Inside Outcome

What it is

A Showdown pits two players against each other in a head-to-head match. The matchmaker pairs them — by skill, by request, or by a private invite — and the match goes live for an audience. Markets open as soon as the bracket locks in.

Showdowns range from short fighting-game sets to longer competitive-shooter ladders to bespoke creator-versus-creator challenges. Whatever the format, the structure is the same: two sides, one winner, a window to call it.

How a Showdown plays out

1. Match is matched. The two players are paired and a Showdown is announced.
2. Pre-match window opens. Markets go live. Viewers see both sides, recent form, and current standings.
3. Match goes live. The PC companion streams gameplay from each player's source into the iOS feed.
4. Markets move with the action. Round-by-round formats settle on individual rounds; best-of-N formats settle on the overall result.
5. Settlement. Once the match ends, markets settle automatically and results land in your portfolio.

Where to find it

Showdowns surface in the Live feed when a match is going up, and live under Showdowns in the iOS app. Past matches and your call history live in Portfolio.

What it is

Where Showdowns are about who wins, Solo Live is about what happens next. Markets are built around the moments in a stream — winning the round, hitting a milestone, surviving a stretch, finishing a challenge.

The streamer goes live with the companion bridging their PC to Outcome. Viewers watching from their iPhone see live markets alongside the stream and call them in real time.

How a Solo Live session plays out

1. Creator goes live. The companion pairs with the creator's iPhone and streams into Outcome.
2. Markets generate from stream context. What game is being played, what mode, what the creator is going for.
3. Viewers call them in-stream. Tap a market on your phone while watching — no friction, no app switching.
4. Settlement happens as moments resolve. Round won, run finished, milestone hit. Markets close, results post.

Where to find it

Solo Live sessions surface in the home feed when creators you follow go live, and in Live across the rest of the platform. Your own creator dashboard lives in Dashboard once you've paired the companion.

What it is

Esports Markets are the largest-event layer. Outcome pulls in real esports schedules — major leagues, tournament brackets, head-to-head pro matchups — and opens markets that follow the broadcast as it happens.

The framing is second-screen: you're watching the match on your usual stream or broadcast, and Outcome on your phone gives you something to do besides scroll. Markets settle on match results, series outcomes, and event-level milestones.

How an esports session plays out

1. Event surfaces on Outcome. The schedule is pulled from real esports calendars; the broadcast link is attached.
2. Markets open with the broadcast. Pre-match, mid-match, series-level — all clearly labeled.
3. Predict alongside the broadcast. Watch on your usual feed, call markets from your phone.
4. Settle on the official result. Once the match concludes, markets settle against the public outcome.

Where to find it

Esports surfaces in Watch, in the home feed during live events, and in the markets section under Esports. Filter by game, league, or tournament.

Diamonds — the in-app currency

Diamonds are how participation works inside Outcome. Earn them through activity in the app and through tournaments and events. Spend them inside markets, on gifts to creators, and on profile customization.

Diamonds are the everyday unit of activity. You don't need to think about them as anything more than a balance — they show up in your wallet header and move with you across every format.

Send a tip, support a creator

When you're in a Solo Live or Showdown stream, diamonds let you send gifts to the creators you're watching. Gifts show up live in the stream and on the creator's dashboard. It's the simplest way to back the people you watch most.

Bring your own wallet

For users who want to manage their balance outside the app, Outcome supports connecting an existing wallet. Link it once — you choose when and how to interact with it. If you only want to use Outcome inside the app, you never have to think about the wallet at all.

Wallet connection is optional. Most viewers will never need it. It's there for users who want it.

Where to find it

Your wallet lives in Wallet in the iOS app. The diamond balance is visible from any market or live screen. Gifting surfaces inside the live stream itself.
