Enter the fabled Battle Arena where your Crypto Prophecy is made. Do you have what it takes to overthrow your opponents and win massive rewards?

Before entering the Battle Arena, you’ll need to first choose which of your prophets you want to send into battle — that’s assuming you were lucky enough to get more than one!

Here a reminder of the Satoshian Crypto Prophets available in generation one:

You’ll also need to decide on how many TCP tokens you wish to wager on your prophets’ success against their opponents.

Once you’ve selected your prophet and wager, the matching engine will search for a skilled opponent with the same stake. The battle will start once an opponent has been found or challenged and accepted.

Or you can send a custom battle challenge to other players with the wager size of your choice.

Initially, each battle consists of 10 trading candlesticks, making up the timeframe of the battle. For instance, if a contest is played on 10-second candles, and there are ten candles in total, then the game will last for 100 seconds.

Gameplay involves players recognising the pattern of candlesticks. They need to decide whether each trading candlestick’s outcome will close up, ending green, or close down, ending red.

If players think a candle will trade up, they will place their prediction using the green up button. Similarly, players will place their prediction using the red down arrow button if they think the candle will close down.

Delivering more of a challenge, the Battle Arena uses a points system. Each candle starts with a maximum of 100 points available; however, as the candle’s time reduces, so do the available points.

Additionally, if a player gets a prediction wrong, they lose the equivalent amount of points based on the time they made their decision.

And if a player misses a candle prediction entirely, they lose 100 points, so you need to stay sharp and alert.

To turn things up a notch players can cast spells against their opponent, reducing their visibility of the trading candlesticks or removing their ability to predict the outcome for a set amount of time.

Different spells are available, all with varying effects. If a player has a Crypto Prophet with slots to contain staffs and wands, the player can add new NFT items into those slots that come with spell casting capabilities.

The player who scores the most points is the winner of the battle. At the end, the winner will be shown on the screen and will need to release their winnings from the smart contract.

While a draw is unlikely to occur, if it does, then the wager is refunded to both players, excluding the Kingdom Fee. Players will also have the chance to rematch, which they can accept or decline. If a player accepts, then a new battle with the same settings will commence taking into account that both players will need to have enough TCP tokens.

However, if either player declines or the timer to accept runs out, then the chance for a rematch is gone.

So, what do you think? Do you have what it takes to take on your opponents head-to-head in this fast-paced price-prediction game?
