A lot of cool Stuff that i will now build some decks for: - Symbiosis with Filavandrel and Circle - Fruits Control Deck from a few Patches ago with Ethereal - GN Witchers in SK and in NR, especially in NR with Rogner and Immortal Cavalry - Dun Banner Swarm with Foltest and Pavetta with Uprising - Sewer Raiders and Casino Bouncers in every Syndicate Deck, but i especially want to try Crimes, maybe crimes with fireswarm

good new year to the smart and honest player that is Bomblin !

[@Chronically_ChiII]

I'm so happy that you are an optimist Gwent player. Your videos are very wholesome and I appreciate that. Subbed.

[@Chronically_ChiII]

Filavandrel buff is GOOD! Let's make the tree 10 prov. symbiosis already got nerfed with tempest 7prov.

[@Chronically_ChiII]

Make a mage deck! With Cintrian Spellweaver

[@DzikJestDziki89]

no one is currently playing fallen knight so im happy because i loved playing fire swarm Syndicate in the old days and this deck took me to pro more than year ago. I'm happy with these changes, as for the rest, we'll see how it goes .

Thanks for this analysis! I don't understand why Cave Troll was a problem. I haven't even seen many decks with it while playing in rank 3 to pro last season 🤔

[@Bomblin]

I think people are just tired of some binary and repeatable monster tactic which is hide something behind defender and copy it like idr spam, Kelly or even oldschool gerni or meme tugo deck. That’s why sabbath got changed too. But at the same time I don’t think adjusting cave troll changes anything significantly

[@Bomblin]

Just to add to my previous sentence: people also tend to blame stuff based on emotions, not numbers. Losing against those decks and also things like cultists, mill, reaver hunters etc feels helpless. When you can’t counter those decks it feels like you can’t do anything than just lose. Even if the win rate of those decks is small, losing against them are more frustrating than against for example mid range decks

[@halabak]

@@Bomblin that is true. I remember how frustrating it was to lose against triple gerni spam and at the same time you forget how many times you have instant K.O:d the deck by just purifying Troll and heatwaving the Gerni. But matches like that aren't fun, no matter the result.

[@Bomblin]

@@halabak yes exactly! Tho I don’t think adjusting power to cave troll changes much

[@dannyavery5578]

It could be by all the Russian Nilfgaard players who can Enslave (6) it, or Muzzle it? There is usually a motive for something that appears random.

cool patch

[@Manfred71]

My only issue is nerf to Inspired Zeal. It doesn't only affect siege, but also mages, duelers, soldiers and blue stripes. Not a fan of this change :/

[@Bomblin]

To be honest, that’s why I think it’s a good change :D maybe not needed but too many archetypes rely on this leader ability. I hope people will start experimenting with something different

[@Manfred71]

@@Bomblin Many already underplayed and/or weak archetypes just became even weaker...

[@rulx726]

It doesn't matter if you are a fan or not, it's a justified change. That's a control leader

[@NahNoWayy]

I mean, like it or not, the change is justified and doesn't kill those archetypes.
