Five New Tournament Starter Bundles For June 2022
June 8, 2022With the second Expedition Open of the 2022 World Championship Season coming up soon, we know many players are eager to compete and try to qualify for Worlds and earn a piece of that $100,000 prize pool. But building decks can be daunting, and its always useful to have more Shiftstone on hand to help change your existing decks, or build a new one altogether.
With that said, we at Dire Wolf Digital are excited to announce the return of Eternal Tournament Starter Bundles. This simple, straightforward offering includes a ready-to-play Expedition deck, an exclusive alt-art card (and in the case of Chirganth & Curiox, new alt arts of their created cards), plus Shiftstone to help add to your collection.
There are five decks available for purchase: Curiox’s Journey, Chirganth’s Fury, Vikrum’s Cruelty, Valley’s Law, and Arcanum’s Radiance. Each deck is geared towards a different strategy, so players can pick the style that suits them best. Each deck is built around a marquee staple from Cold Hunt or Valley Beyond, updated with a brand new alt-art only available in these starter bundles! This is an easy way to get your hands on some of Expedition’s most important cards, and are valuable additions to your collection as you go about building decks on your own.
Each Tournament Starter Bundle also includes 6,400 Shiftstone: enough to craft eight Rares or two Legendary cards, or some sweet premiums if that’s your thing. In addition, each deck contains a number of high-rarity Expedition staples. These cards are a great foundation for any player, and can be converted into additional Shiftstone as well. While this product is geared towards new players, between the exclusive alt-arts, Shiftstone, and high-rarity staples we believe this will be attractive to many veteran players as well.
Let’s take a deeper look at each of these new decks!
Curiox’s Journey with Alt Art Curiox, All-Seeing & Dragon’s Eye
