- Can you say Three-Hundred-Fifty-Five? (355 in one round! Holy crap Batman!)
The play location is a settlement in Skellige, I forget exactly where though.
So yeah, this is my highest point match and round thus far in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. If you are a gwent aficionado, or are curious as to what this mini-game actually is, I hope you enjoy this video!

"Invented by dwarves and perfected over centuries of tavern table play, Gwent is a game of initial simplicity and ultimate depth, something beloved by both road-weary travellers during long nights around the campfire and elegant nobles looking to liven up dragging dinner parties."
Gwent is a fast-paced card game that can be played within The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on every platform.
The game is about the clash of two armies locked in mortal struggle on a battlefield where the players are the leaders and the cards their forces. With four different factions offering unique combat styles and endless paths to victory, Gwent is every adventurer’s first choice when it comes to one-on-one card-based dueling.
Take risks and think on your feet, strategize and deliver cunning combos, use potent magic and mighty hero cards and be the last one standing on the field of honor!
On June 15, 2016 CD Projekt anounced the development of a stand-alone Gwent: The Witcher Card Game. GWENT will be available at release for Xbox One, PC and PlayStation 4 as a free to play game that puts you, not your cards, in the center of the action.
There are five "sets" or decks of cards; the Northern Kingdoms, Nilfgaardian Empire, Scoia'tael and Monster decks come with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt while the Skellige deck comes with the Blood and Wine DLC. You choose one of these to play with provided the found set has at least 22 cards. Each faction set includes unique cards and leaders. All five factions, when chosen as active deck, provide a different bonus during the Gwent match:
- Nilfgaardian Empire: Wins any round ending in draw. Has mainly single, strong cards spread between the three rows, multiple Heroes and a lot of Spies.
- Northern Kingdoms: Grants an extra card upon winning round. Has the largest collection of Tight Bond cards that multiply each other's strength, generally favours Siege units.
- Scoia'tael: Decides who takes first turn. Has a number of Muster cards and the largest number of cards with Agility that lets them be placed in either the Melee or Ranged rows.
- Monsters: Keeps random Unit Card out after each round. Has the largest number of Muster cards to swarm opponents, heavily favours Melee units.
- Skellige: 2 random cards from the graveyard are placed on the battlefield at the start of the third round.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt[a] is an open world action role-playing video game developed by CD Projekt RED. Announced in February 2013, it was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on 19 May 2015. The game is the third in the series, preceded by The Witcher and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, which are based on the series of fantasy novels by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski.
Played in a third-person perspective, players control protagonist Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter known as a witcher, who sets out on a long journey through the Northern Kingdoms. In the game, players battle against the world's many dangers using swords and magic, while interacting with non-player characters and completing side quests and main missions to progress through the story. The game was met with critical acclaim and was a financial success, selling over 6 million copies in six weeks. The game won multiple Game of the Year awards from various gaming publications, critics, and game award shows, including the Golden Joystick Awards, The Game Awards, Game Developers Choice Awards, and SXSW Gaming Awards. Two critically successful expansion packs were released for the game, titled Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine.

Note: This was played before certain patches, so there were at one point, 5 total Blue Stripes Commando cards in the game. I believe I was playing one of the early patches for Witcher 3 that took out one of the Blue Stripes Commandos leaving 4 in the game. Normally, there should never be more than 3 of any card type in the game, and with later patches, this was addressed. So the only way to get 5 Blue Stripes Commandos would be to have a copy of Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (NOT the GOTY version) and then make sure you don't have the patched game and disconnect from the internet. Play the game until you've collected all the gwent cards, then you can connect to the internet and update (I think) and still retain the cards in your deck. In this instance, if you want the expansions, you'd have to buy them digitally on PS4. I think I'd be crazy enough to do something like that.
.....I have Game of the year edition and I have 4.....
no one cares about gwent
bro just play normally
@@cutiepie5884 maybe you don't but most witcher 3 players do
the sick combo is always medic -> another medic -> another medic -> spy
pov: nilfgaard gameplay
another medic, another medic, another medic, ....
@@user-oh6zu3ij1t nilfgaard is more like spy -> spy -> spy -> spy -> spy
It's the meta my dude kkkk
When they pass in that last round and you think..
Oh you done fucked up now
I can't believe I cheered you on whilst watching. I can finally understand my father and brothers' reactions when watching football 😂
Thank you for that. Witcher 3 is one of those games I would eventually like to play for TH-cam, maybe I'll do it sometime in 2020, who knows?? The question I would ask myself is how I would structure it. Would I just run around haphazardly and do random things or focus down quests with the odd exploration afterward for each episode or two? How would I play Gwent, would they be extra episodes, like 1.5's in between main episodes? There's a lot to think about here...
