## Analysis

Great Cleave is a built-in effect from the base game. https://dota2.gamepedia.com/Sven#Great\_Cleave

God's Strength ability has 2 part. The self buff is a built-in effect from the base game. https://dota2.gamepedia.com/Sven#God.27s\_Strength

The allies buff is custom code, which provides the bonus damage by `MODIFIER_PROPERTY_BASEDAMAGEOUTGOING_PERCENTAGE`. This bonus is calculated base on base attack damage.

The modifier (allies buff) that provide this property do not stack with itself. When there are multiple sources of it, the one with the highest level applies its effect.

## Trivia

Sven can get a large amount of mana each attack thanks to his cleave ability, which causes multiple damage instance across multiple targets.

The demon buff, if applicable, only applies its damage on the main target.

Warlocks

**Warlock** is a class in *Dota Auto Chess*.

## Description

"Warlocks are cursed sorcerers who use demonic power to drain the life force from their enemies, restoring themselves to continue their cursed battle."

## Effects

Warlocks class combo

Siphon Soul
* Active when you have at least (N) different warlock pieces on board.
* (2) Warlocks: All allies have +10% lifesteal and spell lifesteal.
* (4) Warlocks: All allies have +25% lifesteal and spell lifesteal.
* (6) Warlocks: All warlocks get additional HP on enemies chess pieces death.

## List of Warlocks

* Witch Doctor
* Venomancer
* Shadow Fiend
* Necrophos
* Alchemist
* Enigma
* Death Prophet
* Warlock(hero)

## Mechanic

This lifesteal is custom-made. This lifesteal trigger when a unit take damage and healing are given to the damage source. Heal amount is calculated base on damage taken amount after all damage manipulations and damage block.

## Trivia

* This bonus can be considered as normal lifesteal (trigger on attack damage) + spell lifesteal (trigger on non-attack damage), with a difference: this lifesteal is calculated base on damage amount after all damage manipulations and damage block, while normal built-in lifesteal does not consider the custom-made damage block.
* Also, technically this lifesteal does not consist of 2 different types of lifesteal. It simply triggers on all kind of damage dealt, thus ignore some exception from the base game where spell damage from certain ability is specified to ignore spell lifesteal; for example Luna's Moon Glaives, which will not trigger spell lifesteal but will trigger this custom-made lifesteal.
* This bonus stack additively.
	+ **3 Warlocks** have **15% lifesteal**.
	+ **6 Warlocks** have **40% lifesteal**.
* The warlock class has two out of seven legendary chess pieces.

* It is hard to get their final class bonus, it requires only 6 of the available 7 warlocks in the game but two of them are legendary ($5).

## Species

There are 8 warlocks in the game, from the following species:

* 1 Troll
* 1 Beast
* 1 Demon
* 2 Undead
* 1 Goblin
* 1 Elemental
* 1 Orc

## General strategy

Warlocks are almost always picked for the Warlock(3) bonus and not for the Warlock(6) bonus.

## Combination strategy

Warlocks bonuses increase the lifesteal dealt by any unit, not just warlocks. Therefore, units with lots of physical damage can be very effective when paired together with warlocks. For example:

* Drow Ranger
* Phantom Assassin
* Terrorblade
* Templar Assassin
* Troll Warlord

The following bonuses effectively increase the lifesteal of their respective class or specie.

* Assassin
* Demon
* Hunter

The following bonuses effectively increase the lifesteal of all your units.

* Beast
* Troll
* Undead

## Trivia

Demon bonus only applies if either of following conditions is true:

* You have only 1 kind of demon and the enemy does not have any demon hunter.
* You have any number of demons and 2 different demon hunters.

In other words,

* (1) Demon Hunter prevents the enemy demon buff, if they do not have 2 different demon hunters.

* (2) Demon Hunters allows the demon buff to be applied on any number of demons you own, regardless rather the enemy has demon hunters or not.

## Species

There are 2 demon hunters in the game, from the following species:

* 1 Elf
* 1 Demon

## General strategy

In most games, only one demons hunter is bought to deny the enemy team Demon's his Fel Power.

Eventually, two demon hunters are used together to allow a player to have more than one Demon without them losing their Fel Power. Effectively, that means being able to have up to 5 different units with high attack damage (**50% attack damage** output increase as **pure damage**).

