Development System Profile
Player Level Upgrade Mechanics
Level Upgrade
Honey Lemon is the key item for upgrading your players. It grants EXP, allowing players to level up and grow over time.
Player Breakthrough
Once a player reaches their current level cap, they cannot progress further. To break through this limit, you'll need to use Promotion Cards. This will unlock a higher level cap and help your player reach new heights.
Bond System
Bond Team
Certain players share a unique bond. Forming a complete bond lineup will activate it, granting all members additional stat bonuses.
Activate Conditions
Collect the required player combinations and raise their talent development level to unlock even greater attribute bonuses.
Awakening System
Character Awakening
Each Awakening Node enhances specific player attributes—such as Blocks, Rebounds, and more. Unlocking certain nodes will also unlock the player's exclusive skills.
After obtaining a player, you can continue to draw Awakening Cards from the player pool to awaken them further.
You can also dismantle unwanted Awakening Cards from your inventory to obtain Awakening Shards. These shards can then be exchanged for player awakenings in the Awakening Shop.
Tips：
Resources are limited, so focus on developing your main players first. This ensures you use resources efficiently and avoid unnecessary waste.
Player Breakthrough Mechanics
Skill Talents
Each breakthrough unlocks new skill talents for the player. By using Player Training Cards and Training Manuals, you can unlock skill nodes and attribute bonuses within the talent tree. This enhances their performance in real matches.
If needed, you can use a Talent Reset Card to reset a player's talents. When you do, all used Player Training Cards and Training Manuals will be refunded. The refund rate for the 1st and 2nd resets is 100%; for subsequent resets, the refund rate will gradually decrease.
Item Acquisition
Honey Lemon and Promotion Cards can be obtained from the Daily Shop, Daily Active Rewards, and Limited-Time Events.
Player Training Cards can be purchased in the Talent Shop.
Training Manuals are available for purchase in the Daily Shop.
Ability & Trait

Different player roles are suited to different ability types. Matching abilities to a player's role allows them to perform at their maximum potential. For example, Tetsuya Kuroko is a support-oriented playmaker—it's recommended to prioritize abilities that enhance Ball Handling and Defense to further strengthen his court control and support capabilities.
Trait
Trait Bonuses
Trait function like passive skills, improving a player’s actual in-game performance, such as shooting accuracy, rebounding, and blocking. Once equipped, the player gains the corresponding stat enhancements.
Trait Selection
Choose traits based on the player's role and playstyle. For example, shooting players should prioritize traits that boost Mid-Range or Three-Point accuracy, while defensive players are recommended to equip traits that enhance Steal or Block.
Tips
The Ability system unlocks when your player reaches Level 13 and can be accessed from the first slot in the function bar at the bottom of the main interface.
Upon unlocking, the system grants a Level 1 Ability by default. Traits can be obtained through Ability draws or purchased directly from the Shop. Both Ability and Trait can be upgraded using dedicated Ability Materials and Trait Materials.
If needed, you can reset either Ability or Trait. Duplicate Traits can also be dismantled for other uses.
