I just bought a bunch of Scoiyail(spelled wrong) from a merchant but it isn't showing up anywhere in my deck. It isn't bad enough that I've bought so many cards , some duplicates) and I'm still 2 cards short of a unit but I buy a bunch ( about 10 cards all told off this merchant that seems to love Gwent but they don't show that I've purchased them when I look at my deck. can anyone help me out here please? thank you

From the way you describe the merchant ("loves Gwent"), and the fact that he sells many cards, I can only assume you mean the elf at the circus area north and west of Carsten, and west of the Vegelbud Residence. If this is the case, then you are talking about DLC content, and he only sells one Scoia'tael, Schirru. The other cards he sells are two leader cards, so they don't actually go into your deck, and two other DLC cards: Gaunter O'Dimm 2 & 3.

I think you are right about who it is and the location but he actually had 4 cards that said Scola'tael on them but none showed up and 1 I remember said te N country. ( sorry it's getting late and my brain isn't working for names. but there was a total of 8 to 10 cards I purchased. 3 of them I remember said I already owned them but at least that explained why they are nort showing up. I just want to get the last 2 cards I need so I can play against someone :(

Ok, I just reloaded a prior save, and he does have quite a few more cards than I remembered, sixteen to be precise. These are the cards he sells, with appropriate linked images:

Emhyr var Emreis (Invader of the North): Nilfgaard, Leader
Foltest (Son of Medell): Northern Realms, Leader

Commander's Horn: Neutral
Gaunter O'Dimm (Darkness) x2: Neutral

Havekar Healer: Scoia'tael
Mahakaman Defender Scoia'tael
Mahakaman Defender Scoia'tael
Mahakaman Defender Scoia'tael
Dol Blathanna Archer Scoia'tael
Dol Blathanna Scout Scoia'tael
Barclay Els Scoia'tael
Havekar Smuggler Scoia'tael
Vrihedd Brigade Veteran Scoia'tael

Catapult: Northern Realms

Siege Technician: Nilfgaard

Needs to be won by playing the merchant: Schirru: Scoia'tael

problem is I purchased them all and they aren't showing up in my deck. basically I'm buying EVERY card I can trying to make a deck that will let me play. thus far I'm missing 2 cards ( have been forever) to be able to play :(

You're not making any sense. First you say you purchased them all and they "aren't showing up", then you say you are only missing 2 cards. So which is it? Which cards are not showing up? You have the list above, so name them.

The 2 cards I was missing are the ones they said I need to play. I'm not sure what the term was but it stopped me and all I needed to do was what olnorton just said I found my cards and now I have enough to play 2 different decks? my terminology isn't write for the game but it is really late and to write it correctly I'd have to go back into the game and I have to take my mate to work at 6am and it's 3:20 am now ouch no sleep tonight this game is addictive You are right Olnorton, I didn't realize this. Now I can finally play. Thank you ever so much :D
