🎤 Battle of the Bards Competition 🎶
The Musical Melee Mailbox has officially launched — and with it comes a whole new way to celebrate Munzee’s 14th Birthday! Players who join in will not only enjoy 31 days of epic cards and a brand-new Widdl Bard, but they’ll also gain access to a fierce new team-based competition: the Battle of the Bards! If you enjoyed the clash of titans in our ROB vs SMS competition, you’re going to love this amped-up birthday battle! Instead of two rival factions, this musical showdown features four battling bands, each vying to claim the crown through skillful card deployment, strategic captures, and nonstop teamwork.
Whether you’re shredding solos, banging drums, or deploying cards like setlists, every action will help push your band toward victory. And here’s the best part — all four teams will earn rewards just for participating! Of course, only one band will take home the top spot and unlock exclusive winner’s prizes and a commemorative badge! Want in on the action? All you need to do is purchase a Musical Melee Mailbox and deploy it! You’ll be randomly sorted into a band of bardic battlers and ready to rock when the competition begins July 1st! You’ll be able to track your team’s progress on the leaderboard from CuppaZee once it kicks off here: https://web.cuppazee.com/bards
Read on to learn how it works, what earns points, and how your team can take the stage and steal the spotlight!
🎸 Meet the Team Bands 🎭
They’ve tuned their instruments, painted their banners, and sharpened their solos — now it’s time to reveal the four mighty musical factions battling for bardic glory! Whether you’re drawn to thunderous riffs, cosmic beats, enchanted melodies, or highland howls, there’s a band for every bard.
All Musical Melee Mailbox owners will be randomly sorted into teams and receive temporary Player Titles by July 1st at 12:00 MHQ! Who will you fight for?
- Crimson Chalice — Enchanted troubadours of the enchanted forest, blending fairy-tale harmonies with Renaissance flair. Their show might look like a storybook — but their lute solos are pure legend.
- Star Sirens — Glam-rocking aliens with otherworldly fashion and synth-infused magic. This intergalactic ensemble dazzles with stage presence and shreds across galaxies with star-powered precision. Sparkles guaranteed.
- The AXEidents — Dwarven metalheads with axes in hand and amps at max, this band lives for the loudest battle cries and heaviest riffs. If you like your solos scorching and your volume up to 11, you’re in the right pit. GWWAAAAH!!
- Storm Bound — Viking virtuosos who ride lightning and command the waves with storm-forged licks and electric rhythms. Honor, harmony, and a bit of thunder in every track — they’re the eye of the storm!
🎤 Battle of the Bards 🎶
The curtain rises on the ultimate musical melee showdown! The Battle of the Bards officially kicks off on Tuesday, July 1st at 12:00 MHQ and rocks on until Thursday, July 31st at 23:59 MHQ. During this time, players will earn points for their team by deploying and capturing Musical Melee Mailbox cards — with each card color tied to a specific band. That’s right, your every move on the map helps your band climb the charts (and the competition leaderboard)!
As a reminder, all 31 cards will be delivered at once on July 1st, giving you the power to plan ahead! Coordinate with your bandmates, deploy near busy events, and watch your team’s score soar. Strategic plays are the name of the game — so don’t just cap randomly, cap with purpose! Each card is worth a different number of competition points below:
