Earlier quoted context omitted.

I understand the mechanisms for claiming or buying/selling unique cards to build a collection, but what are the rules for actually playing a game with the cards you've got?

Not much right now, but see https://etheroes.io/roadmap

I saw that page, but it doesn't mention anything about actually playing a game with these cards.

"Leveling" and "skills" are game mechanics, true, but what are the rules? You must have something in mind. Right now I have no idea even if the intent is solo play, 2-player, or more. Much less whether it's cooperative or competitive, deck building or engine-building or just tactical, and so on. How about whether there are going to be other (possibly a non-collectible core set) card types?

This is cool, but should be on an L2 solution, not the main evm.

You are probably right. I'm familiar with how Lightning network works in bitcoin, but not super familiar with L2 in ethereum. Do you have some pointers that I can read? I'm also interested in how it'll evolve with ETH 2.

Im not totally convinced that eth2 will provide lower gas fee's.. It's just a hunch, but it could be like how building more high way lanes just causes more traffic, so they never really alleviate congestion.

With that said, some of the l2 on ethereum is quite promising. I personally like xDai, though it is still in beta it has quite a few projects on top of it, I might use it for a few idea's I have as well. https://www.xdaichain.com/

zkRollups are also super promising. These guys look promising: https://zksync.io/

Anyways, I really like the idea. As a gan artist myself, I have had a similar idea, but more revolving around real life sports athletes.. problem is copyright would bite me in the ass real hard.
