MetaZoo has partnered with the skateboarding company Revive. They released their first product. It was focused around their first set, Cryptid Nation. The print run is 2,000 boxes. Each box contained one redeemable promo card and one non-redeemable promo card. For the redeemable card, you could scratch off, enter your code, and get a skateboard deck from Revive. You can find more information about MetaZoo X Revive here. Once this dropped for sale, there was tons of excitement through MetaZoo’s Discord. The product only lasted about 27 mins.

The next drop with Revive was MetaZoo’s 2nd core set, NightFall. The print run was the same. It was released on Friday the 13th. This time the product lasted only 100 seconds. There was so much excitement from the first set people wanted to get their hands on their decks and cards. The photos of people’s decks came rushing in on the main discord, and I believe this generated more excitement. I think the market afterward could have also played a part in more excitement.

The art on each deck is fantastic and fits the skateboarding world. I used to skateboard when I was in middle school through high school. I used to seek out cool-looking art on decks. I would ride them and, unfortunately, end up breaking them. I still would put them on my wall, damaged or not. It was kind of my battleground growing up. I remember as a kid loving Powells Angel boy, Element, Darkstar, or even Girl. With MetaZoo’s designs, I think the little kid in me would have sought one of these boards.

Let us move to the upcoming Caster’s Cup. The Casters Cup will be located in the Dallas Forth Worth area. You can find out more information about it here and from MetaZoo here. The more details we learn about the Caster’s Cup, the more excited everyone has around the community.

A few things we have learned are that they will have promo packs for attendees of Collect-a-Con, Staff, and Players. These packs will contain full holo and stamped cards of previous common, uncommon, and rare cards from Cryptid Nation, Nightfall. They will also include a play MetaZoo Network logo on the bottom. This alone, I think, will build lots of excitement for people who are just attending, staffing, and playing in the tournament.

 

There will be multiple different jerseys that will be beastie-themed. This is another item that will generate tons of excitement while attending the tournament. These jerseys will have their own promo card.

We also have set pieces that have been created for the blitz portion of the tournament. These set pieces will be rotating. As you can see, this one is of a boat shack? They also will have this huge blown-up Mothman.

With the over $250+ prize pool, the promo packs, the exclusive merch sold at their booth, the amazing-looking set pieces, and the number of players traveling worldwide to come to 1 place to experience MetaZoo. MetaZoo will stream this event. With this new blitz format, I think this is going to be wildly entertaining, not just for those at the event but for anyone watching on the streams. This is reviving the love for competitive play.

]]> In just a week, we have had multiple amazing announcements from MetaZoo. I want to start off by saying it is the little things that MetaZoo does that really puts them ahead of the game in the TCG world. They pay attention to little finer details that really express who they are and what they represent. Let’s see just a few examples.

Take these poker chips, for example. They take the time to create each individual chip artwork for each beastie. These alone will be treasured by those who might want to play professionally at a WPT, with their friends, or even just framed and collected on a shelf in your room.

Here is a post-Andy (Chaos Crystal Enthusiast) shared. We will find out what this is at a later date. I just wanted to point out that this is what really stands out in why MetaZoo pays attention to the little details. It’s also the community involvement in trying to figure out what this is that makes following along MetaZoo’s Journey fun and unique. So what do you think this is? We have heard some pretty wild out there responses (Dodge Ball, Car Skin, Dbrand skin for your laptop, a toilet seat).

These 2 are for the Collect a Con Dallas convention coming up May 28th, 29th and also for the Casters Cup (The first huge MetaZoo tournament with over $250k+ prize pool). You can learn more about this here.

The First image is of a players badge which is holographic. This is probably the coolest badges I have seen and I have a nice collection of these. The 2nd is a label for the water bottle that will be sold at CaC. These 2 are another example of just the little things go a long way and they continue to show how detailed, and passionate MetaZoo is in their products.

This concludes this weeks article on a few of the announcements MetaZoo has shared with us. Please stay tuned weekly where I share what MetaZoo has next for us. If you have any questions or even want to just say “Hi”. You can follow me on Twitter.

