The First Chaos Agents World International Championship at Gen Con 2024

During the week of July 29th, the Popularium team showcased Chaos Agents at Gen Con 2024. We hosted two tables filled with laptops, running teaching matches and tournaments throughout the weekend. Our booths were buzzing with activity, with every machine occupied by eager new players testing out Chaos Agents. Those who signed up to play were fast-tracked to become playtesters in the upcoming Chaos Agents Alpha, adding more than 100 new recruits to our ranks!

The teaching sessions were a resounding success, leading to thrilling Bronze and Silver Tournaments with remarkable turnouts. The excitement peaked on our final day at Gen Con, where we had a full house for the final Silver Tournaments of the Qualifiers Series. It was inspiring to see Pre-Alpha playtesters and Gen Con players come together to compete for the title of the world’s first Chaos Agents Champion.

After the tournaments at Gen Con, the Popularium team hosted the World Finals at Sandbox VR in the Bottle District of Indianapolis. Qualifiers from Gen Con and our online qualifiers gathered for a final showdown in front of a packed house, all seeking glory in the Championships. The competition was fierce, but in the end, only three could claim victory. Our very own Andrew_Gross dominated two of the three win conditions, winning both Brawlmaster and Survivalist, while the final victor was a newcomer straight from Gen Con, Master Tyler, bringing home the Shardmaster win condition.

Witnessing Chaos Agents played live in a room full of competitive talent was an unforgettable experience, especially seeing our dedicated playtesters showcase their hard-earned skills. Thank you to everyone who participated in the qualifiers and Championship, making this milestone a truly special moment in our history!
