Clash of Magic Schools

Didn't expect the two-school setup to matter this much, but picking which academy to back before the first spell is cast had me hooked. Splitting fire, water, earth and air across the decks keeps every round feeling different.

The four elements each play so differently that I keep switching schools just to try new spell combos. Turns are quick, so a full match fits in about half an hour.

Played this with my brother all weekend and the water-versus-fire matchup kept things tense right to the last turn. The two-school setup means every game plays out differently depending on who you pick.
