Faeria vs Magic: The Gathering Online
Faeria
Faeria is an MMOCCG that brilliantly blends the elements of traditional board games with turn-based tactical and strategic MMOs, set in a disc-world circled by Orobouros, the very first creature, albeit a serpent-like one, that the gods apparently have created. In this game, you will play against other champions or players on a unique, hexagonally-gridded battlefield where the different landscapes play an important role in determining your attack or defense strategy. There are a ton of collectible cards for you to collect and subsequently use to build a deck to bring to battle.Best yet, the game is incredibly easy to learn unlike a lot of the traditional MMOCCG/TCGs, even for players who are new to the genre, and most matches are fast-paced enough to be amazingly engaging, leaving you wanting to dive immediately into another match.
Due to the popularity of games like Hearthstone, similar games have been sprouting all over the internet, making the collectible cards market a tad bit difficult to break into. But with its unique look, feel and gameplay, Faeria is definitely among the few that managed to stand out!
Magic: The Gathering Online
Magic: The Gathering Online brings the renowned tradable card game series to the growing online community of card game enthusiasts (finally). Containing every card ever devised for the original board game, Magic: The Gathering Online (or Magic Online for short) is an MMOTCG that has everything that a typical online card game would have, including collecting cards, building decks and duelling other players. Similar to most popular card games, this game is also very active among the eSports community, allowing the best of the best to showcase their skills on a much bigger platform for prizes that can be brought over into the real life.Magic: The Gathering Online may not be as popular as Hearthstone mainly due to its rather high skill ceiling, especially for players who are not familiar with its traditional card-and-board game. However, this doesn't mean you shouldn't try the online adaptation of the world's most popular and original (many other card games are inspired by this franchise) card game.
