# Free To Play

A new player can start the game with 5 **Basic Heroes**. With these **non-NFT Heroes**, he can explore the world of **Heroes TD**, participate in early **PvP matches**, and earn some **eCGC**.

Players then can choose to withdraw these **eCGC** to **CGC** via [**Dapp**](https://blog.heroestd.io/2022/01/29/tutorial-how-to-request-for-cgc-withdrawal/), then sell these **CGC** at the **Marketplace**, or even trade with their friends using **Blockchain** technology.

However, low ranking **PvP matches** can only earn a limited amount of **eCGC**. To participate in high-ranking matches, a strong deck is required. Players can obtain **NFT** Heroes to strengthen their decks by purchasing them on **Marketplace**.
