The entire combat system is just a highly complex, beautifully animated game of Rock, Paper, Scissors.

In this digital version, the triangle consists of Swarms, Area-of-Effect (Splash) Damage, and High Single-Target Damage.
The Core Mechanics
The rules of the arena are simple: Swarms overwhelm Single-Target units; Splash Damage obliterates Swarms; and Single-Target units destroy Splash Damage.

Finally, the Wizard (Splash) will incinerate the entire Skeleton Army (Swarm) in a single fiery blast, completing the circle.
Balance is mandatory.Reaction time matters.Spells are the ultimate wildcards. Breaking the Triangle
If your opponent only has one 'Scissors' (Splash spell) in their deck, and you bring three 'Papers' (Swarms), they literally cannot stop you.

This high-level psychological warfare turns the simple combat triangle into a complex game of mental chess.

If Splash units become too strong, nobody will play Swarms, and Single-Target units will dominate the ladder.

Always respect the fundamental rules of combat before attempting complex maneuvers.
