Champions Arena Season 3 has officially begun! There are tons of new features and fixes in this update, as well as an all new arena leaderboard!

The beginning of a new season offers a great opportunity for new players to get into the game and first cut their teeth in the arena.

New Content

Estates better get cracking on construction, because there are two entirely new Estate structures to build!

Estate Board

The Estate Board can grant you an Estate-exclusive mission for you to complete using your Champions. Each time you complete an Estate Board mission, you and the Estate the building is in will receive rewards.

Estate Store

Your Estate will start to build up a lot more treasure with the Estate Board. Luckily, there’s a great way to put all this clutter to use with the Estate Store. Using this building, Estate owners can place rewards the Estate has accumulated for sale. As this building levels, more and more of the proceeds will go to pad the coffers of your Estate.

Store and Trade Market Update

To make managing items easier, any item purchased from the Shop will now go directly to your inventory rather than your mailbox. Note that this does not apply to Cash Shop or Gala Store purchases, which will still be delivered to you through in-game mail.

The minimum price of items in the Trade Market is now dynamic based on the category and item level. This change is not yet reflected in text within the game, but you can view these minimums below:

Champion Updates

This update brings a minor change to the Champion Boxes that can be received through the Shop. From now on, Leopold and Sophia will no longer appear in the Rare and Legendary Champion Boxes respectively. This change applies to all boxes, even if previously purchased but not yet opened.

The special event with increased summoning chances for Lavina, Zafrina and Jia ends with this update. While there may not be a boosted chance to summon these three anymore, through the end of this season they will still get their +15% VP Bonus.

Balance Updates

Lavina

Lavina’s Passive skill has been adjusted.

Previously: Maintain Execution Stance for 1 turn. Grants Attack +20% and Defense -20%

Now: Maintain Execution Stance for 2 turns. Grants Attack +30% and Defense -35%

Jia

Several of Jia’s skills have been adjusted.

Skill 2
Previously: Bonus damage multiplier 30% & Fighting Spirit damage multiplier 10%

Now: Bonus damage multiplier 20% + Fighting Spirit damage multiplier 15%

Skill 3
Previously: Bonus damage multiplier 40% & Fighting Spirit damage multiplier 10%

Now: Bonus damage multiplier 20% + Fighting Spirit damage multiplier 20%

True Balance (Passive)
Previously: Critical Hit Rate +30% and Speed +10%

Now: Critical Hit Rate +30% and Critical Hit Damage +60%

Sakaris

An animation will now play when Sakaris’s Passive skill is activated, and the skill name will now appear when the death skill effect is applied to an ally.

Battle Updates

The default Speed of all battles has now been changed to 2x. Arena Battles will now occur at 2x Speed as well.

Randomly during arena matchmaking, players will be asked to solve a very simple quiz to verify that macros and automations are not being used.

All battles will now become unavailable five minutes before any server maintenance to avoid loss of progress or other issues.

Let the Battles Begin!

The arena is open and ready for true Champions. Will Season 3 bring you glory? Do you have what it takes to fight for victory?

This is just an abbreviated summary of everything that has been updated, and you’ll probably notice other small changes throughout the game. Expect to see more updates soon… the battle is just getting started in Champions Arena.

New Legendary Champions and a Heightened Chance to Summon Them!

New Legendary Champions and a Heightened Chance to Summon Them!


With the Season 2 update, 3 brand new Legendary Champions will have a 4x in-game Summon rate for a limited time.

If you still haven’t started playing Champions Arena, this is the perfect opportunity to start your Champion Book with a real bang–Introducing 3 brand new Legendary Champions: Zafrina, Lavina and Jia!

Play Now

New Legendary Champions

As a limited-time special appreciation event until the next build update in mid September, you’ll have a massively enhanced chance to summon any of these 3 Legendary ladies. In fact, now you have 4 times the chance to summon Zafrina, Lavina or Jia over any other Legendary Champion!

Anxious to learn more about the skills and stories of the new Legendary Champions?

They’re live in the game now, so even if you don’t manage to summon one yourself, you’re bound to start facing them in the Arena very soon! Will they fight for you or against you? Time will tell!

Have troubles with opponents? Lavina will get them sworded for you.

New Champion NFT Bonus

Each of these new Champions is only available through Summoning in-game. However, players always have the option to mint their Champions on GalaChain, using the required number of Minting Scrolls through the Estate’s Altar of Champions.

