I believe that Gwent is the most well designed cards game that I've ever played. It's actually somewhat balanced, the factions have several diverse all viable playstyles, and every match is different, which is absloutly bizzare in a cards game because usually meta controls matches, There are very few useless cards as well. All that aside, the game's structure is brilliant, just the fact that there are no aggro strategy (which is a fun killer) proves my point, but there is also the 10 cards starting hand, every card is precious, and finally the game actually gives you a chance to make your moves, even if you overwhelmingly lose the first round, there are still 2 rounds to go, just so much thought in the game itself.
