What would a fighting game be without its fun and diverse cast of playable characters? Here's just a handful of the loveable (and despicable) fighters you can choose from!

Clyde is a boxing prodigy with an attitude, and one of the most renowned fighters in the world. Clyde doesn't need any weapons; his fists, his natural speed, and his ability to create fire from his hands are all he needs to put up a good fight!
TRAILBLAZER - Rush in and overwhelm your opponents with Clyde's incredible speed and offensive capabilities!
BRING THE HEAT - Clyde's special moves are focused on raw power and combo utility, delivering fiery punches left and right!
KING OF THE RING - Keep your opponent on the ropes with fast mix-ups that force equally fast reactions!

Annie is a young engineer with a big brain, and an even bigger heart. Using her powerful mechanical arm, her vast arsenal of gadgets, and her helpful robotic companion Gizmo, she holds her own even despite her lack of experience!
GADGET GIRL - Annie's wide array of projectiles and traps let her set up an unbreakable defense, and she has the tools to easily convert her long-range zoning into close-up pressure!
BLAST OFF - Annie's special rocket boots grant her a midair jump, as well as the ability to drastically slow her descent!
HELPING HAND - Annie's Super Moves summon her little robo-buddy Gizmo to assist her in various ways, like firing massive lasers or carpet-bombing the whole stage!

Long ago, Rattlebone was a royal knight who loyally served his kingdom, until one day he fell victim to a horrible trebuchet accident. Now, revived into the modern day in skeletal form, he continues to fight as honourably as ever with his trusty sword and shield!
FOR HONOUR - An honest and noble fighter, Rattlebone is primarily focused on the absolute fundamentals of combat!
RATTLE ME BONES - Rattlebone's skeletal form grants him plenty of new techniques, like throwing his own head as a bouncing projectile!
CHIVALROUS SPIRIT - Unleash a powerful Super Move that imbues Rattlebone's sword with special properties for a limited time!

Shoto is a young, yet highly skilled student of the Locks Dojo. While he may have the personality of a cardboard box, his powers of electricity and his unbreakable focus in combat make him a force to be reckoned with!
GREASED LIGHTNING- Shoto's attacks are fast and precise, giving him a natural advantage in hand-to-hand combat!
GLASS CANNON - Shoto may sport a low health pool, but he's got lots of ways to dish out far more damage in return!
SHOTOKAN SPECIAL - With straightforward projectiles, a powerful uppercut, and a flurry of advancing kicks, Shoto remains true to his namesake while putting his own unique spin on the formula!

A brash, delinquent punk from the Capital, Red's aggressive and brutish nature is reflected in his fighting style. Red aims to get in his opponent's face and stay there, relentlessly beating them down with his energy beam!
BRUTE STRENGTH - Red is a powerful attacker who prefers to brute-force his way in, rather than relying on speed or zoning.
UNYIELDING RAGE - Red's special Rage mechanic lets him unleash stronger versions of his special moves after taking or dealing enough damage!
SMASHIN' KNEECAPS - Thanks to his many grappling attacks and deadly mix-ups, Red almost never has to let up his offense once he has the advantage!

Often called the "strongest man alive", Baron's overwhelming desire to fight strong opponents led him down a dark, bloody path that ended with a life sentence. Now set free again thanks to the manipulation of Sylvan Blackjack, his titanic strength and powerful grappling techniques will crush all who oppose him.
WRESTLING LEGEND - Baron's mighty grappling moves can dish out damage like nothing else, and can even be comboed together under the right circumstances!
UNBREAKABLE - With a huge HP pool and a variety of armoured attacks, Baron is both an unstoppable force, AND an immovable object!
THE BIGGER THEY ARE... - Baron's great power comes at the cost of mobility. Use your techniques wisely to keep the opponent on the back foot and avoid getting overwhelmed!

Sylvan is the founder and CEO of the Diamondeye Company, one of the largest and richest corporations in the world. Naturally, this can only mean that Sylvan is as sleazy and underhanded as they come, and he'll put all his chips down to get the job done.
ACES HIGH - Sylvan revolves around his card drawing mechanic. The more Aces he draws using his card draw attacks, the more options he gains!
FULL HOUSE - When Sylvan has all 4 aces, he enters a state called Full House mode, where he becomes the most powerful character in the game for a limited time!
GOOD LUCK - It can take some time and luck to get to Full House mode, but tools like a slot machine that grants random effects, and your faithful bodyguard Mr. Withers, can help buy you some time.

