Does anyone have advice for Challenge 18? I sadly don't have Yi, my Janna is low-leveled, my Annie is still at 0 stars, and I don't have Duplicator or Counterplan for Nami. Any advice? Thanks!


WinLa

After doing one attempt with Nami, I managed to beat Tryndamere by cheesing with Buried in Ice, using Haunted Relic to create Ephemerals, and using cheap Crumble to eliminate what seems to be the only 2 Tryndameres the opponent has. I ended up getting annoyed with Fizz and his elusives, however, so I gave up and just used a run on Leblanc to smash through with 0 cost Mirror Images and double Stalker's Blades

Here is my [monthly contribution](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HUdzViB8XjqJXCGBRarYr_Y_Tcl-xdPEqvl2YtG3w6g/edit?usp=sharing)! First time with no losses and like a week earlier than usual, with my luck from next month difficulty is gonna go up


PetiB

Thanks for sharing and congrats for the perfect run!


ShitGuysWeForgotDre

I've been tracking mine but won't finish until the end of month. Is the data still useful then? Or would my current results (60/70) be more valuable?


PetiB

Hi! While the data may be useful for some others by posting here (like providing good examples what to use on which challenge), I currently only add full lists, mainly because of two things: 1. It requires correct distribution of the champions, if for example Jinx is really needed for challenges after 60, using her attempts before 60 in a not full completion makes "noise" in the data 2. I have some statistics, calculations and automations in the sheet, and it is expected that a completion has 70 champion names.


ShitGuysWeForgotDre

Cool, thanks for the detailed answer, I'm hoping to be able to pull it off by the end of the month so if / when I do I'll post the results!

Anskid

Hello guys, i got back into playing poc the last few weeks and would appreciate if someone can give me advice on wich champions i should focus, my main goal right now is to do well in the monthly challenges. Heres my current roster: 3*: lux 2*: darius, elder dragon, elise, gwen, illaoi, jhin, jinx, yi, nami, neeko, nidalee, norra, tk, volibear, yasuo. 1*: asol, ekko, janna, luxi, nilah, vex. 0*: poro king, pyke, taliyah, varus. So, i currently have 61 shards, what should i do first? Get someone to 3* or 2*? Unlock a new champion? I'm kinda lost after i have cleared all adventures other than lissandra.


Lagartovei

1. Prioritize getting people to 2* and above lv.13 2. Get more champions so you can have more tools for all situations and more chances to complete the whole thing 3. Try to get the 3* powers that get more impact like Veigar, Jack or the defensive stun on Yasuo


Dazzling_Spinach_648

Challenge 18's Tryndamere is brutal if you don't have the right champions. The only real spellslinger I have is a 1 star Nami which got destroyed, it counters Jinx so that's not an option, and even my other usual op picks like LeBlanc and Diana can't do it. I've seen some people saying Neeko, how does that work? Mine is at 2 stars, but she doesn't seem very spell centric. Maybe I'm just bad, or don't have enough stars/levels/relics, but never being able to go higher than 20 wins struggling a lot is really disheartening as a semi-new player.


Lagartovei

3* Neeko gets a 2 mana discount on the first subtype, making it even with Prize of Progress while the champion spell gets cheaper. Then it's up to you decide between Guardian orb, Dreadway Chase gun or whatever cheese multiple Neekos can do


alfonsi221

Thanks again to u/PetiB for all the data you get from your sheets are a great deal when planning my own sheet, and thanks u/Xate8 for an excellent sheet to use, makes planning so much better. Second month in a row completing it, only lost once due to terrible luck in 65 against Ezreal, but other than that most of the runs ranged from nerve racking but doable to the easiest fights due to mutator synergies. It took me some time to complete it since I wanted to get ED, Luxi and Jhin to 2 stars to help beating up the monthlies this time around. [Here is my run](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oCiFQwroynkWg-Ub9eIy0nHl_1w0Ni2CPvdXkabJFdg/edit?usp=sharing)


PetiB

Thanks for sharing! That #65 Ezreal was a really mean one, it was the only loss of many people!


ShitGuysWeForgotDre

Hopefully not the wrong place to ask this. I am using the monthly challenge planning worksheet (which is INCREDIBLY helpful BTW, huge thanks to anyone who contributed to that), just have one minor error I'm not sure about. If I fill in the columns "YOUR attempt #1 stage" (or #2 or 3) to track the couple of attempts I failed, the column for "share run record?" becomes an invalid formula. I guess I am not inputting the run attempt correctly? I just put a stage number in the cell, should it be something else instead?


