Written with artificial intelligence.
The Launch Season of Battle For Giostone has ended, with OKimHERE and Zeeereeef topping the EU and SEA leaderboards, respectively. Each region's top 100 players will receive rewards in the form of the in-game currency $GBFG.
Launch Season Results
The recent Launch Season for Battle For Giostone concluded after two weeks of competitive gameplay. OKimHERE emerged as the top player on the EU server, while Zeeereeef claimed first place on the SEA server.
In a social media announcement on November 2, the studio shared, "The Launch Season is over. Two weeks. Thousands of matches. One leaderboard." The top 100 players from each server will receive rewards in $GBFG, which will be credited directly to their accounts, although the studio has not specified the payout date.
Prize Distribution
The total prize pool of $5,000 was split evenly between the EU and SEA servers, with each region allocated $2,500 for distribution among the top players. The breakdown of rewards is as follows:
- 1st Place: $400
- 2nd Place: $250
- 3rd Place: $150
- 4th and 5th Places: $100 each
- 6th to 10th Places: $60 each
- 11th to 20th Places: $35 each
- 21st to 50th Places: $15 each
- 51st to 100th Places: $8 each
Both OKimHERE and Zeeereeef will receive $400 in $GBFG as their rewards.
Eligibility and Gameplay
To qualify for the leaderboard, players needed to complete at least 10 ranked matches between October 18 and November 1, using any Hero they owned, including the free starter Hero. Players' rankings were determined solely by their Matchmaking Rating (MMR).
$GBFG is the in-game currency, distinct from the BFG token. It can be earned through gameplay and is used for forging Heroes. M-Tech also announced plans for the BFG token, which has a total supply capped at 150,000,000. Details about the conversion from $GBFG to BFG will be provided before the token launch, which has not yet been scheduled.
Game Background
The game, relaunched by M-Tech Entertainment on October 18, is a browser-based 5v5 MOBA requiring no installation. The studio had previously delayed the launch by three days, resulting in the addition of this Launch Season to incentivize player engagement. The game features six Heroes, including various classes like assassin, wizard, and warrior, each equipped with unique abilities. The previous iteration of the game began in 2022 and included esports tournaments.
While the next season's start date and prize pool remain unannounced, the studio hinted at more competitive gameplay, stating, "The next season is coming. Get ready."
