Season 1 Celebration: All Events and Rewards

0 comments

Season 1 is officially over! The fierce territorial battles are behind us, and now it's time to reap the rewards of your hard work. The grand Celebration has kicked off in the game, and it will last exactly 28 days (4 weeks).

Throughout this entire month, the developers have prepared a packed schedule for us: a variety of exciting events, generous resource giveaways, unique mini-games, and exclusive decoration items. This is a great opportunity to heavily upgrade your base and restock before the next challenges.

In this article, we'll break down every activity of the celebration month in detail so you can claim maximum Diamonds, Recruitment Tickets, and other valuable rewards.

Bingo Task

As part of the Season 1 Celebration, the "Bingo Task" event has started. The event itself lasts exactly 7 days, so there is no time to waste! The mechanics are simple and familiar to everyone, but the rewards here are an excellent boost for your base's progression.

How does it work?

You are presented with a classic 15-cell grid. By completing tasks, you earn three types of rewards:

  • Basic Reward: For completing each individual task, you receive 50 Black Market Cash Black Market Cash and 100 Diamonds Diamonds.
  • Line Bonuses: Cleared a horizontal row (3 tasks) or a vertical column (5 tasks)? Claim an intermediate blue chest! Inside each one: 400 Black Market Cash Black Market Cash and 2 Survivor Recruitment Tickets Survivor Recruitment Ticket.
  • Grand Prize: By clearing the entire grid (15 tasks), you unlock the final Golden Chest.

Task List

Bingo - Execute UR Secret Task 8 times
Bingo - Train 3000 Units
Bingo - Use 3000 min of Speed-ups
Bingo - Recruit heroes 30 times
Bingo - Log in for 1 day
Bingo - Collect 200 Alliance Gifts
Bingo - Log in for 5 days
Bingo - Gather 50000 resources
Bingo - Defeat any Doom Elite 20 times
Bingo - Complete 100 Radar Tasks
Bingo - Make 100 Alliance donations
Bingo - Use 3000 min tech research Speed-up
Bingo - Help Allies 200 Times
Bingo - Dispatch Trade Truck 10 times
Bingo - Recruit heroes 100 times

Walkthrough Nuances - How to secure the Grand Prize

Most tasks are completed in the background during normal activity, and an active player will easily finish 14 out of 15 tasks in 2-3 days. However, the game has strict system limits you need to keep in mind:

  • System Limits: You physically cannot dispatch more than 5 Trade Trucks a day or complete more than a specific number of Secret Tasks (up to 11 per day). Radar Tasks are also limited and only refresh every 6 hours. Plan your time ahead!
  • The Main Trap — Logging In: The trickiest task is "Log in for 5 days". The days are counted cumulatively, meaning they don't have to be consecutive. But considering the event only lasts 7 days, missing even three days will completely strip you of the chance to claim the final Golden Chest. This isn't an issue for active players, but still — don't forget to log in to the game every day!

Final Rewards - What will you get in total?

If you complete the event 100%, your total haul will be:

  • 5,450 Black Market Cash Black Market Cash (750 for tasks + 3,200 for lines + 1,500 from the grand chest)
  • 1,500 Diamonds Diamonds
  • 30 Hero Recruitment Tickets Hero Recruitment Ticket
  • 16 Survivor Recruitment Tickets Survivor Recruitment Ticket
  • 10 UR Hero Universal Shards UR Hero Universal Shard
  • 1 Decoration Chest Decoration Chest (contains one random epic decoration: Bell Tower, Ferris Wheel, Gold Tank, Gold Bomber, Golden Missile Vehicle, Neon Sign, or "Eiffelle" Tower)

Black Market

The second major event, which kicks off at the start of the season and lasts for the full 28 days, is the Black Market. This is exactly where you will be able to spend the Black Market Cash Black Market Cash that can be earned in various events throughout the entire celebration. What makes this market unique? It allows even non-spending players to activate Exclusive Weapons!

How the store works and the refresh mechanics

The Black Market displays 6 items at a time. Their distribution is always strictly fixed: 1 slot is always Free, 2 slots are Discounted ("Value"), and 3 slots are Regular Items.

You are not obligated to buy everything in sight. The main feature of the market is the manual store refresh mechanic:

  • 8 attempts per day: Every day you are given exactly 8 attempts to refresh the store. The first attempt is free, while the rest cost a small amount of Diamonds Diamonds (from 10 to 30).
  • Carrying over attempts: If you haven't used up your refreshes today, they don't expire; instead, they are carried over to the next day.
  • The golden rule for F2P (Free-to-Play): Do not spend all your Cash Black Market Cash on the very first items you see! If you are a free-to-play player, you simply won't have enough currency to buy out the entire store. Your goal is to regularly refresh the store using Diamonds and cherry-pick the most valuable items.

Item Drop Rates

The store offers a massive pool of rewards with varying chances of appearing. For your convenience, we have compiled all possible items and their drop rates into three easy-to-read tables based on the store slot.

Black Market - Free items

Black Market - Discount items

Priority Tips: What to Buy at the Black Market

To avoid wasting your Black Market Cash Black Market Cash, we've prepared a list of priority purchases. The main rule is to hunt for things that are the hardest to get in the game through regular gameplay!

1. Free items (Take everything)
Every time before tapping the "Refresh" button, make sure to claim the free item from the first slot! Do this all 8 times a day. If you're lucky with the drop rates, you might pull some highly valuable loot from there.

2. Main goal — Exclusive Weapon Shards
This is the absolute top priority, especially for those who haven't acquired these shards through spending during the season. In Season 1, only three heroes can activate an Exclusive Weapon: Kimberly, DVA, and Tesla.

  • You need 50 shards to activate a weapon for one hero.
  • Collecting 150 shards for all three will be incredibly difficult, so set a realistic goal: collect 50 shards for the hero you use in your main squad.
  • Where to find them: On the "Discount" shelf, hunt for the 1-shard lots Hero Exclusive Weapon Shard Choice Chest (1 pc) for 60 Cash. On the "Regular Items" shelf, look out for the 10-shard packs Hero Exclusive Weapon Shard Choice Chest (10 pcs) for 1,000 Cash.

3. Decoration Items (Tower of Victory)
Among the discounted goods, pay special attention to epic decorations. The most valuable purchase will be the Tower of Victory Tower of Victory — this decoration will definitely come in handy in Season 2, as it provides an excellent bonus.

Black Market Challenge

In the second week of the celebration, the "Black Market Challenge" event begins. This is a great opportunity to restock your currency for store purchases simply by going about your usual daily activities.

How does it work?

The core of the event is extremely simple: you perform routine in-game actions and receive Black Market Cash Black Market Cash in return.

  • How to Obtain Cash: Radar Tasks, killing regular Zombies and Doom Elites, attacking Wanted Bosses and Doom Walkers, Zombie Invasions, Alliance Exercises, and General's Trials. For each action, you might receive a random currency pack (from 5 to 50 Cash, depending on the activity type).
  • Daily Limit: You can collect a maximum of 600 Cash per day. With average activity, this limit is reached very easily and seamlessly in the background.
  • Limit Rollover: If you miss a day or don't manage to collect all 600 Cash, don't worry! The unused limit carries over to the next day. You can always catch up, for example, by simply spending excess stamina to kill regular Zombies on the map.

Secret to Maximizing Profit

There is one crucial detail in the event rules: Secret Mobile Squad tasks DO NOT count towards the daily limit!

This means that the currency obtained from these tasks is added on top of your standard 600 per day. Therefore, during this event, we strongly recommend completing only Legendary (UR) secret tasks to earn the maximum amount of Black Market Cash.

Black Market Challenge

New Thematic Radar Tasks

During the celebration, several new tasks are added to the regular Radar Tasks. There is nothing overly complex or fundamentally new about them, but they perfectly mix up the usual gameplay and provide nice bonuses. A total of 4 new task types have been added:

Supply Search minigame
Black Market Chest minigame
Festive Run minigame
Resource Collection Truck minigame

1. Supply Search (Test Your Luck)
An interesting mini-game where you need to delve deep into a warehouse. There are 5 stages in total. You can claim the current reward and leave at any time, or risk it and go further. The chance of success drops with each step: 100% → 80% → 60% → 40% → 30%. Our tip: there is no real point in stopping at the early stages, as the initial rewards are too small. It's always better to take the risk and try to reach the very end — over the 28 days of the event, you will definitely get lucky and hit the jackpot!