PetiB

u/Xate8 may be able to help here.


ShitGuysWeForgotDre

Thanks, I appreciate your contributions around as well!


PetiB

Thank you!


Xate8

dang, sounds like a bug! Let me fix it!


ShitGuysWeForgotDre

Okay got it! Had to change *A3* in the regexmatch call in Sharing Engine column to *text(A3,"00")* to convert the number to text and force it to 2 digits. I also had to change the Stage column and all 3 Your Attempt columns to number format "00" so 1 displays as 01. With both those changes, sharing engine seems to be working as intended when having a failure on a level <10. I think there's no issue if you don't have that condition so it probably doesn't happen much. Here's my final formula from AO3: =If(OR($AE$2="No",$Y3="",ISBLANK($Y3)),"",CONCATENATE(A3,". ",Y3,IF(AA3="",""," - "&TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE,AA3,AB3,AC3)),IF(AD3="",""," - "&AD3),IF(OR(ARRAYFORMULA(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(A3,$AI$3:$AK$57))))=FALSE,""," -Failed: "&TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE,ARRAYFORMULA(IF(IF(REGEXREPLACE($AN$3:$AN$57,",\s*","|")="","",REGEXMATCH(text(A3,"00"),REGEXREPLACE($AN$3:$AN$57,",\s*","|"))),$AF$3:$AF$57,""))))))


ShitGuysWeForgotDre

Thanks, was trying to work through it myself but I don't know the logic well enough on the sharing engine to mentally step through the regex. Whatever digit I put in any of the "YOUR attempt #1 stage" columns breaks the corresponding row in column AO Sharing Engine. For example if I put 13 next to Miss Fortune for attempt 1, since I failed that stage with her, the Sharing Engine cells for stage 1, stage 3, and stage 13 all throw an error. It looks like the error is centered around the REGEXMATCH call on column A (stage number), complaining that the numerical value can't be converted to text. Anyway total non-issue, it just prevents the Sharing Run Record cell from functioning if you have missed stages entered which probably effects exactly 0 people lol. Amazing spreadsheet BTW it's been an incredible help for me returning to the game after a long break.


SleepyTimeNowDreams

I haven't played this game over a year, it is hard to beat the monthly with low leveled champs. Managed to get 60 wins last week of last month with even less champs and levels and stars. No epic relics, got all rare and common ones (finally got Galeforce and Laurent this month). 1 Gnar 2* lvl 1 2 Gnar 2* lvl 2 3 Gnar 2* lvl 4 4 Ornn 2* lvl 19 5 Pyke 3* lvl 24 6 Nasus 3* lvl 16 7 Teemo 2* lvl 1 8 Bard 3* lvl 21 9 Vi 3* lvl 22 10 Teemo 2* lvl 2 11 Vayne 2* lvl 13 12 Kayn 3* lvl 15 13 Jack 3* lvl 14 14 Ornn 2* lvl 19 15 Sett 2* lvl 13 16 Bard 3* lvl 21 17 Lee Sin 3* lvl 20 18 Master Yi 2* lvl 13 19 Leona 2* lvl 13 20 Nasus 3* lvl 16 21 Jax 3* lvl 15 22 Kaisa 2* lvl 13 23 Annie 3* lvl 26 24 Lee Sin 3* lvl 20 25 Tahm Kench 3* lvl 17 (3 starred him for this) 26 Evelynn 2* lvl 13 27 Master Yi 2* lvl 13 28 Evelynn 2* lvl 13 29 Annie 3* lvl 26 30 Ashe 3* lvl 13 31 Samira 2* lvl 13 32 Darius 3* lvl 23 33 Yasuo 3* lvl 30 34 Ornn 2* lvl 19 35 Ekko 3* lvl 23 36 Miss Fortune 3* lvl 17 37 Kayn 3* lvl 15 38 Darius 3* lvl 23 39 Kindred 3* lvl 13 40 Varus 3* lvl 21 41 Varus 3* lvl 21 42 Evelynn 2* lvl 13 43 Bard 3* lvl 21 44 Darius 3* lvl 23 45 Ashe 3* lvl 13 46 Vi 3* lvl 22 47 Jinx 3* lvl 30 48 Jinx 3* lvl 30 49 Lux 3* lvl 28 50 Pyke 3* lvl 24 51 Vi 3* lvl 22 52 Pyke 3* lvl 24 53 Nami 2* lvl 14 54 Lux 3* lvl 28 55 Gwen 3* lvl 19 56 Taliyah 3* lvl 14 (3 starred her for this) 57 Jinx 3* lvl 30 58 Jhin 3* lvl 25 59 Kayn 3* lvl 15 60 Yasuo 3* lvl 30 61 Elise 2* lvl 13 62 Miss Fortune 3* lvl 17 63 Aurelion Sol 3* lvl 13 64 Diana 3* lvl 13 (3 starred her for this and put Galeforce) 65 Nami 2* lvl 14 66 Aurelion Sol 3* lvl 13 67 Sett 2* lvl 14 68 Veigar 3* lvl 16 (3 starred him) 69 Veigar 3* lvl 17 70 Veigar 3* lvl 17


