Online Typing Match
What's this?
You can play a typing match online here.
There is a handicap mode - a handicap will be applied on health bars, according to the typing levels, so even a typing beginner can play.
When you beat a stronger opponent, your online ranking will rise, so keep fighting.
Raise your keyboid
The more you practice typing, the stronger your keyboid becomes.
Your keyboid can rise up to level 30.
When your keyboid's level is low, it might be difficult to win an online match.
How to Play a Match
You can play a match with your grown keyboid.
All you have to do is to type what is shown.
When your gauge is full, you can choose "Power Mode," which increases your offensive strength.
You can select Power Modes by holding the SHIFT key and pressing the J key, or the SHIFT key and the K key, or the SHIFT key and the L key.
If you make many typos, you will be penalized. So you have to type correctly.
As you reach higher levels, you will learn new Power Modes.
The more powerful the Power Mode is, the more severely you will get penalized for even a small typo,
Press the F key, and you can go to the keyboid stats screen.
There you can choose up to three Power Modes.

About handicap
・You will be easily matched if you choose "No Preference" from within the options: With Handicap; Without Handicap; No Preference.・When both you and your opponent choose "No Preference," you will play without a handicap.
・Handicaps are decided based on your and your opponent's typing speeds. It might be difficult to win if your typing accuracy is low or your keyboid level is low.
・"With Handicap," the range of deductions will be smaller than with other settings.
The Ranking Registration
Your "Online Battle Ranking" will be registered after you finish your battle, while your "Typinger Ranking" will be registered manually.
Your "Typinger Ranking" will depend on the value of typing points you have earned.
The typing points have nothing to do with the strength of your keyboid. They are decided by your average typing speed per minute and your past accuracy.
Refer to The Typing Ranking Criteria.
