One lane, one screen
you see what your units see
Free to play, no account needed
A 1v1 duel down a single corridor, and now 2v2, two a side on the same lane. A bot holds every empty seat, so there is a match running the moment you arrive. Watch it, or sit down and play it, and the winner keeps the seat. No download, and no sign-up needed.
the classic game, in three
One tower each, and a wave of creeps every twenty seconds. Last-hit creeps for gold and push with the wave. There is no shop to spend the gold in. Taking the tower is what wins the match; kills only buy you the room to do it.
A solo mid game. Every arena starts on Solo Mid, a duel down the middle; the people sitting in one can make it 2v2, or pick a custom map for it, walls and three lanes among them. You choose which side you sit on, so two people who turn up together can play on the same team.
You see what your own units see, and a tower sees further than a champion does. Ground you walk out of stays lit for a couple of seconds and then closes over. There is no minimap; the whole lane is already on your screen.
hover one. every screen below is the real game
Each weapon keeps its own cooldown, and the two triggers share it. A switch costs you a moment to raise the new gun, and the new gun does not inherit the old one's clock, so putting a spent weapon away and drawing a cool one is a real move.
what the page does while you are not playing
Arriving does not sit you down. A game is already running in front of you, with a bot in every seat nobody is in, and you can pick either champion by name and let the camera follow them.
One press takes the seat off the bot, and everybody ready starts the match: on Solo Mid, or on a map the people sitting down picked and all readied on. If somebody is waiting to play, a clock hands them an idle seat. Change your mind and leave the seat: you are back to watching and the bot has it again.
If both seats are taken you get in line. The winner keeps the seat and the loser goes to the back of the queue. Your place follows you out of the room, so you can wait for arena 3 while watching the better fight in arena 9.
ranked
Claim a handle and your duels on Solo Mid start counting. Sign in with a passkey, which is your fingerprint or your face or the device in your hand, or with an email and a password if you would rather. Beat a signed-in player and you take points off them. Lose and they take yours. A stranger who has not signed in is worth nothing.
The end screen tells you what the duel cost you and where you now stand. The ladder is the top hundred, and it is at most a minute old.
