Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })RWBY: Amity Arena is a Player Versus Player mobile phone-based video game released in 2018 by NHN Entertainment. It is based off of the popular web-aired animated series RWBY by Rooster Teeth and Monty Oum.It starts prior to the events of Volume 3, you're confronted by Ruby Rose and her half-sister Yang Xiao Long over the brand-new game "Amity Arena", using people participating in the Vytal Tournament. Thanks to Ruby and Yang's help, you're given the basics over how this new Tower Defense game works and you set off to climb the ranks in your own way.The goal of the game is to destroy the enemy structures while protecting your own (2 turrets protecting one big tower, the destruction of the latter being an Instant-Win Condition). Each player has a Mana Meter ("Aura") progressively filling as the match goes on, and a deck of 8 cards prepared before the match and appearing in a random loop 4 cards at a time. Each card costs a set amount of Aura, with usually the most powerful ones being the most expensive to play. After 3 minutes, the player with the most remaining buildings wins; if the players still have the same number of structures, the match goes into Sudden Death for 1 or 3 more minutes depending on the Arena.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The game also features a Hack and Slash single-player side mode added post-launch in March 2019 in which the player directly incarnates Ruby or Weissnote more playable characters were planned to defend a tower from several waves of Grimm and members of the White Fang.As an Allegedly Free Game, Amity Arena contains its fair share of Microtransactions, Loot Boxes, and other Revenue-Enhancing Devices, though the ranking system (usually) makes Bribing Your Way to Victory useless (outside of having your favorite characters quicker than the rest).On December 27th, 2020, the servers were announced to be shutting down on January 28th, 2021. | |

Canon Foreigner | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_113480b7 | comment |
Canon Foreigner: Although several characters take liberties regarding their design or abilities, the White Fang Watchtower is so far the only unit with no real equivalent in the show. Arena 9 (the Frozen Lands) though clearly inspired by Atlas and reminiscent of the "Weiss Character Short" and beginning of Volume 6 is a completely original location located in some ruins at the top of a mountain. In a cross with Early-Bird Cameo, Carmine Esclados was introduced even if she's both not on the show, given she is in the novel RWBY: After the Fall, and a few days before the book actually came out (though there was an excerpt already available). | |

Friendly Sniper: Sniper Ruby and May Zedong both fit this trope quite well. Sniper Ruby's special skill allows her to shoot from a longer range and kill a large swath of enemies. May, however, can stand at a position far away enough to simply shoot at a target without being shot back. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: Reading the flavor text on the cards rapidly makes it clear that the game is (supposedly) made by an Atlas-based company. This means that while the information presented is generally factually accurate, it's slanted toward an Atlesian viewpoint and often has some passive anti-faunus racism. | |

The Juggernaut | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_1eed8e76 | comment |
The Juggernaut: Some units (the Ursa Major, Beowolves, Atlesian Paladin, and Queen Lancer) will stop for nothing and go straight for the enemy turrets (safe for elemental attacks like electricity or ice). The White Fang Dropship technically applies too, but is not a threat by itself. All of them can be distracted by decoy turrets like the one created by Glynda though. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The units' Flavor Texts reference both the main series and RWBY Chibi: Both the Griffon Grimm and Roman Torchwick's biographies mention Torchwick's infamous Sedgwick Speech. Zwei's card mentions his resemblance to Wonder Zwei, the Huntsman's faithful sidekick. Huntsman and Wonder Zwei were Jaune and Zwei's heroic identities in Chibi. In Cinder's card, the biography has no idea what Cinder's last name is and, under her quote, lists her as "Cinder Stalls". This references the infamous fan comic "Cinder Who?" and the Chibi short that was inspired by it. Sun's quote references his role in Chibi as a Junior Detective. As a sort of Ascended Meme, Shadow Blake's character hint possibly references the infamous "Over and over again!" Hazel quote from Volume 5. Petra Gigas' quote in its Card Info is from Floyd, the Jerkass Geist from RWBY Chibi annoying the two Beowolves Mike and Marty who are themselves referenced in the Beowolf Pack and Alpha Beowolf's quote. The Cookie currencies are based on the Running Gag that it is Ruby's Trademark Favorite Food especially in Chibi, though it was revealed later that it was her Missing Mom's favorite recipe. | |

Easter Egg | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: Tapping the unit's picture on a card 21 times plays back the little animation the appears when you unlock the unit for the first time. This even works for characters like Jaune who were unlocked from the start and thus never had their intro ever played in the first place. As of the April 2019 update, this number was reduced to six, making it even easier to see. Another one emerged with the reopening of the Plaza. If you're walking around as Neptune, he won't go in the water, instead teleporting out with a speech prompt that says "I can guard this... sector!". | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Anything that costs 5+ Aura. As Aura builds up slowly over time and only speeds up during the final minute, it's easier to launch 2-3 Aura-charged characters than wait for a 5, 6, or 7 Aura-charged characters to launch. The Superior Crate. It gives you hundreds of cards, including a whole lot of Rares and over a dozen Epics along with over 1,000 Lien. However, at its highest, the box costs 3600 Premium Dust; (which is equal to about $30 real world money) and getting Epic/Legendary duplicates to level up your units is prohibitively expensive. Buying Legendaries from the store. As they cost 40,000 Lien to buy just one, it's ridiculous to pay real money or SPD to get that one. | |

Glass Cannon | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: Neo hits really hard, especially during her counterattack, but actually has very few HP once her super-armor is broken. Zwei equally hits hard upon landing, but he'll easily fall apart after a few attacks. Flynt's initial trumpet attack is unbreakable and devastating for large groups of weaker units. After that however, his regular "toots!" are extremely weak and Flynt himself has very little HP, rendering him almost useless past his placement. | |

Fictional Social Network: The game uses the design and aesthetic of the Scrolls which are the In-Universe cell phones. The game itself pretends to be for Scroll devices and the booting screen makes it look like you actually are holding one. Patch 1.5 updates it to show the Scroll glitching out with Cinder's Queen piece motif. | |

Units Not to Scale | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_3d4f0586 | comment |
Units Not to Scale: Though there is some sort of scale between small and bigger units, it is definitely not show accurate and in fact more in line with the Super-Deformed proportions shown in RWBY Chibi. Some glaring examples are the Petra Gigas, Spider Droid and King Tajitu who are here barely taller than a regular human while still looking smaller than the (purposely) thick Ursa Major. On the other hand, Zwei the Corgi appears to be the size of a Saint Bernard. And then you have the Atlesian Airship which here is, like what, 20 feet long? Vehicles in general have a Clown Car feeling when you see what they drop. | |

CCG Importance Dissonance | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_4599be49 | comment |
CCG Importance Dissonance: For Competitive Balance's sake, the power levels of many characters are off compared to the source material: Stronger than canon: Zwei is a destructive powerhouse capable of annihilating tons of units in one blow, a nice step up for a Plucky Comic Relief dog. Neopolitan and Roman are extremely powerful as well, and though Neo's true power is still ambiguous in the show, Torchwick's Cane Fu is definitely way stronger than it should, while the White Fang Lieutenant is a gigantic beat-stick of a unit that, while admittedly not very useful due to his slow speed and high cost, still manages to make mincemeat out of anything else in melee. Finally, most Mooks became way more dangerous here especially thanks to the power of teamwork (where in RWBY Conservation of Ninjutsu was in full effect). Weaker than canon: Both Blake cards are surprisingly weak in this game compared to the other main characters as they mainly serve to distract units and/or sneak out in the enemy base. Cinder, though powerful, is similarly very frail despite her role as The Dragon and dies in a few hits. The rarity of cards is also in question.note They are more defined by the efficiency and usefulness of the cards than their canon importance Poor Jaune is the only main character in the Normal tier, while secondary character Neptune is unexpectedly in the Epic tier. Boundless Jaune, however, is an Epic card. | |

Everything's Better with Rainbows | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_49bbfaee | comment |
As in the original show, feline Faunus Neon Katt and her rainbow trail alludes to the famous Internet icon Nyan Cat. In this game specifically, the rainbow glow she emits while she's invincible might be inspired by the Invincibility Power-Up from Super Mario Bros. as it has a similar visual effect and Neon never does it in the show (nor did she had the power to be invincible in the first place). | |

| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_4a0ec526 | comment |
Harmless Freezing: Weiss freezes the enemy units in place for a few seconds, but then they will continue their way as if nothing happened (safe that they weren't destroyed during that time). It is worth nothing that the attack itself does damage, enough to wipe out low HP units like for example a Baby Death Stalker Swarm. | |

With a bit of luck (Rare Random Drop, easy missions, ...) she can potentially be turned into a Disc-One Nuke since Epic cards are still scarce at early levels and it's statistically more probable to get a lot of Ice Weiss at low levels than the 1/22 chance you get in Arena 8 or higher. | |