Players who play with minted NFT versions of any of these new Legendary Champions will receive an additional 15% boost to Victory Points for each battle (per Legendary Champion NFT used). This Victory Point boost will remain in effect until the end of Season 3.

We understand that minting an NFT Champion can be costly and is not a lightly-made decision. Plan, strategize, and check the OpenSea secondary market for current listings and trade history of existing Legendary Champions.

Consider this: The first person to mint a Zafrina will have the only Zafrina NFT in existence 😯 Until someone else mints one.

New Champion Growth Package

This is an especially exciting addition to the in-game Cash Shop. Suppose you summon one of the first Legendary Jias and you’re so excited you can’t wait for the level grind. Now you don’t need to. Just pick up one of the New Champion Growth Packs and power up your Champion fast.

Keep in mind that Growth Packs are only available for a limited time. When the new Legendary Champions’ Summons return to regular odds, the Growth Pack opportunity ends!

Play Now

These new Growth Packs will help you move fast with your new Legendary Champion!

Fixes

The team at OneUniverse has been hard at work on updates, improvements and bug fixes, as you can see from the list below!

  • Fixed the issue where the skill description wasn’t correctly matching the actual skill effect
  • Fixed the issue where Ifrit casts turn gauge increase instead of buff removal
  • Fixed the issue where it says that the skill is activated when attacked while it should say that it’s activated when attacking, in Tasaria’s passive skill description
  • Fixed the wrong name displayed in Sakaris passive skill description
  • Fixed the issue where there was a missing skill in King Titan’s passive skill description: about 50% increase in effect accuracy when it’s in Rampage mode
  • Changed Bjorn’s unique resource effect from speed increase to defense increase that matches the actual effect
  • Fixed the issue where Devi & Stan’s overcharge is recharged immediately after using skill3 when there’s 1 overcharge skill
  • Fixed the issue where the Angel’s Fury is not created by Seraph
  • Fixed the issue where the turn gauge increase was applied instead of buff removal when used Ifrit’s basic attack’s Card match effect
  • Fixed the issue where the Quixote passive effect was intermittently working abnormally
  • Fixed the issue where the attack power reduction is applied instead of speed reduction as a status effect when Demias’ Card match skill2 is used
  • Fixed the issue where the removed aura did not reactivate after using Desdemona’s Card match skill3
  • Variety of improvements to the reward UI
  • Fixed localization and translation issues
  • Fixed the issue where NFT Champions were unlockable when linked

As you can see, the team is hard at it, making Champions Arena the the best mobile RPG game you’ve ever played, with brilliant PvP strategy, endless combos, and real player ownership.

Play the game on your favorite mobile device now, or on PC through the Gala Games launcher.

Jia (and over 100 other unique Champions) will be waiting for you.

The Grand Opening | Champions Arena

The Grand Opening | Champions Arena


Champions Arena is now live on Android, iOS and the Gala Games platform.

After months of meticulous development and relentless dedication, the day has finally arrived. We’re thrilled to announce that this incredible game from OneUniverse is now live!

Today marks a revolutionary chapter in Gala Games history. As we release Champions Arena on multiple platforms simultaneously — the Apple and Google Play stores for our mobile warriors, and the Gala Games launcher for our PC champions — we’re not just presenting a game; we’re introducing the next evolution of our ecosystem.

RPG Combat Fusion

For those new to the buzz, Champions Arena is not just another title in your gaming library. It’s a vivid world of turn-based RPG strategy, empowering your gaming experience like never before. How, you ask?

True Ownership: Like all Gala Games, Champions Arena is powered by GalaChain, our games-first blockchain. You can purchase, earn, or trade items that are minted on the blockchain, or mint your non-NFT Champions using special Minting Scrolls. Once a Champion is minted, you truly own it– No strings attached.

Play Anywhere, Anytime: With a simultaneous launch on both mobile and PC, jump into the arena whenever the mood strikes, wherever you might be.

Empowerment through Gaming: Beyond the breathtaking battles, you’ll discover an economy system designed to empower and reward players, creating new layers of depth and strategy for serious gamers!

Invitation to Web2 Gamers

If you’re still skeptical about web3-enabled games, this could seem like uncharted territory. While the tech is cutting edge, at its heart, Champions Arena is all about the love of the game. It’s exquisitely beautiful and masterfully designed by the innovative experts at OneUniverse, who have a special passion for changing the landscape of RPG combat. The empowerment of ownership, the decentralization, and the real gameplay rewards are just bonuses.

