The tabletop card game, , has been incredibly difficult to come by since its release, but has finally started to be more commonly found in both local game stores and larger mass retail locations. This means many more players will have a chance to experience the fun card game for themselves, and the conveniently packaged starter decks that are available for purchase can make this easier, especially compared to other prepackaged options like the extensive Illumineer's Trove. With five varying starter decks available to choose from, it may still be hard to know which one is the best.
Disney Lorcana Debuts New Format At PAX Unplugged, Will Give Away Three Promo Cards
29.11.2023 - 16:13 / thegamer.com / Will
Ravensburger has revealed its plans for the upcoming PAX Unplugged convention, and it includes, among other things, the debut of a brand new format for Disney Lorcana.
Formats are effectively rulesets on how to play a trading card game, and define things like how many players are involved, deckbuilding restrictions, and the introduction of entirely new mechanics. Other games, like Magic, have dozens of formats to try out, but Lorcana only has two: constructed and sealed.
The new format, Willpower League, is intended to be played at large-scale events like PAX Unplugged, which runs from December 1-3 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, but also probably can be scaled down to fit local game stores if needed. We don’t know much about the Willpower League yet, but it is described as a King of the Hill-style endurance test, where you need to win games to “hold [your] seat during the event to win prizes”.
Though the specifics on how the format plays still aren’t revealed, it evokes similarities to Grand Melees at Magic events, which is effectively a battle royale where players are knocked out until one one remains. Alternatively, it could be more of a duel-type scenario, where you keep facing off against opponents with the same resources until you’re eventually taken out.
More information about the Willpower League, as well as tracking wins during PAX Unplugged, will be available via the recently opened official Lorcana Discord. The event itself is already sold out, but any spare seats will be made available in Hall C should they become available.
If you don’t want to check out Willpower League, free open play areas for Lorcana will be available throughout Friday and Sunday.
It isn’t only Willpower League that is going to be available at PAX Unplugged, though. Ravensburger has confirmed it will be selling Rise of the Floodborn products and accessories, including booster packs, starter decks, and booster boxes. Disney100 and The First Chapter won’t be available.
Spending at least $25, or taking place in any of the Lorcana events, will earn you one of three promo cards each day: Four Dozen Eggs; Rapunzel, Gifted Artist; or Pinocchio, Talkative Puppet. That means, to get all three, you must play in both days of the Casual Play, and then also take part in the Willpower League.
If you’re attending PAX Unplugged, keep in mind you’ll only be able to shop at booth 2414 once during the event. Your ticket will be stamped, meaning you can’t go back to get the other two promo cards you missed. You'll also be limited to one Booster display, one of each starter deck, and one playmat, sleeves, and deckbox design.
Finally, at both booth 2414 and the Hall C event space, Ravensburger will be selling a load of other games,
