About Clashmon

ClashMon: Ignition is a web browser-based collectible RPG game that redefines the gaming experience within the web3 ecosystem. By offering an exciting journey of collecting unique characters and assembling powerful teams, Clashmon ensures users encounter the ultimate fun of gaming. The game focuses on delivering enjoyment through character growth and anticipation of valuable returns, all seamlessly integrated into the web3 gaming world.

Unique Features

At ClashMon, we firmly believe that true gaming pleasure lies within the web3 ecosystem, where gamers can fully immerse themselves in an unparalleled experience of fun and excitement. Our mission is to deliver a gaming adventure, ensuring that users can seamlessly partake in the thrill of web3 services while enjoying our captivating game to the fullest.

In the ever-evolving landscape of web3 games, we acknowledge the challenges faced by some of our predecessors. Many games with similar aspirations have emerged in the past couple of years, unfortunately, met with failure. We have identified their pitfalls: a fundamental “lack of fun” in the gaming experience and a failure to effectively manage users’ expectations concerning returns. To break this cycle, our core focus lies in two crucial aspects. Firstly, we are committed to providing game content that has been meticulously crafted for pure enjoyment, ensuring our players are captivated at every turn. Secondly, we understand the importance of managing users’ expectations regarding returns, fostering a sustainable environment where players revisit and engage in the game, thus creating a higher demand for assets and bolstering the robust value of assets within the world of ClashMon.

Join us on this thrilling journey as we redefine the concept of gaming with ClashMon, and together, we’ll forge an enduring legacy within the web3 gaming realm.

Game Contents

Battle(B-612 Camp)
The B-612 Camp allows users to try out Clashmons that they don’t have. There is no limit to the number of challenges, and with the same SR Clashmons, you can create strategies and tactics based on affinities, skills, positions, attributes, and team compositions. The Clashmons provided for team compositions are refreshed once every three days.

Battle(Arena)
Arena is a chance for users to earn rewards and mystery boxes as well as train with their own deck. Arenas offers competitive gameplay where you fight for a reward: Upon victory, you will earn rewards equal to the entry fee and forgo the fee if lost. Meanwhile, each win separately increases your Victory Points. Higher the Victory Points, higher stakes you can (bet). By paying a small cost, you can check the opposing team’s lineup and increase your chances of winning.

Battle(Championship)
Championships are tournament-style match contents. Each tournament round lasts for a certain period (e.g. 2 weeks) and earmarks a total prize pool in Torch, ClashMon’s in-game currency.

Tickets are required to play matches: You get one free ticket each day and additional tickets can be obtained mainly at the Bank or Quest.

Users will be encouraged to earn as many victory points as possible during the round to claim the prize tiered by rank. Each win adds 10 Victory Points and each loss subtracts 5 which means you’d need to play many matches to collect more Victory Points, not just vying for victory.

As the new round takes off, the victory points of all tournament participants will be reset to 1,000 and they will be able to battle any opponent of their choice, which will be randomly matched based on their victory points. The higher the victory points, the more likely you are to face a stronger opponent, making it harder to increase your victory points.

Galactic Shot
Galactic Shot allows multiple users to mingle and play together in real-time. Players can bet as many Torches as they want as they try to escape from an appropriate multiple number before it stops growing in real-time.

Galactic Shot offers an additional way for users to earn Torches quickly without spending a lot of time and effort.

Fishing
Users can experience the thrill of fishing with the captivating Clashmons in the ‘Fishing Deck’: users are to acquire fish through fishing which can be exchanged for Torch in the store.

The higher the deck’s stats and equipment (fishing rods, hooks and bait) level, the greater the chance of reeling in rarer and more expensive fish which can be exchanged for higher rewards.

We now have 3 fishing spots ready which are limited by your level. While the exchange rate for fish and Torch remains fixed, the types of fish that can be sold for more rewards will change depending on what event ClashMon has for you.

Utility Contents

1. Forge: perform Clashmon synthesis(fusion), equipment enhancement(enchant), and equipment disassembly(extraction)

Fusion: synthesize 2 Clashmons of the same rank to obtain a Clashmon of the next higher rank using Kryptons. If you use two same Clashmons, then the result will be the same one of a higher rank. If you use two different Clashmons, then the result will be a random one.

Enchant: enhance your equipment using Rubystones.

Extraction: extract Rubystones from your equipment.

2. Store: where you can flex/pay with Torch

Summon Clashmons: 500 Torches for Advanced Summons, 50 Torches for Normal Summons.

The probability of outcomes from advanced summons is as follows:
N: 15%, R: 75%, S: 8%, SR: 1.7%, SSR: 0.3%

The probability of outcomes from normal summons is as follows:
N: 86.7%, R: 12%, S: 1.3%

Sell Fish: exchange your catch for Torches. Fish can be sold at a high price on certain date.

Open Mystery Boxes: buy keys(normal, rare, epic) to open mystery boxes. Keys are used to unlock Mystery Boxes. The contents of the Mystery Box vary depending on its type(Fish, Arena, Championship).

