WARNING : MATH AHEAD
There’s been a lot of posts floating around lately about the number of fights required in the sq to get all the possible rewards. So let’s crunch some numbers, folks.
Total number of points required = 1,000,000
Number of points with any champ = 3,600
Number of points with the Americas (can't be bothered to list them all)= 5,400
Now, total number of entries available. This seems to be the key quantity in all the calculations
You get 28 clubs from the log in. 1 from when the sq first started, in the mail. And 2 if you chose the club instead of the Platpool piece.
So the maximum clubs obtainable is 31, but that raises the question, what do I do if I didn’t start with 31 entries?
Well fear not, I’ve tailored the formulas so you can enter in your number of entries left.
Basically 186 fights with Americas should get you all the milestones. That would takes 19 days. Of course you can factor in fights you do with other champs, but we’ll get to that later.
If you don’t use the Americas, you must win 278 fights total in order to get all the milestones. Just successfully complete the sq 28 times and you should be good.
Those are the most basic ways to get the milestones, and I’m sure most of you have calculated that yourself. A note here is that it’s very easy to miss out on milestones if not using the Americas.
Method 3 – I’ve Missed Too Many Fights For Method 2 And I Can’t Use Method 1
Now most of us don’t have one of the Americas, or we don’t want to run lower difficulties in order to use method 1.
So what’s the minimum number of fights you need to do with the Americas to qualify for all rewards?
Well you’re gonna have to do some math…
(NOTE : You can just skip to the step-by-step calculation, if math makes you queasy)
N = Number of entries you have, and will be able to obtain.
Eg : I have 3 entries left, and the calendar lasts for 22 more days, therefore for me, N = 25
(NOTE : Please do not get this calculation wrong. Please)
M = Number of points you already have
The above formula will give you the minimum number of fights you need to do with the Americas in order to get all the milestones.
And yes, it looks very confusing, so here’s an example:
N = 3+22 = 25
Therefore, N = 25
Let’s say I have 36,000 points already. Therefore N = 36,000
Now, the calculation.
Step 1: (1,000,000 – M)
1,000,000 – M = 1,000,000 – 36,000 = 964,000
Step 2: (1,000,000 – M)/3,600 [ROUND IT UP]
964,000/3,600 = 267.7, which, upon rounding up = 268
Step 3: (1,000,000 – M)/3,600 [ROUND IT UP] – (N*10)
268 – (25*10) = 268 – 250 = 18
Step 4: ((1,000,000 – M)/3,600 [ROUND IT UP] – (N*10))*2
18*2 = 36
Therefore, I need to do 36 fights with the Americas, and can do the rest (250 – 36 = 214) with anyone else.
Just to show you that it’s accurate:
36*5,400 = 194400
214*3600 = 770400
194400 + 770400 = 964800
Now, since I already had 36,000 points, I just needed 964,000 more. As you can see, the equation works

Method 1 – Using Americas For Every Fight:
1,000,000/5,400 = 186Basically 186 fights with Americas should get you all the milestones. That would takes 19 days. Of course you can factor in fights you do with other champs, but we’ll get to that later.
Method 2 – Not Using Americas At All:
1,000,000/3,600 = 278If you don’t use the Americas, you must win 278 fights total in order to get all the milestones. Just successfully complete the sq 28 times and you should be good.

AKA Minimum Fights With Americas Method:

M = Number of points you already have
The Formula:
((1,000,000 – M)/3,600 [ROUND IT UP] – (N*10))*2The above formula will give you the minimum number of fights you need to do with the Americas in order to get all the milestones.
And yes, it looks very confusing, so here’s an example:
Step-By-Step Demonstration :
Let’s say I have 3 keys now. The calendar will run for 22 more days.N = 3+22 = 25
Therefore, N = 25
Let’s say I have 36,000 points already. Therefore N = 36,000
Now, the calculation.
Step 1: (1,000,000 – M)
1,000,000 – M = 1,000,000 – 36,000 = 964,000
Step 2: (1,000,000 – M)/3,600 [ROUND IT UP]
964,000/3,600 = 267.7, which, upon rounding up = 268
Step 3: (1,000,000 – M)/3,600 [ROUND IT UP] – (N*10)
268 – (25*10) = 268 – 250 = 18
Step 4: ((1,000,000 – M)/3,600 [ROUND IT UP] – (N*10))*2
18*2 = 36
Therefore, I need to do 36 fights with the Americas, and can do the rest (250 – 36 = 214) with anyone else.
Just to show you that it’s accurate:
36*5,400 = 194400
214*3600 = 770400
194400 + 770400 = 964800
Now, since I already had 36,000 points, I just needed 964,000 more. As you can see, the equation works
