Mastering the Game with Letho of Gulet in Gwent

Gwent game screenshot with Letho's card and details

Posted on 2023-07-17

Gwent: The Witcher Card Game, being an online digital collectible card game, has offered a remarkable range of characters, each with their unique abilities. A character from the Nilfgaardian faction that has created ripples in the gameplay is the infamous Letho of Gulet. Letho, a Witcher from the School of the Viper, is a powerful and tricky card that can bring significant changes to the gameplay when used correctly.

The Art of Letho of Gulet in Gwent

Letho is essentially an 8-point unit card that belongs to the Nilfgaardian Empire faction. He is a Gold card, which means that he cannot be targeted by many types of control cards. This Witcher is no ordinary card, as he comes with a unique ability:

Deploy: Banish a unit from your opponent’s graveyard;
Deathwish: If Letho is destroyed, he banishes a card from your graveyard.

With such unique abilities, Letho not only shakes the opponent’s graveyard but also challenges the player to plan strategically to maximize his use.

Letho in Gameplay: Tactics and Strategies

Letho of Gulet’s strength lies in his ability to disrupt the opponent’s gameplay by banishing a card from their graveyard. This ability is particularly potent against decks that rely heavily on the graveyard for their strategies. Letho can single-handedly change the tide of the game by denying the opponent key cards they were planning to resurrect or reuse.

Here are some crucial strategic points to remember while playing with Letho of Gulet:

Timing is everything: Knowing when to play Letho can make all the difference. Optimal use often involves waiting until the opponent has played a card they would likely want to resurrect later;
Use with other cards: Some cards, such as ‘Assire var Anahid’, can return cards from the graveyard;
They can be used to return Letho to your deck, allowing you to use his powerful ability more than once;
Letho’s deathwish: Be cautious of Letho’s deathwish ability. If he’s destroyed, he will banish a card from your graveyard, which can disrupt your strategies if not planned accordingly.

Utilizing Letho of Gulet in Decks

Understanding the full potential of Letho requires a thorough knowledge of deck-building strategies. His abilities can greatly benefit decks focusing on graveyard disruption or removal. Here are some examples:

Nilfgaard Mill Decks: In these decks, Letho can provide additional milling, disrupting the opponent’s game plan;
Control Decks: Control decks that focus on denying the opponent’s resources can greatly benefit from Letho’s ability to remove key cards from the game permanently;
Decks with graveyard interactions: Decks that bring back cards from the graveyard can strategically use Letho’s deathwish to banish less useful cards, ensuring the availability of key cards for later rounds.

With his unique ability and game-changing potential, Letho of Gulet is indeed a game-changer in Gwent. As an integral part of a well-constructed deck, he can completely disrupt opponents’ strategies, providing a significant advantage for the player using him. However, it’s crucial to remember that like all powerful cards, Letho requires strategic planning and skillful use to fully exploit his potential. This Witcher from the School of the Viper undoubtedly brings an exciting and challenging aspect to the world of Gwent: The Witcher Card Game.

Letho of Gulet is a Legendary card, which makes it one of the most powerful and rare cards in the game.

Yes, Letho of Gulet can banish any unit card, regardless of its strength or abilities.

Upon destruction, Letho’s deathwish activates, and he banishes a card from your graveyard.

Yes, with careful play and the use of cards like ‘Assire var Anahid’, it is possible to use Letho’s ability more than once in a game.

Gwent: The Witcher Card Game, being an online digital collectible card game, has offered a remarkable range of characters, each with their unique abilities. A character from the Nilfgaardian faction that has created ripples in the gameplay is the infamous Letho of Gulet. Letho, a Witcher from the School of the Viper, is a powerful…

The best Witcher 3 Gwent Cards, Hero Cards and where to find them

If you're going to play Gwent here's where to get the best cards

The best Witcher 3 Gwent cards and hero cards give you a huge advantange in the in-game game. And knowing where to find them and get them all is a big deal if you're trying to play some pro level Gwent. There are over 100 unique cards to collect and you'll need some top level options if you enter the tougher Gwent matches in The Witcher 3 . Hero Cards, on the other hand, give you unique abilities that turn a game around with a single card.

