Home Field Advantage	comment	In a Real Life Sporting Event, a Home Team or Home Field Advantage refers to the slight edge given to a team playing on their own turf in a match. This exists because of the subtle differences between various sporting venues and the home team already being accustomed to their own court or field or rink, and also because the crowd at a game will usually overwhelmingly support the home team, thus presenting a psychological advantage. While it can give a slight boost to the home team or bring the away team down by a small margin, usually this is not enough to make much of a difference in the game's outcome. But, in fiction, something so mundane would be boring or require some over the top effects to work like they want. So what do you do? It can be as simple as taking the above mentioned subtle differences and making them such large alterations that it throws the away team off completely. Perhaps the psychological advantage is huge, rather than small. Perhaps the game awards points based on popularity. Perhaps the game and field are complex enough that every field is unique (like golf) and/or deadly (not like golf). You could set the playing field itself against them (again, like golf, only it's alive and maybe trying to kill you). All that matters is that whoever is battling on their own turf has a serious advantage that poses a legitimate threat to the other side's winning chances. Often involves Geo Effects, taking advantage of the terrain. Of course, this isn't just about sports. If the bad guys attack the hero in his hometown, or their base of operations, he's bound to have a few tricks up his sleeve along with whatever allies he happens to be fighting alongside in defense of their home. Even if he doesn't have anything prepared, who knows his home better than he does? Perhaps you're a local hero and everyone supports you, actively or clandestinely, in your fight against the rampaging killbots. Perhaps you're a Physical God, and your home is literally part of you. Perhaps you can even change the local laws of physics to confound attackers. The possibilities are endless. In military history, this is Truth in Television. From antiquity to the present era, Guerrilla fighters from La RÃ©sistance who know their home region's terrain and environment are able to outfox better-equipped conventional armies.

Home Field Advantage / int_10175749	comment	In Aquaman, the first duel between Arthur and his half-brother Orm is in Orm's favor due to this. Arthur has spent most of his life on land, and though he was trained in the ways of Atlantean combat by Vulko, he's still a relative novice at fighting underwater. Orm on the other hand has spent his whole life underwater and has been trained since childhood to be a master of fighting underwater. Arthur is able to hold his own for a bit, but it becomes painfully clear that he has no chance of winning. Mera's intervention is the only thing that saves Arthur's life. In their rematch, Mera advises Arthur to take the fight to his home turf, so Arthur forces them to the surface. Orm is not used to fighting on the surface, while Arthur is, allowing Arthur to defeat him.

Home Field Advantage / int_10510c81	comment	In the Iron Druid Chronicles druids are wise about this. Atticus has some very powerful enemies looking for him so he spent at least a century setting up his defenses. He befriended all the local nature spirits, allied himself with the local vampire lord and the local werewolf pack and put multiple layers of magical and mundane protections on his home and workplace. His ultimate home field advantage comes from an arrangement he has with Morrigan, one of his pantheon's Death Gods. As long as any battle he is in takes place under the jurisdiction of that god, Atticus cannot die in it. Unfortunately his enemy goes to extraordinary lengths to nullify all those advantages including making sure that the final battle happens where Morrigan has no jurisdiction and cannot interfere.

Home Field Advantage / int_135f4195	comment	In Dune, the Fremen have lived their entire lives on the harsh desert world of Arrakis (AKA Dune). They have intimate knowledge of the desert and have learned how to ride the gigantic Sand Worms. Meanwhile, The Empire has the Sardaukar, who are rightfully considered to be the best soldiers in the galaxy due to their own Death World (although that one is a radioactive wasteland due to nuclear bombardment). However, they're also experienced with using personnel shields, which require a specific form of blade fighting. Since using shields on Arrakis is suicide (they attract the worms and drive them crazy), the Sardaukar end up being slaughtered by the Fremen, although not without inflicting casualties of their own (usually at 3-to-1 ratios). Subverted in the sequels, where it's mentioned that the Fremen have somehow managed to conquer most of the known worlds despite wildly different climates.

This means that the spirit worlds of Soul Society and Hueco Mundo are where these beings are at their most powerful. Furthermore, captain-level Soul Reapers willingly limit themselves with Power Nullifiers which cut their power down 80% before taking on missions on Earth, because with their level of power, they're pretty much Walking Disaster Areas. In the spirit world, however, they can feel free to cut loose.

The same thing applies to her Evil Counterpart. This is said to be the main reason Erandis d'Vol is still alive; while within her sanctum she can perform magical feats of such absurd power (one of the given examples being "summon Future Badass ghosts of anyone who enters the sanctum, under her control") that even if they know where it is, the more heavyweight factions of the setting don't consider it worth the trouble to attack her. The Wardens of the Wood take this to its logical extreme: their leader Oalian is a level 20 druid... but also a tree, making him incapable of leaving his home field at all.

