The Escalation set has been around the game since the 24th of February, so it's been playable in battles for around two months, even though it feels longer than that, but maybe it just feels like that for me since I do not really use them in battles. Back to what I'm saying, Escalation has been in the set for two months now, and still the conflicts for Escalation have yet to start. But it will now finally come as we get close to the end of the Conclave Arcana, which is ending in just two days.
So with that, here are the things that will be vital in the upcoming Escalation Conflict.
Escalation Conflicts
Instead of following through with the Conclave Arcana Conflicts, Escalation has separate conflicts that will follow it. In this conflict, there will be 6 additional archons that will have inputs from the top 6 players who have purchased the most packs during the Escalation pack presale, aside from the legendary titles and additional copies of the card. These players are the following.
The way the players can acquire these archons is through staking their cards in the Mage Wagon, where only Escalation cards can be used in order to earn contribution points that will determine how many copies of the card a player gets, though there is a chance that a player can get more through the player's luck or by using potions that increase the odds of getting more cards, as well as to get Gold Foil and Black Foil version of the card.
There has not been an official announcement yet of how many reward chances a player has to get a guaranteed copy of the card, but the current estimation was about 325 Chances, which is a lot, but still significantly less than compared to Conclave Arcana conflicts. A lot of these changes were due to the reduction of Black Foils minted in the set, by only having one pack type, as well as a reduced impact from Black Foils themselves.
Aside from that, there will also be a Gold Foil bucket event that includes four separate Foil Draw Buckets, each with its own prize pool. At the end of each Conflict, players will have 2 days to choose how they wish to allocate their Foil Draw Entries. Unused Foil Draw Entries will not carry over to future Conflicts and instead will be automatically assigned to the Gold Foil event for each conflict.
| Bucket | Card Type | Total Prizes |
|---|---|---|
| Gold Foil | 1 CC – no # | 50 cards+ 50 of 200 skins |
| Black Foil | Maxed | 9 cards (#'s 2 thru 10) + 50 of 200 skins |
| Gold Foil Arcane | Maxed | 5 cards + 50 of 200 skins |
| Black Foil Arcane | Maxed | 1 card + 50 of 200 skins |
The amount of Gold foil cards that will be in the Gold foil draw was meant to be about 155 Gold foils, but it was apparently reduced to only 50 because of technical difficulties in blocking out future gold foil cards in future pack openings.
This will also come with a Sparkle Potion, which is a new type of potion that can be crafted using the land resource, Aura.
Closing
And those were the things that you need to remember to prepare for the upcoming Escalation Conflicts. Many of the things that were changed from the previous Conclave Arcana conflict were due to the friction that it gets with some players, with how Black foil has messed up the previous conflict.
Thank you, and see you on the next post!