Since many Mooks are in the 2-3 range, it was easy to wait for a player to make a small miscalculation, then launch a swarm of enemies too numerous for characters like Ice Weiss or Scythe Ruby to take out with their Area of Effect attacks effectively. This was eventually counterbalanced with the addition of more low aura AOE characters namely Cinder, Mercury and especially Zwei, the later being an extremely fast and easy to use Zerg Rush killer. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early Installment Weirdness: The game has only been out for several months, but Woah, Nelly, do they have some delicious differences since release: Initially, players could get Lien through all chests, which was meant to make up for the meager Lien you get for winning. The Lien was later removed from chests up to Gold and the Lien was multiplied sevenfold. Since most of the cards were unlocked at the very first stage, it wasn't uncommon for players to just keep getting Commons like the White Fang and Grimm. Vomit Boy Jaune was originally just called "Jaune". In the foreign translations, he still is. Missions were originally heavily varied and, at times, veered into the Nintendo Hard category, such as requesting players to destroy five towers for a prize. | |

Pint-Sized Powerhouse | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_53a7089a | comment |
When she was added to the game, some players used Neon (who is fast, invincible, and can't be aggroed) to literally push slower and larger units like the Ursa Major and make them arrive to the enemy base way sooner that they were supposed to. In April 2018 this strategy was patched out.note Her "weight" value was changed from "heavy" to "light", preventing her to push large Mighty Glaciers as she used to. | |

The Dragon | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_53f5119f | comment |
Weaker than canon: Both Blake cards are surprisingly weak in this game compared to the other main characters as they mainly serve to distract units and/or sneak out in the enemy base. Cinder, though powerful, is similarly very frail despite her role as The Dragon and dies in a few hits. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: In-universe; While character descriptions for cards are generally PC, the Atlesian developers show bias against the Faunus; Neon Katt's bio has the developers upset that she was representing Atlas, Marrow's says he's only better than the other "riff-raff" because he follows orders, while Ironwood's dismisses the Faunus-ruled Menagerie as an actual kingdom. | |

Late-Arrival Spoiler | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_5f3bb274 | comment |
Late-Arrival Spoiler: At launch, the game tried to keep spoilers to a minimum, but still refers multiple times to Blake as a Faunus, strongly hints that Penny is an android, and straight-up reveals Qrow's ability to shapeshift. Pomegrenade's description even mentions that Pyrrha is dead. On minor notes, it also shows multiple characters and special outfits that wouldn't appear until several volumes, including Cinder who spent all Volume 1 hidden in shadows. After the Fall of Beacon update they loosened these restrictions, with cards making plain references to the events of the show. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: Several character Semblances had to be reworked for this video game setting and don't quite function like their original counterpart: Emerald, who is a Master of Illusion in the show with limitless potential, is reduced to create copies of nearby allies. Her illusions are supposed to be completely fake and harmless, but here can actually deal damages in a Your Mind Makes It Real kind of way. (Why it also works on machines and why the copies remain after Emerald is killed should not be questioned.) Neon was shown to have Super Speed in the series, but here have an Invulnerable Attack instead. At the same time, her actual semblance has never been confirmed so it could be a case of Adaptation Expansion. Although Cinder demonstrated her talent in archery and pyrotechnic, the Rain of Explosive Arrows she uses here is completely original as she was never seen creating straight-up explosions. Velvet's bio point-blank states that she can't copy Semblances in-universe, but here for the sake of game balance she can (to explain why she can use abilities such as Weiss's freezing). | |

Not So Invincible After All: Neon actually as a very narrow window where she is not yet invincible: the few frames after she is dropped and before shes touches the ground. In practice however it is not really an exploitable flaw, destroying her with an AOE attack in this time frame being almost impossible to predict; this happening is usually a combination of good luck and bad timing. | |

Crutch Character | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_7deb3fb1 | comment |
Crutch Character: In early game, Ice Weiss is the only Epic card available to all the players as she is given during the Forced Tutorial and you can be sure that everyone uses her as she is at that time way more powerful than all the others. She is still useful at later levels but the augmenting number of available cards and strategies make her less OP. With a bit of luck (Rare Random Drop, easy missions, ...) she can potentially be turned into a Disc-One Nuke since Epic cards are still scarce at early levels and it's statistically more probable to get a lot of Ice Weiss at low levels than the 1/22 chance you get in Arena 8 or higher. | |

| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_8cb259f4 | comment |
Overshadowed by Awesome: Most people, even diehard fans, would have a hard time telling who Nolan Porfirio from Team BRNZ is, as he is a very minor character with little to no relevance to the plot and his inclusion comes out as unexpected. But as the game points out "you won't forget after getting stunned by his weapon". His teammate May is also included in the game, but her design and fighting style were already more recognizable for people to remember her. | |

