Find the right chain
Practice needs no wallet. Token features use an EVM wallet connected to the network selected by the game. The deployment documented here is BNB Smart Chain Testnet, chain ID 97. Test BNB pays network gas; test WICKB is the game token.
The code also supports BNB mainnet, chain ID 56, but a supported network is not the same as a published mainnet launch. Do not send mainnet assets to testnet or treat a testnet contract address as a mainnet contract.
| Official testnet reference | Address |
|---|---|
| WICKB token | 0x8e02c8edcd5b967b9c26d8c15f3662d2b4f5c17c |
| Wickborn Arena escrow / staking | 0x7c9de701443fba8802a72305ee93d4dfff967b5d |
Three prompts. Three different jobs.
Sign in
A wallet signature proves you control the address for a specific domain, chain, and expiring challenge. This sign-in message does not itself transfer tokens or pay gas.
Approve WICKB when needed
An approval lets the arena transfer a specific token amount. The client requests the required allowance and may reset an insufficient nonzero allowance first. Review the spender, amount, and network.
Submit the arena action
A separate transaction deposits a stake or entry, or performs a withdrawal or refund. This is the action that changes on-chain balances. BNB pays gas.
The game waits for verification before treating a deposit as confirmed. Keep the transaction hash if a connection drops. Trainer can resume pending confirmations; a slow page is not a reason to submit a duplicate deposit.
Getting your coins back
Use Trainer to review staking positions and request a withdrawal once the lock expires. A mature position can also be withdrawn directly by its owner with the contract’s withdraw function. You still need test BNB for gas.
A participant can cancel an unfilled on-chain match after 15 minutes, or a fully funded unsettled match after one day. Once cancelled, each participant can reclaim their own deposited side once. Contract recovery checks elapsed on-chain time; ordinary app cancellations can happen through their own earlier flow.
A paused arena blocks new deposits while withdrawals and refunds remain available. Token and lock duration are immutable in this deployment. Ownership and the authority signer have separate powers described in the next chapter.
