Unique Features

Once you enter into your first match you will notice a line of target dummies before each match begins, this practice time expires when all players connect to the match and then you get to choose your Battlerite… What is a Battlerite? A Battlerite is one of 3 unique traits you choose from the to best support your champion before each round of each begins having a unique effect on your game play.  Each selection is tethered to one of your abilities so make sure you make full use of this ability whenever it is off cooldown to get the full effect in the arena match. You have roughly 2 minutes to select your Battlerite so think about your strategy and the ability your want to use most often to assure your matches success.  Once selections are made you are automatically mounted up on your predetermined mount…. Thats right you have a mount this positioning is key in Battlerite, the suggestion to you is to not engage or dismount before you are ready to execute your plan and are in your proper map position to get a one up on your opponents.

Champions

There are 18 different characters in Battlerite each unique with a totally different play style.

To learn more about these characters you can go to www.battlerite.com

Champion Abilities

Each Champion has 5 basic abilities, as well as 1 assigned EX ability and 1 ultimate ability on the normal arena user interface. There are also 2 hidden abilities, these can be found by holding down shift and act as EX abilities as well. The hidden abilities are tethered to one of your basic abilities. Try to keep in mind when using these EX abilities you use some of your stored ultimate charge. In most cases your want to save up this charge to cap and execute your ultimate faster than your opponent. Your EX should act as quick situational actions that must be used only when you are in a desperate spot, to achieve victory or avoid defeat.
