In the framework of this article, TraderH4 will show how to choose the strongest Axie squad and support combos for animals to increase stats such as strength, counterattack, ... through cards.

Instructions on how to arrange squad positions in Axie Infinity

Players must have 3 monsters to start playing the game. So how is this Axie lineup arranged? Let's find out the details of this arrangement in the game Axie Infinity!

The arrangement of Axies with high, medium, and low strength depends on their position and role in the squad. 

First place – Axie Tank 

This first Axie is called Tank. They are a defensive barrier, specializing in blocking the opponent's attacks. Therefore, these Axies require high HP and large defense cards to withstand high damage. For example, the Axie group belongs to the Plant system, has infarction cards, creates armor and must have HP > 50.

Second place – Axie support

These Axies are like midfielders, players should choose Axie in the support group. They operate in the midfield and play a very important role in the success or failure of the squad. In this position, it requires Axies with damage as well as possessing HP and skill cards in the mid-range, but it is necessary to have skill cards to support the team such as skills to steal energy, skills to draw more cards ... Axie system Beast is the best, 2 skills are needed are Ronin and IMP, harass with strong enemy team and give maximum support to your team. 

Last place – Axie dame

These Axies only attack, so it's safest in the squad. However, these Axies need high speed to increase their ability to perform attacks with the power to deal damage to the opponent's squad. Axie belongs to the fish system (Aquatic) with the skill Toolthlesbite or Shrimp or possesses the Morale index, Skill are suitable options.

Good stats and skill cards to play Axie Infinity

Priority stats in the game Axie Infinity 

Each Axie has different characteristics because they have different HP, Skill, Morale, and Speed ​​stats. 

• HP (Health): This stat shows how much damage your Axie can take before being killed. The higher the HP, the stronger the monster.
• Morale: This stat shows the monster's chance to perform Critical Hits (Crit). In addition, the Morale stat also helps the team increase the chance to enter the final rounds higher. 
• Skill: This is the element that helps Axie play multiple cards at the same time, adding damage when fighting. Because the bonus damage is calculated as follows: (card attack * skill) / 500.
• Speed: This stat determines the sort order of the Axies. Axie with faster speed will be placed in the attack line first. If two Axes have the same speed, then the order of attack will be determined: High Speed ​​> Low HP > High Skill > High Morale > Low Warrior ID.

Priority skill cards in the game Axie Infinity 

Besides the stats, the skill cards are also an important factor to help players choose the right Axies for their squad. For example, Axie Tanks require cards with Shiitake and Rosebud skills, which will help them live long in battle. Axie Attacker owns cards with skills Single Combat, Nut Throw, Nut Crack, capable of supporting the team more. 

Structure of a card

• Ace 
• Energy Consumption 
• Damage rate 
• Armor
• Function 

Priority cards 

• High Damage Rate Cards: These cards are really vital to building a successful new Axie team. Cards with a high damage ratio allow players to fight more effectively than their opponents while holding fewer cards. 
• Cards with many armor stats: This is a card that helps you increase your survival rate, especially necessary with the defensive Axie Tank group in the squad. 
• Targeting Cards Prioritizing: Although many would argue that these cards are not the primary goal for the newly formed Axie team. However, owning these cards will help players eliminate weak Axies and have a specific strategy for the following rounds.
• Cards that increase energy: Possessing a lot of energy allows the player to have many options in the round. Especially this group of cards is extremely important for Axie support.

Instructions on how to build Axie Infinity team for beginners

Some skills when playing Axie Infinity

To win, players not only own monsters with strong squads, but also have to master important skills when playing the game Axie Infinity. 

• Skills when building a team

You may not have the strongest, most ideal squad, but you know how to build the right squad for each level and still have the ability to win the opponent. In the team should have 1-2 energy cards because the energy the game provides will be difficult to defeat the opponent. In addition, players should pay attention to speed and health are important factors to help you win. 

• PVE fighting skills

 PVE (vs system) under “Adventure”. New players should start by playing against the system. With 20 E offered for free (losing doesn't cost E), players not only get bonus tokens, but Axie monsters get stronger when trained with the machine.

• PVP fighting skills

 PVP (against other players) in the “Arena” section. To fight directly with others requires players to have tactics and combat experience. I don't know how many matches I have lost, players just need to persevere in making 5 wins per day to be able to receive bonus tokens. So you should prioritize energy for PVE then go back to fighting PVP. Besides, in this battle mode, players should arrange the Axies with a lot of armor and health first (Plant) to be able to take the blow instead of the remaining Axies. You can completely skip the round if you find that you cannot take down the opponent to preserve the energy of the Axie team. 

Overview of how to play Axie Infinity game for beginners

Here is a suggestion on how to play the game Axie Infinity suitable for newbies.

Phase 1: Divide the energy equally between PVE and PVP

Every day players should use 10 energy to play PVE & 10 energy to play PVP. So you can both level up Axie in PVE battle mode and win enough matches in PVP to receive rewards from daily missions and gain experience playing Axie Infinity.

Stage 2: Continue to practice persistently with PVE

As Axie level up in PVE, you get better bonus SLP and EXP. After running out of energy for the day, players can still continue to play PVE to receive SLP if the 50 SLP limit has not been reached. Keep practicing until the Axie team reaches Level 25 (the highest) or you have played well at level 20 (the optimal level). This is an effective strategy for new players.

Stage 3: Focusing energy on PVP

The way to play Axie Infinity at this stage is to use 20 energy per day to play in PVP mode. Then play in level 20 PVE mode without using energy, until you reach the 50 SLP limit from this battle mode. The higher Axie leveled up in the PVE, the higher level battle rounds would have better SLP and EXP rewards.

Basic note for beginners when starting to build a team

The main classes in the game Axie Infinity

Like so many other strategy games, the game NFT Axie Infinity is similar. To ensure the balance of the game, the incompatibility system appears. The animals in Axie are divided into 9 different systems, depending on their unique characteristics that will counter each other. And players can freely arrange the squad to win against the opponent.

There are 9 systems: Plant (plant), Reptile (reptile), Dusk (dark), Beast (beast), Bug (beetle), Mech (technology), Aqua (water), Bird (bird) ), Dawm (light).

Summary of the most

Beast, Beast, Tank

Owning this squad, you can take advantage up to level 34 to fight Pve (pk feature between monsters and players) and Pvp (player versus player). Later on, the damage ratio of the monster will not be much anymore, but will cause quite a lot of debuffs (bad effects such as speed reduction, damage reduction) and armor. This is a pretty big obstacle and requires you to increase damage more (with Dual Blade) and use 1 last Tank to help increase damage during the match.

• First Beast: Scarab, Dual Blade, Nut Cracker, Hare and 1 Bird for higher speed and full effect of Hare.

• 2nd Beast: Scarab, Dual Blade, Double Nut cracker take steady damage with Double Nutcracker.

• 3rd Tank: Snake Jar with Hermit or Bulkwark

Tank, Tank, Beast

In contrast to the above lineup, the Tank Tank Beast squad has the ability to self-heal in the early game and this is a huge advantage. If you are a genuine gamer, then you can understand it roughly like the Nga My faction in other swordplay games that has a blood buff skill for yourself and your teammates.

• Specifically, the first Tank was launched to absorb all the damage for himself.

• Tank 2 will deal support damage and block the next attack if the first Tank dies.

• Finally Beast will use Nut Cracker to deal damage to the opponent.

Tank, Bird, Beast

This is a relatively stable lineup with Bird and Beast both with high damage. Specifically, Bird has a higher speed than low level monsters, so it is easy to clear monsters at the first level.
