1.From @Kbriefy
All blockchain games to be successful have to focus on globalization. So what are the strategies RiseDefenders implements to expand adoption & attract more users? Will the game be multilanguage for those who do not speak or understand English correctly?

2. From @jerryevaan
What do I need to start playing the game of their RiseDefenders ecosystem, that is, they require some initial investment to be able to play, e.g. to buy useful items of the game or this game generates the same opportunities to play for those who have and do not have money?

Mr. Huy Minh: Rise of Defenders has 2 approaches, Free to Play and Play to Earn, for players to choose freely. Each player participating in the game will be granted an initial 02 Hero, to go faster and have a chance to receive more rewards, players can choose to buy NFTs to increase their significant strength in the game. The initial investment amount can be from $88 or more, of course, the chance to receive rewards will also correspond to players with high strength. Every day, players will be given energy to play the game with a certain number of turns.

3. From @SilakYamon
I can see that there are a total of "8 categories" of tournaments for players to conquer, each with attractive cumulative rewards . So, what are the 8 categories available & how do players play them? And what cumulative rewards do players get from each of those categories?

Mr. Huy Minh: In Tournament mode, all players are pitted against one other in an eternal combat. The greater the player's score and the higher the rating, the more monsters you kill.
Each season is one week long. When the season is through, the system will total the points and award players, as well as set up promotion and relegation depending on the player's performance, and prepare for the next season to begin. There will be a total of 8 ranks for participants to conquer in the tournament, with each level equating to an increasing prize, such as:

- Copper: RDG
- Silver: RDG
- Gold: RDG
- Platium: RDG
- Diamond: RDR & RDG
- Elite, Master. Emperor: RDR & RDG & Premium Loot box

4. From @duetdaily
Not all NFTs that are offered in the market are valuable, How will RiseDefenders ensure that the NFTs that are manufactured, issued & traded on its platform are valuable and successful, and what strategies will it use to make them competitive in this fierce market?

Mr. Huy Minh:  All of our NFTs are individually designed and have unique value, serving different in-game features.
Given the limited quantity offered and the immense use value of NFTs in the game, their value will increase over time, increasing the value of the player's benefit in terms of game rewards based on strength. strong NFTs hold.

5. From @sterbenlias
I have read about the economy in the game but there are still some issues that I don't understand, can you talk a little bit about the economy in the game? And how is the inflation reduction mechanism of 2 tokens $RDG and $RDR? 

Mr. Huy Minh: The project has 2 tokens in the ecosystem, RDG and RDR.

- With RDG as an in-game token, this token players can use to upgrade and increase their power to have more chances of getting bigger rewards behind.
- RDR is Governance token, this token can also be used for special upgrades in the game, used to buy NFTs, Staking or Trading on CEX & DEX exchanges. In addition, with the orientation to become a DAO organization, RDR token holders will have the right to participate in voting on the development plan of some important project features.

We've designed the in-game economy so that every player is ready to use the early rewards to upgrade their strength in the game and the opportunity for greater rewards later through PvE & PvP game modes.
On the other hand, holding NFTs and tokens will have many benefits behind such as Staking rewards from the allocation fund for Staker (19% of total supply), sharing project profits... That makes inflation in the game difficult takes place.

The combat will conclude when either player's heroes are destroyed or the match timer runs out. If the match ends due to a time limit, the hero party member with the highest percentage of remaining HP wins.
Similar to the Tournament game mode, in Arena there is also a rank system to rank players as well as the rewards they receive. The player who wins each battle will receive the corresponding reward and Elo points, while the player who loses will not receive the reward and forfeit Elo points.
