What to study

The Dimensional Portal screen is a whole run's contract on one page: a node route map at left plots the climb toward a purple portal, while the right panel states the challenge ('League of their Own'), the difficulty (Covenant Rank 8), the loadout (Lazarus League primary, Awoken allied, Herzal's Horde Pyre Heart at 35/65) and the three Mutators that rewrite the run's rules, Train Stewards replaced by Graft units, a Blood of the Apex start, enemies entering with Spikes 1. A gold Depart button commits the build; Back, Rewards and Challenge Details sit in the footer for the player who wants the fine print first. Frame at about 0:27 in the Launch Trailer - Echoes from the void (Steam).