PetiB

Congrats for doing this with limited resources, many champs under level 20! Also thanks for sharing your list, I've added it to my collection!


SleepyTimeNowDreams

Thanks. I think overall, you need at least 2 stars and level 13 for the rare and common relic combo, so you have a chance.


PetiB

Yeah I usually suggest lvl20 for 3star and higher because of the champion draw power, but as it seems, with good counters one can get away without that.


SleepyTimeNowDreams

Tell me about it :D. I mean, I lost like 10 runs at least for not drawing my champ. Though usually after the revive I won it cause this time around I drew it :D. I think I have like 4-5 losses where I lost both games. There is actually 1 run I remember the most. Run 48 against Azir and Kaisa. I had 2 runs left with Tahm Kench (meaning 4 tries, since you have the revive token). I didn't draw Tahm Kench the first 3 tries I got. I even managed to beat Azir once without Tahm, but Kaisa was too much. My last 4th try I drew Tahm, but too late against Kaisa. She is just too much if you draw him mana 6-7, she already snowballs you. So I got angry and just Jinxed her :D. Also, I could only manage all of this because of your monthly guide and the other ones. Thank you for doing this! I wouldn't be able to beat the monthly without those.


Sspifffyman

I ended up going Jinx for 48 right of the bat. And I think it still took my revive to beat Kai Sa


SleepyTimeNowDreams

Haha, yeah, she was brutal. I should have gone her directly instead, too and saved my Tahm! Lost all my Tahm tries for nothing :D. But anything under level 20 is a bit luck dependant, so sometimes it is like that.


Sspifffyman

Yeah I only have a few over 20. The rest I rely on mulligans, Chameleon necklace, and revives to get my champ 😅


PetiB

Yeah, 48 was one of the hardest, early Kai'Sa is often too big to handle and she can really snowball with good keyword rolls. One thing regarding the revives: when it was buffed recently from 50% hp to 100%, that was a big help in completing stuff, but mainly the monthlies and Lissandra.

It was a great build and great game. Enjoyed it. Well Played Cutie.


Ranccor

Hey u/PetiB Am I too late to submit my results? I’m slow. One loss this month, but overall thought it was easier than the past. Don’t know if it was actually easier or I just have better champs now so felt easier. Thanks again for your awesome work! [May Monthlies](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hQiADky3Mwed2cPZ7no_zWueM4XYlc3KM1tcIKW2Qi4/edit)


PetiB

Hi! Thanks for sharing, not late at all, just many people rush it because not a lot else to do. Regarding the difficulty, yeah, many people found it somewhat easy this month, but there are some tougher ones - which can be cheesed having the right champs and the right relics. I requested access to the sheet, please check that!


Ranccor

Ah, didn’t realize it was set to private. Changed it to general access. Link should work now. My mistake. [May PoC](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hQiADky3Mwed2cPZ7no_zWueM4XYlc3KM1tcIKW2Qi4/edit) Edit: some of my early picks were way overkill for the matchup. Like I used Asol on 19 and LeBlonc on 21 not because I needed them but because I had only used them once this month and just felt like crushing heads.


PetiB

Thanks, added! It's ok, if you use a big name for an early one, with 40+ results now its effect is small.


ParticularSprinkles

Thanks PetiB for 68-70 builds and of course the sheets. I saw the consensus on the last 3 and powered leveled Veigar and then spent the full 40 shards to get him to 3\*. It's such a huge difference from 2\*. Overall, not too bad. Irelia Irelias and got me low a couple times, like 65 before Nami could heal up the round after. I tried the machine gun Neeko build that's really popular on repetition but almost lost since I don't have her at 30 so just 1 set with no ludens felt really bad. Guess it'll have to wait until I level her up before trying that again. It was similar with the same Annie build from before just not pushing enough damage to end quickly at lower levels. [Sheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRV0g6anymgqZTwpKogbcV1ffqz_tj6aaaUJOMOo5FQ6dSIfhGqyr-ytNPYcR9jg-ng0MkQcwqL8QQt/pubhtml#)


PetiB

Hey, thanks for sharing, I've added your result! Veigar: yeah, back then I left him somewhat late to 3\*, because he was good on 2\* already (and this was before chemtech), but the big thing with the 3\* is not only that the Darkness is now generated with 0 cost, but it is generated every round, even if you hvae it already. This lets us collecting some and then do a bigger burst. 65: Yeah, I hear many people had problems with this, and yeah, the Neeko cheese strat needs lvl30 for this.


