The first half of Season 33 has been anything but predictable. One server has seen a years-long power finally collapse, another has been consumed by one of its biggest wars in recent memory, while a third has produced a surprisingly one-sided race.
Let's take a look at the state of each server as the mid-season Invasion Day arrives and double scoring begins:
- Albion Europe: Season 33 in Europe has revolved around a single conflict. Since the off-season, the OMW and BAIZ coalitions have fought almost without pause for control of the Outlands. The numbers alone tell the story: more than 69,000 kills, over 210 billion Silver worth of equipment destroyed, and more than 6,300 players involved in the fighting so far.
Throughout the off-season, Iron Dome led BAIZ in establishing footholds while attempting to break OMW's defensive network. Although key Hideouts survived repeated assaults, BAIZ steadily expanded its influence and, once the season began, shifted its attention to territory control. Since then, both coalitions have fought over every available source of Season Points, from Castles, Power Cores, and Vortexes to the opportunities created by the Keeper Uprising, with neither side willing to give an inch.
Iron Dome currently hold a lead of roughly 60,000 Season Points, but that advantage has gradually narrowed over the past week. With double scoring about to begin and territories becoming even more valuable, the outcome of this war remains far from decided. - Albion Americas: After the conclusion of last season's major conflict, the server has entered a much calmer period. Large-scale territorial warfare has been limited, allowing Upside to focus on consistently securing season objectives while the rest of the field struggles to keep pace.
That strategy has paid off. Upside currently lead the rankings with around 450,000 Season Points, holding an advantage of roughly 300,000 points over second place. Unless a new war erupts during the second half of the season, they appear firmly on course to claim the Season 33 title. - Albion Asia: It’s time for a new era. After years of dominance, Fuckcall and the PLAC coalition have finally been overthrown by The Flying Dutchman and their allies following weeks of fighting that began during the off-season.
As the campaign progressed, coalition forces dismantled PLAC's position across the Outlands, destroying Hideouts, capturing key territories, and steadily wearing down their opponents' ability to resist. By the time the season was underway, the balance of power had shifted decisively, bringing an end to one of Albion Asia's longest-standing reigns. The Flying Dutchman are now on course for their first-ever Guild Season victory. Whether this marks the beginning of a more competitive future for the server remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Albion Asia has a new power at the top.
