http://www.gwentdb.com/ and http://gwentify.com/ are what you're looking for.

Thanks mate. Found Qwentify pretty rapidly. It would have been great if there was an app that loaded your collection up there though. CBA putting it all in :P

Yeah I never bothered putting my collection on it but have used it to build decks. Decks which are all useless now since it's practically a different game after the patch yesterday I might add

Heh heh. When I played a few months back, I just couldn't get into it. Last night was fun. Managed to win 2/4 games online, did some single player etc. Quite enjoyed it. That may have had something to do with getting a few beers into me after finishing on-call for the last three weeks :P

Is it the full game now or just open beta?

Seems to be full games. Single player mode is 6 games per faction, for coins and leaders. Few other quests

I started with Skellige [hated it in Witcher3, loved the spy-nilf setup that you just draw loads and loads :P], but Skelige was quoted as the easiest to start with.
Took a bit of adjustment from Magic:Duels & Heartstone, but got the hang of it easy enough. I managed to win 3/5 i think it was with a basic non adjusted deck.

The one thing that was annoying was the amount of keyword, and them not being explained anywhere. Found a post on reddit with a list, but it wasnt complete.

Keywords are explained if you hover over a card. I'm enjoying it so far. Playing a totally different play style from the close beta, trying a Armoured Northern Realms and Reveal Nilfgaard this time round.

Only bummer is they have really nerfed the Gold Card drop chance from kegs. I opened my first 100 kegs and only got 2 golds and apparently other players on Reddit are having similar experiences. Whereas silver drops seems to be the same/often as closed beta.

Nice video here with an explanation of the game mechanics but at about 3 mins into the video it shows a chapter of the true singleplayer campaign that will release later this year, it looks amazing and the first installment is free!
