The Broken Debate

witcher gwent cards witcher table

I thought i'd make a thread to see what everybody think is the most broken stuff in the game, and i've come up with 4 categories for people to give their answer on, which is Card, Deck, Archetype, and Combo. Everything you name as your answers don't necessarily have to be "broken" (it's just a catchy title), you can just name stuff that needs a nerf the most. And try to name things that actually see some play in the current meta, because there are some cards for example that are broken but nobody ever plays, so they don't really matter in this debate.

Here's my list:

Card: Saskia

Some people may say Simlas, but i don't think she's broken per-say, Alissa Henson enables Simlas to be "broken", same with Sigvald having to be damaged to turn into a broken card. Saskia is just unconditionally broken, other than having to put 10 tags in deck, which is nothing.

Deck: Syndicate (golden kekker)

With poison being the most powerful status in the game in my opinion, syndicate is able to put together the best poison deck.

Archetype: Cultist

I know some of you are saying "WTF?", but just hear me out here. No, cultist are not tier 1. No, cultist are not competitive, BUT, if they draw all their cards, and you don't have an answer for them, you are simply losing the game. Self-wound was the most broken arc, but nobody plays it anymore with the nerf to Melusine.

Combo: Syndicate's Candle/Azar combo

I would also say Golden Nekker pulling out 2 poisons to get rid of a threat in 1 turn.
