Payout Mechanics
The prize pool (80% of entries) splits into bounty and survival pools with distinct distribution rules.
Pool Structure
The prize pool (80% of entries) splits into bounty (70%) and survival (30%) pools.
Pool Allocations
| Pool | Share | Distribution |
|---|---|---|
| Bounty | 70% | Paid per kill |
| Survival | 30% | Winner takes all |
Example Pool Calculation
For 10 players at 1 SOL each:
- Player Pool: 8.00 SOL (80%)
- Bounty Pot: 5.60 SOL (70% of player pool)
- Survival Pot: 2.40 SOL (30% of player pool)
Bounty Distribution
Bounty is paid out per kill using a log-weighted schedule. Early kills (when more players are alive) pay more than late kills. See Kill Rewards for the complete bounty schedule.
Survival Distribution
The survival pot goes to the last player standing. If all players are eliminated simultaneously, tie-break rules apply.
Final Winner Payout
The winner receives the survival pot plus any remaining bounty (from self-eliminations or rounding).
Edge Cases
All Players TP Out
If all players Take Profit before a winner is determined, the survival pot goes unawarded and players keep their TP amounts.
Simultaneous Final Elimination
Tie-break rules determine the winner who receives the survival pot.
Single Player Remaining
The last player cannot TP and automatically wins, receiving survival pot plus remaining bounty.
