The game is ok. I've played 13 hrs and played against 4 unique players. Since so few play the only people you will play against have big collections. It seems everyone that is "high rated" plays agro and it doesn't look like there's any good answers to it. Agro goes wide but there are only single target removal spells which are also conditional for the most part. When cards are played they go to the rest zone. You later assign them attacking or blocking. At first its cute that you have to predict your opponents moves when you want to remove something or prevent your thing from getting killed. I found that it mostly boils down to why would I take a chance at removing their creature and instead always be the player putting down threats while they whiff removal sometimes due to the clunkyness. There are very few board wipes, most of which are expensive resource-wise while also mostly having the same battlefield only condition (one even shows your opponent you have it in hand). So you take a turn off to board wipe while they freely draw cards and set up the next threat. Tldr: I don't like the gimmick in this TCG, the game feels unbalanced, and no one plays it.

Reminds me of other card games but better, like every card game there is some questionable matchups pitting you against very powerful decks that might counter yours about 90% of the time. other than playing the top 3 players every game, the game is fun to grind the campaign and build ddecks that probably wont help you in ranked, but SAVE UR DUST AND BUY THE CARDDS ALL THE TOP PLAYERS HAVE. this is the state of the game currently in the time i have wrote this review. :)

Looks like a good game but the queues are very long for PVP

I think this game is pretty fun, I did get the DLC and starter pack, but it's very friendly to F2P players as I was able to complete my collection in about a month and a half. A good part of why I enjoy it is that it's a lot simpler compared to other card games like Yu-Gi-Oh (I never played, but I've seen a little bit and it's overwhelming), at the same time there's a good amount of plays and variation you are able to make/control which creates a good amount of complexity in the game interactions so there's some depth of strategy.

I've only played a few hours (which is nothing in a TCG) but it seems like a great game! Really breathes fresh air into the TCG genre with new and semi new mechanics. The concurrent turns inspired by marvel snap fixes TCGs biggest problems with the first player having a major advantage. The prediction mechanic is really fun. You feel like a real wizard when your guess is right. All the factions are diverse and interesting and the banner system helps keep things fresh. What's up with almost no three banner cards though? Starting on 3 mana and keeping all draw mana dependant fixes the problem with early turns being dead for everyone except aggro. There will always be a tactical decision every turn between building card advantage and board advantage. I happened upon a nasty bug regarding buying card packs, but I was helped in mere hours and when it happened again I was helped almost immediately. (Edit: it was patched within 24 h.) The free to play mechanics seems really generous with a free pack every day just for signing in. I've got some QoL/UI things that are itching me, but nothing that seems hard to fix. The deck building layout is quite bad. Having to click every card in the d…

While this game still needs some work around the edges its a fun card game and I believe the developers are competent enough to keep this game going in a good direction. I am really looking forward to how this game grows with time. You should really give this game a try!
