Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 0
Gwent: The Witcher Card Game leans harder on execution: No timing involved; purely strategic card placement
Reads8 vs 5
Gwent: The Witcher Card Game leans harder on reads: Two-out-of-three rounds create meta-game bluffing and baiting
Variance5 vs 4
Gwent: The Witcher Card Game leans harder on variance: Card draws and hidden hand matter but deck is known
Optimization8 vs 7
Gwent: The Witcher Card Game leans harder on optimization: Row control and point denial strategies are analytically solvable
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