Saber agrees, as she also has an advantage with water (she was blessed with a Walk on Water ability). Everyone turns to Rider... who just shrugs and says it doesn't make a difference to her. As in canon, Servants can get a hefty power boost from being in their home country. Fiore's Servant Gunner is Japanese, giving her an advantage. Illya's Berserker is also Japanese, which might be why she was able to overpower three Servants at once, but it's not stated outright.

However, Class E is able to curb stomp the mercenaries once they're given time to prepare. One of the factors contributing to this is the fact that the mercenaries are unfamiliar with the area while Class E has spent the past year training on the mountain to the point where they know the layout like the back of their hand, and setting traps for Koro-sensei that they can now re-purpose against the mercenaries.

Home Field Advantage / int_418bde20	comment	PokÃ©mon Conquest: There is a kingdom in Ransei for every PokÃ©mon type (save the Fairy-type, which was introduced next Generation), and many of the kingdom battlefields are designed to offer a benefit to PokÃ©mon of that kingdom's type. Ignis has a giant pool of lava in the middle, with criss-cross bridges over its breadth, and several places where pillars of fire appear and disappear seemingly at random. Fire-types can pass through the lava and fire without difficulty, but most other PokÃ©mon have to do maneuvering. Fontaine has a river cutting the battlefield in half. Two switches activate floodgates to stem the river or let it flow; if the gates are open, only Water-types can cross. Violight has just about every other tile of the battlefield containing an electrical field, divided into four segments, with a button on each segment to trigger a surge on the opposite corner for Electric-type damage. Electric-type PokÃ©mon can walk through the voltage without trouble, but other types have to follow the paths. Avia consists of a set of floating islands, with springboards that will propel any PokÃ©mon that stands on them to a fixed destination on another island. Flying-types (and PokÃ©mon with Levitate) can't use the springboards, but can freely fly between islands if they have enough Range - including to an island that cannot be stopped on by non-Flying-types. Viperia has several puddles of poisonous goo scattered around the battlefield, inflicting Poison status on any non-Poison-type PokÃ©mon that have the misfortune to stand in them. Nixtorm has two patches of snow on either side of a massive frozen lake, with a couple of ice floes in small rivers that serve as fixed lifts. Any PokÃ©mon that isn't Ice-type will slide uncontrollably across the ice and have their Range reduced by one tile while on snow. Dragnor really takes this home — several "nodes" are scattered throughout the battlefield such that it is impossible to be three tiles away from one. They randomly vary between healing, dealing Grass-type damage, Fire-type damage, dealing Water-type damage, or dealing Electric-type damage to any PokÃ©mon that comes to a stop perpendicular to a node. Dragon-type PokÃ©mon resist all four of those types. One does not simply walk into Dragnor and expect to come away with a victory.

Home Field Advantage / int_41b0198a	comment	The Dresden Files: In the novels, every human home has a threshold. Entering it without permission from the home's owner is difficult for supernatural entities. It also makes mortal wizards leave a chunk of their power at the door. The more "lived in" the home, the larger the home field advantage. However, keeping a business in the house, where people are constantly invited in, degrades the power. For this reason, while Harry's threshold was weak, he didn't keep his business there for fear of destroying what he had all together. Also some supernaturals, like The Fair Folk, can bypass the threshold so long as they abide by Sacred Hospitality and not cause the house to be worse off than when they arrived. After Turn Coat, Harry has this while on the island Demonreach, due to bonding with the resident Genius Loci.

Home Field Advantage / int_56fa0ea4	comment	Civilization: Several civs' unique units, like America's Rough Rider cavalry in VI, and Morroco's Berber Cavalry in V, get a combat bonus within friendly territory, while the French Foreign Legion in early versions of V inverts the trope by getting a bonus outside of France's borders. And the Mapuche Malon Raider plays with this trope by getting a combat bonus near their borders, allowing them to do short-ranged raids into enemy territory as well as play defense. Ethiopia in V has the Mehal Sefari infantry for its unique unit, which gets a combat bonus that increases the closer it is to the national capital. This stacks with Ethiopia's "Spirit of Adwa" ability, which gives all of its units a combat buff when fighting a civ with more cities than Ethiopia. This can make conventional fights against the Ethiopians a brutal meatgrinder In V, the Iroquois' "Great Warpath" unique ability lets them treat any unimproved forests in their territory like roads (and later railroads!), letting their units run circles around any invaders who venture into the woodlands. The Shoshone meanwhile get the "Great Expanse" unique ability that not only gives all their units a combat bonus inside their borders, but makes each newly-founded Shoshone city have over twice as much starting territory under its control as normal, to maximize that combat bonus. Vietnam in VI is led by Lady Triá»‡u, whose leader bonus that gives all Vietnamese units a speed and combat boost in jungles, woods and marshes, bonuses that are doubled in Vietnamese territory. Given that Vietnam's base civ ability encourages it to settle in such terrain, and gives its workers the ability to plant new forests as early as the Medieval Era, this means that any would-be invaders are going to end up slogging through dense, green terrain while Vietnam's units come speeding out of the jungles to deliver an overwhelming counter-attack.

