About Retro Gaming
Retro Gaming is an epic nameplate for Team Up. Pixel-perfect nostalgia from the golden age of arcade gaming. It is a one-time $2.99 unlock that then applies across every league you play in.
Retro Gaming is a nameplate — it paints your entire row on a Team Up leaderboard. The animated background, the accent border, and any signature particle effect all update the moment you equip it, so wherever your community tracks its standings (a public league page or a leaderboard embedded in Discord) your row carries Retro Gaming's look. Nameplates are cosmetic only: they change how your row appears, never your rating or your placement.
Design & animation
Retro Gaming is built on a gradient of black, sweeping edge to edge across the plate. The animation is a slow horizontal sweep that keeps the colors drifting across your row, at a slow and hypnotic pace (6s per loop). On the leaderboard it carries a signature "retro gaming" particle effect layered over the row.
Epic is a premium tier: richer color work, more pronounced motion, and a purple glow that signals you have invested in your presence.
