Today we’ll take apart the two most popular skill-gaming modes and let you decide which one is better!

⚔️ HEAD 2 HEAD.

The classic. We both bet 2€ the winner gets 4€! So I can double my money with only one win. Or just lose everything.

➕THE PROS:
- fast money
- just one match
- easy to understand

➖THE CONS:
- matchmaking can take up to 60min
- profit always depends on the stake
- win 100% or lose 100%

We think that HEAD 2 HEAD model is interesting for players who are sure to win every game and are ready to play for high stakes. The casual player…..?

CLIMB THE LEADERBOARD.

What is the alternative? Leaderboard events? 🤔

Our users pay a small entry fee of 1–3€ per event and then simply play their matches, often only up to 5. Depending on their performance they will get a share of the big prize pool!
So even average users can win up to 150€ with only 2€ entry & only 5 wins! 😁

➕THE PROS:
- no waiting for opponents
- play whenever you want
- play your skill-level
- win up to ∞ times your stake

➖THE CONS:
- more matches must be played

What do you think?

Which mode would you rather play?
Do you like Head 2 Head competition and want to compete directly with other players?
Or do you like to climb up the leaderboard with each win to increase your winnings?
