# Game Modes

After a few casual matches to get acquainted with the game's mechanics, character abilities, and maps, players might feel ready to start placing bets on their games. In these matches, your team will need to collect tokens from vaults and transport them to extraction points, defending them during extraction. The team with the most tokens when the timer runs out wins.

**Casual Mode**\
Casual mode provides a beginner-friendly environment to practice before diving into Ranked play. You'll join a team of three in a 3v3v3 battle against other teams. In Casual mode, players can use Lumen, the off-chain virtual currency, to place wagers against other teams.

**Ranked Mode**\
Compete for real money in high-stakes 3v3v3 battles against two other teams. Players can purchase Radiant from the launcher to enter these intense matches, with the opportunity to win big rewards.
