# Mask and Marauder

## **“Mask” (Recruiter) and “Marauder” (Signed Players)**&#x20;

* Players without an X̅-PASS can sign a Mask\&Marauder Contract with a Mask in the Global Contract Hall to use a sponsored X̅-PASS (Mask) and sponsored Tickets as Marauders.
* Anyone holding at least 2 Season Stakes or at least 1 OGX qualifies as a Mask. A Mask can purchase up to 40 X̅-PASS and publish 40 Mask\&Marauder Contracts.
* Masks who want to join X̅ League matches themselves need to buy a separate X̅-PASS.&#x20;
* Masks cannot sign a Contract to be a Marauder.

## **Mask & Marauder Contract Signing Mechanism**

* Masks can purchase up to 40 X̅-PASS (Mask), then publish Contracts in the Global Contract Hall immediately after purchase.&#x20;
* X̅-PASS (Mask) has the same utility as X̅ PASS.
* Masks can decide whether or not to sign the Contract with Marauders who apply for a slot.&#x20;
* Once a Contract is signed between a Mask and a Marauder, it takes effect immediately, and Marauder will be able to use an X̅-PASS (Mask) for free.
* The Contract becomes invalid as soon as either the Mask or the Marauder terminates it.
* All Mask and Marauder roles, as well as Marauder Contracts will be reset at the end of the season.&#x20;

**Note**:&#x20;

A player can hold a maximum of 2 X̅-PASS, with the following two restrictions：

* Up to 1 personal X̅-PASS
* Up to 2 X̅ PASS (Mask) sponsored by Masks

## **Ticket Preload**

* Marauders can use Tickets preloaded by the Mask into the Contract to increase their available match entries.
* Each Marauder can use up to 40 additional Tickets per day.
* Masks can refill Tickets into a specific Contract at any time.
* After a Contract is terminated, any remaining Tickets (not including those from the X̅ PASS (Mask)) associated with that Contract will be transferred to other Contracts by the Mask.
* Unused Tickets will be removed from the system at the end of the season.

**Note:**

* The 10 daily Tickets will be displayed directly on the X̅-PASS, showing the remaining available entries.
* Any additional Tickets purchased by players will be automatically stored in their personal Inventory.
* Tickets preloaded by a Mask into a specific Contract must be manually claimed by the Marauder.

## **Earnings Split and Tax**

* The split applies to both Gummy and Season Points earned by the Marauder.
* Masks can set the earnings split ratio before a Contract is signed. They can freely negotiate within 11 revenue split tiers, with Masks giving Marauders a minimum of 20% and up to 80%.
* Once a Contract is signed, the earnings split cannot be changed. To adjust the ratio, the existing Contract must be terminated first before a new one with the adjusted split ratio is signed.
* If the Marauder is participating in a match at the time of termination, the rewards from that match will still follow the original earnings split.
