About Golden Koi
Golden Koi is a rare badge for Team Up. A golden koi turning against the current, for luck in the new year. It is a one-time $1.49 unlock that then applies across every league you play in.
Golden Koi is a badge — a small animated mark that sits right next to your name on every ranked row. Badges are the most compact way to add personality to your presence: they read clearly at row height, stack neatly beside your gamer tag, and show up anywhere your leaderboard does, including inside Discord. Like every Team Up cosmetic, Golden Koi is purely visual and has no effect on your rating.
Design & animation
Golden Koi renders in gold around its 🐟 mark. It moves with a gentle side-to-side sway, at a measured pace (4s loop). A gold glow rings the icon so it stays visible against any row background.
Rare sits a step above Common, pairing a bolder palette with a blue accent that reads clearly even at a glance on a busy leaderboard.
