Down Value

**Down Value** is a hidden value dealt by weapons in *Ninjala*. If a player reaches a high enough down value, they will be launched and enter a knockdown state.

## Information

Down Value is similar to Gum Damage, as it is a hidden value measured from 0% to 100%. Every attack in the game deals a certain amount of Down Value to the opponent. When a player's Down Value reaches 100%, they will be launched away and sent into a knockdown state. *Knockdown* is a recovery state in which the player is temporarily invulnerable to damage, and can be cancelled out of early by jumping or dashing. After knockdown the Down Value will be reset to 0%.

There are actions that can reset the value such as a Gum Bind, a successful Break Attack and certain weapon attacks. Some weapon attacks even add 0% which means they can be chained infinitely until the opponent is defeated.

## Tips

* Different attacks from different weapons all have varying amounts of down value. However, a constant across them is the Break Attack, which deals a very high down value of approximately 70%, meaning that it can be used to send opponents away if the player does not wish to confront them.

Dragon Lord

**Dragon Lord** is a Gum Ninjutsu projectile in *Ninjala*. It involves the user unleashing a dragon their gum color, similarly to the Fujiyama Rocket. The dragon will home in on opponents and explodes when coming in contact with opponents, Drones, walls or after a period of time. Not only does it deal damage but also Gum Damage. Combining Dragon Lord with a Gum Shoot can lead into a great Gum Bind combo. If the targetted Drone or opponent is destroyed or knocked out the dragon automatically changes the target to a nearby one. Like all other Gum Ninjutsus, the Dragon Lord will Ippon if it causes an opponent's health to reach 0.

The activation takes a short period of time. So it cannot be used as a fast counter attack. Also, if the target opponent is too close, dragon circles around a few times before hitting. If the dragon hits an opponent during a invulnerable state, the dragon just flies through and doesn't re-target them. So caution is recommended.

## Weapons

The following is a list of weapons that come equipped with Dragon Lord:

* Corn Bat
* Drum Beat
* Camu Camu Plate

## Patch History

### Version 1.2

### Version 11.1

* ▲ Damage has been increased.
* ▲ Gum damage has been increased.

## Tips

### Versus Dragon Lord

There isn't really much you can do against the Dragon Lord once it has locked onto you. It's speed and homing ability were buffed during Season 8, so the best you can do is:

* Get on your board weapon and ride,
* Use an attacking Gum Ninjutsu to give yourself invincibility,
* Spam the Gum Dash with a full S-Energy Bar, or
* Hope you can take the hit.

Gum Ghost

Gum Ghost is a Gum Shoot that was introduced in Season 2. Its main gimmick is that in can go through walls and drains S-Energy.

When shooting a gum ghost, the gum turns into a ninja ghost that makes the famous *Ninjala* ninja hand sign. Once its in the range of an opponent, it changes its pose to a grabbing one.

Medium sized Gum Ghost.
Once shot, it homes in on the targeted or nearest opponent. It can chase opponents even through walls but not through drones. If an opponent is hit, it's S-Energy is drained and gum damage is dealt. If it got blocked it still drains S-Energy. In contrast to most of the other Gum Shoots it does not deal any damage. So it cannot accidentally knock out an opponent. Reminder: an IPPON cannot be scored through the damage of a Gum Shoot, even if the opponent is in Gum Bind state. The amount of S-Energy drained, gum damage dealt and speed depend on the size of the gum. A large Gum Ghost flies very slow while a small sized Ghost travels fast. If the opponent manages to guard the shot, no gum damage will be dealt. HOWEVER, S-Energy is still deducted with an amount of 2 to 6 units. A Gum Ghost homes for a few seconds before disappearing (if the intended target was not hit). How much distance it can travel depends on the size since it's speed is bound to it.

## Priority

   Gum Ghost is at the same time the strongest and weakest Gum Shoot. At any size it can go through any projectile. The drawback however is that it cannot wipe any of them out. So it cannot be used defensively.

