Grail Battles
Grail Battles are a special kind of battle that require Grail Tickets to initiate.
Grail Tickets are available as Holy Grail rewards and are also included in some card pack purchases.
In Grail Battles, you will assemble a team of 6 units and attempt to defeat the Black Dawn - a band of Dark Elves bent on world domination.
Of course, the leader units of your allies may also assist you in battle.
Victory will be awarded to the team that has the most health remaining at the end of 30 turns.
Winning a Grail Battle will earn you Black Cups.
The fewer enemies that remain at the end of battle, the more Black Cups you will receive.
If you manage to defeat all of your opponent's units, you will achieve a "Perfect Victory" and will receive a large number of Black Cups.
- You will always receive Black Cups, even if you lose. However, you will only get a number of Black Cups equal to the number of Grail Tickets spent to initiate the Grail Battle when you lose.
Whenever you lose or achieve a victory that is not a "Perfect Victory", you will have the opportunity to use a Potion to restore your HP and continue with the battle.
Continuing will cause all active skill effects to reset.
Additionally, you can deploy newly added units in Grail Battles to receive bonuses to those units' HPs, attack powers, and speeds.
The strength of the bonus depends on the rarity of the unit. Rarer units offer larger bonuses.
The newly added units are listed below.
Soleil, Stealer of the Sun(6★)
Brave, Tribal Warrior(5★)
Gracia, Sword Juggler(5★)
Felsen the Geomancer(4★)
Licia, Teenage Witch(4★)
- Arena skills are not available during Grail Battles.
- Allies that have one of the above units set as their leader unit will not receive bonuses when participating in one of your Grail Battles.
- Grail Tickets cannot be traded.
- You can only use Grail Tickets during the Black Sun Rising event.

Push Notifications
You can send Push Notifications to players you have sent Black Cups to.

Sending Push Notifications will award you with a BT Pts bonus.
The size of the bonus depends on the number of people you send marks to right before you send your Push Notifications. You will receive 10 bonus BT Pts for each person you send a notification to.
You will receive these bonus BT Pts regardless of whether or not your allies have Push Notifications disabled through their settings.
You can set whether or not you want to receive event-related Push Notifications via the main page of the event.
Alternatively, you can also adjust these settings via the Options tab on your main page.
