This system gives certain advantage when in either Light of Dark mode, each have warm up and cool down times however still allow for great adaptability. Light mode makes units airborne and gives them greater line of sight and do damage better from a distance. Dark mode increases all Masari units rate of fire and speed,gives all units and structures a shield at the expense of grounding flying units and a decreased line of sight.
