Skyweaver, the popular Web3 digital trading card game, recently announced its In-Game Tournaments which will come out in early 2024. Players are invited to unleash their strategic prowess and compete for the prestigious title of the 2024 World Champion.
The upcoming Song of Scales update comes with the arrival of In-Game Tournaments. Previously, for players to compete in tournaments on Skyweaver, they would need to use a third-party solution. The new update allows Skyweaver itself to organize and handle tournaments within the game.
New Tournament structures
Constructed Tournaments and Draft Tournaments are the two new official Tournament types available in Skyweaver with the release of the Song of Scales update. Different tournaments will have different entry requirements, such as using Spark, Weave, or Tickets. Constructed tournaments are traditional Skyweaver where you bring your own deck; Draft tournaments use the new Draft format.
The developers stated that one aspect about which they are particularly proud is that the new system is completely free to play, allowing anyone to climb all the way to the top without having to pay any money. You can use Weave to buy-in all the way up to the Seasonal Championship level if you seek the thrill of competition and want to challenge the best but don’t have time for the grind. But only the greatest will compete to advance to the inaugural Skyweaver World Championship!
Constructed Tournaments
Daily Ascent Constructed — Every day of the week, players can use Spark to join these Tournaments, which are always open. Play five matches with your best deck in an enjoyable competition to try and earn a spot in the Weekly Cup.
Weekly Cup Constructed— a Swiss Tournament against other players that runs twice a week on weekends. Players can enter the Weekly Cup using Weave or Weekly Cup Tickets which are won on the daily ascent tournaments.
Seasonal Championship Constructed– A tournament that takes place the first weekend of the next season. Players can use a Seasonal Ticket or Weave to gain entry. A unique cosmetic that can only be obtained through the Seasonal Championships will be given to every player who takes part. The tournament rewards are USDC, Weave, and the chance at the coveted Worlds Invitation!
Draft Tournaments
The newest mode will also serve as a chance for players from all over the world and consequently feature a unique lineup of tournaments! The goal of this is to keep Draft and Constructed as equal components of the game. The Draft Tournaments also feature a Daily Ascent, a relic draft, a weekly cup, a seasonal cup, and lastly the World Championships.
World Championships
The first World Championship is the culmination of all the Daily, Weekly, and Seasonal Tournaments! The first World Championships will feature the most sought-after and distinctive tradables along with the largest USDC prizes Skyweaver ever awarded. This Tournament will also give players their first opportunity to design and/or feature in a Skyweaver card.
To be eligible to compete, a player must gain one of the 32 Worlds Invitations, which are awarded for winning a Seasonal Championship or meeting other special requirements all year long.
