Guides for new duelists

Training complete, clearer results

  • Your three training duels now end on a TRAINING COMPLETE screen with all three times, your record and a button into your first real duel.
  • The margin under the times reads plainly, such as 592ms FASTER or 12ms SLOWER.
  • The Global leaderboard shows a compact YOUR PLACE row, or NOT RANKED YET before your first ranked time.
  • Opening Legends sends any wins that were still waiting to sync.
  • Fixed achievements announcing themselves again every time the game opened.
  • Fixed one tap occasionally saving the same duel twice.
  • On Android, the system back gesture on a result now leaves the same way the on-screen button does.

No more waiting out a duel

  • If the strike dot is up for 2 seconds with no tap, the duel is a loss marked NO DRAW. Leaving the game while the dot is showing counts the same way.
  • Your full duel history count now shows on Profile.
  • Scrolling screens no longer slide under the phone's status bar.
  • Stricter display name filtering, checked on the server as well as in the game.
  • A new Send Feedback option.

A fresh leaderboard

  • The leaderboard was reset for the new app builds, so every time on it now was set under the current rules.
  • Your recovery code is now kept in your phone's secure storage on iPhone and Android.
  • In a browser window too small to stay fair, the game shows WINDOW TOO SMALL instead of letting you duel.
  • The strike dot always fits the window, even if you resize it during the standoff.
  • Fake profiles can be hidden from the leaderboard and from matchmaking.

Fairer duels and a smoother game

  • One rule decides every duel. A tie goes to you, and a hit under 100ms is a TOO FAST foul.
  • New win lines under VICTORY, so results don't repeat the same words.
  • Portraits for the Ghost Masters and the training opponents.
  • Undo after sending a friend challenge.
  • Larger touch targets, better contrast, full keyboard focus on the web, and a lobby that fits small phones.
  • A desktop layout that keeps the game in a comfortable column.
  • Delete My Data in Profile removes your player record, leaderboard entry and sent challenges, then starts the game fresh.
  • A recovery code on Profile lets you move your profile to a new device.
  • Fixed best and average times not always saving after a run of quick duels.
  • Fixed the menu music on return visits. It now starts on your first tap.

Challenge links everywhere

  • Every shared result carries a challenge link, so whoever opens it can duel your time right away.
  • On iPhone, challenge links open straight in the app.
