You will have the opportunity to select an ally before a battle. Select one that has an element that is strong against your opponents. Make friends to earn more ally points after a battle. When you take friends into battle, you will be awarded more points at the end of a match. Points can be used to draw for more robots.
Elements
Every bot has an element. Thermal is strong against Bio, but weak against Hydro. Hydro is strong against Thermal, but weak against Bio. Bio is strong against Hydro, but weak against Thermal. Solar and Magnetic are neutral to each other.
Energy
If you select an energy reward, it will stack with your current total, even if it overflows the maximum number.
Experience
Participate in daily and weekly events to earn experience points and evolution parts. Tap the glowing portal on the map screen to enter special events. Although it costs a lot of energy to enter them, it is a good way to earn robots that can level up your team. You can also battle for bot parts and use them to evolve your team.
Leveling
Only level robots that are of higher rarity. Do not level up "Common" tier robots too much as they will soon be replaced. Only level up your starter robots enough to win the early fights until they can be replaced.
Matches
If possible, avoid single three piece matches. Moves are limited and each one you use allows your enemies to be one step closer to attacking. Create many four and five piece matches as possible.
Prisms
Prisms are the game's premium currency. Save them to have a chance at getting a rare robot.
Skills
Your robots' skill meters will fill as you fight. Use them when they become available. Different robots have different skills; some are defensive and other offensive. Robots that are in rare tiers have more powerful skills.
Special power cells
Match power cells in a particular combo to create a special power cell. Hyper power cells are made when four of the same colored power cells are used in a match. Depending how the match was created, it will activate an entire row or column. Turbo power cells are made when five of the same colored power cells are used in matched in an "L" or "T" shape. They will activate power cells in a 3x3 area. Super power cells are created when five of the same colored power cells are matched vertically or horizontally. Match the new super power cell with any other power cell will activate all power cells of that same color.
