The honorary Board of Earth-Space Transition (B.E.S.T.) is not done with you, yet!
During the final weekend of the Alpha playtest, we’re hosting a new, exciting contest to find the Top 3 Players for each Hunter.
Compete for glory and valuable prizes. Showcase your skills in the Last Stand PvP mode.
Join the challenge and rise to the top.
General Information
Game Mode: Last Stand PvP
Dates: 31.05.2024 9:00 UTC - 03.06.2024 9:00 UTC
Players will go toe-to-toe to prove they are the very elite in their respective Hunter categories. All players are automatically entered into the contest if they fullfil the participation rules.
Participation Rules:
- Play at least 10 games with the same level 30+ Hunter.
- You can play as many games as you like afterwards—only your top 10 scores per Hunter will count.
- Top 3 combined scores per Hunter earn prizes.
- Winners will be announced on Discord!
Competition Format
Scoring System:
Points are awarded based on your performance in each match:
- Unique Hunter Kill: 1 point (first kill on each individual Hunter by you or your teammate)
- Eliminating a Full Squad: 3 points (final blow on the last standing Hunter of a team by you or your teammate)
- Death: -3 points (each death during a match)
- Squad Placement: Points based on final placement (1st place: 6 points, 2nd place: 5 points, etc.)
An example for the scoring system can be found below.
In the event of a tie within the top 3, if you have the same placement with two different types of Hunters, the lower total game number will receive the prizes across the two categories. You can compete with multiple Hunters, but only your best overall placement will receive prizes. The runner-up will take the spot if the placement is equal. If the final placement across multiple Hunters is equal, prizes will be awarded for the Hunter with the least amount of games.
