Every Legend Begins Somewhere. Origin Wars is the first card battler where YOUR imagination builds the deck. Create an original character called Origins, and AI turns their story into a unique, balanced 28-card battle deck. Then take them into fast, fair PvP duels against players worldwide. FORGE YOUR ORIGIN Design your hero from scratch - codename, look, powers, personality, their backstory, AI reveals their hidden weaknesses for balance, and renders a stunning portrait plus a classified dossier. Then the magic: their fiction becomes their deck. A fire-wielding berserker gets aggressive burn. A shadow tactician gets control tools. No two decks are ever the same. BATTLE IN FAST, FAIR DUELS 3 - 6 minute matches. 10 HP, shields, combos, and signature cards charged with your hero's unique powers. Every deck is built to the same balance budget, so victory comes from strategy and skill — never from spending. No pay-to-win. Ever. - Quick Match — Ranked 1v1 with a per-character ELO ladder - Private Challenge — Call out friends by username or room code - Party Battle — Up to 8 players in chaotic free-for-alls - Tournaments — Enter cups, win prizes, earn permanent badges - City Battles — Fight for territory in the world of Origin Wars VOICE CHAT INCLUDED Talk trash mid-match and relive the replay together afterward. Beating your friends is better when they can hear you. CHARACTERS HAVE CAREERS Your hero's ELO, win streaks, tournament cups, and rank history belong to THEM. Build a roster of legends, climb the leaderboard with each one, and retire them as champions. PROVABLY FAIR AI creates — it never plays. Every match runs on a deterministic, server-verified engine. No hidden dice, no rigged draws, no client-side cheating. Matches are fully replayable, move for move. NO CARD PACKS. NO GRIND. Forget collecting the same cards as everyone else. Your deck comes from your identity, not from packs. Earn Shards through play and spend them making your hero more yours — new looks, new names, new stories, new decks. Forge your legend. The arena is waiting.

SOULSTACK — a necromancer auto-battler of stacked souls. You were a master of death, stripped of power and cast into the Pit: an endless tower of the dead. But every foe you slay rises to serve you. Recruit them. Fuse them. Weave a legion that multiplies — and climb. ◆ A LEGION THAT COMPOUNDS Draft undead, beasts, mages, and rogues into your warband. The power isn't flat stats — it's synergy. Line up the right tribes, roles, and Authorities and your army doesn't add up, it MULTIPLIES. Find the engine, break the wall. ◆ CLIMB THE ENDLESS PIT Every run is a fresh draft. Scout the floor ahead, counter it, and climb — the dead grow without limit as you rise. Fall, and you return to Level 1… but the servants you raised carry into the next life. Rise again. ◆ COMPETE WITH FRIENDS — ON YOUR TIME Conquer the Pit and set your army to guard your star. Then raid your friends' stars across a season of standings. It's all ASYNC — no live matches, no waiting, no always-online. Take a turn whenever you like; the war continues without you. ◆ FAIR BY DESIGN Premium — buy once. No ads. No gacha. No pay-to-win: the unlock sells the full climb and the collection, never power. Competition is normalized, so skill wins, not spending. ◆ THEORYCRAFT-DEEP Deterministic combat and simulation-tuned balance reward mastery over luck. Dozens of units, items, and Authorities to combine — the deeper you read the synergies, the higher you climb. Raise the dead. Stack the souls. Climb.
