Urban Rivals is a massively multiplayer online virtual trading card game.[1]
General information
Urban Rivals is an online multi-player card game. Each card represents a character (some of which are based on real people or well-known fictional characters). Each character has a specific Power and Damage, and belongs to a clan. Some cards have abilities that are either triggered or countered by another card's ability. However, a card should be at a certain level to reach that ability.
Free registration gives a player 8 character cards; further cards can be purchased.[2] Four new character(sometimes 6 character mainly for a new clan) cards are released every two weeks.[3] Usually every 6 months a new clan will come out..The newest is jungo or an animal clan
The game uses affiliate marketing to encourage existing players to recruit or sponsor new players; such sponsors can offer bonuses for purchases of credits, describing them as cheat codes.[4]
Gameplay
 |
After each fight, players receive battle points. These points are used to upgrade one's player level. More points are earned from fighting against a player with a higher ranking, from having a character defeat a higher level opponent, or leveling up after a fight. A bonus is given if a player has Pillz remaining after inflicting a KO. But if the battle times out, whoever caused the game to time out gets -20 battle point in normal mode or elo points(the same as if you have lost to the opp) in elo.
Characters receive experience after each fight, with which they level up and become stronger. The current level is displayed on the character's card with yellow stars. The total number of stars shows the maximum level.The total number of exp gain by unevolved character are shown in the top right corner.Characters earn more XP when fighting characters at higher level and when they win.[5]
A player's level is based on their current number of battle points. When a player reaches Level 5, they can join a Guild. Upon reaching Level 10, they can create their own Guild. Upon reaching Level 15, they can play in ELO mode. In all cases, every time the player reaches levels 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50, they get a free Leader card.[6]
Clintz are the currency in Urban Rivals. They may be obtained by fighting, selling characters, or winning tournaments.
Credits may be purchased for money, and used to buy booster packs. They can also be earned from ELO tournaments and from daily tournaments.
Tournaments
Every other hour, there are one-hour tournaments where players have the opportunity to win Clintz or free credits. There are also more strategy-based ELO tournaments, which last a week. In ELO, players start out with 1000 points. A player can challenge anyone up to 150 points above him/her, or up to 50 points below.[7] Players gain more points from defeating higher-point opponents, but will also lose more points if they lose to low-point opponents. If you do not play in ELO for a few days, your score will gradually reset to 1000. At the end of the week, 12 random players who are the top tier which is the top 100 receive a CR (collector card). 50 random players above 1200 points receive a random Rare card." You would also win credits such as top 1 gain 50 credits,top 5 gain 30 credits,top 25 gets 20 credits,player with elo point equal or above 1300 gain 5 and all player below that who have played atleast 5 elo matches will gain 2 credits.
