Guide Axie Infinity

  Like real-world pets, Axies can be bred to create new offspring. These offspring can be used in battle, breed new offspring, or can be sold on our marketplace. In order to manage the Axie population, breeding has certain resource requirements. Want a full overview of our breeding system? Check out a full guide here! Each Axie can be bred a maximum of 7 times. Breeds cost AXS as well as Small Love Potions. Small Love potions can be earned by playing the game in PvE Adventure mode as well as the PvP Arena. Once you earn them, you can sync them to your wallet from this page. Please note that it takes 2 weeks before you can claim your first SLP. After this first claim, you can claim once every 2 week.

  Tips Almost all plant class cards are good tank cards. Reptile and aquatic cards can also be tank cards. Self healing cards such as Shiitake and Rosebud can make a tank more resilient.

Sacrifice survivability (HP & shield) for damage output. Here are some examples of good damage-dealing Axies: Tips Speed can be useful on damage dealing Axies, allowing them to incapacitate an Axie before it can attack. The skill stat adds damage on combos. Bird & Beast cards are almost always good damage dealing cards. Morale increases chance to critical strike, dealing 100% more damage on an attack.

  Please check this guide for an overview of the buffs and debuffs that can effect Axies during battle. This guide has an awesome overview of the math that goes into determining the exact damage and shield Axies receive while playing cards! Starter Teams Due to the mechanics of the game, most new players field teams that consist of 1 “defender” and 2 “attacker” Axies. The tank should be placed in the front of your team so that it draws incoming attacks like you can see in this example.

  Battle System Mechanics The Axie battle system is turn-based card game where the goal is to eliminate all enemies your team of 3 Axies is facing. Each turn, a player must strategically play cards that maximize their chance of victory.

  Classes Each Axie has a class which is similar to the “types” from Pokemon. Each class is weak and strong against other classes. When calculating damage, the card class of the attacking move is compared to the Axie class of the defender. This means that a Bird card used to an attack a Beast Axie will deal 15% additional damage. A Beast card used to attack an Aquatic Axie will deal 15% less damage. In addition, when an Axie of a certain class uses a card from its class it gets a 10% attack/shield bonus. For example, a Plant Axie playing a plant card will receive 10% extra attack/shield. Important to note is that these bonuses stack. A Beast Axie using a Beast card against a Plant target will do 25% (10% + 15%) more damage. Classes also effect the stats that an Axie has. Please review this sheet for an overview of how the stat & class system work.

  Body Parts Each Axie has 6 body parts: eyes, ears, horn, mouth, back, and tail. Horns, Mouths, Backs, and Tails determine which cards an Axie can use in battle. Each body part adds stats depending on the class of the part:
