Roll of Honor: Oldhim, Grandfather of Eternity

Jul 13, 2023 Legend Story Studios

Rathe had changed.

A daring Rosetta… An energetic wayfarer… A fearless soldier… A charismatic showman… A charming diplomat… A curious Illusionist… A beacon of victory…

Oldhim had encountered many adventurous heroes since thawing out from his icy slumber, and he had found himself fighting alongside these new allies with a refreshed vigor he hadn’t felt for thousands of years. He admired their courage, their resolve, their unwavering passion to stand up for what was right. But none of them were prepared for what was to come.

The frosty giant could sense restlessness in the air. The faint stench of the Old Ones lingering on every breath of wind, glimpses of archaic power in every ripple of water, whispers of ancient prophecy rustling with every leaf. The rising tide of darkness churning through their lands was only the beginning.

He had raised his trusty hammer and mighty shield time and time again, but Oldhim could sense his strength dissolving piece by piece like flecks of snow in the early spring. The steadfast Guardian had stood his ground for as long as he could remember, but now eternity seemed fleeting. Oldhim knew the path forward was to sow the seeds of tomorrow among this new generation of heroes, imparting the centuries of wisdom he had accumulated, so that they would one day be ready.

It was all up to them now, the fate of the world rested heavy upon their shoulders.

Debuting in Tales of Aria on September 24th 2021, Oldhim challenged the heroes of Flesh and Blood like never before, testing their skills and their resolve to the absolute limit. The iconic duo of Crown of Seeds, Rampart of the Ram's Head, and the several defensive tools at his disposal meant that you couldn't just throw your hand at him every turn and expect to win. Players needed a highly specific gameplan, an endgame strategy that required skill, patience, and foresight to execute.

Oldhim remained an icy pillar of the Classic Constructed metagame for years, even when backed into a corner by Illusionists, Wizards, or even other Guardians, he was always there, threatening to run your deck into the ground if you didn't have some sort of backup plan in the sideboard. Winning a game against Oldhim was a unique achievement in of itself, a rewarding experience after a lengthy battle.

Oldhim, Grandfather of Eternity officially reached Living Legend status in Classic Constructed on July 3rd 2023. Congratulations to all the players who rallied alongside him in his everlasting fight against the Old Ones. You have stood the test of time and your names have been marked down in our Roll of Honor for all eternity!
