A ROUND OF GWENT | Holiday Special

[@SPZ_Bionaks]

I'm really disapointed by you removing the illustrators names below Gwent cards when you right click them...

[@DyLaNXT]

"Pulled off every patch without apocalyptic disaster". SAID TOO SOON.

[@Dualitiy]

Yeah, never thought they would f*ck up this bad. And on so many levels

[@maxr3140]

haters gonna hate stop crying

[@Dualitiy]

Hate? No, more like disappointment. And stating your opinion or criticising something is not crying. It's vital and needed to improve. For me personally, the game is not enjoyable in its current form. And even beside the *questionable* changes the update is totally bug ridden. -Emhyr is buggy. -The consume leader is buggy. -Discarding priestesses causes them to banish (doesn't say that in the patchnotes). -Veterans don't buff units that are in the graveyard even though they should ("buff Tuirseach wherever they are") -Aguara once did not cast a spell when I played her -and last but not least my Avallach drew Roach and then played it out of my hand so I gave my opponent one free card advantage. Those are just the bugs that I have in mind right now, I'm probably missing a lot. And every one of them cost me a game pretty much. (Those that aren't avoidable maybe even more) So cut your "haters gonna hate stop crying".

[@Robx08]

well... if your vision of an apocalyptic disaster look like this... it's not so bad.

[@walrider8073]

The patch is great, no idear what you are talking about

[@christophp6947]

Friendly reminder: The people working at Gwent listen to your (constructive) feedback - there is no need for hate. Challenger was immense, there are over 109 new cards, there is a very practical UI, etc. Furthermore they are working on Thronebreaker and a lot of other cool stuff and they will tune everything. I don't know how many people are developing Gwent currently - but I suppose everybody is working more than hard to get all of this accomplished. Just be patient. It's still in Beta. And people at CDPR: Thank you and have a lovely Christmas with your families

[@shayachabot8455]

The new cards and the UI are awesome. Need some small bug fixes and balance tweaks and I'm happy.

[@TheLegoJungle]

Ikr? People I feel are too quick to judge and exaggerate a lot. Hearthstone has been one of my top games but has fallen off in the past year. I hear people say Gwent is becoming HS 2.0. Gwent is nowhere near as broken as HS.

[@Hatti69]

Yea that mulligan screen looks awsome......*sarcazm off*

[@marksong8626]

Everyone that’s complaint about the game right now needs to calm down, improvement will be made for sure. Also merry Christmas everyone

[@IljaKorhonen]

[@indyslimshady]

People like to bitch, it’s their fav pastime.

[@prankkster]

"...no doubt due to their superior sense of direction". Adalbert, you troll XD

[@whatchachattin]

Professional card boi lmao

[@DenverHarward]

Keep up the great work CDPR! I think the latest patch is a huge improvement in most areas and the progress the game has made in just a year is impressive. Thanks for treating your players so well. Don't listen to the haters just hating for the sake of hating! :)

[@aldoantunes]

I know the small unsatisfied portion of the community tends to be very loud, but I'm here just to say thanks for the many great changes you've been making to make the game better and bigger. Keep it up with the amazing work you're already doing.

[@Lazzarus7]

Really love the new patch, it changed a lot of things but I think in better. The game is more enjoyable. I also love the fact you invite people from the comunity like Swim, Mogway or Merchant and many others, it's just great!

[@agnieszkachodkiewicz7795]

The way mulligan and deck-and-cards creator work now is more comfortable for sure, but everything is sooo ugly now! And the worst thing is that cute, colorful and shiny new atmosphere that this patch introduces. It is a witcher card game, guys! It should to be dim and rather dire

[@rafaelmontagner9845]

Ash's accent is the cutest thing in this Earth.

[@nocommentgaming5399]

that moment when CDPR shares your meme, again! Thanks!

[@emile5921]

"I am happy with the direction we took", ie. Gwentstone 2018

[@ejabraham10]

You guys are slowly turning Gwent into hearthstone. Gwent was so much fun because it was unique. They haven't simplified the game, they dumbed it down. Kotaku's article about this: kotaku.com/gwent-players-arent-happy-with-the-games-big-new-update-1821515193

[@LesPixad]

Another guy who truly don't know what Hearthstone is

[@sub_pig]

You could put split-screen mode in the game ?

[@TheLegoJungle]

I really like Jason. He seems genuinely happy to be here.

