We're only two days away from the massive Crimson Curse update and I have begun to wonder what faction will come on top. After going over the revealed cards so far (there's still a few left + leaders) I think we might just see Northern Realms beat both Monsters and Skellige in terms of power. I think NR has been the underdog this whole time and the faction was waiting for new cards to really boost their power. I'm sure you've all seen their new cards, they don't look OP or anything but they're just so great.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, I think Nilfgaard will not be as good this time around. I really didn't like most of their cards, they just seem too conditional. Especially those Assimilate cards. They might just take ST's spot as the worst faction, which is a shame.
As for Monsters, Skellige and ST, I really think these three factions will be more of on the same level. MO and SK were obviously already pretty damn strong before the update so there isn't much to discuss here. ST though, I personally think their new cards are pretty neat. I know some of you weren't impressed but I think they'll be much better now, with these new cards that are coming.
So it'll be:
1. NR
2. ? (Probably SK)
3. ?
4. ?
5. NG
Anyway, this is just speculation and my personal opinion. I would like to see what y'all think about this as well. Btw, the meta will be crazy the first couple of days for sure but I mean that NR will dominate after the dust settles.
