I love the fact it's progression based

Excited for this event, always open to some free units and other nice rewards. No complaints for me, this one looks solid. Just for clarification, can't see the specific rewards for the 6 quests, am I missing something, or is that a wait and find out kinda thing. Same for the drop rates on the envelopes. Not that either matters much at this time, it's just a fun event to celebrate the New Year, just covering all the bases. Thanks in advance, hyped!

With the return of the gifting badge, will we be able to send any other other besides envelopes?

Removed it from the original post to avoid further confusion. You will only be able to send envelopes.

will new accounts that have not achieved proven not have access to the calendar?
ex. If I choose to do a new account challenge, will I have access to the calendar from lvl 5, or need to be proven first?

Why not just give us a full list of what all comes in the envelopes? What's the more?

"Proven"-labeled tables are actually Proven and below! The only requirement is Level 5.

It's different shades of sadness and disappointment...

Kerneas

Any hint on what's inside the envelopes? Don't see it in the post, maybe I am blind tho

Deepworld

As someone who celebrates LNY, I can say that it’s really nice of Kabam to give decent rewards relative to the event itself. Nice one!

cavalier gets cavalier crystal shards ??????

the cavalier shard crystal doesn't exist in cavalier.
it gets unlocked in TB or I'm wrong?

Unlocks at Cav, becomes cheaper at TB.

What is the max number of additional envelopes that can be earned in the SQ?

Standardman1989

Thank you for improving the crystals and by level it is very appreciable

DNA3000

No 8* shards? Sad.

See we are celebrating Lunar Year why not Hindu new year celebrated in the game as it is celebrated in India? Why not Diwali based events? Why are we not celebrating any Indian specific festivals or occasions?

Understand the US based events but why chinese if not indians?

already knew the game it wanted to debut in the country was the highly successful Marvel: Contest of Champions: its fastest game ever to $100 million in revenue. It also knew that the majority of downloads and revenue in China came from its many Android app stores.(thanks to Google)

Abc123zaq

Hello, will there be any rewards for spending platinum in the event, or do they depend solely on the title? If in the course of an event, for example, go from conqueror to liberated, will the rewards improve? Sorry, the information is just not completely clear to new players...

You're both right.

The fully formed crystal, that you buy for units, is unlocked at Cav and cheaper at TB.

HOWEVER

The shard crystal, that you get for free, is unlocked at TB. Takes 2 weeks to form 1. And then gets "cheaper" as it takes a week to form one at Paragon.

Just out of curiosity.. does anyone know if the lunar new year event carries any unit deals at all, or any other kind of deals really? If anyone remembers from previous years etc

I believe in the past they added a greater red envelop to the $5 grandmaster+ daily deals (I believe for 1 week but could be mistaken)... can't recall any other deals though

Don’t take this so personally lol. This is called marketing, a business decision with the goal of encouraging spending. No one is stopping you from celebrating anything. Buy yourself an Odin on Diwali to celebrate if you like.
