- Enter on the battle page (or through your invitation link). You need a signed Dancer Agreement.
- Upload your qualifier video (portrait, about 1 minute) or paste a YouTube / TikTok / Instagram link.
- Scoring: invited judges (RetLabel artists, partners, promoters, curators) score 1–10; the public votes (1 vote per account, accounts older than 7 days). The total is 70% judges, 30% public.
- The best entries go into the bracket (Top 16 / 8 / 4) and battle live in the show.
- Live: about an hour before, start a live on your own YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, Instagram or Twitch and add the link on the live show page. The control room puts you on air.
- Prizes: 50% of the ticket sales is the prize pool (60 / 25 / 15% for places 1–3 by default), paid into your RetLabel wallet.
Tip: YouTube Unlisted lives work best: they play inside the show. TikTok and Instagram do not allow their lives on other sites, so viewers get a button that opens your live.
