Org Wave 9: War|Void

Part of: Transformers TCG Releases

Last updated November 6, 2026.

The Chaosbringer awakens. His Heralds answer. The Void hungers.

Org Wave 9: War|Void unleashes Unicron as a fully realized faction in the largest Transformers TCG Wave ever created. With 168 new cards, powerful new traits, and the optional Void resource system, the Chaosbringer’s arrival threatens to consume everything in his path.

Command his Heralds, harness the growing power of chaos, and unleash a titan-sized stratagem that transforms into Unicron himself.

Looking for a way into the conflict? Marvelous Heroes VS Rising Villains, the first transformerstcg.org Versus Set, brings the Wave’s signature mechanics to two complete, ready-to-play decks.

Org Wave 9: War|Void is in Public Beta at 0.4.4 BETA.

Command the Void

The darkness grows stronger with every sacrifice.

At the heart of War|Void lies the Void, an optional resource system that opens dangerous new possibilities for deckbuilding and battle.

Characters can expand the Void, accumulating chaos counters as the conflict unfolds. Unicron’s servants harness that growing power through two new traits:

• Heralds wield Channel, spending chaos counters to unleash powerful abilities.
• Chaosbringers both expand the Void and Channel its accumulated power.

Other characters can generate chaos counters without spending them, allowing teams to feed their Heralds’ growing hunger.

Embrace the Void or leave it behind. The system is entirely optional, allowing established strategies to coexist with the Chaosbringer’s new arsenal.

A stratagem that becomes Unicron

Each Station is a dark invitation. Each sacrifice brings him closer.

The Corruption of Yst // All Characters is the first titan-sized stratagem in Transformers TCG history. Its enormous, two-Station battlefield conceals a terrible purpose: preparing for Unicron’s arrival.

The Abyssal Shrine expands the Void whenever its occupant takes damage. The Emergent Maw consumes Upgrades after its occupant battles, gathering them beneath the stratagem.

And when your last character falls, the true horror emerges.

The stratagem flips into Unicron // Yst’s Annihilator.

With 22 Health, attacks that spread damage across enemy characters, and the ability to reclaim the Upgrades sacrificed to his creation, Unicron rises from your defeated team’s wreckage to finish the battle himself.

Your army may fall. The Chaosbringer bursts forth in ruin and fire.

The largest Wave in Transformers TCG history

Unicron devours worlds. Fittingly, his Wave devours records.

At 168 cards, War|Void surpasses every previous official and community Transformers TCG release, including Waste|Lands at 160 cards and Titan Masters Attack, the largest official Wave, at 140.

The release includes:

• 43 characters, in jumbo and poker sizes
• 81 battle cards, matching the record shared by Waves 1, 2, and 8
• 44 stratagems, a new release record, including the TCG’s first titan-sized stratagems

Wave 4 retains the character-count record at 52, but War|Void claims the overall crown.

Every card is documented front and back in the complete Org Wave 9 gallery.

Beyond the Void: Relics of power

Ancient treasures awaken forgotten powers. Unicron’s Heralds have learned to turn them toward darker ends.

War|Void introduces Relics, powerful Upgrades that reward faction-focused teams when equipped to their Leaders.

• Descrambler Box turns scrapped Upgrades into additional Attack or Defense for Junkions battling in Stations. Illustrated by James Marsh.
• Heart of Cybertron lets Decepticon Leaders sacrifice cards from hand to inflict damage as their forces attack. Illustrated by Winston Chan.
• Seeds of Quintus Prime grants Quintessons additional protection by sacrificing cards from hand when their characters defend. Illustrated by SNOWii.

The collection extends into Marvelous Heroes VS Rising Villains, where Creation Matrix provides an Autobot counterpart.

But Unicron’s Heralds have found a more sinister purpose for these artifacts.

The Darkest Hour is a devastating Secret Action that sacrifices Relics equipped to your Heralds, expanding the Void according to how many opposing characters share their factions.

Against the right enemy team, those sacrificed treasures can unleash an enormous surge of chaos counters.

The artifacts that once protected Cybertron may yet help destroy it.

Familiar faces. Darker destinies.

Some heroes fall. Some villains return. Some legends refuse to die.

War|Void reaches into the strangest corners of Transformers history, gathering corrupted heroes, resurrected villains, and unwilling servants of Unicron. Their stories span decades of fiction, with some drawn from incarnations even longtime fans may have missed.

The ghosts of Grand Galvatron

In TakaraTomy’s Unite Warriors, the displaced Galvatron II // Time Warrior survives as a disembodied spirit, possessing Cyclonus // Haunted by Vengeance and assembling the Unicron-powered combiner Grand Galvatron.

His unwilling recruits include Starscream // Ghost in the Machine, returned in spectral form, and Thrust // Treacherous Curse, the resurrected Curse Armada Thrust.

Death, it seems, offers little escape from Galvatron’s ambitions.

The Fallen. Power beyond reckoning.

Before the Decepticons, before Cybertron’s great wars, there was the first betrayer.

Megatronus the Fallen // Original Sinner stands alone as War|Void’s sole Super Rare Transformer (SRT), wielding power befitting one of the most feared figures among the original Thirteen Primes.

His strength revolves around Dissolution, a trait shared by six stratagems created specifically for him.

Five of these are Unbindings, each marking a character identity and feeding the Void when that character suffers damage, regardless of allegiance.

Through Wield the Entropic Arts, Megatronus can summon further Unbindings from outside the game while gathering Dissolution stratagems beneath himself.

