Box Battles let you open the same boxes as other players at the same time and compare results. This article covers how a battle works, the team sizes available, the four modes you can apply, and which combinations are allowed.

Pick a team size, pick a mode, then everyone opens the same boxes round by round. Team sizes run from 1v1 up to 3v3, including uneven formats like 1v3 and 1v5. There are four modes: Crazy Mode, Shared Mode, Group Unboxing, and Terminal Mode. Crazy Mode and Terminal Mode work with every team size. Shared Mode and Group Unboxing are only available on non-team battles, so a four-player shared battle is set up as 1v3 with Shared Mode rather than as 2v2.

Every player in a battle opens the same boxes in the same order. Each round, everyone opens one box, and the items pulled are added up. When all rounds are complete, the results are compared according to the mode you selected.

The gem cost to join is based on the boxes in the battle. Every player pays the same amount to enter.

All battle outcomes use our provably fair system, so every pull can be independently verified. See Provably Fair.

Battles are available in the following configurations:

Formats beginning with 1v are individual battles, where every player competes for themselves. Formats like 2v2, 2v2v2, and 3v3 are team battles, where players are grouped and results are pooled by team.

You can apply one of four modes to a battle.

The loser takes it all. The usual result is inverted, so the player or team with the lowest total value wins the pot instead of the highest.

The final round determines the winners. Instead of totalling every round, only the last round decides the outcome.

Players share their pulls. Rather than competing, everyone in the battle splits the combined results.

Open boxes together with friends, and everyone keeps whatever they pull. There is no winner or loser, it is a shared opening experience.

Not every mode is available in every format.

Setting up a shared battle with four players: because Shared Mode is not available on team battles, choose 1v3 and set it to Shared Mode rather than choosing 2v2. Both formats have four players, but only the 1v3 format supports sharing.

Items from battles go to your inventory, exactly like items from box opens. From there you can sell them back for gems, withdraw them, trade them on the Marketplace, swap them through Exchange, or display them in a Binder.

For the full set of options, see Cards: sell back, withdraw, exchange or display.

Box Battles support 1v1, 1v2, 1v3, 1v5, 2v2, 2v2v2, and 3v3. The formats beginning with 1v are individual battles where everyone competes for themselves. The 2v2, 2v2v2, and 3v3 formats are team battles where results are pooled by team.

Crazy Mode inverts the usual result so that the loser takes it all. The player or team with the lowest total value wins instead of the highest. Crazy Mode is available in every team size.

Terminal Mode means the final round determines the winners, rather than the total across all rounds. Terminal Mode is available in every team size.

Shared Mode means players share their pulls rather than competing for them. Shared Mode is only available on individual battles, so it can be used with 1v1, 1v2, 1v3, and 1v5, but not with 2v2, 2v2v2, or 3v3.

Group Unboxing lets you open boxes alongside friends with everyone keeping whatever they pull. There is no winner or loser. Like Shared Mode, Group Unboxing is only available on individual battles, not on team battles.

Set up a 1v3 battle and apply Shared Mode. Shared Mode is not available on team battles, so a 2v2 will not offer the shared option even though it also has four players. The 1v3 format gives you four players with sharing enabled.

Yes. Crazy Mode and Terminal Mode both work with every team size, including 2v2, 2v2v2, and 3v3. Only Shared Mode and Group Unboxing are restricted to individual battles.

Yes. Every pull in a battle uses the same provably fair system as a standard box open, so you can independently verify any result. See Provably Fair for how to check an outcome.

Items you receive from a battle go directly to your inventory, the same as items from a box open. You can sell them back for gems, withdraw them, trade them on the Marketplace, swap them through Exchange, or keep them in your collection.
