# <center> **Introducing Conclave Arcana!** </center>

<center> *The Chaos Empire has fallen, but the fate of the Splinterlands is far from decided.* </center>

<center> *As Praetoria’s splinters struggle to rebuild, Archmage Portia Nyr makes her move. She and her Conclave Arcana seek the fabled secret of Praetoria, scouring the land for its scattered fragments. Power like that can’t be left untapped—not when the world is still ripe for the taking.*</center>

<center> *Kelan Gaines, a Mothrook Goathelm spy, uncovers Portia’s plan and sounds the alarm. But the kingdoms and empires of Praetoria were fractured by the rebellion, their leaders too busy restoring order to act.* </center>

<center> *The Riftwatchers turn to the League of Verico and its battle mage allies. That’s where you come in. It’s up to you to help the splinters of Praetoria stop Portia before her dark ambitions reshape the Splinterlands forever.* </center>

<center> *Will you rise to the challenge?* </center>

## **New Packs\!**

Conclave Arcana comes with THREE brand-new pack types—all sold in the in-game shop and available for trade on Hive Engine.



<center> ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/splinterlands/23tS36MUgmXavybEcksb2AqgZKqJqD9KkVkcPQG5w6WTVKWfqtDXvkb4dU9txE9s25NX8.png) </center>


### **Starter Packs**

We’ve designed Starter packs as an accessible and affordable entry point for new and returning players alike. Each pack costs only **1,000 DEC or $1 in Credits** and contains **5 cards** from the Conclave Arcana set: One guaranteed Rare card per pack. Starter packs will *only* contain Regular Foil Common and Rare cards, so you can’t use potions with them.

As a bonus, every $10 Spellbook purchase will include **five Starter packs**, with the company purchasing these directly from the DAO and sharing 50% of the revenue from each sale.

 **Starter packs will remain available until the release of the next major set to ensure new players have access to discounted packs.**

### **Standard Packs**

Standard packs return at a cost of **4,000 DEC or $4 in Credits**, offering a mix of 5 cards from the Conclave Arcana set. The odds by rarity and foil of each card in the pack are shown below. The odds remain the same as in previous sets. One card from each pack is guaranteed to be Rare or better.

* Common: 75.2%  
* Rare: 20%  
* Epic: 4%  
* Legendary: 0.8%  
* Gold Foil: 2%

Legendary Potions double your chances of pulling Epic or Legendary cards, while Alchemy Potions double your chances of pulling Gold Foils.

### **Alchemy Packs**

Alchemy packs cost **12,000 DEC or $12 in Credits**. Their card rarity and Gold Foil distribution is the same as standard packs, except they contain one guaranteed Gold Foil.***NOTE: if a Black Foil is pulled, then it will override and replace the guaranteed Gold Foil.**

Alchemy Potions double your chances of pulling Gold Foils for the other four cards, while Legendary Potions double your chances of any card being Epic or Legendary—including your guaranteed Gold Foil\!

### **Legendary Packs**

Legendary packs cost **24,000 DEC or $24 in Credits**. Their card rarity and Gold Foil distribution is the same as standard packs, except they contain **one guaranteed Legendary card**.

Legendary Potions double your chances of pulling Epic or Legendary cards with the other four cards, while Alchemy Potions double your chances of any card being Gold Foil—including your guaranteed Legendary card\! 

---

## **New Foils\!**

Conclave Arcana introduces three new foils of cards—**Gold Foil Arcane, Black Foil, and Black Foil Arcane**—with new card frames, animations, and unique mint numbers. Get ready for custom card backs, enhanced reveal animations, updated foil icons, and advanced filtering options in the market and your collection. You’ll also get a live display of remaining Arcane cards, with real-time drop chances shown on the website\!

### **✨ Black Foil**



<center> 
![mu_Jicarilla the Rime_crop.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/splinterlands/23wqEa3wtyAZTe3xaYeSpLFyqoHewA73ziJ3swvLuZg3hzM6U3CgewMohNeYGB5pk2GTk.png) </center>



Black Foils appear randomly in Conclave Arcana packs as max-level cards with collectible numbering. They cannot be combined.

