On PTR is some new leader in Skellige fraction. I do not see him here: https://www.playgwent.com/en/card-reveals
It will be available on beta server after update?

It looks a bit Hearthstone-y, the new game 
The effects, they remind me of that a lot. I think the old ones were better and the way the game flowed. Also, create should be 4 different cards randomly selected, with 3, the risk of RNG ruining your day is too much. In the meantime I'll be trying to make conceal work I don't have enough room for its units in my reveal deck

I could not agree with you more. The gorgeous art is wasted here.. Visually its like playing a mobile game on a PC. The cards themselves have somehow less detail. I would not consider spending any meteorite powder. Also the animations are 2D like. Cards never appear as anything else than a square..
After last weeks Chellenger its hard to imagine watching this as an e-sport.
Ok I tried the PTR out for a few games yesterday, sadly I will not have more time before christmas.
First in general: I am not opposed to make Gwent accessible for mobile playing. Quite the opposite it would make it much easier for me to play it every day.
What I liked were the new cards and the new deck builder. especially the combination and of builder and collection are a great development.
I must get used to the animations during the game (like written in some post before - best examples are the animation of Woodland Spirit and Ragnarog) and to the new card mechanics. I dont know what the reasoning behind changing so many card mechanics is. If its only to make it easier for new players I dont know if it really is the right way because I think we will loose a lot of variety of decks and gameplay. But I also admit that is probably to early and I played not enough games to definitly say that.
What I absolutely didnt like are the new graphics of the cards (like written before only rectangles no real cards) and the new "simpliefied" names (Brand instead of King Brand, Hailstorm instead of Merigolds Hailstorm). Regarding the graphics there is an alternative how it could look like on reddit: https://i.imgur.com/dh4rqml.png (Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/gwent/comm...ructive_feedbacks_from_the_community/drfcj5q/). And regarding the names I just hope that the short names are just temporary for the PTR server and not in the final update.
I know both things are not essential for the gameplay. But I chose Gwent because of its atmosphere and if these changes remain it just another card game that has not much to do with the witcher universe anymore.

CDPR IT'S A CRIME have all this amazing art in the cards and make it so small now!! I spent so much money for the premium version of the cards and now they are so small that is not even worth it.
I finally convinced a friend to play Gwent after watching the amazing Challenger2, and he play today the PTR... He just say me that this game is like a indie Android game for kids with this new empty, flat UI, the small cards, and numbers everywhere of buff/damage for kids... He's not wrong at all
