# AutoArena

> AutoArena is a free tactical auto battler that runs in your web browser — nothing to download, no sign-up beyond a name. Draft a hero and 4 minis, deploy them on a 7×8 board with an elixir budget, star up duplicates, and watch a deterministic battle decide each round of a best-of-5 ranked match.

AutoArena is at https://autoarena.gg. It is free, has no advertisements, sells nothing for money, and needs no download or install: it runs in any modern browser on phones and computers. A match is best of 5 and takes about three minutes. There are 8 minis (Barbarian, Archer, Knight, Valkyrie, Battering Ram, Assassin, Wizard, Healer) and 3 heroes (Barbarian King, Archer Queen, Guardian). Ranked play has 8 leagues and monthly seasons.