## Strategy

Click here to add a strategy!
*Outdate*
Dragon is very hard to build but strong nonetheless thanks to 100 starting mana. They start to shine when at 2 stars or more. The most impactful effect is for Viper and Dragon Knight. A 2 stars Viper ultimate is a guarantee kill in most stage of the game over 5 seconds with the additional effect of crippling the target attack speed unless the target has enough magic resistance. With 100 mana at the beginning of battles, it is almost guaranteed to cast 2 which results in 2 kills. Dragon Knight is generally useless without dragon form and the Dragon species bonus solves that problem. The poison, slow and AOE damage is very valuable in the later game and can be a game changer. Also with the Human species bonus, he is capable of disarming multiple targets at once. Finally Puck, its spell deals damage on the straight line. With proper positioning, it can hit most of the enemy at the beginning of the fight for free damage.

Dragon species can be combined with Elf (Puck), Human and Knight (Dragon Knight). Assassin is available but not recommended.
Razor

**Razor,**(not to be messed with razor in h-series) is a fighter class ship in mcst. It’s stats are average and has mediocre knockback comapred to other fighters,but it is quite good at mining.It is recommended to uprgade as soon as possible,due to it’s alrge size and easiness to be shot to death,being slow and light.It is best used as extra firepower or with skill,as it’s energy regen,even if lower than the Carrier is better than most heavy-class ships,and can be ~~well~~ utilized with underestimation(torpedoes are recommended).

Scout-Enforcer

The **scout enforcer** is a tier 6 support ship in mcst.It fires 3 moderate frontal pulses about once per second,with rapid side auxiliary lasers that spread.It would seem like it’s burst damage is less that some tier 5s at first,but the regen is still decent.It’s speed and maxed shield stats are the main advantages,and could stand on it’s own with such heavy mass.Still,being quite wide,it falls behind some heavy ships that has better options for attack.Though,it still can fight ships of most classes.Its also good for mining,though not extremely important unless you want to help your teammates.Chances are slim that you can survive with speedsters until the last moment unless ram damage is well optimized or suspicion is prevented.

Speed

**Speed** refers to the rate at which an entity, such as a ship, or a laser moves across space. The max speed (turn velocity) is different for each ship. The time it takes to reach this max speed or acceleration is determined by the agility of the ship. Lasers move at constant speed after the initial velocity is set.

## Ship Speed

A ship's speed is defined by the fastest it can go while going forward(left mouse button/forward arrow key). The ship has a maximum speed while doing this. As you may notice while using recoil(see U-Sniper and Shadow X-3) or getting knocked around by a Barracuda, you can exceed this maximum speed. The Friction setting will adjust how quickly you are brought back to still or moving at your maximum speed. Setting the friction at 0 in a Custom Game makes gimmicks like hyper speed possible.

Ship speed can be Upgraded with the red colored speed upgrade (marked with number 7).

The fastest ship in the game is the Shadow X-1 while the slowest is the Aries.

In Survival Mode and Team Mode ship speeds are given a 1.2 multiplier.

## Laser Speed

A laser's speed affects how fast the laser moves if the ship is stationary. A unit vector in the direction of the ship is multiplied by the speed to create a direction velocity vector. The ship's velocity is added to this velocity, which then becomes the laser's initial velocity.

Faster laser speed results in more knockback when it hits a player.

Without being rammed or using recoil, the maximum possible actual laser speed is the sum of the ship speed and the laser speed. For example, if a maxed Fly is moving at max speed (145) forward and shoots its 180 speed laser, the total laser speed is 145+180 = 325. As another example, if an Odyssey was rammed and is moving backward at 100 speed, when it shoots, the laser will be stationary. If the Odyssey was rammed even harder and is moving backwards even faster, the laser will actually move backward.

Laser speed can be upgraded with the orange speed upgrade (marked with number 6).

* 2 Orc
* 1 Beast
* 1 Element
* 1 Naga
* 1 Human
* 2 Demon
* 1 Troll
* 1 God

Druid

**Druid** is a class in *Dota Auto Chess*.

## Description

"Shapeshifters and healers that have harnessed the ancient powers of nature, sharing exceptionally profound knowledge among each other."

Due to the specialties of the class, Druids will not benefit from [Auto Combine on Bench].

## Effects

Druid class combo

Synergy
* Active when there are at least (N) different druid chess pieces on the chessboard.
* (2) Druid: two Druid★ can upgrade to a Druid★★.
* (4) Druid: two Druid★★ can upgrade to a Druid★★★.

## List of Druids

* Enchantress
* Treant Protector
* Furion
* Lone Druid
* Leshrac

## Trivia

Druid is a class that can be upgraded with less units. As result, they are cheaper and it is likely that you gonna be able to level them up sooner than other units, even though the chess pool has less druids than other units.

The drawback is that druids don't have any class bonus that helps them inside combat and most druids also have lower health than most units.

It is easy to get their final class bonus since you only need 4 druids.

It is possible to take advantage of this class to profit, since it takes 2 Enchantresses level 1 that cost 1 gold each to make an Enchantress level 2 that is worth 3 gold, many players buy Enchantresses to upgrade them and sell them right after.

