Well done everyone! The conditions for Prime Wardens Argent Adept have been discovered by the community.
Lose a game to Akash’bhuta with the regular Argent Adept on the team. Then, defeat Akash’bhuta with the regular Argent Adept as the first hero; the rest of the team must be regular Haka, regular Captain Cosmic, regular Tempest, and Redeemer Fanatic (in any order). Each of the Argent Adept’s instruments must enter play during the game.
Ok, so the method of victory doesn't matter? Just putting all the instruments in play? That makes that easier, then.
McBehrer is the sole winner of this game... And McBehrer, I would step carefully should you find your way down dark alleys. More than one vote said simply, "McBehrer must die."

Yeah, and luckily Akash'Bhuta's someone you can kind of take your time with -- I ended up with a rough opening draw and had to do a lot of digging to get the instruments or the search card. Arcane Cadence never showed up, either -- so toward the end, I had to use Chastise on two limbs just to make sure the environment didn't kill Akash before I had a chance to dig out the darn horn.
But then I unlocked ... a blank card telling me to redownload the expansion.
My kill method was fun, too, and it wasn't End Of Days. Tempest used the second shot from Chain Lightning to ping Dynamic Syphon on Argent Adept who used the Lyra to play Inspiring Supertonic to let Fanatic uses Absolution to do the final three damage directly to Akashbhuta. Four heroes worked together to deal the killing blow! Haka just stood there and watched, probably tired out from a big Haka of Battle just before.
Weird. I did these exact conditions and I didn't get the unlock on Steam. Well, back to the grind.
Strange.

I don't think the order matters, but you need to have Argent first, and you have to have normal Argent, Haka, Tempest, and Captain Cosmic, and Redeemer Fanatic.

Oh, man. I've tried it five times now (including trying the initial mechanism over again) - REDEEMER Fanatic. Doy. One more time!

I fulfilled the requirements but didn't unlock. Two things happened any any of them may have borked the system into thinking I shouldn't unlock:
While playing in my tablet, I locked it and when I unlocked it, the game decided I didn't have the expansions. I didn't have internet at the time to restore it, so it took me a while to get a connection, but as soon as I clicked on Restore Purchases, everything went back to normal. For some reason, my game log stops here, but before it all the instruments had been.
AA died and was resurrected (Temple of Zhu Long)
Does anybody know which of these could have caused the unlock to fail?
Do you know why would it forget that I had downloaded the stuff? I didn't even need to redownload, just tell it the app I had them using restore purchases.
Now that he's unlocked, I'll say I enjoy using PW Argent just as much as I thought I would. The only real downsides are not being able to play a quickie Sarabande and Alacritous Subdominant being much less useful to play at all (since I often find that if I have one of the H-melody instruments I'm more likely to be using it on Inspiring Supertonic), but I think that's made up for by getting a free Silver Shadow and being able to stack plays even more nicely with Cadence. I also find myself being willing to use the second power of Cedistic Dissonant more often for card churn.
And the SFX is so gosh darn pretty-sounding, and Guise's imitation is downright hilarious.
Now I'm looking forward to when we get XTreme Argent and the poor Vocalize VA has to pull out a punk rocker scream.

Not always the best at social skills; I apologize in advance. I don't apologize for any corny and morbid jokes, though.
Resident Argent Adept and Biomancer fangirl, be forewarned.

I can agree. His power makes you consider other options that you normally have to be a bit setup for, and it brings a whole new use to Arcane Cadence. It does make you more reliant on certain instruments, but that's normal for AA.

I personally want to have that scream from the begining of Deep Purple's 'Highway Star'.
The thing I like most about PW AA's power is how much faster he seems to set up -- by the end of turn one, chances are I've either got two songs or a song and an instrument in play and I was able to get something else done (either healed, helped someone else play a card, draw a bunch, or damage). Vanilla AA had a much slower build.
While I do miss being able to use the melodies right off the bat, I don't know that I'll ever play vanilla AA again.

Now that I look that up (I must admit that hard rock is not a genre I normally listen to, though I make an exception for Celtic Punk sometimes...), I do like the way you think.

Ya, that's what I like as well, that Argent is busy belting out tunes a lot more quickly here. Nice for faster villains or villains that wipe stuff out frequently.

@McBehrer - You most likely need to re-download your expansion packs. Your name is not in the credits because you did not answer your survey before the deadline.
Did any of you have any incaps? I didn't, just in case that's one of the caveats in this unlock.

No incaps for me either.

Geeze. All three of Captain Cosmic's Dynamic Syphons were in the last 5 cards of his deck. Talk about a ridiculously long game.

The Xtreme PWs are gonna be so fun to play in general. Can't wait!
