アドレナリン

The faction asymmetry is what sold me, each side genuinely plays differently instead of just reskinned armies. Our group argued about the arena draft rules for twenty minutes before we even started, which is a good sign in my book. Already planning a rematch this weekend.

Played our first three-player game last night and the arena combat had everyone leaning over the table. Turns move fast once you learn the virtual combat cards, so there's barely any downtime.

The faction asymmetry is what sold me — every side plays differently enough that we kept switching to see how the other one handled the arena. Our first game ran long because nobody wanted to commit troops early, and honestly that tension is the whole point.
