### In-game Bat Logic

All users will be given default, non-NFT bats to play matches. However, users will need to play with [**MCL Signed Bats**](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-signed-bats) **or** [**MCL Crypto Bats**](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-crypto-bats) if they need to enhance the gameplay**.**

In case the user has an [**MCL Signed Dual Bat**](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-signed-bats) **or** [**MCL Crypto Dual Bat**](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-crypto-bats/mcl-crypto-bats-phase-1/dual-bats/mcl-dual-crypto-bats-unique), the bat with the highest power will be used in the match.

To understand the difference between [**MCL Signed Bats**](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-signed-bats), [**MCL Crypto Bats**](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-crypto-bats), and Non-NFT Bats, refer to the following section.

### MCL Signed Bat NFTs versus MCL Crypto Bat NFTs versus Non-NFT Bats

#### **Wicket (Negative Runs)**

Users will receive negative runs for every wicket they lose. The negative runs received will be determined by the type of bat they hold.

<table><thead><tr><th width="272">Bat Category</th><th width="256" align="center">Negative Runs Received</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Dual Signed - Immortal</td><td align="center">0</td></tr><tr><td>Dual Signed - Ultra Rare</td><td align="center">-1</td></tr><tr><td>Dual Crypto - Unique</td><td align="center">-1</td></tr><tr><td>Single Signed - Immortal</td><td align="center">0</td></tr><tr><td>Single Signed - Ultra Rare</td><td align="center">-2</td></tr><tr><td>Single Crypto - Unique</td><td align="center">-2</td></tr><tr><td>Single Signed - Super Rare</td><td align="center">-3</td></tr><tr><td>Single Crypto - Premium</td><td align="center">-3</td></tr><tr><td>Single Signed - Rare</td><td align="center">-4</td></tr><tr><td>Single Crypto - Superior</td><td align="center">-4</td></tr><tr><td>Single Crypto - Standard</td><td align="center">-5</td></tr><tr><td>Default, Non-NFT</td><td align="center">-6</td></tr></tbody></table>

> *For example, Alice uses a Single Ultra Rare MCL Signed Bat, while Bob uses the default bat. In case of a wicket, Alice will get -2 negative runs, while, in the same scenario, Bob will get -6 negative runs.*

#### **2X Runs Power Up**

Users will also receive a fixed amount of 2x Runs Power Up, based on the bat's category. Non-NFT default bats do not have this advantage. When users utilize this power up, they will score double runs on that particular ball. This power up resets in every match.

<table><thead><tr><th width="270.91797556719024">Bat Category</th><th>2x Runs Power Up per Match</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Dual Signed - Immortal</td><td>3</td></tr><tr><td>Dual Signed - Ultra Rare</td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td>Dual Crypto - Unique</td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td>Single Signed - Immortal</td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td>Single Signed - Ultra Rare</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Single Crypto - Unique</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Single Crypto - Premium</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Single Signed - Super Rare</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Single Crypto - Superior</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Single Signed - Rare</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Single Crypto - Standard</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Default, Non-NFT</td><td>None</td></tr></tbody></table>

> *For example, Carlos uses a Single Super Rare MCL Signed Bat, which gives him one 2x Runs Power Up. In a match, he uses this power up when hitting a 6, as a result he scores 12 runs on that ball.*

#### **Swipe Angle Deviation**

All bats — NFT and Non-NFT, have a swipe angle deviation factor that impacts the shot accuracy. The lower the swipe angle deviation, the higher the user's shot accuracy. [**MCL Signed Bats** ](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-signed-bats)and [**MCL Crypto Bats**](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-crypto-bats) have lower swipe angle deviation when compared to default, non-NFT bats.

| Bat Category               | Swipe Angle Deviation |
| -------------------------- | --------------------- |
| Dual Signed  - Immortal    | 0°                    |
| Dual Signed - Ultra Rare   | 5°                    |
| Dual Crypto - Unique       | 5°                    |
| Single Signed - Immortal   | 0°                    |
| Single Signed - Ultra Rare | 10° + ((95-*x*)/2)°   |
| Single Crypto - Unique     | 10° + ((95-x)/2)°     |
| Single Crypto - Premium    | 15° + ((85-x)/2)°     |
| Single Signed - Super Rare | 15° + ((85-*x*)/2)°   |
| Single Crypto - Superior   | 20° + ((65-x)/2)°     |
| Single Signed - Rare       | 20° + ((65-*x*)/2)°   |
| Single Crypto - Standard   | 32° + ((50-x)/2)°     |
| Default, Non-NFT           | 40°                   |

> *For example, Dan has a Single Rare MCL Signed Bat with 51 power, while Erin uses a default, non-NFT bat. When playing, Dan will enjoy better batting accuracy with a swipe angle deviation of 27°, which is derived from:*

> *In this case, Dan's swipe angle deviation is 27° (-13.5°/+13.5°) and he hits the ball at a 45° angle. Thus, his accuracy will be anywhere between 58.5° and 31.5°. This allows Dan to hit the ball in-between fielders or take advantage of open spaces.*

> *In comparison, Erin's default bat gives her a swipe angle deviation of 40° (-20°/+20°). This means that if Erin hits the ball at a 45° angle, her accuracy will be anywhere between 65° and 25°. Erin will not be able to take advantage of the field.*

#### **Sixes Distance**

Users who use the [**MCL Signed Bats** ](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-signed-bats)and [**MCL Crypto Bats**](https://mcl-wp.jump.trade/marketplace/nfts/mcl-crypto-bats) will hit longer sixes depending on the category of the bat. In the near future, we are planning to bring more use cases for six distances in the MCL game.

| Bat Category               | Sixes Distance |
| -------------------------- | -------------- |
| Dual Signed  - Immortal    | 65 m - 90 m    |
| Dual Signed - Ultra Rare   | 65 m - 90 m    |
| Dual Crypto - Unique       | 80 m - 120 m   |
| Single Signed - Immortal   | 65 m - 90 m    |
| Single Signed - Ultra Rare | 65 m - 90 m    |
| Single Crypto - Unique     | 80 m - 120 m   |
| Single Crypto - Premium    | 80 m - 110 m   |
| Single Signed - Super Rare | 65 m - 90 m    |
| Single Crypto - Superior   | 80 m - 100 m   |
| Single Signed - Rare       | 65 m - 90 m    |
| Single Crypto - Standard   | 75 m - 95 m    |
| Default, Non-NFT           | 65 m - 75 m    |
