Standard Boomhauer Showdown & Elite Zapp Brannigan Showdown Challenges will begin on Monday, November 18th @ 18:00 UTC and will end on Friday, November 22nd @ 18:00 UTC. These Showdown challenges will be replacing the regularly scheduled Clash for the week of 11/18/19 - 11/22/19.
For those that are unfamiliar with the event, Showdown Challenges are similar to a Clash with a few variations.
Instead of a Battleground Effect (BGE) that boosts a select set of combos, a Showdown BGE will provide a 100% boost to the stats and skills of a specific input card and all combos created by it. The input card may be a Character or an Object card. The BGE will not boost Power Cards. Just like in Clashes, the Global Battleground Effect does not apply.
While Clashes are a Secret Fight Club only event, players of all levels and experience will be able to participate in Showdown Challenges. Each Showdown event will have two tiers, splitting players into groups based on their arena rank.
| Arena Rank | Showdown Tier | Showdown Buff |
|---|---|---|
| Arena Rank 1 - 10 | Standard | Boomhauer |
| Arena Rank 11+ | Elite | Zapp Brannigan |
The BGE will affect all rarities of the boosted card. The Standard Showdown will have a BGE that boosts Boomhauer and the Elite Showdown will have a BGE that boosts Zapp Brannigan.
Each day of the event will provide 6 energy, and there will be no refills.
How will scoring, ranks and rewards work?
Scoring in Showdown battles will be very similar to Clash: the difficulty and points you earn per battle will increase as you go up in level. Winning will award the battle reward points displayed for that level and will advance you one level up. Losing a battle will award points for the previous level and will demote you down one level.
Additionally players will be divided into groups of 100, each with its own ranking! Battle to collect as many points as you can, climb the ranks and reap the benefits. There will be no milestones in this event, but due to the divided rankings it will be much easier to obtain rank rewards.
