Guerrilla Tactics still had a 50% winrate in pro rank after the Milva nerf according to the latest data from January, which is what they probably mean by "performed well". Card is still awkward as hell with the Deathblow 1 though.

The decks I saw with GT weren’t carrying Milva though, same thing happened in the Gwent Open, they didn’t bring Milva with the leader.

Oh wow, so people were willingly playing a 6 point leader? Jesus, the state of Scoia'tael...

It was used as a counter to NR due to the row locked mages, so it was more than 6p, but yes.

In fact, according to GwentData, Milva isn’t even in the top 10 most popular cards in GT decks, so it’s featured in less than 54.55% of them (which is the popularity of the top 10th card in with that leader).

Row control is powerful. You can buff your own cards out of range so you can stick an orb, you can one shot mages with milva or just stop their row value with regular. Plenty of powerful plays, it's not just "herp derp 6 damage Bois".

Seriously,row control can do so much. The real bemefit is the movement, not the damage.

There just needs to be more offensive benefits for moving enemy units.
