# How to compete in PvP

<mark style="background-color:red;">**Duels**</mark> — the PvP mode — are *online competitions* among players; the **rewards are considerably higher** than in the former PvE mode, yet the competition is naturally tougher. Here CAThletes’ skills are *put to test*, and players may also rank up the ***Tournament leaderboards*** to reap rich rewards for their performance.&#x20;

Duels are available **starting League 4** (that is for CAThletes on ***level 6 and higher***). Also, be sure to set a *profile picture* and *name* before you start.

* **CAThleticism: Your Secret Weapon**

**CAThleticism** encapsulates the *true essence of a CAThlete's potential*: it’s a total ***score of the 3 attributes*** of the character, *plus the stat points* of the sweet, stylish *outfits* your CAThlete wears. Think of it as the ultimate representation of their *all-round potential and awesomeness*. It’ll be indicated alongside with the good old strength, stamina, and speed stats.

* **More Inclusive & Thrilling Duels Awaits**

***It's not just about being rare, it's about being fierce.*** In this revolutionary PvP transformation, we're shaking things up with a system that *groups CAThletes based on their CAThleticism scores.* It's time to let real power do the talking in those Duels, right?

So, the entry requirements for CAThletes to ***duel for 3 available rewards*** will be **based on CAThleticism**, where every CAThlete will find their rightful place. This innovation ensures that duels are ***no longer determined solely by rarity***, but by the actual might and potential of your CAThlete.

A CAThlete will be able to ***duel for 1 of the 3 rewards***, based on CAThleticism score required to join in. Please note that the *other 2 rewards will be unavailable* for this CAThlete. This means that, for example, a CAThlete whose CAThleticism score allows to duel for the highest reward won't be available to him.

\
Imagine going head-to-head in PvP knowing you're ***on an even playing field***. It's about *strategy, skill, and unleashing your CAThlete's true potential*. The thrill of these battles is going to be off the charts – get ready for some *heart-pounding action*! With CAThleticism, ***you're not limited to rarity*** – you're playing to your CAThlete's strengths and style. It's a whole new chapter in the Walken adventure, and you're at the heart of it.

**To compete in Duels, players get to:**

* select the **League;**

> ***Note that the discipline will be random***

* select **a CAThlete** that would join the race;

> *Both NFT and non-NFT CAThletes* of level 6 and higher are eligible;

* select the **amount of reward** they’d like to compete for. *<mark style="background-color:yellow;">The reward a CAThlete is eligible to compete for will be auto-selected after you tap to select this CAThlete</mark>*;
* pick a **booster** (also known as *buff*) — Energy Drink, or a Laser pen that works as a **distraction** for the opponent (also known as *debuff*)*<mark style="background-color:yellow;">. Turn on auto-selection of the 2 boosters for all duels, forgetting about manual selection before every duel</mark>*;
* start searching for a rival and wait to get **matched with another player** who is **online** and willing to participate in a similar duel.

Each Duel costs a certain amount of ***Mysberries** (CAThletes need to build their strength, right?)* and ***energy unit(s)***, both are **non-refundable** no matter the outcome of the race. If we consider the PvE competitions you’re well familiar with, the cost to participate in them is *1 energy per race*; when it comes to Duels, each one **costs Mysberries on top of energy unit(s).** The higher the League and the reward, the higher the entrance fee both in Mysberries and energy.

> ***Please note: You do not pay any WLKN to participate in Duels. The Mysberries and energy for the race are deducted only if the search for a rival is successful, at the start of the duel.***

In addition to the Duels, we've added new wallet for **Mysberries** and now it's become more easier to keep track of all your Mysberries: here you can check balance, current boost, all transactions and also be able to purchase Mysberries.

Once a player gets matched with another player, the **duel begins** automatically. CAThletes are compared against each other in terms of stats, just like in the PvE competitions, with boosters in place. *The winner takes it all!*

> The ***$WLKN reward*** goes to the winner’s *pending balance*.

At the end of the race you’ll be able to view and ***share the duel results to socials***.

Putting it simply, to compete in Duels players need to have at least one CAThlete eligible to participate in League 4 or higher and having the required number of *energy units* plus enough Mysberries to pay the *entrance fee* for the selected Duel.

And here's the **fast-forward feature**!