### Versus other Projectile Attacks

*The projectile attack priority list can be found here.*

Gum Ghost can go through any Projectile Attack, including the exceptional Special Attacks Thunder Cannon, Cannon Bomber and Fiery Raid. It can not however stop or wipe any of them including for example Sound Bullets of Hammer Type B weapons, which have the lowest priority.

*"Defeat your opponent in a 1-on-1 fight!"*

**Man to Man Brawl!** is a Featured Battle introduced in Season 10. This mode is a 1-on-1 fight that takes place in Underground Oedo. It revolves around the battle mechanic of *Ninjala* as there are no Drones to get points from. Fighting is the only way to win.

* *Getting 3 points counts as a win!*

* Get points by defeating your opponent!

* A K.O. is 1 point, while an IPPON grants 2 points!

* If there's no winner when the time limit is reached, then the one with the most points wins!

## Details

The stage is surrounded by walls reaching to the ceiling. When starting the Fight each player are granted with the max amount of S-Energy, meaning 10 units, and a large weapon. The mode is set at half the time normally applicable, 120 seconds.
Consecutive wins are counted.
Alter Special

Alternate Specials, or **Alter Specials** are, as the name suggests, alternative Special that can be equipped to a weapon. Therefore the initial Special has to be unequipped as a weapon can only have one at a time. Alter Specials aren't available from start, they have to be unlocked through the Ninja Gum Lab. Every weapon has one Alter Special, that they share within the same class type. Most of the Alter Specials have completely different properties compared to the inital Special, thus they offer a way to change the play style of a weapon. The cooldown works as in all other initial Specials but can vary in the time.

## Equip Alter Specials

Once unlocked, Alter Specials can be equipped through the weapon customization in the weapon equipment menu.
Gum Shot

The **Gum Shot** is a Gum Shoot that doesn't take a specific form. When fired, tiny bubbles of gum are immediately released, spreading out like bullets from a shotgun, and do Gum Damage.

Opponent is using a large sized Gum Shot.Gum Shot is a short ranged and fast Gum Shoot. The closer the target is the more Gum Damage it deals. It has the capability of piercing through opponents and Drones. For walls it depends on the distance.

Damage, Gum Damage and range change based on the size of the Gum Shoot. The following assumes that no Gum Damage increasing Shinobi Card or alike is equipped:

* For a small sized Gum Shot (1-3 S-Energy units) it is not possible to Gum Bind an opponent with one shot. Two shots are required and the user must be close to the opponent.
* As for the medium and large sized Gum Shot an opponent can be Gum Bind with a single close standing Shot.

## Priority

   Gum Shot has a high priority. It is ranked below Gum Laser and above Gum Boomerang. Its size doesn't change that. So a small Gum Shot is equally priortized as a large Gum Shot. A small Shot can even counter large Gum Boomerangs and Gum Launcher. But at the same time a large Gum Shot can not stand a chance against a small deployed Gum Net or a single Laser.

### Versus other Projectile Attacks

*The projectile attack priority list can be found here.*

The priority of Gum Shot doesn't vary over size so it's very reliable. It's high priority makes it capable to counter all projectile Standard Attacks as well as Break Attacks and the Special Overpowering Wave. When it comes to Razor Edge Gum Shot draws the short straw. So it's slightly weaker than Gum Laser when it comes to the strength against Projectile Attacks. The exceptional projectile Special Attacks Thunder Cannon, Cannon Bomber and Fiery Raid all trades with Gum Shot, just like most of the other Gum Shoots.

## Weapons

* Extreme Motor
* Slash Kicks X

## Patch History

### Version 8.1

* ▼ [Small and medium size] Cooldown time has been extended.

### Version 11.1

* ▼ [Medium size] Shortened the time of Gum Bind.
S-Burst

**Shinobi Burst** (more commonly known as **S-Burst**) is a key mechanic in Ninjala. When players are attacked by an enemy, their ninja will flinch and be unable to move or jump for a brief period of time. During this moment, a button cue for  will flash on the screen, prompting players to enter an **S-Burst**.

