Abandoning NR Cause Its Simply Not Good Enough Anymore.
I've tried to stick with it but after this patch I've finally decided to abandon NR cause there are simply too many advantages in using the other decks. I've made a skellige & scoia deck to start with and my win rate is all ready higher than NR (after patch).
To be honest one of the only reasons I was sticking with NR was the medics but clearly Skellige does it way better allowing you to choose which cards you revive plus being able to revive the priestess of freya. Also skellige doesn't have to worry about buffing cause you can literally change the base strength on quite a few cards. Then there is savage bear etc.
Scoia honestly could be the best deck now. I literally got hit by a double commander horn today from a scoia deck. The ability to replay gold cards and reuse special cards so many times makes it such a powerful deck.
Monsters weather can be countered more easily now but some of the spy cards make it really tempting to use like taking a card from your opponents graveyard then putting it in your hand.
Having a hard time deciding which is better between the two but I think Scoia just about comes out on top of skellige. I had tried mixing up my NR strategy to focus on promoting but it simply wasn't working for me and can all fall apart if you don't draw a certain card. The NR control strategy can easily backfire on you too.
Edit: Forgot to mention D-bomb basically destroys any NR strategy right now in one hit.
