War Bond System

War Bonds are the competitive "loyalty points" of the BattleGrid arena. Unlike cash prizes which are won and settled instantly per game, War Bonds accumulate over a weekly cycle and determine your leaderboard ranking for the community treasury.

The War Bond system solves a simple problem: Consistency should be rewarded. Even if you don't win 1st place in a single game, playing well and playing often earns you tickets to the weekly main event.

How It Works​

  1. Play Games: Every Market Grid session earns you War Bonds.
  2. Score Points: You earn bonds based on 6 Performance Categories.
  3. Weekly Pot: 5% of every entry fee paid on the platform goes into the War Bond Treasury.
  4. Sunday Settlement: At the end of the week (Sunday 00:00 UTC), the treasury is distributed.

6 Ways to Earn War Bonds​

You earn War Bonds in 6 different categories after each game:

1. Correct Selections​

  • 25 Bonds per correct directional prediction.
  • Max: 225 Bonds (9/9 Correct)

2. Captain Best Performer (Market Grid Only)​

If your chosen Captain has the highest absolute volatility (% change) among your 9 cards, you earn a flat bonus.

  • Bonus: 100 Bonds
  • Note: Your captain just needs to move the most, even if your direction prediction is wrong.

3. Accuracy Threshold​

Rewarded for high-accuracy play (50% or better).

  • 50-59%: 50 Bonds
  • 60-69%: 60 Bonds
  • 70-79%: 70 Bonds
  • It scales up to 100 Bonds for 100% accuracy.

4. Rank Position​

Top 10 players in any lobby earn rank bonuses.

  • 1st Place: 100 Bonds
  • 2nd Place: 90 Bonds
  • 10th Place: 10 Bonds

5. Podium Streak​

Maintain a "Hot Streak" of Top 3 finishes in consecutive games.

  • 2nd Consecutive Podium: Earns 100 (1st), 75 (2nd), or 50 (3rd) Bonds respectively.
  • Streaks reset if you finish outside the top 3.

6. Play Streak​

Simply showing up matters.

  • Played Yesterday (UTC)?: +25 Bonds

Weekly Distribution (The Hybrid Model)​

The War Bond Treasury is split 50/50 between Guaranteed and Lottery.

A. The Guaranteed Pool (50%)​

This half is shared exclusively by the Top 3 War Bond Holders of the week. You climb the cycle leaderboard by earning as many bonds as possible.

B. The Lottery Pool (50%)​

This half is raffled off to 10 Random Winners.

  • 1 War Bond = 1 Lottery Ticket.
  • The more you play, the higher your chances.
  • Even a casual player with 100 bonds can win big. Note: Top 3 winners are excluded from the lottery.
