Eslabong Market Guide: Filters, Fighter Fields and Champion Questions
A current-build Eslabong Market reference covering the filters, fighter-card fields and the post-launch changes to fighters, relics and scouting.
Last Verified: 2026-09-10
Current Market filters
The current Market capture verifies the following filter tabs:
All · New · Affordable · Scouted · League · Watchlist · Champions
It also shows actions around Search Rival Rosters, Offers, Selling and List/Sell.

This screen is valuable because it exposes both the browsing layer and a fully expanded fighter detail panel.
What the Market lets you inspect
The live detail panel shows a lot more than just price:
- HP, ATK, DEF and SPD
- Class and Level
- Price and Market Value
- Renown Required
- Personality and Growth Style
- Tendencies
- Abilities
- Lifetime Combat
- Description
That means the Market is not just a shop. It is also one of the best current windows into how Eslabong describes a fighter.
Why this matters for later database pages
A screenshot like this is one of the strongest sources for building future:
- class reference pages;
- Champion pages;
- personality/tendency research notes;
- “what should I compare before buying?” guides.
Search Rival Rosters and scouting value
The visible Search Rival Rosters action is especially important because it shows the Market is tied to the broader competitive ecosystem, not just isolated buying/selling. Even without inventing hidden logic, we can safely say the interface supports a scouting mindset.
Champion buying question
A current Steam discussion asks why a Champion cannot be bought from the Market. That is exactly the kind of player-demand topic a guide should cover — but only when the answer is strong enough.
So the current page can say:
- the question is real;
- the Market has a dedicated Champions filter;
- the current UI proves Champion-related browsing exists;
- the exact restriction still needs stronger evidence.
What changed in the Market since launch
Several patches touched buying, selling and scouting:
- 0.33.6 — better gold progression, rebalanced chest rewards, and relic and Champion prices readjusted.
- 0.35.1 — rival-roster search extended across all six divisions, with Gold, swap or combined offers possible on outside fighters (information is limited outside your own division).
- 0.35.4 — signings more than five levels above your club standard now cost Renown (200 per extra level), and higher-division fighters carry a negotiation premium.
- 0.40.1 — Shiny fighters added: holographic cards at a 1/5000 rate with +20–40% base stats, a guaranteed Excellent affinity and a higher market value.
- 0.40.5 — roster slots expanded: starting size 20, upgradeable to 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50.
- 0.40.7 — Automatic Weekly Scout costs 2,000 gold per week and automatically adds new scouted fighters of the chosen class.
- 0.40.8 — the Rookie Development Cup (renamed from the Newbie Tournament) costs 2,000 gold, has no injuries and awards 600 XP per registered fighter.
- 0.40.8 — fighter personality, growth, injury risk and tendencies now display consistently across Market, Watchlist, Team Details and Codex.
Because these are patch-note facts rather than numbers we re-verified in the live build, treat the figures as the developer’s stated values at that patch.
What still needs verification
We still need cleaner current evidence for:
- Champion access conditions;
- exact offer/auction flow;
- what “Scouted” and “League” mean in every edge case;
- how much Market behaviour changes across progression or difficulty.
Q&A
What filters are in the Eslabong Market?
The current capture shows All, New, Affordable, Scouted, League, Watchlist and Champions.
What information is shown for a fighter?
The captured card includes HP, ATK/PWR, DEF, SPD, Class, Level, Price, Market Value, Renown Required, Personality, Growth Style, Tendencies, Abilities, Lifetime Combat and Description.
Is fighter information shown elsewhere?
Yes, and that is a post-launch improvement: since 0.40.8 personality, growth, injury risk and tendencies show consistently across Market, Watchlist, Team Details and Codex.
What are Shiny fighters?
Shiny fighters were added in 0.40.1 — a holographic card with a 1/5000 chance, +20–40% base stats, a guaranteed Excellent affinity and higher market value. 0.41.1 gave them unique VFX and over 10 variants.
Can I search rival rosters?
Yes. The current Market UI includes a Search Rival Rosters action, and 0.35.1 extended rival-roster search to all six divisions.
Why can't I buy a Champion?
Current Steam discussions show this is a real question, but the exact restriction is not fully verified yet, so this page does not invent a rule. Patch notes do show Champion pricing was readjusted in 0.33.6.
