Conqueror's Blade News

Sign-ups for 2024's Conqueror's Blade League, a tournament where the top Conqueror's Blade players from all around the world clash, are in hot swing! Create a squad and sign up while you can!

[h2]Latest Information + Q&A[/h2]

1. Considering the recent changes to the Ranked Battles schedule along with the server transfers, we've decided to give everyone a bit more time to finalize their squads. Which is why we're extending the sign-ups to July 7th. The Regional Qualifiers Phase remains unaffected.

2. Characters affected by the server transfers will be removed from their squads, even if previously signed up. This means that these players will have to rejoin their squads again following the transfers.

3. Is it possible to create and sign up with squad members from different regions? Such as having players from both the Mainland China servers and Asia Pacific servers in a squad, or players from Jiulongzhuri and Tianceshangjiang?
[Asia Pacific] Squads can contain players from all Asia Pacific servers (except for Espada Forest).
[Mainland China Server] Players from the Jiulongzhuri, Kaijiangtuoyu and Weijiahainei servers may be in the same squad.
[Mainland China Server] Players from the Tianceshangjiang and Xianfengjingji servers may be in the same squad.
Players from the [Mainland China Server] may not group up with players from the [Asia Pacific] servers.

4. Can I compete for a squad on the Mainland China servers and a squad from the Asia Pacific servers?
No, you may not. Each player may only sign up with and play one character. Multiple sign-ups are strictly forbidden.

5. If you have any other questions regarding CBL, contact us at .

[h3]Dear Warlords,[/h3]

The server ecosystem of “Conqueror's Blade” has entered a new era. To ensure that all Warlords have a smooth experience in various in-game activities, the schedules for [Ranked Battles] and [Territory Wars] will be adjusted accordingly, along with the star requirements for ranking up in [Ranked Battles].

[h3]1. [Territory War] Adjustments[/h3]

[Formal Servers] and [Growth Servers]:

• To ensure that houses have adequate time to level up and accumulate Prestige at the start of the new season, the first [Territory War] for all formal and growth servers will take place on June 25th (Tuesday). On June 22nd (Saturday), we will hold [Military Exercise] to help Warlords become familiar with the territory war battlefield of this new season.
  

[Newbie Servers]:

• To give new players sufficient growth time, the first [Territory War] for newbie servers will take place on June 29th (Saturday). No [Territory Wars] or [Military Exercise] will be scheduled on June 22nd (Saturday) or June 25th (Tuesday).
  

The final [Territory War] before the season's end will be on August 31st (Saturday). On September 3rd (Tuesday), [Military Exercise] will be available on all servers.

The settlement time for the territory war rewards for this season is scheduled for September 5th (Thursday). After the reward settlement and before the next season launch, Territory War will continue to be available every Tuesday and Saturday on all servers.


[h3]2. [Ranked Battles] Adjustments[/h3]

In previous seasons, the extensive daily availability of [Ranked Battles] led to player fatigue and longer queue times during off-peak periods. Additionally, queueing in off-peak period made it easier for unfair play, affecting the integrity of [Ranked Battles].

The high star requirement for ranking up also caused boredom and fatigue in the mid to late season for many warlords.

To allow more players to enjoy high-quality matches without pressure and to better manage their playtime, we are adjusting the [Ranked Battles] time slots and star requirements:

• The time slot for [Ranked Battles] will be more concentrated on the daily peak hours of players to enhance match quality.
  
• Increase the number of days per week that players can access Ranked Battles to accommodate different play schedules.
  
• Reducing the overall time required to rank up and earn rewards, making it less stressful.
  

This is a new attempt, and we will keep monitoring the overall situation during the season and make timely adjustments. Thank you for your attention and participation in [Ranked Battles]!

[h2]1) Season Units[/h2]

[h3]Psiloi Slingers (3 Stars)[/h3]



Back Story

"The island of Rhodes, located on the Aegean Sea, with its important strategic position, has always been the object of ambition for aspiring nations. Throughout its long history of resisting foreign invasions, the resilient and intelligent residents of Rhodes have developed a unique form of warfare, the art of stone throwing: with just a pile of rocks and a roughly made sling, farmers, craftsmen, and even frail shepherds can transform into powerful warriors capable of killing enemies from hundreds of feet away in wars.

Initially, the noble generals and kings looked down upon this "peasant" strategy. Only the Conqueror recognized the potential of this tactic. He incorporated the stone-throwers of Rhodes into his army. The great battle that took place in Chaeronea proved the wisdom of the king. In this ultimate battle between Macedonia and Persia, the stone-throwers invoked the name of the sun god, hurling a myriad of stones towards the enemy. The proud elite Immortals of the Persian Empire found themselves cornered and ultimately defeated by this army composed of commoners. After the war, the Conqueror collectively bestowed upon this legion the title of heroes. In an era where lineage meant everything, they, with humble origins, became the heroes of a great conquering age."

