Tell us about your guild. What sort of activities do you focus on?

We participate in every type of content Albion has to offer. Our daily activities include all forms of PvE (Avalonian Dungeons, Group Dungeons, Static Raids) and PvP (large-scale ZvZ, small-scale skirmishes, ganking, and objective-based roaming).

Where is your guild primarily located in the Outlands?

Martlock / Martlock Black Zone.

Do you have any rivalries or ongoing quarrels with other guilds?

All the guilds we've fought so far have disbanded, so at the moment, we have no remaining enemies.

What are some of your most memorable battles or activities?

A recent memorable win was the 1v2 battle against SIX and SENT. SIX had gained enough strength to remove other guilds from territories they wanted, but they underestimated us. They tried to take our homeland, even calling SENT for backup, but it wasn’t enough. They didn’t just lose the war – they were pushed back to their territory and eventually lost it altogether:

Another important moment for us was the fight that fixed our reputation. Bober, a #1 ranked guild, used to call us “Scourge of Noobs”  until we pulled off a full wipe against them. Their trash talk became our motivation. Everyone expected us to lose, especially since they were dominating the server, but this became a historic moment for us. We didn’t just surprise them, the AlbionTV casters gave us recognition as well. It was a proud moment for our guild.

What does your guild do for fun?

We celebrate our victories with giveaways and memorable content. But more than that, we’re like a family. We spend time together outside of Albion, playing other games as well. We're building not just a gaming community, but a well-rounded social environment.

What is your guild's approach to the game?

Our focus is having fun while maintaining a healthy competitive mindset. We like to win, but we never forget to enjoy the game.

What are your goals for the future?

As an English and Turkish-speaking community, our ultimate goal is to reach the top and become the number one guild on the Europe server.

Smallscale Cup: The Results Are In



After a week of fierce castle clashes and high-pressure brawls, the Smallscale Cup has reached its conclusion. One team stood tall at the end, breaking through enemy lines and holding strong under pressure to claim the title.

Congratulations to Clean Kill, the champions of the second edition of the Smallscale Cup! Across a grueling finale, Clean Kill proved their strength in both offense and defense, swiftly adapting to every shift and securing the advantage where it mattered most. They take home 200 million Silver and 30 days of Premium per player. Ebanfall delivered an unforgettable performance of their own, putting in a strong showing throughout the tournament and earning 7 days of Premium for their efforts.

Here’s how the tournament played out:



From coordinated attacks to last-second nail-biters, this tournament showed just how far tight-knit teams can go with the right calls and synergy. Relive the best castle clashes on the Smallscale Cup channel, and keep an eye on their Discord for information on upcoming community tournaments.
