Wild Hunt will be the new “toxic” deck in the next season.

But before you pick up your torches, let me explain myself.

First of all: "you didn't even saw all the new cards yet", "wait for the patchnotes". My assumption is based on simple fact: "WH will recive a buff". And then it comes to Gwent buff cycle:

"Archetype too weak, buff it" > is buffed > "archetype still too weak, buff it more" (we are here with Wild Hunt) > is buffed again > "archetype too strong, nerf it" (here are for example NG soldiers) > is nerfed > rioters are content for a while, before the cycle starts again (here are Dwarfs).

Then I know that nerfs requests do not apply to entire archetype, but rather single (broken) cards.

But why Wild Hunt will be "toxic"? Because of it's uninteractivity. Actually you cannot do anything with frost on your board (expect trying to avoid it by row stacking, but MO has lot of movement tools, or armor). Is WH deck strong right now? Rather average, not unplayable, but not meta. What happened if WH becomes more popular? (I'm not saying OP or strong). People start to complain.

Prepare yourself on a posts like: "Make Clear Skies great again, let us deal with the weather".

And at last, this post is not made in terms of balance and meta decks, but rather "in the (complaing) spirit of this community. So to hold the tradition, I started with complain about future complains.