Basically if you're playing Gwent in The Witcher 3 then you need to find these cards and this guide will help you. Not only will it point you to where you can you find the best cards, but it will also outline Hero Cards, what they do and what are worth having in your deck.

Why The Witcher 3 Gwent Hero Cards are so Strong

The Witcher 3 Gwent Hero Cards are one-of-a-kind cards that have special abilities that can offer a large amount of strength, and aren't affected by any Special Cards, Weather Cards, or abilities. So if your opponent plays a Weather Card, the strength of your Hero Cards on the battlefield won't be lowered. There's a flip side to this though where if you use a Commander’s Horn to boost the strength of your units, any of your Hero Cards on the battlefield will not have their strength doubled.

It merans it's important to use them wisely, such as when you think your opponent may use one of their Special Cards, and not just playing a Hero Card as soon as you draw it. Similarly, you want to make good use of any of the abilities on your cards. For example, Ermion’s special ability “triggers the transformation of all Berserker Cards on the same row.” So, it wouldn’t be much use to play Ermion when you don’t have any Berserker Cards or if your Berserker Cards are split across multiple rows.

These cards can vastly change how a round plays out. They can force your opponent to skip, allow you to claw your way back from a bad first round, or lull your opponent into a false sense of security, surprising them with a powerful card at the end of a round.

Where to find Witcher 3 Hero Cards and the abilities they have

The elder scrolls 4 oblivion: best quest in each city, fortnite players aren’t happy with chapter 5 season 3’s vehicles.

Playing Gwent in The Witcher 3 is ridiculously addictive, but there's one drawback for people who haven't read the books or played the earlier games: a lot of famous characters , especially those featured on hero cards, aren't really explained at all. Arguably, it's just a bit more fun to trounce that one innkeeper at Gwent when familiar with the character card that cements the win.

So for those players who love using their Northern Realms deck but have no idea who Esterad Thyssen actually is, here's a handy guide to each and every one of the characters featured on Gwent hero cards (minus a couple of non-specific monsters and Geralt of Rivia himself). From Saesenthessis to Tibor Eggebracht, there are some big names from all across the Witcher franchise to cover.

Cerys an Craite

Fortunately, players have the pleasure of meeting Cerys (or, depending on choices during the game, Queen Cerys) in The Witcher 3 's main campaign. Cerys an Craite is the "Sparrowhawk" of Skellige, daughter of a powerful Jarl and a great warrior in her own right. She's stubborn and confident, but also level-headed and clever; all qualities that make her an excellent leader.

Cerys's Gwent card is a strong 10 and can summon shield maiden cards to the board when played.

Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon

Does Ciri need too much explanation? She's got such a rich history in the Witcher universe, and she's really the secret main character of The Witcher 3 . As Geralt and Yennefer's adoptive daughter, Ciri has powerful magic and combat skills at her disposal, as reflected in her Gwent card: Ciri and Geralt's both boast a power rating of 15, the strongest cards in the game.

Eithne the Silver-Eyed is the queen of the dryads and the ruler of Brokilon; although she's present in many of the Witcher novels, she has exactly zero appearances in any of the three Witcher RPGs from CD Projekt Red.

In the books, Eithne is known for two things: her remarkable wisdom, and her unbending hatred of humans. The only people dryads regularly allow to set foot in Brokilon are elves (hence Eithne's presence in the Scoia'tael deck), and they're a mostly reclusive people, drawing strength from the primal energy of the forest around them. Brokilon itself is just as magical as the dryads, and one tale says that dryads can see the future in the waters of the forest, hence how difficult is to surprise them.

In her Gwent card, Eithne's skills as a master archer make her part of the 'ranged' card category.

Those who watched the recent Netflix Witcher show might be surprised to know that the character Mousesack has another name: Ermion. Similarly, those who have played The Witcher 3 may not know that these two characters are actually one and the same.

