The crew is back with their first post-Origins episode. The release cadence has been a bit slower but will hopefully settle back into our bi-weekly-ish schedule soon here.
Wise Wizard Games made big waves with the introduction of ancestries for alchemist and barbarian so the crew takes a deep dive on the implications including match-up strategies, play advice, and build decisions. Visit this episode’s post on realmsrising.com to view the recommended builds!
This conversation sprawls beyond expectations (surprise surprise), bumping the much awaited second segment of Aarkenell’s mailbag question to the next episode of the pod.
Thanks for listening!

Hey everybody, DblDubz here. I love the Realms Rising community and have an absolute blast playing in the community organized events. Even if it's just a little bragging rights, playing with something on the line against people you know, just makes it that much more exciting to me! That's part of why talking strategy and working together to optimize our play is something I love doing.
A few other facts about me -- I come from a competitive Magic: the Gathering background and have played fewer than 50 games of Star Realms! I'm also married and have a one and a half year old son, both of whom I love spending time with.
Chat me up on the Discord server or send me a challenge in game any time!