@@StoneMonkWisdom maybe you can have like a weekly or twice weekly uploads, with main quests on one day and exploration/side quests/etc on another. You can even have the non-main quests at longer episodes to fit more. Just a suggestion. I just finished my game literally yesterday and even then I still haven't fully explored all of Skellige's points of interest 😂
I've done all the other maps points of interest and I wanted to explore points of interest before moving on to the main game but I got impatient 😂
Now I've finished the main game and the DLCs so I guess I'll head back to Skellige and finish those unexplored areas
That's awesome, which of Geralt's love interests did you pick? Yennifer or Triss? Also, what difficulty were you playing on?
@@StoneMonkWisdom I pick Yen 98% of the time. I've only picked Triss once I think, out of curiosity. Yen's a bitch I admit but idk I find Geralt and Yen's interactions to sound and feel more organic. Sometimes Geralt looks downright awkward around Triss to me. But this is all my own preference.
I've played it on sword and story mostly because I really do want the story without the frustration of combat. One of my favourite activities in the game is going around on Roach and finding random quests and/or Gwent players 😂
First time booting up Witcher 3, I start the game on Death March.
Best and scariest decision I made in the game. Learning to dodge in the tutorial battle at the very start took a couple tries, then the level 3-4 Drowners in White Orchard started killing me. I learned a lot after twenty-something game overs.
Talk about twisting the knife.
This seems like an interesting game series. Closest i have gotten to it was when i saw a "this is how you don't play the witcher 2 ft. DSP".Was funny stuff lol.
My best game was against Sasha at the Passiflora, score 2-1, won the third game (which was full of damn Scorch, lots of spies and f* weather cards) because Nilfgaard wins when there's a tie. Had a smile on my face for days.
Yeah, I always have a distaste for when my opponent uses a Scorch card, and I loathe when it gets used 2 or 3 times against me. Weather cards also aggravate me in this game, but not as much as Scorch. Sasha is quite formidable at the Passiflora Gwent Tournament and having spies and decoys becomes a must which prolongs the match, but also kinda makes it all the more exciting.
I still think Sasha was my hardest opponent to beat. Idk if I was just having really bad cards but she was _difficult_
The stupid high stakes tournament took me three hours to go through, I kept having difficult hands
One of the best cards in the game of Gwent is certainly the Decoy card and any number of Spies provided you also have Revive effect cards. Without Decoy, and a couple Revive, Sasha can be a lot tougher to handle. Even though she retaliates with Decoy as well and her own spies.
The art is way better in this then what we have for game of the year! I'm jealous! 😀
How so?
@@barbecuesauceeyebrows8254 heroes card style
I'm here because of watching the new witcher series, just started playing witcher 3 again and this was so satisfying to watch
Right on, I've been watching season 2 of The Witcher as well! I'll finish watching in a couple days from now as I just finished the 5th episode earlier. I don't like binging sometimes, and like taking my time watching 1-2 episodes per day. I've been pleased with every single episode thus far, very entertaining, and very good indeed!
Please someone help when I play Gwent I only have 10 or 12 Gwent cards while it shows 20 in deck. ,my cards finish in first round
Definitely worth changing the settings to hard in the options for gwent. Really challenging. I am a bloody gwent master 🤘
scott brogan wait you can separately change Gwen’s settings?
Ahmed Mehmood oh yes. Way better game on hard Have fun dude
@@MrGbro73 hahahaha... I was actually kinda hoping to make it easier for the tournament 🙃
I've been on Gwent hard mode and its not really challenging. I'm without Ciri/Geralt, and some other important cards and I'm still able to easily beat merchants and won the tournament without trouble.
@@wavy9434 nice
Question, how do you get another picture for the Villentrethemert card? For me, it is a dragon! Or is it another one?
Free DLC to be obtained on PSN, and possibly Steam for the alternate character outfits, alternate card art, etc.
The innkeep in the end was like: 👁️👄👁️
Wow that’s really satisfied😍
Satisfying indeed. I love having 4 or 5 Blue Stripes Commandos, too bad with newer patches they removed the extra Blue Stripes Commandos. Making the max 3, like every other card.
You are playing like me for 90% i think. i like this video😂👍
What 😳🤣🤣🤣🤞
Me too, the best strategy is to bluff your best cards and save it for the end. Cheers!
