So you may be wondering how the Realm Rift format works, well I'm here to give you a simple outline on the game mode so you can start trying it out for yourselves!
What you'll need:
- The right cards to make an Achroma Canvas Palette (1 Legendary card, 4 Rare cards and as many uncommon and common cards as you like as long as the total amount of cards in the deck adds up to 30)
- Cards from multiple different Realms
- A means of tracking your Shard total
- 2+ players
To create a legal Realm Rift Palette, you must follow the same structure as a regular Canvas Palette as stated above, however you may include cards from any Realm and any Chapter in your Palette. You may also include Realmless cards such as Realm Runners, Rifts, Runes, Relics and Shard cards. You may not have more than 1 copy of any specific legendary or rare card, you may also not have more than 2 copies of any specific uncommon or common card.
Once you have built your legal Realm Rift Palette, you will start on 10 Shards and aim to reach 40 Shards or to drain your opponent(s) to 0 Shards in order to win. That's right, this game mode will require you to gain even more Shards to win than regular Achroma Canvas.
Realm Rift will introduce many new combinations and interactions that we've never seen before in Achroma and will be a new fun and crazy way to enjoy the regular Achroma Canvas game mode.
