Contest rules
Prizes are for skill.
How the Season Purse and the Cups work, in plain words. The exact prizes for each place are published before the season starts, and the Purse counter only rises.
Who can take part
Anyone with a Keeper account can play ranked, enter the free Cups and join a Flight. To take a prize from the Season Purse, your account must pass three checks:
- It has played ranked and is at least 7 days old.
- It has reached Silver or above.
- It owns a drake: a dragon evolved to its drake stage.
Not open where prize contests are not allowed.
What counts
- Ranked matches. Every ranked 3v3 adds to your Dragon Scales and your place on the ladder.
- Cups. Free-entry skill brackets for squads. Your placing in each Cup counts.
- Flight wars. Flight against Flight, for the Flight’s share of the Purse. Flight wars are coming later; until they run, nothing is paid for them.
How places are decided
- The ladder: by Dragon Scales won in ranked play. A tie goes to whoever reached that total first.
- Cups: by where your squad finishes in the bracket.
- Flights: by the Scales the Flight’s Keepers won together, then by wins, then by which Flight was founded first.
Scales won against the same opponent fade to nothing after three matches in a week, so farming one player gets you nowhere.
How prizes are paid
- Prizes are paid in USDT from the Season Purse, which is funded by a share of every sale and held in the Treasury Safe.
- They are paid at season end, after the dispute window, to the wallet on your Keeper account.
- The Purse is shared between the ranked ladder, the Cups and, once they run, Flight wars. The shares and the prize for each place are published before the season starts.
The dispute window
When the season ends, the final places are posted and stay open for 48 hours before anything is paid. If you think a place is wrong, yours or anyone’s, tell us in that time on Discord. We check every report before the prizes go out.
Fair play
- One account per person. A second account, or an account played for you by someone else, can lose every prize.
- No shared devices in the same match. Matchmaking never pairs the same device, IP or funding wallet, and matches that get round it don’t count.
- No bots, scripts or match-fixing. Throwing matches, trading wins or playing with a tool that plays for you is abuse.
We may withhold a prize from any account we find abusing the game.
