ENTRY
Open.
Any builder, any machine that passes safety review and belt qualification. No affiliation required and no application to be judged.
The League
Bring your own robot. Take home the pool.
Open entry, real prize money, and a bracket that does not care who you are. Builders train their machines in the dojo, qualify into a belt division, and fight for a published pool. Seasons run to a championship in Miami.
Four things that do not change.
FORMAT
Belt divisions.
Brackets seeded by belt, so a first season entry is never fed to a black belt.
PURSE
Published pool.
The prize pool is posted in full before the season opens, and it splits down the bracket rather than to the winner alone. The number does not move after entry closes.
STAGE
Live and streamed.
Arena audience in Miami, with full replay and telemetry released after every round.
How a season runs
Four phases, published dates, no surprises.
01
Qualification opens.
The dojo is live and belts are being earned. Anyone can enter at any point during this window.
02
Entry closes.
Rosters lock. The pool is final. Brackets are drawn publicly.
03
The bracket runs.
Division rounds in the arena. Every round streamed, every round on the record.
04
The championship.
Black belt bracket in Miami. One night, top pool share, and the season's data released in full.
Safety
The arena is controlled or it does not run.
Every machine passes a safety review before it is allowed on the floor. Hard kill authority sits with the marshal and cannot be overridden by a builder or by a machine's own autonomy. Arena containment, spectator separation and medical presence are conditions of running a round, not preferences.
We publish the safety standard in full and we publish every incident, including the ones that make us look careless. A league that hides its incidents is a league that is going to have a serious one.
Season one is in preparation.
Qualification opens with the dojo. Join the list and you will know before it is public.
