Tournament of Power

Spend "Tournament Participation Points" to clear spaces on the map and reach the boss at the end.
In addition, you will receive points toward your Battle Score upon clearing battles, which will determine your ranking among other players.
The Tournament of Power is divided into seasons, and rewards can be earned based on your Battle Score results at the end of each season (rewards will be distributed when you join the next season).
The Tournament of Power is divided into "Leagues," and players with the highest Battle Score results will be promoted to a higher-level League the following season, while players with the lowest scores will be demoted.

Battles consist of four turns with a maximum of six versus six characters.
Characters attack in order of highest Ki Recovery, and the turn will end when everyone has attacked.
After four turns, a Rising Rush will be used by the player's side only.
Damage for this Rising Rush will be based on character stats and Element (dis)advantage. It will not be affected by Placement or Line Bonuses.
The winner is the one who eliminates all of their opponent's characters or the one who inflicted more damage during the battle.

Players who participate in the Tournament of Power are grouped into "Leagues".
You can be promoted or demoted to another League based on your Battle Score results at the end of each season.
The higher level the League, the more difficult the battles will become.
In addition, players who did not participate in the Tournament of Power during a season will be demoted for the following season.

Form a dedicated team to use in battle.
You can place 6 characters in the 3x3 spaces.
In addition, you can register backup characters that you can switch with your team's characters during the Map Capture phase.
You can also change the Equipment and Attack Arts that your team's characters will use during battle.

*Changes to Shallot's transformation or Costume will also be reflected in the Tournament of Power.

This is your characters' remaining health.
A certain amount of your characters' health is restored after each battle in the Tournament of Power.
Except in the case of a loss, if a character's health falls to zero, they will not revive after the battle, and you will not be able to use them in future ones.

This is your characters' current Special Move Gauge charge.
Once fully charged, you can use that character's Special Move.

You can switch characters between your team and backup characters during Map Capture.
Check what characters your opponent will use in the next battle and adjust your team accordingly.

These points are used to progress through spaces in the Tournament of Power.
You will recover Tournament Participation Points over time at set intervals.

Spend Tournament Participation Points to advance through spaces.
Spaces each have their own events when you land on them, such as battles or recovery.

Map Capture begins on the Start space.
You can edit your team formation here, so be sure to plan for the battles ahead.

Battle spaces are where you fight against enemies. The higher the difficulty level, the more powerful they will be.
When confirming your movement before a battle, you can tap the enemy's icon to set the order of which enemies to prioritize in battle.
Battles will be performed automatically, and you can see the battle results and other details after it ends.
The amount of points you earn towards your Battle Score is determined by various aspects of the battle.

These spaces are where you fight enemies who are much more powerful than on regular battle spaces.

When characters with certain Traits participate in the Tournament of Power, the following effects can activate.
*Traits can be checked from a character's "Regular Stats" on their details screen.

1. Transform
The character will transform at the start of a specified turn.
*Some characters' transformations will end after a certain number of turns, and others' will not.

2. Tag
The character will perform a Tag Switch at the end of each turn. When a Tag Switch is performed, the character's Element may change or be reversed.
*Tag Characters' Elements can be checked from their Element icons or from their details screens.
*If the conditions are met for "Synchro Gauge" or "Succession", the "Tag" effect will stop activating.

3. Synchro Gauge
The character will fuse at the end of a specified turn.

4. Revive and Revive (Chance)
The character will revive with a certain amount of health when their health reaches zero. When reviving, the character may transform or switch.
*Once revived, the revived status will remain even after the battle ends.

5. Succession
The character's health will be restored by a certain amount and they will switch to a specified character when their health reaches zero.
*After succession, the change will remain even after the battle ends.

*If a character has one of these Traits and there is a button for an additional state on their "Regular Stats" screen, but that button is not shown on their "ToP Stats" screen, it is because that effect will not activate in the Tournament of Power.
E.g. A character has both "Tag" and "Succession", but the "After Succession" button is not shown on their "ToP Stats" screen. "Succession" will not activate for that character.

The front, middle, and back rows of your team formation's 3x3 grid each have a bonus effect that can help you fight more effectively. The bonus effects received depend on which row a character is placed in.

On Battle spaces, there are certain positions in the 3x3 grid where you place characters that grant useful buffs for that battle.
Make sure to place characters in those spots to power them up.

Land on these spaces to recover your characters' health.
This will also restore health to characters who have been defeated.

You can receive the following effects upon landing on these spaces:
1. All characters on your team and in backup will have their health and Special Move Gauges averaged together. Characters with zero health are also included and will be revived in the process.
Plus, all characters will recover a small amount of health.

2. You can swap out characters from your team or backup with other characters you own. If you do, new characters will inherit the health and Special Move Gauges of the characters they are swapped with.

3. You can change the Tournament of Power Equipment being used by the characters on your team and in backup.

These are points you earn by battling.
Your ranking in the Tournament of Power is determined by your Battle Score.
You can also receive rewards based on your battle score.

Your ranking is determined by the accumulated Battle Score you earn through battles.
You will receive an Overall Ranking, which is your position among all other players, and a League Ranking, which is where you stand within your current League.
Your Overall Ranking determines what rewards you receive at the end of the season.
Your League Ranking is what determines whether you will be promoted or demoted for the following season.

During a season, the same map may be attempted up to two times. Whichever attempt has the highest Battle Score will be registered for the rankings.
When attempting the Tournament of Power again, the health, Special Move Gauges, transformations, etc. of all main and backup members, as well as your Battle Score, will be reset. Only your Tournament Participation Points will be carried over.

You can use this feature to automatically proceed through spaces in the Tournament of Power.
Once you set how many Tournament Participation Points you want to use, the game will play the applicable number of spaces for you.
Battle spaces will be given the highest priority when movement is being determined.
Auto Mode will end when either your set Tournament Participation Points are used up or when you lose a battle.

You can check your battle results during the season here.
You are also able to watch a replay each battle.

A character's Friendship Rank has an effect on their stats.
All stats will increase by 0.5% each time you increase their Friendship Rank, up to a maximum of 5%.

You will get a bonus to the amount of points you earn towards your Battle Score if you battle with Boost Characters in your team.
The more Boost Characters you battle with, the greater the bonus will be.

If you lose a battle, your party will be fully healed on that space, but you will lose your Consecutive Win Bonus.
If you lose to the Boss at the end of the map, you will be sent back one space.

You can only use specialized Tournament of Power Equipment in the Tournament of Power.
You can change your Tournament of Power Equipment on the starting team formation screen and on Reform Team spaces.
Keep in mind that you cannot use regular Equipment.
