RELENTLESS? Haven’t we seen that before?

So, we heard the community feedback from the last tournament, and by your request, we would like to try out a conquest version of Relentless. A synopsis of the rules for Relentless: Conquest is below, but if you’re familiar with Relentless, it should be no surprise.

In Relentless: Conquest, players will construct several different decks, each with 30 cards as required by the Faeria client. But here’s the catch- there can only be 3 copies of any individual card (or 1 of each legendary card) in any participant’s combined decklists. So that means if a player uses 2 Freedom Fighters in one list, and 1 Freedom Fighter in another, then none of their other decks may have any copy of Freedom Fighter in it!

At the start of the match, each player will select a deck and play a game. But, the winner’s deck is out! Then, each player will pick a deck (the loser may use the same deck, if they wish) and fight all over again. Once a deck is out of the match, it’s out for good, and the first player to win with all four of their decks wins the match!

We hope that this format will encourage creative deckbuilding, and really showcase both the players’ talent and the versatility of the Faeria cardset.

Future Showmatches?
We hope to provide you with as many showmatches as we can, if there is enough community interest. The prize payout, frequency, and format are subject to change for these future tournaments. Stay tuned, and we will keep you updated on any new developments!

Feedback?
Please send any and all feedback to crow.faeria@gmail.com or Crow on the Faeria discord server. Both positive and negative feedback is greatly appreciated!
