Alliance Duel

The two phases

1 · Duel Phase (about six days). Two matched alliances compete for points. Every member earns Personal Points by doing that day’s theme actions, and the alliance total is everyone’s points added together. Each day, the alliance with more points gets a Victory Credit; whoever has more credits at the end wins the Duel.

2 · Clash Phase (the battle). The Duel winner attacks and the loser defends. Wardens fight with troops given by the game (their level matches the highest troops you can train), led by heroes you own — even ones in prison. You register your teams, and whatever bonuses are active when you register are saved.

Your personal rewards come from your own points and ranking; the alliance rewards come from the result. You must still be in the alliance when rewards are given out — that’s Monday at 10:00 AM server time.

The six daily themes

Each day only gives points for its own kind of action, so match your spending to the day. The final day, Ultimate Test, gives points for almost everything from the whole event, so anything you couldn’t use earlier still counts there.

Where the big points are

A few items are worth far more than everything else — save these for a day when they give points:

Next come 1,000 Top-up Points (7,200, every day), Satellite Chip (6,160), and EE parts and Legendary Hero Shards (4,500 each). Every action’s exact value is in the guide below.

Winning the Clash

Register when you’re at your strongest. Whatever bonuses are active when you register are saved — Prison Buffs, Prisoner Armor Skills, Felon Buffs, Duty Effects — so turn everything on first, then register. You can register again later to save a stronger setup.

Spend your Duel Cards. The points you earn in the Duel Phase become Duel Cards, which you spend in the Clash Shop on buffs that apply to all your registered troops. You can reset and re-buy them at any time.

How the battle works. Troops are divided into three floors by Power and fight one-on-one, from lowest to highest. When a floor is cleared, the survivors move to the other floors. When one alliance has no troops left, the other wins the Clash.

The four results

Your result comes from both phases together. It decides your rewards and whether your alliance’s Tier goes up or down:

Only the top 20 alliances on the server can enter. Your first Tier promotion also unlocks a Duel-themed Alliance Honor Exhibit.

The Clash Shop

Duel Cards buy buffs for all your registered troops. Each buff has 5 levels; you can reset and re-buy at any time.

The Clash uses troops given by the game at your highest trainable level, led by your own heroes: 2 squads, and 3 on older servers. Clash losses are the game’s troops, not yours.

Tiers and timing

First promotions pay from 1,500 Diamonds (Rookie) up to 5,000 (Prime). The Duel Honor Exhibits give +1% up to +5% Troops ATK. The whole event takes 9 days: 23.5 h preview, 0.5 h matching, the 6 duel days (24 h each, the last one 34 h), 13.5 h lineup sign-up, 0.5 h settlement and 24 h of results. It used to be called the Alliance Golden Cup.