Because Lone Druid is a particularly powerful unit, many players hold druids in the bench to be able to get a level 3 Lone Druid easily then sell the other druids after.

## Species

There are 4 druids in the game, from the following species:

* 2 Beast
* 2 Elf

## General strategy

Druids are usually bought early to take advantage of their earlier upgrades and later combined with other units to get more meaningful class and species bonuses. Elf and Beast are common upgrades since druids already include 2 of each.

 Mod code

This is the 3rd mod added to Modding space, it consists of 2 rounds per game (qualifying which is where you race for the fastest lap which will help when you start, and the actual race which consists of 4 laps and you have to be the fastest to win) there are secondaries that spawn in randomly in the racing path (no pods or Torpedoes) and energy capsules (the ships have zero energy regeneration). There are 5 different tracks in this mod which 3 are designed by the developers. The other 2 designed by Goldman. The ships slightly vary by mass, ship speed, agility, acceleration, and dash speed. This was the last mod featured before modding space was officially released. It was replaced by Starblast racing championship in modding space on June 19th 2020.

All of these ships still exist in game because they are in use in Starblast racing championship.

Matchmaking Rating

Dota Auto Chess employs its own system to assess **Matchmaking Rating (MMR)** to each player.

## MMR for rank mark

Players ranks go from lower rank to higher rank: Pawn, Knight, Bishop, Rook, King, Queen.

At Pawn, Knight, Bishop, Rook, it is further split into 9 marks, e.g. Pawn-1 to Pawn-9. At Queen rank, player receive another number next to their rank indicating their position compared (based on MMR) to all other players in the game.

The difference between 2 consecutive rank marks is 80 MMR, with Pawn-2 start at 500 MMR.

## MMR update after each game

**Disclamer:** The following information obtained through observation. The exact calculation is not available yet.

When a game finishes, MMR change for each player is calculated as

```
   mmr_change = (avg_mmr - mmr) * .15 + placement_const

```

where

* `avg_mmr` is average mmr of all players in this game

* `mmr` is mmr of the current player

* `placement_const` is based on placement of current player on game result, as following

There are exception to this calculation: The first place never lose rating points if the calculated change is lower than 0. Likewise the last place never gain any rating points.

Toscain

*This ship was replaced with Howler after January 28th, 2020. Information about this ship will be archived. This ship is however still playable in Rumble. This ship was also playble in the April 2020 AOW and is playable during the Retro Starblast Event in July of 2023 until August 23rd of 2023*

 Designer

**Toscain** was a Tier 5 ship in Starblast.io. It is a unique ship compared to other ships, firing four frontal lasers that diverge with varying angles, and one pulse that has slight knockback to the victim. It is effective at close-range and generally mines well, but is not very good at fighting other players.

It was replaced by the Howler on 1/28/2020 likely due to it not being very good and rarely used in game.

The Toscain when un-upgraded is a very poor ship, and even when fully upgraded, it is mediocre at best. While the Toscain has the second-best shields in its tier, it is slow, hard to maneuver and has weak firepower. It is generally best to upgrade quickly to the next tier, preferably the Rock-Tower, after upgrading a few stats as necessary. Avoid all other enemy vessels, but when confronted, do not attempt to flee. Ram and fire shots at point-blank ranges to ensure the enemy ship faces your full firepower. Despite this, chances are that you'll lose against most ships. Mine asteroids quickly by ramming and firing simultaneously. It is never worth upgrading the Ship Speed, upgrade your Shield Capacity and Regeneration first.

This ship is only recommended if you wish to get to the Rock-Tower quickly. If you wish to get to the Barracuda, use the Bat-Defender.

The Toscain used to work well with heavy mines, using heavy mines at point-blank range to help combat enemy vessels. Using this strategy, you were able to defeat almost any ship in the game, even tier 7 ships like the Bastion. This is not effective anymore because of a recent update that puts an arming delay on the mines.

The Toscain received a buff to its shields, energy, and damage on April 31st, 2017.

It is the second ship ever to get replaced.

This ship did make a comeback in the April 2020 ACW/AOW on PMF.

This ships is also available in the Rumble mod that was added to Modding space as of 9/4/2020.
Rampage

The **Rampage** is the second leftmost heavy ship in Multi-Class Ship Tree.It seems weak and can be lacking in firepower and **shield regeneration**,but the extremely long energy capacity can handle long bursts that can disorient your opponents(especially fragile ones if aimed correctly),awaiting a collision.The speedy energy refill also proves useful,removing partially the flaw of waiting for the energy cap to refill.It is best used as support and is very weak unupgraded.It’s not advised to use it against speedsters before upgrading.
