    Default Thunderdome/Abilities/Items How-To!


    A How-To Guide to Thunderdome!
    STATS


    Each character has a set of statistics, with both a strength and weakness. The opposing side will never see the individual cards, so be sure to keep your stats a SECRET from other teams!

    Have you ever played Top Trumps? Because it's going to be a little bit like that, for an example to show you how to do this... I made up a set of character cards! Neither of these characters feature in the event.

    Each character in this event has 200HP.

    So, how do we take down the opponents HP?

    Well, you see those stats there? THAT'S HOW! Each opponent will take it in turns to choose a stat to fight with. So let's say that in this round, Edea goes first - she chooses MAG, she has 140 MAG, whereas Sabin only has 50...

    The difference between the two number is the amount of HP that the losing side will lose. In this case, it is Sabin who loses 90HP.

    Sabin - 110/200
    Edea - 200/200

    Sabin's turn! He is going to hit Edea with STR! Edea loses!

    Sabin - 110/200
    Edea - 120/200

    Ahhh! What will Edea do? She has already used MAG, so cannot use it again... This time, she's going to go for SPD!
    It does not work in her favour!

    Sabin - 110/200
    Edea - 80/200

    Sabin opts to use DEF! Edea loses a futher 30HP

    Sabin - 110/200
    Edea - 50/200

    She goes back to her strength! MAGD! Sabin loses another 90HP (OUCH!)

    Sabin - 20/200
    Edea - 50/200

    At this point, all stats have been played! Edea has more HP than Sabin, EDEA WINS!

    However, Sabin could have been smart and used an item to restore some of his HP earlier in the match... If Sabin had used a Hi-Potion at the right time, Sabin might have won.... But in this case, Sabin was outmatched by Edea on the stats overall... Poor Sabin


    In the actual Thunderdome, only 4 stats will be played as each character's points are even, unlike in this match! So carry on reading to find out how else you can play your hand in the Thunderdome...
