An adjustment when cultivation are equal:

When two players with the same cultivation (including speed) engage in combat, the one randomly assigned to act second will receive a compensation effect called \"Will of Desperate Combat\": After HP drops to 0 for the first time, enter the \"Unbeaten in Desperate Combat\" state. In this state, you cannot be defeated and will continue fighting until the end of your turn or until the opponent is defeated.

With the introduction of the mechanic allowing actions to continue after HP drops to 0, all HP-increasing effects will now take effect even when HP is 0 (previously, only revival effects could do so). If HP is greater than 0 after card effects are resolved, the player will continue fighting and will not be considered defeated.

This compensatory action, whether it involves attacking or increasing HP, can narrow the HP gap between the two players, thereby reducing the Destiny Damage taken. If the player\'s HP is restored above 0, they will revive and continue fighting. However, the \"Will of Desperate Combat\" effect will be removed at the end of the turn and will not trigger again. If the player can reduce the opponent\'s HP below their own, they may even turn the tables and achieve victory when effects are resolved.

During this testing period, we warmly welcome all players to try it out and share your feedback. We will continue to refine and optimize the gaming experience

Matchmaking Mechanism Optimization:

For players with a historical peak rating of 6000, regardless of their current rating, if matchmaking takes too long, they will be able to be matched with other players rated above 6000. This is intended to speed up matchmaking in higher rating brackets.

As compensation:

When matched against a player with a higher rating due to this mechanism, additional rating points will be awarded in the result calculation.

When matched against a player with a significantly lower rating due to this mechanism, the opponent will be treated as having a rating of 6000 for result calculation purposes, reducing the rating gain decay caused by large rating differences.
