# Disciplines, Leagues & Modes

CAThletes compete in running disciplines for $WLKN tokens. Competitions take place in <mark style="background-color:purple;">**8 Leagues**</mark>. There’s a minimum CAThletes ***entry level*** for each League, and the higher the League, the ***higher the rewards*** for winning.

* level **0** CAThletes can enter the first League;
* for the second League, CAThletes of level **2 and 3** are welcom&#x65;**;**
* for the third League — level **4 and 5;**
* for the fourth League — level **6 and 7;**
* for the fifth League — level **8 and 9;**
* the sixth League is for level **10 and 11** CAThletes;
* the seventh League is for level **12 and** 13 CAThletes;
* the eightth Leagues is for leve **14 and 15** CAThletes.

Thus, players are encouraged to upgrade their CAThletes, enter higher Leagues and win more tokens.

There are three running disciplines in each League, available both in PvE (league I-III) and PvP modes: *sprint*, *marathon* and *urban running*. Each competition costs **one point of energy**, which is restored over time.&#x20;

Each of the CAThlete’s stats influences the chances to win in a particular running discipline. **Speed** plays a major role for winning in sprints, **strength** — in urban running, and **stamina** — in marathons. Once the discipline and CAThlete are selected, Walken algorithms quickly find a **rival** of equal level among other players, and then the race begins.

CAThletes can compete in PvE and PvP modes:

* <mark style="background-color:orange;">**PvP Duels and Isle Clash**</mark> are available in Leagues IV-VIII
* <mark style="background-color:purple;">**Competitions**</mark> are for Leagues I-III
* <mark style="background-color:green;">**The CAThletic Games**</mark> are for Leagues IV-VIII

> **PvE competitions in Leagues IV-VIII are the CAThletic Games, where registered teams, lead by Rainbow-eyed CAThletes, compete in auto-played mode for chests with a share of a prize pool.**&#x20;
