Chog Royale: Every Chog changes the arena.

Chog Royale is a fast 1v1 card battler where a verified Chog NFT sets the match’s first Chaos Pulse. Build your deck, read the arena and break the Core.

How the Chog matters

Identity changes the conditions. Skill decides the outcome.

Build an eight-card deck, defend your Core and react to a Chaos Pulse derived from a verified Chog NFT. Play through the free route, read the arena and outsmart your opponent.

  1. 01Reveal

    The NFT has a job

    A verified Chog identity changes the conditions of play.

    This Chog is part of the match.

  2. 02Understand and adapt

    Chaos is fair

    Surprise is visible, finite and counterable.

    The arena changes. The rule is visible.

  3. 03Clash

    Skill stays sovereign

    Ownership adds identity and variety, not extra combat power.

    Your Chog gives you a story. Your decisions win the match.

  4. 04Remember

    Every match leaves a trace

    The server replays every match to check the result.

    See what changed. See why it changed.

The cards

Build your first deck.

The current build has 12 troops, 4 buildings and 4 spells. Pick seven, add a commander and spend energy to deploy them.

6 of the 20 cards in the current build. Costs and traits can change with balancing.

Commanders

The NFT is part of the match.

Give your Chog a visible job in the match rather than leaving it as a static collectible.

  • Your commander

    A verified Chog’s traits decide its class. Hold one and it can lead your deck.

    In testing NFT commanders are built and waiting on holder testing.

  • The Arena Patron

    Each match, the server picks a separate Chog from the Genesis collection. Its metadata sets the Chaos Pulse, and neither player chooses it.

  • The free route

    Play free first. Connect a Chog when you are ready. Free commanders fight with the same class stats as NFT ones.

Tier is prestige only. It never changes combat stats.

How the arena works

Read the Pulse. Break the Core.

Here is what actually runs a match, from the first card to the last result. Every rule below is decided on the server, not in your browser.

    The server owns the arena

    The match runs on the server, not in your browser. You send the moves you want to make, and the server decides what happens and who breaks the Core first.

    Browser manipulation cannot decide the match.

    Seven cards and a commander

    A deck is seven ordinary cards and one commander. Energy starts at five and refills on a timer, faster as the match goes on, so every card you hold is a timing decision.

    Energy makes every card a decision.

    A Chog sets the rule

    Before the match the server picks a Chog from the Genesis collection and locks it as the Arena Patron. Neither seat picks it, and both play under the same one.

    Players know what rule is coming.

    The rule is visible before it acts

    The Patron's traits pick the first Chaos Pulse, and two more follow as the match runs. Each one warns you first, hits both sides the same way, and expires on its own.

    Decks and timing decisions matter.

    Free commanders fight the same

    Play without owning a Chog. A free commander and an NFT commander of the same class fight with the exact same numbers, so ownership never buys extra power.

    Welcome instead of exclusion.

    Every match is replayed

    Every finished match is replayed by the server, whether it ended on the Core, on crowns or in overtime. The replay has to match the live match, or the result is refused.

    Trust in the result.

In the current buildThe battle, the Arena Patron and the free-commander route are all in the current build and playable. Playing needs a dev login, so the match is not open to the public yet, and saved match history is off until settlement is switched on.
