Really, really if you change the page number your reply is deleted ? just spent more than an hour for all the quotes and counter arguments, god how i hate forums !
Now the short version, since I can't go to the page number one !
NO you never use unless you have to use your spies in the second round if you won the first round, since you are going to have a hard game if you do that, and you don't use them in the 1. round too!
Spies are the last cards you wanna use, the enemy needs to lose decoys and healers befor you use spies.
Dijkstra is 8 power on gwentDB that's a lot of points to give to the enemy for a card you could have if you didn't have dijkstra!
The chance you drow somthing good is not twice as high !
using dijkstra as a card to bait another card in new gwent is not really a good exchange, sicne you are not playing vs Ai they don't need to use cards until you give up the round, they can just use that spie against you.
People could not use spies in old gwent and the new ones are just looking to ez to counter, I have over 200 online gwnet games northen vs nilf and perheps i seen 10 people who managed to use spies.
Someone said, that dijkstra is probably a low spie card, why him of all people, makes no sanse ?
Currently I am thinking it's better to have no spies in northern deck, the cnahce of getting a card is basically the same but without the extra power up to the enemy, and a clear hand from start.
A few question, I have dijkstra and thaler, if i play one fo them (dijkstra)and see one card for instance it's my man Vernon Roche but i pick the other one then I play thaler will the one from the two cards be Vernon Roche ? if the answer is yes will he be the card I see or is there chance that he will be the hiden one ?
A few question I see a lot of people here don't have much experience playing gwent against humans, but dijkstar and thaler purely depend on the answers for the question above.
And once more, I hate this forum system.
And for love of all thats holy to you, give Roche, Olgierd and Olaf the bear some sick cards.
And I am's till angry because of my lost post !
