The Ethosphere

The Earlyverse Ethosphere is an interconnected ethos equation, bringing clarity and order to confusion and disorder. The Ethosphere categorizes Earlyans and Mischievents based on the singular or multiple Ethos that they are made of. Each category comes with its own unique style of magic and mischief that describes how Earlyans and Mischievents interact with each other and the planets they are trying to culturevate or deculturevate.

The Ethosphere also helps Earlyverse and Mischieverse players with deck building. For example, some players may want to try and control the gameplay through protection while others may want to focus on boosting and rearranging to add more speed and confusion to the game.

The beauty of the Ethosphere is it’s a guide that helps you mix and match however you’d like! We encourage you to try different styles of gameplay with varying levels of mischief and magic.

Below you can find a visual/graphical representation of the Ethosphere and a chart that explains the gameplay style and goals of each Ethosphere combination.

Deck Types by Ethosphere Gameplay Style

<aside> 💡

(De)Culturevation Decks: If your deck has 30 or more Element symbols in it, it is considered a Culturevation or DeCulturevation deck.

Ethosphere Deck Types: If your deck has 10 or more symbols of any one ethos/color, then it is considered that type of ethosphere deck. (E.g. If a deck as 10 purple symbols, 14 blue symbols, 9 green symbols, 5 grey symbols, 3 pink symbols, and 18 yellow symbols, it’s a blue & purple Flux Rush deck. Count number of symbols in the top right corner of cards.)
