So I shouldn't open any kegs until then?
Hold on to them, you're guaranteed at least one premium in each keg. There's no set date, but it's before the 28th.
I want the 150 premium cards achievement so now is the time to crack kegs right?
Wait so I can't go below rank 19?
Now I'm stuck versusing players with full collections non-stop? This is so fucking frustrating. Just getting five wins for a quest is going to take me hours at this rate. I feel like it would be faster to grind round wins by just winning the second round and then conceding then trying to play out each match?

Hmmm I think I want premium cards more than I want the new expansion at the moment lol, otherwise that's gonna be a long grind.Kegs you own yes, don't buy new ones since expansion is coming.
See I would like that if I had a fully competitive deck, but I don't. Now I just feel stuck. I only want to clear my dailies at the moment.You can't de-rank at all anymore. Really helped with my anger issues actually. Got me to rank 3 last season. I'm rank 4 and a half atm. but if I lose 2 games and then lose again it's not so bad because I don't lose any progress anymore.
Why don't you play casual instead of ranked? That'll match you against the same level players...My daily grinding consists of losing six times in a row for two reward points
This is fucking miserable, how the fuck did they think a ranking system where you can't go down at all is good? I can't vs players with comparable decks at all.
I hit rank 17 on a win streak but I'm only player level 30 with no collection which is well behind most of the other players. Playing Crach Horn with everything except the Legendaries cuz I don't have them. Basically every game comes down to "hope my opponent plays poorly" because I'm lacking all the tools and most of them aren't.No, don't play casual, you will be matched up with anyone randomly. What rank are you at and what type of deck are you playing?
Casual matches take like 3x longer to find which is why I haven't been playing them.

e: like I just played a game knowing that Arachas Queen was coming but I don't have a Geralt so I was just fucked. I don't think there was anything I could do there except hope he doesn't draw it. I probably should've just conceded instead of waiting 10 minutes for it to happen (although I googled and apparently if you do that too much you get banned so I can't do that)
I thought in 'casual' you play against same level players as yourself and 'ranked' with people who are same rank as yourself...
?
Gwent card artwork is so consistently good it's insane.
I'm rank 4 at the moment, I'll try and push for 0. Season end is 28th, right?
I've found that the main faction I face (a good 40%) are some kind of Monsters.I don't know what decks you face often, but if you find yourself in that position regularly (vs big boosted unit with no tall removal), you could put in something like Spores. It's a 4 provision common iirc. You can always Discard it in games where you don't need it. And if you're a Skellige player I imagine you're working towards owning Coral, which Spores is often used with. There is also Scorch for 200 scraps, but if you are using Horn that might get a bit clunky to use both together (also both are really expensive provision cost).
I think in the case of Arachas Queen it's just a bit of a weird match up for Crach. If you ping off the little spiders you probably aren't getting much bloodthirst, but if you get bloodthirst the spiders keep spawning and you're letting them execute their deck's gameplan.
End of the season is coming up and you will drop back 4 ranks which might help a bit if you feel you are in ranks you can't compete and you'll also get some reward points for your end rank.
Where is the best place to find an accurate database of cards? Googling is kind of useless, it shows me cards from the original game half the time and GwentDB is no longer updated. No idea where to look for the latest set either. Otherwise I'm clumsily trying to search the collection on PS4.

I've been playing Lacerate to try and hurt combo decks that need a big field to set up and just generally get good value but Spores could work, I've got one of those I think. Although I'm not sure how much teching is going to matter with a new expansion a few days away, everything's about to change anyway.
Super useful, thanks.This site is good for it https://gwent.seven7y.com/hc.php
If you click the filters on the search bar you can highlight all the faction or specific ones. Clicking on a card name will bring up a view like it does in-game, with full text and explanations.

What problems do you have (and on what console are you playing)?It'd be nice if they fixed the console versions first. Lots of really annoying issues there. I guess the game will adapt better to touch than controllers though.
Account migration/sharing would be cool but I'm pretty sure consoles are dead in the water there too. Maybe not MS.
PS4 Pro. Not card animations, those are a dream. Best part of the game. Issues are things like input delay or not registering, targets being picked at random, not being able to look at graveyard/deck occasionally, inability to examine cards during play selection. Say I play the spying card that plays the top card of my opponent's deck. I can see the image of card and select where to put it but as far as I can tell there's no way for me to actually read the card's abilities until after playing it. Which is horrible for newcomers.What problems do you have (and on what console are you playing)?
I'm on PS4 Pro and Gwent runs like a dream (card animations and all).
