Pick your
battle scenario
Whatever side you’re on — a charity, a brand, a sports club, a fandom or a creator — there is a fan-battle format that fits. Below you’ll find concrete plans, from zero-budget demo events to full multi-channel campaigns.

First time? Start with a demo battle.
For new clients we always offer the simplest possible format first — a low- or zero-budget battle that requires no production cost and carries no real risk. Treat it as your demo event: see the mechanics live, get the data, then scale up.
Charitable organisations
Visibility, transparency, and real impact — backed by competitive engagement, not pity-driven banners.
There are two ways a charitable organisation or foundation (CO/CF) can take part in a fan battle on 6-9.SPACE: as the sponsor of someone else’s event, or as one of the two sides itself.
- 01
Plan 1 — Charity-sponsored battle
A battle is run between brands, sports clubs or creators while a charitable organisation acts as its sponsor. The sponsorship is announced inside the event description, the CO/CF is pinned as a sponsor, and the rules clearly state the percentage of the Gold Bank that is allocated to the cause. The charity gains broad visibility; transparency is guaranteed by a public post-event report. Optional but recommended: media support from the charity’s own channels (a post or a repost of ready-made creatives).
- 02
Plan 2 — Charity vs charity battle
A direct battle between two charitable organisations / foundations. Mechanics are identical to brand or creator battles (Plans 1–4 in the Brands section), so you can pick the budget and the level of media support you’re comfortable with — from a simple announcement post to a full announcement-and-creatives campaign.
Charity use cases never carry a commercial framing. The message is always public and human: do good, and let the audience help decide who’s loudest about it.
Brands & businesses
Native reach that converts — pick a battle format that matches your appetite for risk and budget.
This category includes commercial brands, businesses, and any well-known organisations that have effectively become brands themselves — media outlets, artists, musicians, DJs, educational institutions, scientific communities, etc. The only thing it doesn’t cover is fan or community formations — those go to the Communities section.
- 01
Plan 1 — Simple online clash
The most basic case: a one-off online clash between two brands or businesses, related or not (Coca-Cola vs Pepsi style). Brands provide media support only — a single post or repost of the ready-made event creative on their own social channels. No additional production, no extra budget required.
- 02
Plan 2 — Pre-announcement campaign
Same as Plan 1, plus an announcement phase: a preview of the upcoming battle is published in advance, and one or more warm-up creatives are released to heat up the audience before the main event goes live.
- 03
Plan 3 — With prizes for voters
Builds on Plan 1 or Plan 2 by adding real prizes from the participating brands for the voters. Prizes are won by the winning side via an internal raffle (rules published in the event description and the event is marked with a “prize” tag). Draw → both sides win the prize. Eligibility for the raffle requires at least one gold vote — i.e. a contribution to the Gold Bank — plus a real email and phone number from the voter, which makes this a high-quality lead-gen channel for the brand.
- 04
Plan 4 — Full multi-channel campaign
Combines any of Plans 1–3 with paid external promotion: dedicated ad placements on third-party blogger channels, partner media outlets, or via the platform’s own internal social ad system. This is the format for brands who want to maximise reach beyond the organic 6-9.SPACE audience.
All plans automatically include distribution of the event (and announcement) inside 6-9.SPACE’s own social channels and affiliated media partners.
Sports organisations & clubs
Run an audience-choice battle in parallel with real sports events — or stand-alone, club vs club, with no calendar dependency.
The case scenarios largely mirror the Brands section but adapt to sports specifics: events can be tied to real championships, leagues, matches, tournaments, Olympic games and other live competitions of any scale, or run completely independently. They work great as audience-loyalty events and audience-choice prize formats. Important: organised fan communities are NOT in scope here — they have their own dedicated section.
- 01
Plan 1 — Simple sports clash
A one-off online clash between two sports clubs or organisations, with media support handled via simple posts/reposts of the ready-made creative. Can run during the live season, the off-season, or attached to a specific upcoming match — your choice.
