Angel Battles Historic Wrapper
Angel Battles Historical NFTsAngel Battles is a limited-supply, pre-ERC721 game with the first contract deployed on the Ethereum mainnet in block 4949586 (Jan-22-2018 01:42:39 AM +UTC). The game was one of the most complex and functional games of its time, spanning 3 NFT data contracts and dozens of gameplay contracts. Features included: Three Token Types – Angel Cards were the base card and had one of 6 aura colors. Angels were sold and earned experience by winning arena battles. Pet Cards w...
Angel Battles Guide
Welcome to Angel Battles, one of the oldest NFT projects. We launched in Jan 2018 and became one of the top 5 games on Ethereum, but rising gas fees made mainnet too expensive. We then rebuilt the entire game for a low gas fee environment that allows much richer gameplay. In Angel Battles, 100% of the money that comes in to the game through purchase of new packs goes to the Gitcoin Matching Fund to fund public goods. Having the game 100% on chain and the developers as volunteers means that we...

We are excited to announce that we have chosen to deploy Angel Battles 2 on the Polygon network. We watched several scaling solutions develop over the last few years and carefully considered where the best place to deploy Angel Battles 2 would be. It was a difficult decision where it seemed like new front runners were constantly emerging. We considered solutions under the following criteria.
Security – While we don’t need the full security of Ethereum, a more secure scaling solution is better.
Availability – Zk Rollups are promising, especially after proto-danksharding is implemented, but we need something available today.
Full EVM Compatibility – Angel Battles 2 is a complex game – we need something more than for instance a rollup which only allows NFT trading. We need a chain that allows our users to permissionlessly deploy battle mountains.
Infrastructure – While talking to our players and the larger Ethereum community, users constantly prioritized access to key infrastructure like Uniswap and Opensea. We also wanted a place where Tally.xyz was deployed for managing DAO proposals.
Ramps – We wanted a place where it was easy for a large amount of the world’s population to purchase the platform’s native token for gas. We also wanted a place that had wide bridge support from other networks.
Stable Native Token – We prefer a place where the native (gas) token is stable so card prices won’t fluctuate.
Low Gas Fees – Lower gas fees will enable more players to play more frequently with the convenience of not worrying about scheduling their playing.
Long Term Stability – We want a scaling solution that will be around for decades.
Community Ethos – We wanted a place aligned with the beliefs of Ethereum.
Technical Ability – We need a chain that actually works, has no downtime, good RPC endpoints, etc.
Gitcoin Matching - In order to donate all sales to Gitcoin, we need a chain where they have deployed their multi-sig.
While there were no scaling solutions that checked all the boxes, Polygon most closely aligns with the needs and wants of our users. There is a reason that several major brands are launching projects on Polygon.
We are excited to reach the next milestone towards getting Angel Battles 2 ready for the public.
