City Crawl

City Crawl is a campaign mode in Dota Underlords where players complete challenges to earn Battle Pass XP and cosmetic items. City Crawl takes place in White Spire, divided into four districts, Little Revtel, New Tenebrous, Port Slipshade and The Warrens.

Challenges

Each quarter of the city contains 36 challenges: 13 Objectives, 19 Street Fights and 4 Puzzles. Cleared challenges are removed, opening up paths to new challenges. Some challenges can be accessed for free while others can be unlocked by purchasing the Battle Pass.

Objectives

Objectives are similar to daily challenges, except they are assigned to specific Underlords and can only be completed when using that Underlord. All the objectives progress even when Underlords haven't been picked yet. When the match is over, only the objectives for the Underlord you chose will progress. Objectives can be completed by playing against Hardcore (XP) bots.

Street Fights

Street Fights are Knockout-style matches against either fixed enemies or a bot with a restricted pool of Heroes.

Street Fight rules

• Two lives.
• No timer.
• Player Level (for both the player and the enemy):
  • Round 1: Level 6.
  • Round 2: Level 8.
  • Round 3: Level 10.
• Base gold (varies for every Street Fight):
  • Round 1: 15, 20 or 25.
  • Round 2: 25, 30 or 40.
  • Round 3: 35, 40, 50 or 60.
• Free reroll when losing a round.

Street Fight items

Street Fight items are droppable items that can only be used in Street Fights. There are 14 random Street Fight items for each Underlord: 12 in City Crawl and 2 on the Battle Pass. All the items have the same drop chance and one Underlord will not have duplicated items.

Available drops per Underlord:

Puzzles

Puzzles are single round matches where players need to win an scenario using only the options they are given. These options include a limited number of available heroes, available cells, available items and a maximum net worth (cost of units placed on their board plus tiers of equipped items). Player's units placed by default cannot be benched or sold, only moved, and do not count toward any limit. Puzzles use Standard mode rules regarding alliances and items stats.

Once a player wins a puzzle, their net worth, unit count and fight duration for that puzzle are recorded and can be used to compare to friends or to a global distribution. Unlike Objectives and Street Fights, Puzzles can be replayed at any time, giving the player an opportunity to try for a new record.

Intro challenges

Before exploring City Crawl on their own, players need to play two tutorial challenges: Welcome to White Spire, a Street Fight against neutrals, and a puzzle The First Of Many Trials, detailed below.

The First Of Many Trials

City Key

City Keys allow players to immediately complete a challenge. Ten City Keys are rewarded from the Battle Pass and two are received when starting a Prestige.

Prestige

List of improved Street Fight items: City Crawl/Prestige items.

Once a player takes over all the city, they are offered the option of Prestiging. Doing so will reset the campaign, removing all the Street Fight items collected, while keeping all the other rewards. All the rewards for the challenges will be replaced by Battle Pass XP.

With every Prestige, the Street Fights become tougher, starting at "Your units will do 25% less damage", increasing by 10% for every Prestige, for a maximum of 65% less damage dealt by your units on the fifth Prestige. The Street Fights items become stronger and have slightly different names. Prestige can be activated five times.
