Please do ALL cards for ALL factions! I'm sure its a huge undertaking but it would be so valuable to the community. As a newer player who plays only NR it would greatly help me choose another faction to use.
I think Cursed damsel is ridiculously underrated. It is so strong in a lot of decks for multiple reasons. The first is that thrive is so versatile and doesn't always require a catered deck to get good value off of it, and then on top of that unlike cyclops her ability is DESTROY, and not damage which is so strong, allowing it to bypass armor, and shield. On top of that the ability rounds up so if you are at 9, it can destroy a 5. In addition to all that after the ability use its as if its thrive engine is refreshed as the power of the card is now lower making it easier to prock thrive again. I would even argue that the card is excellent especially with TA
I do like Cursed Damsel, but I have a couple issues with her. When opening a round both Nekker and Endrega Larva are better as they set up 2 engines at once and Damsel is too low to trigger the Thrive later in the round like Nekker Warrior can. It's also a lot weaker when you don't have a stratagem to boost it since the 4 damage threshold is very common any damage is good against her for lowering her reach. I don't think she's bad, but the other Thrive bronzes tend to just be better most of the time.
Hey Mister Platinum? Great video idea, but there is one VERY big BUT: I am a newer player, and I don't know many cards. For the future, could you somehow show a screenshot of what the card does before rating it?
Really nice idea for a video! Very interesting to watch and I think you can include golds too. I would put Aen Elle Aristocrat and Navigator to Excellent Tier. These are the only 2 cards I would put in a a different place.
Nice idea and very reasonable tier list! Only thing I'd put up higher is taskmaster actually. Sure there is a condition for the offensive purify, but you got a lot of movement in frost anyway. So a purify that plays for 5 for 4, (potentially 6, 7 with auberon/frost row), that you can also redeploy if need be with red riders, is really good imo!
I can understand putting it a bit higher. You usually do have Dominance for when you want to Purify your own guys but I personally have found having one of the other 4p cards more useful most of the time.
22:18 kikimor warrior would have benefitted so much from a 'Deploy: Gain Zeal (could have a condition like gain zeal if there are X units in row)' would make it strong contender without buffing hive mind.
Imo, the list would have been better if you distinguished between excellent and auto include. Like ogre warrior is excellent in ogroids, but harpy is auto include in any type of deck. That way it emphasises synergies
I.e. auto include in any deck for me would be harpy, fiend, toad, the archgriffen, the bruxa (10 for 5), and larva. And that male succubus card that brings back things from the grave.
@@BiggusDingus325 I thought about having a tier at the top for cards that are auto include for the faction, but I decided not to. None of the cards are actually played in every MO deck (Harpies aren't in Frost, Fiend isn't in GN/regular Deathwish, Griffin is only in Fruits, Alp is only in Vampires, Toad is only in Deathwish and Harpy Spam, Riders aren't in Tatterwing, Inclubs isn't in GN regular Deathwish, etc.) Larva is the closest one but doesn't make it into Frost or all the Witches Sabbath decks. Then I considered doing auto include in their respective decks but it then gets hard to rank place cards like Drowne. I's autoinclude in Tatterwing because its base power is low but outside of that it's never played but since its auto include for that deck it would go in top tier. The same thing applies for cards like Barghest in Viy, Phooca in Ogroids, and Natural Selection in Tatterwing. I didn't they deserved to be in the same tier as things like Fleder that define entire archtypes just because they happen to meet deckbuilding conditions. I don't think there's really a perfect way to separate the tiers since there's a good deck variety in MO at the moment that don't use the same cards, but I tried to at least be clear about what I was ranking them on and be fairly consistent. I spent a lot of time thinking about how I was going to do it prior to making the list.
Good idea for a video. It would be great to see this for other factions as well.
I'm definitely going to do all them
@@platinumpatrol2964 Do golds aswell!
Always hoped for something like this! Can’t wait to see more!
can't wait for other factions tier list. great idea for videos

I'm going to
Banger idea

Good for finding out bc buffing idras
hope we will get gold card tier list for each faction as well
Yup the Monsters one should come out tomorrow

Platinum patrol singlehandedly carries the whole Gwent community yet again
I enjoy this
Can’t wait for a ST video about this

Endrega eggs and Nightwraith should play for 8 points like the bridge troll
can not wait to see ng 🤣

Yeah that would've been nice

can you not consume the kiik warrior?
Do you mean Worker (the exposed kill itself one)? You can but the payoff is a lot less than triggering a Deathwish on something else.
