Talk:Gwent: To Everything - Turn, Turn, Tournament!/@comment-202.168.153.60-20180520185244

Won all matches under hard gwent difficulty on my first try. The quest is harder than "high stakes" but not that hard since skellige deck is not that weak in my perspective. Here are my tips:

1. Get every hero cards and every skellige cards before you try this quest.

2. Discard all bear cards. They are useless. I also discard Triss and Ermion since they have lesser points.

3. Keep Cerys and all 3 Shield Maiden cards in deck.

4. I don't like pirate cards. They're very limited (you can't use them to destroy any card less than 6). Just use normal scorch card instead.

5. Decoys are useful in certain situations, but they are not necessary for Skellige deck. If you don't have any unit-scorch card or medic card in hand, mulligan away all decoys. (Someone may argue that your oppenent may have spy cards, but based on my observation, in this quest your opponent don't use any spy card except Avallach card)

6. Kambi is very powerful. But you should only use it in the second round. Don't use it in the first round. Otherwise, a zero-point Kambi will probably be summoned to the battlefield in the third round.

7. Choose your leader card based on your opponent's deck. If your opponent uses monster deck, choose Bran. Don't forget to add more weather cards to your deck (storm and frost) if you use Bran. But in other situations, I slightly prefer to use Crach. Crach has two advantages:

I. In the second round, you can play all your medic cards first  and then play a Crach card to disable your opponent's medic cards. This is especially useful for Scoiatael deck.

II. Near the end of the second round, before you play two powerful unit cards (for example two Craite Warrior cards), play Crach card to clean up your discard pile. So in the third round, your two powerful unit cards will be due to be summoned to the battefield.

8. Since Skellige deck heavily relies on bond cards, keep your deck size as small as possible.