It turns out the Bog Girl can be defeated by an ancient Gullah spell which lures her to dry land, far away from the swamp, allowing the afternoon sun to dry her up and finally defeat her. It works, but in the final chapter, a sudden rain reanimates the Bog Girl.

Home Field Advantage / int_66abe7c6	comment	Fate Series: The Unlimited Blade Works spell (and indeed any and all Reality Marbles) basically invokes this trope, turning the battlefield into one that's perfect for Archer or Shirou to battle in. In fact, the power of a Servant varies depending of how much it's known and/or revered in their current location. For example, Word of God states that Lancer of "Black" (Vlad the Impaler) could completely destroy Berserker (Heracles/Hercules) and Saber (gender-flipped King Arthur) from Fate/stay night, two Servants whose identities are known world-wide, because he was summoned in his home country of Romania, close to his native city to boot, and has a Skill that lets him secure a certain amount of land as his own and boost his power as long as he remains within the bounds of that land (which fittingly enough, is at the headquarters of the Yggdmillennia). This dual-layer homefield advantage is enough he's able to fight toe-to-toe with Lancer of "Red" (Karna) when normally he would be completely crushed by his Gilgamesh-leveled opponent. This is what ends up happening when he is forced to sacrifice said advantage to fight on the enemy's home turf. Caster Servants have a Skill called Territory Creation, which lets them designate an area as their "Workshop". Inside the Workshop, they are able to gather Mana from the environment (Servants normally need to get Mana from their Masters) and have some control over the surroundings. Fate/Grand Order: Quetzalcoatl becomes more powerful inside her shrine. Ereshkigal is invincible in the Underworld and the Underworld saps the strength of other gods and spirits. In the living world, she can make small areas simulate a weaker version of the Underworld's effects. Oda Nobunaga becomes more powerful when the area is on fire. Saint Martha, Captain Nemo, Archer Jeanne, and Mysterious Alter Ego Î› all become more powerful around the ocean. Due to being blessed by Poseidon, Caenis is invulnerable as long as they're around the ocean. The Oprichniki become more powerful within Moscow's borders.

For example, in older versions of the rules deities had control over who could cast Wishes on their plane(s). In the Ravenloft setting, Darklords are extremely powerful and almost undefeatable inside their own domain. In the Masque of the Red Death campaign expansion this applies to the powerful minions of the Red Death when they're in their lairs. In Eberron this applies to a number of factions, which helps contribute to the Cold-War-esque stalemate between them: Jaela Daran, The Speaker of the Flame, gains a staggering 15 levels while inside Flamekeep (she's normally level 3). The same thing applies to her Evil Counterpart. This is said to be the main reason Erandis d'Vol is still alive; while within her sanctum she can perform magical feats of such absurd power (one of the given examples being "summon Future Badass ghosts of anyone who enters the sanctum, under her control") that even if they know where it is, the more heavyweight factions of the setting don't consider it worth the trouble to attack her. The Wardens of the Wood take this to its logical extreme: their leader Oalian is a level 20 druid... but also a tree, making him incapable of leaving his home field at all. In 5th Edition, some monsters have access to "Lair Actions" while on their home turf, effectively wielding their environment against their enemies in addition to the monster's own actions for the turn. This is enough of an advantage that these monsters usually have a higher Challenge Rating when encountered in their lairs.

Waterbenders also have an advantage at their homes at the polar ice caps and the swamp where there is an abundance of ice, snow, and water to draw from. The Fire Nation formed prisons where there was limited access to water and the air was kept dry to help combat this. Waterbenders are also more powerful at night, due to the influence the moon has on the tides — and even moreso during the full moon. Zhao tried to combat this by killing the Moon Spirit's physical incarnation, essentially killing the moon. Airbenders, of course, can bend anywhere there is air, which is part of the reason that the Fire Nation started the war by committing a surprise genocide against them. Firebenders are more powerful in daylight, when they have the heat of the sun to draw upon. Firebenders also get more power in temperate regions, since they use their own heat to create their fire. Firebending political dissidents against the Fire Nation find themselves in a giant icebox.

