Cognitive Tax+ enables

  • Gold On the Menu

    The player-level economy resource — earned each round (base income + interest + win/loss streaks), spent on rerolling the shop, buying XP, and purchasing units. Augments grant flat gold, raise interest, or make kills drop gold; some items generate gold on takedown.

  • Xp On the Menu

    The player-side progression resource. Spending gold on XP buys it; each level raises the team-size cap and shifts shop odds toward higher-cost champions. Augments grant XP directly or trigger off "level up" to accelerate the curve.
