A friendly match in electronic games refers to a non-competitive match or game mode played between friends or acquaintances without the pressure of a formal competition or tournament. Friendly matches can be played online or offline, and are typically less intense and more relaxed than competitive matches. Friendly matches can be used for practice, experimentation with new strategies or characters, or simply for socializing and having fun with others who share a common interest in the game. Unlike competitive matches, there are usually no rewards or penalties for the outcome of a friendly match.
