4.2 How to Build Your Own Superstar?

You can boost your players' abilities through the "Training" and "Potential" systems found in the "Player" interface.

By spending Game Points, you can train a player's core stats like Dunk, Running, or 3point. Each stat has a growth cap, maxing out at +10 (player-dependent). Once a training level hits +7, you'll need special training items to keep pushing forward.

Trick Moves Activation Cards, earned from events and quests, let you unlock exclusive shooting and offensive moves in the "Trick Moves" system. Each Trick Move comes with visual effects and a 1-3% bonus effect chance (only active when the move triggers).

The "Talent System" lets you allocate Potential Points to specific positions.

Using Potential Points improves a player's key trigger abilities or adaptability for breakthrough angles. Every point spent delivers noticeable in-game feedback. You'll earn core points at account Lv. 10, Lv. 15, and Lv. 20. These core points significantly boost specialized abilities, helping you deliver clutch plays when it matters most!

Earn Player XP Books by completing in-game quests and participating in events. These XP Books will help you quickly level up your players.

Squad Mode is accessed via Quick Match. To unlock Squad Mode, you need to own three players and have an account that is Lv. 5 or higher.
