Live Game Entry Recording


Step 1: Choose a Session

Go to the Lobby and pick a game session.

  • Blitz (15m) : For fast-paced action.
  • Offensive (1H) : For balanced, moderate volatility.
  • Siege (4H) : For strategic, long-term trends.
Session Timing

All games on BattleGrid are strictly aligned with standard UTC candles. A 4H session, for example, will start and end precisely at 00:00, 04:00, 08:00 UTC, etc. Prices are locked in exactly at the start of the candle and settled at the close.

Step 2: Build Your Roster

Select 9 Coins from the market list to fill your 3x3 grid.

  • Tip: Mix blue chips (BTC, ETH) with volatile alts for balance.

Step 3: Pick Your Captain

Assign your Captain to your most confident or highest-volatility pick (always the first coin in position 1).

  • Your Captain scores 2x points when correct, but applies a 2x penalty when wrong. Choose wisely.
