The section below describes the gameplay in more detail –

The winner of each round is determined by a Health Bar.
The Max Health for each player is 2000 HP.
The win conditions for each round are:
- A win is awarded to the player with the higher health at the end of the round when the time has elapsed; or
- A win is awarded to the player who has successfully knocked-out an opponent (i.e. the player has reduced the opponent’s health to 0 HP before the round time has elapsed)

Strike zones located on the body (upper torso) and head.
Punches can only deal damage to the body. Punches to the head do not deal damage.
Kicks deal damage to both the body and head. Successful kicks to the head deal x2 damage.
Damage is calculated based on the acceleration of the strike and different acceleration levels will deal light, medium or high damage.
Strikes with insufficient acceleration will not deal any damage.

Players can block strikes using shields that are located on their forearms.
The attacking player does not deal any damage if the defending player successfully blocks a strike. Blocking a strike also reduces the attacking players stun meter by 50 points.

A stun immobilizes a player for 3 seconds and leaves the player defenseless against attacks.
When stunned, the opposing player can deal damage to the stunned player. Once the 3 seconds have elapsed, the previously stunned player can resume gameplay as per normal.
Each player has a stun meter with a max value of 1000 stun points.
1 damage point = 1 stun point
The stun meter is charged when a player successfully lands a strike (i.e. a light strike that deals 40 damage will award the player 40 stun points)
The player may reduce the other’s stun meter by successfully blocking a strike. Each block reduces the attackers stun value by 50 stun points.

A break is triggered when both players are in proximity for 2 seconds.
Once the break is triggered, both players need to return to their starting point, marked by a yellow circle in game, to resume the match.

A referee timeout is a “manual intervention” called by the Game Master. The game can only be resumed by the Game Master.
