#### Guardian Position

A battlefield on one player side will separate into 3 rows and 3 lines (Frontline, Midline, Backline).

Each row can bear with only 1 guardian, but each line bear with more than 1 guardian.

At the start of the game, a player must choose only 3 guardians and position them on the battlefield.

The 2 remaining guardians will wait in nexus, but they may support the game by their passive ability.

If any guardian on the battlefield is defeated, you will be able to summon the guardian that waits in nexus onto the battlefield in an empty row.

If 3 or more guardian of any player is defeated, that player loses the match.
