🥊 Knockout — How It Works

Knockout is a special tournament mode in Solitaire Social featuring a fast-paced elimination format with exclusive rewards. It is available to players who have won at least 10 tournaments.

🔁 Format & Stages

Knockout is made up of 3 elimination tournaments:

• 4 players compete with the same layout.

• Each round, the lowest scoring player is eliminated.

• Win 3 rounds in a row to claim the final prize — a chest with 3 rewards.

• The event runs for 3–5 days.

🎟️ Entry Requirements

To participate, you need 1 Knockout ticket. Here’s how to get one:

• Free at the start of the event

• Ask a friend (1 ticket per day)

• Win it in other game events

• Buy with location coins

❗ You can only hold 1 ticket at a time.

If you don’t have a ticket, you can start with 100 coins (or 10 during promotions).

🏆 How to Win

• Score more points than your opponents in each tournament.

• Win 3 tournaments in a row to receive the final prize chest.

💡 You can pause between rounds and resume later.

If you lose at any stage, you return to the beginning and need a new ticket or coins. You can save progress after a loss (Stage 2 or 3) by spending Magic.

⚔️ Tournament Scoring

You score points by:

• +1 for each card sent to home

• +1 bonus for being first to send any card

• +50 bonus for being first to send the 4th king

👑 The round ends when:

• Someone sends all kings home

• A player clicks “New Game” — triggering a 2-minute countdown

Winner is decided by:

1. First to send all cards

2. Highest score

3. Who clicked “New Game” first (if tied)

4. Most cards in home

5. Who placed last card first

✨ Spells in Knockout

• Freeze affects all other players unless they have Freeze Shield.

• Freeze can be countered or re-applied (timer resets to 20s).

• Joker and Shuffle work as usual.

• Spells become more strategic in Knockout due to fewer players and elimination rounds.

🌟 Knockout Stars & Rewards

• In each tournament, earn 1 to 3 stars for reaching rounds with all kings.

• Stars fill a progress bar with milestone rewards.

• Rewards include: Spells, Magic, Coins

• The progress bar resets after each reward is claimed and continues to the next level.

🏅 Knockout Leaderboard

• You compete globally with all players.

• Leaderboard points are earned for tournament wins in Knockout mode.

• Top positions receive Magic as leaderboard rewards.
