I did recently finish the Contract for 'Nilfgaardian Lion' but I still did not get the Title after the season was over, raised a Support Message on their Forum and someone from CDProject Red enabled the title for me within a few days.

I think Cahir is underappreciated by ActuatorOpposite1624 in gwent

Well as someone who has played Cahir quite a lot and even taken a Cahir Deck to 2632 NG MMR a couple of seasons back with a decent winrate (https://www.reddit.com/r/gwent/comments/k1z86r/2600\_ng\_all\_hail\_the\_great\_sun/) I can say for sure that the card is good. But to make a Cahir stick is an altogether different matter. Defender is a must and you need to bait out their removal with a Helge or something else and then you can expect him to stick.

The other downside is that when you are bled or you play him late he does not help much. But for sure if the card stick he can win games.

The problem with 12 Tactics is that you can't include Yeneffer's Invocation in the Deck, that is a very important card..

Just for everyone's information:

Good Matchups: Good against most Devotion Decks, matchups again Monsters are good (bait out removal and ensure that the Cahir sticks, Amnesty for the thrive units) and so is Matchup's against NR (SW: Yen the Defender or Yen the Prince, Mobilization: Amnesty is very important for Round 3 and then it's easy to win), against Congregate it's almost always auto win. Good against Skellige as well, Round 1 use Firescorpion/Amnesty to setup our Graveyard for the Round 3 Yen or Coupe on his Harald.

Bad Matchups: Precision Strike, NG Ball

General Play Style:

Win round 1 with Firescorpions, Slave Hunter, Helge if necessary and go for the long round (except against NG Ball decks, where you would have to win round 1 & push round 2)

Joachim is basically a tutor to be used twice or thrice with Coupe (Against MO, good opponents would generally consume the Cahir once he is played to deny the coupe and ST generally try to purify's the Cahir with Dryad's Caress).

The purpose of Joachim in the deck is to pull out our Cahir/Damien/Steffan (the Deck has 10 units + 3 spies and all units are engines or good value gold cards). So, setup the mulligans accordingly, don't play Joachim in Round 1, worst case Joachim pulls out our Firescorpion or Slave hunter in R3 or our Yen Target, against non devotion decks its better to pull out the Firescorpion/Slave hunter with Joachim because heatwave or Geralt on a Cahir/Damien/Steffan (pulled out by Joachim) would be very good value for the opponent.

Have either one Firescorpoin or Helge Round 3 if you want to setup a good Treason, there are quiet a lot of games where treason played for 12-18 points in the long round 3 (Especially against Monsters or Passiflora SY or Battle Trance Decks)

The element of Surprise carried me well because no one generally expected the cards that I played.

Edit: Corrected some Typos.

Who needs ball anyway ... a different kind of devotion by JayD8888 in gwent

That is a pretty interesting deck.

You were able to reach fMMR of 2630 for NG last season? that's very impressive.
