Status Effect
A Status Effect is a positive or negative effect that can be applied to a Striker or the Core.
Hit
A Hit refers to anything that causes an effect to occur on an enemy striker or the Core. There are two types of Hits:
- Normal hits knockback the Core while dealing Damage and Knockback to enemy Strikers. Every Striker has at least one ability that deals Normal hits.
- Light hits knockback the Core while damaging enemy Strikers and briefly reducing their Speed
by 50% for 0.25s, but do not apply any knockback to Strikers unless they are Staggered by the hit or already Staggered.

Elusive
An Elusive striker becomes untargetable and immune to effects and abilities, though keeping any buffs or debuffs already applied to them. While Elusive, Strikers can pass through Creations and specific map hazards.
Strikers with Elusive are:
Strikers can also become Elusive using Evade and/or Energy Burst.
Immune
An Immune striker become untargetable and immune to effects except for buffs.
All strikers are briefly immune after they respawn from being knocked out.
Knocked
A Knocked striker or Core is knockbacked in a direction. Strikers are stunned for the duration of the knockback.
All strikers have at least one ability that applies a knockback.
Knocked Out
A Knocked Out striker is removed from play for a temporary duration of 13 seconds until they respawn afterwards.
Staggered
A Staggered Striker temporarily takes massively increased knockback, which occurs once their Stagger bar empties completely after taking enough damage.
- Staggered targets take 75% reduced damage.
- Staggered targets take 254.5% increased knockback.
Strikers are no longer Staggered once they recover 50% of their Stagger bar.
Stunned
A Stunned striker or Core is unable to act until the stun ends.
While all knockbacks apply a brief stun to affected strikers while they are traveling, abilities that apply Stunned will leave affected strikers unable to act even after the initial knockback. The Core is prevented from being moved when affected by Stunned, leaving it in a similar state to Elusive.
Strikers with Stuns are:
