Can BUSTED thinning make Hoard SY decent? | Gwent Syndicate |

Gwent's most recent balance patch was chaotic at best, buffing some things beyond a standard curve in a way we haven't seen in a long time. One of these things was putting thinning cards to 4p in some instances and for Syndicate, BOTH of them....
With these buffs happening at the same time as Hidden Cache getting another provision, I had to see if this would be enough to elevate the forgotten archetype to playability.

Love that you haven't given up on this awesome game. I look forward to your videos

[@LionHartCards]

That's very kind, thank you! Another video is dropping on Monday! Hopefully a further one on Friday too! :D

[@dannyavery5578]

Cheers fella! We need to revert the thinning change ASAP.

[@LionHartCards]

Couldn't agree more!

Hi Lion Hart i tried out this syndicate deck and i loved it, im trying to climb my rank with this one. Im stil stuck in rank 7. Love the content!!!

[@LionHartCards]

You can do it!

[@jasonhoward3643]

you are a good lad! looking forward for more gwent vids keep up the good work

[@LionHartCards]

Appreciate it!

Another idea for this archetype is to use townsfolk spam which works great with king of beggars (+1 for each coin KoB gives back!).

[@LionHartCards]

It's definitely one i'll look in to!

I was a little disappointed with the in search of forgotten treasures gameplay. I played it alot last season when it was significantly worse😅 Anyway, it's an engine deck that really wants a long r3. You shouldn't be afraid to go full tempo r1 trying to force the opponent out early with madam and thinners etc, drop candle r2 for flynders crew then scenario r3 behind defender also boat is important. Anyway, I usually enjoy watching you play, just a little constructive criticism, hope you don't mind. I could send you the deck I've been playing if you want. 😊

I think all in Hoard just isn't worth it compared to Jackpot and Vice but i'd love to see what you've tried :D

[@tiro0oO5]

Another forgotten treassure player here. And a huge lionheart fan! However, it really feels you play it for the first time :D … the worst was your placements in the second game, this was just painfull to watch. But please do not take this to negativ :)

[@patricksander4387]

Buff for Morvarg and Lydia for the next Balance council Slave Driver to 6P and Gord up to 1 Power

[@LionHartCards]

Which Morkvarg? Discard version? This would only be ok with a reversion of the crazy buffs discard just got but I would be ok with the trade. The others I am on board with

[@patricksander4387]

@@LionHartCards Discard morkvarg but then i woted for tuisearch back to 5P

[@PandaCool1]

If Lion stops posting, I’m going to stop playing the game. Almost all other streamers walked away :(

[@LionHartCards]

I've always said i'll be here as long as there are enough people enjoying the content! Gwent will always be close to my heart!
