Aether Duel

Aether Duel is a compact strategy card battler where every lane is a threat, every card can change the board, and every turn asks for a clean read.

Build a 60-card deck around pressure, traps, and timing, then take it into fast duels against the AI or another player through Game Center. The battlefield is small by design - just 3x2 lanes per side - so positioning, tempo, and sequencing matter immediately.

Summon combatants to hold the line. Cast spells to crack open a turn. Equip your best threat before it strikes. Set hidden sigils and dare your opponent to trigger them.

Your deck can burn enemies over time, drench attackers before they hit back, freeze the strongest threat, return a monster to hand, steal a key piece of equipment, recover cards from the discard, or ready an ally for a second attack. The best turns are not about playing everything. They are about playing the right thing, in the right lane, before the opponent sees the trap.

What you can expect:
- Fast tactical duels against the built-in AI or real players through Game Center
- A custom deck builder built for quick iteration
- A focused 3x2 board with front-line pressure and protected back lanes
- Spells, equipment, hidden sigils, and combatant abilities that create swing turns
- Speed-based strike order, counterattacks, Guard, Burning, Drenched, and Frozen
- Rich fantasy card art with animated tabletop combat

Aether Duel rewards careful sequencing, clever bluffs, and small advantages that become decisive. Read the board, set the trap, and bend the aether before your core falls.
