Fair play
What keeps this competition fair, who may enter, and how to check any of it yourself.
Skill, measured
Two hundred pools were played at every pool size, full and at the smallest field each plays at, with the same scoring engine that pays every real pool. The only thing that differed between the players below was how they split their points across the seven battles; the table shows how often each placed first. A player who leaves every battle on the default even split never placed first — not rarely, never: against any battle that concentrates its points on three stats, an even split takes only the two that were left short, and loses three to two by construction.

Every wallet is checked
Before an entry is accepted, the wallet is checked against published sanctions lists. Before any prize is paid, every wallet in the payout list is checked again. The lists are refreshed from their publishers several times a day. If a check cannot be answered, the prize is held rather than paid; it is never paid to a wallet nobody checked.
Adults only

Nothing random decides a result
Randomness from a recent slot hash, mixed with your entry’s position in the pool, the pool and your wallet’s key, decides ONE thing: which character class artwork your pass shows. Class is cosmetic. It does not affect any stat, any battle, any score, any rank, or any prize — nothing in the scoring path reads it. Scoring and prizes depend only on the sealed battles every player submitted. Every class draw is replayable from published on-chain data.
