Before you begin your qualification, please note that the following 3 Special Abilities (SA) have been modified as follows: ⬇️

Banner of Command

After
Controlled Battle cards that have the same element of your Leader, gain +1 reinforcement. Each card of the same element as your Leader has a deck cost reduction of -20. This is a passive effect and applies at the start of the duel.
Power of Mirror
Before
When played, your Leader copies the nominal power of the most powerful card you own on the board.
After
When played, your Leader copies the nominal power of the most powerful card on the board.
Ríona
What if Ríona was there to help you climb the ladder?
We are very proud to announce that starting on June 26, 2024, you will be able to craft the Elemental card Ríona, Metaverse Eater, the most powerful card in the Season 02 - Mantris Collection.
To recap, the merge requirements for Elemental card are as follows:
- Own all 13 Alternative SR Cards (Season 02 - Mantris)
- Have 39,000 Trisel
The Ríona's numbering will be done on July 10th, 2024, at 8.00 AM UTC. For the general merge conditions, here are all the explanations.
Just Enjoy! 💥
SR Card Airdrop 🃏
The 2nd wave of SR card airdrops from the Season 02 - Mantris collection resumes on Wednesday, July 10, 2024, with the return of Jackie.
To receive the next SR Jackie card, staking your CTA tokens will resume on June 26th and must be completed by 8:00 am UTC on July 3rd, 2024. Staking must be completed 1 week prior to the SR card airdrop. After this date, you will only be eligible for the 2nd and subsequent SR cards if you still meet the wagering requirements.
You may have the chance to craft the awesome Elemental card Ríona. Here are the 2 conditions you must meet: 🔽
1. Staking
Staking CTA tokens is the first requirement to be eligible for weekly SR card airdrops.
For 1 SR card, the staked value of CTA tokens must be $750.
Staking can be made through either a pool or a mint pass. Note that staking with a Mint Pass costs 50% less than the standard pool, and the new Mint Pass effect, SHIELD, limits stakes to a maximum of 1,500 CTA per staking stage.
CTA tokens cannot be unlocked until the end of the betting period. Keep an eye out for upcoming milestones such as the Genesis Lands sale starting in mid-September.
Key points:
🔸 Stake the equivalent of $750 for 1 SR card
🔸 Stake CTA tokens in a pool or through a Mint Pass
🔸 Mint Pass stakes are 50% off and capped at 1,500 CTAs.
2. Gaming Points (GP)
To unlock SR cards from the pool or the Mint Pass, you must have earned enough Gaming Points (GP), which is the second requirement. GP can be earned by winning games in Ranked and Normal Arena modes, repeatable dungeons, and raids. Note that for a Blue Mint Pass (Legacy, Golden, and Golden Legacy), 100% of the GP is earned passively.
Please find here all details regarding SR card airdrops.
As announced in our May 24th article, there will no longer be a break between cycles. Once the Mantris cycle is complete, the Rift cycle will begin the following week. Therefore, be mindful of your staking periods. 🙏
Other relevant points 👀
Mint Pass: SHIELD
As you read above, a new Mint Pass effect has been introduced. Its purpose is to protect our holders and early adopters from the token price to get their SR cards!
As long as the CTA token price remains below $0.25, the launch price at which you invested heavily, a maximum of 1,500 CTA tokens will be required to unlock a level in a Mint Pass and receive an SR card! At the current price ($0.14), an SR card from the standard $750 pool now costs $210 for Mint Pass holders.
Of course, once the price rises above $0.25, the cost per stage will be back to $375 in CTA tokens for Mint Pass holders and stakes.
VIP Program
Here it is, we are officially launching our Loyalty Program starting June 26, 2024. This program allows each user to activate benefits based on the amount of VIP Points (VP) earned. VIP Points (VP) can be earned in two ways:
- Staking CTA tokens, such as SR Cards
- Spending CTA tokens through in-game store purchases and card minting (excluding the secondary market).
Benefits include discounts in the store, reduced minting fees, reduced marketplace fees, and exclusive features in TCG and Arise games.
CTA Wallet
Launching Wednesday, the CTA wallet is Cross The Ages' new solution designed to streamline onboarding, reduce fraud, and simplify blockchain operations within the application.
The CTA Wallet is required to:
- Minting a card
- Burning assets
- Crafting
- Staking CTA tokens to get SR cards
- Purchasing CTA tokens through the application or the Portal
Important Information:
- Account verification is required to withdraw any asset from the CTA wallet.
- Each minted card is automatically added to the CTA wallet.
- You can use the Marketplace from the CTA Wallet.
Security:
Please note that your CTA wallet is protected by MAGIC LINK and therefore by the email address associated with your account. If you lose access to this email, you won't be able to recover your assets and CTA won't be able to help you recover them.
Farewell, my Pranah!
The time is approaching when your Pranah will be converted into CTA tokens! If you have Pranah in your account, you can activate your CTA wallet this Wednesday to receive your CTA tokens.
For in-game Pranah, a snapshot will be taken during the June 26th update. There's no need to rush to create your CTA wallet; you'll receive the appropriate number of CTA tokens based on this snapshot.
For unopened Pranah bundles or those in the Pranah Collection, you will have to activate your CTA wallet first. The Pranah will then be converted at the market rate at the moment you enter the code.
To create your CTA Wallet account after Wednesday's update, please log in directly to the Portal, go to the My Account page, and activate your CTA Wallet.
Watch Dogs raids are over for now
During the qualification period, we will take a break of raids in-game. You will soon have the pleasure of fighting new bosses!
Season 03 - Rift
Pre-sale for Season 03 - Rift will begin in early September, and the season will launch at the end of September. Stay tuned for more details!
Patch notes 0.24 & 0.25
We will be merging the 0.24 and 0.25 updates so that you can experience both the new gameplay and the Rift Season together at TGS in late September, both are going together! 🤗
Looking forward to seeing your Ríona and meeting our 64 heroes in 2024!
Enjoy the update everyone! 🥸
