Hello, Illumineers! It's been an exciting week in the world of Disney Lorcana. Ravensburger hosted their 3rd Lore Cast, highlighting the past, present, and future of Lorcana. Without further ado, let's "sail" right into it.
Disney Lorcana's 6th set Officially Named Azurite Sea
Right from the get go, the Lore Cast revealed an exciting trailer and the official name of Lorcana's 6th set, called Azurite Sea. So far, the theme seems to focus on adventures on the sea. The card reveals so far show some interesting interactions with characters that have either the Pirate or Inventor classifications. Speaking of inventors, we have our first official reveals of Big Hero 6 characters. Hiro Hamada, Baymax, and friends make their debuts across both the Sapphire and Emerald inks. Will there be even more synergy between these inks? Time will tell as we continue to get more reveals. We're also getting characters from Rescue Rangers as well, making longtime fans happy for their inclusion. Product-wise, let's take a look at what was announced as well.
Booster Packs and Boxes
Following suit from previous sets, booster packs will include 12 randomized cards from a pool of 204 cards. It can be assumed they will still follow the rarity distribution of 6 common, 3 uncommon, 2 cards that can be either rare, super rare, or legendary, and a foil card that can be any rarity, including enchanted, which is an exclusive alternate art version that is extremely rare. I cannot wait to see what enchanted cards will be revealed for this set. Booster boxes will continue to include 24 booster packs.
Starter Decks
Azurite Sea will be released with two starter decks. The first one is Amber and Ruby. With the box art showing both pirate versions of Jim Hawkins and Tigger, one can assume this will be a pirate-themed deck. The other deck is Emerald and Sapphire and will focus on the inventor-themed classifications and learn into that for synergy. We see Gogo Tomago and Gadget Hackwrench on the cover for this deck.
Illumineer's Trove
CAPTION
The Illumineer's Trove continues to be a fan-favorite with Lorcana, and it's back with 8 booster packs, a spin-up lore counter, card dividers, and a set of dice to use for tracking damage on characters.
Stitch Gift Set
If there's something I really appreciate from Disney Lorcana, it's their creativity when putting together gift sets. For this set, we're getting a Stitch-themed one that comes with an exclusive binder with the many versions of Stitch art all over it. We're also getting 4 Azurite Sea booster packs, and an exclusive Stitch - Alien Buccaneer promo card.
Deck Boxes and Card Sleeves
This set will release 2 deck boxes, focusing on the artwork from the cards Winnie the Pooh - Hunny Wizard and Scar - Vengeful Lion. The card sleeves for this set will match the same card art for the deck boxes.
Disney Lorcana Challenge Continentals Dates Announced
The Disney Lorcana Challenge for both the NA and EU regions have been announced, The EU continental event will run from December 6th-8th, while the NA continental event will run from January 10th-12th, 2025. It has been confirmed by Ravensburger that there will be last chance qualifiers at both of these events, so if you're looking to make it to Worlds this year, this may be your last chance!
Speaking of Worlds, we're still waiting for an official date and further details about those not competing in the event. We'll be sure to share those once they become available.
