The battlefield consists of 5 parallel lanes. Enemies spawn in waves. You place defenders on specific tiles. Elemental Synergy: Fire beats Nature, Nature beats Water, Water beats Fire, and Light/Dark are neutral. The "Link" Mechanic: This is the game's signature feature. Placing two defenders of the same element adjacent to each other creates a Mystic Link , granting +15% attack speed. A full row of 5 identical elements triggers a Prismatic Burst , a screen-clearing ultimate ability. | | Cons | | :--- | :---
