Rise of the Champions: the new Web3 tournament with $7,500 from Intraverse and Dawnshard

The Web3 world is getting ready for a new competitive event. Intraverse and Dawnshard have announced Rise of the Champions, a free tournament with a $7,500 prize pool that will take place on Sei Network.

The event marks a new stage for both platforms, aiming to unite communities, games, and technologies in one shared space.

Intraverse: a platform that connects Web3 communities

Intraverse is a Web3 gaming platform created to bring together NFT projects, metaverses, and blockchain communities through tournaments, missions, and digital events. Its concept is based on using customizable 3D avatars, linked to existing NFT collections, to represent each player within the games.

Supported by OVioHQ and collaborations with Polygon and the BAYC Council, Intraverse has grown quickly. It has already surpassed 123,000 game sessions, reached over 7 million impressions on social media, and recently achieved 11 million transactions on Somnia Network in a single week.

 

Dawnshard: strategy and blockchain in one game

Dawnshard is a trading card game (TCG) built on Sei Network, offering a different approach to the genre: decks are generated using artificial intelligence.

Each player can create unique strategies and adapt them based on opponents or tournament conditions. The game’s motto, “Own your strategy”, captures its core idea: player skill determines the outcome, not just the cards.

Thanks to its accessible gameplay and blockchain integration, Dawnshard has built a strong base within the Web3 community, standing out as one of the most active TCGs on Sei Network.
