Description

In Tyr, you play as a legendary duelist battling in the arena. You can engage in quick 5-10 minute 2-player matches or participate in a Grand Melee where 3 or more players fight to be the last one standing. Each duelist is represented by an 18-card deck, with unique strengths and weaknesses. Each deck contains 4-6 double-sided Hero Cards that form the Hero's body. The remaining cards are single-sided Duel Cards. Hero Cards represent the areas of the Hero s body that can be targeted by the opponent, including the head, body, legs, weapon, and hand. Duel Cards, numbered 1-9, represent the Hero's basic attacks (white numbers) and more powerful attacks (black numbers). Gameplay involves playing Duel Cards, resolving attacks, and using special abilities. A Hero wins by: (1) killing the opponent by wounding their body after it's already wounded, (2) killing the opponent with a 5+ card Power Attack, or (3) forcing the opponent to concede by leaving them unable to draw a card.