2. Black Market Chest
A classic "shell game". The merchant shows you three chests, one of which hides the best (mysterious) reward. The chests are shuffled, and you simply need to guess the correct one.

3. Festive Run
A dynamic level in the style of the familiar "Frontline Breakthrough". You run along the track, shooting zombies and multiplier barrels. As a reward for completing it, you receive units of your highest available level.

4. Resource Collection Truck
You drive a truck racing down a track and collect scattered resources (Food, Iron, Coins). Pay attention: if you're lucky, you can even collect premium Diamonds on the road!

Retake the Warzone

Another important celebration event is Retake the Warzone. Corruptors have captured cities on your server, and now all players must join forces to drive them out. This is an excellent source of extra Black Market Cash Black Market Cash and UR Hero Universal Shards UR Hero Universal Shard!

How does it work?

The event is based on the teamwork of the entire server:

  • Attack Attempts: Every day, each player is given 4 attempts to attack the Corruptors. Make sure to use all of them!
  • Vulnerabilities: Pay attention to the Corruptors' traits. By using the right unit type, you will deal much more damage to them.
  • Server Progress: Once the players on the server eliminate all Corruptors of the same level, a powerful global buff is activated for the entire Warzone.

Global Warzone Buffs

As cities are liberated, your server will consecutively unlock the following effects, which will significantly speed up your progression:

  • Economic Recovery: Increase Food, Iron, and Coin Output by 25%.
  • Efficient Development: Increase Construction and Research Speed by 10%.
  • Quick Construction: Increase free Speed-up time for Construction by 7,200s (2 hours).
  • Quick Research: Increase free Speed-up time for Research by 7,200s (2 hours).
  • Efficient Training: Increase Unit Training speed by 10%.
  • United As One: Increase Time Helped per action by 720s.

Tasks and Rewards (Progress Bar)

By participating in battles, you will fill the event's progress bar and claim reward chests. The tasks themselves are divided into two categories:

  1. Personal Tasks: Attack any Corruptor (from 5 to 30 times during the event). Log in every day and spend your 4 attempts to guarantee completing this branch.
  2. Server-wide Tasks: Capture a total of up to 80 Cities in the Warzone and activate up to 6 global buffs. Everything here depends on the activity of your entire server!

Champion Duel: A Global PvP Event

The Champion Duel is a massive event that appears in the game on the second day of the celebration and lasts until its very end. By participating in it, you can win excellent prizes, and in the finale, we will find out who the strongest player is across multiple servers.

The event is divided into several tabs and stages. Let's break down what you need to do in the first week.

Champion duel lineup tab
Champion duel group tab

The "Match" Tab and Tournament Schedule

This tab displays your status and the overall progress of the event. The tournament consists of 8 consecutive stages. To give you an idea of the event's pace, here is the full schedule:

  1. Sign-up stage: 5 days (Unlocks at the start of the event)
  2. Sign-up Detail (Grouping): 1 day
  3. Qualifiers: 4 days
  4. Qualifier Detail: 3 days
  5. Semi-finals: 4 days
  6. Semi-final Detail: 3 days
  7. Knockout Stage: 5 days
  8. Results: 2 days

Throughout the first week, you just need to tap the register button and wait for Monday, when the group distribution begins.

The "Grand Celebration" Tab

While the sign-up stage is ongoing, you can claim additional rewards here. Other players' declarations pop up on the screen, and there is a large progress bar in the center.

  • Fireworks: You get them for completing regular daily tasks.
  • How it works: Donate the fireworks you obtain to advance the overall progress bar. Reaching certain milestones unlocks prize chests (including Black Market Cash).
  • Scale: The bar is filled through the joint efforts of 16 servers (a merger of two Warzones from Season 1). Because of this, progress is fast, and all active participants will be able to claim gifts.

