Choose from 6 pre-built decks. Each built around a playstyle — aggro rush, control, elemental synergy, or balanced power.
Each turn, spend Bitszen energy to deploy heroes across 3 battleground nodes. Each node has unique modifiers that change power calculations.
After 6 turns, the player who controls the most nodes wins. Element affinity, SYNC combos, and card abilities can swing any battle.
BTC1 is under siege. The Nexarchs — ancient invaders obsessed with absolute order — came for the planet's Bitszen, the energy that sustains every civilization on the world. They assimilate entire species into the Hivemantle, a nightmare collective of the conquered.
Aiko stood alone. A farmer in seclusion, she held the first invasion back by herself. Then across BTC1, Bitszen began awakening ordinary citizens — each linked to a different blockchain, wielding abilities as vast as the networks they embody. Are these powers a gift… or a consequence of the invasion?
Together they formed BCSH Corp. — the coalition of the awakened. Every card in Hero Squad Showdown is one of these defenders. Every battle is a moment in the war for BTC1.
Maps rotate weekly. Each map is a real location from the BCSH universe — tied to a hero's origin story.
When that hero plays on their home map, they unlock a unique passive no other card can use.
Same cards. Different battlefield. A different game every week.
Fire +2, Water -2. The weakest card in each zone takes damage every turn. Aiko is immune — she survived the heat alone. On her map, she's unstoppable.
All cards cost -1. No.5 deploys free and gains a unique passive: she heals 1 HP each turn. She was born here — the energy flows through her faster than anyone.
All cards cost +1 energy. Sentinel costs 0. His Golden Bulwark silences every enemy on the board. When everything freezes, Plan B is the only play.
Storm Plateau, Twilight City, Nexarch Hive, Chain Bridge — each tied to a hero's story. The community votes on which maps ship next. Your vote shapes the game.
Own the NFT? Your hero deploys with exclusive visual effects on their home map. Fire ring for Aiko, crystal glow for No.5, electricity halo for Ethan. Gold border all match.
Weekly map rotations tell an ongoing campaign. Your hero's map week is YOUR week. The most-played hero each season earns a permanent lore title.
