Best Of

People were saying that last year, and you can see from the points chart (which has all of 2024 for comparison) that at no point did points suddenly drop off, because most of the points coming in now (as opposed to the gigantic pulse on day one and the huge but not as big burst on the first day of sales) are likely from players who are nowhere near these top milestones anyway. Most of the points from here on out are going to come from the slow and steady players that just keep chugging along opening crystals and occasionally buying whatever from day to day, probably not even aware of the discussions going on regarding the banquet.

It’s those slow and steady (and mostly oblivious to our ramblings) players that are going to carry us to the finish line. Most of us who care about these top tier milestones already have most of our points baked into the score. I might buy one last batch of crystals myself, but that will be no more than 20% of my total points in the event.

If anything, there was a mad scramble to open crystals on the last day of the event in 2024 that I did not originally expect (or rather, did not expect to be that high). Since we get free crystals and such from the content over time, many players wait until they have them all and open them all at once, which probably accounts for that bump at the end. Free crystals only count 100 points for opening them since we don’t buy them, but collectively those free crystals accounted for a noticeable burst of points at the end.

Last year the 10% cut off was around 22k points. This year that would not be enough to even qualify for the KP/Abs selector. 90% of the players are likely never even going to reach that juicy reward, but they are probably the ones still trickling in points now. They don’t score a ton of points individually, but there are a lot of them (probably around a quarter million of them score below the selector).

Good thing: There will be another key in the milestones.
Bad thing: It’s at 10.000.000.000 points 😜

Just joking of course, but another key would be pretty great.

OP and the monkey are head to head on the year end awards for most ignored mod tagging

In gold yeah sure.

As an owner of a rank 4 nico, I agree that people should feel free to rank up dark phoenix.

People paid quite a bit to get those two champs, you really think you deserve a shot at them during a realm event?

Open 4*/5* crystals. Problem solved.

What you have is a lack of resource management skills.
