Watching live
Follow the arena as a spectator without a wallet connection.
Open a live arena#
Use Watch live on the home cabinet or Live in the navigation. Select a current match to follow its score and court. You do not need a passkey just to watch.
The match header labels the view as SPECTATOR VIEW. It shows the mode and whether the match is ranked or friendly. If a player has a public username, that name replaces the shortened address in the scoreboard.
Read the action#
Spectators receive network snapshots and see a rendered preview between confirmations. The contracts still determine impacts and points. LIVE PREVIEW, AWAITING IMPACT CONFIRMATION or SYNCING / PREVIEW PAUSED describe the display's relationship to confirmed state.
In Chaos, the rally banner shows each paddle's size and whether the match is in intermission. A betting-induced handicap changes the next rally, not the current collision.
At a confirmed result, spectators see a neutral winner announcement rather than a personal VICTORY or DEFEAT celebration.
Support a player#
Eligible spectators can connect a passkey and use the match's market. Review the cost and potential payout before approving any test-MON spend. A participant's account cannot bet on its own game. Learn about betting.
When the feed pauses#
An empty Live list means there are no listed active matches. If the feed disconnects, wait for reconnection and a fresh snapshot. The visual pause does not establish that the onchain game paused. After completion, the result remains available; a replay is available only while it satisfies the retention policy.
