History YMMV / CardHunter

* ThatOneLevel: The 3rd and last part of Lord Stafford's Treasure. You have to deal with a [[StoneWall tough]] Mercenary mook and an armored guard dog. Lord Stafford himself will be using a card that allows his allies to draw an extra card whenever he plays it. But the real problem is that it's a Victory zone style map, Lord Stafford starts by standing in said zone, accumulating points, and its an ''absolute'' slog to get into the Victory zones due to barricades (you can only take 1 step at a time due to difficult terrain, unless you have Free Move). And once you get up close and personal with the frail old man himself (described as having liver-spotted hands)... you find out that he can deal a good amount of damage. Timing is critical in this mission, and losing a party member might give him that last 2 points to win the game.

** All of the variants of Geomancers are annoying, but Practiced Geomancers in particular can be an absoloute nightmare if you don't have Hover. Spamming damaging ground tiles all over the place is bad enough, but they are always prone to throwing you back in them with Telekinesis if you leave, and can also use Bloom Ground, which duplicates damaging tiles to adjacent squares. Finally, due to the nature of Rock Fall, they are capable of hitting you around corners, which they do at every opportunity. If they aren't dealt with ASAP, it is rather common to see the vast majority of the entire board filled with floor hazards.
* GameBreaker: The devs are pretty quick to patch them out as they appear, but for a while, any strategy based around Whirlwind Enemies (which teleported all enemies to random locations) was nearly unstoppable in multiplayer, since if you based all your equipment around it you could just cast it over and over and your opponents would generally not be able to get into a position where they could do anything. It was eventually nerfed to only move people two spaces.

** Resistant Hide is one thing that can make your Wizards feel impotent. It blocks 2 damage 66% of the time, but more importantly, grants complete immunity to Acid, Fire, Lightning and Poison damages. On the other side of the coin, it is also available for your Wizard, so if you are facing elemental spellcaster enemies and managed to get it, it's a GameBreaker.

* ThatOneDisadvantage: There are many Handicap cards, which range from mildly annoying to absolutely disruptive. Special mentions go to Defensiveness (66% chance to fail spellcasting whenever there's enemy within 3 squares), Loner (take 2 unpreventable damage for each character, both ally and enemy, within 2 squares), Superstitious (discard your hand whenever any character, friend or foe, dies) and Dropped Guard (discard all armor and blocking cards).

** Trog Gougers. They only appear in two level 7 adventures, but you will hate them. They wield spears, meaning chances are they will poke your characters at a distance while you have to close the gap using a Move card; and if you do, they will simply run away and poke you again. But most annoyingly is their Crude Plate armor card that triggers 66% of the time, blocks 4 damage, and pushes them backwards by one space, allowing them to poke you yet again. The weakness of the the Armor is that it does not protect against attacks from behind, but given the mechanics, completely flanking the enemy is not always feasible.

** A major offender are creatures with Armor cards that grant complete immunity against a certain type of attack or elements. For instance, [[Dembones Skeletons]] are immune to Slashing and Piercing damages, while [[BlobMonster Oozes]] are immune to Crushing damages.
