# Arena

In the Arena you can choose up to eight of your Knights to fight against another player. The aim is to destroy all the opponents Knights by moving across the board and attacking.

On each turn, you can move three Knights.

Both players need to stake an equal amount of Polygon's $MATIC token into the game for the winner to claim.

There are different Knights available with different strengths, and Knights can be upgraded from level 1-3 with $SILVER.

You can Host your own match where you choose the amount of $MATIC to stake, and what type of opponent can join.

If you join an existing arena match, you will have to stake an equal amount of $MATIC as the host of the game.

When joining a game, you will be able to see how many Knights the host has entered and what level they are, but not the exact type of them.

{% hint style="info" %}
If any player doesn't move within 36 hours, the opponent can claim a forfeit and win the game.
{% endhint %}

A tax of 6% is applied when staking $MATIC (see [Tokenomics](/knights-kingdom-whitepaper/knights-kingdom/tokenomics.md)).

Our native token $SILVER is also rewarded on winning a game. The amount of $SILVER won is based on the amount of $MATIC staked at a rate of 2%.

If you lose a game, you can still claim 2% of your $MATIC stake back, and even a little $SILVER (.25% of $MATIC staked).
