Here you can find the challenge decks for this week!
Rules
Every week (on Monday or maybe Tuesday), a new deck will be up on this page, with a Challenge tied to it. This Challenge can be ANYTHING – check the archives for more!
You can play the Challenge Deck for a more ‘fun’ Underworlds experience. Our aim with these decks is that they all can be played in a standard Nemesis Game without breaking any rules, so all are Organized Play legal. When you win, let us know on our Discord Server for a small reward :).
For more info, check out our announcement article.
Challenge Deck for this week (Week of 23rd February): The Sniper
New deck, new Ranged attack, new range buff upgrade… many have already talked about the hypothetical 8 Range Attack and this Challenge Deck is just that! Your goal for this challenge is to not only win by glory total but also make the Range 8 Attack in your game. If you make the Range 8 attack but lose on glory total, we’ll let it slide – just show us the farthest range attack in Underworlds yet! The deck provided for this week is not required but recommended.
When you do win a game let us know on our Discord server for a reward! (pictures are much appreciated 🙂 )
Winners (as shown by our Discord server):
Past Challenge Decks:
Week of February 16th 2026
- Kamanpingers
- With the new Kamandora’s update they not only become great pingers but also great Staggerers. We cannot not honor this, so they are this week’s Challenge Deck. While the deck provided is optional, you win the challenge by playing a deck with a dedicated goal of pinging your opponent – through Staggers or pings (with Kamandora’s Slayers, obviously) . The provided deck does just that! Let the pingstorm commence!
Week of February 9th 2026
- Boring, Uninspiring Even
- Another Uranos-inspired deck where the goal of this challenge is to win a game with either Gnarlspirit Pack or The Crimson Court without inspiring! Both warbands have an ‘inspire-lite’ condition, allowing you to get a little benefit, but it’s not nearly as strong as normally inspiring. To beat this challenge, you must win a Nemesis game with Crimson Court of GSP without ever inspiring a single fighter. You do so, you lose. The deck is not set in stone – feel free to use whatever you feel is best! The attached deck is just a starting point. Good luck!
Week of February 2nd 2026
- The Deck Written in the Stars
- A Reckless Fury deck that focuses on holding? This Jaws of Itzl deck provided by URANOS provides us with a very interesting take on the ‘charge token deck’. See if you can make this deck work as well as URANOS did! This deck is inspired by the linked article.
Week of January 26th 2026
- Reparations
- Zarbag’s Gitz PnP/CtC have long been the bane of Emberguard. This challenge is for the ‘Gitz abusers’ who feel bad – play this exact PnP/CtC deck which skips arguably the strongest cards in the pairing and focuses on making the lesser used cards work! Good luck – let’s just say you will need it. This deck is inspired by Spent Glory’s Unlucky 13 Article! Check it out here.
Week of January 19th 2026
- Wurmspat Faction Deck
- First of all, massive shoutout to Uranos on Discord for this absolutely stellar idea! This week, the challenge deck is a flashback to the old Wurmspat faction deck from V1 – here it is if you are interested. ES/WnR offers a nice mix of cards to recreate this deck. To win this challenge, you must win a Nemesis game using exactly the listed deck.
Week of January 12th 2026
- Rooted In
- Win a game without moving! Pushes and teleports are allowed. Deck is recommended but not required.