Ermion is a powerful druid, formerly an advisor to Queen Calanthe of Cintra before her demise and caretaker of Ciri; at the time of The Witcher 3 , he's the advisor and friend of Skellige's king, Bran Tuirseach. Ermion and Geralt are also longtime friends since childhood, and when both later ended up at a duplicitous witcher tournament actually designed to eradicate the school of the wolf witchers , Ermion helped Geralt to escape with his life. He was also present during the fall of Cintra, though he managed to escape it.

The Witcher 3 hints at Ermion's long history with Geralt and Ciri, but it's never fully explained. Suffice to say, he's been around since the very beginning of the Witcher stories.

Esterad Thyssen

Esterad Thyssen was the king of Kovir and Poviss during the second war with Nilfgaard, and present in some way through many of the Witcher novels. Unfortunately, Esterad is killed before the events of the games can begin, though he's mentioned in The Witcher 2 ; when ambushed by assassins outside of his palace, Esterad chose to stay and fight for his wife's sake even though he could have saved himself by waiting for the guards. In the end, Queen Zuleyka survived without a scratch, but Esterad was mortally wounded.

Hjalmar an Craite

Hjalmar is the hot-headed brother of Cerys, son of Jarl Crach an Craite. He's another contender for the throne of Skellige in The Witcher 3 (and it's Geralt's decision who takes the crown) so players don't have to worry about not knowing his name when it pops up in Gwent. He falls under the ranged category, with a power level of 10 just like his sister.

Imlerith shouldn't be too hard for Witcher 3 players to figure out either, since that game is his only mention or appearance in the entirety of the available Witcher media out there. Sure, the Wild Hunt comes up in other places, but Imlerith himself is a CD Projekt Red addition who serves as one of the main bosses of The Witcher 3 as one of Eredin's generals. He's a close-quarters combatant with a score of 10 in Gwent, playing for the monster deck.

Iorveth has limited appearances in one of the Witcher books, and his only physical in-game appearance is in The Witcher 2 . Thus, anyone who skipped to Wild Hunt may not know him: Iorveth is a factor in one of The Witcher 2 's biggest choices , and siding with Iorveth radically changes the players' experience compared to a playthrough siding with Vernon Roche instead.

Iorveth himself is an Aen Seidhe elf and the commander of a Scoia'tael commando unit skilled in guerilla warfare; Iorveth's soldiers were fiercely loyal to him and he was a cunning commander, though outside of his unit, Iorveth was seen as a terrorist.

Isengrim Faoiltiarna

As it turns out, Geralt isn't the only "wolf" in The Witcher universe. Isengrim Faoiltiarna is only mentioned in the CD Projekt Red games, but he appears in a couple of Witcher novels as one of the most experienced members of the Scoia'tael, earning himself a moniker: the Iron Wolf.

When the second Nilfgaard ended, Isengrim and 31 other elven commanders who fought with Nilfgaard were surrendered to the Northern Realms for execution as part of the truce, but Isengrim himself managed to escape alone. By the time The Witcher 3 rolls around, Isengrim's whereabouts are unknown, though his reputation remains.

John Natalis

On the flip-side, John Natalis was a commander for Temeria, one of the Northern Realms. He shows up in one of the Witcher books and The Witcher 2 , even temporarily serving as the regent of Temeria after King Foltest's assassination. According to Vernon Roche, sometime in between The Witcher 2 and 3 , Natalis's forces were thoroughly defeated when Temeria fell, so his current whereabouts (or whether he's alive) are unknown.

RELATED: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's Mutations Explained

Letho of Gulet

Letho of Gulet, the Kingslayer, is a witcher from the School of the Viper. He's another games-only character, having been introduced as the assassin of King Foltest in The Witcher 2 (for which Geralt is framed) and potentially as an ally in an optional The Witcher 3 quest if Geralt decides to spare his life. As for why Letho agreed to kill kings instead of monsters, that answer lies with the offer Emperor Emhyr var Emries made him: in exchange for sowing chaos in the north, the emperor promised to rebuild Letho's witcher school--a promise that he never made good on.

