Encho is the first-ever Evo rarity Style in Volleyball Legends, introduced in Season 13's Update 63. It's a limited-time, all-rounder Style built around a signature mechanic called Stretch, which extends the character's arms mid-air to dramatically increase hitbox range on blocks, spikes, serves, and sets. The name "Encho" translates to "Extension" in Japanese, and the gameplay matches the label.
Quick answer: Spin for Encho using the gacha system under the Styles menu. Select Encho from the Evo category before spinning. Use Lucky Spins for a 0.25% drop chance — normal spins sit at just 0.005%. Encho leaves the game on April 11, 2026, at 11:30 AM ET.
Encho Drop Rates and Pity System
Encho sits at the Evo tier, which is mechanically equivalent to Ultra rarity in terms of spin difficulty. The drop rates are among the lowest in the game, so understanding the numbers before you start burning through your stockpile matters.
| Spin Type | Drop Rate | Pity Guarantee |
|---|---|---|
| Normal Spin (100 Yen each) | 0.005% | 400 Lucky Spins |
| Lucky Spin | 0.25% | 400 Lucky Spins |
Normal spins are effectively useless for targeting Encho. A 0.005% chance means you'd need, on average, 20,000 normal spins to land one. Lucky Spins improve that to roughly 1 in 400, and the pity system guarantees Encho after 400 Lucky Spins if you haven't rolled it by then.
How to Get More Spins
Lucky Spins can be obtained through the Season Pass, Robux purchases, AFK rewards, and redeeming codes. Three codes were active at launch for Update 63: UPDATE_63, EVO_RARITY, and STRETCH. These may expire, so redeem them as soon as possible through the in-game codes menu.
Another reliable method is playing during admin abuse events, where the game's admins distribute large quantities of free spins to active players. These events are unscheduled, so staying active in the community helps you catch them when they happen.
Stockpiling spins before you start rolling is strongly recommended. If you go in with a small reserve and don't hit Encho, you'll burn through resources with nothing to show for it.
Encho Availability Window
Encho is a limited Style. It becomes permanently unobtainable on April 11, 2026, at 11:30 AM ET. After that date, no amount of spinning will produce it. If you want Encho, the window is roughly the first two weeks of April 2026.
Encho Base Stats
Encho is classified as an all-rounder, with strong offensive numbers and a unique ninth stat — Stretch — that no other Style possesses.
| Stat | Base Value |
|---|---|
| Jump | 100% |
| Stretch | 100% |
| Spike | 90% |
| Serve | 80% |
| Dive | 70% |
| Block | 60% |
| Bump | 60% |
| Set | 60% |
| Speed | 50% |
The standout numbers are 100% Jump and 100% Stretch, paired with 90% Spike. Speed is the weakest stat at 50%, which means Encho relies on positioning and reach rather than raw court movement. The Stretch stat directly controls how far the character's arms extend while airborne.
How the Stretch Ability Works
Stretch is Encho's Evo Special. While airborne, Encho's arms automatically extend over time, increasing the hitbox for whatever action you're performing — blocking, spiking, serving, or setting. The longer you're in the air, the further the arms reach. This lets Encho contact balls that would be completely out of range for every other Style in the game.
In practical terms, Stretch makes Encho a nightmare to spike against (extended block range) and gives offensive plays a much wider effective zone. It's particularly strong on blocks and high-altitude spikes where hang time is naturally longer.
Evo Skill Tree — Upgrade Paths
Unlike Ultra Styles, which upgrade linearly, Evo Styles use a branching skill tree. Encho has three distinct paths — Speed, Strength, and Range — with four upgrade tiers each (Minor Buff → Buff → Cosmetic → Ultimate). You earn skill points by completing ranked quests, and you can accumulate a maximum of 6 skill points out of 12 total possible upgrades. That means you need to commit to a build rather than maxing everything.
Speed Path (⚡ Lightning Blocks)
| Tier | Effect |
|---|---|
| Minor Buff | +25% Block Power |
| Buff | +10% Style Speed |
| Cosmetic | Lightning Arms visual |
| Ultimate | Lightning Hands, Max Block, +100% Stretch Speed |
The Speed path turns Encho into a dominant blocker. The Ultimate tier grants maximum Block stat and doubles Stretch speed, meaning arms extend almost instantly. This is the defensive-oriented build.
Strength Path (💪 Metal Glove Spikes)
| Tier | Effect |
|---|---|
| Minor Buff | +5% Spike Power |
| Buff | +10% Spike Power |
| Cosmetic | Steel Hands visual |
| Ultimate | Super Spike on Sweet Spot, Hidari Spike on Weak Spot, −75% Stretch Speed |
Strength maximizes offensive spike power, but the Ultimate tier comes with a severe trade-off: a 75% reduction in Stretch speed. Your arms still extend, but much more slowly. This build rewards precise timing and sweet-spot hits over raw reach.
Range Path (🎯 Long Arm Sets)
| Tier | Effect |
|---|---|
| Minor Buff | +10% Stretch Range |
| Buff | +15% Stretch Range, +30% Set Power |
| Cosmetic | Bronze Arms visual |
| Ultimate | Max Set, +35% Stretch Range |
Range leans into Encho's defining mechanic by pushing Stretch distance to extreme levels while also boosting Set to maximum. This is the playmaking build, ideal if you want to set up teammates from positions no other Style can reach.
Ranked Quests for Skill Points
Each skill point requires completing a ranked quest. Unlike Ultra Styles, Encho only needs one quest per level, making the grind somewhat lighter. The six quests escalate in difficulty.
| Quest | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Skill Point 1 | Win 15 Ranked games |
| Skill Point 2 | Win 35 Ranked games |
| Skill Point 3 | Win 75 Ranked games |
| Skill Point 4 | Win 125 Ranked games |
| Skill Point 5 | Win 175 Ranked games |
| Skill Point 6 | Win 250 Ranked games |
All six quests are cumulative wins in Ranked mode. Reaching the full 6 points requires 250 total Ranked wins, so start grinding early if you want a fully upgraded Encho before the Style leaves the game.
How to Confirm You Unlocked Encho
When Encho drops from a spin, you'll see the Evo rarity animation play — it's distinct from Ultra, and Secret reveals. The Style will then appear in your equipped Styles list. You can verify it's active by checking for the Stretch stat in your stat breakdown, which only Encho possesses. Once equipped, the Upgrade Paths menu will also become accessible, showing the three skill tree branches and your current quest progress.
Encho is also the first Style above Secret rarity that lacks a dedicated player card, so don't be alarmed if you don't see one. It does, however, feature a unique MVP cutscene that plays when you're the top performer in a match — a quick visual confirmation that the Style is working as intended.
Encho represents a genuinely different approach to Volleyball Legends Styles. The Evo skill tree system, the Stretch mechanic, and the limited availability window all make it one of the most consequential additions in the game's history. Whether it's worth the spin investment depends on your playstyle and patience, but the April 11 deadline means the decision can't wait forever.
