Controls to learn first
Check
The game runs on PC, mobile, and console, so the key names below apply to PC. Get these into muscle memory before you worry about anything else.
- M1 punch and deal damage to an opponent
- Q dash to move quickly or dodge an incoming attack
- F block to reduce damage from enemy hits
- G activate Awakening to enter a powerful temporary state
- B open the Emote Wheel for reactions after a fight
- Double-tap W break into a run for faster movement
Basic combat flow
Tips
Every fight comes down to watching what your opponent does and reacting faster than they can recover.
- String punches together — land M1 hits in quick succession while the opponent cannot counter
- Dash to create space — when a heavy attack is coming, press Q to get out of range rather than standing still
- Block as a backup — F reduces incoming damage, but it does not bring it to zero
- Save Awakening for the right moment — G makes you significantly stronger
Building your fighting style with spells
Tips
Punches and dashes form the foundation, but spells are what make each player's approach unique. Two players using the same character can fight completely differently depending on which spells they have learned.
- Try every spell you unlock to find out which ones feel natural in your hands
- Combine spells with punch strings — use a spell to open a gap, then follow up with M1 hits
- Watch strong players during and after matches to see how they blend spells into their movement
- Fight the same opponent more than once — their habits become readable after a few rounds
