# Game modes

There are **two game modes** In Fight League; **Standard and Arena.** Both options offer casual and ranked options. 

* **Casual (free-to-play).** Players can join instantly, enjoy the game, and sharpen their skills, with the potential to earn off-chain, basic rarity NFT fighters and power cards.
* **Ranked (pay-to-play).** Players can enter the battle by buying a ticket, and have a chance to win higher rarity NFT fighters/power cards and USDC from prize pools depending on the outcome of the game. This mode is more precise in terms of matchmaking, as it uses Matchmaking Rating (MMR). 

**Fight League provides an enjoyable and skill-based gaming experience that is comprehensive and balanced for both Casual and Ranked modes. It encourages players to explore the full potential of the game and have a great time doing so**
