Overview of Summoners War

Summoners War, also called Summoners War: Sky Arena, is a turn-based strategy massively multiplayer online game created by South Korean game developer, Com2uS. It was first released on June 12, 2014, for iOS and Android devices, and then released for PC on Jan 8, 2024.

In the game, players assume the role of a summoner, opening scrolls in order to acquire monsters to fight in turn-based battles.

#1. Monsters

Monsters come in five elements: water, fire, wind, light, and dark. These elements restrain each other.

In addition, the newly summoned monsters range from a 1-star grade to a 5-star grade, with 4- and 5-star monsters being the rarest. The star grade of a monster can be artificially raised by “evolution.” Monsters can also be “awakened,” or transformed. All of these will increase the monster’s combat power.

#2. Runes

A core mechanic of the game is the use of runes. Each monster can accommodate six runes, which helps boost its innate stats. These can be upgraded using mana (in-game currency), which increases the stats runes provide.

After reading the above content, you can know the gameplay of the game: acquire monsters (gacha system), use monsters to brush instance zones so that you can get various rewards, and then use these rewards to strengthen monsters and upgrade runes.

This game also has PVP gameplay modes, revealing your strength and unique strategy to the world.

Way 3. Use the Dedicated GPU, Not the Integrated GPU

In some cases, you have both the dedicated GPU and integrated GPU. Then, Summoners War uses the integrated graphic instead of the dedicated one. As a result, the Summoners War black screen occurs.

To solve this issue, you need to make the computer use the dedicated GPU. Taking Nvidia GPU as an example, you can go into your NVIDIA control panel > Manage 3D settings > Program settings. Then, you’ll add Summoners War as a program and make it use the high-performance NVIDIA processor.

Of course, you can also disable the integrated GOU. You just need to open Device Manager, expand Display adapters, right-click Intel HD graphics, and select Disable device.