That way groups without a LGS can still host their own official metazoo events — Flork

    Our team is all star. I think we are doing a great job.

  • Ted | TedsBasement.com — will MetaZoo ever go IPO?

    2023

  • spidysweb87 — Do you feel NFTs aren’t established enough for the brand to fully back? It feels like there’s a lot of controversy around the idea and it could damage the brand if they go belly up.

    yes, US companies not to keen on the open ended, make movies while the story is being finished kind of thing after GOT

    Some things are exclusive and that’s okay

  • hashtagnotafurry — I am an officer in Orlando. I went to collectacon and I was wondering if metazoo or the convention center planned/hired security, as it was fairly bottom tier.

    On Tuesday, February 22, 2022 at 11:01am EST, MetaZoo Games founder Michael Waddell started up another MetaZoo Hour on the official MetaZoo Discord server. There were a total of 103 MetaZoo related questions & 15 personal/unrelated questions that were asked by members of the MetaZoo Discord community, and the answers all came directly from Michael Waddell himself; unless otherwise stated.
    If you’d rather have the hour read out to you so that you can multi-task, or whatever the reason may be, MetaZoo HQ’s Video Partner Fizggig🕊 did exactly that right here! Be sure to check it out and show your support if you can!
    As always, we’ll start off with the MetaZoo-related questions first, in the order that they were received, and then move onto the personal questions afterward. Try searching for things such as “Wilderness” or “Kickstarter” to narrow-down the results. It all works dynamically. 🙂

    Michael Waddell at 11:01am EST: @everyone MetaZoo Hour begins now! Ask me anything for the next hour in 📝-metazoo-chat !

    MetaZoo Questions

  • Hey Mike, have you already addressed the reasoning behind retiring your signature? As someone who loves my signed kickstarter card, I'm curious 🙂

    going to be doing something fun with them 😛

  • Can there be a mail in contest for a MW signature for us international peeps? Would love a signed card but can't make it to the US in person

    Make sure you’re watching our streams during collect-a-con. 🙂 — @Chaos Crystal Enthusiast

  • wen Topps Sapphire MZ cards???

    Winter 2022

    Locals in your area, call now!!

  • Did you come up with mechanics of MetaZoo? If not who’s idea was the gameplay side?

    In the beginning there was just me, but now we have an awesome R&D team run by @Kevin C. and a bunch of awesome playtesters

  • @MetaZoo Do you think that the metazoo nfts are good for the game as a whole considering how they take up resources and time but only benefit a very small portion of the playerbase and unlike chase cards do not bring any incentive to the game or for people to crack packs

    Not everything has to be for everyone. MetaZoo is growing in complexity, as is its fanbase.

  • What was the decision to take sleeves out of the theme decks? I remember my kickstarter theme deck having them

    So we could fit booster packs

  • When will we know who got the 30 art cards in kickstarter?

    No

  • How enjoyable has this all been? Has this been harder than you’ve expected?

    Harder? Yes. Very enjoyable though. This is my life

  • When you release new NFTs will they have the same ability to link and get access to products early as well as and/or get access to the blue sticker on Booster Boxes? If not will there be any special real life benefit with MetaZoo product etc.. to owning any new NFTs upon release?

  • Any other last minute surprises for KS? Anything to be revealed after campaign ends?

    Every time we reveal something, seems like people get upset haha

  • @MetaZoo You've stated in the past that you don't want any meta defining cards to be locked behind a paywall. With that in mind and considering the current state of the meta, is it possible we could see cards moved off the reserved list like New Year New Beginnings, Loveland Mailman or First Anniversary Celebration? Or is it more likely to get cards like a "2nd anniversary celebration, Squonk Mailman, etc?"

    Every single card is behind a paywall, because no cards are free. The reserve list is intentional.

  • One point of constructive criticism i would like to state is about the Walmart boxes. I think putting chase pulls in them could deter the original use of them (get it in more hands/new hands). Because of the box toppers in them, they are being more sought after by scalpers and flippers than new players. I think that could hurt its intentions. Just my two cents on them that i am seeing.

    Had no idea they were putting boxtoppers in them

  • What is the Walmart box print run @MetaZoo

    1 billion