Ownership and rewards in Champions Arena are entirely optional. You can enjoy the game as much as you want, using non-NFT Champions to move forward. Then if you ever decide to own the assets you’ve worked so hard to upgrade, you have the option to mint them as NFTs using Minting Scrolls!

Whether or not you’re into real ownership and rewards for your gameplay, there is plenty of PvP and PvE action in Champions Arena to make the time fly by!

Secondary Market Champions

One of the greatest advantages to owning NFT Champions is the ability to trade them on the Ethereum secondary market.

Now that Champions Arena is live, NFT assets like Champions may be bridged back and forth from GalaChain to Ethereum.

Chances are you’ll see some new Champions become available on the official secondary market collection at OpenSea.

If you’re browsing for Champions on OpenSea and decide to make a purchase, just purchase the item with your account-linked web3 wallet, then you can easily bridge the Champion(s) into the game for PvP action and rewards.

Wherever You Game

This simultaneous launch on mobile and PC is a new chapter for us, and as we write it, we want you (our core community members) with us every step of the way. Dive into the world of Champions Arena, compete with players worldwide, and relish the thrill of a game that doesn’t just entertain but truly empowers.

Champions Arena | The Litepaper

Champions Arena | The Litepaper


Here are the detailed game economy plans for Champions Arena in preparation for the game’s launch on 8/23/23!

INTRODUCTION

Champions Arena is a turn-based RPG that will allow players to own the playable Champions in the game, upgrade those characters to be better and stronger, and compete for in-game and other rewards. To accomplish this, an economy has been designed to define the creation, distribution, and utilization of off-chain and on-chain assets within Champions Arena.

The premier fungible token to be earned and used in Champions Arena will be the $GALA token. In order to earn $GALA tokens, players will need to optimize and strengthen their team and compete against others for Victory Points.

CHAMPIONS ARENA ECONOMY

Participants in the Champions Arena economy can start by either utilizing the free database Champions, upgrading them through gameplay and Gems and minting them, or they can acquire Champion NFTs to own their in-game assets and unlock transferability of their progress. The economy will be defined by various sinks and faucets.

Faucet (Supply)

The sole method for the earning of $GALA in Champions Arena will be through the earning of Victory Points during competitive PvP play (Arena) that are converted to $GALA at the end of each day (3am UTC). Victory Points can only be earned when at least 1 NFT or NFT-Ready (NFTR) Champion is used on the player’s team in an Arena match. This is defined by the following:

Base VPs for Winning Arena Match

10 VP

Competitive Score Multiplier — subject to change as we achieve our rank percentile goals of: Bronze (0%-40%); Silver (40%-65%); Gold (65%-80%); Platinum (80%-90%); Diamond (90%-95%); Master (95%-98.5%); Champion (98.5%-100%)

Below 1400 (Bronze) — 0.05x
1400 (Silver) — 0.8x
1600 (Gold) — 2.5x
1800 (Platinum) — 4x
2000 (Diamond) — 15x
2200 (Master) — 24x
2400 (Champion) — 30x

NFT Multiplier Addition (per CHAMPION NFT used in match)

Common — 0.05
Uncommon — 0.1
Rare — 0.2
Epic — 0.35
Legendary — 0.7

New Champion Multiplier — Using a Champion released within the past month

+(.15)per new Champion. For example, 2 New Champions = 1+(.15*2)


Examples

Silver player wins a match with one Common NFT and two Rare NFTs:

  • VP Multiplier = (0.8 Silver Bracket Multiplier + 0.05 Common Multiplier + 0.2 Rare Multiplier + 0.2 Rare Multiplier) = 1.25
  • VPs Earned = 1.25*10 Base VPs = 12.5 VPs earned

Diamond player wins a match with three Uncommon NFTs and one Legendary NFT:

  • VP Multiplier = (15 Diamond Bracket Multiplier + 0.1 Uncommon multiplier + 0.1 Uncommon multiplier + 0.1 Uncommon multiplier + 0.7 Legendary multiplier) = 16
  • VPs Earned = 16*10 Base VPs = 160 VPs earned

Diamond player wins a match with three Uncommon star NFTs and one “New” Legendary NFT:

  • VP Multiplier = (15 Diamond Bracket Multiplier + 0.1 Uncommon multiplier + 0.1 Uncommon multiplier + 0.1 Uncommon multiplier + 0.7 Legendary multiplier) * 1+(0.15*1) New Champion Multiplier = 18.4
  • VPs Earned = 18.4*10 Base VPs = 184 VPs earned

