Decks & Factions

Aether Realms has ten fixed faction decks, each with its own archetype, keywords, and win condition — no deckbuilding required to start, though a full custom deck builder is available once you own a faction in-game. Pick the kingdom whose strategy matches how you like to play.

Mythic Beasts Aggro / Tribal · Beginner
Every Beast makes the next one hit harder — go wide and swing as one pack.
Steampunk Hold Midrange / Control · Intermediate
Every turn you survive, the clock ticks further in your favor.
Damned Covenant Aggro-Control · Advanced
Pay in your own blood for cards, removal, and power.
Dwarven Clans Control / Wall · Beginner
Outlast anything — nothing in the game hits harder than a Dwarf blocks.
Jade Dynasty Midrange / Tempo · Intermediate
Disciplined formations that punish every trade, on offense or defense.
Elven Court Aggro / Glass Cannon · Advanced
The hardest-hitting stat lines in the game — if you can survive long enough to swing.
Star-Fallen Control / Attrition · Advanced
Every death on the battlefield — yours or theirs — fills your hand.
Human Realm Balanced Midrange · Beginner
A little bit of everything, and an answer for almost anything.
Orc Horde Pure Aggro · Beginner
Hit first, hit harder, hit again.
Undead Dominion Control / Recursion · Intermediate
Nothing you kill actually stays dead.
