You better stock up on cereal and milk because we’ve got an entire week of Saturday morning cartoons for you - it’s Animation Showdown week! Whether you love some classic Hanna-Barbera ‘toons or you’re more of an Anime fan, there is something for everyone this week. Remember, there’s also a crafting clue in every news article this week so make sure you read the whole thing!
As the new League begins, you’ll be back to the drawing board so what better way to start than with the Cartoon Fortoon pack which is available from 09:00 UTC and is bursting with coins, gems and Limited cards! Or, maybe you’d prefer the League pack, also from 09:00 UTC, with cards from Sea Birds, Watching the Skies or Herbivores.
New cards kick off from 12:00 UTC with the Epic Mondays pack, where you might find the classic animation technique Rotoscoping. The art of animating over live-action footage (or using it as a reference) will really bring your deck to life as when returned to your deck, if you lost the turn, this card gains +80 Power until played.
From 15:00 UTC, you’ll be singing “Oo-De-Lally, golly what a day” when you discover the new Legend of Robin Hood card, Allan-a-Dale in the Arts Finder pack. With this Merry Man, when played, if your deck contains at least 1 Instrumental card, it’ll give your The Legend of Robin Hood cards +16 Power for three turns.
At 17:00 UTC, you can blast off with the Amazing Astronauts pack. A perfect opportunity to give your Space decks a boost!
If you’re staying up late to squeeze in some more cartoons, you might catch an ad for the Sea Birds pack at Midnight UTC (there’s no ad, we’re just dragging out this watching cartoons gag for far too long). In there, you’ve got the chance for the ever-dapper looking Humboldt Penguin, which will, when drawn, if you are winning by 100 Power or less, give your Sea Birds cards +12 Power until played.
Today’s Nine Realms crafting clue is…
“This brings the heat to the realm of fire…”
Spicy!

LEAGUE RULES
-----------------------
En. Er. Gy. Man. Age. Ment. You might be bored of us saying it, but it won’t stop us! The Energy Rules for this week are a Starting Energy of 13, with 11 Energy per Turn, an Energy Cap of 23 and a Minimum Energy of 9.
Herbivores pick up a massive +90 Power, and with low-cost Herbivores boosts coming from Megaraptor and Platybelodon, and a permanent Energy reduction from Moose, there are plenty of ways to play.
Watching the Skies might not need the help, but it still gets an +60 Power Arena Boost this week, and with loads of boosts, and a fun combo with Wonders of Construction using Mnajdra and Jantar Mantar, not to mention the awesome Greenwich Mean Time, this deck could be a super viable option.
Or maybe you prefer something cuter - with Sea Birds’ +55 Power, alongside the March of the Penguins combo and Little Penguin’s incredible power, we’re sure we’ll be seeing some of these flapping around.
Gorgeous Graphic Design gets +50 Power, Unruly Rulers gets +40, and Mammals get +40 Power too!
