Challengers

Challengers are the simplest Midgard role.

Pick a factory, pay for a run, and try to beat its score. Your risk is capped at the ticket you pay.

How it works

• The factory score is the line you need to beat.
• The ticket is your maximum loss.
• A higher score wins. A tie loses.
• Challenges expire after 2 hours.

You don’t need to manage a bankroll, burn schedule, or leverage position. Just play.

What you pay for

A challenge ticket gives you:

• A fresh game session against the factory’s score
• A fixed payout if you win
• A hard cap on downside if you lose

Ticket cost scales with the factory’s burn rate — more aggressive factories cost more to challenge.

How to pick factories

• Look for scores you believe you can actually beat.
• Compare ticket cost against difficulty.
• Remember that the biggest factories are often the most expensive for a reason.

Who this is for

Challengers want:

• Direct gameplay exposure
• Simple, finite risk
• No ongoing position management