His ultimate weapon, Abyssal Geometry, allows him to Channel 99, unleashing accumulated chaos against an enemy and one of his own teammates. The damage is limited by the Dissolution stratagems beneath him, making every Unbinding another step toward annihilation.

Friend and foe alike become instruments of his ambition.

When the bells of apocalypse toll, the Fallen intends to stand alone.

The Sweeps are coming

The Sweeps have hunted for Scourge and Galvatron since The Transformers: The Movie in 1986. Once an interchangeable legion, War|Void gives these familiar servants identities of their own.

Decepticon Sweep Two // Backstabber brings treachery to the ranks, Decepticon Sweep Six // Tactician favors calculated destruction, and Decepticon Sweep Seven // Quartermaster ensures Unicron’s hunters remain supplied.

All three were drawn and inked by Dan Khanna and colored by Myla Xan.

Their ranks grow further in Marvelous Heroes VS Rising Villains, where Sweep Freezer and Sweep Novakane await Scourge’s command outside the starting team.

The Sweeps were made to obey. Some have developed ambitions of their own.

The Four Horsemen of Unicron

Their destinies were stolen. Unicron gave them a terrible new purpose.

Drawn from Dreamwave’s Transformers: Armada and Energon comics, familiar Beast Wars warriors were abducted and reforged into the Four Horsemen:

• Airazor // Death
• Cheetor // Pestilence
• Rhinox // War
• Terrorsaur // Famine

Illustrated by SNOWii, these unwilling servants bear the names of the apocalypse, their former identities buried beneath Unicron’s will.

Their tragedy reveals one of the Chaosbringer’s cruelest powers: even those who oppose him may become instruments of his destruction.

Heralds from forgotten corners

Dirge // Otherworldly Stranger recalls the mysterious, unnamed Herald from Dreamwave’s Transformers: Armada comics, sent from another dimension to prepare a universe for Unicron’s arrival.

Ramjet // Interdimensional Aberration comes from Transformers: Universe, where imprisonment in unspace transformed a Herald into something warped and eldritch before his return to reality.

The Chaosbringer’s servants are drawn from places where even the laws of existence have begun to fail.

Twisted identities

Rodimus Cron // Corrupted Cavalier emerges from Machinima’s Power of the Primes, where the Matrix of Chaos transforms Hot Rod into a ruthless enemy of his former allies.

Dark Scorponok // Ravenous Revenant carries the tragedy of Transformers: Energon into Cybertron, returning as an undead creature with an insatiable hunger for sparks.

Obsidian // Vainglorious Despot draws from Transformers: Universe, presenting a vain, emotional alternate-universe incarnation of the Beast Machines general. After overthrowing Megatron and seizing Cybertron, his ambitions eventually attract Unicron’s attention.

Recognize the faces. Fear what they’ve become.

An unexpected resistance

Even at the edge of oblivion, some sparks refuse to surrender.

Unicron’s shadow stretches across War|Void, but ancient guardians, unlikely survivors, and Cybertron’s most eccentric inhabitants still have something to say about the end of everything.

Hope from unexpected places

Junkion Jimmy // Collect and Win!, inspired by The Big Broadcast of 2006, and Wasteoid Gamma // Waste Not! Want More! bring a welcome dose of Junkion ingenuity. Good-natured and resourceful, they’re happy to lend a hand, especially when there’s a favor to be returned or valuable scrap in the bargain.

Strafe // Mutated Twin Striker, the two-headed Dinobot from IDW’s Transformers: Rage of the Dinobots, has endured a more troubled transformation. Finding a place among the forlorn Dinobots, her story offers resilience amid the Wave’s darker tales of mutation and corruption.

Guardians and second chances

Vector Prime // From Creation to Apocalypse, one of the original Thirteen, has guarded creation across the ages. Few understand the threat of Unicron more intimately than this ancient protector.

Autobot Rewind // Inquisitive Archivist offers a quieter form of resistance. Against a darkness that consumes entire histories, preserving knowledge becomes an act of defiance.

Autobot Roller // Wanderer of Unspace knows Unicron’s cruelty firsthand. Lost between dimensions and drawn into Grand Galvatron’s ranks, his eventual recovery of his memories and return to the Autobots prove that even the Chaosbringer’s hold can be broken.

Unicron may devour worlds. He has yet to extinguish every spark.

Forged through Public Beta

Some things refuse to stay buried.

War|Void began as Wave BFC, an internally lettered release from Team Bayformers, before being shelved during the Allied Crossplay era.

On November 23, 2023, Team Bayformers revived the unfinished project independently. Roughly a year later, it emerged as Org Wave 9: War|Void, with Unicron’s long-awaited faction finally approaching the battlefield.

OW9 entered Public Beta on December 23, 2024, beginning nearly two years of public evaluation.

With a new faction, multiple traits, and an optional resource system, the Wave introduces an enormous range of interactions. Public Beta allows the community to explore these possibilities, challenge their balance, and shape the final release.

The current public version, 0.4.4 BETA, is available for unrestricted casual play in transformerstcg.org environments. See Casual Play.

The Chaosbringer in your hands

The OW9 Unicron Dice commemorate War|Void with twelve premium orange-and-bronze dice bearing the Unicron faction insignia.

Mark the damage inflicted by his servants, or watch the chaos counters accumulate as the Void expands. These dice bring the Chaosbringer’s presence directly to your tabletop.

Produced in a limited run, the OW9 Unicron Dice are now available, while supplies last.

Unicron’s Heralds are gathering. Ancient Relics are changing hands. Cybertron’s defenders prepare for a war that may consume them all.

The Chaosbringer has arrived. What will you build to face him?
