Penalty Shootout — Online Prediction Tournament

Call GOAL or SAVE every round, outlast the field, and win the crypto prize pool — a skill-and-prediction game, not a spin-the-wheel casino mechanic.

What is Penalty Shootout?

Penalty Shootout is one of Knockout.Global's prediction tournament game modes. Instead of flipping a coin or calling a card colour, you're reading a striker stepping up to the spot: will the keeper be beaten, or does he pull off the save? Every round you lock in one binary call — GOAL or SAVE — before the timer runs out.

It's built for the same online penalty shootout game fans who'd normally play a football prediction pool, but run as a live, provably-fair elimination tournament with a real crypto prize pool on the line — not a slot machine, not a house-edge casino game.

How a Round Works: GOAL or SAVE

O batedor se prepara. Vai ser gol ou o goleiro defende? Escolha GOL ou DEFESA — acerte para avançar.

GOL — the striker beats the keepervsDEFESA — the keeper gets a hand to it

Every round is a fresh 50/50 call, resolved by a hardware-seeded, provably-fair random outcome — the outcome is never influenced by anyone's prediction history, streak, or stake size.

Penalty Shootout Tournament Format

Cada torneio consiste em várias rodadas. Em cada rodada, você deve fazer uma previsão binária. Se sua previsão estiver correta, você avança para a próxima rodada. Caso contrário, é eliminado.

O torneio continua até restar apenas um jogador. Esse jogador leva o prêmio! Se vários jogadores permanecerem após um número definido de rodadas, o prêmio é dividido igualmente.

Penalty Shootout tournaments run as Quick Fire (fast, a few minutes), Daily Showdown, and High Roller formats — pick the pace and stakes that suit you, or join for free in Ghost Mode.

Provably Fair — Every Call, Verifiable

Every GOAL/SAVE outcome is generated with hardware-seeded RNG and a SHA-256 commitment published before the round opens, so no one — including us — can know or change the result once predictions are locked in. After the round resolves, you can independently verify the outcome yourself.
