Legion - Elysium
Elysium is a web3 play mode of Legion (playable at https://www.play-legion.io) where you can stake SOL tokens on winner-takes-all duels against other players!
Become the best Legion player you can and challenge your friends to high stakes SOL games!
What is Legion?
Legion is a browser-based real-time tactical RPG. You can assemble a team of 3 to 10 characters and battle other players in the arena to climb the ranks of the 5 leagues!
What is the Elysium mode
While Legion is primarily a web2 game, the Elysium mode offers the possibility to duel other players for crypto rewards.
More specifically, in Elysium you can create 1v1 games with specific SOL stakes, and the winner of the games takes it all, minus a 2% fee for the game.
This is the very same game and you will be using the same team of characters as in the web2 version. You can level-up your team and earn gold and items in the normal web2 play modes entirely for free and then choose to create or join staked games whenever you want.
How to play
Setting up
First off, you need to create a Legion account, to receive your first 3 characters and get familiar with the game. Go to https://www.play-legion.io and click "Get started", which will take you through the tutorial.
Secondly, you need a Solana wallet in your browser. If you have one, Elysium will be listed on the /play page as an available Play Mode:
If you do not have a Solana wallet, this play mode will not be available! We recommend Phantom wallet if you need one.
On the Elysium page, click select wallet to connect your wallet. This will allow you to use your funds to pay for stakes in games, in case your in-game balance is insufficient.
Once your wallet is connected, you can consult your SOL balances:
The on-chain balance is the balance of your crypto wallet. The in-game balance is basically the amount of SOL that the game owes you, which you can withdraw to your wallet at any time, or use to play more staked games without withdrawing from your on-chain wallet.
When you stake SOL on a game but the game doesn't start, the stake is immediately refunded to your in-game balance.
When you win a stake games, all your gains are credited to your in-game balance.
If you create or join a staked game, the fee is taken from your in-game balance first.
Creating games
You can use the create game button to create your own game.
You can set the stake as you see fit. The stake is basically the entry fee for the game. E.g. if you set a stake of 0.1 SOL, it means both you and your opponent will pay 0.1 SOL each The winner of the game will then win 0.196 SOL (the sum of the 2 stakes minus a 2% fee).
Once the game is created, you will be redirected to the lobby screen.
There, you can wait until another player who sees your lobby decides to take you up on your challenge for the stake you set. Once a player joins your lobby, the game will start automatically! If you leave this screen, the lobby will be cancelled and the stake refunded to your in-game wallet.
Joining games
Alternatively, if there are already players who have created lobbies and are waiting for opponents, you will see their games listed on the Elysium page.
These cards show you what is the stake for the game, and provide some information about the skill level of the player (ELO rating and league ranking) for you to decide if you want to take your chances! Just click on the card to initiate the process of joining the game.
