Welcome back to our [Match of the Week] column, where we dissect the upcoming carnage in Arthdal Chronicles: Three Factions. This week, we've got a rather spicy setup at the Frost Cliff: the Isodnyeong, Ha-je-san, and Iruze groups are set to collide. Curious about who’s bringing the biggest guns? Let’s dive into the stats.

※ Rankings and combat power figures are based on the peak data collected between the 14th and 18th.
※ Only main characters have been accounted for; alts were excluded.

Isodnyeong vs. Ha-je-san vs. Iruze: Who holds the edge?

We have a proper clash on our hands: the top-tier Isodnyeong, the KING alliance-backed Iruze, and the formidable Ha-je-san—the champions from the Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau regions. With average combat power hovering around the 140,000 to 150,000 mark and a massive influx of players, the fight for the Frost Cliff boss is going to be absolute chaos.

Keep a close eye on Ha-je-san. They’ve historically struggled in cross-server content against the Korean servers, but they clearly got the memo. Following the December server transfer event, they’ve bolstered their ranks with top-tier talent. The power spikes from players like Storm Mage '维加', Priest '月魁', Storm Mage '瀚墨', and Fighter '神無忌' are frankly terrifying.

Facing them is Isodnyeong, anchored by the likes of Storm Mage 'Doduk', who is consistently battling for the top spot in Korea. Backed by the 'Korea' alliance, they have been dominating cross-server content. While the 'One Piece' alliance recently jumped ship to Daraburu, weakening their ranks slightly, they remain a force to be reckoned with.

Lastly, the KING alliance in Iruze has been steadily consolidating their power since their move. To be blunt, they trail behind the other two in raw average power, making it an uphill battle to secure the boss. However, their sheer numbers and solid mid-range rankers could still throw a massive spanner in the works.

Let's look at the heavy hitters. Isodnyeong boasts Storm Mage 'Doduk' (197,545 CP), Fighter 'Yeopyu' (168,266 CP), Warrior 'Waddadda' (166,521 CP), Paladin 'Darkrai' (161,535 CP), and Warrior 'Ppiyo' (158,118 CP). Ha-je-san counters with Storm Mage '维加' (195,959 CP), Priest '月魁' (189,227 CP), Storm Mage '瀚墨' (186,259 CP), Fighter '神無忌' (178,214 CP), and Archer '大東' (170,103 CP). Meanwhile, the Iruze lineup features Archer 'KingSmaN' (185,773 CP), Archer 'Kkomahyeong' (175,336 CP), Priest 'RubyQueen' (175,190 CP), Archer 'Sashinhyeong' (167,707 CP), and Archer 'Hyeoni' (153,575 CP).
