💡 Pro Tips

Combat Strategy

🎯 Read Patterns
Most players have habits. If they always Power after a Dodge, punish it with Defend!
🔢 Count Their Uses
Track what actions your opponent has left. If they're out of Dodges, Power freely!
💨 Save Your Dodges
Dodges are precious with only 3 uses. Save them for clutch moments when you're low HP.
🛡️ Defend When Ahead
Got a big HP lead? Play defensive and let them come to you.

Item Strategy

⚖️ Synergize Your Loadout
Going aggressive? Stack damage + crit. Playing safe? Armor + HP + lifesteal.