Revisiting the Roots | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_8eb3d48f | comment |
Revisiting the Roots: Despite releasing around the same time as Volume 6, almost all the elements from this game were from the first three seasons before the short Time Skip. The only elements taken from the "Maya Engine era" are 3 locations and the Lancer and Beringel Grimm (most of them only available late game), Boundless Jaune, Ilia, and some outfits for Team RWBY. It only started to change with Volume 7's release\the game's first anniversary, as more and more characters and costumes from Volume 4 on were introduced. | |

The Voiceless: When the game began, many characters had no voice clips when they are deployed. As of the June 2019 update, the only people who still don't have voice clips are Neo (as she's mute), Emerald, Roy Stallion, and Qrow (at most, he caws when turning into a crow). | |

Cane Fu: Torchwick's cane has a concealed grappling-hook hidden in it. Also it might seem weird at first that he doesn't use its hidden cannon as well, but it's not when you realize that it is surprisingly the most powerful melee weapon in the game, only rivaled by his partner in crime Neo's parasol. | |

Emerald, who is a Master of Illusion in the show with limitless potential, is reduced to create copies of nearby allies. Her illusions are supposed to be completely fake and harmless, but here can actually deal damages in a Your Mind Makes It Real kind of way. (Why it also works on machines and why the copies remain after Emerald is killed should not be questioned.) | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: The Queen Lancer. Costing 8 Aura, it's the one of the costliest units to launch, meaning if you don't have it early on, it's going to just sit on your deck for quite awhile. However, it is The Juggernaut of the Epic cards, homing in on structures and can spawn other Lancers to assist or destroy defender units, meaning that if one is unprepared, they could effectively curb stomp you. Velvet. She copies weapons and Semblances used by named characters (thus mooks and monsters are unaffected by her), she costs an Aura more to launch her after that character, but with the right timing, she can throw people for a loop. | |

Draw Aggro | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_9f3857d5 | comment |
Draw Aggro: Neon Katt as well as Shadow Blake's Ninja Logs attract most of the enemy units who then bear a big (!) icon over their head, clearing the path for more fragile cards. The Juggernaut units like the Ursa Major are a notable exception. Building units like the White Fang Watchtower or Glynda's turrets distract enemies from the actual structures, this time even drawing units that are specifically design to directly target them. | |

Emergent Gameplay | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_a6848924 | comment |
Emergent Gameplay: The characters have physicality (as in they're not intangible and have to get around each other's hitboxes) which can sometimes create situations probably not intended by the developers: When she was added to the game, some players used Neon (who is fast, invincible, and can't be aggroed) to literally push slower and larger units like the Ursa Major and make them arrive to the enemy base way sooner that they were supposed to. In April 2018 this strategy was patched out.note Her "weight" value was changed from "heavy" to "light", preventing her to push large Mighty Glaciers as she used to. Though short-lived, the Beowolf Pack could be used similarly as a defense mechanism, pushing lighter units away from their turrets like a living wall. This was patched out at the same time as Neon's nerf. When placed right before a turret, the AK-130s are so thick that they can be used as a figurative and literal Stone Wall to the Beowolf Alpha who will desperately try to get close enough and find a footing for its jump while being helplessly molested by the robots. | |

Moveset Clone | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_b5439b51 | comment |
Moveset Clone: Several cards are very similar but with slight Competitive Balance adjustments: The AK-200 have one less unit that the White Fang Gunners, but they are more resistant. Crow is a costlier Scythe Ruby with less DPS, but with insane mobility options. Both the Lancers and Death Stalkers have "Swarm" variants which simply have more Grimm units for a bigger price. The Beowolf also has a "Pack" variant, but the pups are less powerful and also lack its signature power jump. The White Fang Thugs are reused in both the White Fang Squad (which also reuse White Fang Gunners) and the aftermath of the White Fang Dropship. Both cost more but are used for different type of approach and/or defense. Similarly to the above, the Atlesian Ship and the Lancer Queen continuously spawns AK-130s and Lancers. Again in the same vein, the White Fang Watchtower is basically a grounded White Fang Gunners card with super-armor, releasing them after it's destroyed. The White Fang Lieutenant is modeled after Yatsuhashi, but lacks his Shockwave Stomp in favor of a (slower) double attack. | |

Plucky Comic Relief | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_bcbf7aef | comment |
Stronger than canon: Zwei is a destructive powerhouse capable of annihilating tons of units in one blow, a nice step up for a Plucky Comic Relief dog. Neopolitan and Roman are extremely powerful as well, and though Neo's true power is still ambiguous in the show, Torchwick's Cane Fu is definitely way stronger than it should, while the White Fang Lieutenant is a gigantic beat-stick of a unit that, while admittedly not very useful due to his slow speed and high cost, still manages to make mincemeat out of anything else in melee. Finally, most Mooks became way more dangerous here especially thanks to the power of teamwork (where in RWBY Conservation of Ninjutsu was in full effect). | |

