Flesh & Blood

Flesh & Blood is a trading card game published by Legend Story Studios (LSS), an independent design studio based in Auckland, New Zealand. History Prior to first booster set release Flesh and Blood began development seven years before its official release, well before the studio was officially founded or the game had a name. In December 2018, when the game was officially announced for the first time, Legend Story Studios was a team of six operating out of a studio apartment. On August 31, 2019, 120 players gathered for the Ira World Premiere event at a game store in Auckland, New Zealand. The event was played with Ira Welcome Decks. The Ira Welcome Deck was specifically designed to be a new player's first play experience and continues to be used in game stores to teach new players the basics of Flesh & Blood. First booster set release On October 11, 2019, Legend Story Studios released the first expansion set of Flesh & Blood, Welcome to Rathe, in stores across the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. Welcome to Rathe was distributed direct from the studio to local game stores, with a team that, at the time, consisted of just seven employees. Taking place on 27 October, The Calling: Auckland was the first premier event in Flesh and Blood history.
