Could you build this?

Partial While card creation and deck building are straightforward, building a faithful card battle simulator with deterministic turn/phase logic and rule arbitration is complex, though classic-era rules simplify it.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires a custom rule engine and state machine (e.g. TypeScript or Python) handling priority, chain resolution, and damage calculation, coupled with WebSockets for multiplayer synchronization. The hard part is building an extensible effect parser/interpreter that maps custom card text to programmatic trigger-condition-action logic without desyncing game state. It requires deep knowledge of TCG game loop engineering and state machine validation.
