel about the state of ST now?
Thanks

Hey Everyone,
There seems to be a lot of confusion regarding the new starter set of cards. Our account base is rather large and performing such updates can be quite time consuming. To help clarify things I wanted to share with you some more details about what to expect:
Phase 1:
We will go through all pre-beta accounts - if you played 0 online games after 1.0 and have old Starter Set decks & cards, we will remove them from your accounts. Then, all of the new Starter Set decks & cards will be added to your collection. This will be done through this weekend up till Monday 03.06.2019.
Phase 2:
We will go through all post-beta accounts - if you have less than the max number of non-premium copies of a new Starter Set card, we will grant you the missing cards. On the other hand, if you have more than the maximum number of non-premium copies, we will mill the extra copies. If you have the maximum number of copies of the Starter Set cards, we won’t be doing anything. This phase will be carried out sometime next week and will last 2-3 days - we’ll keep you updated.
Finding a solution that is fair to players but isn’t easily exploitable can be a difficult thing. We believe at this time that this solution, while not perfect, should be adequate to resolving any major issues with the Starter Set changes.

To answer @KoncertMajstor's question, here's how it's gonna work with new starter decks:
Hope it helps
- Accounts which sign up after Patch 2.2 will be assigned starter decks accordingly (this means new accounts).
- Accounts which played at least 1 online game after Patch 1.0 (post-Homecoming) see no changes (this means active players).
- Accounts which played 0 online games after Patch 1.0 (post-Homecoming) have the old starter decks and all cards that constitute those starter decks removed from their collection. Then, all of the new starter deck cards will be added (in card collection), and all of the new starter decks will be added (this means inactive players).
Hope it helps
Actually this doesn't apply to users who are actively playing after Homecoming, see my updated post.
This is how the decks are given to players:
- Accounts which sign up after Patch 2.2 will be taken through the FTUX workflow and will be assigned starter decks accordingly.
- Accounts which played at least 1 online game after Patch 1.0 ("post-HC") see no changes.
- Accounts which played 0 online games after Patch 1.0 ("post-HC") have the old starter decks and all cards that constitute those starter decks REMOVED from their collection. Then, all of the new starter deck cards will be added (in card collection), and all of the new starter decks will be added (in deck selection).

User Experience Update is coming tomorrow! Jason Slama and Paweł Burza go through some of the changes and features!
Reality is so terribly tedious... let the Season of Magic begin!
Put the swords aside and open your spell books – in this month’s seasonal mode, whenever you play a special card, you will also cast a copy of it.
Season of Magic will last until Friday, June 28th, 10 AM CEST.
New update for GWENT: The Witcher Card Game is now available for PC, PS4 and Xbox One! With update 2.2, we’ve focused on reworking the tutorial and starter decks to improve the first-time user experience. We’ve also set a minimum number of units to be included in every deck to 13, and added brand new Tavern Board to the game!
Full list of changes:
- Opponent AI in Training Mode has been improved.
- Matches are now played on one unified game board rather than two distinct halves from different game boards.
- Valid decks must now contain a minimum of 13 units.
- Changes in Deck Builder UI.
- Updated Shupe's VFX when opening goodies.
- In-game UI has been updated allowing players to hide usernames by clicking on player avatars. Also, players can now see point totals for each row by clicking on the crown icon (defaulted to RS/R3 on Xbox One/PS4 gamepads).
- Added 8 new daily quests that offer Reward Points.
- Starter decks have been reworked to showcase more faction cards and faction-specific mechanics.
New Features
- Complete overhaul of first-time user experience.
- Added a new setting allowing you to choose whether you always see the game board of your choice or let it be determined by the chosen game board of whichever player goes second (the Defender).
- Improved lighting on game boards.
- UI has been updated to make Borders and Avatars visible during matches.

- Fixed an issue whereby a match would desync and end in a Draw if some actions were still resolving as the turn timer expired.
- Fixed an issue whereby playing a Special card with a full board would result in the card being discarded.
- Fixed an issue whereby Special cards played via Aguara: True Form would not trigger the opponent's Serpent Trap.
- Fixed an issue whereby Golyat's Deathwish ability would Summon the opponent's unit from their deck to a random row rather than to the opposite row.

- Fixed an issue whereby Ves would recognize units that give Bleeding or Vitality on Deploy as valid targets for her Order ability on the turn that they were played.
- Fixed an issue whereby An Craite Longship would not damage units played by the opponent from the player's graveyard.
Hi,
Unfortunately we don't plan to go back depicting leaders as cards.
Cheers!

Cross-platform won't work, same goes for one account across platforms. Think of Galaxy 2.0 as a library and social platform where you store all of your games and talk with your friends.
Alright, here's the new episode of This Week in GWENT!

We wanted to revamp the game since we weren't happy with it before Homecoming. For now, we won't be going back to the beta version of GWENT.
