Major Update: Play He is Coming With a Friend!
[p]This update brings a different kind of confrontation to Kingmaker, the sort you can’t prepare for by theory alone. [/p][p]Until now, every fight lived in its own little bottle: builds saved, uploaded, preserved, and faced long after the person behind them had stepped away from the screen. It worked, in the way museum pieces work, but it also left a quiet gap. You never felt the pressure of someone making decisions at the same time you were making yours.[/p][p]Real-time 1v1 battles step into that gap. Two players, one seed, and a set of choices that begin together but drift apart as soon as the run starts to breathe. You move through five stages, each one its own small test, until one of you reaches three wins. [/p][p]What you get is simple: Just the steady back-and-forth of two people trying to outthink each other with whatever their run happens to give them.[/p][p]Now let's get into the details.
New Feature: Real-Time 1v1 Battles[/p][p]This update introduces a major new way to play: real-time 1v1 battles. Until now, all encounters in the PvP mode, Kingmaker, have been asynchronous, where players faced uploaded builds rather than each other directly. [/p][p]With this update, you can now challenge a friend and try to outsmart each other in real-time. Challenge your friend to a friendly or unfriendly duel to see who comes out on top. [/p][p]Both players start from the same seed, but the path you take and the choices you make will decide the outcome. Battle your friends in 5 stages, where the first player to win 3 battles takes home the victory.[/p][p][/p][p]![]()
