Axie Infinity Beginners Guide and Tips

Axie Infinity has been a major topic this year as it gains popularity in countries such as the Philippines, where players earn a cryptocurrency called Small Love Potion (SLP), which can be converted via crypto-exchanges to fiat real-world paper money. Sky Mavis owns the game, as well as the Axie Infinity game launcher hub, the Ronin wallet (Crypto & NFT), the Axie marketplace, and the popular Play-to-Earn game Axie Infinity. In this beginners guide, we will do a quick rundown on Axie Infinity and to have a better understanding of what it actually is.

What is Axie Infinity

Axie Infinity is a game about breeding, growing, and battling cute creatures known as Axies. NFTs are used to purchase axies and virtual real estate (Lands) through an in-game marketplace. The majority of transactions take place on Ronin, a fast, customized sidechain built by developer Sky Mavis to have lower fees than the main Ethereum blockchain.

Axie Infinity sets itself apart from many different games as it is made to be a play to earn game, with players able to sell stuff (including the Axies they breed, Lands, and other several accessories like barrels or flowers or ) through the game’s NFT marketplace while also collecting tokens generated by the game. The game makes use of two unique coins. Which are Axie Infinity Shards (AXS) and Smooth Love Potion (SLP).

Both tokens are used in the interaction and process in-game such as land acquiring, upgrading and most importantly breeding. Axies and eggs in themselves can also be sold to other people with Ethereum as its trade of currency. Players can view the current value of AXS and SLP on CoinGecko.

1. Axies

They are fantastical monsters that can be fought, collected, and raised by players. Each Axie has unique characteristics that influence its function in battle. Each Axies has 4 notable stats to be looked into. These include Health, Morale, Skill, and Speed. These stats along with other aspects are important to know whether an Axie can be deployed to fight into the arena competitively.

• Morale: Morale raises the likelihood of a critical strike. It also increases the likelihood of entering the last stand and adds extra last stand ticks.
• Speed: Turn order is determined by speed. Axies with greater speed attack first. Speed also reduces an Axie’s chances of getting hit by a critical attack.
• Skill: When an Axie plays numerous cards at once, Skill increases the damage (combo).
• Health: The maximum amount of damage your Axie can withstand before being knocked out.

2. Classes

Similar to one of the most popular game series called Pokemon, Axie Infinity also has a class traits system that implements advantages against one class over another. There are currently 9 axie types that have been introduced in the game. The following are:

• Aquatic                                            
• Beast
• Bird
• Bug
• Dawn
• Dusk
• Mech
• Plant
• Reptile

Within these classes are three special classes that can only be bred using special combinations of axies. Mech results as an offspring of a purebred Beast Axie and a purebred Bug Axie. Dawn results as an offspring of a purebred Plant Axie and a purebred Bird Axie. Finally, Dusk Axies are born of purebred Reptile Axie and purebred Aquatic Axie parents.

3. Body Parts

Axies have six body parts: eyes, ears, a horn, a mouth, a back, and a tail. The body parts that are responsible for the Axie’s skill cards are its Mouth, Tail, Horn, and Back. Each body part also contributes different additional stats depending on which class the part belongs to. The additional attributes being:

• Aqua: 3 Speed + 1 HP
• Beast: 3 Morale+1 Speed
• Bird: 3 Speed + 1 Morale
• Bug: 3 Morale + 1 HP
• Plant: 3 HP + 1 Morale
• Reptile: 3 HP + 1 Speed

Best Teams in Axie Infinity

PVP, or Player versus Player mode, is a more complicated game than Adventure. In this mode, you will be pitted against another team of Axies lead by another player much like you. This implies that when you’re in Adventure mode, they’ll face you strategically rather than robotically or automatically. These are some of the most common and well-balanced team configurations to look out for in Axie Infinity:

• Aqua, Aqua, Plant
• Beast, Bird, Plant
• Beast, Aqua, Plant

With this lineup and decent body parts for axies, then it would not be hard to play competitively in the player versus player scene in Axie Infinity.
