Duelyst Community Prizing
Bandai-Namco partners with Battlefy to provide prizing for tournament organizers
We have teamed up with Bandai-Namco to offer free prizing for your next Duelyst tournament. What does this mean? You can now create a tournament and apply for prizing in one seamless process! Spread the word! It’s easy as 1, 2, 3…
Step 1 — Create Your Event And Apply For Prizing
During the tournament creation process, you will be asked several questions to help us determine the kind of players you are trying to attract and the amount of prizing your event will be eligible for.
There are two kinds of tournaments you can apply to have prizing for…
Hardcore — Select hardcore if you want to run a competitive event with a big prize pool on the line. Although anyone is welcome to participate, you will likely see a lot of diamond and S-ranked players.
Casual — Just for fun? Amateur players? Select casual if you want to run a tournament for the community. Players who have ranked Diamond or higher in the last three months will not be eligible for participation.
After creating your tournament, hit submit and sit tight! We will be hard at work reviewing and approving your event!
Step 2 — Promote and Run Your Event
Once your tournament is approved and given the green light for prizing (you will hear from us directly via email), we encourage you to promote the heck out of it to the Duelyst community. Post on the appropriate subreddits, Discord servers, and social media channels to ensure players know about it — don’t forget to mention the awesome prizing!
Step 3 — Submit For Prize Payout
Once your tournament is complete, you will need to submit the results for prizing. You can do this from the manage panel of your tournament. Fill out the required fields and Battlefy will take care of prize distribution (it’s our pleasure). Players will receive their prizing within 7 days of the tournament results being submitted.
