Should Triss' gwent card not be ranged instead of melee? :D

[Wicked Mouse]

I know it's nitpicking, but I cannot help to think that all mages I come across in gwent are ranged (Yennefer of Vengerberg, Assir var Anahid, Sabrina Glevissig, Dethmold, Keira Metz, etc.) except Triss.

I've read somewhere that she was supposed to have scorch ability like Villenthretenmert, but it was removed for some reason. I may be wrong though.

It wouldn't matter where she is at all since she's a hero card. It sort of makes sense though. Out of all those other mages, she seems the most offensive in her abilities. During the Battle at Kaer Morhen, Triss is assigned to provide heavy fire while Yen is assigned with shielding the fort Maybe that would make her more viable for close combat?

Btw it's not melee. The three rows symbolize close combat, mid-range, and long range. The sword is just a symbol.

Alright, so she should be considered a short-ranged mage? Never casting longer distanced spells?

I know that because she's a hero card it doesn't matter all that much, but still I felt she should be ranged, since all her colleagues from the Lodge are.

Well she does cast long range spells. We see during The Battle at Kaer Morhenthat she's capable of launching her flame balls pretty far. If anything, any mage should be capable of performing at all ranges. Triss just seems like she would be the most capable of them at shorter distances.

Gwent doesn't have to make sense to be incredibly fun.

Not a very good card either. Yennefer beats her again.

Yen wins outside of gwent too.

I think it's just a lil more weird how no one is asking why they ended up in a gwent deck in the first place.. "Oh, never mind, Mr. Doppler, I already know what Ciri looks like these days, see she's on a 4UCKING gwent card I have!"

Djikstra, you are a ♥♥♥♥ spy btw. How is it you and thaler get away with all your sneaking around when it's so well known you 2 are spies that you were included in a card game as such?

Ah never mind.. I guess it's one of those "So do the mom & dad know Stewie is talking right infront of them, or?"

I have to imagine though that Geralt gets a kick out of drawing his own card.
