History
Rising Sun was founded by competent leaders and gaming enthusiasts with years of experience from previous guilds. Sharing a common vision of helping others to improve and succeed, it was shortly joined by like-minded seasoned veterans and new players with potential. Together, a solid foundation of a friendly, professional, and active community of gamers was formed.
We want to create a caring and warm gaming guild where all of its members can call their home. Our vision is to create a place where everyone can freely share their ideas and knowledge, a place where the same rules apply to everyone, and a place free from altercations amongst its members. Therefore, we are proud to officially announce the formation of Rising Sun and open our doors to players interested in joining our guild. We highly value activity, effort and friendship so that we can nurture the next generation of expert players, tournament winners, and leaders.
Our energy, passion, and vision will ensure that Rising Sun shines brightly in the wider Shadow Era community.

Who we are
Rising Sun is a straightforward, peaceful environment to play Shadow Era and explore every element of the game. We promote a friendly, casual atmosphere where all its members are expected to participate in guild discussions on a regular basis. We believe strongly in the open exchange of ideas, foster constructive criticism, intense deck testing, analyzing the meta, and freely share our combined knowledge with others in the guild.
New players are more than welcome to join us - if you are willing to learn, Rising Sun is an excellent place to do so. We believe in fair play, without cheating, hacking, or exploitation of bugs. As a guild, we strive for excellence and seek to dominate every area of competitive play, and we are constantly aspiring to improve and learn new things.
While our guild is new, most of our players have been part of the Shadow Era scene for a long time. As a matter of fact, among our ranks are some of the best, most experienced players in the game; gaming professionals (both past and present) and tournament winners at all levels of competition. While many guilds have a high degree of game knowledge, what makes us truly unique is how we choose to use that expertise.
Rising Sun is just what it sounds like, a warm, enlightened place for you to play and grow as a player. We create actual friendships based on mutual respect in our guild. We strive to continuously learn and support each other. We assist one another by participating in events that guild members host, offering advice and scouting reports on common competitors, thoroughly testing even the silliest of deck concepts that our members might come up with, and giving constructive, well thought out criticism on both design and in-game decisions making. In fact, we have a proprietary system that is proven to take a new SE player from their first starter deck to above 300 rating in a single season.
Whether you are a new or veteran player, casual or hardcore, you will certainly find a place in Rising Sun. Our highly supportive environment allows you to raise your game and deckbuilding skills to a new level. We know that by combining our great theoretical knowledge with vast tournament understanding, we have the perfect combination for any aspiring Shadow Era player who is willing to learn and improve. We provide the tools to help each individual to progress, through comprehensive training programmes, IRC, and forums.
In short, the Rising Sun was formed by great players, and in turn - forms great players.
If you want to be the best, then Rising Sun is the place for you. We look forward to learning from you as you learn from us as members of the Rising Sun.
