Players are given ten orbs which fill every hour. Upon entering a battle, the Player utilizes whatever character leads their current selected team (the character on the far left) and are given two additional units. One of which is a friend in the Player's friend list, the other is another member of the same army the player is in. The player then participates in a 3v3 battle against three units from three players in the enemy army. The player's objective is to eliminate all three members of the enemy army. Light's Blessing can be used and does not affect the final score.
Once the player has eliminated all of the enemy's army, they are allowed to send a friend request to the non-friend player used in the battle. The player is then given a score based on the number of friends they have. Each friend the player has before the start of the battle adds a score of 10 to their final score, maxing out at 100 points with 10 friends. The player then can also expend Battle Flags to multiply their final score with a maximum of 200 Flags expended to give the player a 200x multiplier to their final score. Every hour, if the difference in score between the two armies exceed 3 million, the losing army receives a score multiplier for one hour, drastically increasing the total amount of points earned by players of that army. This multiplier stacks on the Battle Flag multipliers.
At the end of 45 hours, the total points earned between the two armies are tallied and the army with the highest cumulative score wins and moves on to the next round.
Players can acquire Hero Feathers throughout the Gauntlet. The player's Rank in their army at the end of each battle earns them a set number of Feathers and if their representative wins the battle, the winning team earns an additional 500 Feathers. The higher the player's rank is, the more feathers they acquire. They also acquire more feathers if their representative wins the war. Globally, based on the cumulative score of all players totals a certain amount, players will also receive Hero Feathers, Badges, and Orbs if a certain score is reached.
