Changes to Cross The Ages: TCG Seasons – New Cycles and Impact on Rift

🕒 Extending Seasons for a New Dynamic

After Arkhante, which laid the foundations, and Mantris, which refined the mechanics, Rift marks a major turning point. This third season introduces significant adjustments that will change the gaming experience. These announcements, revealed live during the AMA, allowed the community to ask questions and better understand the game’s direction.

From now on, each season will last nine months instead of six, with three successive waves of SR card airdrops. This change gives players more time to refine their strategies, perfect their decks, and complete their collections without rushing.

This new approach also aims to ensure better balance in card rotation, maintain their market value, and align the game with planned ecosystem developments. With this extension, players will have the opportunity to push their limits and fully exploit the interactions between cards to dominate the arena.

🎴 Sijin: A Strategic SR Combo for Rift

Each season of Cross The Ages introduces uniquely designed cards that enrich the gameplay. Sijin is an SR combo, a relatively rare card category that plays a key role in deck building and land protection.

Sijin’s Utility in the Game

Sijin is more than just a collectible card. It provides several strategic advantages for players:

• Land Protection: As an SR combo card, it grants a global defense bonus that strengthens lands against attacks.
• Access to the Physical Collection: Sijin is part of the set required to qualify for the physical SR card collection from RIFT.
• One of the Strongest Cards in the Game: Thanks to its mechanics, it plays a decisive role in the current meta and can make a difference in the most competitive battles.

How to Obtain Sijin?

Acquiring Sijin is a demanding process. To obtain it, players must awaken the 13 standard Rift cards, which are given progressively via airdrops throughout the season. Once these cards are assembled, they must accumulate 3,978 Stones and 98,800 Trisels to complete the fusion and create Sijin.

Sijin can only be crafted on the new blockchain. Unlike other SR cards, it will not be available on IMX, requiring players to migrate to the new infrastructure to obtain and integrate it into their collection.

What This Means for the Community

With these changes, Cross The Ages: TCG is moving towards a more structured season management approach. The extended season duration provides greater flexibility for players to build their strategies, while the introduction of Sijin as an SR combo adds a new tactical layer to the game.

These adjustments will have several notable impacts on the community:

• Better control over gameplay pace, thanks to a longer season duration.
• A structured migration to the new blockchain, ensuring a stable and evolving future for the game.

In Cross The Ages, each SR combo card represents a unique opportunity to adapt strategies and secure positions. Sijin will be no exception and will establish itself as a key the Cross The Ages ecosystem.

The coming weeks will be crucial, and we look forward to seeing how the community tackles these new challenges. Stay tuned for upcoming announcements and prepare for your migration into this new era.
