How to run Social Play Events:

  • Schedule events using the Social Play tournament type in GEM. Format should be Ultimate Pit Fight
  • Use the Open Play feature to make it a player list only event.
  • Record the details of all players participating
  • Social Play events are recommended to be run on a casual, pod on demand basis.
  • Pods and pairing/rounds will need to be run manually outside of the GEM software.
  • Stores may choose to run a more structured Ultimate Pit Fight event if they choose, see the Ultimate Pit Fight format page for more details.

Social Play events are also the perfect opportunity to try out the new Ultimate Pit Fight Draft format introduced alongside the release of Heavy Hitters!

  • Schedule your Social Play event in GEM as above
  • Seat players into draft pods and run a Heavy Hitters draft
  • Split the players into 4 person UPF Pods
  • The winner of each pod then play in a 1 v1 finals match!

  • Stores may only receive 1 of a specific Social Play Kit
  • Over time some stores may get a second chance to receive each of the Social Play Kits, based on their event history but this is not guaranteed.
