Earlier this year, the team at Elestrals launched their new TCG set, Divine Champions: Firestorm. This brought a couple of new ideas to the game such as the Champion tags and I’m very excited to see how this plays out.
The Elestrals team was kind enough to send me a package that came with lots of Firestorm goodies including a Flurrmine plushy, a Firestorm booster box, the dual decks, and a couple of extra packs. You can check out my opening of all the packs and decks below, but for my full thoughts, I encourage you to read on.
I genuinely love Elestrals and am so sad that I don’t have a local place to play the game. That said, I do think in my limited experience playing that Firestorm is a very well planned set.
For starters, the starter deck bundle is genius (and there are two versions!). It’s an easy way for you and a friend to go in together and then immediately start playing your first game. The decks are well constructed and fun out of the box and the double-sided play mats have a ton of great and useful information to help you get through your first game or two.
My only complaint is that it doesn’t explain Foretell (a keyword) and as this was a new mechanic for me, it took a bit of digging to actually find any information on. Dear Elestrals team, please make this information more easily accessible.
