Illuvium Report by Jesse
Avalanche wins this week’s crown for sick gains with a 150% increase in value coming off the recently announced plans to integrate with Aave and Curve Finance. With such a huge run in price, usually, a pullback is to be expected. But, recent runs like the Axie Infinity snowball remind us all that anything is possible with these markets. A road that this week’s reviewed upcoming AAA play-to-earn blockchain game Illuvium is starting to turn down.
Introduction
Illuvium is a decentralized, NFT collection and auto battler game built on the Ethereum network. Integrated with the hyper-scalable Immutable-X L2 solution, players of Illuvium gain access to zero gas fees for minting or exchanging of assets as well as sub-second transaction times, with users always maintaining custody. Illuvium is an open-world narrative-driven exploration game. A unique blend of sci-fi and fantasy where you travel from region to region battling and capturing Illuvials, then using them as part of your assembled team. Building around an entire world of iconic, collectible NFT characters designed by some of the world’s most talented artists. These include ultra-rare Illuvials made with never-before-seen 4D holographic shading techniques to offers the community a unique opportunity to collect, trade, battle, and earn rare in-game assets. Illuvium combines elements of traditional RPG collection games with fight mechanics seen in the popular Auto Battler genre.

Over time they grow and evolve, taking on new, more powerful forms. Each Illuvial has an affinity for certain elements in the world around them, making them more powerful in some situations than others. Players are heavily rewarded when adding Illuvials that leverage the strengths of their existing team. Some Illuvials are more common than others, with the rarest almost never being seen, let alone captured. The power of Illuvials also varies and is loosely related to their rarity. If you manage to defeat them in battle, you can collect them in “Shards” stored on the blockchain. If you don’t have much time to play, but still want a powerful deck, you can opt to buy Illuvials from other players. The rarest of creatures are always Shiny, Gold, or Holographic captures. These are far less common and far more valuable.
One of the many ways Illuvium differentiates itself from other RPGs is in combat, which is not turn-based. Instead, each combat instance is an auto-battle, where the player selects and places their Illuvials strategically with the intention of countering their opponent. As such it is extremely important to select Illuvials that synergize well with each other, and are strong against the opponent’s selection. The most important attributes of an Illuvial are their Affinity and Class. There are…
