Make your collection work for you in this brand-new game
We previously announced that the first MotoGP™ Ignition game mode would launch after the official MotoGP™ Ignition Marketplace, so now it’s time to introduce MotoGP™ Ignition Champions!
MotoGP™ Ignition Champions launches in what we refer to as Pre-Season (consider it the beta), which is scheduled to release on 6 July 2022. In this article we will dive into the rules so you will have a good idea on how to prepare your team for the inaugural event and earn REVV!
Champions uses the Card Collectibles so far released for MotoGP™ Ignition. To participate in an event, you can pick a Team of up to 4 Riders and 1 Manufacturer. You can choose any Cards to fill Riders and Manufacturers slots, but there is a greater benefit for you if you fill a Rider slot with a Rider Card.
Once you have selected all of your Cards, they will be locked-in for an event. The event will run for 3 days, with each day running 1 GP. The races are simulated in a sense that your riders performances are based on real-life performance, data, and variables such as track and weather of that GP.
Based on your selected team’s performance in a GP, you will receive a number of Race Points. Race Points are defined by the final standings of the race, and your rider and team composition. After 3 GP’s have been completed, the event concludes, the ranked players by Race Points will be able to earn REVV.
Each Team that players form for MotoGP™ Ignition Champions has a budget and each Card has a cost. The cost of your four riders and one manufacturer has to fit within this Team budget, which is the same for all players. The budget is in place to ensure that balanced selections are required, so players cannot just stack the most consistent Riders and Manufacturers.
NOTE: There may be changes in rider and manufacturer cost when a Pre-Season ends.
In Pre-Season, having more than 1 MotoGP™ Ignition Card (including Hot Shots) in your wallet will unlock the ability to ‘Boost’ your selected Riders.
If you own 2 MotoGP™ Ignition NFTs, then you can Boost one Rider to receive double points for all the races in an Event. If you own 3 or more MotoGP™ Ignition NFTs, then you can Boost another Rider to receive triple points for all races…
