This week, we’re living out that tale as old as time, it’s Beauties and Beasts week! Expect the stunning and the ghastly as we bring you new cards and packs that will either make you swoon or straight up pass out. We do promise there will be no talking clocks or singing candelabra but you’re still invited to “Be Our Guest.”
To start the week off, we’ve got the frightfully good The Beast pack at 09:00 UTC with a terrifying haul of gems, coins and cards. Then, jumpstart your decks with this week’s League pack when it joins us at 09:00 UTC with cards from Cute Cats, Venomous Creatures or Constellations.
Today we’re celebrating Labor Day with a FREE Knights of Labor card at 09:00 UTC. One of the first large-scale union movements, this will, when played, give your Shake Up The System cards in hand +15 Power, and reduce their energy cost by -1 until played when returned to the deck.
The usual Monday favorite - the Epic Mondays pack hits the store at 12:00 UTC with a brand new Under the Microscope card, the Nematode. This pesky little parasite is everywhere, and will, when drawn, give all cards in both players' hands -1 Energy and +10 Power for the turn, but only if your deck contains all 7 albums. (That’s right - we’ve gone full Rainbow!)
From 15:00 UTC, you can find the Gorgeous Graphic Design card, Grotesque, in the Arts Finder. In this case, we’re not talking about how you’d describe horrible little goblins and the like but rather the 16th Century architecture and design movement in Italy. Granted, it does still include weird little guys and monsters and things so it’s sort of a Beauty AND a Beast. Predictably, it’s only worth playing if your deck contains Gargoyle.
To finish the day off, those slippery Cephalopods will be swimming into the store from 17:00 UTC, so make sure you get your tentacles on those cards!
As always, you can find this week’s League Rules below. Good luck! We’re all counting on you!

LEAGUE RULES
-----------------------
It’s all to play for this week with a Starting Energy of 25, an Energy per Turn of 21, an Energy Cap of 35 and Minimum Energy of 5 - it’s time to bring out those cards that cost that little bit more!
Venomous Creatures gets a massive +80 Power boost so will certainly see some play, especially with Spider buffs from Wolf Spider, Spider-Tailed Horned Viper and Jorogumo!
Constellations get +70 Power, which plays very nicely with Ptolemy and Marbled Newt, while CUE’s best collection Cute Cats gets +60 Power, so try out Savannah Cat to give your Common and Rares a whole lot of love.
Norse Mythology gets +50 Power this week, Vicious Vikings gets +45 and Machines of War get +40!
