## 4. Match Mechanism (For Players)

Players qualify by purchasing an X̅ PASS ($20) to compete for Gummies, Season Points, and earn rewards from Party Heist Mask Mode matches.

### 4.1 Core Mechanics

#### 4.1.1 Entry Qualification

* Purchase X̅ PASS: 5 matches per day during the league period.
* Purchase Extra Tickets: $3 for a pack of 5 tickets; each ticket grants 1 additional match. No purchase limit.

#### 4.1.2 Fatigue System

As the number of matches increases, the Fatigue System is triggered, gradually decreasing earnings per match. Fatigue resets automatically at UTC 00:00 daily.

| Match Count | Earnings Ratio |
| ----------- | -------------- |
| 1-50        | 100%           |
| 51-70       | 90%            |
| 71-80       | 80%            |
| 81-90       | 70%            |
| 91-100      | 60%            |
| 101+        | 50%            |

### 4.2 Match Rewards

* Base Prize Pool per Match: 4,000 Gummies are fixed per match for competition.
* Custom Loadout: Players can invest up to 500 extra Gummies to boost loadout; consumed Gummies go directly into the match prize pool.
* Gummy Reward Rule: Gummies successfully extracted by the player are the reward for the match.
* Season Points Rule: Every player receives 200 base points per match regardless of extraction. Successful extraction adds points equal to the amount of Gummies extracted.
* Taxation: A 15% Shareholder Tax is deducted from Gummies and Points. Top 15 players on the Season Leaderboard and OGX holders are tax-exempt.

## 5. Stakeholder Mechanism (For Investor Players)

Investors can purchase Season Stakes to become X̅ LEAGUE Stakeholders and earn passive income.

| Sales of Season Stakes                                 | 25%              |
