Flesh and Blood: Omens of the Third Age Pre-Release

The Storm Is Coming. Answer the Call.

Ancient omens illuminate the skies of Rathe, foreboding a darkness not seen since the Third Age. Neutral Ground Gaming invites you to be among the first to crack open Omens of the Third Age and forge your fate in our Pre-Release Sealed event. The storm is building — will you harness its power, or be swept away?

Omens of the Third Age is Flesh and Blood's electrifying new standalone booster set, centered on three Lightning heroes: Aurora (Runeblade), Oscilio (Wizard), and Zyggy Starlight — the world's first Lightning Illusionist. These heroes and their rivals all interact with a brand-new token mechanic: Lightning Flow. Create it, destroy it, weaponize it. Booster Draft and Sealed Deck gameplay revolves around generating and sacrificing Lightning Flow tokens in a high-voltage battle of storms, while the new Omens of Arcana Macro adds another layer of strategic depth unique to the Limited format.

Open your Pre-Release Kit, build your deck on the spot, and discover what the Third Age has in store. Whether you channel the relentless tempo of Aurora, the mind-bending tricks of Zyggy, or the controlled fury of Oscilio, this is your first chance to experience the set before anyone else. Read the omens. Build your deck. Survive the storm. In Neutral Ground fashion, we'll be grillin' (weather permitting), sharing stories over snacks and refreshments provided all day.
