Could you build this?

Partial The web UI can be created easily, but a balanced tactical card battler with 90 forms, evolving states, and AI enemy logic requires significant game design, state machines, and balancing mechanics.

What it would actually take: A browser game built with Phaser, PixiJS, or React/Canvas. The complex elements involve implementing a deterministic rules engine, complex turn/stack state management, enemy decision-making heuristics, and mathematical stat balancing across hundreds of combinations, requiring specialized game mechanics engineering.
