I've played this game for years and I can ofc only talk from my feelings about the AI fairness, but if anything the player seems to start suspiciously often. Also I've never seen any real pattern in what decks AI decides to use against you.

Might be better if the ai didn't always magically play a deck almost exclusively designed to counter yours. Takes forever to gain gold and/or get lucky and get a new card you might be able to use. The gameplay is solid and there is a huge variety of strategies, unfortunately ai "cheats" like deck counters and the fact that it "wins" the coin toss a good 80% of the time (going first is ALWAYS better, unlike some other games that balance this).

The arena 1hp thing isn't a bug. every day the hp of submitted decks decrease, and these decks have been here for years, so they have 1hp. It's a feature, to keep users active, but the game is years old. On the plus side, it's easy to get money now

I have an idea for a new element; Technology. It depicts a switch button. It is related to computers, mobile devices, etc.

@Gamerking : you can upgrade cards after doing the 7 quests. Then, you click on "Quest" and you'll have a button to upgrade your cards (1500 electrum each)

Game seems to be bugged. Creatures which when burrowed say they can't be targeted, and yet they still are able to be targeted with poison AFTER they're burrowed. @Dev: FIX THIS ISSUE PLEASE!!!

How do you upgrade cards? New-ish player here and can't seem to see any way. Also the arena keeps bugging out and gives you instant wins or players with 1hp, free stuff is awesome but this is rather strange.

Love it. But I'd really recommend having in-game music. The only music I hear is the intro music--which is nice--but I'd like to have the option to turn it on during battle. Maybe even a jukebox is a good idea, and I can cycle through various tunes.

@mccool37: That might help some people, but sometimes the server is just down for some reason. I don't have any linked account(s) and last night/this morning there were issues with connectivity.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Some people are saying they were having server issues. I was as well but I figured out the issue on my end so maybe it will help others. If you are making a new account and hit "Link the accounts" on the first screen, it will log you in but won't properly connect to the server and won't save data. Instead, hit "New Account" and link the accounts from there to log in and save properly.

@mogllion Some cards are played on the opponent's side of the field. Using cards on your own side enables you to destroy them. (Note, using the "cancel airborne" effect to enable your monsters to attack your opponents doesn't work. I thought it did, but I was wrong. Must've been another card effect.)

People are saying you can rig the PVP to play against yourself. How? When I went to PVP Duel to "Challenge a Friend," and entered my own screen name, and hit "Go," it just sits there and says, "Waiting for an opponent. So how can you play against yourself so you can get the PVP badge?

It's not a bad game, but I do have to wonder why you can eliminate yourself with your own card effects. Like I get there are costs to using some cards, but once you pick up pace you forget some aspects of the game and click before you think some times, and a quick pop-up that closes if you click another card doesn't help since it appears just as fast as it goes away and then you've lost. Maybe make it so you HAVE to click the message to acknowledge that you might end yourself, instead of it flashing for a split second before I click a card that kills my run and momentum?

No disadvantage for the mixed deck. No summoning sickness (although they have effect/spell delay, strangely). Able to play multiple mana (or quanta, whatever) creating cards on the SAME turn. Inability to target creature w/o special ability or spells (the game's sole wizard-to-wizard approach). Over-reliance on PvP. This game is broken from the get-go. Nice art though. And I do like the simplicity of play: no select-this-card-slot, monster fusion, multi-uber-buff, attack/def start in the hundreds or thousands, etc. No nonsense approach is good.

I don't want to give this game a low score because it's not a genre I play. I simply am not able to figure it out. Pretty though.

Even if a game is one of the best, there should never be a badge that relies on the need for participation with a live opponent (real person) on some other end. High scores: fine; but not badges. The biggest problem is that it may become literally impossible to achieve if it ever gets to the point that there are too few people ever on at once, or even none at all.

Good, addictive game similar to Magic, but the rules are easier. The only con? Turning off the music doesn't work and you have to mute the browser tab. Please fix that problem! Thanks. Otherwise, 5/5

I finally realized my parents favored my twin brother. It hit me when they asked me to blow up balloons for his surprise birthday party.

Even when everything goes wrong for my mono aether deck I still have fun. I.E. Not pulling enough resource to fire off aether dragons at 14 a pop.

for over a decade now this game on this site has been at the top of my bookmarks, i don't know what it is about this game that makes me keep coming back to it but it's got it, maybe cuz it's just a simple game w/ a lot of depth or maybe nostalgia idk, but this game holds a special place in my heart

I do believe this is now more applicable than ever. Probably even best for Gold farming.

I don't get this game...can minions not attack minions? Ik this comment get a lotta hate but I feel like this game sucks in terms of explanation and skill vs just getting lucky each turn (like starting with a bunch of pillars instead of finally pulling one on your 5th turn). I can't even get past 36 points which means I probably suck but I just don't see any way I can win given my cards and rate of gold earned
