Arcane Showdown Gameplay Strategy

In the game you need to start earning mana as soon as possible, but if you only focus on that you run the risk of being overwhelmed by your opponent if they decide to attack early. Find a good balance of increasing your mana earning while being prepared to defend an early attack.

Enchant the beacons close to your tower to gain more space and have more mana veins available to enchant thus increasing the amount of mana you will generate per second. Don't forget you can enchant the Mana veins more than once to increase the amount of mana you will earn.

Enchant Mana Veins

Unlock you 2nd and 3rd tier cards as soon as you can, this will unlock the strongest cards in your deck and hopefully their usage will lead you to a crushing victory.

Don't waste mana. If you are reaching max mana and cannot enchant, use your mana to unlock the 2nd and 3rd tiers, if already done, throw your slowest moving card to the back middle of the playing area, so he has the longest walk to the enemy zone. Do this, so no mana is wasted, when he reaches the enemy, you can then decide to reinforce the attack or not.