[@harryread7663]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but prior to this patch some cards like blue stripes commandos had 3 different art portraits you could get and select between. Now I only see one with no option to toggle between them. Did they remove the alternate artwork or am I just a sausage?

[@ibrahimal-rouqaishi5280]

Harry Read yes they did remove them to lower the chances of getting them in kegs.

[@sendalnya]

"Dont stop net-deck" I LOL'ed

[@sigma4337]

"join me next time for more THOTS" 16:35 LOL

[@renfrifan1232]

It's "smooth" now apparently. Who are you guys kidding? Hotfix, hopefully.

[@bogdanmuzyka1667]

Dat intro with swim is really hot, thx CDPR!

[@Selandr]

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you guys! Thanks for the amazing game!

[@dragoonzen]

Ash is so beautiful

[@westangayidols]

Merry christmas everyone! Thanks for new episode, it's really nice! I P.S. have never played with decks from internet ;)

[@carlos.ctoluenomadafaka228]

Lo que me encantaba de gwent era lo diferente de sus facciones , ahora todas son lo mismo con diferente arte, y todas las cartas tienen habilidades indiferete del color , ya no hay nada que justifique las cartas doradas,plata o bronce. lo entretenido del mini juego de the witcher 3 , era precisamente su simpleza. La idea original estaba muy buena, ahora nose en que muto y en que mutara en el futuro.

[@walrider8073]

Thanks for your hard work and happy holidays :)

[@IljaKorhonen]

[@CoDMunichTV]

the moment you have to double check if this really is swim

[@DarknessInside]

Server! With Closed! Beta! Abilities! Server! With Closed! Beta! Abilities! Server! With Closed! Beta! Abilities! Ash, you are awesome! =)

[@IljaKorhonen]

Beyond The Frame 2! AWESOME

[@ctapu4ok917]

You turned the game of secrets, the first move and strong finisher...

[@alyasya8226]

Awesome! Happy holidays, guys, thank you, you're doing a great job! On the last patch - the overall style and animation is on the bright and kinda childish side and it is a bit disturbing, I like my Gwent serious and grim :) Otherwise - keep up the good work, best of luck, Swim is adorable, Ash is the cutest, Burza is the best waifu, cheers!

[@Eko-jh9sf]

Swim embracing the cardboi meme

[@ВладимирШутов-б1ч]

Why "Beyond the Frame" sounds and spelled like "Twillight zone" or Alan Wake's "Night Spring"? Is it reference? Почему "Beyond the Frame" звучит и произносится с манерой, схожей с произношением "Сумеречной зоны" или "Ночных Источников" из Алана Уэйка?

[@stephanojeong9596]

The game got so much better I love y'all

[@Schlach]

Once again I ask, where can I get one of those damn mugs? If I can't start selling them, they're awesome.

[@lshunterxd7024]

Swim LOOOOVE XD

[@JetConvoy]

Did he just say more factions? 😰😱

[@Maxim.Nazarenko]

1. "Create" is too random. It will get worse with increased card pool. 2. Update is too early. At least you could warn players about date and time. 3. Cards are getting too "casual" and simplified. 4. Was there any change in keg droprate? 5. Can you make some kind of highlight for freshly nerfed cards in game client? So players can instantly mill them, if they wanted to. 6. Will there be new challenges to get new leaders? 7. Deck builder + collection. Yes, it's great idea, but implementation is bad. 8. Why I cannot see exact amount of my cards? It's maximum "9+". 9. New mulligan window is great. I can see all cards, don't need to scroll them. 10. I don't like new card look. 11. Animations. They are so bad, I don't even know who thought that they're better. 12. Can you scale up "choice window", if I got 3 cards? 10-card look is awful. 13. Also more random from positioning of cards like Clan Raider, when I discard them with Clan Warmonger - it's bad. 14. Some cards was fully reworked and some got nerfes, why I cannot get full mill amount for them? Unseen Elder Regis Cahir Vernon Roche Priscilla Schirru Keira Metz Gaunter O'Dimm Triss: Butterfly Spell Yennefer: Conjurer I've got Old Speartip. Why I cannot mill Slepping Giant for full value? And many-many other. 15. Why I cannot choose amount of cards, that I want to mill? I don't wanna mill one by one. 16. Thanks for reworking Magne Division. 17. Thanks for removing different arts for one card. There are some other problems, too tired now, to write everything.