You can use both Black Foil and Black Foil Arcane in lieu of Gold Foil during brawls and tournaments\!

**Other Perks:**

* \+20% Reward bonus in ranked battles  
* Half the cooldown of Gold Foil cards in Survival Mode  
* 5x the DEC burn value, Collection Power, and Contribution in Conflicts of Gold Foils  
* 5x base Production Point multiplier (same as Beta cards)

**🎩 Odds**

You can only find Black Foils in Conclave Arcana packs. The chances of each card being a Black Foil vary by pack type and are listed below:

* Standard Packs: 0.025% (1 in 4,000 cards or 1 in 800 packs)
* Alchemy Packs: 0.25% (1 in 400 cards or 1 in 80 packs)
* Legendary Packs: 0.125% (1 in 800 cards or 1 in 160 packs) 
* Starter Packs: 0%

A new **Black Foil Potion** is in development and will double your chances of receiving a Black Foil (details TBD).

### **✨ Gold Foil Arcane and Black Foil Arcane**

We’re excited to introduce the **Arcane** variant of both **Gold Foils and Black Foils**\! Both Black Foil Arcane and Gold Foil Arcane cards include a special visual flair and collectible numbering. If you luck upon one, it will always be a **max-level card** and cannot be combined.

We’ll pre-mint the Arcane variants and distribute them throughout the lifecycle of Conclave Arcana—keep an eye out for them\!

Arcane cards are **pre-minted, max-level cards** with collectible numbering.

**Gold Foil Arcane Mint Population**

| Rarity | \# GFA Per Card |
| ----- | :---: |
| **Common** | **50** |
| **Rare** | **25** |
| **Epic** | **10** |
| **Legendary** | **5** |

**Black Foil Arcane Mint Population**

| Rarity | BFA/Card |
| :---- | :---: |
| **Common** | **20** |
| **Rare** | **10** |
| **Epic** | **5** |
| **Legendary** | **1** |

We’ll distribute Arcane cards in Conclave Arcana packs (except Starter packs), with odds determined by remaining supply and pack weight:

* Standard \= 1x  
* Alchemy \= 3x  
* Legendary \= 6x  
* Starter \= 0x

If you win an Arcane card when you open a pack, the game will choose a random card from the pool and insert it into your draw.

Each pack can contain up to one Arcane.

## **📦 Promo Cards!**




<center> 
![Untitled (500 x 200 px) (2).png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/splinterlands/48J8M59Zm9YrJd7XKQ5MAvuhvLwyonXUuCEf7jfY3zfepgYntCXtcmjcQwEkvqHZ9u.png)
 </center>
 





Every player who purchases packs during the presale can receive **exclusive promo cards**:

* **One Rare Promo Card** (Arcane Skinwalker) for every **40,000 DEC or Credits** spent  
* **One Legendary Promo Card** (Gramel the Hunger) for every **400,000 DEC or Credits** spent

Each promo card earned has a **4% chance** of being a Gold Foil. Players will also receive **one guaranteed Gold Foil** of each rarity for every **25 copies** earned.

These cards are exclusive to the Conclave Arcana presale and will never be available again\!


**Rare Promo Card: Arcane Skinwalker**

Arcane skinwalkers shift forms as easily as others draw breath. One moment, a dwarf. The next, an ulund. A child. A beast. Someone with a familiar face.

Portia Nyr has no illusions about what they are. They’re not creatures to be trusted. They’re weapons to be aimed.

No matter the skin they wear, arcane skinwalkers feed on suffering and doubt. Whispers spread through the ranks — *was that our scout? Is that really our commander? Are the soldiers to my left and right who they say they are?*

And sometimes, it’s worse. It’s someone you love. A friend. A sibling. A lover. They hold you close. And slip the knife between your ribs.




**Legendary Promo Card: Gramel the Hunger**

*“It wears your face. It speaks with your voice. And when it claims its next victim, it'll eat them with your mouth.”*

Portia Nyr summoned Gramel the Hunger and its arcane skinwalkers from the Plane of Chaos to serve the Conclave Arcana. But in her boundless ambition and pride, she mistook dominion for submission.

