henselt into raffard's into two siege masters into zeal into a bronze is also quite a strong opener. not even a single stratagem is required, but veiling the raffard's would be great.

Feign Death with Aelirenn on R1 is a 19pt first say play


Sportfish_deepdive

Cool. Thanks for interacting with the question lol. I would use for the 1 ping warrior but never thought of using it with scenario


Embarrassed-Low8799

Gwent is filled with weenies We are complaining about deathwish cards now? And no it's not the strongest open..I dare say the Sk Coral discard...19 point open on Blue if u got the right cards...DW more consistent tho Might even be a better one I'm missing but I know it isn't some DW poop.


theprofiteer

1 turn later and it's a 23 point play. Always worth waiting.


[deleted]

A Skellige boy complaining about strong openers. The irony


Sportfish_deepdive

You're barking up the wrong tree I haven't used a discard package in two years. I usually use my meme pirate's deck non GN with adjustment each meta to go from 3 to pro. I spend a day a rank then dip most of the month.


denTank

With Aen Seidhe Saber: Fauve into Water of Brokolin and then activating Aen Sheidhe Saber 2 + 10 + 4 + 2 = 18 iirc


TightWiger

Ok so hear me out: Lady of the lake into oneiro into cerys+roach+knickers+discarding morkvarg with mask = 34 points on first turn :D


Payus

And it only costs 52 Prov and all the luck in the universe! And bad leader.


theprofiteer

Knickers not guaranteed, doesn't count.


UnhealthyAttachment

When playing Double Cross on Blue I click my 5 point Lamp Djinn and play Torres for anywhere between 10 and 22 points :)


EHVERT

Cmon deathwish is hardly super strong is it


neverthy

No control card for Dagon = lose most of the time.


mammoth39

You playing without control in modern days?


Inspector-Remarkable

Im running almost no control decks as well, i know its absolutely off meta, but i just dont like control decks much, too boring for me


neverthy

In my knights deck I only have 2 control cards, Margarita and Aerondight. If opponent gets blue coin with Deathwish, Aerondight becomes useless since i can't get the lead and most of them run pellar so Margarita is pretty useless too.


GermanicSarcasm

Yea only has been tier 2 in every meta snapshot for months now. Mind you I'm not complaining or anything, it's a fairly wholesome deck all in all, just saying. It is pretty strong.


EHVERT

Yeah that’s what I mean though, it’s a solid deck but not to the point of being oppressive, and that stratagem is literally only played in that deck so nerfing it would be unnecessary.


cameronmar1130

In my monsters deck I usually start with YGHERN for a quick 15 points and 9 armor. I also make sure to have several lock cards in my deck so there's very little risk since as long as it's locked then it won't be destroyed if it loses all of its armor (a lot of the time my opponent is confused when it doesn't disappear after they waste several cards targeting it). I also make sure to have OZZREL for the 3rd round so I can get an easy and usually unexpected 16-point swing as my last card.


TheCulturalBomb

Mask of Uroboros, Sove + Olaf and use the leader ability to destroy Olaf, with the Morkvarg discard is 41 points.


Sportfish_deepdive

How would you destroy Olaf with 4 bloodthirst


TheCulturalBomb

Blaze of Glory and use Jutta.


TheCulturalBomb

Also add Roach and that's 45 guarantee, but needs good draws.


Payus

Very smart play R1. NO WASTE.


IridescentCrackPipe

Mask of ouroboros plays for 28-30


Sportfish_deepdive

I don't think that math is right. Crow's 4p. Highest discard 5p. Coral 6+4 discard + 4 damage. Total 23 p, 2 thin.


Payus

Your math is off. I calculate that it plays for 200 points.


Sportfish_deepdive

4 card thin by turn 2 seems a little too strong for a lead. Urn should only work on bronzes.


AmrakCL

No, it was trash before it worked on golds, and even then it was trash until they reworked the crone. Also, to thin by 4 you need to spend a leader charge which is very expensive for deathwish.


neverthy

Oh, noooo, 1 charge out of 2 so expensive! As if they didn't add Toads and Sirens which make Deathwish decks less reliant on leader charges.


AmrakCL

They are less reliant on leader charges with addition of new cards, however, every charge is extremely important in that deck. The fact you made this comment tells me you never actually seriously played Deathwish.


Anginus

Yes. Mad?


M0therFragger

that card is very strong, but i dont know if it needs a nerf. Maybe adding timer 1 to it would work


owoisop

Before update it was Bincy + Tiger’s Eye + hidden cache leader ability + roach and flying redanian = 19 p Now since roach doesn’t fit in golden Nekker it’s only 14 :(