Menno Coehoorn

Menno Coehoorn was a field marshal in the Nilfgaardian army and confidant of Emhyr var Emries, enough so that he was granted temporary governorship over Cintra. While not in the games, Coehoorn is present throughout several books as a dedicated servant of the Nilfgaardian Empire , though he eventually met his end. Confronted with the remnants of Zoltan Chevay's company, he was shot with three crossbow bolts and fell into the Chotla River, though his body was never found.

Morvran Voorhis

When Imperator Morvran Voorhis comes to interrogate Geralt at the beginning of The Witcher 3 , that's not actually his first moments as part of the franchise: he's also in a couple of the books, always portrayed as a true Nilfgaardian and relative to Emperor Emhyr. Knowing that, his presence in Wild Hunt isn't surprising since Emhyr himself is a villain of sorts in the game . During the Third Northern War, he was Nilfgaard's most important general. As a pure-blooded aristocrat with clear ties to Emhyr, Morvran's claim to the throne of Nilfgaard was always solid, and it's been confirmed that he ascended to the throne around the end of the 13th century.

Mysterious Elf / Avallac'h

While his card is presented as "Mysterious Elf," it's presumably so that Avallac'h's presence in the game won't be discovered until the big unveiling moment when Uma's curse is lifted. Regardless, the mysterious elf is most definitely Avallac'h. Before his role in The Witcher 3 began, Geralt had met the elven sage years earlier, and found him to be unnervingly interested in the Elder Blood, and thus in Ciri. Though Geralt never trusted Avallac'h's motivations where Ciri was concerned, he became her tutor over the years, attempting to teach her how to control her powers. Then, when the Wild Hunt began its search, he protected Ciri from them.

Philippa Eilhart

Philippa Eilhart is a cunning and ambitious sorceress, formerly an advisor to King Vizimir of Redania until his death (for which she's probably responsible), who led a coup on the Brotherhood of Sorcerers to try and weed out traitors loyal to Nilfgaard. Upon destroying the Brotherhood, Philippa became the founder of the Lodge of Sorceresses , and thus its leader. By The Witcher 3 , Radovid of Redania has blinded Philippa by ordering her eyes removed, and she's searching for a way to restore them--along with her position of power in the world.

Saesenthessis

Otherwise known by the people of the Continent as Saskia the Dragonslayer, Saesenthessis was a dragon with the power to take on a human form, and in doing so she became a war hero. In the books, Saesenthessis' birth is only possible because of Geralt's intervention during the famous Hunt for the Dragon; he helped Saesenthessis' father, a golden dragon who called himself Borch in human form, stop hunters from killing the hatchling dragon as they killed her mother. Those who watched the Netflix show will remember this moment too, from episode 6 .

In The Witcher 2 , Saskia ends up being manipulated by the sorceresses Philippa Eilhart and Sile de Tansarville, which Geralt can choose to put a stop to. If successful, Saskia survives the Third War and escapes Vergen, hale and whole.

Tibor Eggebracht

Tibor Eggebracht was a Nilfgaardian colonel of great esteem, who commanded the Alba armored division before Morvran Voorhis took over. However, Tibor only makes an appearance in one Witcher book, during which his cavalry division was wiped out during the Battle of Brenna and he himself was killed.

Triss Merigold

Triss Merigold, the Fourteenth of the Hill, is one of the most powerful sorceresses on the Continent. Friend to both Geralt and Yennefer and a big sister-figure to Ciri, Triss obviously plays an important role throughout all of the Witcher books and games. For Wild Hunt 's purposes, Triss had previously been Geralt's primary love interest, though now can romance either her or Yennefer . Regardless of romantic entanglements, Triss remains a loyal friend to all and joins the fight against the Wild Hunt.

Vernon Roche

Vernon Roche makes his debut in the games, beginning with The Witcher 2 . He's the commander of the Blue Stripes, an elite Temerian force, and his is the other major path in addition to Iorveth's that determines the course of the game. Whether or not his path is taken, Roche and Geralt meet again as friends in The Witcher 3 , though Roche is now displaced as a guerilla fighter resisting Nilfgaardian rule.

