So, as a lot of late-to-end-game players agree, the meta is getting stale. It can be annoying and frustrating to see the same troops over and over and over again. When event system was first proposed I had mistakenly thought that it would help fix this problem. Only one week in I realize that it’s a bit different than I had thought it would be. **My idea to help fix the meta is to make one event (hopefully add one rather than take one of the four we have currently) specifically for defense.** **Now, it could have any goal to it, but what I was thinking is that it would have something to do with using the weekly kingdom event troops. Every person that defends against you when using those troops would grant you an event currency thing. If you win then you get a bonus.** The goal of this would be to reward players for using new defense teams every week. And it would get people to play around with the newly released troops which I think a lot of people ignore unless it is meta breaking (but I can really only speak for myself there - I know I do that) I think it would definitely switch up pvp for most players since you’d turn it into an event and you could gain event points and then turn that into rewards which would need to be better than defense rewards. There is also this idea that I thought was really great - > [@The anti-meta is the new meta...and it's even more boring](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/the-anti-meta-is-the-new-meta-and-its-even-more-boring/16551/86): > > Another idea is to:1) the bonus from “Week of …” is applied only to Invade team2) add a similar bonus to Defense team and only on the troops concerned by the Snotgems event (so for example this week, Undead have +25% stats) **If anyone else wants to contribute to event suggestions, please feel free**. I would like to make events as great as they can be! They are a great feature I just think they need a little bit of work 🙂 --- _[View the full topic](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/event-system-improvements/16788)._
