Card Highlight - Thrash

 Hello to you all realmrunners and welcome to another card highlight!

Today I was thinking I’d go into a card I discreetly alluded to in my article on The Unruly as he’s easily my favourite little cyperpunk of a Pixie to come out of The Secrets of Spirata; its Thrash!

Already sporting a decently healthy stat of 4 Strength & Shard Value, he also turns any Object you deploy into a form of removal. This can hit any card on the Canvas as well, it is not specifically just for Characters, Locations or Objects. This means if you’re building a Palette focused on Objects in Spirata, Thrash is definitely a go-to card to include.

This makes him a great tool in dealing with opponents’ Locations, that are otherwise hard to remove, as well as any Characters that have Poisonous without you needing to attack into it and lose a Character or Object of your own which then allows you to develop your Canvas further.

In terms of his usability, it may seem a bit strange, but even in a Chroma-focused Object palette he has a good place; in fact I’d even argue he’s easier to utilise due to his Pixie typing as you can then run Pixie Enlisting to get to him sooner whereas an Achrom-focused Palette would run multiple Pixies so cannot get to him as easily.

 

If you need an incredible object to pair with him look no further than Prismsprayer, ironically, from the Chroma Squadron faction. If it gets Erased due to taking to much damage you can immediately deploy it onto another Character for free which then triggers Thrash’s ability again.

Chances are Thrash will be a high priority target for removal from when you play him so I’d suggest you find a place for cards like Release the Fireflies or even Jamshid Orb as this would also trigger his ability as well as give him Protection. You can also make great use of Factory Production Line to grab an Object straight from your Palette, sometimes at a discount since it deploys them for free!

Spirata, as a Realm, has a lot of Object support within it so I’m confident this guy is one to keep your eye on as he’ll have a good place in those sort of Palettes for a long time going forward.

You’ll find Thrash in the Secrets of Spirata set, currently only available in First Edition on the website. Get the full Collection and you’ll not only get two copies of him (great if you play Heroes!) but you’ll also get the promotional location to go with it!

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!

  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...
