How do I start a match against a bot, a friend, or a guest?

Updated August 23, 2026

Open Spielen → Training → Match, add your opponents via Hinzufügen, and configure the Game Mode. You can choose between a bot, a Guest player, or an existing player as your opponent.

Open a match

Training games with the Match entry highlighted

Set up a match

Match setup with five highlighted areas

  1. Hinzufügen — opens the opponent selection.
  2. Erweiterte Einstellungen — Durchschnitt, double tracking, keyboard.
  3. Game Mode — game format and distance.
  4. Score — 501 and alternatives.
  5. Spiel starten

Select an opponent

New player selection with four highlighted options

  1. Bot — computer opponent.
  2. Gastspieler — someone without an account, just a name.
  3. Bestehender Spieler — a Dartcom account.
  4. Me — yourself, for example for a game against a bot.

Bot

Bot level with a highlighted entry

Each level shows the average and the range within which a Leg is finished. Level 13, for example, plays a 63.1 Average and needs 21 to 27 darts.

Bestehender Spieler

Selecting an existing player with two highlighted areas

  1. Requirement — you must follow each other mutually. Someone who only follows you will not appear here.
  2. Search result — name and @ username.

After the game, the added player must confirm the stats via their Benachrichtigungen. Only then does the game count in their profile as well.

Erweiterte Einstellungen

Advanced settings with four highlighted areas

  1. Durchschnitt — hides the running Average during the game. Useful if it's distracting.
  2. Darts auf Doppel erfassen — prompts you after each Leg.
  3. Zu den Tastatureinstellungen — jumps to the Tastatureinstellungen.
  4. Anwenden — applies the changes.