Once a feared high-seas pirate, Shiverskull is back from the dead to plunder the competition! With his twin swords and the help of his trusted pirate crew, he isn't afraid to take some serious risks to win. You can't kill what's already dead!
AYE, MATEYS - Shiverskull can summon the members of his pirate crew one after another to perform assist attacks, each with their own strengths and uses!
RECKLESS SAILOR - Shiverskull is great when it comes to running in and putting on the pressure — but be careful, as messing up can cost you dearly!
MORE SWORDS - Wield a deadly Super Move that summons a ring of damaging swords around you for a short time!

Black Heart is an alien parasite that feeds off people's inner hatred to take on their form. Having taken the form of Clyde, Black Heart inherits his speed and fire abilities, but like the trickster they are, they use those powers in much more devious ways.
TRICKSTER - Black Heart is capable of all sorts of mix-ups that are extremely difficult to react to, forcing their opponents into a guessing game!
SLIPPERY SLIME - Black Heart has some of the trickiest movement in the game, with unique dashes and special moves that let them easily dodge enemy attacks!
HEART BREAKER - Rain terror with a Super Move that traps the opponent in a massive smoke cloud, letting you be nearly invisible as you get in their face!

Everyone's favourite green, legless superhero, Callowman blurs the line a bit between bravery and stupidity. But regardless of his quality as a hero, he certainly has the raw strength to warrant being called the mightiest warrior in the universe!
GRAPPLING WITH EVIL - Callowman's slew of advancing grappling attacks make him extremely fearsome to fight, especially since he's no slouch on speed!
SHOW OFF - Successfully taunting as Callowman powers up your grabbing attacks, and you can use them in combos! Now that's what I call a flex!
ALMIGHTY POWER - One of Callowman's Super Moves, if used with a full Super Meter AND a full taunt-buff meter, can instantly KO the opponent!!

The fourth-wall-breaking, two-dimensional menace, Doodle emerges from the depths of development hell to exact his revenge for all the cancelled games he was meant to star in. The first step of his vengeance quest? Breaking ALL the rules!
CHARGE UP - Doodle goes against the game's normal control scheme, introducing special moves inputted with charge motions!
SCREEN HOG - Doodle's lingering projectiles can create difficult situations for the opponent to get around, especially since he's no slouch on offense either!
METER BURNER - Unload tons of damage with a Super Move that lets you spend even more meter to increase its power!
And this is just a small sample! There are even more characters to discover for yourself when you hop into the game! So what are you waiting for? Get in there and SHOW YOUR POWER!!

THIS HAS BECOME ONE OF MY FAVOURITE FIGHTING GAMES OAL! Its preety unique and the characters also are really cool i especialy like Yosei , Lumina and Sir Rattlebone but it needs online mode BADLY Dof>SF
Very fun game. Its very floaty which makes it stand out from the other fighting games i play. The combos are very lenient so i basically just play this game for the combos. The solo aspect of the game are also pretty fun since there are alot of challenges and bosses. The characters are also very diverse so you'll get alot of enjoyment just playing around with them. I hope more people would give this game a chance.
(im a bad typer pls ignore my mistakes) was looking for a fighting game to play the felt good but wouldnt really hurt me finacally and found this the combat felt smooth and decently balanced while im not the best at fighting games im at least decent so to more casual players this is easy to get into especailly with how each move is just a direction and a button compared to most fighters the few gripes i have is some characters feel a bit similar but with the more recent characters that has changed so i dont see it as a massive issue my only other issue so far is some mini games or missons feel a tad unbalanced at the moment ethier to rng or janky stuff but since this isnt the full game im not worried about it too much regardless of that i love this game and would reccomed you give it a try
I've been playing duels semi consistently for about a few months now. After clearing the mission and now grinding through the lore unlocks, I have to say I absolutely love this game. To the point where I plan on introducing this game to others when I get to college and holding tournaments (all i can think about at this point is comp viability please god nerf annie, the safety she gets because of reverse beat despite being a zoner is ridiculous), recording videos, like using my love for this game to push it to newer heights. I have so many thoughts and opinions and questions and I just adore this silly ass game. Please push updates as constant as you can manage Please make new content The doodle rework was so good, not because I thought he needed it, but because I got to relearn him and how he interacts with everyone else Please don't give up on this game for a longggggg longgggg time
My one critique is there is no online, which i get is probably a lot to do for a free game but and i'm no programmer but idk
Under rated as heck but very fun to play combos feel so rewarded to hit and everyone feels fun to play
muito bom
