# An Even Playing Field

Since there are financial stakes to our game - we believe it is of utmost importance that the game has zero pay-to-win elements.

To this end, we have made it so that *every playable card in the game can be unlocked simply by playing the game* and the only thing that can be purchased within the game is unlockable cosmetics.

Players earn experience points at the end of every match. After gaining a certain number of experience points, players will level up and unlock a new card.

#### Matchmaking

At launch, matchmaking will be very simple and connect players to other players searching for a game without any conditions. This is to allow for players to find a game more easily and quickly while our community is still growing.

However, after a certain point we will introduce new matchmaking rules that only connect players within the same level bracket with access to the same cards.

#### Card Balance

Finally, our team intends to release frequent balance changes to cards in the game in response to community feedback as well as internal game data. This is not only to keep the game fair but also to shake up the meta and keep it fresh.
