Good work, I never really played Gwen but now if I do I'll have some good knowledge of how to play her. Thanks for sharing.

Hunter Ability - Attachment 4 When an item you control is destroyed while Survivalist

is attached to your hero, you draw a card.

Survivalist

was changed. This should work as draw any time any item is destroyed (weapons, armor, traps, artifacts)

Whoops it was. Thanks Buqs. Will update the OP when I get time.

EDIT: It's fixed now.

It fits that category better than the Aggro or Control in my opinion because it stalls until it can achieve it's win condition. It's not mill true, but it most certainly is stall.

Well, that's why an explosive start is so important in an allied Gwen. You need a T2,T3,T4 drop to really maintain board. I have also taken to sometimes dropping the weapon on T5 to help out my allies (not buffing usually). Then on T6 drop the Rapid Fire

and it's no tempo loss at all. And if your opp spends the resources wiping your weapon then you've cost them tempo anyway.

Gwen is my favorite hero and I love playing with her because of her unique style.I've played Gwen up to 290 when the ladder first started (i started two days after reset so i missed most of the rush). I think Gwen got a huge boost this update. Play for the board and drop a Pride of the Mountain

t4 and t5 soul seeker and t6 rf and itf. I always had a hand full of cards with this set up and it had it every match due to my deck layout. Fleet footed messenger is a godsend to her. The pusedo drawing he provides helps tons and seductress is amazing too.

I've also made a rush Gwen deck utilizing feathered longbow. The object is to play reverse from the late game Gwen. She not only controls the board better early game because of allies, bow, and lily recycle, but late game you can switch it up and play with soul seeker like a regular Gwen. I find this approach much better because she controls the entire game and catches all opponents off guard. Most of the time they don't know i run soul seeker so they sac their lln.

Bottom line, she has tons of new toys and if you play her like an aggressive banebow, you will catch many opponents of guard.

I LOVE HUNTERS!!!!
