The bad tongues will say that the gacha games, which are numerous on mobile, leave more room for the lottery than for skill. Luck does not smile on players in the same way, and depending on the draw, they can obtain more or less powerful heroes. But with theWar of Wits event, everything is back on track on AFK Arena. It's time for a duel! It's up to you to prove your worth and tactical skills in 1v1. Players are deprived of their best characters and strategy has never played such an important role.

If War of Wits sounds like déjà vu, it's because it was inspired by a previous event. Battle of Blood is only a few months old, but given its success in the community, it's not surprising to see this 1v1 mode revived by Lilith Games.

AFK Arena offers a tutorial to get you started in this event.

War of Wits: an accelerated duel mode

The aim of the War of Wits event is to offer an alternative PvP game mode that makes players happy. However, beyond the fun, there will be a special leaderboard for the occasion. It's up to you to go for the top spot!

War of Wits : list of heroes — *Here is the list of heroes available during War of Wits.*

In War of Wits, players will have a deck of 40 cards (consisting of heroes and relics). They start with two cards in their hand and each turn they can draw one more card from the 4 choices offered. They must then deploy their strategy by sending their heroes to the battlefield. Be careful to take into account the weaknesses and strengths of each player and to play your relic cards at the right time to surprise your enemy. Heroes can be selected from 4 factions. Playing at least 3 heroes from the same faction offers a powerful collective bonus. There is also a small difference compared to Battle of Blood. By drawing a copy of a hero, you have the possibility to upgrade it by merging the two cards.

Get Talene for free

War of Wits will offer players the opportunity to obtain Talene, the Rising Phoenix, for free. She belongs to the Celestial faction and plays a supporting role. With her fiery skills, she will raise the temperature on the battlefield.

To get Talene, all you have to do is play at least 20 duels before February 26th! The duels are not long and this threshold should be reached quickly. But that's no reason to delay too long 😉
