Battles

In a battle, two to four live creators share one picture, and whoever receives the most gift value before the clock runs out wins. Viewers on every player's stream watch the same battle; what they see is in Battles for viewers.

Invite#

1. Go live in the browser studio. Battles don't work with OBS, in a live event or while guests are on stage.
2. Press Challenge at the top of the studio.
3. Choose the Battle length: 3, 5 or 10 minutes.
4. Tap Pick on up to three creators under Live now, or search by name.
5. Press Invite (the button carries the name, or the number of creators).

The others get a PK battle invite on whatever page they are on, with Accept and Decline; they must be live to accept. Until then you see Waiting for … and can Cancel invite. An invite nobody answers lapses by itself.

Two players are side by side. With three, you (the host) have half the picture; with four, each has a quarter.

The clock#

Once they accept, press Start battle: only the host can. With three or four, start with whoever has accepted, or wait for the rest.

• Gifts count as points only while the clock runs. Before the start, viewers can't send gifts on the players' streams; after the bell, a gift goes only to that stream's own creator.
• With 30 seconds left the clock turns amber and a short bell rings; at 10 seconds it turns red. The bell plays on each person's own device, not in the broadcast.
• Players can't send gifts in their own battle.

Wear headphones, so the other players don't hear themselves.

The result#

After the bell, a result card shows who won; a tie at the top is a draw. Everyone stays live, and you can drag the card aside.

• Two players: Rematch offers another round; the other player sees Accept rematch.
• Three or four: everyone's points, most first. To play again, the host invites again.
• Leave battle takes you back to your own live.

Leaving early#

Press Leave battle at the top of the studio. While the clock runs, whoever leaves takes the loss; with three or four, the others carry on. In a two-player battle the host can also press Remove with the other player's name, which counts as the host leaving. Ending your stream mid-battle counts as leaving too; the app asks first.
