RUBY and MAVIA are the focus points within Heroes of Mavia; they ebb and flow between governance, marketplace currency, and in-game rewards. These coins both hold a very distinct place in the Mavia universe. The team has developed and shared ideas on how these tokens will interact and how the connection between them will breed stability, wealth, and increase the value of the NFTs in Mavia.

RUBY is the in-game currency that is utilized for most in-game actions. Most RUBY is minted/earned by the following actions:

  1. Winning an attack: A player that decides to battle another opponent’s base can win anywhere from 1–3 stars if the battle is won by the offensive player. The way to win is to defeat a base with a minimum of 50% damage. The more stars earned, the more RUBY earned from the attack.
  2. Successful defense: A defending base holding off attackers with 33% damage or less will earn RUBY. Upgrading your walls and towers by reinvesting the earned RUBY will increase those defenses permanently.
  3. Removing base obstacles: random obstacles will appear on the base. By checking these obstacles and clearing them, the player will earn free RUBY. This creates a daily incentive to keep the base tidy.
  4. Completing challenges: Just like Clash of Clans, Heroes of Mavia will have daily and, possibly, seasonal challenges that will earn RUBY.
  5. Partnering a base with another player: Base owners can have a helping hand in establishing, creating, fortifying, and upgrading their base. Another player will be able to manage the base while providing additional RUBY income to the base owner.
  6. Wagered matches: Each player can wager an equal amount of RUBY in a fight to the end, winner takes all.

It should be noted that most of these actions cause the minting of RUBY, which INFLATES the circulating supply. This is a negative pressure to the price of RUBY which is balanced through the usage of upgrades and buying anything in-game.

All NFT upgrades requiring RUBY will lead to stronger armies to capture more RUBY from other players. This is critical for any serious gamer, or landowner. All the uses of RUBY are:

  1. Headquarter NFT upgrades: these are permanent value increases to the Land NFT. These upgrades increase the value for the owner, or anyone that plays the game on the owner’s land. As mentioned before, upgrading the headquarters will allow players to face higher level opponents, obtain increased resource rewards from assisting structures, and have a better chance of surviving an attack.
  2. Hero NFTs upgrades: these are permanent increases to the offense/defense, and speed of your Hero. Each Hero will have different strengths and weaknesses that will become more well-rounded as their experience increases.
  3. Statue NFT upgrades: Statues in Heroes of Mavia work like boosts in Clash of Clans. Whether it grants increased building completion time, further attack/defense boosts, or increased RUBY rewards is anyone’s guess.
  4. Purchasing Gold and Oil: These resources are necessities to build assisting structures on the bases. Assisting structures will spawn resources, troops, and additional benefits for the base.
  5. Process speed-ups: RUBY will speed up any required building or upgrade time. RUBY will also speed up troop training and other timed processes in the game.
  6. Skins and Decorations: It still remains to be seen whether skins will add any in-game benefit, but these add-ons will surely give value to a player’s Hero and Base since it costs RUBY.

Nearly all of these actions BURN RUBY, which takes them out of circulation permanently. This adds positive pressure to the price of RUBY, increasing the value of it.

Another important aspect is the withdrawal tax surrounding RUBY which may deter a player from withdrawing RUBY into a player’s wallet. This tax is going to be around 15%, and all RUBY from this will be burned. However, the team incentivizes the buying of RUBY by adding a 10% bonus for every RUBY deposited into the Mavia game.

The team behind Heroes of Mavia have expressed an important aspect of RUBY: they wish to see the value of RUBY remain relatively stable, preferably around $1. The team also mentioned that free market economics would reign, and that they would not interfere if the market dictates volatility for the coin. This strategy is to combat a systemic problem in crypto play-to-earn games. The problem is that in-game currencies usually become overinflated, or are sold immediately, which tanks the price and thereby devalues the game. The team believes that by incorporating several of such mechanisms, they will keep RUBY stable and avoid the pitfalls of their predecessors.

Now for the other half of Mavia tokenomics:

MAVIA is the currency
necessary to purchase anything on the MAVIA marketplace. MAVIA can be earned in several ways, such as:

  1. Buying/Selling NFTs: MAVIA can be earned by the successful sale of Heroes, Land, Skins or Statues. The price of these NFTs will be dictated by their owners and the marketplace.
  2. Renting bases: An owner may earn MAVIA by renting out their base for any amount of time. An owner will be able to mint a synthetic base for a player to rent, essentially eliminating the risk of losing the original Base NFT.
  3. Purchasing from a market: MAVIA will be released on a DEX or CEX. More updates on which markets will be optimal to buy MAVIA still to come.

Owning MAVIA has multiple benefits. The primary benefit of owning MAVIA is their staking rewards which have bonus incentives. Token owners can stake their MAVIA in order to earn additional MAVIA, earning free NFTs as a bonus, which highly incentivizes the long-term holding of MAVIA.

The governance of MAVIA will be determined by token holders. Although the team will always provide their opinion, they envision a player-led game. The community provides the best feedback by making known the needs for further improvements within the tokenomics, gameplay, or UI experience.

The team would prefer players to sell MAVIA for profits instead of RUBY.

This supports the market by creating less selling pressure for the in-game token. The preferred way to transfer the value of RUBY into MAVIA is by upgrading NFTs with RUBY, and then selling them for MAVIA.

The tokenomics between MAVIA and RUBY can be seen here:

Around 40% of MAVIA’s total supply has already been allocated to venture capitalists, gaming guilds, and advisors. The public token launch of MAVIA is expected to be within Q1 of 2022. Land, Hero, and Statue NFTs will be released on OpenSea after the release of MAVIA. Staking for MAVIA and additional rewards will follow shortly thereafter.

RUBY will be launched in Q4 of 2022 when the expected v1.0 of the game will be released. This will be a joyous occasion that will be celebrated with many different NFT releases, battles, and wagers. All of this information begs the question…

When the call of battle arises, will you be amongst the Mavians… or their predecessors?
