  • Gwent high score round of 554, played on PS4 and max difficulty setting.
    Round 1: Geralt wins passively (0 points wasted)
    Round 2: Geralt wins playing all cards in the winning round (554 points)
    Since it is a best-of-3, and Geralt won 2 rounds, there is no Round 3.
    Question: why not Horn on front row? Answer: Dandelion/Jaskier card already applies Horn effect.
    Question: did you lose Round 3? Answer: Geralt won both rounds and the game is over.
    Question: how to get five Blue Stripe commandos? Initially only 3 were available. When patch v1.1 arrived for the first DLC, it was possible to get 5 for some time. About a year later, CDPR patched it back to 3 maximum. So it's no longer possible to get 5 Blue Stripes if your game has the latest patches.
    The strategy I used is the same as my previous 465 point run using vanilla cards, except here I use some better cards only available in paid DLC. The theoretical max is 594 points if Geralt gets lucky enough to collect all "spies" on his side of the board. To get a very high score you must play on max difficulty because the opponent has more spies and decoys than lower difficulties, and the opponent having better cards actually help you get a higher score overall.
    The basic idea of get very high scores is to play spies and decoys to resurrect cards, and play much more than the typical maximum of 10 cards (you can play up to 34 cards with Nilfgaard deck). You also want to win a round by wasting very few points, and then win a round by using all of your cards for a big score. The best opponent is Sasha in Passiflora in Novigrad since she has 4 spies, 3 decoys, and 4 medics, which keeps the round alive for a long time. She also has 3 scorch cards, but you can be clever about what cards you play and in what order to prevent her AI from using them.
    Getting 500+ takes many attempts because you need a few things to work out just right:
    1. craft a deck that is possible to extract fully. The Nilfgaard and Northern Realms decks can both extract 30+ cards using spies, decoys and medics.
    2. the four Gaunter cards summons are worth big points, but you must draw Gaunter before any of his three Summons. For each summon you draw before Gaunter, you "lose" a card. It is just luck to draw Gaunter first. A safer tactic is to ignore these four cards and use Trebuchets, less reliant on luck but lowers the theoretical max score to 578.
    3. need to manipulate the opponent AI into feeding you spies. Sasha has many spies and decoys, and can Steal one card. Use these for your own benefit let Sasha recycle spies so that you can use them yourself.
    4. spies are worth points and you want them to be on your half of the board at the end. There are 8 spies in this match and six are worth points. In this video I only got 2/6 spies, which is not good. There are tricks to manipulating Sasha into feeding you spies, such as inviting her to Steal a spy from your discard pile, scorching her spies, and generally ensuring that she uses her Medic cards on spies and not anything else.
    Note that although Sasha has 3 scorches, she has no bad Weather effect cards. You can avoid the scorches by playing low point cards first so that a scorch would hurt her. She will not play it. If you've already beaten the Tournament quest, it's still possible to score 490+ rounds against random end-game merchants who use Nilfgaard decks.

    imagine this in real life, the nilfgaard player just sat there watching him place 50 cards on the table

    • @alexpenev
      @alexpenev  7 ปีที่แล้ว +720

      In real life a Nilfgaard player probably wouldn't use all of its spies and then pass. It's a quirk of the AI to do that and it's usually a bad tactic since it means you're using up your turns while the opponent is not using any turns. The best time to play a spy is as a do-nothing-turn to force the opponent to make an action. In real life there would probably be more weather cards used, too!

      AFGuidesHD if this was real life when he passed like a dumbass in the first round the opponent would've just place 1 card and won the round instead of throwing it with all those spies, which were much better if they were played the next round.

    It's insane how CD PR made probably the greatest minigame ever put into a videogame. How many minigames can say they incented the creation of their own standalone game? Personally I prefer the in-game Witcher 3 version of Gwent, and I don't even know whether that's a good thing or a bad thing.

    • @alexpenev
      @alexpenev  8 ปีที่แล้ว +997

      I don't think she carries any weather cards (she prefers Scorches), but in general the idea is to save your power cards for last so she is usually leading, therefore playing weather would be bad for her. Look again and you'll notice that she's usually in the lead, until the end. Playing weather, even scorch, in most of her turns would hurt her own points more than mine, so she doesn't do it.

      cycopl just leave hero cards, spies and all cards with special effects (northern realms) minus those 1 point cards and you will run a train against every opponent, win a tournament without any problem (considering you have collected all northern realm and special - non faction cards of course). put 3x decoy and 2x commander's horn and Foltest's ability to clear weather effects. you should be by 27 cards in deck, 9 heroes (without cards from expansions). You probably won't get so many points but believe me - you don't need it, NPCs don't score that high (never did in my game at least) and the only trophy/achievement is for scoring 187+ which you can do easly with the deck I described here :)

If you can, you should also grab any spies the enemy throws at you. Then, simply throw down all the summon melee cards, and use Horn. If the enemy doesn't do a Frost--->Villentretenmerth, you've basically won that round with only 2-3 plays.

      Mostly correct. The extra cards weren't originally there and somehow ended up there after the HoS mega-patch. Tons of players have got 5 of them since they were easy to find/purchase.
      I'm not sure that the second statement is strictly correct. IIRC you could buy multiple Decoys from one merchant instead of visiting three merchants separately, and it would just cause the other two merchants not to sell you extras. In a sense he "restocked" by taking the card away from another merchant's stock. This glitch may have something to do with that, since you can only buy 2 extras instead of 3 extras.
