Splinterlands 101 - Fatigue Damage

(Edited)

Fatigue damage is an unknown myth to most #Splinterlands players, until the day they experienced it themselves.

“You feel fine, and then, when your body can't keep fighting, you don't.”
- Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember


Fatigue Damage Background Check

As always, before I write it with my own words, I tried to search for the official documentation regarding this in several places:

None of the above pages gave me any information regarding fatigue damage. So I decided to search in @Splinterlands Discord Server regarding this term, and guess what? I only found 444 results mentioning the word fatigue in the entire server, from 2018 until by the time I'm composing this post.

444 results since October 2018. That means in 1144 days, the word fatigue was only mentioned once in every 2.5 days in average. 🤯

Fatigue Damage in Splinterlands

Fatigue is synonymous with extreme tiredness or exhaustion that normally follows prolonged physical or mental activity.
Wikipedia

What is Fatigue Damage?

As the name imply, Fatigue Damage is a kind of damage dealt to all monsters whenever they are exhausted midst battle.

When are the monsters considered exhausted?

Exhaustion / fatigue will happens starting after Round 20.

How much damage will be dealt to the monsters?

Starting from the end of Round 21, each monsters will be dealt 1 damage.
Then at the end of Round 22, each monsters will be dealt 2 damage.
End of Round 23, each monsters will be dealt 3 damage, and so on, until the winner can be determined (or sometimes may results in draw).

Will the damage be affected by abilities or armor?

As far as I know (I have tried with some cleanse and flying skills), it will not be reduced by anything, and it will eat the health (ignoring the armor).
Please correct me if I'm wrong regarding this in comment below.

It happened to me too, but I was already familiar with it because I've played a lot of other card games where this also happens. I wonder if it's possible to build a deck just to fatigue? It was in other card games but I have a feeling it doesn't work in Splinterlands.

Hi chaosmagic23, it is absolutely possible to create a deck intending to win with fatigue, given there are certain rulesets that helps this.
If you see the example "Fatigue Battle 01" between me and creepycreature, you'll see that creepycreature actually set his deck without any attack at all, and yet he won.
Cheers.
