Each three-team alliance has three ways to help defeat the boss:
  • Playing power ups. Alliances exchange power cubes for power ups. Power ups provide a timed advantage during the match. There are three power ups that can be played: Force, Boost, and Levitate.
  • Start rotors. Robots deliver gears to pilots on their airship for installation. Once the gear train is complete, they turn the crank to start the rotor.
  • Climbing the scale tower. Robots work together to climb the scale tower to face the boss.
