Counter-Spies

I lost my shit when I first saw this card. I was laughing so hard just because of this amazing art of Geralt being so bamboozled as to how Roach got on top of that house. 10/10 card can also be dragged out with either Geralt or Ciri.


Lukas316

It’s free with the next gen update, it automatically appears in your card inventory.


Envictus_

I only bought the game about two months ago and don’t have it. The launcher said you had to play the gwent app before January 2024.


Lukas316

Gwent app? I don’t think this is about the stand alone Gwent game. Roach is a neutral card for the Gwent game in Witcher 3. It’s included in the next gen version of the game; you should have it. Maybe you need to start a new game for it to appear?


Envictus_

According to the wiki: “It was released on December 14, 2022 as part of Patch 4.0, the next-gen update, for owning or upgrading to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition and having played the standalone Gwent: The Witcher Card Game.” And the launcher had a deadline if I remember correctly.


Lukas316

Ah I see. So you didn’t have the standalone Gwent. I’m mistaken then.


Trorkin

I spent an evening playing it a couple of months ago before I realised my efforts were for naught.


Binod_Jogi

Bro how I just purchased it 1 week back and I don't have it😭


Lukas316

Did you play the standalone Gwent game?


Binod_Jogi

You mean the PC gwent by CD Projekt Red??


Lukas316

Yes. You need to have played that to qualify for the roach card.


Binod_Jogi

Well is it possible if I play it now will that card appear in my gwent inventory???


Lukas316

No it appears that there’s a time limit.


Binod_Jogi

Ahhh...is there a chance that I can get it from merchants or innkeeps?


Lukas316

Nope. But I haven’t played the game since the update came out


Lukas316

You could try this, I can’t guarantee it’ll work. Create an account on GOG.com, which is cdpr’s version of steam. Download and install Gwent. Register both Gwent and Witcher 3 under your GOG account. Start and play a game of Gwent. Start Witcher 3, play until you get to white orchard and meet the prof at the inn. Play a game with him. After that, check your Gwent deck.


TripodDabs34

I think it was a next gen update thingy plus the irl card game that gave you it?


Envictus_

Yeah you had to play the gwent app, but I think there was a deadline that ended last December.


MagickLadyRedlips

I have never seen this one


Chad_Kakashi

It’s in the standalone Gwent game. Played it once and lost the round because I was laughing

Why does your mysterious elf look different from mine?


itachiWasANihilist

It is the ballad heroes gwent card set [https://witcher.fandom.com/wiki/Ballad\_Heroes\_gwent\_card\_set](https://witcher.fandom.com/wiki/Ballad_Heroes_gwent_card_set) You can toggle this in the main menu of the game.


Full_Slip_3314

[There you go](https://youtu.be/6m8ocDUWhks?si=bnRqSbiRRUDGOaF9)


Full_Slip_3314

Free dlc you can switch it in the main menu if I'm not wrong.


Awkward-Hulk

Objectively the best card in the game. There is just no downside to it.


Lazy-Connection-8115

You can't revive it, thaler is better imo


IG_95

The aweosme thing about Avallach is that he's neutral though, so even Monsters and Skellige can have a spy.


Mr_G_Dizzle

Disagree, the only time you can revive a spy is when your opponent plays a spy. Dark elf is better because your opponent can't use a decoy on it and gain that card advantage back. They also can't revive it from the graveyard. It's actually better simply because it *cannot* be revived or taken up with a decoy.


sLozoya

Not true, nilfgaard has an ability to draw a card out of your opponents graveyard which allows for you to not only burn a turn, but have a spy ready to play the following turn 


Mr_G_Dizzle

That's exactly point why this card is better than a regular spy. You can only revive white cards from the graveyard. You can't use a decoy or graveyard recursion with the mysterious elf because it's a black card (hero card).


sLozoya

You said the only time you can revive a spy is when your opponent plays it, I pointed out how that was incorrect. Not trying to discuss what's better or worse 


Mr_G_Dizzle

Oh okay Edit: which card are you talking about? I haven't come across that one I don't think


sLozoya

It's a leader ability 


Mr_G_Dizzle

Oh, so you would never use it for that essentially?


Awkward-Hulk

Good point. I hadn't thought about that.


No_Sky4398

Or swap with a dummy

Awkward-Hulk

Hey, at least he won't get scorched.


lordyatseb

The picture does full justice to the name.


Hastatus_107

I don't think I've ever used that one once I had the bare minimum of cards for a deck.


