Players across Africa and Mexico, six teams, 21 days, nearly USD 100,000 in prizes and only one champion. Everybody wants that number one spot, but there can only be one. This is the Crash Games World Championship. Lets go! he said.How SportyBets Crash Games World Cup will workPlayers will begin by selecting one of the six ambassadors to represent during the competition. Once confirmed, their selection cannot be changed for the remainder of the tournament.Participants can then play any eligible Crash Game to earn experience points (XP) and improve their positions on the individual leaderboard. Their qualifying gameplay will also contribute to the performance of their chosen ambassadors team.The scoring system will be based on cashout coefficients rather than stake sizes. A 2x cashout, for instance, earns 20 XP before any applicable progression multiplier, while a 10x cashout earns 100 XP. Losing rounds will not attract points.According to SportyBet, only qualifying real-money gameplay will count towards the competition. Manual and automatic cashouts will be treated equally.Players can join at any point during the 21-day tournament, although activity before their entry will not count towards their scores. As they accumulate XP, participants will progress through Crash Levels and be able to track their individual rankings, contributions to their selected teams and overall team standings.USD 5,000 cash prize and USD 1,500 championship ring for winnerSportyBet said 5,000 players would receive a share of nearly USD 100,000 in prizes, including cash, signed merchandise and Free Bets.The overall winner will receive USD 5,000 in cash, a championship ring valued at USD 1,500 and a T-shirt signed by the six ambassadors.The exclusive ring, designed specifically for the inaugural competition, is gold-plated and set with zirconia.
