Generating Revenue

Merging work & play

There are several ways through which users can earn:

• Competing in ranked PVP to top the leaderboard & win prizes.

• Winning NFT cards from opponents.

• Selling NFT cards on the marketplace.

• Collecting and speculating on rare cards such as "legendaries".

• Completing daily quests to farm METAL tokens.

• Using METAL tokens for yield farming and/or to acquire node rights.

Leaderboards

Leaderboards are highly competitive and meant to reward the best of the best among the players, compete for the top and win large token rewards!

Defeating opponents

Play for fun, fame or rewards. NFT Arena features three games modes:

1. Casual

2. Ranked

3. Custom

Casual allows you to play without any cost or risk. For fun, or just to practice. No assets are transferred through casual games.

Ranked matches feature standardized rules and use MMR (matchmaking rating) to find suitable opponents. In ranked matches, 1 NFT per match will be gained by the victor, from the defeated party's in-play cards.

Custom lobbies allow you to change the rules and stakes of the game, either to add or remove complexity from the game rules, or to increase/decrease the assets transferred as a consequence of winning or losing.

Tournaments, a (near) future expansion feature that allows to set a buy-in in tokens for 4, 8, or 16 players to compete for the pooled rewards.

NFT Marketplace

Users may sell cards they create or win from others through the in-app marketplace. A 4% commission on all sales applies, purchases using METAL tokens benefit from a discounted commission, set at 2%.

Rare Cards

The power on each card depends on a chance calculated upon card creation. A card is created whenever a new NFT is deposited on our smart contract, and features a unique identifier tied to each specific "real" NFT.

There are 5 categories:

1. Common

2. Uncommon

3. Rare

4. Epic

5. Legendary

Many factors are taken into account upon card creation, including: verified collection status, rarity, price history, randomness and more. Any NFT can potentially become a legendary card, but quality ones have a significantly better chance.

This means that cards that succeed in getting a higher level can (and in many cases will) have a different value in the NFT Arena market than they would in third party marketplaces.

Daily Quests

Users are rewarded with METAL tokens for continued in-game activity through varied daily quests.

Reward amounts will be balanced on an ongoing basis depending on market factors and the success of the game, and are thus subject to change.

DeFi

METAL holders can participate in Metalayer's DeFi solutions to generate further rewards with their tokens. Please visit this page for further details.
