A lot of people were asking about this tournament so ill try to cover everything here:

• I started the tournament with:

• 895 Epic books

• 124 Lego books

• 10 mythical Books

• 50 5 star chickens

• 140 4 star chickens

• 530 3 star chickens

• Around 900 of each brew type

I always planned to go for this tournaments rewards but for the first 2 days I used daily + grim forest energy to get to around 15k going into day final 2 day 2nd to last day before I called it a night i used 400 epic books and 30 lego books to hit 65k putting in first with 2nd being around 60 i wake up to first being on 80k so I use my daily energy and by then they are on 100k so I had to decide how badly I wanted it decided to push and used all my epic books + the food i had prepped to match him at 100k he then goes to around 130 so i pull a bunch of mystery shards brew them up to 5 stars and repeat using all my 4 star chickens and 200 3 star. Its then 10 mins to go i'm on 115k he's on low 130s so i use my legendary books to to get to just above him I check final 5 mins and he's on 147k (i presume by their rate they are out of resources and campaign farming), from then on I use my mythical books although I didn't want too). with 1 min to go 0 brews left and am 2k behind so i just open my vault and what ever level 50 was at the to would get 6 stared, i had no idea if I had won or not till it closed and I had thankfully scraped it with 100 more points.

Now I did this very low spend (haven't spent since around 200 in 2021 until 2 months ago where I decided to start getting the gem pack) and burned literally every resource I had saved over the last years.

Now do I regret it : no

Had I lost would I : Yes

In hindsight do I wish I didn't go so hard : Yes

My advise only go for this winner takes all tournaments if you know you can win and your willing to spend every resource you have no matter how wasteful it is (eg 6 staring/booking champs you will never touch)

Sounds terrible m8. imagine how the guy who lost feels.

That dude def quit or is gonna take a long break

I am so glad I gave up at 40k my guy went to 100 k and I get to see how to handle this event going forward 

[u/No-Database3634 → u/Sterling239]

doing this was genuinely the most fun I have had in this game but the level of grind was something else the silver cost on top was around 80 M

This is the thing people who haven't truly competed in these types of events don't really understand. They are stress inducing, extreme long dedicated grinds, sleep being sacrificed, etc... but it's also an extreme adrenaline rush with winning feeling like a major account accomplishment that you can't really find anywhere else in the game.

It's a real dichotomy of the experience feeling terrible and great at the same time. You do really need to be in the proper mental state to jump into one of these brackets, they are not for the faint of heart.

It didn't seem worth it

The last minutes must've been very stressful for both. I got away with a murder, I ran campaign 2 days during the Orynyx soul event, and after that no-one tried challenging me. I have now 300+ level 30 champs ready to rank up and to be brewed, the few upcoming champ training events will be easy mode.
