Other Mechanics
Seasons
The Colosseum will take place in seasons where every season will be a new start. Each season is currently planned for 3 weeks and rewards will be distributed at the end of every season.
Note that season lengths and frequencies are subject to changes.
Battle Mechanics
Wins
Wins are counted by the number of Wins your Gladiator has in the Arena. Wins will also determine your position on the season's Leaderboard and therefore the rewards you will receive at the end of each Season.
HP
HP determines whether your Gladiator is alive. A Gladiator that has lost all of its HP will die and not be able to partake in the Colosseum anymore for the Season. Gladiators will lose 1 HP whenever they lose a battle in the Colosseum or when they fail a Quest. The no. of HP a Gladiator has is determined by its class trait as below:
Warriors & Mage = 9 HP
Sharpshooters & Priest = 10 HP
Paladins & Summoners = 11 HP
Asura & Slayer = 12 HP
Players can also recover HP by drinking an Elixir.
Battle Rating (BR)
Battle Rating is perhaps the most important stat in the Colosseum and determines the probability of a player winning. Battle Rating can be increased through Training or Questing so as to give you an edge over competitors in the Colosseum. Season 4 has an updated battle formula. Refer below for the formula on how wins are calculated in the Colosseum. Battle Formula Example:
Gladiator A has a BR of 4.0 and Gladiator B has a BR of 2.5.
Basic Win Percentage:
Win % of A = BR of A / (BR of A + BR of B) = 4.0 / (4.0 + 2.5) = 4.0 / 6.5 ≈ 0.6154 or 61.54%
Win % of B = BR of B / (BR of A + BR of B) = 2.5 / (4.0 + 2.5) = 2.5 / 6.5 ≈ 0.3846 or 38.46%
Adjustment for Higher BR (A in this case):
deltaBR = BR of A - BR of B = 4.0 - 2.5 = 1.5
Increase in Win % for A = deltaBR * 0.03 = 1.5 * 0.03 = 0.045 or 4.5%
Adjusted Win % of A = 61.54% + 4.5% = 66.04%
Note that all the B.R stats will be reset for every Imbued Soul at the start of a new Season.
Rounds
Battles consist of a Best of 3 component. The first Gladiator to win 2 rounds will be considered the winner of the Battle. Refer to “Battle Rating (BR)” above on how wins per round are calculated in the Colosseum.
Arena State
Arena will only be open when there are 5% or over, of the season's gladiators inside. When the Arena is:
Open- Gladiators will be able to battle against other gladiators in the Arena.
Closed- Gladiators can enter the Arena but are unable to battle. While closed, Gladiators in the Arena will receive 0.1 B.R for every consecutive hr spent in the Arena. The B.R will be received when the Arena State returns to open.
Matchmaking
Matchmaking in the arena is random, in order to battle, your gladiator will need to be in the Arena. You can not be matched with the same gladiator twice in a row.
Reward Mechanisms
Colosseum Leaderboard & Rewards
The Leaderboard will rank Souls based on their number of Wins. The Top 50% of Gladiators at the end of a Season will be eligible for rewards based on their ranking.
Rewards players will be able to earn from the Colosseum can include $MAGIC, NFTs and WL Spots. A list of Rewards and their distribution method will be made known at the start of every Colosseum season.
Percentile Distribution Model
COP follows a percentile distribution model.
This Prize Pool will be distributed to all Gladiators at the end of the Season. This Prize Pool will be distributed based on the Souls ranking in the Colosseum.
Rank | Prize Pool |
Top 5% | 25% |
Next 10% | 25% |
Next 15 % | 25% |
Next 20% | 25% |
E.g. Prize pool is 10K $MAGIC and there are 500 Imbued Souls Gladiators for the Season.
Top 5% / 1 - 25 | 100 $Magic Ea |
Next 10% / 26 - 75 | 50 $Magic Ea |
Next 15% / 76 - 150 | 33 $Magic Ea |
Next 20% / 151 - 250 | 25 $Magic Ea |
If there are gladiators with an equal number of wins, their rankings will be determined by their win-rate and then the amount of remaining HP they have.
