“Area of Effect.”


In numerous CCGs, AoE refers to abilities that target multiple cards, either randomly or in a specific manner. There are two varieties of AoE cards in Gwent. The first directly affects multiple units, either allies or enemies, such as Manticore Venom or Golden Froth.

The second AoE variety to be found in Gwent is called a row effect.
