# How Does It Work?

#### **How do I join an existing battle?**

1. Visit the [Upcoming Battles](https://app.wingriders.com/battleOfPools) section.
2. Browse the available battles and select one that suits you.
3. Set the direction of your chosen token (<mark style="color:green;">UP</mark> 📈 or <mark style="color:red;">DOWN</mark> 📉).

#### **What if no battles are available?**

If there are no available battles, you can create your own in the Create Battle section and invite friends or wait for challengers to join.

#### **How do I create my own battle?**

1. Choose a token and set the direction (<mark style="color:green;">UP</mark> or <mark style="color:red;">DOWN</mark>).
2. Define the start and end dates for your battle.
3. Confirm your settings and share the battle with friends or the community.

#### **Can both players choose the same token with different directions (e.g., I say WRT&#x20;**<mark style="color:green;">**UP**</mark>**&#x20;and my opponent says WRT&#x20;**<mark style="color:red;">**DOWN**</mark>**)?**

Yes, both players can select the same token but set opposite directions, making the battle more direct and engaging.

#### **Can both players choose the same direction for different tokens?**

Yes, both players can choose the same direction for different tokens. For example, Player 1 can select WRT <mark style="color:green;">UP</mark>, and Player 2 can select SNEK <mark style="color:green;">UP</mark>. The same applies to the <mark style="color:red;">DOWN</mark> option as well.

#### **What happens if both players are correct with different tokens (e.g., I say WRT&#x20;**<mark style="color:green;">**UP**</mark>**, and my opponent says SNEK&#x20;**<mark style="color:red;">**DOWN**</mark>**)?**

Both players can make the right strategic choices for their tokens. The winner is determined by the platform's evaluation system - [Block-by-Block Tracking](/battle-of-pools/block-by-block-tracking.md).

For example if WRT moves from 1 ADA 50% up, to 1,5 ADA in first block and 50% down to 0.75 ADA in second block:

\- Block by block tracking detects movement of 0 - +50% - 50%.

\- Even though the price dropped from 1 to 0.75.

This system was chosen so that it's more engaging in each price change, and more strategy is required, compared to simple end state comparison.
