Knockout rules
Choose one of three starting squads; one starter reroll is free. You begin with four lives and four deployed heroes. Capacity grows to five in round 2, six in round 4, then increases every two rounds. Items are offered in rounds 1, 4, 7 and so on.
Economy and upgrades
Round gold begins at 6, 7, 9, 10, 12 and continues in that pattern. There is no interest or streak gold. Refreshing the shop costs 2 gold. Buy two copies for a 2★ hero, then two more for 3★. Place units, equip items and review alliances before confirming battle.
Follow the current rules
Balance updates can change heroes and alliances. The wiki follows published rules; statistics keep different rulesets separate.
