Manual control and Auto Fight

The lower-left area of the recording has AUTO and CONTROL buttons. The official description also confirms the choice between controlling a fighter and setting it to Auto Fight. Choose CONTROL when practising inputs. Choose AUTO when you want to observe automated play, and watch the selected state before assuming manual attacks are active.

  • Check which mode is selected.
  • Keep the battle area in focus when testing keyboard inputs.
  • Try a basic attack before testing a special move.
  • Check for cooldown numbers and readiness indicators.

When an input appears to do nothing

First check the control mode, the move card and your current battle state. A cooldown number or an unfilled percentage is useful information before you press the same input again. If the entire game is unresponsive, confirm Roblox has focus and reconnect through the official game page if needed. These troubleshooting checks do not establish a fix for every bug.

Console support is advertised by the developer. This guide does not assign unverified controller buttons or mobile gestures. Use the prompts on that device.
