# Point tables

# Point Tables

Your point table defines how scores are calculated in your tournament. It has two components: kill points and placement points.

## Kill Points

A fixed value per kill. Common settings:

* **1 kill = 1 point** — standard across most Indian FF tournaments
* **1 kill = 2 points** — rewards aggressive gameplay
* **1 kill = 0.5 points** — reduces the impact of kills vs placement

## Placement Points

Points awarded based on a team's finishing position in a match. You define the value for each position (1st through 12th for a standard Free Fire lobby).

## Common Point Tables

### FFIC / Standard Format

The most commonly used format in Indian Free Fire esports:

| Placement    | Points |
| ------------ | ------ |
| 1st (Booyah) | 12     |
| 2nd          | 9      |
| 3rd          | 8      |
| 4th          | 7      |
| 5th          | 6      |
| 6th          | 5      |
| 7th          | 4      |
| 8th          | 3      |
| 9th          | 2      |
| 10th         | 1      |
| 11th         | 0      |
| 12th         | 0      |

Kill points: 1 per kill

### Kill-Heavy Format

For events that reward aggressive play:

| Placement    | Points |
| ------------ | ------ |
| 1st (Booyah) | 15     |
| 2nd          | 10     |
| 3rd          | 8      |
| 4th-6th      | 5      |
| 7th-9th      | 3      |
| 10th-12th    | 0      |

Kill points: 2 per kill

### Placement-Heavy Format

For events that reward survival:

| Placement    | Points |
| ------------ | ------ |
| 1st (Booyah) | 20     |
| 2nd          | 15     |
| 3rd          | 12     |
| 4th          | 10     |
| 5th          | 8      |
| 6th          | 6      |
| 7th-12th     | 0      |

Kill points: 1 per kill

## Setting Your Point Table

When creating a tournament or scrim, you define your point table during setup. Enter the kill point value and the placement points for each position.

> **Tip:** If you're unsure, start with the FFIC standard format. It's what most Indian FF players are familiar with.

## How Points Are Calculated

For each match, each team's total points are:

**Total = (Kills × Kill Point Value) + Placement Points**

**Example:** A team gets 8 kills and places 2nd with FFIC format:

* Kill points: 8 × 1 = 8
* Placement points: 9 (for 2nd place)
* **Total: 17 points**

## Point Table Scope

Your point table currently applies across all stages of your tournament. All matches in all stages use the same kill and placement values.
