The Battlerealm, finds a way.
Do you and your Champions really think you can stand up to Grandmaster Goldblum’s Asgardian Army?! Prove your might in Grandmaster Goldblum’s Challenge, and take on 6 Champions chosen by the Grandmaster Goldblum himself, in celebration of the upcoming film, Thor: Ragnarok!
This bonus quest exists in addition to the Quests that are already on the go, as well as the Boss Rush challenge, and it has the regular caveat… It’s hard! Remember the Web-Slinger Challenge? It’s like that, but with a cosmic and mystic flair to it!
This isn’t gonna be easy, so let’s just get that straight right now! Not everybody is going to be able to complete it, but the Grandmaster rewards those Summoners brave enough to persevere against his greatest challenges!
This Challenge starts TODAY at 10 am PT, and runs until November 16th at 10 am PT!
Will this be harder than the Web-Slinger Challenge?
That depends on how you found the Web-Slinger Challenge. Overall we have not greatly changed the base difficulty, but the different Champions and buffs will create a new experience!
What’s the structure of this Challenge?
The Challenge will consist of only 1 Chapter, and contains only 4 quests. Each of these quests has 31 Fights! Each quest consists of 6 paths, connected with portals, with 5 fights on each of them. There are 7 Portals on the map, with the 1st portal exiting to the beginning of any path, except the final boss. The rest will exit to either the Boss, or the next path. This way, you can teleport to your latest checkpoint next time you play if you weren't able to fully complete a quest on your first attempt.
Who did the Grandmaster bring out to play?
The Grandmaster is bringing out Thor, Thor (Jane Foster), Angela, Hulk and Doctor Strange to battle your Champions, and Loki will be acting as the Boss of every Quest!
What kind of Buffs will we be up against?
In addition to the regular Health and Attack buffs that you commonly see around the Contest, you’ll also be running up against some newer buffs that were introduced in Act 5, such as Bane, Cornered, and Brute Force! But, we’ll also be bringing back a majority of the global buffs used in the Web-Slinger challenge, including Life Transfer! As a reminder, that buff means you degenerate 2% of your Max Health per second, but steal 125% of the damage you deal as health. Life Transfer will benefit Summoners who attack aggressively, and can pull you out of a tough spot if you play your cards right. That said, it can very well work to your disadvantage in critical situations, should you play in an overly defensive manner. It’s important to note that there will be an instance where you’ll run up against Life Transfer and Bane at once. Effective use of Life Transfer in this fight will definitely aid wise Summoners!
We chose to bring Life Transfer back for this Challenge because you Summoners let us know how much you enjoyed it in the previous Challenge, but note that this doesn’t mean that we’ll be using it in every Champion Challenge going forward.
Will there be 6-Star Champions in this Challenge?
Nope! No 6-Star Champions in sight in this Challenge! This will be running for an entire month, but the first 13 days will overlap with the Boss Rush challenge that is also on. If you’d like to see how you’d fare against 6-Star Champions, that’s where you wanna do it!

Is there a Legends Title involved?
Yes there is! We’ll be using the “Time Attack” legends title approach. Your time starts when you begin the Challenge and ends when you 100% Complete all the quests. The top 100 fastest players will earn a Legends title, Legends points and one Tier 4 Class Catalyst Crystal. If you’re one of the fastest 5, you’ll get an additional two crystals, for a total of three Tier 4 Class Catalyst Crystals.Your time cannot be paused so be careful on when you begin and there’s only one entry per player. Summoners will have until the end of the event on November 16th at 10am PT to 100% complete all of the quests in order to qualify for the Legends Title.
What about those of us that don’t want to go for the Legends Title? Is there another Title for Mastering the Challenge?
Of course there is, but it’s really cool and we wanted to make sure that it got the attention that it deserved!
Summoners that master the entire challenge will receive the Rare Title of “The Goldblum”
There you have it Summoners! Prepare yourselves! Grandmaster Goldblum’s challenge is not for the faint of heart.

It would be great if you all would post the cumulative rewards for 100% so that I don't have to math.
They run the gamut from 2-Stars (on the first Quest) to 5-Stars!
Anyways similar rewards like web slinger
You do realize that you're essentially giving out the equivalent of a 3* AG and a fraction of a 4* crystal a few months ago? Very disappointing.
It is not just of The Uncollected among us, though newer players will definitely have difficulties getting through the later Quests. Remember, this is not meant to be easy!
Probably much harder content - which means more complaining about how hard the content is. They will either face backlash for rewards or backlash for difficulty. If the difficulty of this challenge is in line with similar past events, then calling for better rewards is silly given that rosters are that much stronger than they used to be.
2000 Premium Crystal Shards
600 3* Crystal Shards
2600 4* Crystal Shards
1900 5* Shards
1 tier 3 class cat crystal
1 tier 1 alpha cat
7500 tier 4 basic cat fragments
2 tier 4 basic cats
1 tier 4 class cat crystal
35 tier 4 class cat fragment crystals
1 4* Awakening Gem Crystal
20 5* Sig Stones
The game moves more towards 5* and soon to be 6* so u remove the 1 5* related reward that we all want, can you explain the reasoning?
