Preparation Phases

During this phase, you can apply items, substitute Gotchis, change leaders, and formation
Adapt to your opponent's team and make strategic decisions for the best chance of victory

How to Enter
Visit the Gotchi Battler website and click on the tournament you want to join, then select the "Create Team" button
This allows you to create a team of 5 Gotchis, with the option to add 1-2 substitutes
Choose which Gotchi is your team leader and the formation you want to use
Once you are confident with your lineup, click "Save Team" and prepare for battle
Gotchi Lending & Renting
If you have Gotchis that are not being used, you can lend them out to other players and earn GHST passively!
Here are some tips when lending:
Set the lending duration to 168 hours (7 days) to cover the registration period. This ensures that wearables won't be changed/removed before the tournament starts. If your lending period is too short, a warning message will be displayed to the renter.
Set the upfront cost based on the BRS of your Gotchi and the tournament prize pool. The higher the BRS, the higher the upfront cost you can charge!
Don't have enough Gotchis to compete? Check out the "Gotchi Lending" tab to view a list of all Aavegotchis that are available to rent.
You can also find other players to team up with, there is a looking-for-team channel in our discord! Join HERE.
New Features for Season 9
Item Shop
There are 9 different types of items (Speed, Health, Critical, Armor, Evade, Resist, Magic, Physical, Accuracy)
Each item has 3 rarities with increased buffs (Common, Rare, Mythical)
Items can be purchased with GHST. They are off-chain and live in your inventory on the webapp, not as NFTs
Apply your items to individual Gotchis in the preparation phase during tournaments
Items are single use. After being applied, they are used in the next round of the tournament
The stat boosts get applied at the start of a battle and are effective for the entire fight. After the battle ends, used items are removed
Outside of tournaments (training, simulator, etc), they are unlimited and free to use for practice purposes
Browse the shop to see how much each stat is increased by different items.
Simulator Tool
Experiment with the new simulator to create your strongest teams
Create two teams to battle against each other, using real or training Gotchis
You can search for your opponents Gotchis, and practice battling against them
Since there are five Gotchis on a team, finding the best combination is the key to success
Easily duplicate matchups to change variables like items, team leader, and formation
Choose the number of simulations you want to run and select "run all"
There is no need to sign transactions anymore, so the experience is much smoother
Profiles & Saved Teams
After connecting to the app, click on your profile in the top right corner and sign-in
You can now save teams to your profile and use them later
View all the items in your inventory
Badges and achievements coming soon!
Balancing Changes
In version 1.7, we made significant improvements to our balance simulations and reporting suite! Here are some notable changes that have been made:
Healers can now heal other healers
Mages stun has been reworked
Troll and Mage leader skill now buffs all allies
Cleave damage increased from 1.05x -> 1.55x
Ninja special attack damage multiplier increased from 1.1x -> 1.35x