[@Swierzop31]

19:05 he is playing on keytar, not keyboard

[@IISMAELXIMPA]

awesome game guys. Changes have to be made in the new patch but overall is a step forward

[@Calaveralugubre]

dont disappoint me guys this last patch feels out of place for me. I'm a little bit worried about the future of gwent

[@polakuu]

but they keep improving it and they added lots of nice things, new UI looks and works awesomely... it's still in Beta, so chill out :)

[@IljaKorhonen]

Exactly, Daniel

[@hydra66]

give them time

[@captainpronin5264]

A few ui tweaks, spies removed from the create pool and a few bug fixes and this would have been a god tier patch. Hotfix pls.

[@ashtonhdesign]

Arena confirmed

[@andreasfuglsang17]

Uhm yeah? That's what the RNG cards were for, right?

[@epicnab]

I feel like it's way too early for an Arena mode, there's just not enough cards per faction to make this mode compelling, yet.

[@angelyordanov792]

*Don't stop Netdecking !*

[@CarrollLiddell]

WhiteOne #triggered.

[@TheLegoJungle]

Hey, white one! Take a gander!

[@ГеоргийКерженцев]

Damn, where can i get the gwent jacket, that Jason Sama is wearing?

[@TheLegoJungle]

We need a Leek Plush in the merch store.

[@yashasupercow99]

we gonna get new faction bois

[@TheGooner128]

This was so good :D

[@Bloker710]

Ash

[@kinagol22]

Draft is coming aww yeah

[@ourleader9477]

6:37 cheeky swim

[@rahmetlibaskankennedy9897]

Thanks for the rngwent cdpr.

[@TheLegoJungle]

Hadi lan ordan.

[@Lyserus]

I'm fine with the rng factor...however the new patch is rushed, many cards don't have animated version and many cards got inconsistent and uncalled for name change and simplified abilities. CDPR never failed us so we hold VERY high expectation, that's probably why it looks like players hate CDPR now. Don't be discouraged to try it out, and have faith CDPR will fix it.

[@Rinchen8192]

1:38, and then the holiday patch came out.

[@subhrajyoti1]

:) thank you for such a good game

[@naser3000x]

who guessed that swim is going to be in this?

[@harveycarter6149]

In desperate need of balance changes, been waiting on the queensguard buff for months...

[@victorbigdash9003]

Thank you CDPR .You are the best!

[@Dualitiy]

But the update is a buggy mess?!

[@mickeydusk]

Theyre greedy assholes that created a shitfilled patch to cash in on holiday sales. Theyre gonna fuck this game up

[@AKKILLRZ922]

listen i don't want to start a fight here but i think you should look into destiny 2 right now before you start calling them greedy. Personally i think they just rushed it but hey who knows

[@HakkeKuuhekiShou]

"Greedy shitholes"? They couldnt be more generous, like they even added another reward feature on top of the old one. And ofc they want to earn something, its their job after all, but this doesnt mean that you have to cash in at all. Yes you can, but thats up to you. Ppl like you are so smallminded and think of the game as something solely for their amusement without keeping the bigger picture in mind. Merry Christmas anyways, dont let your christmas be ruined by unnecessary anger

[@leonardojachinski3297]

gwent is better now than ever

[@Dualitiy]

dumbed down and buggy af. Yeah, definitely better than before...

[@GigglingStoners]

Lol, you're kidding right?

[@hmm6667]

Youre wrong

[@abdalrahmankhataan7231]

Dualitiy lol dumbed down??? every single card that was "dumbed down" was basically shit and unplayable....name one card that got simplified and had a whole archetype around it....yeah they had some cool features but none fit into the game....take botchling/lubberkin for example....

[@88Special88]

An organic tutor for monsters ??

[@Basterito1]

love Gwent

[@marwan4951]

there are so hapoy :)

[@LifeBrain8]

Well.. I understand many of yours ideas. But, I also know what reasons are "behind the door" for many changes. Anyway - please fix this patch, please repair this. You released patch for gaming at Holidays, but I and many of community can't play. Servers. Keyword. You're smart and creative people, I believe that Gwent will be a pvp game of the 2018 year. Good luck and Merry Christmas too.

[@赵明远-h5v]

Swim is so cute with that hat

[@maurobaez5805]

"Cat-astrophe" haHAA

[@nekju_]

Ja nadal niemoge przeżyc usunięcia umiejętności frakcji

[@007MrKaput]

Świąteczny sweter Ash!

[@DissidiaSkypiercer]

If this patch sets the fundation of what's to come during 2018 then i don't wanna be there to see it.

