Couple of days ago I faced this Meve deck, me playing my lovely Francesca with my own Rag-Aglais deck. When the match started I never knew the nightmare that was waiting for me. The opponent played engines and after engines and I was completely overwhelmed. With Ragnarok ticking every round and Swordmaster pinging every round Dol Blathana Archers and Bowman and Milean were all helpless. I had to give up and lose R1 when I had four cards in my hand and lost on even cards. R2, the opponent passes and in R3, I start with 9 cards in my hand and opponent has 10 cards. The nightmare continued. Engines after Engine. The opponent played Revenant, Octvist, S:Blaze for his 6th, 7th, 8th card and I ran out of control/lock options and was preparing for my 30 point Aglais with Ithline and Garrison and I finished my round with a 30 point Aglais with some 25 points ahead and passed. I didn't forfeit since I thought that deck deserved a proper win. I thought the player came up with this amazing deck. I guessed he had Hubert to perform the final fatality.
With 2 cards in his hands and Octvis, Blaze, Revenant ready, I was just waiting to get my head severed. Then the funniest thing in my Gwent life happened. Fortunately, the deck didn't come up with a manual. The opponent was carried away by the prospect of winning against a 30 point Aglais finisher. He deployed the Sabrina for his 9th card and activated all his abilities, Octvist, Blaze, Revenant. I was like . He was some 5 points down. Before Ending Turn, there was a 10 seconds panic from him before he forfeited.
That deck kept ringing nightmares in my ears. Yesterday I opened Gwentup to see the latest most saved decks (I check every now and then to prepare myself for the decks I may face. Not to netdeck) and found the exact deck.
The Deck.
Whoever came up with the deck is simply brilliant and genius. I was only playing at Rank 11-12, but I think this deck has potential to be played at Pro Rank. It has 9 bronze cards and 16 gold cards and almost everything is a engine. 16 freaking gold cards! What do you guys think? What would be the weakness of this deck? How should we counter it? I may regret this post, popularising this deck through this forum, but that is the most interesting and the strongest deck I had faced and I had to share it.
