Top Five Seeds of Unity Part II - Welcome to part II of our Top 5 (seven including the two OOF cards) for Seeds of Unity and perhaps a few more bonuses for your pleasure! This time we are looking at the remaining three factions – Muna, Ordis and Yzmir. So, let’s get straight on into it! Muna 1. Rabbit Farmer This card is just value for a Turuun deck. You are pretty likely to get that cheap boost in both the common and the rare, so I think it’s just low cost value for Muna both on turn 1, and as a later after you 1-cost card that will generate more than one point of stat. The rare will kind of be Muna’s version of Ordis Trooper but with less military involvement and more bunnies. 2. Muna Botanist If there’s one thing that Muna likes, it’s anchoring..

Top Five Seeds of Unity Part I - Seeds of Unity has now been fully revealed but we are a little way off from actually getting our hands on the cards to play with them. So, here at the Altered TCG Blog we thought that we’d get our collective heads together to take a look at what we think will be some of the top cards in each faction. In part one we’ll be looking at Axiom, Bravos and Lyra. Don’t worry Muna, Ordis and Yzmir fans; we’ll be looking at those factions in part II coming soon. Axiom 1. Axiom Exhibit Powering up your cards in the reserve is good, however it’s the rare here that really shines as with Della you can add a boost to a card in rare and exhaust it before using Della’s ability to starighten the Exhibit. Then you can activate the..

The Diary of an Amateur Cosplayer - How it all Began So, before I started playing Altered I had never done any Cosplays before. Given that when I started playing Altered, I was fifty-five years old, it may have been thought that it was perhaps too late to start. However, I’m stubborn and I decided to give it a go. After all, what could be so hard? A lot of things, it seems and the other fantastic cosplayers make it look so eary! I guess (if you’re interested) you’ll see some of my problems I came across, and the solutions that I came up with. Even the ones that were not as good as I wanted them to be. Asmodeus It all started for me when I began to wonder which character in the game I would be able to cosplay. As an older and more rotund..

Opinion: Rotations and Bannings - The February patch notes dropped last night and boy was it a doozy! There was a lot to take in but the next question we need to ask ourselves is, did Equinox make all the right calls with their decisions? The Sigismar in the Room Sigismar has been dominating the Tumult ever since the off. He’s been competitive from the beginning, and even when Waru, Treyst and Afanas were dominating things, Sigismar was the reliable deck that could still pull out wins. It has never been out of the top metagame and it’s been clear for some time that he was too good. Equinox chose to put in the small nerf that several people including myself had previously outlined. This was to exclude Sigismar’s free token on the first turn, which removed his nearly free expedition on turn 1...

We interrupt this blog for a message from Auraq .... - “The Bravos, they are always in such a hurry. They show up at our little performances at the last possible moment and then leave as soon as the curtain is coming down. They are always in such a rush. You would think that they should take time to savour the exquisite intricacies of the performance. Understand the subtle inferences in the work, such that every meaning and nuance can be extracted from the words so that they understand the true themes.” “But no, all such things are lost on them in their hurry to go about their lives. They act quickly and without true thought and the only thing that saves them is that they are fit and skilled in the outdoors.

Where to catch up on the lore! - We’re now deep into the lore articles on the main Altered website and I know there are folk out there who like to religiously follow the new articles. However, what if you haven’t and the sheer bulk of articles and the concepts in the story seem mysterious to you? How do you catch up with all the details of the setting and all the characters involved in the story? Let me introduce you to a new Wikipedia that will help you get into all the story. It will help you discover all the background details to your favourite Altered cards.

When Sol needs an ending! - So over Christmas we have had a couple of new spoilers, foremost amongst the two was the Exalted card for Bravos and as you’ll see that its tailor made for Sol and Halua. A five cost from hand and reserve for a 6/6/6 is already a good deal, tracking a little above the standard rate, but putting so much of your eggs in one basket is always a risk that it will get taken out with some cheap removal. Since this is the last thing you will be playing in the turn (as the card has a -> Pass ability), then you are inviting removal against it. How can we get around this problem? Well the card is not an Exalted card for nothing. It gets a discount on its cost of 1 for every card you have already played..