Battle Style

They are the stone-throwers from Rhodes, dressed simply in coarse cloth and straw hats, carrying a bag of stones, wielding shields and slingshots. Their primary attack method is stone-throwing, using slingshots to hurl stones with force. This technique allows them to inflict significant armor-piercing damage at close to medium range, with a chance to stun enemy units. Moreover, the resilient and clever stone-throwers of Rhodes are well-versed in the art of stone-throwing, able to turn nearby pebbles into weapons at any moment to replenish their ammunition.

Unit Characteristics:

• Able to replenish ammo at anywhere. Stuns enemies from afar and deals high burst damage when close.
  

Skills:：

• Skill 1: Attack Area (Begins firing in the designated area.)
  
• Skill 2: Say "Cheese" (Shakes their slingshots and fires in unison, dealing greater damage than normal attacks with a higher chance to stun.)
  
• Skill 3: Quarry (Squats down to quarry and replenish ammo.)
  

[h3]Companion Cavalry (4 Stars)[/h3]



Back Story

"By the side of the kings of Macedonia often stand guards known as "Companions," noble-born and fiercely loyal. The kings view them not just as subordinates, but as brothers-in-arms. Each "Companion" of a Macedonian king will follow their king anywhere, until the king passes or the last drop of blood is shed.

The majority of the "Companion" cavalry are born of nobility, hence they often bear the finest equipment: riding swift steeds, wielding the lethal lance, and resorting to sharp swords once their lances are broken in combat. Under the banner of the conquering king, these units become an unparalleled elite force, playing a pivotal role on the battlefield. Poets have likened the king's tactics to a "hammer and anvil": if the infantry units holding the line in a tug-of-war with the enemy are the "anvil," the Companion cavalry are the "hammer," swooping in to exploit enemies' weaknesses and shattering them in a single charge. After several rounds of hammer strikes, even the mightiest of foes will crumble. In the grand Eastern conquest, this legion has accompanied the conquering king all the way to the ends of the world, beyond the farthest reaches of the sea."

Battle Style

They are the most loyal companions of Alexander, playing a crucial role in his tactics. Often launching flank attacks on enemy formations with the king, they draw immense inspiration simply by being by his side, enhancing their combat abilities significantly.
he Companions Cavalry are also highly skilled in guerrilla tactics, utilizing dual weapons to adapt to various battle scenarios. Their exceptional flexibility allows them to engage at the right moment, creating significant advantages for their side with their high burst damage.

Unit Characteristics:

• A highly mobile light cavalry with low defense.
  
• Works great when striking with the hero in guerilla-like attacks.
  
• Deals sustained damage while using their short swords and draws close to the hero, waiting for the opportune moment to strike.
  

Skills

Skills Spear:

• Skill 1: Gale Strike (Revolves their spears and stabs at the enemy, dealing high damage.)
  
• Skill 2: Storm Pound (Leaps from their mounts and strikes with their spears from the air. May knock enemy units down.)
  

Short Sword:

• Skill 1: Zephyr Blade (Remains on guard, striking at anyone who draws close to the hero.)
  

[h3]Sunward Phalanx (5 Stars)[/h3]



Back Story

"The father of the Conqueror, the former ruler of Macedonia, created a new legionary tactic, known as the Macedonian phalanx: warriors clad in heavy armor, wielding long spears, formed an unstoppable phalanx and advanced. The Conqueror further elevated this legionary tactic to its pinnacle: he commissioned the creation of spears longer than people of that time could imagine. When warriors equipped with these long spears formed their lines and pointed their spearheads towards the enemy, the very nature of war was fundamentally altered. War ceased to be a game of individual valor and became a unified front of thousands. The clash transformed, inexorably consuming and dispersing the enemy like scattered troops and mercenaries. Stirring battle cries turned into subdued commands, as even the most skilled and valiant warriors found attacking such a formation akin to striking a mountain or the vast sea.
This highly effective strategy aided the Conqueror in vanquishing all his foes. On the battlefield, his units stood like a silent mountain, slowly advancing towards the enemy. The figure of the emperor before the formation thus became immensely towering, bowing seemingly as the sole choice to this great monarch."

Battle Style

Wearing the iconic style helmets, linen cuirasses, and leather kilts, the finest warriors of Macedonia wielded spears of extraordinary length, their arms secured by large round shields, advancing in an indomitable phalanx formation. Shielded by their round shields, they stood fearless against attacks from afar. Following the king's command, they could adopt the phalanx formation, moving steadily back and forth with their long spears, continuously compressing the enemy's lines.

Unit Characteristics:

• Through skillful manipulation of the distance from the enemy, Macedonia could evade harm while seizing the opportune moment on the ever-changing battlefield, swiftly penetrating for the kill!
  

Skills

Skill 1：

• Imperial Spears (The Sunward Phalanx props their spears up and begins to Brace.)
  
• Fierce Advance (The Sunward Phalanx advances with their spears held high. You may choose the direction in which they advance.)
  

Skill 2：

• Ares' Flurry (The Sunward Phalanx strikes forward multiple times.)