An S-Burst is when a player attempts to block attacks from a regular gum weapon, their ninja holding their weapon in a guarding stance. Purple rings will surround the player, signaling to others that they've entered an S-Burst. If an opponent attempts to attack a player in an S-Burst with regular attacks, they both will enter a Parry.

However, Break Attacks are attacks designed specifically for countering S-Bursts and Gum Guards. Via pressing the  button on the controller, players can perform this kind of attack. Executing it when an opponent in an S-Burst, their gum weapon will shatter and split into its basic form of gum, wrapping itself around the owner in a sticky gum bind. With no option of defense, players can unleash heavy damage onto their opponents, ultimately making their health reach 0 and earning an Ippon. Thus, it is not recommended to use S-Burst as a panic button.

*"Score lots of points!"*

S-Blast Battle Test Play is a featured battle mode in Ninjala that proposed an alternative to the Parry mechanic.

## About

The mode operates very similarly to the regular Battle Royale mode, except with a noticeable difference.

Ninjala Pass

The **Ninjala Pass** (sometimes called the **Ninjala Season Pass**) is a purchasable package for players to earn more rewards as they play the game over the course of a Season, as well as gain additional benefits such as infinite Ninja-Gum and shop discounts. For free, players can play through a standard pass and earn some collectables and items. However, players can purchase the Ninjala Pass and gain access to more exclusive and desirable items and benefits.

## About

Each season has a number of rewards that can be earned by playing the game and progressing through tiers. These are included but not limited to:  Jala, Ninja Medals, Gumball Machine Coins, Research Points, Bait Gum, Emotes, Stickers, Hairstyles, Clothing, BGM, and more. Most rewards are locked behind the Ninjala Pass, requiring its purchase to earn them. Additionally, players with any variation of the Ninjala Pass can gain exclusive benefits as well (listed below).

Players earn Tier Points as they progress through the game, with the amount earned after a match varying depending on the player's performance. There are also missions with a set amount of points that are assigned to the player, allowing them to advance through tiers faster than normal. Every day, there are five new missions with much higher point values, allowing for much faster progress. A Ninjala Pass Matsuri is an in-game festival that strengthens these missions for a short period of time, making them give three times as many points than usual.

Tiers can be skipped for 100  Jala each.

## Benefits

The Ninjala Pass unlocks and provides several exclusive rewards and benefits for those who purchase it:

* **Additional Rewards:** The main feature of the Ninjala Pass; players will earn more rewards as they progress through tiers compared to players with a standard pass. Tier rewards for each season can be found on their respective season's page.
* **Infinite Weapon Skins:** With the Ninjala Pass, players can use their obtained weapon skins infinitely without consuming them, so long as they have at least one in their possession.
* **Shinobi Shop Discounts:** Players with any form of the Ninjala Pass get a 20% discount on most items in the Shinobi Shop. Certain items, such as collab items, are exempt from this.

## Pass Types and Pricing

* **Standard Pass:** The default pass that all players start with. Includes limited tier rewards. There are no special additions or benefits included.
* **Ninjala Pass:** The full season pass. Unlocks all tier rewards and additional benefits.
* **Ninjala Pass Mini:** A budget version of the Ninjala Pass, costing much less than the regular.

Billy

**Billy** is a student at the WNA Academy.

## Story

Ninja-Gum

Ninja Gum is a specially made gum created in a lab that awakens the Power of Shinobi within ninja descendants. The prototype gum is one color with large, darker dots scattered around it. The final ninja gum always looks similar to the weapon it can create when chewed, including color variations of the weapon.

The gum fuses with DNA once chewed, allowing the consumer to create large, durable gum bubbles that are big enough to float the user down from tall heights. The gum can also become a variety of weapons, depending on the type the consumer selects. With the gum comes crazy special attacks, and Gum Ninjutsu attacks that can wipe out opponents easily.

However, a major side effect of the ninja gum is that any consumer who is an adult will be turned into a kid, presumably around the preteen ages of 10-13.