The "Lineup" Tab: An Important Nuance with Buffs

On this tab, you form the three squads that will fight in the tournament. Here, you can also write a short declaration (slogan) that will be visible to other participants.

⚠️ Pay attention to synchronization:
Your heroes' stats in the Champion Duel do not update automatically. If you level up a hero, upgrade gear, or research tech during the week, these buffs will not apply to your Duel squads on their own. You need to go to the "Lineup" tab and manually tap the "Sync Data" button.

Qualifiers

After the sign-up stage ends, all participants are divided into multiple groups. Battles take place every day at exactly 12:00 server time for 5 days (with 8 battles per day). A victory boosts your ranking in the group, while a defeat lowers it.

Your personal presence during the battle is not required. The fights happen automatically: the system uses the three squads you previously set up on the "Lineup" tab.

How to be the best among equals?
Between battles, you have time to check your next opponent's profile and watch the replays of their previous fights. Many players never change their lineup, making it easy to adapt and counter them:

  • The 2:1 Tactic. To win a match, you need to win 2 out of 3 battles. For most players, their squads are unbalanced: the first is strong, the second is weaker, and the third is the weakest. Match your strongest squad against their second, your second against their third, and sacrifice your weakest squad to their main hit. This way, you will take the win with a 2:1 score.
  • Counter-classes. Keep damage penalties in mind. For example, tanks deal less damage to aircraft. The basic rule is: Tanks have a damage penalty against Aircraft, Aircraft against Missile Vehicles, and Missile Vehicles against Tanks.

Let's be honest: achieving high results in the Duel without serious investments (unless you are a "whale") will be difficult. Nevertheless, participating in the event is definitely worth it! You will receive rewards even just for winning individual battles. Thanks to the matchmaking system, after the first few fights, you will quickly rise or fall to players of your own skill level. Keep in mind that at the end of the stage, only the top 2 players from each group advance to the semi-finals.

Qualifier Detail: Rewards for You and Your Server

Participating in the Qualifier battles yields various resources. All prizes in this event are divided into two main categories: participation rewards and ranking rewards.

1. Participation Reward (Instant Prizes)
These rewards depend entirely on your personal activity. You don't need to wait for the stage to end — prizes can be claimed immediately as you reach the milestones.

  • For Wins: Awarded as you accumulate battle victories.
  • For Kill Score (Damage): Awarded for dealing damage to enemy troops. Even if you lose a match but deal damage, you still fill this bar and receive Black Market Cash, tickets, and medals.

2. Ranking Reward (Individual + Server)
These rewards are calculated and distributed only after all Qualifier battles are completed, depending on your final placement in the group (from 1st to 100th place).

This is where the main mechanic of the event lies. The reward for each rank consists of two parts:

  • Individual Reward: Claimed by the player who secured that rank.
  • Same Warzone Rewards: This portion of the rewards goes to ALL players on your server!

What does this mean in practice?
16 servers participate in the Champion Duel. If your server has many strong and active players who secure high ranks in their Qualifier groups, they will generate a massive amount of passive rewards for your entire Warzone. Thus, a strong server provides extra prizes for absolutely every single one of its players.

Semi-finals and Knockout Stage: Win-Win Predictions

After the group stage concludes, the semi-finals and the final stages of the tournament begin. Let's be objective: unless you've invested serious money into the game, making it into this bracket will be extremely difficult.

However, for the majority of players, the most exciting and profitable time begins — the "Predicts" tab unlocks.

The main rule of predictions: You risk nothing!
Predictions are made using Black Market Cash. The unique thing about this system is that it's completely win-win. If the player you predicted wins, you take your multiplied winnings. If they lose, your prediction amount is simply fully refunded. You lose nothing!

Basic Rules:

  • Make sure to place your predictions strictly before 12:00 server time (before the battles start).
  • The number of attempts is limited. While there are many matches, you get 5 attempts per day. Closer to the finals, when there are fewer matches, the number of attempts will physically decrease (for the grand final, there will only be 1 prediction).