In 2, the boss was difficult as Sonic had no rings to spare and would thus die in one hit, while the floor was flat ground which made it difficult to hit the boss from below/in front without touching its spiked claws in the way. In Mania, the boss is fought in Sonic's home area Green Hill Zone, where the location contains rings that allow Sonic and his friends to take extra hits, and the hilly elevation allows them to hit the Death Egg Robot from above where its claws cannot protect it, sharply lowering its difficulty.

Nonetheless, Konoha is a ninja village (i.e., heavily militarized) which means there are restricted zones only select groups of ninja can access on a normal basis. The Uchiha Clan compound's layout might be fairly well-known by all of the Konoha shinobi but not that of the Police Headquarters and the Naka Shrine (where they have private Clan meetings). This proves to be a problem for Kakashi when he plots to retrieve kid Naruto. He exploits the advantage by asking an Uchiha ANBU (aka Fukurou) for help. She provides little-used entrances and the needed location but further invokes the trope by saying it's not a joke "all the Uchiha look alike", so he'll get lost in a place full to the brim of them. Fortunately, Kakashi has kid!Sakura, who saw and thus can recognize the person that kidnapped Naruto and Ino, on his side. Similarly, the ANBU headquarters and most of the ANBU operatives' abilities are secret to the general population. Seeing there are at least two ANBU clan members (Fukurou and Itachi), the Uchiha Clan would be able to counteract this. Unfortunately, the two of them are Konoha-loyalists acting as moles for the village.

Knowing the RDA will be coming to bomb the Tree of Souls that would all but decimate the Na'vi and their culture, pilot Trudy points out that the human research crew and Na'vi will be severely outgunned. Jake lays out their "home-field advantage" in that when the RDA navigate through the floating Hallelujah Mountains by air to reach The Tree, they'll be flying blind and have to fire line-of-sight, as the area's flux vortex will interfere with the RDA gunships' electronic instruments. In turn, the Na'vi and their banshees, along with Trudy (who unlike most pilots has flown the mountains) and her gunship, can use their experience with the layout to get the drop on the RDA, and attacking from above will give the Na'vi arrows the proper velocity and angle to penetrate the weak points of the gunships.

Home Field Advantage / int_7e86f5f5	comment	The Chaos Gods of Warhammer Fantasy Battle, Warhammer 40,000 and all those other spin-offs, are omnipotent in their own realms. Outside of it, they're still extremely powerful but now limited and vulnerable - so much so that Slaanesh, a god who destroyed entire space sectors of an interstellar alien empire, was beaten up and kidnapped by elven gods when s/he was outside of home in Warhammer: Age of Sigmar. The Asrai/Wood Elves in the Fantasy version of the game are able to maintain their power base despite having neither the numbers or industry to compete with surrounding factions, by having a sentient forest that seeps in ancient magic and deliberately confuses any intruders with ever-shifting labyrinthine pathways; the Asrai have a pact with the spirits that dwell inside Athel Loren and have had centuries to learn the layout of their forest home. The forest itself often and fights alongside them. Thus, any army marching directly into Athel Loren during the spring and summer months is effectively committing suicide; however in winter, the forest goes dormant and the Asrai cannot rely on its help.

The Wood Elves are unusual both for gaining many benefits for fighting in a forest regardless of if they currently own it and the high quality of those boosts. They have an unusual territory mechanic that revolves around gaining control of scattered magical forests, with minimal benefits for holding regions outside their immediate vicinity, and thus can reliably expect to be fighting over forested territory much of the time.

In Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019), he takes advantage of this when he drags King Ghidorah underwater during their second fight. Godzilla can fight easily in the ocean, while Ghidorah is hampered by his massive wings. Similarly, during his first encounter at sea with Kong in Godzilla vs. Kong, Godzilla is able to nearly kill Kong (who, as an ape, is poorly suited for the water) very quickly by just dragging him underwater to drown him. Conversely in regards to Godzilla vs. Kong, when Godzilla and Kong face off a second time in Hong Kong, the big ape can rapidly swing between the skyscrapers and more easily dodge Godzilla's attacks. In the tie-in graphic novel Kingdom Kong, Camazotz takes full advantage of being a Giant Flyer whilst fighting Kong, a versatile but ultimately land-bound Titan who doesn't really have anything his size to swing off of. It's when Kong has Camazotz on the ground that the latter is in trouble. Two-way in the animated series Skull Island (2023). Kong and the Kraken are at odds for supremacy over Skull Island — to say nothing of the fact the Kraken murdered Kong's friend and an entire village of people that were under Kong's protection just because it could — but they've been at a stalemate for years. Kong has the homefield advantage on land, and the Kraken knows it and therefore never comes onto land; the Kraken has the homefield advantage in the water, and Kong knows it and therefore never wades into the island's bays. The stalemate ends with Kong entering the sea in the finale.

