Astral Heroes vs Magic Duels: Origins
Astral Heroes
Astral Heroes is a digital card game that will most certainly make heads turn due to their bold innovations to the CCG genre along with some excellent game balance and card designs. With a plethora of unique features that somewhat turns the collectible cards genre over on its head, you’ll be able to experience a more in-depth card play. Although the game is a free-to-play, it is fairer than most digital card games out there as well due to its lack of “special” cards.Unfortunately, the game walled off its amazing PvE campaign by forcing players to attain a certain rank in PvP - a move which has turned away a lot of players who only wanted to enjoy the amazing gameplay and not compete with other players.
That said, if you’re tired of playing digital card games that are mere Hearthstone clones, Astral Heroes will definitely be able to make you fall into love with the CCG genre all over again. Try it now!
Magic Duels: Origins
Magic Duels: Origins is another MMOTCG developed by the same people behind Magic: The Gathering Online. However, this game aims bigger - there are more cards - with over 1300 of them - and has a better crafted and in-depth strategy element to it. Play as the iconic Planeswalker as you experience the new story-driven Amonkhet campaign via its Story Mode, or you can play cooperatively with up to 4 of your friends to take down a Two-Headed Giant. Of course, like most card games, there is also a competitive multiplayer mode where you can test your mettle against players from all around the world, but before you dive into the competitive scene, you might want to hone your skills with its vs-AI mode first.However, like most Magic: The Gathering-based games, the game scene can be rather tough for newcomers to break into due to its higher skill ceiling. As a result, the game became more of niche game for fans of the franchise rather than blowing up on the online gaming scene like Hearthstone did. That is not to say that Hearthstone is any easier to play though - it is simply more accessible to new players.
That said, if you're a fan of Magic: The Gathering, you'll want to play this game. To many, it is definitely way better than Magic Online.
