I am loving the game, but only after a few weeks and being in top 50 PVP, I would love to see a number of weekly events run. They would give a bit of variety, and mean not only the best PVP’ers would win all the prizes. 1 or more events could be run every week. Either rotating them, or have them all up every week with different prizes. The kind of things I am talking about are Top 10/100/1000 in the following, with perhaps different prize tiers.

Fastest Match Completed  
Least moves for a win  
Least health remaining at the end of a PVP fight  
Most Moves from a Treasure Map  
Most Defences Won  
Most Moves in a PVP match  
Fastest Arena Completed  
Most Arena’s Completed  
Highest Win Streak  
Highest overall damage from a single move  
Highest overall damage from a single turn  
Highest WIN Percentage  
Most Troops Killed by your Hero  
Most Burn Kills in the Week  
Most Poison Kills in the Week  
Most Explosion Kills in the Week (Skulls destroyed by Explosions)  
Fastest to win 10 3 Trophy matches in a row  
Fastest to win 10 2 Trophy matches in a row  
Fastest to win 10 1 Trophy matches in a row  
Most Deathmark Kills in a Week

There are lots of things to choose from, and changing it up every week would add to the longevity of the game. Also, These metrics would all be reset at the start of each week. I play trove and it has a similar event system - and it works really well. The problem with events that don’t reset every week is that eventually the same person wins it every week, or you only get a few at the top competing, and it freezes out new players.

Full weekly resets are the only way to keep it fresh.

Cheers

In the same vein as Tacet’s idea and the consoles tasks.

Most Troops Killed by your Hero  
Most Burn Kills in the Week  
Most Poison Kills in the Week  
Most Explosion Kills in the Week (Skulls destroyed by Explosions)

These would also make fun future tasks if you replace ‘Most’ and ‘In a Week’ with just a straight amount.

Nice ones.

Just thought of

Fastest to win 10 3 Trophy matches in a row…  
Fastest to win 10 2 Trophy matches in a row…  
Fastest to win 10 1 Trophy matches in a row…

Desperation, Adoration or Disgust ?

Having these metrics available should also make it pretty obvious if anybody is using bots or a hack of some kind. A 1 second match would be a dead give-away.

I’m certain they already have these metrics internally.

I am sure they have some of them, but would they really track how many level 3 matches in a row someone wins ? Probably not.

In any case, the more metrics they already have, the easier it would be to implement these events. Use the same graph and code as the pvp ladder, and it becomes even easier.
