Closed beta, waitlist open
arkd: the tournament platform for fighting game players and organisers
Enter the bracket. Climb the ladder.
Run the whole night.
arkd is where fighting game players find locals, check in and track their rating game by game, and where TOs run brackets, stations and results from one console.
Everything from registration to grand finals
One app for the people entering the bracket and the people running it. Each feature is tagged with who it is built for.
- For Everyone
Brackets
Single and double elimination, round robin and Swiss. Seeding, byes and grand final resets are handled for you.
- For Players
Events & check-in
Find locals near you, register in a tap, and check in from your phone when doors open.
- For Players
Per-game ELO
A separate rating for every game you enter, updated after every set. Your Tekken rank never drags down your Street Fighter one.
- For Players
Achievements & leaderboards
Earn XP and badges for showing up, upsets and run-backs. See who is on top of your scene this season.
- For Players
Match chat
Message your opponent, agree on a station and report the score together without hunting down the TO.
- For Everyone
Spectator mode
Follow any bracket live. Sets update as they are reported, so you know when your friend is up.
- For Players
Wallet & prizes
Pay entry fees and track prize payouts in one place, with a record of every event you have cashed at.
- For Organisers
TO Console
Run the whole event from one screen: check-ins, stations, called matches, disputes, DQs and final results.
For tournament organisers
Run your local without the spreadsheet
The TO Console keeps check-in, stations, disputes and results on one screen, and every player sees the same bracket on their phone. Here is how a weekly goes.
Doors open
Players check in from their phones. You watch the count climb instead of reading names off a sheet.
Bracket locks
No-shows drop out, seeding is applied from per-game ratings, and the bracket publishes itself.
Matches get called
Assign a set to a station and both players get a notification. Scores come back through match chat.
Results go out
Placings, rating changes and payouts post the moment the last set is reported.