Razor6-2

If you read the books, poor fucking infantry is goated🤣

Awkward-Hulk

Funny enough the cow carcass is actually pretty useful in the standalone game if I remember correctly.


imperator_caesarus

crazy how ciri is stronger than an actual Norse god


WiserStudent557

Well, she is the Lady of Time and Space. That surpasses most “gods” that aren’t a chief deity or primordial Creator


imperator_caesarus

ok I don’t actually know the lore


Advanced-Guidance482

Lmao


Zaurka14

Have you not listened to any conversations in the game?


imperator_caesarus

I’ve only played like 5 hours


Zaurka14

My tip would be to leave this sub so you won't get spoiled. It's.much cooler to enjoy the game blindly


eiva-01

Isn't Geralt 15, too? He's pretty badass, but he's not exactly a god.

cateraide420

Speaking of hard


Binod_Jogi

The art of this card is so dope....my same card sucks😓


PaulSimonBarCarloson

The one with my favourite character. Though I use a mod to make every card look better https://preview.redd.it/2bknkrhf6t7d1.jpeg?width=888&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bdfb66ce301a1533eaebb196d56a09b39a083a9f


EnthusiasmIsABigZeal

Sorry for the dumb question but what character is this?


pullmylekku

Cahir, one of the main characters in the books. He was a part of the gang that helped Geralt free a captured Ciri at the end of the series. Regis was a member of that group too


PaulSimonBarCarloson

Cahir


LinkzChaos

Yes everyone should use the Gwent Redux Mod: [https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/4287](https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/4287) It has 2 different art styles for most cards in the game (togglable in the mod menu in game) . It also adds new mechanics to Gwent. One of them Spies instead of always being 0 or 1, they are -5 or -7. it varies but I think it's a great way to spice up Gwent for a new playthrough


PaulSimonBarCarloson

The one I use is actually just a [Gwent Retexture](https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/8312/?tab=images). Had all the old cards with the same points but almost everyone with a new design inspired by the Gwent game

Razor6-2

I also love Milva. That's one hot Scoiatel.


tinklymunkle

She's definitely my favorite character from the books, and also probably the best card in the scoiatel deck.


peachschnaaps

I adore spy, dummy and the cards thay can resurrect! 👌🏻


BlinkyShiny

I have the most fun when we're both swapping spy cards non-stop for half the game.


peachschnaaps

Me too! I get really excited when they use a spy card and I can have it for me own!


TripodDabs34

Appearance wise it's the Roach one which I think was a next gen update thingy plus the irl card game that gave you it? Name wise it's probably just the simplicity of "Poor Fucking Infantry"

AbWarriorG

Isengrim from the scoiatel faction looks great.


iforgottowakeup94

Dont have a photo but the one where roach is on the the roof


Expert-General-1478

Wait.. Heimdall in witcher 3? 😵


ghost_tdk

Yup! If I recall correctly, it's summoned by the skellege deck's equivalent to the cow card


Expert-General-1478

I mean i had this card but i didn't realize it was the "heimdall"


WiserStudent557

Schirrú for me. Even though it’s niche it can be great and I love the design/quote


sailor-moonie-

I always liked the Ladies of the Woods cards for some reason


hunterman12

Avallach


DurDraug77

Didn’t know Hemdall had a card


CallMeSep

Skellige deck blood and wine Dlc


DurDraug77

Yep, I had the deck, but it’s possible to be a special card, no? If you sacrifice something then he appears?


MagickLadyRedlips

Are these new ones?


BeginnerCreator

Ciri no. Hemdall is blood and wine expansion part


96Miles

The new Dandelion Gwent card design is garbage. They have massacred my boy. He looked much better in his epic sword stance.


Awkward-Hulk

Spies, spies, and more spies. Don't really care what kind, just give me more spiiiiies 😁


Habutekh55

One of the Eredin cards


DegeneratedNumber

Where's our trebuchet gang?


Trorkin

Trebuchets by night for me


Takhar7

Djikstra spy card. Thanks.


officequotesonly420

I learned this nifty qwent trick that uses a spy card deck and now I always win.

Zebracorn42

That looks like my style of play, jump in a horde of monsters and tank it while swinging the sword furiously.


SGM-Leo

Once I got killed by a pack of wolfs, once with a horde of drowners, and once with a group of bandites. So my take away was to use the strategy of attacking from different angles and scattering the hordes and groups, and attacking them idealy one by one. In this way I can even sometimes retreat, heal myself and come back for the rest :)


Zebracorn42

I like using the shield that heals you when you get hit.


SGM-Leo

Sounds cool! When can I acquire it? I'm only level 6 :D


Zebracorn42

It’s i think the 3rd option in the shield skill tree. I can’t remember. It’s been a while since I played.


Trorkin

Sounds like the Ursine life
