tl;dr
Gameplay is good but the monetization makes the game bad.

This game is amazing, strategic and fun, easily the best card game I have played, and it's so sad that it is ruined with it's monetization. I know that card games are usually pretty expensive, but normally there is still a way to get cards without using money for them. The community market makes this a bit cheaper than other card games or atleast you don't have to buy lootboxes to get a random chance for a card you need.

GAME MODES

Tickets are used for expert play where you have 3 options,
Constructed
Where you play with a deck you made out of your collection. Costs 1 ticket to enter.
Phantom draft
You choose 60 cards from the random cards presented to you and creat a deck which you can't edit between matches. Costs 1 ticket to enter.
Both of these modes you get prices: 3 wins = 1 ticket, 4 wins = 1 ticket + card pack, 5 wins = 1 ticket + 2 packs.
You can keep playing until you have won 5 times or lost 2 times.

Keepers draft
Same as Phantom draft but you can edit your deck between matches and you get to keep cards you drafted. Cost 2 tickets and 5 cards.
Prices: 3 wins = 2 tickets + card pack, 4 wins = 2 tickets + 2 card packs, 5 wins = 2 tickets and 3 card packs.

These game modes except keepers draft are in casual play, no need for tickets but you get no rewards.

MONETIZATION >:O
THERE IS NO WAY TO EARN FREE PACKS!!!

18€ initial payment
10 card packs, which are worth maybe 5€ in the market if you are lucky.
2 starter decks, which are absolutely horrible.
5 tickets, which you can use to get infinite amounts of card packs if you are a godlike player and the rng is in your side.

Card packs and tickets
Card pack costs 1,75€ and contains 12 cards with atleast 1 rare.
Tickets are sold in stacks of 5 and cost 4,5€ per stack.

Community market
Most of the cards cost less than 1€, there is a lot of cards with price tag less than 0,1€ but some cards are very expensive in the market, when I last checked 25 more pricey cards cost around 75€. Remember that you can have 3 times the same card in your deck so every time you see a price in the market you need to triple it. (Except hero cards you can only have 1).
Card packs are sold 1,75€ per piece and contain 12 random cards where atleast 1 is rare.

GAMEPLAY

Decks
Decks are constructed with
5 different heroes.
X amount off spells, X amount of creeps and X amount of improvements (usually equals to 40 cards).
X amount of items.

Colours
4 colours: red, green, blue and black.
You can only play cards with the same colour as your hero in the lane.

Basics
There are 3 lanes which each have a tower with 40hp for both players. When tower dies it reveals the ancient which has 80hp. Towers have mana pool starting from 3 and rising 1 per round. Mana is used to play cards.

Start of the game
At the start 3 heroes are dropped 1 for each lane for both players. Also 3 creeps drop randomly in the lanes for both sides. In next 2 rounds you get to choose a lane for your last 2 heroes.

Gold
You get 1 gold for creep kill and 5 gold for hero kill. Gold is used for items in shopping phase after each round.

Rounds
Each lane is played separately from each others. When both players have ended their turns heroes and creeps will smack whatever target they are aiming for and the game will move to the next lane. After 3 lanes have been played the round ends.

Items
Items are used to upgrade the stats of your heroes (health , dmg and armor) and can give usable skills that cost no mana. In shopping phase you can also buy consumables (health potions, free random spell and free random item)

Heroes
Heroes have special signature cards that are added to the deck, they also might have a passive or usable skill. When a hero dies it spawns back to a lane you can choose after 1 round.

Ending
You win by destroying 2 towers or a tower and the ancient.

This game is ass.
Seriously if you actually manage to find a weapon, maybe even pick it up with lag in this game and not get shot by the guy who landed 0.5 sec before you and has level 3 helmet and vest with every gun in the game. Then you maybe get couple nice kills and feel good about yourself until you get killed by someone with a shotgun who has been sitting in a bush or a random room from the beginning of the game.
Just total load of ass.

Early Access Review
This game already has more content than PUBG and runs much better for me. I know ppl are whining about fps and servers, for me I've never had this stable fps in PUBG and there is much less server lag too. Gameplay works well both pve and pvp is fine, I have actually died couple times pve enemies. I seriously want a single player rpg game which has gameplay and style like this.

Stuff that need improving are:
- Going into a game solo, you are still playing against teams of 2 which is fine, but
there should be an option to play against other solo players.

- In-game voice chat, there needs to be an option to turn this off. I don't want to
hear some 12yr russian yelling in his mic in a game.

- Game might be a bit too harsh, I don't see the point of leveling a hunter and buying
him perks and stuff when you can just get shot to the head and its all gone. (I've
not won a single game outside of the alpha mostly cause of how hard this game is
for a solo player)

- ADS aiming, Atm it requires you to press RMB to get crosshairs then you need to
press SHIFT to ADS. I thought this was awful at the start but after playing for a
while I have gotten used to it and it actually works well. I also do understand that
this is cause of the melee attacks that are done by pressing LMB when not aiming,
still I think there should be an option to ADS with just RMB.

In the end I have really high hopes for this game and if its done well it will be a huge game.

After 123 hours I've seen enaugh to say that this is the most overrated game I've ever played, heres why.

Don't touch this game without modding, its unplayable boring and broken. Mods are good but you still can't completely fix the awful combat, physics and followers. Beware when you mod you need Script extender and that needs to be updated when Bethesda wants to put more "mini dlc's" in creators club (which means downgraded free mods that cost money).

With mods this game becomes kinda playable and it fixes most of the game breaking bugs. Still I had to load like 10 hours of progress cause of all the game breaking bugs that hard locked the game. So keep saving after every step.

Games story isn't too interesting, most of the quests are literally "Go in to a cave, kill everyone, loot whatever you need and go back".

I dunno who ever thought it was a great idea to put inventory limits in these games. What does that add to the experience? Well it makes the game more frustrating, it makes you see more loading screens when you quick travel to sell useless stuff. For the gameplay it just makes the game even worse. There is no need for it just mod it out makes the game better.

Mods you need to have:
ui mod
combat mod
AI mod
spell mod
no cinematic kills mod
follower mod/ or I recommend just not using them at all (they keep repeating the 2 voice lines they were given every 2 seconds).
Tbh just mod the game so it isnt like it was made, it can't be worse.
