In this first set “Alchemazam! The Grand Arcanum”, the setting is where players are competing in a tournament of champions called The Grand Arcanum, where the victor gains a seat on the advisory board of the High Council. As the joyous festivities are celebrated, and kingdoms gather far and wide in attendance, a thick fog is rolling in as opponents will be bested as a champion shall rise. Who shall win? Will it be you?
