In battle, there are no equals.
Unmatched is a highly asymmetrical miniature fighting game for two or four players. Each hero is represented by a unique deck designed to evoke their style and legend. Tactical movement and no-luck combat resolution create a unique play experience that rewards expertise, but just when you’ve mastered one set, new heroes arrive to provide all new match-ups.
Battle of Legends, Volume One features four heroes. King Arthur sacrifices cards to power up his attacks and gets some timely assistance from Merlin’s magic. Alice is back from Wonderland with a giant vorpal blade and the Jabberwock by her side as she grows and shrinks to gain advantages on attack and defense. Medusa is happy to attack from range and let her harpies hound you, but just one devastating glance could end the battle quickly. Sinbad grows in power as he gains experience on each of his voyages.
Combat is resolved quickly by comparing attack and defense cards. However, each card’s unique effects and a simple but deep timing system lead to interesting decisions each time. The game also features an updated version of the line-of-sight system from Tannhäuser for ranged attacks and area effects.
The game includes a double-sided board with two different battlefields, pre-washed miniatures for each hero, and custom life trackers that’s brought to life with the stunning artwork of Oliver Barrett and the combined design teams of Restoration Games and Mondo Games.

Purchased this during a BAM moving sale. I think the system works well. Remains family friendly enough for a quick teach. The components are very nice. insert is functional too, Well thought out presentation. I can see how some really embrace this and buy all of the various characters. Not sure if I'd ever do that but wouldn't mind a few more. I enjoy how each character has its own deck. I could see the tactics becoming stale if you played it a lot as the deck has a lot of duplicate cards. Normally, I don't go for 1 vs 1 direct conflict.

Unmatched has proven to be a hit at my table. I’ve not had large amounts of play time yet, so some characters feel a bit unbalanced but I imagine that will smooth over as my group’s play time increases.

Totally ok fits in my oppinion best to the Unmatched series. I get what people like about them but Unmatched for me often times kacks clearness and denseness. Some times we sat there at the end and questioned why somone even won.
