Take command of your Bloodborn General and engage in turn-based combat in Duelyst, the strategy game from CounterPlay Games that uses pixel art to create a uniquely beautiful gameplay experience.

Set in a tournament between rival city-states, players in Duelyst will choose their own Bloodborn General among half a dozen classes (each with their own unique abilities) to bring forth their cards in a no-holds-barred fight that will choose the true champion. Victory hinges on your spells and your cards, so learn and collect as much as you can.

The most distinctive feature of Duelyst is the lovingly designed pixel art of the game, calling back to a nostalgic feeling of bygone games through bright colors and unique characters.

Duelyst is home to hundreds of different cards for you to collect and use in your battles. Each card brings a different spell or creature into your arsenal, so it is imperative you make every effort to claim as many of them as you can.

Though there are only six classes within Duelyst, each one has its own unique abilities as well as access to class-specific challenges that can help you hone your skills.

And as your skills in Duelyst improve, you’ll ascend the ranks of the leaderboard as you best your foes in combat. Only the most skilled Bloodborn Generals will rise within Duelyst. Will you be one of them?

Great CCG!

I am an avid CCG player both in real life and online. I've tried Duel of Champions, Hearthstone, Heavenstrike Rivals and Hex. I am also an avid chess player. Given that, it's no wonder why I got hooked with Duelyst.

Pros:

Simple to learn, hard experience needed to "master".
Deck-building and ruleset offer less RNG compared to most CCGs.
Pixelart!

Cons:

Game is still relatively new so queue times aren't good sometimes.
Despite simplistic graphics, client is sluggish.
Pixelart?
