The phrase “First-Blood” is very common within the gaming culture. It refers to the first kill of the game. BTLO is a gamified platform itself—hence the adoption of the term. In this case, First-Bloods (FB) refers to the first Defender to finish the lab, after launch! Here is an example from our popular lab:
As you can see in the image above, the player Hataker was the first Defender to solve this lab since its launch date 72 days ago.
Players who obtain their FB will be granted an exclusive badge, as shown above.
As you collect more FBs, you will get complementary badges like the one above.
Note: We do run exclusive events: ‘Trick or Threat’ and ‘Frostbyte’ are a few examples.
The badge above is only attained once the Defender completes the batch of labs within the event. The Defender "Cyberkold" was the first to complete the Halloween event labs (Nimbus, Yurei, Lola La Chata, and Curse Tomb) to obtain this one-of-one badge.
Securing First Blood is a notable achievement! Being the first of dozens to complete a lab is no small feat. It's also an excellent opportunity to connect with other First Blood seekers and compete with them in our Discord.
