Might & Magic: Duel of Champions is a free-to-play trading card game available on Steam or via the game's website, as well as on the iPad app store. It is available for cross-platform play. The latest expansion was July 7, 2014, titled "Griffin Bane" which introduced new game regime "Road to Paris".
The game was shut down on October 31st, 2016.
Gameplay
The focus of the game is to kill the opposing hero. Each hero has a deck of 59 to 209 cards, containing 1 hero, 8 event cards, and 50-200 in a combination of creatures, spells, fortunes, and buildings.
Each player starts with their hero in play. The hero determines several things about the army: the faction of the army, the usable spells, and the initial levels for might, magic, and fortune. Each turn, the hero gets one more point of resource that can be used to play creatures, spells, and fortunes, and the hero can use one of its skills. One skill that every hero has is to increase the might, magic, or fortune level by one.
Each card requires a payment of a certain amount of resource and a hero level of might, magic, or fortune. For example, an Imperial Crossbowman requires a payment of 1 resource and requires the hero to have a might level of at leas 1.
Creatures line up in rows, melee creatures in the front lines, shooters in the back, and flyers in either. They can attack and use their skills to kill other creatures and potentially the enemy hero. They require might levels to summon, although some also require a certain magic level. Spells and fortunes have instant or ongoing effects and require magic or fortune respectively.
