Cards Unchanged since Homecoming

So the TWIG video got me thinking today, when Burza mentioned that they have plans to rework the Éibhear Hattori card, I noticed that this card has literally never changed since it was released at Homecoming. Like nothing, not a single character or numeral has changed in the past 2 1/3 years.

Anyways, I thought there might be a few more of these lurkers out there, so I went digging on [gwent.one](gwent.one) (an excellent Gwent resource made independently by teddybee_r) and boy did I find some. While I was mainly looking for cards that literally hadn't changed at all, I've also included in the list cards that are essentially the same, but may have had tag tweaks or gone through a cyclical balance change and ended up where they started.

Let me know what you guys think and if I've missed any. I think it's kinda interesting to see which cards can still compete and which have been clearly left behind. Also note how few leftovers ST and SK have. Favoritism much? /s I hope to see all these cards viable in the near future!