Yennefer of Vengerberg

Finally, there's Yennefer of Vengerberg. Arguably Geralt's true love and mother to Ciri, Yennefer's history is nearly as long and complex as that of the witcher, and she's easily another of the Continent's most powerful sorceresses. Though Yennefer doesn't appear in the first two games, her absence is still mentioned (and felt). Wild Hunt may be Yennefer's first in-game appearance, but she's been tightly bound to the fates of Geralt and Ciri since the beginning.

When considering The Witcher in all of its novels and video games, catching up and learning about that world may seem like a dizzying task. Nonetheless, it's entirely possible to enjoy Wild Hunt on its own, provided just a bit of background information for maximum effect.

The Witcher 3 is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

Letho is a Character/NPC in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Known as Letho of Gulet or his more infamous moniker, the Kingslayer , he is a Witcher of the School of the Viper, and an associate of Geralt. In the prequel, he is the main antagonist.

Some friends you see after many years apart and you immediately develop a headache. Not out of antipathy, but as a somatic premonition of the hangover sure to follow your drunken reunion. Seeing others, however, gives you an itching pain in your back and a desire to reach for your blade. For Geralt, Letho of Gulet had a foot in both of these camps. This renegade witcher of the school of the Viper had the blood of at least two Nordling kings on his hands, the fruit of his cooperation with Nilfgaard's emperor, Emhyr var Emreis. Accused of these crimes, Geralt was forced to chase down Letho to clear his own name. Though both walked away from their final confrontation in the ruins of Loc Nuinne alive and unharmed, Geralt did not think he would ever see Letho again. It thus came as quite a shock when he happened across Letho in a barn loft somewhere in the war-ravaged Temerian borderlands. It turned out Letho's former employer was less than satisfied with his performance and had set a variety of blood hounds on his trail. In these circumstances, the presence of another witcher to guard his back was more than welcome. Geralt remembered the care Letho had given Yennefer and, in a show of solidarity, decided to help his former companion deal with his pursuers.

If Geralt kills Letho's pursuers:

In order to shake the hounds off his trail, Letho had decided on a risky maneuver — faking his own death. His plan would have worked perfectly, too, had Geralt's hero reflexes not been a tad overstrung, causing him to butcher any and all witnesses who might have spread the news.

If Geralt goes along with Letho's plan:

In order to shake the hounds off his trail, Letho had decided on a risky maneuver — faking his own death. Although Geralt had no forewarning of this, he improvised with aplomb and sent Letho's pursuers off convinced they had rid the world of a kingslayer. After that, there was nothing more for Letho to do but disappear. Geralt proposed he hide out at Kaer Morhen for a while, and after a bit of thought Letho agreed.

Letho Information

The choices done in The Witcher 2 will affect what happens in Witcher 3, therefore, in order for Letho to appear in the game, he must be spared in the second game, or when prompted in the quest Imperial Audience, Geralt must choose the answer that Letho lives, else the game will simulate that Geralt had killed Letho.

Kaer Morhen (if Geralt convinces him to go there)

Originally a witcher of the School of the Viper, Geralt rescued him whilst chasing the Wild Hunt. Letho then helped accompany Geralt in his attempt to find the Hunt and Yennefer.

He then reappears in the prequel, The Witcher 2, as the main antagonist of the game; hired by the Nilfgaardian Empire to destabilize the Northern Kingdoms, he worked with the Scoia'tael and some members of the Lodge of Sorceresses to destabilize the region for a Nilfgaardian invasion of the North. He killed Demavend, the King of Aedirn and Sovereign of the Pontar Valley; and Foltest, King of Temeria, whilst Foltest being accompanied by Geralt.

Regardless of who Geralt helps, Letho will reappear in the finale of the game, where Geralt can ask him everything he missed out, and will be faced with 2 choices: kill Letho or let him go free.
