Season 4

Season 4 marks the final competitive phase before the next era of Anichess begins. All player ratings have been reset, offering a fresh start to climb the ranks under the Glicko-2 system (displayed simply as “Rating”).

This season introduces updated mechanics for earning M8 — your onchain activity record. M8 is earned through daily Quick and Ranked matches, scaling based on consistency and performance. The more you play and win, the more you earn.

Your M8 and Rating both contribute to Season 4’s Leaderboards:

• Rating Leaderboard: Tracks competitive skill

• M8 Leaderboard: Rewards daily activity

At season’s end, the Top 64 by Rating qualify for the Season 4 Playoffs, competing for a $10,000 prize pool in $C.
