In Bahamut Dispute, engage in a wizard battle for the fate of your kingdom. To settle your duel, both you and your opponent race to summon Baleful Bahamut, a legendary dragon. Successfully summoning him will lead to an immediate victory on the following turn, but doing so won't be simple. Both players have access to a variety of spells and actions, drawing one of the 16 total cards and playing up to two of them on their turn. Cards can have simple effects like retrieving a card from the discard pile or stabbing your opponent with a flying knife, to more intense ones like boosting the number of cards playable that turn or summoning a goblin that instantly counters your opponent's attempts to do damage. Things are complicated further by the existence of Necro-nope-icons, which act as an instant nullifier to a used card, sending it straight to the discard pile. In order to win the duel, players must conserve their Necro-nope-icons and utilize spells and actions in clever combinations to force their opponent to waste theirs. When the time is right, bring forth Baleful Bahamut!
