Analysis of the Island of Blood and Wine card deck in "The Witcher 3"

The Gwent tournament in Blood and Wine is a designated card. That is the Shidao card. (With Shidao poker, you are not afraid of low output, but with bad character)

I played no less than 20 games with Shidao. Let me talk about my feelings first. Without the help of the spy card, the dwarves refused to accept it and came to cause trouble.

A brief introduction to the deck: There may be more later. By the end of this article, I have accumulated 19 cards + won the championship cup in the competition.

Let’s talk about the passive first. After the third game starts, you can randomly draw 2 basic cards from the discard pile and put them on the field.

Two leadership cards

1. The effect of adverse weather has been adjusted to be halved

Before the DLC, the effect of adverse weather did not count playing friends, etc. When the BUFF is applied, the basic card blood is reduced to 1. But this leadership card skill can make the basic card's health only reduced by half. (Key tips for this skill: This skill is passive and is automatically triggered when adverse weather cards appear in the game, but cannot be used actively)

2. Shuffle the player's grave cards back into the deck

< p>This is an actively used skill. But this skill also has trigger conditions, that is, there need to be cards in the discard pile. Of course, this is nonsense. Let’s focus on this skill. This skill is indeed CDPR’s own, because it takes effect on both the enemy and ourselves at the same time. The effect of this skill is much simpler and easier to understand than the official description. After using this skill, all the basic cards in the discard piles of both the enemy and ourselves, just the basic cards, will be returned to the deck. In other words, here After the skill is used, the cards that were previously placed in the discard pile can no longer be returned to the field. For example, if there is a melee 7-blood skeleton card in your discard pile, and you have Yennefer in your hand, then after I use Yennefer, I can get the melee 7-blood skeleton card from the discard pile. Return to the field and use it, but after triggering this tie skill, you will also use Yennefer and you will not see the melee 7-blood skull card. The effect is the same for both the enemy and us.

To put it simply, if you shuffle the discard pile before the start of the third game, you will die passively. As for the timing of using the above leadership skills, the idea is to preserve the value of passiveness. Moreover, this skill can be very effective in controlling the opponent's repeated use of certain awesome cards in the discard pile.

Weather Card

There is an additional unfavorable weather card with a wave pattern. The effect is an integrated rain and fog effect. Trigger the rain and fog effects together.

N basic hero cards

The task requires 19 cards. If you don’t collect all of them, you will not be allowed to play the game. Here I will focus on a few or several types of cards.

Other cards

1. About mushroom cards and berserker

There seem to be two types of mushroom cards. One is the Big Mouth in the special card, and the other is the Hero 8 Blood Mushroom card. Big Mouth is similar to a command and can be applied to all three types of cards. But the Hero 8 Blood Mushroom card is a long-range bow card.

When the berserker encounters the mushroom card, it will transform into a bear with 8 health in the current round. So here is a detail. When the Berserker turns into a bear, whether it is played to the discard pile or taken back into the hand, this card will always be a bear. For example, the 2-blood melee berserker turned into an 8-blood bear when it encountered the Mushroom Mouth, and was then burned into the discard pile. I used the doctor card to bring it back to the field, and it was an 8-blood bear. After you become a bear, you are a bear and you will always be a bear.

Personally, if you touch mushrooms and berserkers separately, whether it is a mushroom or a low-blooded berserker, it will be of no use other than occupying positions and wasting pits. Although it is said that turning into a bear means one's life will be burned, but as the saying goes, you can't change into a bear, grandma is just a bear.

2. Bow 6 blood skull card

This card can be said to be the unmedicated version of the warrior 7 blood skull card.

The instant kill target conditions for Warrior 7 are those with more than 10 warriors in the row. The instant kill range of Bow 6 is the entire field, and the effect is like burning. But the judgment target of this card includes itself. . If 6 is the highest card on the field when this card is played, then all 6 blood cards will be cleared. If there is no card on the board, I will draw 6 skull cards first. Congratulations, your discard pile is open.

3. 0 blood revenge card

The principle of this card is exactly the same as that of a cow. But the cow turns into an 8-blood basic card, and Revenge turns into an 11-blood hero card.

4. A spy card

Only one spy card can be used in the entire set of Shidao cards. 0 blood hero card. Mysterious elf. Friends who rely too much on spy cards may find this deck a little uncomfortable to use. And there aren’t many hero cards in this deck.

5. Idea

Passive triggering, it is strictly stipulated that it can only be triggered after the start of the third round. Coupled with leadership skills, it can be said that the cards that are returned to the field passively are actually controllable. The difficulty of the Shidao card is not that the card output is insufficient, nor that the deck is scummy. It relies too much on the number of cards brought by the spy card, and ultimately it is impossible to play exciting Gwent cards.

There are a lot of words and a lot to say, but I haven’t played enough and my understanding is still very shallow. I believe it won’t be long before everyone can use Shidao cards to express their own understanding. This article is only for friends who have not come into contact with or have just started to come into contact with the Shidao brand. I hope that this can play a small role in attracting new ideas, so that everyone can easily and happily carry the trophy back to the vineyard.

This article is mainly for friends who are slow to get started and have trouble getting started. Some details that are easy to overlook, as well as some official skill effect descriptions that are too general or too superficial, are made based on actual measurements.
