K147: Once Upon A Time in Total Battle

I only joined FoC because Peaky was there—and because, honestly, I was curious. There had been so much mystery, so many rumors circling that clan. I just wanted to see for myself what actually went on behind those closed gates.

The Fog of No Accountability

At first, it looked like business as usual. 

There was no proper chest counter. Stella insisted “the game doesn’t allow it,” but that never sat right with me. Bodkin would drop Excel sheets mid-cycle and at the end—but they always came with a malware warning, which didn’t exactly inspire confidence.

By comparison, GoD’s counters had always been clear, helpful, and even kind of fun. I still believe FoC’s “no counter” rule had less to do with game mechanics and more to do with protecting themselves after that infamous shield-drop incident.

The ancients were set at 228 to 230. The regular chest norm was 1.1B. But after all the ancients were taken down? They lowered the norm to 750M. Just like that. So everyone who had pushed and spent and pushed some more… ended up side by side with those who coasted in later, with a much easier ask. 

Then there was the Three Stack queue. People were constantly accusing others of sniping. It’s becoming a bit of a sad pattern lately—when something doesn’t go right, people rush to clan chat to assign blame. K147 was no different. It was like tension was baked into the atmosphere.

And the chat… the chat was something else entirely.

Kvost and Dimrij Donskay were always at each other’s throats. Tree, meanwhile, kept posting  sexist comments day after day. And no one stopped him. It was tolerated. That kind of energy—loud, unkind, unchecked—makes you feel like you're walking barefoot on broken glass.

A Friendship That Grew from Nothing

But even in all that noise, something good happened.

I met Tomek. He was the only sup who was consistently kind, responsive, and human. 

CMT wasn’t the official bank, but he still went out of his way to collect the silver for me and make sure it reached the right place. That small kindness meant a lot. It still does.

The Shadow That Followed

Unfortunately, the peace didn’t last. The stalker found his way to FoC, too.

If you’ve read my K105 post, you know who I’m talking about. He was part of the GoD trolls who followed me to BAD TANGO, and he hadn’t changed. Same taunting. Same toxic energy. My mistake was not telling Stella in advance not to take him in. I should have made that clear before joining.

CMT was the first person I confided in. I’m sure he passed it on to Stella. I’d planned to speak to her myself, but I wasn’t sure how she’d take it. I didn’t want her to think I was asking her to kick anyone or making drama. I just… didn’t him to talk about me in the clan chat.

CMT thought, since she [Stella] was a woman, she’d understand. For a moment, I thought maybe she did. Things calmed down briefly, and I guessed she’d had a word with him.

But it didn’t last.

When Silence Becomes Complicity

Soon, he was back at it. Mocking everything I said, throwing jabs. And Stella—she didn’t just ignore it. She encouraged it. Laughed at his insults. I remember the words: mentally ill, Mother India, beggar, dictator, and others I don’t even want to repeat. I wasn’t just hurt—I was exhausted.

So I left. An hour before Rag, with no backup plan. Not because of Stella. Not even the clan, really. Just… him. The constant shadow. The feeling that no matter where I went, he’d find a way to follow.

After I left, Stella messaged me “lol.” Then she made some sarcastic remarks about my departure, then casually suggested I go to their sub-clan. When I said no, she wanted to know where I was heading next. But honestly? I hadn’t thought that far. I just knew I needed to be somewhere else.

Drawing the Line

That’s when I made a quiet promise to myself:
From now on, I’ll speak to the recruiter first. I won’t join any clan unless I am sure he will not be accepted there. 

But even that wasn’t the end of it.

He left FoC shortly after I did—and tried to follow me again.  Then, he latched onto CMT and Maed, who had moved to BBX. When that didn’t work, he turned toward AoA.

#EpicHunterz: The House of Dragons

  The #epichunters server is Nanius’s brainchild. He invited me to join when we were in GoD Barracks together. From what I understood, he wanted to build a place where players could ask for help, share what they’d learned, and support each other. It wasn’t fancy. It wasn’t meant to be huge. Just a quiet little corner for a few friends who loved the game and wanted to get better at it. Little did he know that something meant for a handful of players would take on a life of its own and grow exponentially. I don’t think he was prepared for it either. It’s funny how people change as they grow in the game. At first, it felt like the kind of server where you’d always find someone around. Someone to answer a question, drop a tip, or just talk about trees or CP sets. Nanius was always kind — a little particular about the rules, maybe, but kind. And the whole place carried that energy too. It’s funny how people change as they grow in the game. Here is the structure of the server with ...

About Me: Queen of Chaos (and Kingdoms)

 Hi, I’m Iskra. Total Battle is more than just a game to me — it’s been a lifeline. When I was diagnosed with cancer, my world shifted overnight. I needed something — anything — to pull my mind away from the constant weight of hospitals, treatments, and the fear that quietly follows you everywhere. I first tried PUB-G because my nieces, nephews, and my daughter were all into it, but it didn’t stick. I wasn’t great at it, and every time I started over, it felt like I was losing ground. I wanted something I could build, something that could grow with me. That’s when I found Total Battle — a game that met me right where I was. It wasn’t just about fighting; it was about strategy, structure, long-term goals, and being part of a world that moved whether I was there or not. It gave me something to look forward to during long days in the hospital, through surgeries, through radiation, through recovery. The discipline I found in the game helped me find my footing in real life too. Alm...

K116: Too Good to Last

  Memories of K116: Glory, Chaos, and the Friendships That Endured A New Kingdom, A New Adventure When I teleported to K116, the kingdom had been open for just three months. Miss Witcher from K123 was in K116 under another ID (some people just love a secret life) and she put in a good word for me with John. John was ranked #15 in the Global Might rankings. He took me into his clan, MWP, even though I was just 40 million might — basically a baby with a wooden sword. Falling Down the Rabbit Hole Moving from a closed kingdom to an open one—even a freshly opened one—is like stepping into Alice in Wonderland. You’re fascinated, confused, and slightly terrified, all at the same time. In a closed kingdom, you live like a child at home with their parents: shielded, spoiled, and convinced the world is kind. Then you land in an open kingdom and it’s like getting shoved out the front door into a battlefield. Suddenly, you’re experiencing all these firsts: the first time you get a...
