AI-Controlled Guardians, and then custom match is fairly self-explanatory. Elite Battlegrounds takes out the time limit and does not allow matchmaking to throw in AI-Controlled Guardians to either side, so you have to wait on 10 people which can be an issue. Battlegrounds is 5v5 competitive play, with a time-limit of 20 minutes to move things along. You will have four options of game modes in the game: Battlegrounds, Elite Battlegrounds, Skirmish, and custom match.
All of these things can be purchased with the gold that you acquire through your games.Īll this talk and I have yet to touch on the most important part of the game – gameplay. The gems and relics act as buffs that you can equip to your belt to increase ability damage, health, and much more. As you level up, you will unlock higher tiers of these powers to equip. Commands are god-like powers that players can unlock and equip. Only four potions can be mapped to the d-pad during a battle, so be careful which ones you choose. There are also plenty of big names from the books and movies, such as Legolas, Gollum, Eowyn, and the big bad Sauron.Īs you progress through the game, you will also gain money to buy potions, commands, guardian belts, gems, and relics. With over 20 evil and good characters in the game and with most of them needing to be purchased, there is always someone new to try and buy. There is more to just the type of character you pick though, as you will want to also check out each individual Guardians stats which show their own damage, ability damage, survivability, and difficulty. Enchanters are all about ability damage Defenders are designed to support their allies Warriors have a good balance between attack and survivability Strikers are your DPS, and a Tactician controls the battlefield with buffs and traps. These Guardians come in different class types Defender, Striker, Enchanter, Tactician, and Warrior. Just like League of Legends, players will need to select a single guardian before setting off into the battlefield. Even better is the user interface, which is easy to use and keep track of. I can’t think of a better way to set this up, it really works well. Attacks and leveling up your spells are kept up on the top on the triggers. All of your spells and abilities are left to the face buttons, potions to the d-pad. The controls are extremely well done and provide themselves quite nicely to the DualShock 3 controller. Those fears were quelled rather quickly, as a 15 minute tutorial to start the game showed me just how easy the game is to pick up. One of my first fears going into this review was how well the controls would translate to the consoles and how difficult it would be to pick it up.
