🧪 Using Consumables in Battle 🥊 Let’s dive deeper into how consumables work during fights and how they add another layer of strategy to Punch Protocol. ━━━━━━━━━━ ⚔️ Bringing consumables into battle During the Join phase, you can choose a consumable to take with you into the fight. Once selected, your consumable is displayed next to your fighter profile, meaning both players can see it before the battle starts. This creates an additional strategy layer: • You know your opponent has a consumable • Your opponent knows you have one too • Both sides can adapt their gameplan around it ━━━━━━━━━━ 🧪 Using consumables Consumables are activated during attack rounds. When submitting moves, you can choose the exact round where the consumable should be used (see pic 2). Examples: ❤️ Heal potion Best used after taking damage to recover HP 💥 Combo booster Best activated before a combo lands 🛡 Counter booster Strengthens your counterattack Using a consumable replaces your attack for that round. ━━━━━━━━━━ ⛔ Blocking consumables with Interrupt Consumable usage can be blocked using the Interrupt move. Interrupt is selected as part of your defense moves and replaces a normal block (see pic 3). If you correctly predict the exact round where your opponent activates a consumable: ✅ Consumable gets interrupted But there’s a risk: ❌ If the opponent performs a normal attack instead, your Interrupt does not block it. That means every decision becomes a tradeoff: • Block incoming attacks? • Or try to interrupt a consumable? ━━━━━━━━━━ 🧠 Strategic depth Consumables are not just stat boosts. You need to think about: • When your opponent may activate them • When to hide or reveal your intentions • Whether to defend normally or interrupt More mechanics and consumable types coming soon #PunchProtocol #Web3Gaming #GameDev

Another insane replay against Heizenberg the Cat🐈 Things started going south fast. HP was melting round after round, but the player managed to recover mid fight with a heal potion and keep trading punches with the boss. Then came the final rounds. Both sides dropped to critically low HP. One blocked punch. One hit slips through. The player survives with just 1 HP left... ...and lands the final blow to finish the boss. Closest boss fight so far. And fittingly, the reward drop was another heal potion. 🧪 Sometimes one hit is all it takes. #PunchProtocol #Base #GameFi #CryptoGaming #OnchainGaming