The Hunger was never meant to serve. In the ever-writhing hellscape of its domain, it is a king of kings, sovereign of suffering, glutton of identity. It devours its victims face-first and screaming, feasting on flesh and remembrance. Their forms, their memories, their very selves become the Hunger’s.

And now, it walks the Splinterlands, shackled by the magic of Portia Nyr.

Gramel the Hunger plays along. For now.

# **🛒 General Sale**

You can open all Conclave Arcana packs on **May 13th** when the general sale of the remaining packs begins:

* 🧪 **4.5 million Standard packs**  
* 💎 **900,000 Alchemy packs**  
* 🛡️ **450,000 Legendary packs**

To ensure the supply of Conclave Arcana meets player demand, a daily burn mechanic will be in effect:

* If fewer than **15,000 Standard packs**, **3,000 Alchemy packs**, or **1,500 Legendary packs** are sold in a single day...  
  * **90%** of each pack’s remaining inventory will be **burned**  
  * The other **10%** will be sent to the **sps.dao account** for future DAO-controlled use

This ensures that all limited packs are sold or burned within **300 days** of the start of general sale.

---

# **🏰 Conflicts**

We’ll add **nine additional cards** to the Conclave Arcana set over time, including **six player-designed Legendary archon cards**. These will be distributed via the **Conflicts system** introduced with the Rebellion set.

For details on how Conflicts work and how to participate in them, check out our [Conflicts FAQ](https://support.splinterlands.com/hc/en-us/articles/22348307263636-Conflicts-FAQ) on the support site.

---

## **🎯 Contribution**

The total collection power of the Conclave Arcana cards in a Mage Wagon, combined with its staked packs, determines its Contribution per hour.

Conclave Arcana packs will contribute the following when you stake them in Mage Wagons:

* Standard Pack: 100 Contribution  
* Alchemy Pack: 300 Contribution  
* Legendary Pack: 600 Contribution  
* Starter Pack: not eligible (but you can still stake the Common and Rare cards found in them)

Additionally, **you can stake Rebellion cards** (Core, Promo, and unlocked Reward cards) and **Rebellion Standard packs** on Mage Wagons. All Rebellion-based assets will give **50% of the Contribution** of Conclave Arcana assets.

---

## **🔧 Upgrading and Repairing Mage Wagons**

Players using **Rebellion Mage Wagons** will need to **upgrade** them to participate in Conclave Arcana Conflicts. Then, after each Conflict, you’ll need to repair your Mage Wagons before you can use them in the next Conflict.

Upgrade and repair costs are TBD. All tokens spent on them will be burned, making Conflicts a meaningful token sink to maintain the long-term sustainability of the Splinterlands economy.

The team is also exploring the use of **land resources and other tokens** as repair materials. Stay tuned\!

---

# **📅 Modern Format Update**

With the launch of Conclave Arcana, the Modern Format will update to **Rebellion and Conclave Arcana**. All Chaos Legion cards—including core, Riftwatchers, Promo, and Reward cards—will rotate to Wild only.

We’ll continue to support older cards via **brawls, land, and tournaments** and will actively explore additional ways to maintain long-term utility for legacy sets.

---

# **🌟 Conclave Arcana—A New Era Begins**

Conclave Arcana is more than a new set—it’s a whole new era, with a ton of new packs, foils, cards, and abilities. You’ll see the bloodline of every character in the game—old and new—displayed on your cards. And with the new bloodline archons, you’ll use them to combine multiple elements to formulate your strategy and create your team. The presale leaderboard and raffle come with a whole slew of prizes and a ton of value. Your story continues in the next round of Conflicts. Modern becomes a whole new card game.

Whether you're building your land empire, duking it out in the arena, collecting ultra-rare foils, or shaping the economy, Conclave Arcana was made with *you* in mind.

Don’t miss out. Join the presale. Be there when it begins.

**THE CHASE IS REAL.**
