Server, recording medium and system
A server includes a storage unit storing characteristic data objects of each user, each characteristic data object having a first parameter value representing an ability of the characteristic data object to exert power, a second parameter value representing an ability to reduce the first parameter value of each characteristic data object of another user different from the user having the characteristic data object, and one of attributes having a superiority-inferiority relationship relative to each other. The server further includes a receiving unit receiving a game proceeding instruction from a device of each user, and a parameter adjusting unit adjusting the second parameter value of each characteristic data object of the user of the device, based on a first number of characteristic data objects of the user that have an attribute superior to a first attribute assigned among characteristic data objects of a second user different from the user.

in step (f), the character table is updated before the battle event starts.
7. A system for providing a game in which a user and an opponent battle each other, the system comprising:
memory configured to store a character table for a plurality of game characters, the character table including an identifier, a health point parameter value, an offensive parameter value representing an ability to reduce the health point parameter value and one of a plurality of attributes for each of the game characters, wherein the attributes have a superiority inferiority relationship relative to each other; and
processing circuitry configured to
receive a user input for selecting one or more game characters used by the user for playing a battle event in the game;
determine, for a first game character included in the one or more game characters, a first number which is the number of game characters that are used by the first user and have the same attribute as the first game character,
determine a second number which is the number of game characters that are used by the opponent in the battle event and have an attribute inferior to said same attribute;
adjust the offensive parameter value of the first game character based on the first and second numbers;
store the adjusted offensive parameter value representing an ability to reduce the health point parameter value in the memory so as to be associated with the identifier of the first game character, thereby updating the character table;
cause a display to display a battle screen of the battle event; and
reduce health point parameter values of the user and the opponent in accordance with offensive parameter value representing an ability to reduce the health point parameter values of the one or more game characters obtained from the updated character table.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein
the memory is configured to store a defensive parameter value for each of the game characters in the character table.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein
the processing circuitry is configured to adjust the defensive parameter value of the first game character to a larger value as the first and second numbers increase.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein
the processing circuitry is configured to store the adjusted defensive parameter value in the memory so as to be associated with the identifier of the first game character.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein
the processing circuitry is configured to reduce the health point parameter value of the user and the opponent in accordance with the offensive parameter value and defensive parameter value of the one or more game characters.
12. The system of claim 7 , wherein
the processing circuitry is configured to update the character table before the battle event starts.
13. The system of claim 7 , wherein
the system is a server.
14. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media configured to store computer program instructions, which when executed by a system for providing a game in which a user and an opponent battle each other, cause the system to:
store, in memory, a character table for a plurality of game characters, the character table including an identifier, a health point parameter value, an offensive parameter value representing an ability to reduce the health point parameter value and one of a plurality of attributes for each of the game characters, wherein the attributes have a superiority inferiority relationship relative to each other;
receive a user input for selecting one or more game characters used by the user for playing a battle event in the game;
determine, for a first game character included in the one or more game characters, a first number which is the number of game characters that are used by the first user and have the same attribute as the first game character;
determine a second number which is the number of game characters that are used by the opponent in the battle event and have an attribute inferior to said same attribute;
adjust the offensive parameter value of the first game character based on the first and second numbers;
store the adjusted offensive parameter value representing an ability to reduce the health point parameter value in the memory so as to be associated with the identifier of the first game character, thereby updating the character table;
