# Challenge Mode

![](/files/8N2WlyaI7VZ97aO5LnG8)

With this mode, players can challenge another player directly in 2 ways: **Direct Challenge**, or **Same Deck Challenge**. To participate in the challenge, both players will have to pay an entry fee of **eCGC**, and the winners will take the reward based on that amount of **eCGC**, after subtracting a small fee. 

This mode will encourage players to better customize their decks and polish their skills against their friends.

| Challenges Entry Fee | Rewards for Winner |
| -------------------- | ------------------ |
| 200 eCGC             | 350 eCGC           |
| 500 eCGC             | 900 eCGC           |
| 1000 eCGC            | 1800 eCGC          |
