The Land War

Land War

One of the two season formats in which the god-champion system is normally used.

Story so far

Rosetta named the Land War alongside Battle Royale as the seasons where the Champion system actually gets used, in contrast to Dungeon Crawler World, where it is essentially never seen. The distinction underlines how irregular Princess Donut's Champion of Nekhebit title is and supports Milk's theory that Nekhebit engineered it deliberately.

Role

A season format that normally hosts god-champions.

Relationships

Champion of Nekhebit — A mechanic native to this format.
Battle Royale — The other format where champions appear.
