Notable units list

Fire Arena tier list

• Vortex Arena

The Vortex Arena is a special Arena zone located at the Vortex. The Vortex Arena is available for a limited time only.

• Vortex Arena Battles

Each Vortex Arena match consumes a Vortex Arena Orb. Vortex Arena Orbs recover every 20 minutes. Every Vortex Arena Battle won, Tournament Points (or TP) are added. There are two ways to win rewards:

1. Reach TP milestones during the event period.
2. Attain & maintain rank during the event period (daily rank, overall rank, etc.)

• Vortex Arena Battle Rules

For Vortex Arena Season 1 (Inferno Showdown) only a squad made of FIRE units are allowed to join. During a Vortex Arena battle, Summoners are unable to:

• Control units during battle. Units will perform attacks on their own discretion.

• Use any items during the battle. Victory goes to the squad able to knock out all members of the opposing squad within the time limit. If neither team is defeated within the time limit, the winning team will be decided according to the following sequence of conditions:

• The team with the greater number of surviving Units.

• The team with the greatest remaining HP.

• The team that inflicted the greatest total damage.

• Vortex Arena Battle Points

Tournament Points (TP) increases with victories in Vortex Arena battles & decreases with defeats.

Get more TP by defeating participants with a higher TP rank than that of your own. You must also be careful as you will lose more TP if you lose to an opponent whose TP rank is lower than your own. The max amount of TP obtainable is 200 while the minimum amount is 10. In order to obtain 200 TP, one must defeat a Summoner with a total TP 3000 points higher than their own.

TP will only go up or down when a player attacks another player. Defensive wins or losses do not affect TP.

• Vortex Arena Battle Rewards

There are two ways to win rewards:

1. Reach TP milestones during the event period.
2. Attain & maintain rank during the event period (daily rank, overall rank, etc.)

Current Vortex Arena rewards are Gems, Burst Frogs, Fire leveling & evolution material units, & NEW unique spheres! Details of all rewards from the Vortex Arena page in-game.
