Drones

Every robot is accompanied by its drone, playing a pivotal role in gameplay strategies and mechanics.

  • Deployment: The drone must be placed on the map during the first phase of the first turn of a match.

  • Terrain Exploration: Drones are utilized for revealing terrain during a duel, aiding in strategic positioning and planning.

  • Blocking Path: A drone can block the path of an opponent, potentially strategizing movement and positioning. However, it does not block the path for its owner (the robot), allowing free movement.

  • Attack Interception: A drone is capable of blocking one attack from an opponent, serving as a shield in critical moments. It does not intercept attacks from its owner.

  • Vulnerability: Drones can be destroyed by traps set on the battlefield or directly by an opponent's attack.

  • Permanent Destruction: Once destroyed, a drone cannot return to the same duel, making its preservation vital for sustained advantage.

  • Special Skill: Each drone possesses a unique skill that automatically marks an opponent with a flare, highlighting their position and making them easier to target.

Drones add a layer of depth and tactical nuance to RoboHero, encouraging players to think creatively about how to use their drone effectively in conjunction with their robot's abilities.
