About the game
The mighty Velden has come from the far north. Has this wrathful titan come to fight the forces of Draka and demons of Raxxa, or is he just another one of the mysterious Helion's puppets? The fairies say he is the one heralded by the mist guides, and they've rallied to his banner. As his forces come closer to his city of Covenant, the question looms: hero or villain? Epic Card Game: Uprising is an expansion for the Epic Card Game that's packaged in four non-random booster packs (Flames of Scarros, Kark's Edict, Velden's Wrath, and Will of Zannos), with each booster pack containing twelve new game cards and a double-sided token.