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Although the dev team promised to eventually hopefully include every single character from the original show, some important ones are still currently missing. This is especially true for some Teams that lack half of their members or more, like Scarlet and Sage from Team SSSN. But the developers confirmed that they prioritize Competitive Balance over popular fan requests as for who comes to the game first. With the game's shutdown, this trope is locked in. | |

Shout-Out | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Ribbon Blake's character hint refers to her as a "Teenage Faunus Ninja Catgirl".note It is also the title of a RWBY Chibi episode. The poster for the Mercury Black update sneakily added the silhouette of another famous Mercury. As in the original show, feline Faunus Neon Katt and her rainbow trail alludes to the famous Internet icon Nyan Cat. In this game specifically, the rainbow glow she emits while she's invincible might be inspired by the Invincibility Power-Up from Super Mario Bros. as it has a similar visual effect and Neon never does it in the show (nor did she had the power to be invincible in the first place). The Lancer Queen announcement was stylized like Galaga with Retraux sprites inspired by the game's Insectoid Aliens. | |

Death of a Thousand Cuts | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_cadf2d2a | comment |
Death of a Thousand Cuts: Flynt and Penny have weak attacks, but their skills turn an entire portion of the arena into a slow death trap. Sending a lot of low-cost units at the same time usually have this affect (see Zerg Rush below). If not taken care of or ignored because of her weak power, May can be this as she slowly but safely take your buildings down from afar. It's in general the case for any unit that wasn't much a problem at low level but has progressively gained so much HP that they can tank turrets' fire pretty effectively (yes, even Shadow Blake and especially Jaune). | |

Weird Currency | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_d8fad039 | comment |
The Cookie currencies are based on the Running Gag that it is Ruby's Trademark Favorite Food especially in Chibi, though it was revealed later that it was her Missing Mom's favorite recipe. | |

Action Bomb | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_dae3999d | comment |
Action Bomb: The Patch 1.5 Petra Gigas became this trope as players can now try to protect the Grimm and move him towards a turret/tower and let him explode. | |

Enemy Summoner | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_dee6ef31 | comment |
The Lancer Queen is also this trope with Lancers, but also doubles as an Enemy Summoner (as she fights on her own) and triples as an Asteroids Monster (as she spawns 3 more Lancers after being defeated). It could even potentially be a case of Weaponized Offspring but Grimm biology comprehension is shaky at best (though her Flavor Text indicates that she is the "literal mother of all Lancers"). | |

Nerf: As in any Competitive Balance, changes like that are bound to happen to many characters. Cinder probably received one of the harshest, seeing her cost increased by one (atop of several other nerfs). | |

Sniper Rifle: May is the only unit in the game capable of directly attacking the turrets while being out of range from their counterattack, necessitating the opponent to send more units just to deal with her. | |

Me's a Crowd | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_eb5cbe42 | comment |
Me's a Crowd: Team RWBY has multiple selves. Thus it is quite possible to launch two different versions of the same heroine. If a unit manages to survive long enough for a full deck rotation, it is possible to resend them and have two of it on the battlefield, but due to the nature of the game it rarely happens. Sun's semblance allows him to send four short-lived clones of himself to fight. Emerald can create phantom copies of all nearby allies. Combine her with swarm units like the Lancers and Death Stalkers for an even bigger Zerg Rush! When placed on the arena, Flynt Coal uses his Killer Quartet to summon 3 copies of himself and blast Gale-Force Sound. Unlike the show, they are not color-coded and all have the original's appearance. | |

Color-Coded Item Tiers: The cards' rarity is indicated by their color: grey for Normal, orange for Rare, purple for Epic, blue for Legendary. Their rarity does not necessarily correlate with their actual power and/or utility, but it often does. | |

In a cross with Early-Bird Cameo, Carmine Esclados was introduced even if she's both not on the show, given she is in the novel RWBY: After the Fall, and a few days before the book actually came out (though there was an excerpt already available). | |

Ninja Log | |
| RWBY: Amity Arena (Video Game) / int_f285c53f | comment |
Neon Katt as well as Shadow Blake's Ninja Logs attract most of the enemy units who then bear a big (!) icon over their head, clearing the path for more fragile cards. The Juggernaut units like the Ursa Major are a notable exception. | |
