During this event, you will join 5v5 battles of 10 minutes, fight against the enemies to capture the Olympia flags. Hold the flags as long as possible to earn more points and win the match!

Quick Champions of Olympia Guide

Champions of Olympia is a 5 vs. 5 game mode.

Each player will be able to use 3 marches with given troops.

Regardless of your power, you will play with T5 units in this event and the troops will be given automatically based on the commanders you use. For example, if you use Aethflead as the primary commander, she will command mixed troops. If you use an Archer commander, you will be given Archer units.

The only buffs that work here are city skin and equipment stats.

Player can invite 4 other friends to the same team or can just randomly find the matches.

A match lasts for 10 minutes.

The map has 3 lanes and 5 flags.

• 1 flag at each side’s starting point.
• 1 flag in the middle
• 1 flag on each side-lane.

Players need to do the battles to capture the flags and start earning points while holding them. The longer you holding it, the more points you get.

Capture the flag by staying in the circle around it for 5 seconds.

If both teams are inside the circle and fighting, the team that has the most marches will keep maintaining the flag if it’s theirs, or start counting to 5 to capture it.

You have to battle inside the circle because you need to bring as many marches into it as possible. You will not be able to see the enemies on the map if you or your friends are not close to them.

There is a bar in the circle showing the score of each team based on the number of dispatches you have. The more marches you have inside the circle, the faster you can capture it.

After capturing the flag, you can move your armies to the small circle nearby to heal your troops. It takes about 20 seconds to fully recover your troops.

You have to choose the skills at the beginning of the match. There are 4 skills you can use in the battle via the menu at the bottom right of the screen, including active and passive skills. There are skills that buff damage, speed, heal, or even turn you into a watchtower.

There is also a new type of health bar in Champions Olympia, which is called Morale. It is the blue bar next to your HP bar.

When you are surrounded, when a nearby teammate falls, or when you lose a type of troop, your morale falls, making your fighting power decreased. The Morale regens over time.

If your marches die, it takes 60 seconds to respawn. However, if you already own a flag, you can revive them much quicker, in just 20 seconds!

Don’t forget that there is a mini-map at the top right of the screen where you can quickly see the situation of the battle, how many flags you have captured, where your friends are, etc. to keep things balanced. If you focus too much in the middle lane, you could lose the other lanes, making you lose the entire battle.

You have to use the Legendary commanders in this event for now. Hopefully, this will be available for Epic Commanders also in the future!

Roles

Depending on your commanders, each player in “Champions of Olympia” should have different roles. We can say that there are 3 types of players in “Champions of Olympia“:

• Offensive: These are players who have strong Cavalry or Archer commanders, who are easy to move around the map constantly to recover and attack positions.
• Defensive: Players with strong Infantry commanders, ideal for protecting positions even when attacking, Keeping the flag safe is their main priority.
• Support: Players with a more passive approach, smart players I would say, avoid going solo fights and ensure the score of the team to achieve victory.

	Your city hall must be at least level 11 to enter the “Champions of Olympia” battlefield
	10 Governors will be divided into two teams of five, who will do battle on a brand-new map. Each map has its own unique gameplay.
	Matches and teams can be cross-server. You can invite other Governors from any Kingdom to join your team, or let the system find a team for you.
	Each Governor can deploy three troops, each of which will use units provided by the system. Troops cannot be changed once the battle starts.
	Each Governors gets to choose one Blessing, as well some skills tied to that specific Blessing which can be used to help you on the battlefield.

Tips for Champions of Olympia

• Before the battle starts, move the marches immediately to the first circle to gain the first points quickly.
• This mode is about organizing strategy and teamwork. It’s not just about kills! If you have fewer kills but more capture time, you will still win!
• There is a skill allowing transform a march into a tower. You cannot utilize the skills of your commanders and cannot target any specific enemy but you will have a bigger range and better tanking ability. If you have an archer commander, you will have the bonus.
• Be fast and rotate quickly!
• Make sure your team has a good way to communicate such as using a voice chat system like Discord.
• Try to distract as many marches as possible while your teammates are grabbing the other flags.
• If you don’t have any top-tier commanders, it’s totally fine to have your fastest marches taking points and rotating fast when your team has the advantages.
• It’s not recommended to split your marches to multiple flags at once.
• The middle flag is the most congested part of the map. If you are new or weaker, try to avoid it.
• It’s not a good idea to just let your troops die as they take 1 minute to respawn.
• Always try to maintain the occupation of 3/5 flags. Maybe you can go for the 4th or 5th flag if the battle becomes easy but better to just stay defending 3/5 and keep the advantage over the enemy team.
• Use the road at all times when moving between flags, this increases the march speed considerably to support or attack flags faster.
• Don’t let your marches fall in combat, whenever they are injured, pull them back in time using the road and heal them at your nearest flag. Whenever they fall, you would be ineffective for almost 1 minute.
• Play smart, if you have strong enemies, avoiding some fights is a strategy and it is not cowardly. You win by playing smart to capture the flags, not killing.
• “The Forest” is one of the main features in “Champions of Olympia” to create strategies and avoid enemies, it limits the vision of the troops. It is important to capture the corresponding flag of this point and take advantage of key moments, thanks to its poor vision and elusive chances of avoiding persecution.
• Don’t fight outside the flags, this is a bad strategy because it makes our defending or attacking position ineffective and the enemy can take it to get points.
• Always keep the occupation of our first flag, if the enemy takes it, they can attack from any point and not let you get to the starting area to recover points, it is the most important flag.
• The middle flag is extremely important to possess, thanks to the fast access route that it provides to the remaining 4. You can heal your troops with it and then quickly support any of the other 4 flags in just a few seconds.
• Avoiding the “Swamp” points indicated on the map decreases our defense and march speed.
• Watch the retreat of the enemy, their troops will go to heal at their nearest flag but while they are attacked within that point, they will not be able to heal.
• Use the selected skills wisely both in defensive and offensive positions as they have a Cooldown of 180s.

Blessing

Bravery: Ares lives to fight. Warrior with his blessing and fierce and fearless on the battlefield ever-ready to charge into the fray.

Swiftness: Coming soon…

Wisdom: Coming soon…

Shadow: Coming soon…

Tap the zoom button on the mini-map to see the big map.

Tap a target on the big map to give orders to your troops. For example, tapping an allied troop’s icon will order your troops to rally to them. Tapping an empty space on the map will send a “Watch Out” message.

Tap and hold a target icon and signal your teammates to hold on, retreat or reinforce after sending a signal, you must wait a little while before sending another one.

What is MVP?

The MVP, or most valuable player, of each game is awarded to the player who performs the most actions per minute and provides the most support to the team.

Sometimes, you can see MVP players having fewer kills than others because of the constant crucial support he/she provides in each part of the map.

Capturing flags in from enemy positions is one of the strongest factors of the score system. Each tick that you increase in the flag marker in your favor is very crucial.

It is also important to not let your troops die too much.