Tips: How to earn maximum Cash

Since there's no risk, our goal is to squeeze the maximum amount of Black Market currency out of this event. Here is how to do it right:

  1. Don't predict on the main screen. The game will offer you a random matchup. Instead, tap the "More Matches" button and go to the "Match List" tab.
  2. Look for the maximum multiplier. In the list, matches are divided by multipliers: x2, x3, x4 (and the grand final will have x5). Ignore the low multipliers and look for matches with an x4 multiplier.
  3. Choose the clear favorite. In an x4 match, find the player with the most predictions for their win. This is easy to spot by the green bar and the "Total predictions" amount under the participant (or you might just know the main "whales" of your own or other Warzones participating in the tournament). Yes, surprises happen sometimes, but even if the favorite unexpectedly loses, you'll simply get your money back.
  4. Predict the maximum. When selecting your prediction amount, always choose the maximum — 100 Cash.

Summary: Always keep at least 500 Black Market Cash in reserve specifically for predictions. By finding 5 matches with an x4 multiplier every day and predicting 100 Cash on the favorites, you will receive a massive influx of free currency for store purchases!

Additional bonuses in the final stages
Besides the prediction winnings, the game provides other nice bonuses. First, there are rewards for winning in the semi-finals and finals (but only the tournament participants themselves will claim these). Second, rewards are given simply for the number of predictions made — you will easily get these if you follow our guide. And most importantly — rewards for the entire server. The further the representatives of your Warzone advance in the tournament bracket, the more prizes absolutely all players on the server will receive. If you have many strong fighters or the main "whale" of the entire tournament — there will be a massive amount of prizes. All that's left for you to do here is actively cheer for your people!

The Queen's Revenge: City Defense

Another intriguing celebration event is The Queen's Revenge. In terms of mechanics, it closely resembles the Crimson Legion event, which we actively participated in throughout Season 1.

How does the event work?

According to the game rules, the event relies heavily on coordination within your alliance:

  • Attack Schedule: The Crimson Queen's troops will lay siege to cities on the map every Tuesday and Thursday.
  • Target Selection (Task for R4/R5): A list of threatened cities appears on the event screen. Each city has its own difficulty level (indicated by skulls). The alliance leadership must accurately assess the strength of their players and set an official Defense Target.
  • Garrison: When the attack begins, alliance members must garrison their troops at the chosen city and hold the defense.
  • Loot Collection: If the alliance successfully repels the monster waves, substantial loot rewards will appear around the saved city on the map to be collected.

Reward Scale and Tasks

The event features a separate progress bar with five chests (at 40, 80, 120, 160, and 200 points). Points to unlock these chests are awarded for completing global Warzone tasks:

  1. Successfully defending a certain number of cities in your Warzone (from 5 to 60 times).
  2. Eliminating special enemies — Crimson Gunners.

How the attacks work: Wave Mechanics and Crimson Gunners

The Crimson Queen's attacks occur every Tuesday and Thursday at 12:00 server time. On organized servers, the President usually distributes the cities among alliances in advance to avoid chaos, after which alliance leaders place markers on the needed targets.

Difficulty Dynamics (30 Waves)
During a city attack, there are exactly 30 waves of monsters. It's important to understand that the difficulty scales up gradually: on the very first Tuesday of the event, the enemies will be frankly weak, but with each subsequent attack day, their strength will increase. The real need for a solid defense will only arise towards the end of the month.

The Garrison Nuance and Personal Points
According to game mechanics, the impact of an attacking wave is taken by the squad that entered the city last. Since the initial waves are very weak, a single player might easily fend them off alone, while the rest just sit in the garrison. But don't worry! Chasing personal points in this event makes little sense. You won't lose anything if you just stand idly in defense.

Crimson Gunners and Shared Rewards
From time to time during the defense, special bosses — Crimson Gunners — will appear on the map. Any player can send their squad to attack, and the march from any point on the map takes only 15 seconds. The main difficulty here is simply managing to tap the attack button faster than others, as there will be many players eager to kill the boss, and it gets destroyed very quickly.

The entire reward bar with chests is filled exclusively based on the overall success of your Warzone (the total number of successfully defended cities and eliminated gunners). So simply send your troops to the alliance markers, make whatever contribution you can, and claim excellent rewards together with the whole server!