3. Bank: deposit Torch or ClashMon, get valuable items

Deposit Torches to earn Rubystone (enhancement stones) or Krypton (synthetic stones). Tournament tickets are also achievable through depositing Clashmons.

Reward rates increase as the amount and duration of deposits increase (verification required).

The amount of compensation is calculated by the quantity and period of the saved goods and the total amount of the goals stored in the Bank

For reference, the goods saved during the deposit period are locked and cannot be used, and there is a free for acquiring(harvesting) rewards.

4. Purse: in-app purchase, shards, and on-chain wallet

In-app purchase
We implemented in-app purchase solution. You can purchase paid packages. Miners can also be purchased.

Summon using shards
If you have 50 shards of a kind of Clashmon, you can summon the Clashmon.

On/off-chain transfer
You can bring on-chain assets into the game or send in-game assets to the on-chain via Wallet. Wallet should be connected to the account. You can use external wallet(e.g. Metamask, Coinbase Wallet, etc) as well. To prevent abusing, withdrawals to personal wallets are prohibited for one month only for Torches from Miners.

Economy

Assets: As explained in the content ‘In-game Assets’, there are several types of assets in ClashMon. Each asset has its own intrinsic value, and it can be varied. However, Clashmon and Torch are the most crucial ones among these.

1. Clashmon as a tradable asset

Clashmons are mandatory for you to play the game which allows you to experience the thrill of nurturing and earning. The higher the level your Clashmon is, the higher scarcity and value it has, thus traded at a higher price on the market.

To prevent the Clashmons from being issued and liquidated recklessly, posing downward pressure on the market price, we have put in place a mechanism that requires a certain amount of time, effort, and money to acquire a Clashmon of a liquidatable tier. Clashmons are traded in the form of NFT.

You can enjoy ClashMon’s various contents including battle, fishing, and galactic shot to the fullest. However, we recommend you to form a deck composed of 5 Clashmons to maximize combat and fishing result.

There are three types of Clashmons (offensive, defensive, and hybrid) which will have a different distribution of basic stats. They also have attributes (water, fire, and nature) as well which may be compatible or not to one another. The compatibility impacts the battle result as the match is randomly mapped.

There are 7 ranks to Clashmons, N, R, S, SR, SSR, UR, and LR, which can be promoted through synthesis(fusion). Clashmons also be equipped with gears and, the higher your ranking is, the more slots you can put on.

Acquiring Clashmons
Clashmons can be acquired by spinning Gacha in Store or by summoning them from Purse after collecting a certain number of shards that can be earned during game play. Also, you can buy Clashmons in NFT marketplace such as ISKRA marketplace or OpenSea.

Staking Clashmons
Deposit unequipped Clashmons in Bank to earn tickets for the battles in Championship.

Selling Clashmons
Clashmons of tier 4 and above can be pulled out to an external wallet and traded on NFT exchanges such OpenSea with anyone.​

2. Torch as a tradable asset

Torch serves as a currency that players can utilize in and out of the game. Torch can not only be utilized in multiple areas in the game but also be exchanged for other assets, once taken out of the game. Conversely, you can also earn Torches outside of the game and bring them into the game to be utilized further.

Torches can also function as a medium of exchange due to their nature — being abundant in liquidity compared to other goods in ClashMon. The price of Torches fluctuates based on market supply and demand. Torches are traded in the form of FT(Fungible Token).

Players’ Acquisition of Torch = Supply of Torch (Faucet)
- Exchange catch for Torch at Store
- Receive prize from Championship
- Complete quests

Players’ Usage of Torch = Return of Torch (Sink)
- Arena: Fee for victory in battle (10% of winnings)
- Galactic Shot: Survival fee (10% of the amount received)
- Store: To purchase key, summons and package
- Forge: Fee payable for synthesis, enhancement, and disassembly
- Bank: Staking fee

Players’ Staking of Torch = Lock-up of Torch (Deposit)
- Bank: Deposit Torch for acquiring Krypton or Rubystone

3. Agni: Issuance and Operation of Governance Token

The $AGNI token has a significant role within the Clashmon ecosystem. Functioning as the governing mechanism and primary currency, it holds crucial responsibilities in driving various aspects of the Clashmon, including community incentives, ecosystem expansion, investment, and many more.

While specific plans regarding its distribution and allocation are yet to be determined, it’s worth noting that there’s a potential for the distribution of $AGNI tokens through an airdrop to $TORCH (Utility Token) holders.

From blazing $TORCH utility to blazing trails with $AGNI governance. Get ready to reignite the game and stay tuned for an explosive fusion of power: $TORCH + $AGNI = $WAGMI

The issuance of $AGNI (Governance Token) has not been definitively confirmed as of now. A comprehensive assessment of the requirements for the issuance of the governance token is currently in progress. The final decision regarding the issuance will be made after a thorough evaluation.