Fortunately people who are already children do not suffer any side effects, due to being immune.

So far, the gum has been featured in the Ninjala animated series on YouTube in Episode 0: "Ninja Gum is Born!" and Episode 3: A Beautiful Intruder.
Gum Morphing

**Gum morphing** (often shortened to simply **Morphing**) is a mechanic in *Ninjala* that enables players to blend into surroundings by disguising themselves as an inanimate object for a time.

## Usage

The player can turn into the closest object surrounding themselves by pressing . Objects they can turn into can range from boxes, to flags, to various other items. Players can also morph into their equipped Utsusemi via pressing . Players cannot stay morphed forever however; while morphed, a green meter appear showing the player how long they can remain morphed for. The player can be morphed for up to around 15 seconds at a time, and the meter gradually recharges while not morphed.

This mechanic allows players to hide from enemies, given they morph out of sight and do not move. When the player is morphed, other player's Ninja Sense will not detect them and they cannot by targeted by the camera. The player will automatically exit their morphed form if they attack or use any gum ability, but they can still move, jump, and dash while remaining morphed. Gum morphing also serves as a way for the player to rapidly regain their life and S-Energy at an accelerated rate. This effect is further amplified if the Master of Change Shinobi Card is equipped and/or the Assist Codes are enhanced.
Katana

**Katanas** are a weapon classification in *Ninjala*. Katanas are jack-of-all-trades weapons, being easy and simple to use, with balanced stats in damage and mobility. Because of this, the Katana class is a great weapon class for beginners. Katanas use a variety of slashing and stabbing attack, depending on the subclass, and are capable of swift attacks.

## List of Katanas by subclass

### Type A

The first subclass of katanas function similarly to real swords. They feature slashing-based attacks and have balanced stats all around. Katana Type A features the **Charging Slash** Special. Charging Slash involves a swift dashing attack that covers a lot of ground quickly. If an opponent is within range, it will lock on them and charge at them. Upon hitting, this special will have a split second of invincibility. Charging Slash can also be comboed out of, as it deals no knockback upon landing.

Katana Type A's ability is **Chakra**, which resets Special cooldown when an opponent is defeated. Its big weapon ability, **Kamikaze**, allows the user to run faster for a short time after defeating their opponent with a Special move.

**IPPON Katana**

**Scroll Blade**

**Shinobuzz Paper Fan**

### Type B

The second subclass of katanas function similarly to drills. Their movesets incorporate mainly high-speed thrusting attacks and jabs. This subclass features the **Here and There** Special, which has the user momentarily dig underground and move around, before emerging with a surprise attack. While active, the player is invulnerable to most attacks, and the attack can be triggered with either  or .

Katana Type B's ability is **Miracle Charge**, which heals some Life to the user when Gum Ninjutsu is activated. Its big weapon ability is **Stealth Attack**, which resets special cooldown upon successfully hitting an opponent with a Special move.

**Drill Beast**

**Corn Bat**

**Bird Drill**

### Type C

The third subclass of katanas were introduced in Season 4. They have whip-like functions and feature a wide attack capable of pulling in opponents. They are slightly slower but have a notably longer range than other katana subclasses. They feature the **Froggy Block** Special, which summons a box-shaped, frog-like wall either in front of the player, or near an opponent if they are within range. While capable of blocking the path of opponents, it can also damage foes caught in the box's radius when it appears.

Katana Type C's ability is **Bumpy Box**, which increases the attack power of Special moves every time an opponent is defeated. Its big weapon ability is **Unstoppable**, which restores life when a Special move is used.

**Scrap Saber**

**Chewing V**

## Trivia

* The Katana class was the first weapon class revealed, with the base weapon, the IPPON Katana, being the only weapon available during the E3 2018 Demo.
* The Katana class was also the only class that had more than one subclass usable during the Exclusive Ninja Club beta.
* As of Season 8, the Katana class has the most weapons out of any class in the game, with eight.
