At Equinox, our community's passion and creativity continually inspire us.

To show our appreciation and give back to our dedicated members, we are thrilled to introduce the Musubi Program.

This initiative is our way of rewarding those who contribute significantly to the Altered TCG community, offering them unique opportunities and exclusive benefits. The Musubi Program is not about creating an elite group, but about recognizing and celebrating the remarkable efforts of our community members.

Program Benefits

Members of the Musubi Program (Musubi Ambassadors) will enjoy a range of exclusive benefits:

Digital Unlocks

Ambassadors will receive free digital unlocks of all sets released until September 2025, including "Beyond the Gates," "Expansion 1," and "Expansion 2". This unlock consists of one copy of each common, rare, and OoF rare, on release day, and won’t include promo cards nor organised play cards.

Exclusive Discord Roles & Access

Members will get an exclusive “Musubi ‘24” role on the official discord. Members will also gain access to a special Discord server where they can collaborate on exciting projects. One notable project will involve deciding and contributing to the creation of the art of six reprints of character cards of their choice from "Beyond the Gates," which will be made available to all Altered TCG account holders in September 2025. They will also contribute to their lore and flavour texts. These reprints will be available to all registered players, with one copy of each of those 6 cards in common, rare, and rare out-of-faction versions.

Categories and Awards

Each year, up to 12 members will be selected for the Musubi Program, representing six different categories in which they outstandingly contributed to the community. These categories ensure that we recognize a wide range of contributions from different parts of the world. In the event that a category does not meet its 2 winners, one extra winner could be decided for another category.

Being chosen in a category is translated as “winning the award” in a specific faction HQ.

Community members from less represented regions are also eligible for any award and may take a spot from one of the listed regions if they receive the award. Be careful though, the award is not a physical trophy that Heroes will bring to you. Believe us, you don’t want Nevenka handling you anything.

For the first year, we added a special “founder” unique spot in the Haven Award.

Here are the categories and the respective awards:

Ouroboros Awards: Fan Artists
“We create artworks and illustrations”

  • 1 EU & 1 US/CAN (if applicable)

Spindle Awards: Community Builders
“We create channels for the community to discuss, and we animate the community”

Our Commitment

The Musubi Program is our way of thanking our community members for their exceptional contributions.

We are committed to fostering a positive, inclusive environment where creativity and passion can flourish. As such, people won’t be able to win an award two years in a row. However, they will stay in the dedicated discord for them to discuss and guide newcomers in the program for the years to come.

We believe that by recognizing and supporting our community heroes, we can continue to build a vibrant and engaged Altered TCG community.

We look forward to celebrating the achievements of our Musubi Program members and can't wait to see the incredible contributions they will bring to the Altered TCG universe. Stay tuned for more updates and announcements about the program!