Have there been new cards added or something? I don't recognise some..
In this video, I only have about 98% of the Gwent Cards from the Vanilla game. However, there is a new deck with many new cards available for it in the Blood and Wine DLC Expansion along with new Gwent music too.
Nice game :)
Btw, the game release on android March 24th ! Preinscription on the play store grants you a unique card.
Witcher 3 Wild Hunt is coming to ANDROID?! Can it handle it?
@@StoneMonkWisdom Gwent is being released on Android, not The Witcher 3.
@@StoneMonkWisdom LMAO
@@StoneMonkWisdom my phone can handle it with a 3gb ram and octacore processor. But since it's such a big game installing it will exceed the 4gb rom buffer before overload the phone allows to ensure it runs at optimal levels. I'm really sad this happened since I was so looking forward for it 😭
How do you get 4 of the same card when the gwent list says there's only 3
In earlier versions of this game, before like 1.06 to 1.09, the devs patched the game to remove one of the cards, then both of them. The save file I had for this video was when there were four Blue Stripes Commandos in the game. I mean, that's how the game released, with 5 Blue Stripes Commandos to be obtained in Witcher 3 Wild Hunt before they fixed a lot of the bugs and glitches and unintended things.
@@StoneMonkWisdom True I am replaying a old save file and also have cards that has been removed since
Geralt. You bastard.
It bothers me to this day that I didn’t win the tournament in my original play through. Shan’t let that happen again.
Why didn't you save before tournament
GRM Stormzy I did. I just didn’t feel like replaying the matches I’d already won. Some of them had been damn tough.
@@Chronocrits oh
When I first started playing Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, I said screw it at the main menu and choose the difficulty: Death March. Best decision I made!
Literally screaming decoy > medic to bring Thalmer back in round 2 😂
that guy is gonna retire from gwent after that lol
Overkill
watch on 1.5 speed
Thinking and coming up with a strategy given the cards you're dealt is important, I'm a thinking man, and as such take time to deliberate and strategize not only defeating my opponent but also devastating them beyond all reason with a high point value! I also agree, 1.5x speed makes it more palatable to a general audience.
i searhed for "best gwent moments" all that comes up is that shitty standalone game :( atleast this is there!
You made several mistakes with the medic tbh, it could've gone much better
3:11 you could have used Thaler instead of Djikstra
I could've done a lot of things in life, but now I'm here... =P
He saved him for the third round. He won the second already at that point
and i thought my deck is good
Okay okay, I gotta ask why no weather card though? 😐
I don't typically like using Weather Cards. The only one I find useful really is Biting Frost on the off chance you face a Monsters deck but also not playing Monsters yourself. A Clear Weather card might be good in certain scenarios as well but I prefer to load up on Decoy and Commander's Horns instead. I'm not even that fond of Scorch.
@@StoneMonkWisdom Alright man but what about Skelige storm, you know that card can truly turn the tide the other way! 😐
I haven't played the Skellige Deck or unlocked it. I stopped playing Witcher 3 at a certain point and have not returned to it unfortunately. So many games, dedicating yourself to one of them is to sacrifice playing 100 others. Not to mention replays. Someday I would like to return to Witcher 3 for a legit full playthrough and expansions.
@@StoneMonkWisdom Well if you plan to return to Witcher 3 someday,do give that Skellige deck a shot,you're gonna actually love it! 😀👍
@@StoneMonkWisdom currently doing that. Wish me luck
Это королевства севера а не Скеллиге
Играя за север, учитывая что там можно получить до 4 карт шпионов (включая карту героя), может выиграть каждый дурак
Close game...xD
Yeah, I was sweating bullets! ;P
remove random crit
Dont play spys if an opponent has passed unless you have 0 or 1 spy
Why?
he can pick the spys with a medic in another round...
Gadottinho Yea but the spy will go to your side and it'll increase your score. If you use it when he's playing he can still decoy the card.
@@user-cm4op2kz3y and decoys arent as useful as medic unless u use them to reuse medics
Ошибку допустил в первом же раунде
Low level shenanigans
Total annihilation
Complete decimation!
Ok ok game nothing great
Какая ужасная озвучка Геральта в Английском языке
Wrong tactics so many time... got triggered while watching
Okay, give me a play by play of "wrong tactics" where I made "mistakes" with each card I selected and when I should have played each card. Go ahead, tell me every single "correct" move from *start to finish,* every single action with time codes. I'll take it as constructive criticism.
Man there’s no wrong tactics. There might be better tactics, sure. Wrong is not the word for it, especially in a video game
