Axie Delegation and New Features
The S11 Preseason also marks the introduction of Axie Delegation in the Origins arena. This feature allows Scholars to earn rewards in battle by delegating their axies. Delegation Phase 1 is now complete, and players can delegate their axies in the app.
Additionally, players can now test Upgraded Runes in the arena by combining duplicate Runes to make them more powerful. This feature is available for testing during the preseason, allowing players to experiment with different strategies before the main season begins.
Era-Based Testing and Tournaments
During the S11 Preseason, players can unlock new Runes and Charms test kits in the Origins Shop every week. These items will be free to test until the main season starts. The preseason will feature three special tournaments, known as the Preseason Era Cups, to further test the new upgraded Runes.
Each tournament corresponds to a different era—Rare, Epic, and Mystic—and offers a prize pool of AXS tokens. The tournaments will follow a single-elimination format, with the Grand Finals being a best-of-five series.
Community Engagement and Future Updates
The Origins S11 Preseason is designed to engage the community and gather feedback on the new features. Players are encouraged to explore the new game modes, earn AXP, and share their thoughts with the development team.
The preseason serves as a testing ground for the new features, particularly Rune Upgrading, to ensure a smooth launch for the official season. As the season launch approaches, more details about leaderboards, crafting, and the scrap system will be shared.
The Origins S11 Preseason offers a unique blend of spooky fun and strategic gameplay, setting the stage for an exciting new season in Axie Infinity. Players can look forward to testing new features, participating in tournaments, and earning rewards as they prepare for the main season.
