Some quick updates before getting into the topic of the day:
On December 14 we start the next monthly clashes where you can use the new heroes and cards from Unforgotten.
If you already know what a Monthly Clash is... here are the sign-up links:
If you don't know what a Monthly Clash is... let me fill you in! :)
The Monthly Clashes are the foundation of our online organized play program, as they give you a chance to play one game per week through the Tabletop Simulator software... that look like this:
Here you can see a tutorial on how to use Tabletop Simulator with Skytear.
There are no entrance fees nor prizes for Monthly Clashes.
The goal is just to play Skytear and have a good time together!
If you sign up, each week for 4 weeks you receive the new pairings by email and you have 7 days to schedule a time and play a match on the current clash battlefield.
To help you find a time to play with your opponent, we split participants in two groups based on timezones (Europe and the Americas).
This is the perfect chance to get your first games of Skytear, no previous experience required!
The Swiss pairing system means that you will end up facing opponents of your level and we are also working on a ranking system to help match people of the same level.
You do not need to build a deck to join! From within Tabletop Simulator you will find a list of pre-made decks you can spawn with 1 click (see image below). These are the same decks you find here under the PRESETS tab: https://community.playskytear.com/decks
Finally, if you feel like you need additional assistance you can come on Discord and tag @tutor to request an intro game, they might be able to help you!
Are you sold on joining? Here are the links for the 2 regions:
Just create an account on the community website, click JOIN, and you will receive an email on December 14 for week 1 pairings!
That's all for this week.
Happy gaming,
Giacomo

The homepage of our website has 2 new games since our last newsletter. They are both on the horizon... can you spot them? But first, in case you missed it: Earlier this summer, we announced Exceed: Skytear, the arcade fighting card game for 1 to 2 players. Dicequest, our lighthearted dice pool builder, is sailing the oceans to be delivered early this fall. Onward Twisted, the solo expansion to our MOBA board game, is also sailing the oceans...together with a restock of the base game and...
we just went live with a 🎊 new shop 🎊 here's what our new shop means in practice: you can pre-order Dicequest.Join us for some dice chucking after the summer! 🎲 you can *also* pre-order Onward Twisted. Or even some Onward items that have been out of stock for some time now. ☠️ you can *also also* pre-order Olan Taa, our worldbook compatible with D&D 5th edition (half of it is ready to use in other systems, if you hate D&D) 🌎 enough pre-ordering, you can also just order Skytear Horde (or even...
Dear gamer, Skytear is becoming Season 8 of Exceed... on Gamefound soon! I’ve wanted to write this newsletter for a while but we've been too busy wrapping up our 2 recents projects: Dicequest and Onward: Twisted (late pledges for Twisted are still open btw). The Exceed Skytear season was announced about 1 month ago elsewhere... and since then a couple of Gamefound comments already captured the mood we're aiming for: “Oh god, my two obsessions are combining? This is the best” Or even: “THE...
