Fights you can watch or fight yourself
Every match gives you a choice: take the field or take the bench. Control one fighter directly, aiming abilities and dodging around the arena in real time, or set your team's tactics and watch the plan play out. You can even mix the two, steering your own character while the rest of the squad follows your orders.
The battles are proper team fights, five on five and other formats, where positioning and timing decide who walks out. One moment you are holding a doorway with a shield, the next your mage is unloading on the clump your tank just made. Classes play very differently, so who you field changes how a fight feels.
Building a club worth rooting for
Between fights, you run the club. You decide who is worth developing, who rides the bench, and how each fighter's tactics should behave in battle.
Fighters have classes with their own abilities, stats that vary from hire to hire, and room to grow across seasons. Rest and energy matter too: swap tired starters out for a lesser cup and keep your best five fresh for the ones that count. Before long, your roster stops being a list of stats and starts being a team with its own way of fighting.
A second controller on the bench
This is a game built for talking about it, and local co-op lets you skip the talking. A friend can join in and take control of a fighter on your team, so one of you manages the plan while the other does the stabbing. Arguing about who gets the mage never gets old.
It also suits short, social sessions: a season rolls along in digestible chunks, and there is always a market report to read out loud or a cup final to watch together. And since every run randomizes stats, opponents and market deals, next time you play, the whole league looks different.
Can you play it solo?
Can you play it solo?
Yes. It is a singleplayer game at heart, and the whole club loop, from recruiting to league titles, works on your own. Local co-op is there if you want company, but nobody is waiting on a lobby.
Do you have to control a fighter manually?
No. You can set tactics and watch your team fight on its own, or take direct control of one fighter when a match matters. Both are valid ways to play, and many matches let you switch between the two.
What does a run actually look like?
You recruit mercenaries from a market, grow your roster, and compete through structured leagues and cups across seasons. Stats, opponents and market offers are randomized, so each season brings new decisions about who to keep, who to sell and where to spend gold.
Is it still being worked on?
Very much so. Updates arrive at a rapid pace, which keeps the game improving and changing. The flip side is that balance can shift between one session and the next, so a strategy you built last week may need adjusting.
