This, is the Sleeper Civil War…
In an alternate universe to the main IW timeline, the Sleeper Virus mutated once more. It continuously replicated the Endless Horde unit every cycle, causing an insurmountable number of sleepers. These Endless Horde, disconnected from the main sleeper hivemind, allied themselves with it’s closest highest ranked lifeform, determined by serotonin release. Serving nearby Rift Runners, these Endless Horde will fill your graveyards, and also synergize with any other Endless Horde you have.
In the Sleeper Civil War limited time Event mode (Only available for 12hrs between 4pm 11/11/23 PST and 4am 12/11/23 PST), both players will get an Endless Horde spawning in their Support Zone each and every turn. Build your decks to take advantage of this on your side, or to counter the opponent extra targets.
To introduce the five new cards coming in the Sleeper Community Set is the Avarrach Mastermind. Check out the shorts and transcripts below:
This is Power-starved Revenant.
The Virus dismantles the host's form, transforming it into energy for ceaseless propagation. Yet, in the scarcity of biological essence, our insatiable appetite intensifies. The Revenant faces a choice: slumber once more, awaiting a fresh wellspring of power, or embark on a relentless hunt, driven by the hunger to fulfill its purpose.
Power-starved Revenant can be overcharged when we deploy it, gaining the formidable Bloodthirst 4.
Behold our robust Sleeper, endowed with enduring resilience through Bloodthirst. Power-starved Revenant emerges as an exceptional selection, capable of thwarting the aggression or applying unyielding pressure.
This is Looming Resurrection.
The insidious Virus of Avarrach infiltrates bodies, animals, and the very earth itself, rendering reanimated cadavers an inevitable outcome. Even the colossal behemoths, if left to decay, succumb to the inexorable pull of resurrection.
"Looming Resurrection," is a mission that increments by 1% for every unit in any graveyard at the turn's culmination. Upon reaching 100%, the two units with the greatest costs from each graveyard ascend to join our support zone.
Combine the "Looming Resurrection" with formidable high-cost units, and witness the gradual emergence of a looming threat, steadily progressing towards a nightmarish culmination that could easily bring doom upon our opponents.
This is Endless Legion.
The preliminary waves of the Virus proved effective, albeit rudimentary. Yet, as time unfolded, the virus evolved, absorbing knowledge of strategy and technique. With each triumph, our formidable numbers burgeoned, solidifying our dominion.
Behold the might of "Endless Legion," an architect of death that constructs an Endless Horde in both the assault and defense zones upon deployment. Furthermore, Endless Legion surges with power, gaining a plus 2 plus 2 enhancement for each Endless Horde sleeping in our graveyard.
Assuming the role of a commanding officer to its subordinate, Endless Legion injects unparalleled synergy and potential into the realms of Endless Horde-centric armies. Endless Legion emerges on the battlefield as a menacing force, weaving a tapestry of dread that intensifies prior to its deployment.
This is Abandon All Hope.
In the face of the relentless onslaught of the Sleepers of Avarrach, feeble attempts to withstand the onslaught crumble under the weight of our collective. Even the valiant few who persist in their struggle eventually find their spirits broken, and once the core is shattered, the vessel is quick to follow suit.
Our Abandon All Hope ability allows us to create an endless horde in our support zone, and then "Overcharge" as much as we wish to create additional Endless hordes in our support zone.
While the wholesale surrender of our entire immediate reinforcements may seem strategically limited, "Abandon All Hope" emerges as a captivating choice that may catch our adversaries completely off guard, its true allure lies in the unanticipated synergy with other Avarrachian forces, paving the way for a sudden surge of formidable adversaries, overwhelming opposition with a tidal wave of relentless power.
This is Violent Awakening.
The dormant virus of Avarrach, having assimilated all life in it's realm, once lay in slumber. Yet, when confronted with the resurgence of mortality, the virus discerned that its grim task remained unfinished. In a tumultuous instant of chaos, the virus fervently recommenced its mission.
Violent Awakening, is a relentless mission escalating by 10% for each character introduced by your opponent. Upon reaching 100%, a cataclysmic transformation occurs, endowing all characters in our deployed area and graveyard with a permanent Bloodthirst 3.
The augmentation of Bloodthirst 3 to our deployed characters merely scratches the surface, as the convoluted dance of resurrection unfolds. A multitude of revived characters, imbued with the relentless hunger, multiplies the potency of our resurrections exponentially.
