Battle mechanics

Diamond gifts

Viewers send gifts that convert to Diamonds, which count toward your battle score.

• Different gifts have different Diamond values
• Gifts appear as animations during the battle
• Diamonds add up throughout the battle
• Higher-value gifts create more visual impact
• Thanking supporters encourages continued support

Battle scoring

The creator with more Diamonds when time runs out wins the battle.

• The score shows in real time during the battle
• Both creators can see each other's scores
• The final score decides the winner
• Ties are rare but possible
• Winning doesn't always mean more revenue. Engagement matters

Battle duration

Battles typically last 5-10 minutes per round, and you can play more than one round.

• You can set custom time limits
• You can play multiple rounds in one session
• Take breaks between rounds to keep your energy
