Players adopt a playing style which basically depends on whether or not they want to spend real money and on how much time they are prepared to dedicate to the game. As with most games in this genre the paying players will be able to progress much faster than a free player but it is still possible for a free player to collect most of the heroes and catch paying customers who are not dedicated enough to use up all the daily energy and villain seige. The three main playing styles are:
Free Player with Active Play
Players play the game for free and will be able to pick up most of the heroes naturally without spending any money. This will however involve attempting to level up all the heroes by fighting through the hardest levels manually in both story and Elite quests.
Free Player without Active Play
In this playing style players play the game for free and 'auto' fight through much of the stages grinding money and obtaining stronger gear so they have the necessary requirements to push the story line forward.
Paying Player
The paying player will be able to advance much quicker than the free players as they do not have to wait a period of time before they have a star hero team in place as they can purchase it straight away with real money. There are also VIP bonuses which are game changers for players that invest heavily in the game.
