If you haven’t started playing Champions Arena yet, this might be the perfect time to build a collection of NFT Champions and hit the arena!
For one week, we’re adding $1k in $GALA every day to the Champions Arena reward pool, giving players an opportunity to earn even more rewards!
The Infusion Event runs Friday, March 1st through Friday, March 8th.
Lots of Ways to Play
With its strong focus on RPG combat mechanics, Champions Arena is a truly unique experience for players, created by RPG megafans who grew up playing the classics. With well over a hundred individual Champions to collect, each with a set of unique abilities, the combinations are virtually endless.
Collect daily rewards and blast through PvE campaign battles to buff your collections and craft the perfect team of Champions. Then when you’re ready, hit the PvE arena and play with NFT Champions to earn victory points, which translate each day into $GALA in the daily reward distribution.
You can even collect in-game (non-NFT) Champions, then mint your favorites into NFTs by purchasing and spending the corresponding number of Minting Scrolls in-game. Once minted, your Champions are yours to play and earn with, or even to list on a secondary market or bridge to another blockchain.
Exciting Updates
There’s always something new in Champions Arena, from new Champions to exclusive rewards, from limited time promos to increased drop rate events. Anytime is a great time to start building that Champion collection and playing on your favorite mobile device. Browse NFT Champions on the OpenSea secondary market here.
For this issue of Gala’s Latest and Greatest, we’re taking a look at Champions Arena, the epic RPG battler built by the incredible dev team at OneUniverse. This amazing group of accomplished game devs had a special place in their heart for RPG battle mechanics like those found in the old school classic console RPGs with which many of us grew up and sharpened our strategy skills.
They were captivated by the endless strategic combinations of both attacks and defenses, different abilities from different characters, the variety of equipment and weapons, and of course, incredible and timeless character art. Envisioning a new type of game that embraced and elevated the battle mechanics while placing beautiful art on a pedestal, the OneUniverse dev team conceived the idea of Champions Arena.
Battle All Day
What truly sets Champions Arena apart from other mobile RPGs is its strong focus on battle above everything else. In the various types of arenas, players can collect and deploy over a hundred different Champions, with new Champions being added regularly with new updates.
With so many unique Champions, each with its own set of abilities and buffs, the strategy combos are virtually endless, even for the most dedicated players. Upsets and surprises are always possible, and through proper strategy, it’s possible to defeat Champion teams with much higher levels–If you play your cards right.
Grind or Compete
With both PvE and PvP modes, Champions Arena allows players to alternate between many different modes of gameplay to always keep things fresh. There’s always a way to grind in Champions Arena.
Take on other players with your best Champion teamin the PvP “Arena” mode, where gameplay is measured by Seasons, each lasting several weeks. Within each Season, players battle for Leaderboard positions, competing for piles of loot in the form of Gems (used to buy various in-game items and equipment), Arena reward chests (containing super rare equipment and items) and Minting Scrolls, which are used to mint collected in-game Champions as NFTs on GalaChain.
NFT Champions
Because we’re running on GalaChain, players have the unique option to own their Champions as minted tokens (NFTs), allowing them to trade on secondary markets and transfer to other users. Browse the secondary market on OpenSea
Daily $GALA Rewards are also distributed for those who play with NFT Champions that are minted on GalaChain. From a reward pool determined each day by how much was spent on in-game purchases throughout that day, victorious players receive a portion of $GALA equivalent to their victory, compared to other NFT owning players.
Ownership is not required at all to play the game and collect Champions, but owning unlocks the ability to earn rewards in the PvP Arena. Through the use of Minting Scrolls, every Champion has the ability to be minted as an NFT on GalaChain. This allows players to level up their favorites while collecting Scrolls, then mint them as tokens once they’re ready to take on the competition in the Arena for real rewards!

Sun Wokong, The Monkey King
The child of the Great Rock of Astrakheim, Sun Wukong never carried much love for the priests and angels from that realm. Their fundamental differences created misunderstanding, then resentment.
When the great Temple fell was torn asunder by his hand, only his beloved tutor defended him. Spurned by all, The Monkey King now seeks to prove his indomitable strength and avenge himself and his only friend.
Normal Attack strikes out at a single enemy and gains you +1 mana. A color match will boost the mana gain to 2.
Boundless Strikes release a powerful blow on a single enemy. A color match will buff your Crit Rate before the attack.
Heaven Crusher unleashes a massive slam on all opponents, with a color match buffing your crit before the attack.
Decoy allows Sun Wokong to utilize his powers of mischief to summon clones of himself into battle. As The Monkey King is dealt damage, clones will be consumed to limit his injuries. Each time Sun Wokong or an ally lands a critical strike, a new clone will be generated.
Violet, Queen of Enchantment
All creatures feed. Does that make them all evil? The succubi need the humans… but the chaos now prevents them from accepting the sweet dreams provided for a succubus to dine.
Violet knows the path. She must help the world be rid of this chaos if the succubi are to survive. Is it predator assisting prey or the act of a passionate and ancient symbiosis?
Normal Attack lashes out at a single enemy, dealing damage and generating one mana. A color match boosts the mana gain to two.
Blood Temptation enchants a single foe, dealing damage based on Attack. A color match will cause the opponent both Attack Down and Damage Reduction debuffs.
Fatal Temptation unleashes terror and changes her ambience aura from Queen of Enchantment. This deals damage to all opponents while increasing both her turn gauge and that of the allied Champion with the highest Attack. A color match will boost the damage against enemies even further.
Queen of Enchantment shrouds Violet in strong magic, affecting every enemy combatant. As long as she remains in the battle, her ambience will cause a debuff on all enemies. Each time she uses Fatal Temptation, the effect this ability has on opponents changes.
Naomi, Traveling Arms Dealer
Naomi offers her customers two critical things: a wide and authentic smile, and the best equipment to protect, maim, incinerate, repel or otherwise wage warfare anywhere! Well, not exactly anywhere. The best you’ll find right here though!
Wherever there’s conflict, Naomi is there with a smile and a firm handshake — always ready to make a deal. Sure, there’s people with more cutting edge products, but do you see them setting up shop in this siege? Naomi’s gear is reliable, innovative and effective… and she’s willing to travel to whatever war she needs to so she can prove it.
Normal Attack strikes a single opponent, dealing damage based on the highest Attack among Naomi’s allies and generates one mana. A color match increases mana gain to two.
Bomb Toss deals damage based on the highest Attack on Naomi’s team to one enemy and generates one mana. A card match will inflict Resist Down on the opponent.
Broadside Barrage deals damage based on the Attack of Naomi’s hardest hitting ally to all enemies while also increasing the duration of all debuffs on enemies. A color match will inflict a Take More Damage debuff on the unfortunate enemies as well.
Industrious Merchant keeps Naomi and her team setting the pace of battle. Every time a debuff is inflicted on an enemy, Both Naomi and the ally with the highest attack will get a boost to their Turn Gauge.
The Celebration Continues
These aren’t the only new Champs around, as we have Agna who came into play from the Christmas sale! You may also catch a glimpse of Tempest in Mayhem, as they’re now storming their way into raids.
The issue with Mayhem records not counting in the Christmas event has been fixed, and we’ve reduced the number of missions required in the remaining days to account for this. All players will receive 3000 stockings as an apology for this issue.
In the spirit of celebration, we’ve also extended the holiday login event. Thank you all for an excellent 2023… and an exciting 2024 on the horizon!
