  · The same rule applies to rival games, but Gold Balls are given instead of Silver Balls and Platinum Balls instead of Gold Balls. 

  · Gold Balls (Platinum Balls) are given in each round based on the highest order of OVR inside the club at the time of matchmaking.

- When the battle is unsuccessful, a -1 debuff is applied to the opposing club member who successfully defends (forfeit and quitting the game don't count). 

- The debuff can stack up to -20, which only applies to the club that has activated the debuff. 

- Even if the battle fails, a certain amount of CP can be obtained (+2 in regular games and +4 in rival games).