For instance, in the first UK season, Cheryl Hole is a professional Cheryl Cole impersonator and naturally did well when she had to lipsynch to a Cheryl Cole song. But in the following episode, she was up against Baga Chipz to an Amy Winehouse song, and since Winehouse was a huge influence on Baga's drag, Cheryl's pop-based dance moves don't save her since Baga was better able to embody the artist and sends Cheryl packing. It's an Open Secret that production will sometimes deliberately choose a song that favors the style of the queen they'd prefer to keep.

Swampy is able to defeat a nearly omnipotent enemy while in his Place of Power in the swamps, and he has a definite advantage anywhere he's in contact with "the clean Earth" (i.e., anywhere that nature is strong, especially anywhere that has a lot of plants - the evil coven that tried to fight him in a rain forest made a very bad mistake). In contrast, when Swampy fights other supernatural beings in their places of power, he risks getting his ass thoroughly kicked, as he did when fighting an aquatic vampire underwater or a werewolf powered by feminine rage in her own neighborhood. In both cases, he had to grow himself a new body and reassess his tactics.

As long as you're physically within your legion's territory, you have the right to refuse any Brain Burst challenges made of you, meaning you can recoup if you're low on burst points. Since anyone using the internet can be challenged, and not being on-line makes life anywhere from difficult to nigh unlivable, joining the legion that controls the territory you live in is almost a necessity unless you are VERY good at battling.

Magetta, one of the Universe 6 tournament fighters in Dragon Ball Super, has the ability to super heat the battlefield as a side effect of his Hulking Out. Due to Magetta drinking and being filled with molten lava, this naturally has no effect on him, but tires and overheats his opponent. Unlike the above version with Babidi, this actually does assist him.

Kong and the Kraken are at odds for supremacy over Skull Island — to say nothing of the fact the Kraken murdered Kong's friend and an entire village of people that were under Kong's protection just because it could — but they've been at a stalemate for years. Kong has the homefield advantage on land, and the Kraken knows it and therefore never comes onto land; the Kraken has the homefield advantage in the water, and Kong knows it and therefore never wades into the island's bays. The stalemate ends with Kong entering the sea in the finale.

In addition to possessing abilities of their own that affect Creatures in combat, Locations also have an Initiative label that determines who gets the first hit. Ideally, you want your deck to have Locations with abilities that synergize with your creatures and Initiative checks that your creatures can reliably win. Magmon in particular is infamous for the Lava Pond giving any of his cards a free Fire 5. Thanks to the Lava Pond already giving 5 extra damage on all fire attacks, combined with base Magmon's preexisting Fire 5, Retalitator's additonal 5 damage to all M'arrillians/minions (Or additional 5 damage to non-M'arrilians if brainwashed), or Engulfed's ability to grant all of your fire creatures Fire 5 (And Recklessness 5), fighting Magmon on his home turf can be a very brutal experience.

The mayor is giving the commencement address at Buffy's graduation, which is also where his Ascension is going to occur. In response, the Scoobies organize the entire senior class to fight off the Mayor's vampires and hold the Mayor at bay until Buffy lures him into the library, which they've already filled with explosives. "Well, gosh!" In a sixth season episode, a demon breaks into the Summers home and proceeds to trash it while attempting to kill Buffy. She slowly maneuvers it into the basement where there's less stuff to break, and also a convenient weapon (in the form of Full! Copper! Repipe!). The hell mouth gives people living above it superpowers. Demons and other mystical beings are drawn to its energy, and Word of Joss is that Warren was taking advantage of it for his robots and other super science.

The Night Feeder hunts ravenously at night where it tends to blend within the darkness where any "tresspasser" is unable to make out what the beast even looks like and goes in for the kill. When Spear and Fang are in the middle of a foggy location, it can also be seen as an accidental death sentence where the Night Feeder seems to have depth perception of where its enemies are located.

In the first-season episode "Wanted Man", Michael takes advantage of knowing Fiona's home better than an intruder, and waits for him to trip over something Michael tripped over earlier. In the first season episode "Hard Bargain", Michael takes advantage of the fact that a meeting is in his loft, and so when it goes bad, is able to get his hands on a weapon. The last two seasons invert this by having Michael attack others while they have home field advantage. He counters their advantage through planning, surveillance, and slight of hand.
