The StarSharks.Warriors game is a turn-based card game where the goal is to eliminate all sharks of your opponent. Each round, a player must strategically use their cards to maximize their chances of victory.

Shark Card

Each shark has skills that come from four of its body parts ( head, mouth, dorsal fin, and tail fin) two skill cards can be used per round.

Battle phase

  1. Both players will be given 6 random cards initially and 3 random cards at the beginning of each round. Once both players click the “fight” button, the battle will start immediately without waiting for the countdown.
  2. Card shield points will be applied immediately once the round starts.
  3. Buffs and debuffs will be applied once the sharks cast their skill cards or combo cards.
  4. Speed buff bonuses that affect the order of strike will be applied in the next round.
  5. Sharks will attack the closest targets with the exception of those skill cards that can attack the back row directly. (Note: Please use the attack indicators.)
  6. After 10 rounds you will experience system-generated damage per round. At the 11th round, a deduction of 80HP, at the 12th round a deduction of 160HP, the next rounds can be deduced through analogy. This is done to speed up the end of the game.
  7. It is considered a draw when all of the sharks on both sides get knocked out in the same round.
  8. Extra damage = card damage * skill/500.

Combat Strategy

Save Energy: Most of the skill cards, in addition to damage, come with a certain level of the shield. If an attack is made in every turn on your opponent’s shield, it will be almost impossible to kill your opponent’s shark. A turn can be let go by not making use of but saving energy and skill cards to use combined in the next turn which will make it easier to destroy your opponent.

Attacking the back-line: As mentioned earlier, front-line sharks are most likely to have high HP and your opponent may be making use of this strategy. A surprise attack can be made on your opponent’s flank using special skill cards thereby lowering your opponent’s power and then moving on to easily defeat the front line.

Focused Attack: Do not attack a different shark in every round, it is important to have a main shark to focus your attack on.

Foresight: This requires a high degree of speculation, to predict which shark your opponent will attack in the next turn and make a corresponding defense to protect your Shark from getting killed.

Combat Lineup

In combat, you need to consume energy to use skill cards, the first round will have 3 energy points, each round will restore 2 energy points (PvE mode has one extra added energy point compared to PvP mode).

The two back rows should be two attack/ support Sharks; attack Sharks are high morale Godzilla Shark and Rock Shark which can provide high damage which will be in exchange for high HP and shield; the two support Sharks are Crocodile and Coryx Shark, they enable you to put down a high damage shark before it can attack.

If all sharks end up belonging to the same race, try to make sure the front-line shark has access to high shield and recovery skills. The back row sharks with high morale need to have high damage skills and the high-speed sharks need to have fast strike skills.
