''[[Kongai]]'' is an online [[Collectible Card Game]] designed by ''[[Street Fighter]]'' uber-nerd David Sirlin, with characters illustrated by Udon Entertainment, and is found exclusively on the Kongregate web site. The game is essentially a battle between two teams of three (or five, in some matches) different characters that can be mixed around at will. The amount of cards available started out as just four factions of five characters each (plus five similarly themed items), but has begun expanding to include four more factions of characters as well.
 
You can find the actual game [http://www.kongregate.com/games/Kongregate/kongai here]
Line 22:
As far as [[Meta Fiction]] is concerned, [[Excuse Plot|there isn't much of a story within the game]], other than brief snippets attached to each faction suggesting that they all contain groups of powerful, ancient warriors who have decided to fight each other, just because.
 
=== Factions ===:
* [[A Boy and His X|A Girl And her Tiger or Demonic Spirit]]
* Martial Artists -- A clan of Japanese [[Ninja]] and [[Samurai]]. When a student named Amaya turned his back on his master Higashi and fled, Higashi took a few other students to find Amaya before he killed anyone. However, the world outside their village has changed drastically since the last time they remember.
Line 33:
* Witches -- A circle of girls located somewhere in France who stumbled onto the secrets of magic and put it to use in everything from love potions to demon summoning. Their motives are currently unknown.

=== Tropes found within gameplay ===
 
* [[Amazon Brigade]] -- The Amazons of course.
* [[Ambiguous Gender]] -- Popo, to the point where The High Priestess (a Witch equip that works depending on the enemy's gender) outright fails against him/her. Another case, largely due to full body armor, seems to be Amaya.
Line 47 ⟶ 46:
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]] -- An entire faction of them includes different versions: The Quarterback-turned-vampire, the suave hypnotist with a powerful punch, the [[Evil Redhead|red-haired]] blood worshipper, the ancient Marquis, and the <s>gender-swapped Blade</s> Daywalker.
* [[Out-Gambitted]]
* [[Rock Beats Laser]]- It's entire possible for cards like [[Chicken Walker|Gorbax]] {{[[BFS |mark II}}]] to be defeated by poison darts and swords.
* [[Stripperiffic]] -- Almost all of the female characters' clothing. Witches avert this. even though Eva is meant to be a seductress.
* [[Shout-Out]] -- Ranec Vest has attacks named [[Street Fighter|"Psycho Crusher"]] and [[Tales of Monkey Island|"LeChuck's Curse"]]- also, his name is an anagram of "[[Soul Calibur|Cervantes]]."
** "MR-V1N, The Synthetic Depressive." Both the character and its attacks are an homage to [[The HitchhikersHitchhiker's Guide to Thethe Galaxy|another famous depressed robot.]]
** They managed to stuff three references into one of the witches' names: [[The Da Vinci Code|"Sophie Merovingian, the Symbologist."]]
** Yoshiro of the Martial Artists can perform a [[Street Fighter|Rising Dragon Fist.]] His Chi Blast isn't a Wave Motion Fist, but Angelan Series D{{spoiler|-[[Non-Mammal Mammaries|Cup]]}} can perform one just fine. Also, [[Xena: Warrior Princess|Anex the Warrior Princess]], using a chakkra... chakram... something like that.
