Battle For Giostone's Launch Season Concludes with $5,000 Prize Pool

Conclusion of Launch Season

The Launch Season for Battle For Giostone has officially wrapped up after two weeks of competition. This event, which ran from October 18 to November 1, featured thousands of matches, culminating in OKimHERE finishing first on the EU server and Zeeereeef taking the top spot in SEA.

Prize Distribution

The total prize pool of $5,000 was split evenly between the two servers, with each region receiving $2,500. The top 100 players in each region will receive rewards in $GBFG, with the following payouts:

• 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

While the studio has announced that payouts will be delivered directly to players' accounts, no specific date for these distributions has been provided.

Eligibility and Gameplay

To qualify for the leaderboard, players had to complete at least 10 ranked matches on either the EU or SEA servers during the event period. Any Hero owned by the player, including a free starter Hero, was eligible for ranking. Rankings were determined solely by players' Matchmaking Rating (MMR).

Looking Ahead

The game’s in-game currency, $GBFG, will eventually be converted to a new BFG token, with details on the conversion process to be released before the token goes live. The studio, M-Tech Entertainment, has not yet disclosed a launch date for the new token or the next competitive season, but they promise more information is forthcoming. The relaunch of Battle For Giostone marks a significant step forward for the game, which first launched in 2022 and has undergone substantial updates since then.
