The LIVE Match: What Happened?

If you’re not familiar with TikTok LIVE matches, here’s the deal: creators battle it out live, powered by their community’s support. Viewers send likes, gifts, power-ups, and cheers to help their favorite creator score points in real time. It’s fast, furious, and all about engagement. The match between Jamie and Kasualleigh was no exception!

• Round 1: Jamie took the win with 152,520 points to 99,340.

• Round 2: Kasualleigh roared back, winning 165,496 to 145,224.

• Round 3 (Final): It came down to the final moments. With less than 1,000 points separating them, Jamie secured the victory, 89,296 to 88,162, thanks to a last-second wave of support from her community and smart combo of power-ups.
