Our Tips for Winning
-
Know and leverage your faction's strengths
Each faction has its own mechanics (e.g., Monsters = high values, Nilfgaard = control, Scoia’tael = cunning), so adapt your playstyle to the chosen faction and anticipate an opponent who might use a complementary strategy.
-
Alternate between aggression and strategic play
Playing too slowly or too much can exhaust you. If you have the advantage, consider passing at the right moment to save your hand for the next round; this can surprise your opponent.
-
Observe the opponent and adapt quickly
Watch their played cards, effects already triggered, and anticipate their plan. Adapting your gameplay during the game (changing tactics, slowing down, or speeding up) is a major advantage.
