MetaGoal Club Mode Rules

The Club Battle of Club Mode for MetaGoal S3 is a Football Club-based competition in which Football Clubs (FCs) compete against each other to earn reputation points and rewards. Each FC can have multiple teams, and each team is made up of player cards contributed by the FC members. There are eight different Tournament cups in the competition, with different tournament cup types, reputation rewards, and team requirements. At the end of the season, the FC with the highest reputation wins. And the rewards allocation within a FC is determined by individual Merit Points that are earned through player use and buying buffs for the FC.

Football Club Teams

1. Each Football Club (FC) can have multiple FC teams, up to a maximum of 8 teams.

2. The players in the FC team are contributed by the members of the FC themselves.

3. Each person can contribute up to 5 players.

4. After contributing, the player can still exist in the member’s lineup.

5. The contributed players enter the FC reserve team.

6. Only the FC head coach and assistant coach can assign the players in the FC team.

7. The FC team can have multiple teams at the same time, but the player can only be used in one team. For example, if Player A is in FC lineup 1, then Player A cannot enter lineup 2.

8. If a member wants to replace a contributed player, the player must not be in the lineup, otherwise, the replacement cannot be made.

9. Only one member with operation permission can edit each lineup. When that member is editing, other members cannot click on the lineup and will receive a popup message.

10. If a member leaves the FC, his players also automatically leave the FC team.

Club Battle

Club battles in this game use a season system, which is currently set to one and a half months (subject to change). These battles use a Tournament mode, with each match providing a reputation reward corresponding to the size of the Tournament. At the end of the season, the FC with the highest reputation wins.

FC Tournament

1. The FC head coach or relevant management personnel can sign up for participation. Different tournament cups provide different reputation values, and the number of participating teams will also vary.

2. The tournament has a registration time. When the registration time expires, the number of teams participating in the competition is determined based on the number of registrations.

3. The registration time for the tournament is 72 hours. After 72 hours, registration ends and the competition begins.

4. The different types of tournament cups offer varying amounts of reputation points as rewards. However, if the number of registered teams fails to meet the guaranteed minimum for the tournament, the maximum reputation point reward cannot be obtained.

For example, if the Champions Cup requires 16 teams to participate as a minimum and awards a total of 4800 reputation points, with an average of 300 points per team, if only 11 teams register, the total reward will be reduced to 3,300 points.

1. Sign-ups are not accepted once the tournament matches have begun.

2. The tournament adopts a single-elimination format, with one game to determine the winner.

3. Each FC can only send one team to participate in each tournament.

4. When multiple tournaments are started simultaneously, the FC can send multiple lineups to participate.

The specific Tournament Cups are as follows:

The tournament competition is divided into two stages: the preliminary round and the knockout round.

If the number of registered teams exceeds the guaranteed minimum, there will be a preliminary round of matches. If the number of teams is less than the guaranteed minimum, there will be no preliminary round but go straight to the knockout stage.

The number of rounds in the preliminary round is determined by the number of registrations and the guaranteed minimum.

Tournament Time

The specific times of the tournament cup are as follows:

• All tournaments start simultaneously, and no further sign-ups are allowed once a tournament has begun. Sign-ups for the next tournament open only after the previous one has concluded.

• When signing up, the FC needs to specify which team to use.

• After signing up, the FC team and lineup will be locked until end of the tournament, during which, the player on this lineup will not be affected by changes to the player’s ability even if the owner quit the FC.

• After the tournament is over, registration for the next tournament begins, and registration will automatically end within 72 hours of that day.

FC Reputation

• The starting reputation value of the FC is 0.

• The FC’s reputation will be automatically reset at the end of the season.

• The FC’s reputation can be earned by participating in FC tournament matches.

• Different cup types provide different total reputation points as rewards, and different rankings determines how many points an individual team can get.

Take a medium size tournament cup as example, where a total of 4,800 reputation points are available for allocation according to the ranking:

In the preliminary round of the cup, winning a match earns an additional 60 reputation points.

Individual Merit Points

Individual merit points consist of two parts: player use and buff purchases.

• If an FC member contributes a player who is selected to participate in a match, the member will earn merit points. Each player earns 30 points per match for its owner.

• Purchasing FC buffs can also increase merit points.

The amount of merit points gained varies depending on the level of the buff purchased:

The final FC rewards will be distributed based on individual merit points.
