The interaction between champion abilities is designed as a rock-paper-scissors system, encouraging players to discover effective team compositions.

Esports Focus: The game was designed with an esports presence in mind, aiming to be an event at QuakeCon. This suggests that options related to competitive play, such as performance settings and network options, would be crucial for players aiming for a professional level.
