After both players enter their name, each player gets to choose 3 champions and set one of them as a leader (You cannot choose a champion selected by another player) then you can start the game.
The objective of the game is to knockout all the other player’s champions. The game is played on a 5x5 board.
There are 5 covers placed randomly throughout the board (if a cover is between you and another champion you cannot attack that champion until you destroy the cover).
You cannot move to a cell that contains another player or a cover.
You can move or do normal attack in only 4 directions (UP, DOWN, RIGHT, LEFT).
In the beginning of each round all champions are ordered based on speed (fastest champion starts).
• Type: (Hero/Villain/AntiHero).
• HP: Health Points
• Mana: Used for abilities
• AP: Action points (Used for moving/Doing a normal attack/Casting abilities)
• Speed: The faster the champion the earlier they start their turn.
• AR: Attack Range (Champions can only attack within their attack range [range is calculated using Manhattan distance]).
• Move to an empty cell (costs 1 action point).
• Do a normal attack (costs 2 action points).
• Cast an ability (action point cost/mana cost depend on the ability).
• Use Leader Ability (only if champion is the player’s chosen leader).
• Heroes: they deal extra damage when attacking villains.
• Villains: they deal extra damage when attacking heroes.
• Anti-Heroes: when being attacked or attacking a hero or villain, the antihero will always act as the opposite type. If attacking an antihero, damage is calculated normally.
• Leaders can use their ability once during the entire game.
Each champion has 3 abilities which they can use throughout the game.
Abilities can be damaging, healing, or crowd control (applies an effect).
Abilities have different action point cost/mana cost/cool down/cast range.
Abilities also have different areas of effect (SINGLE TARGET, TEAM TARGET, SELF TARGET, SURROUND, DIRECTIONAL):
• SINGLE TARGET: Applies to only one target as long as they are within cast range.
• TEAM TARGET: Applies to the entire team (Current champion’s team if it’s healing or a BUFF effect / Opponent’s team if it’s damaging or a DEBUFF effect).
• SELF TARGET: Applies to champion who is casting the ability.
• SURROUND: Applies to adjacent cells (No friendly fire).
• DIRECTIONAL: Applies to cells in chosen direction as long as they are in cast range (No friendly fire).
• Disarm: Target cannot use normal attacks. Target gains a SINGLETARGET damaging ability called "Punch", Mana Cost: 0, Damage: 50, Cooldown: 1, Range: 1, AP Cost: 1.
• Dodge: Target has a 50% chance of dodging normal attacks. Increase speed by 5%.
• Embrace: Heals target by 20%.
• PowerUp: Increase Damage and Heal amounts of all damaging and healing abilities of the target by 20%.
• Root: Target cannot move.
• Shield: Block the next attack or damaging ability cast on target. Increase speed by 2%.
• Shock: Decrease target speed and normal attack damage by 10%. Decrease target's AP by 1.
