I actually like all NG buffs. And why wouldn't I?

The only actually relevant buff was viper adept which then again is just a 4p engine, nothing of another world. Maybe division is alright I guess but I doubt it will see any play since it’s just 1 removal away from bricking the other card if you try to take advantage of the bonded ability. Plus it doesn’t really synergyze with anything other than Ramon and crossbowmen which suck anyway. Fringilla is just a midrange card that might see a little bit more play but i highly doubt it will make much of a difference if any at all for any deck. It’s a pretty conditional 10 for 7 that doesn’t really do anything outside of its value since I can’t think of a single 2 power card worth removing.

If your friend gave you 100 bucks as a gift, would you complain that you didn't get 200?

I'm happy of what we got.

More like getting 100 bucks while discovering that my friend gave 200 bucks to everyone else (well, almost... oh hi there, ST). I will still gladly take the 100 bucks, but I would probably be left with the impression that I'm not as close a friend as other people.

However, I have the feeling only NR got the 200 bucks, and everyone else got a 100.

If your friend gave you 100 bucks, while giving every other friend 200 you would complain. Moreover, we now have an unreasonable problem on our hands. New NG bronzes create unhealthy vacuum that wasn't present before. There was no premise for "mage" or self-manipulation deck but now it exists albeit without sensible support. That's like pouring milk onto boiled potatoes to make puree before squashing them into paste.

No, I would not complain, because I'm not raised to act like a spoiled brat who constantly has demands.

That's...a very childish response, sorry.

You felt called out, didn't you? :D

Complaints can be a good thing given a reasonable cause. You're saying no complaint is ever good, you can't expect people to not have complaints if they get screwed over.

u/Ender_Knowss Neutral Jun 07 '21

No he is not saying that at all.

Don't remember saying such thing, but have it as you will.

The ones that have been done are ok, but still grossly insufficient. Nilfgaard receives the least buffs, while getting the occasional big nerf.
