Introduction to my Achroma blog!

A quick introduction to me, myself and I

Hello to all you Realm Runners out there! My name is Antinomy93, or Craig if you prefer. I’m relatively new to Achroma and so I thought that with my experience with the game so far, alongside my recent win at the Draco Summer Grand Tournament in Poole as well as Draco Planum’s 2nd Chapter just on the horizon, it would be a great time to start using my enthusiasm for the game and help spread it as far and wide as it can possibly go as I’ve always wanted to get involved in the world of content creation!



As a player, I generally lean more into the competitive scene, since I love the challenge it brings, however I absolutely love being creative and seeing all the whacky combinations of cards people can come up with, after all diversity just makes everything more fun!

What I’ve got planned

Following this mentality, I’ll be focusing most of my posts on the competitive aspect of Achroma - What cards are the most powerful and why? What chronicle is strongest? How can we combat these cards and mechanics going forward to really flip things on their head for your next event?
I’ll also go over the keywords as they come out and analyse their strengths and weaknesses vs the current ones we have at our disposal.


As I mentioned earlier, with Draco Chapter 2’s released imminent I’ll post something soon talking about the new mechanics and how they fare vs what we already have from other chronicles and then, once the full set is revealed, I’ll discuss the key cards from it and what impact they’ll have on the game as a whole. Alongside all this I’ll work on getting some content out discussing the already established keywords (going in chronicle order) and the main decks that are used so that, for anyone completely new to the game, you will be able to see everything the wonderful world of Achroma has to offer!

For those who may not be aware there’s actually a discord channel dedicated to the game with a very active and welcoming community that the core team all take part in too, I’ll have a link below along with one to the main website for anyone that wants to read up on it and another for their online store. Any purchases over £30 will get a limited Draco Summer promo card, however the season ends very soon so don’t miss out!


See ya real soon folks!

A First Look - Monsters of Norso

Image
 Hello and welcome realmrunners! As we’re now well into sneak peek season for the up and coming Monsters of Norso the content creators of the community are starting to get our own individual cards to look over. So here’s the first piece I have - just some artwork to get us started off; The Minotaur’s Domain . Along with the artwork I’ve got the following little bit of lore to go with it - “The Minotaur resides here when he isn't out wandering the labyrinth.”  So what we know for sure is that it’s a Location that directly relates to ‘The Minotaur’ whom I suspect features in the set’s cover art. First impression I get from this art is that it’s very dark and misty, so most likely Achrom-leaning if not fully Achrom. It’s also giving me a very similar sort of feel to cards like Murky Manor  or Throne Room from the other realms; a very foreboding and shadowy building that’s most likely to be related to a very dark Character. With this similarity in mind I’m getting the feelin...

Competitive Talk - Palette Archetypes

Image
Hello realm runners and welcome! It’s been a hot minute since I did any competitive-based articles; since before the last GT actually, so thought it was about time to revisit them. As Achroma’s card-pool expands we start to see palettes across every realm that have similar playstyles or gameplans in how they are going to hit 30 shards or drain their opponents down to 0. For anyone already involved in the competitive scene of card gaming this topic is already a known thing; Archetypes . Generally speaking, when it comes to most card games, there are three main branches of  Archetypes; Aggro , Combo  &  Control . So let's give a general idea of what each one is for those not so familiar with them. Aggro  - Arguably the most simplistic Archetype  and very newbie-friendly; put out a lot of threats quickly so you're opponent is unlikely to be able to deal with everything and win through sheer force. Combo  - Using your cards in a way that they all synergise ...

Spirata Fall Season begins!

Image
  Hello there Realm Runners, I hope you’re all doing well! As September has now come to a close, so too does Draco Summer season - With Tenebris’ attack successful and the Dragon Temple now fallen the next question is…. What fate awaits the Fairies and Pixies of the Spirata Planum? That’s where all of us, as players, come in! Once a quarter (every 3 months) is a new season in the world of Achroma and, as with every season, Spirata Fall is kicking off with the Achrometer event!  https://www.achroma.cards/global-achrometer Every win that happens this month will be recorded on the Achrometer as to whether it was a Chroma win (getting your shards to 30) or an Achrom win (draining your opponents to 0) and, at the end of the event, which ever side got the most wins then drives what happens in the story and even has an impact on some of the new cards which come out! So get put there and get fighting for your faction to bring them victory in their story! Along with a new season is com...
