League standings are driven by a configurable points engine. Points are awarded or deducted automatically after each match, and standings update in real time.
League points are separate from match XP. XP is earned on every match across the platform, while league points only apply within a specific league and season.

How Points Work

After a match completes, the points engine calculates awards for both teams based on the match outcome:
  • Wins award base points to the winner
  • Losses deduct base points from the loser
  • Draws award draw points to both teams
  • Bonuses are added on top of base points for streaks, challenges, and other factors
  • Penalties are deducted for forfeits, refused challenges, and admin-issued penalties
If a league allows negative points, a team’s score can go below zero. Otherwise, points are floored at zero.

Points Table

These are the default point values. League admins can customize all of these.
EventDefault ValueDescription

Challenge refuse-4Additional penalty for refusing a challenge

Challenged win bonus+100%Bonus for the challenged team when they win (underdog bonus)

Season Selector

The leaderboard includes a season selector that lets you view standings for any season - current or past. Select a season to see the standings snapshot for that period. If no season is active, you will see preseason stats. Preseason matches still award points, but those stats are tracked separately from named seasons.

Streak Bonuses

Teams on a winning streak earn bonus points on top of their base win award. The bonus percentage increases with longer streaks:
Streak LengthBonus
3 wins+25%
5 wins+30%
7 wins+35%
9 wins+40%
12 wins+45%
15 wins+50%
20 wins+55%
25 wins+60%
50 wins+65%
100 wins+70%
Streak bonuses can be disabled or customized by league admins. Check your league’s point configuration for specifics.

Challenge Bonuses

When a team wins a challenge match, bonus points are awarded based on which side initiated the challenge:
  • Challenger wins - The team that sent the challenge gets a smaller bonus (default +25%) since they chose the matchup
  • Challenged team wins - The team that received the challenge gets a larger bonus (default +100%) as an underdog reward

Anti-Farming

To prevent teams from repeatedly playing each other to inflate points, leagues include anti-farming protections:
  • Matchup cooldown - Two teams cannot earn points from playing each other again within a configurable window (default: 24 hours)
  • Scrimmage restriction - By default, scrimmage matches do not award league points
If a match occurs during the cooldown window, it still plays out normally - but no league points are awarded or deducted.
