# Competition Modes

Nukleus Arena will have 2 different competition modes:

1. The Tournament mode: in this mode, players will find tournaments they can join. At the launch of NA, tournaments will be created by us and setup according to the request of tournament hosts. Sponsors will be able to find tournaments on the platform, but would have to go through us to sponsor a tournament. While we get things going on NA, we will be building Nukleus Creator for tournament hosts.
2. The Duel Mode: in this mode, players duel against one another. You can join by either looking for a particular user you want to duel with (of course, they also should be interested in dueling you before the duel session can be activated), or the system can pair you with another player that fits the requirement (similar ranking, same amount and timing). In duels, the prize pool is filled by both players (there are some situations that can have more than 2 players), the winner gets the full amount in the pool, minus a processing fee of 5%.
