Match Process

  • Starting from 60 seconds before teleport, system messages are displayed to notify the participants.

  • Teleported participants have 60 seconds to prepare, after which the Arena turns into a battlefield and the battle begins.

  • Each match lasts for a maximum of 6 minutes. However, a victor may be determined before the 6 minute time limit.

  • During the match, participants will receive a 2-minute warning system message informing the match will end soon.

  • 20 seconds after the match ends, players are teleported to in front of the Olympiad Manager they enrolled with.

Match Results

  • Once the outcome of the match is decided, on-screen messages and the battle result UI will display the victor and changes to their Olympiad points.

  • When one of the contender’s HP falls to 0 in the Arena, the winner of the match is the contender who has not died.

  • If both contenders are still alive after 6 minutes of battle, the player who inflicted more damage during the battle is declared the winner.

  • If one of the contenders logs out before the match is decided, the contender still logged in wins the match.

  • The match ends in a draw if the contenders are still alive after 6 minutes of battle and have inflicted the same amount of damage to each other.

  • If the server crashes while the battle is in progress, the match is annulled and doesn’t count toward either player’s Olympiad record.

 

Olympiad Rewards

  • If a player has participated in 10 or more Olympiad battles (regardless of being a Hero or not) at the end of an Olympiad season (approximately the last Sunday of each month), the player is awarded Olympiad Points from the Olympiad Manager according to their Olympiad Grade, and then receives 20 Marks of Battle per point.