Bronze player wins with 4 Legendary NFTs:

  • VP Multiplier = (0.05 Bronze Bracket Multiplier + 0.7 Legendary NFT Multiplier + 0.7 Legendary Multiplier + 0.7 Legendary Multiplier + 0.7 Legendary Multiplier) = 2.85
  • VPs earned = 2.85*10 Base VPs = 28.5 VPs Earned

Distribution

$GALA distribution occurs once per day at 3am UTC by calculating the total number of Victory Points earned by the player base that day and exchanging the players’ Victory Points to $GALA at a rate defined by the level of game engagement for that day.

Sinks (Demand)

In-App purchase sinks will be done through the purchasing of Gems with either fiat or $GALA, while purchases made through the Gala platform will be done directly through fiat or $GALA. Players may be able to purchase

  • Champion NFTs
  • Summoner Skin NFTs
  • Aura NFTs
  • Estate NFTs
  • Nexus NFTs
  • Champion Summoning
  • Minting Scrolls
  • Convenience Purchases/Retention Rewards
  • Upgrading Nexus

Minting Scrolls

Users who purchase database champions through summoning and put in time and resources to level them up might find themselves in the position of having very strong champions with no means of retaining ownership and the ability to transfer or sell these assets.
 
For this reason, these users will be able to purchase Minting Scrolls at $50 or potentially earn them in the Arena so they can turn their database champions into NFT-Ready Champions to enjoy the in-game benefits of NFT ownership.

The number of Minting Scrolls required to mint a user’s database Champion will be reliant on the rarity of said Champion. This is expressed as the following:

  • Common — 2 Minting Scrolls required ($100 cost to mint)
  • Uncommon — 4 Minting Scrolls required ($200 cost to mint)
  • Rare— 6 Minting Scrolls required ($300 cost to mint)
  • Epic— 11 Minting Scrolls required ($550 cost to mint)
  • Legendary— 26 Minting Scrolls required ($1300 cost to mint)

Nexus NFTs

Nexus NFTs will be the rental vehicle in Champions Arena — that is, they will be the manner in which idle Champion NFT owners and dedicated players with no NFTs can connect and start to earn collaboratively.

Specifically, If a Champion NFT owner utilizes a Nexus by attaching a Champion NFT to that Nexus, another player would then be able to play with that Champion and potentially earn $GALA without owning the Champion NFT. Any Victory Point rewards derived from the usage of a Champion NFT attached to a Nexus would be split between the Nexus owner, Champion NFT owner, and player according to rates shown below.

Nexus Owner

  • Earns for providing the means (e.g., assets) through which NFT owners and non-NFT players can connect and collaborate to earn
  • Will be able to upgrade their Nexus for additional NFT slots and an increase in equity opportunities for themselves and the associated NFT owner(s) over the earnings derived from attached NFTs
  • Incentivized to upgrade their Nexus using Gems to increase their percentage share of earnings derived from each attached NFT, as well as overall earnings potential from the ability to attach more NFTs
  • Also incentivized to purchase Champion NFTs for vertical integration (attaching their own NFTs and earning the Nexus owner and NFT owner share)

NFT Owner

  • Earns for providing the means (e.g. assets) through which a player with no NFTs can utilize NFTs in-game and earn Victory Points
  • Incentivized to upgrade their Champions so that more people want to use them
  • Also incentivized to purchase Nexus NFTs for vertical integration (attaching their NFTs to their own Nexus and earning the Nexus owner and NFT owner share)

Player

  • Earns for providing the actions necessary to utilize assets provided toward productive ends (Victory Point generation)
  • Incentivized to purchase Champion NFTs to earn a larger share of the fruits of their actions

Conclusion

Champions Arena presents a dynamic and engaging economy that seamlessly integrates with various forms of in-game and off-chain assets. By crafting a system that rewards players at various levels of participation, from casual gameplay to ownership of NFTs, Champions Arena fosters a community where collaboration and competition coalesce. The fusion of Victory Points, NFTs, Nexus, and minting creates a multifaceted experience where players can earn and grow their assets within the game.

Whether a player, owner, or both, the Champions Arena economy offers a thrilling RPG experience, fostering engagement in the evolving landscape of blockchain gaming.

NOTE: All information in this Litepaper is subject to change for any reason and a log of any changes will be kept here. A downloadable PDF version will also soon become available.
