Learn about the new concept coming to DraftKings Marketplace: Gilded cards.
Seven (7) Gilded Auctions are coming to the DraftKings marketplace. Gilded cards are a new, exciting concept within the Reignmakers universe; the fighter cards being auctioned off will be of the Reignmaker rarity tier and will be playable within the Reignmakers UFC game.
“Gilded” cards provide all the same utility as a normal Reignmakers UFC Fighter Card, but feature a “Gilded strip” on the right side of the card to signify the additional utility associated with the Gilded program (as shown below):
For the seven (7) fighter cards that will be auctioned off beginning on October 22, 2022, associated utility within the cards includes two (2) suite tickets for UFC 281 at Madison Square Garden! For every card won within these seven (7) auctions, a user will earn admission to a UFC 281 suite with a plus-one. Card holders as of the utility snapshot date and time will receive this benefit regardless of whether or not they use the Fighter Card itself in a Reignmakers UFC fantasy contest.
All seven (7) auctions will end on October, 28, 2022. The snapshot for UFC 281 suite utility will be October 31, 2022 at 11:59 a.m. Eastern Prevailing Time (i.e. holders of the seven (7) fighter cards on this date and time will receive the two (2) suite tickets for UFC 281).
Gilded card holders will have continued opportunities to earn unique utility moving forward throughout the remainder of the 2022-23 season, as well!
The UFC 281 Gilded auctions will include the seven (7) ranked fighters from UFC 281: Israel Adesanya, Alex Pereira, Carla Esparza, Zhang Weili, Dustin Poirier, Michael Chandler and Dan Hooker. Like all Reignmaker tier fighter cards, these will all be 1/1s.
Yes, UFC 281 will constitute our first contests within our “Weigh-in” phase. During this phase, only CORE and RARE contests will be available, and REIGNMAKER tier fighter cards are playable in either of those game formats. This “Weigh-in” phase is a sneak peek primarily for our earliest UFC adopters, the Heatwave owners!
The Gilded fighter cards will also be playable in the Reignmakers UFC game until the end of the 2023 season, and Reignmaker tier NFTs include multi-season usability.
UFC 281 contests will be available in the Reignmakers Lobby early in the week leading up to the November 12, 2022 event.
Holders of Heatwave set fighter cards are about to receive an airdrop of the equivalent of a Reignmakers Football Field Pass. The passes will work in an extremely similar fashion to the NFLPA “Field Passes” in providing utility to their holders. Each Heatwave fighter card will receive a pass airdrop of the same rarity tier as their fighter card.
This airdrop will be based on a snapshot of holders after UFC 282, so there is still time to procure a Heatwave NFT for your collection to ensure your spot. As of October 21, 2022, Heatwave Boss packs are still available on the primary market for purchase. Buy one now!
More information on this program will be available after UFC 281.
Stay tuned because we will be announcing more details about our upcoming Reignmakers UFC game on November 1, 2022.
