Core Game Concept
In the Battle Mile Race, two teams of five compete, with strategic substitutes available. Real-time tracking of split times every 200 meters (100m indoor) allows teams to adjust their tactics, enhancing performance through pace adjustments and Joker substitutions. Teams accumulate points through a tournament format, advancing to playoffs and ultimately competing for top league rankings.
Tournaments
Ace Battle Mile tournaments are key presentation competitions that provide teams the opportunity to demonstrate their qualification. By maintaining an active rating, teams showcase their commitment and competitive level within the Ace Battle rating system. Successful participation and ranking updates in these tournaments serve as stepping stones, potentially qualifying teams for entry into the prestigious Ace Battle League.
