DC Deck-Building: RIVALS - Batman vs Joker

Both players start with an identical starting deck and take turns buying more powerful cards from the shared Line-Up. Attack power allows you to attack your opponent directly instead of hitting cards from the Line-Up; Block cards protect you from that. Each player has three oversized character cards that get stronger each time they are defeated — the first one to "knock out" their opponent three times wins immediately. If the Line-Up runs out, the player with the most Victory Points wins. The set is fully combinable with other DC Deck-Building Game products.

DC Deck-Building Game: Rivals - Batman vs The Joker is a tight two-player battle that augments the deck-building genre with direct attacks, making it feel significantly more interactive than most deck-builders. The mechanic of escalating character cards – each time you are defeated, you return stronger – gives the game a dramatic arc that perfectly fits the theme. Fans of the DC series will immediately recognize what they love here, while newcomers will find an accessible entry point in this compact package. For a pure two-player battle, it's a strong, fast choice.
