Uprising Season - Premiere OP

May 31, 2022

As the release of Uprising nears, we are excited to share details of the upcoming events that will be running through the course of the Uprising season of organised play! Following hot on the heels of the Uprising World Premiere events, we've got the Road to Nationals season running all through July, offering opportunities to qualify for National Championships season which will be coming up in September.

Pro Tour Lille will take centre stage over the weekend of August 26 - 28, with the last chance to qualify for this event coming up at this weekend's ProQuest event series.

And for those of you looking forward to more top level competitive play, we've got Calling events happening in Europe, Asia and North America! The big Calling event for the US is going to take place as part of US nationals, and will be part of a bigger set of announcements coming out soon around National Championships. But today, we're excited to share details of the two other Calling events we have coming up in Utrecht and Singapore!

Tickets for these events are now on sale:

Calling Utrecht

At the first Pro Tour in New Jersey earlier this month, the world watched as players from across the world competed in the highest-level tournament in Flesh and Blood to date. The Pro Tour took place in the United States, but four players in the Top 8 were from Europe, and the final match came to a showdown between Pablo Pintor from Spain, and Florin-Cristian Loghin from Austria. While they fought for the title of Pro Tour Champion, Mateusz Sass from Poland was on his way to winning the Calling event.

The Pro Tour: New Jersey proved once and for all the mettle of Europe's competitive players, which is why we're excited to announce the return of the Calling series to Europe for the second time this year! After restrictions forced our planned Calling event in Utrecht to be postponed from December to January, and then ultimately to cancel the event altogether, we are pleased to share that the Calling is finally coming to Utrecht.

Following the European language release of Flesh and Blood, the Calling Utrecht is looking to celebrate the growth of the European community, and to thank you all for your support as the game has continued to grow across the continent. The Calling main event will provide players with a chance to warm up for Lille, featuring two days of hybrid play across Uprising draft and Classic Constructed. Friday will feature the European Champions' Battle, a special invitation only event will feature a $5,000 US prize pool and is free to enter for any European player who made the Top 8 of a Calling event, 2021 Nationals or 2022 Battle Hardened.

We'll also be running events through the weekend for players to try out the new European language product including;

  • HP1 Constructed: Compete with your new HP1 cards in this fun constructed event for new players who have recently joined the community. If you're looking for some deck ideas, you may want to check out some of these decklists from back in the days of WTR/ARC/CRU constructed.
  • HP1 Team Sealed: Three players, 24 packs in your choice of English, French, German, Italian or Spanish HP1. Choose your favourite heroes, build three decks and and take on opposing teams in this new and exciting format!

Tickets for Utrecht will be going on sale soon; we're thrilled to finally be able to host this event and look forward to seeing you there on the road to Lille!

Calling Singapore

Over the past 18 months, South East Asia has established itself as one of the most intense competitive Flesh and Blood environments in the world. The leaderboards consistently feature players from across the region at the top of the standings, and casual Sunday Skirmish events have featured Top 8s with over 8,000 XP between them. Singapore was the only country in the world to have their National Championships cancelled due to lockdowns, so we're very happy to announce today that the Calling will be coming to Singapore on August 20-21.

Battle with the best in Asia in one of the region's biggest Flesh and Blood hubs, or warm up on the way through to the Pro Tour.
