## Overview

Versus mode landing page, anime fighting game style, split screen design, dynamic diagonals, high contrast, hud elements. Ideal for landing pages, modern websites. AI-ready template. The VS screen is one of the most enduring UI patterns in gaming. Street Fighter II didn't invent it, but it codified the grammar: two portraits, a crackling divider, names in bold type, the whole thing vibrating with anticipation. That split-second before the fight starts? Pure tension design.

Dragon Ball Z games pushed it further — speed lines, ki auras bleeding off the frame, typography that looks like it might explode. Guilty Gear and BlazBlue turned the entire interface into sequential art. Every meter, every health bar, every round indicator was drawn like a manga panel. The UI wasn't separate from the action. It was the action.

This energy migrated. Esports broadcasts borrowed the split composition. Competitive apps adopted the diagonal slash. Twitch overlays, tournament brackets, player cards — all descendants of that original VS screen. The pattern works because it's fundamentally about opposition. Two forces, one frame. No ambiguity about what's happening next.

- No pure black (#000000) — use off-black or charcoal variants
- No oversaturated accent colors (saturation cap: 80%)
- No 3-column equal-width feature layouts — use zig-zag or asymmetric grid
- No `h-screen` — use `min-h-[100dvh]`
- No AI copywriting clichés: "Elevate", "Seamless", "Unleash", "Next-Gen"
- No broken external image links — use picsum.photos or inline SVG
- No generic lorem ipsum in demos

- Do Diagonal split layout
- Do Contrasting colors (Red/Blue vs)
- Do Slanted/Skewed containers
- Do Bold Energy/fire effects
- Do Arcade style typography

## Implementation Checklist

- ☐ Diagonal split layout
- ☐ Contrasting colors (Red/Blue vs)
- ☐ Slanted/Skewed containers
- ☐ Bold Energy/fire effects
- ☐ Arcade style typography

## Execution Rules

1. Strictly follow the defined visual style.
2. Use high-quality inline SVG icons (Heroicons or Lucide style) — NEVER use emojis as icons.
3. Add `cursor-pointer` and smooth `hover` states (transition-all) on all interactive elements.
4. Required Page Structure:
   - Navbar (Logo + Links + CTA)
   - Hero Section (Impactful Headline + Subtitle + 2 buttons + 3D/Abstract visual element via CSS)
   - Features (3 cards with icons)
   - Testimonials (3 cards)
   - Pricing (3 tiers, highlight the middle one)
   - Final CTA
   - Full Footer with social links, privacy policy, terms of use, contact and SEO links.
5. All text content must be in English.
6. The visual must be CLEARLY distinct — do not create a "default Bootstrap" design. Force the use of the provided design system variables.
7. Use `<style>` tags in the head for custom classes (especially for complex backdrop-filter effects and animations) that Tailwind CDN doesn't cover.
8. Full Responsiveness: Layout must adapt perfectly to Mobile, Tablet and Desktop (vertical stack on mobile).
9. Include basic SEO, Viewport and Open Graph meta tags in `<head>`.
10. Footer must contain: Copyright 2026, Secondary navigation links and Social media icons.
11. Make the creative decisions needed to deliver the complete, functional result now.
