It ' s not that much more reliable though , since combo requires an additional card to be cast so it ' s really a Brewmaster X , where X is however much mana you spent to enable combo . <| sep |> 1 Gold is a tough situation I don ' t envy your position of now being behind against most beta players . I ' ll go for a different approach and say the reason you ' re losing isn ' t necessarily that you aren ' t improving , a lot of it does come down to the deck to be honest , although we can all still improve our play . Golds in Gwent are stronger than other cards so you ' re at a disadvantage this is why I wish there would be at least some commonrare golds for newer players . Crafting Ciri sounds like a great idea , reasonable crafting cost and incredibly powerful effect that should increase your winrate massively . It can also go in all other decks so a very safe craft , unless she gets nerfed . p
