In The Reveal competition, there are two main paths to victory: the Championship and the Tournaments.
Think of the Championship as a marathon: it’s the general leaderboard based on consistency and the total Gems accumulated throughout the entire competition. The Tournaments, on the other hand, are competitive, theme-based sprints held every two weeks, offering access to exclusive prizes through a ticket lottery.
While the leaderboard rewards endurance, Tournaments reward strategy and speed. Crucially, everything resets each time. In this article, we’ll uncover the new Ticket allocation system, how to enter Tournaments, and why every single Gem counts more than ever before.
Tournament Dates: Six Chances to Win
Each Tournament lasts for a fortnight (two weeks). In total, there are six Tournaments:
- Tournament 1: 9 December – 23 December 2025
- Tournament 2: 23 December – 6 January 2026
- Tournament 3: 6 January – 20 January 2026
- Tournament 4: 20 January – 3 February 2026
- Tournament 5: 3 February – 17 February 2026
- Tournament 6: 17 February – 10 March 2026
Each Tournament has its own prize draw with different prizes. All draws will take place collectively after 10 March 2026, in the presence of a notary.
How Do Tickets Work? The “Tiered” System
In The Reveal, the ticket allocation system has been designed to be fairer and more dynamic. The principle is simple: starting is effortless, but reaching the summit requires dedication.
Here is how the Tier System works:
- Sprint Start (Tier 1): For your first tickets, you only need 30 Gems! This allows you to jump straight into the competition and rack up your first chances to win very quickly (valid up to 500 accumulated Gems).
- Standard Phase (Tier 2): Once you pass the first threshold, the cost stabilises at 100 Gems per ticket (from 501 to 1,500 Gems).
- Advanced Phase (Tier 3): If you keep pushing, the game gets tougher. The cost rises to 200 Gems per ticket (from 1,501 to 3,000 Gems).
- Elite Phase (Tier 4): For the true “serial accumulators” who surpass 3,000 Gems, each ticket will cost 300 Gems.
This system is designed to give everyone a concrete chance of winning. With the initial cost reduced to 30 Gems, anyone can secure a decent number of tickets with just a few quests. At the same time, heavy hitters will still have more chances, but without monopolising the entire lottery, ensuring a more balanced competition.
Golden Rules for Tickets:
- Total Reset: Tickets and Tiers reset at the end of every Tournament. If you finish a Tournament in “Tier 3”, you will start the next Tournament back at “Tier 1” (30 Gems per ticket).
- Validity: Tickets are only valid for the prize draw of the specific Tournament in which you earned them.
- Probability: The more tickets you hold in a single Tournament, the higher your mathematical probability of being drawn.
To track your progress and see how many Gems you need for your next ticket, check the progress bar in the “Your Tournaments” section of the app.
Timed Quests: Fuel for Your Tickets
Every Tournament is brought to life by timed quests. These quests can be daily or weekly and may change throughout the two weeks.
With the tiered system, completing the early quests is vital: the Gems you earn immediately are “worth more” in terms of tickets than those earned later on!
Warning: Most quests require manual claiming. If you forget to confirm them, you won’t receive the Gems, and you’ll miss the chance to get tickets.
YNG Hodler Boost: The Strategic Advantage
Inside the Tournaments section, you’ll also find the YNG Hodler category, designed for those holding the YNG token in their main Wallet on the Young Platform.
Every week, based on the amount of YNG you hold, you automatically receive an extra Gem bonus. These Gems are added to those from quests, allowing you to get extra tickets with no additional effort. It starts at Level 1 with 100 YNG held.
Remember that your level is updated weekly: you can move up (if you buy YNG) or down (if you sell or transfer YNG).
Surprise Prizes: The Reveal
As the name suggests, mystery is part of the game. Each Tournament has a different theme and unique prizes that are revealed only the day before the Tournament starts on our official channels:
- Young Platform Instagram Profile
- X Profile (formerly Twitter)
- Official Blog
Following our social channels is essential to discover in advance whether the week’s theme is the right fit for you (Gaming? Travel? Tech?) and to get ready to sprint out of the gate.
Tournament or Championship? Both.
The Reveal Tournaments and the Championship run in parallel. The Gems you collect have a double value:
- They help you climb the general leaderboard of the Championship.
- They are converted into tickets for the active Tournament lottery (according to the tiered system).
A completed quest brings you closer to the final leaderboard prizes and the bi-weekly Tournament prizes simultaneously.
Good luck with The Reveal!