[@MsYurarus]

Rose Wild really? Instead of complaining try to be patient and support the game. Send support for known bugs and etc..

[@tobysfig]

@1.40 spoke too soon...

[@georgetrifillis3745]

Is that a star wars sweater?

[@d1d15]

[@RatSkull]

[@RemaTheLegend]

[@Pawel_Heavy]

[@adamms]

Why fraction skills was mistake it was very good :(

[@IljaKorhonen]

Oh man, it most definition was NOT good, lemme tell you that :D Also Merry Christmas

[@Brangutang]

Does Swim have some kind of issue with his nose? He rubs it like every 5 seconds. o.o

[@CarrollLiddell]

Brangutang Just some snow stuck in his nose probably... It is the holidays!!!

[@Choteron3]

The new UI functionality is great but the asthetics are bad. Also, im glad that i quit HS for this game. Feelsgoodman

[@XxPUN1SHERxX]

Swim.. ever the memer

[@kacperkosek5698]

Hahaha :D Swim's text :D

[@3losh1410]

Moonlight deck need more support

[@bcount1]

storymode plz

[@NoppanatKhaoyai]

Where is my Queen Meve?! :c

[@alangilligan4279]

Would have to agree Dont Net Deck!

[@eldorito5930]

This comment section is awful :/

[@andreasfuglsang17]

Because we say something you don't like hearing?

[@andreasfuglsang17]

RNG cards are a huge problem. Just look at pro ladder.

[@andreasfuglsang17]

I'm not talking about rng decks I'm talking about RNG cards that ruin ranked ladder/pro ladder.

[@andreasfuglsang17]

Uhm... Runestones? Aguara?

[@andreasfuglsang17]

Fun is subjective though. RNG doesn't equal fun imo. But whatever floats your boat :)

[@Videfde]

Swim is good boy :)

[@IdefixD0g]

I really loved gwent, and I deleted it yesterday. The patch was a disaster, the game is basically a worse version of Hearthstone now. I will probably try it out in the end of the upcoming year, when it's not beta. Right now is a mess.

[@GigglingStoners]

Same here. Gwent was the only card game I could really get into and after the latest patch it's horrible. Why do this?

[@shayachabot8455]

IdefixD0g why because they improved the UI and added in some fun weak create cards? All they need to do is remove silver spy's from create, bug fixes, and a couple balance changes. Stop overreacting.

[@williamdrouin8063]

Mhh it's still extremely different from hearthstone

[@kanito107]

IdefixD0g see you in a few weeks

[@oceanmud2104]

I think he's talking about visual part of game

[@throl4o]

FIX YOUR DAMN GAME LAST PATCH IS A DISASTER

[@GigglingStoners]

Yup

[@williamdrouin8063]

Not really but wtv

[@chemicalcabbage]

add back in the trio cards temerian infantry and blue stripes commando looks so boring now.

[@TVMateriul]

Did they purposely choose her because she looks like Yennifer?

[@fabiozwei]

SWIM

[@DHMorra]

Oh my, next episode of cringetown is out!

[@maciejkodej5973]

11:50 12:45

[@Hatti69]

U realize that the game is broken after last patch?....especially "create" spy which u knew about before launch and still did it....mulligan screen still looks like shit constant disconnects which dint happen before at least for me...why do u all act like all is shine and dandy?...thats what pisses most of ur fans..."all is awsome" attitiude "move along"

[@ИванГородов-ь5я]

Fix your damn game latest patch is killing the game

[@jiririnagl6838]

since when is skellige such good in necromancy? everybody now plays only fucking bear decks thx guys nice balanced patch

[@CarrollLiddell]

Also weather and scorch.

[@laloquaint]

jiri rinagl Use Scorch buddy

[@73duner]

I would not start playing Gwent 7 months ago if the game was in its current state. You have clearly showed that you want to go the way Hearthstone went, cheap mobile client game with simple mechanics and rng. I quitted Gwent, but I blame you for all the lies you told your player base until now on what you want the game to be, shame on you.

[@selesia865]

When you fix it a Gwent? This patch is misunderstanding. Read the comments this gwint24.pl/pierwsze-wrazenia-z-gry-po-swiatecznej-aktualizacji-subiektywnie

[@chemicalcabbage]

Im fine with most of the changes all though you fucked up my boy Regis. But seriously whats with only one card art for trios of cards? Temerian infantry and blue stripes commando look crap now.

[@hoogmas7752]

Fix this game please

[@sergiohetrea]

This is the best kind of cringe
