What's Happening?

Cryptozoic Entertainment is Happening!

July and August will be the Month for the World of Warcraft TCG. Check out what is coming up for the game.

Battlegrounds Starts July 30th

The new Battlegrounds will allow you to earn achievements not only during the weekly tournament on Saturdays but anytime you are playing. You can raid or play some casual games to earn your points through the Achievements system.

Stop by the store and find out about the Achievements system.

Class Decks

The Class Starters include a selection of cards from recent and older sets. These cards help form the brand-new Core format: a compacted, new-player-friendly format that prioritizes game time and minimizes down time. Each deck can be played directly out of the box, providing quick entry into the game for new players.

There are 18 decks in all, each one catering to a specific class and faction, and the packaging informs the customer exactly which combination he is purchasing. Players familiar with the online version of World of Warcraft®, but new to the Trading Card Game, will be able to select a deck that echoes their online character. Players also have a chance to crack the best Loot cards from across the first three years of the game—including the Spectral Tiger!

Archives

Your world just got a whole lot brighter! Archives is a hobby exclusive, premium product for the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game. Cryptozoic Entertainment has hand-picked the 190 mightiest cards from the first three years of the game and gave them the foil treatment. That includes foil heroes. This is a perfect opportunity for new players to collect the top cards from sets from years past. How can we deny a player the experience of opening a foil Leeroy Jenkins and immediately sending him into the whelps with reckless abandon?!

We’ve also taken the top Loot cards from history and inserted them into random Archives packs. Yes, that includes the Spectral Tiger, X-51 Nether Rocket, Red Bearon, and Saltwater Snapjaw! Twelve different loot cards in all are randomly inserted in premium Archives packs.

These 10-card premium packs will be available at a hobby store near you this August for a suggested price of $5.99.

Make your Classic format deck stand out with the first foils ever released in a World of Warcraft TCG booster product. Relive the best moments from history and do it in style with Archives.

What is Archenemy? That's a very good question. It is Magic's newest multiplayer format where one player will have the ability to play against a group of other players.

From Wizards.com:

ou've played Magic one-on-one. You've played it in a free-for-all. But have you ever wanted to just throw down the gauntlet against all your friends at once? Have you ever wanted to take on the whole world and show them who's boss?

Well, now you can! Archenemy is the first "One vs. Many" multiplayer product. With a deck of twenty oversized cards to beef up your favorite deck, you'll be ready to face off against as many of your friends as your kitchen table can hold. Two? Three? Twenty? Bring 'em on! Here you rule!

On June 19, become the Archenemy. There will be four different game packs, each one with a 60-card Magic deck featuring eight rares, and a 20-card oversized deck.
