From my experience combines the visuals of hearthstone with better magic-like gameplay. Has a legitimate single-player campaign to get you into the game, I was able to pick up all the mechanics within a few rounds.
Anyone who plays seriously or just a new influx of worn out hearthstone players for now?
Whats the best value for ramping up your collection early? Reddit says drafting but you need to save up 5000 gold first (I only had about 3K after the campaign and one game and just bought packs, maybe you shouldnt do this)
discuss
I've been playing for a week or so.
Def don't buy packs, its horrible value.
Forge is like HS arena, you pick 1 out of 3 cards 25x and then play AI for rewards. It seems amazing value at least for the first few times you rank up, especially because you KEEP ALL THE CARDS YOU PICK. So for 2.5k gold you get 25 cards + actual rewards. Apparently AI difficulty keeps going up as you rank up, so eventually its not as good value. However, I'm up to gold rank now and am getting around 2k+ gold and 3-5 packs when leveling up.
Gauntlet seems p solid too, not as good as forge/draft, but still great way to grind rewards. I was having success with a homebrewed red/yellow tokeny deck after campaign.

Yes, there are "quick spells" you can cast, you can react after an opponent attacks. Defender declares blockers. So for example, opponent attacks with a 3/3, you block with a 1/1 and cast a quick spell that gives +3/+3 on your 1/1. Or you can cast torch (3 damage 1 mana, OP) and kill it.