- 02
Plan 2 — Pre-announcement around a real event
Same as Plan 1, plus an announcement phase tied to an upcoming real sports event (a championship round, a derby, a final). Pre-event creatives heat up the rivalry; the actual battle launches alongside the real fixture and runs in parallel to it.
- 03
Plan 3 — Audience-choice prize battle
Builds on Plans 1 or 2 by adding prizes from the clubs / sponsors for voters. The winning side’s fans become eligible for an internal raffle (gold vote required → real email + phone). In a draw, both fan sides receive the prize. This is the “audience-choice award” format — completely independent of the actual scoreboard on the pitch.
- 04
Plan 4 — Full multi-channel sports campaign
Plans 1–3 plus paid external promotion: ads on third-party sports bloggers, partner sports media, or the platform’s internal ad inventory. Use this when the underlying real-world event has high public interest and you want to amplify the parallel fan battle accordingly.
Sports plans can optionally be tied to a charitable organisation or fund, in which case Charity Plan 1 mechanics apply on top.
Communities, fandoms & fan organisations
Whenever two fan camps collide — gaming, music, sports, lifestyle — there is a battle waiting to happen.
Communities, fan communities, fandoms, fraternities and sororities are all treated as a single category. Mechanics combine the brands and sports playbooks but with a heavily emphasised social and fan dimension. Battles can be tied to any kind of community-relevant event, on any scale: gaming communities, fans of public figures, sports fans, lifestyle subcultures — including head-to-head formats between communities of opposite or similar interests.
- 01
Plan 1 — Simple fandom clash
A one-off online clash between two communities (e.g. CS:GO vs Valorant, Beyoncé fans vs Taylor Swift fans). Media support is handled via posts/reposts of the ready-made creative inside community channels. No production cost.
- 02
Plan 2 — Pre-announcement around a fandom event
Same as Plan 1, plus an announcement phase tied to a community-relevant moment — a release date, a tournament, an album drop, a convention. Warm-up creatives build hype across both communities before the main battle goes live.
- 03
Plan 3 — Battle with prizes for the winning fandom
Builds on Plans 1 or 2 with real prizes from sponsors (which, in this category, are often other 6-9.SPACE participants — brands, creators, etc.) for the winning side’s voters. Internal raffle, gold vote requirement, real contact data — the whole 6-9.SPACE prize mechanic.
- 04
Plan 4 — Full multi-channel fandom campaign
Plans 1–3 plus paid promotion across third-party community bloggers, fan media, or the platform’s internal ad system. The format of choice for high-stakes fandom rivalries with serious cultural momentum behind them.
Sponsors for community battles can be drawn from any other 6-9.SPACE participant category — most often brands or creators with audience overlap.
Influencers & creators
Turn creator rivalry into a screaming, profitable online event — your audience fights for you, the numbers go up, and everyone talks about it.
The defining specifics here: battles are run between two creators / influencers of any scale, including well-known personalities. Brands and other interested categories can participate as sponsors — covering both the production cost of involving high-profile names and the prizes — but this is fully optional.
- 01
Plan 1 — Simple creator clash
The most basic case: a head-to-head clash between two creators with mutual posts/reposts of the ready-made creative on their own pages. No additional production, no extra budget required.
- 02
Plan 2 — Pre-announcement campaign
Same as Plan 1, plus an announcement phase — a preview teaser plus warm-up creatives released across both creators’ channels in advance of the main battle.
- 03
Plan 3 — With prizes for voters
Builds on Plan 1 or Plan 2 by adding real prizes from sponsoring brands (or directly from the creators) for the voters. Internal raffle on the winning side, gold vote requirement, real contact data — high-quality lead-gen channel attached to the engagement spike.
- 04
Plan 4 — Full multi-channel campaign
Plans 1–3 plus paid external promotion: dedicated ads on third-party blogger channels, partner media outlets, or the platform’s internal ad system. The go-to format for creator rivalries that already carry serious public attention.
All distribution inside 6-9.SPACE’s own social channels and affiliated media partners is included by default in every plan.
