How well did that go??
Tuesday Jun 24, 2025
Tuesday Jun 24, 2025
The first European Alpha Clash Awakening was held on Sunday last week, in the UK.
I went, played and met some great people there.
The venue, the leaky teacup, was the most cosy place imaginable. And the community there and showing up, to play the Alpha Clash TCG, was so nice and welcoming.
I had some great great games, against Contenders I never played before, and want to get home and start deck building.
have a peep at the Clashing teacups YouTube channel : https://youtube.com/@clashingteacups
And swing by the leaky teacup in Retford (UK) if you get the chance.

So much Awakening
Monday Jun 16, 2025
Monday Jun 16, 2025
So much to talk about, between spoilers and audiobook. But I want to talk about the Awakenings. What is it and what do I expect to show up.
Give it a listen, and let me known what I missed. And what Awakening you are going to.

What controls the meta of Alpha Clash?
Tuesday Jun 10, 2025
Tuesday Jun 10, 2025
The Progenitors gambit has been concluded and Krung, of all beings, is victorious.
That make me wonder what creates a meta in a tcg, and what the reason is for it not being the same everywhere.
So I'll explore that.

Getting rid of Krung
Monday Jun 02, 2025
Monday Jun 02, 2025
The Progenitors gambit has ended, and the most unlikely of champions have raised. Lord Krung....
the leader of the discarded ended up as the only one in top 4. And a game went almost to time, before one player decked out.
Can we fix that? Should we fix it? Let's dive into the World of Alpha Clash

Draftbox every time
Monday May 26, 2025
Monday May 26, 2025
Had to many topics to choose from this week. But settled on talking about the new design for the booster boxes, a product close to my heart.
From the next set onwards, every set will be a draft set.
I opened the original draft box a while back : https://youtu.be/FtZdb4S7mQ0
hopefully the new sets will be just as good.

Player versus what??

Let's talk about the PvE, Siege of the forgotten, from Alpha Clash TCG
We might have seen some of it before, but never like this, with so many things put together in a way that makes sense It seems to scale well to different player levels, and even has game modes that are very unique.
Co-op games I TCG must be hard to get right, but I think they did it.
Now we are just waiting for the release, and for the treasure packs to get cracked.
Take a look at the Team covenant stream, if you want to se some gameplay:

and for some good analysis of what it might mean for deckbuilding, you should watch Gravecrawlers take on it:

The end of Clash kits
Monday May 12, 2025
Monday May 12, 2025
This episode is not so short - sorry about that.
The starter kits, called Clash-kits, are being discontinued, and they perform a very important role in the development of a game.
So this week I'll be talking about what I think and hope will be in the replacements.
Alpha Clash does do things differently, but with these I think we can do some predictions.

Be the champion
Monday May 05, 2025
Monday May 05, 2025
A part of the news that Rising Empire Studios are going full indie, is the introduction of Champion stores.
That is a smart move, and a good way for them to get closer to the Alpha Clash community. That must be the dream of every indie TCG game out there.
But there is more to it than that...

Just1Pack and the AC on podcast
As many other the TCG journey started with Magic. But instead of staying with just that game, it opened up the world of TCG's.
I am a strictly casual player, which means that would never find the joy in, nor the time to, put in the effort to play competitively. I get why some do, and acknowledge the commitment and skill it takes. That said, I will always be an advocate for the casual player.
This podcast is about the joy of playing Alpha Clash.
I am no expert when it comes to TCG's, and will gladly be proven wrong by examples.
So I will share with respect and strive to do good.
Tom
