The Battle Pass is back with its legendary grinding map - The Cavern Crawl! This year it's back with two maps instead of one - Nightsilver and Foulfell.
The basic aim of players is to crawl through the maze-like cavern by completing games using a specific hero mentioned. Each room can be unlocked by playing that hero. Once a room is unlocked you are rewarded and given multiple new paths to other rooms. Stay tuned for a comprehensive list of tips and tricks on how to complete these maps efficiently and gain those spectacular rewards!
You stumble upon a hero. There are two ways of defeating it without using any help.
- Play and win a Normal All-pick or Ranked match.
- Play and win two Turbo matches.
You will face multiple obstacles such as:
- Chasm - It will block your path, and cannot be crossed.
- Fractal Mirror - It blocks your path but can be shattered.
- Mystery Challenge.
Upon reaching the Oracle it will reveal the location of a high-value reward. This all may sound difficult, but don't worry! You are given an Inventory in which you can store consumable tools that will make your crawl easier.
Consumable tools found on the way:
- Sacred Arrow - It can be used in shattering Fractal Mirrors.
- Rocket Flare - These can be used to scout unexplored rooms.
- Netherswap Wand - Used to swap the current hero with a random one.
- Culling Blade - Damages an existing hero, or kills a wounded hero that was defeated once in Turbo.
