Hi, I’m Thomas Carney.
Welcome to CHROMAS GAMING — an independent competitive intelligence hub dedicated to deep-dive metagame analysis, tournament reporting, and deck engineering for Disney Lorcana and Riftbound TCG.
Where Competitive Gaming Meets Engineering Precision
My relationship with gaming began with an NES controller in hand and an insatiable curiosity about the systems driving the games I loved. That curiosity naturally channeled into software engineering, where I spent years building projects in Kotlin, Python, and modern systems architecture.
When modern competitive card games exploded, I recognized a familiar challenge: beneath the art and lore, every competitive TCG is a dynamic, complex mathematical engine. Win rates, opening curves, card advantage engines, and Swiss round pairings aren’t just feelings—they are quantifiable data.
I founded Chromas Gaming to bridge the gap between raw tournament results and actionable strategic insight, giving competitive players the tactical edge needed to break through regional Swiss rounds and conquer Top 8 cuts.
