Seems it won't. Can't find a dev source saying that, but I can find a comment saying there is one (and it seems like a dumb thing to make up, so I believe it's true). The revealer also says the same.The question is, will it work with Yen?

Nope, as others stated, it's 16 because in your detailled math, it's true that's opponent lose 6, but you gain 10 compare to your score before plaing the card, so it's 16.The play on a 10 power GS in total, Puppet Master vs GS, 1v1, mono a mono IS 12 points of value total if the order goes off lol.
Think about it:
Enemy has 10 points
You have 4
After yoinking now you switch places so now you have 10 and enemy has 4.
Since you now got up from 4 to 10, you gained 6 points.
Since enemy went down from 10 to 4, he lost 6 points.
IN TOTAL, you've just made a 12 point difference by playing PM and using his order. :]
I see, true, you're right lol.Nope, as others stated, it's 16 because in your detailled math, it's true that's opponent lose 6, but you gain 10 compare to your score before plaing the card, so it's 16.
But why is the Greatsword counted in the "equal" and master isn't? You start from zero, then the opponent plays ten, then you play four, so the score is 4-10. Then you flip. So the score is 10-4 now. Difference is 12.Ok, let's explain this with the Maths I did:
Imagine you have 20p on board without Puppet master. Your opponent has 20 points too, with the GS.
Now it's your turn to play, so you put a 4p Puppet master and you have 24.
When you seize GS you are in 34 and your opponent in 10 points; BUT you give Puppet master, so you end with 30 and him with 14. The difference is 16 ponts.
I think I got it, but they didn't explain it properly, they explained it very badly. Now let me explain it in a professional way that shall leave little room for missunderstanding.But why is the Greatsword counted in the "equal" and master isn't?

Because Master is the card is played and GS has to be there if you want to do the exchange.But why is the Greatsword counted in the "equal" and master isn't?

Wait, but you HAD a 4 point unit on the board before you used that ability, so didn't you LOSE those 4 points when gaining that 10 point unit?I think I got it, but they didn't explain it properly, they explained it very badly. Now let me explain it in a professional way that shall leave little room for missunderstanding.
Behold:
Opponent has 10 power. - Simple
After PM uses his ability, he will leave opponent with a 4 power card, THUS you've removed 6 power from opponent (10 - 6 = 4).
Now on your side you will be left with a 10 power unit.
So now imagine you played a unit whose base power was 10 and he did 6 damage to the enemy unit: 10 + 6 = 16 total value!! CRAZYY!!
Yesssssss, but seizing a 10 power unit is a 20 point swing. so you make a 20 point swing while giving your opponent 4 points, thus 20 - 4 = 16. :]Wait, but you HAD a 4 point unit on the board before you used that ability, so didn't you LOSE those 4 points when gaining that 10 point unit?
This was confusing to me too. Still I am confused but let me clarify. Imagine playing a 4P spying unit which seizes any bronze, for the sake of the argument. So, you know that whenever we seize (by that I mean, whenever we ST players gets our unit seized), we get double the point as opponent loses x and you gain x so, in total you get 2x points.Wait, but you HAD a 4 point unit on the board before you used that ability, so didn't you LOSE those 4 points when gaining that 10 point unit?
Now, who is prepared to see some most beautiful amazing card art and extremely contrived and hard conditions to get nominal value? Yes, tomorrow ST reveals start.
Additionally to that the Card also probably heavily relies on which Decks are currently Popular in the Meta because you most likely won't find much worthy targets in a AQ/Elf Swarm or no/low Unit Deck heavy Meta.Even if master puppeteer doesn't die on the spot - very likely, by the way - you still need to make sure he is neutralised quickly once on the other side of the board. It honestly seems like a very complicated maneuver to pull off when considering the average gwent combo.
Thing is against those decks you can wait for them to fill a row / fill it on your own. Then you can seize something from the other row and Master of Puppets won't switch sides due to lack of space.You most likely won't find much worthy targets in a AQ/Elf Swarm
No doubt ST art will be beautiful, stunning and amazing art as it always has. My fear is, ST will get the most contrived hard to pull off to get nominal value cards as it has always got. The PTSD of all ST mains from the recents patches and the expansions. We will get to know in next couple of days, but I am already scared of what might come to ST.Considering the Open#2 and Pride Stream Leeks, I Guess we'll probably already know 2 of the soon to be revealed ST Card Arts.