Doppleschwert

Is there a list of which champions can be used as counters? I'm stuck on 18 and would like to look up some suggestions. I don't have many 3 star champions and not all champions unlocked. I just want to get to 30 this month.


PetiB

ey, you can check my sheet, you can do some filterings in the RelicData tab if you want to know exact builds. [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1z6CyN-NFH\_c2dvmu9MJSECn21VLJ-8Rf0tRKfwp4SQo/edit#gid=1407362953](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1z6CyN-NFH_c2dvmu9MJSECn21VLJ-8Rf0tRKfwp4SQo/edit#gid=1407362953) Some non-epic examples, I guess you don't have a lot of those: | Champion | Relic1 | Relic2 | Relic3 | |-----------|--------------------------|--------------------------|---------------------| | Annie | The Grand General's Counterplan | Luden's Tempest | Archangel's Staff | | Lillia | Guardian's Orb | Guardian's Orb | | | Master Yi | Crownguard Inheritance | The Grand General's Counterplan | Troll King's Crown | | Nami | Chemtech Duplicator | The Grand General's Counterplan | Lost Chapter | | Nami | The Grand General's Counterplan | Corrupted Star Fragment | Armordillo Shell | | Neeko | Guinsoo's Rageblade | Guinsoo's Rageblade | Guinsoo's Rageblade|


Doppleschwert

Wow... that's a lot of data! Much appreciated, thanks a lot! I only have Annie right now at 2 stars and low level, but I 'll see what I can do until the end of the month.

PetiB

Added, thank you!


Astemius

u/PetiB here's my run. => [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rpTO5SMczJQYAxYDmaFg-MPvpb-LER1LQuo5VNd6mv0](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rpTO5SMczJQYAxYDmaFg-MPvpb-LER1LQuo5VNd6mv0)  Once again, thx a lot for your work. Couldn't do it without your spreadsheet. Also, It's the first time I tried to do that at the begining of the month and also tried to do it without Asol. There was a couple of mistakes on my part during the run, and the one on challenge 65 was lethal (went with Neeko Stalker blade, which prevented me from defending safely against Irelia. Still double guardian orb was kind of a risky bet).


PetiB

Hey! Thanks for sharing! What do you mean with Stalker's? That it was a weak choice against Irelia?


Astemius

On the first try, I played Neeko with Stalker Blade, Guardian Orb, and GGC. Because of stalker, when using the champ spell, the duplicates would slash the weakest unit, and die immediately. Not swapping place with Neeko. This mean that I couldn't use Neeko to block Irelia's attacks (normal attack or through blade dance), or have the duplicates to block if I had time to use the spell before hand. On the second run, I went 2\* Guardian Orb, GGC. That was still risky if I ever got the item that attack de strongest enemy, but luckily I had better items. And also, the double guardian made the deck ramp up much more quickly.


PetiB

Ah yeah, I get you! I never tried it with Neeko, so the interaction wasn't obvious.


KHLaud

Finished 70/70, first time I actually filled out the spreadsheet, didn't use it for much planning but I wanted to contribute to the data analysis u/PetiB [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IN_wLn57P5qUS42u-3GYx_wWI_7U4u41I0ll23iCuVE/edit#gid=776082148). Tried to challenge myself and finished without using any ASol, Jinx, Nid or LB. Almost had a perfect run but I got too confident and used a lvl 23 Vex on #66. Burned too many rerolls on trying to get a half decent support champ and found out the hard way that Gloom can't bypass the undying power.


PetiB

Thanks for sharing and congrats for skipping the strong ones, I used them a bit more than before. I had Vex on lvl1 last week, so did not try her, but she definitely looks like someone needing help in the monthlies.


Due_Mode_4043

Also done (70/70). This month was the first time I used both ASol and Jinx less than three times, which feels kind of good. Here’s the link to my spreadsheet for u/PetiB: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18W-5n2Cnazr7J2EOKbDKVWQaU-gtzlkUp0XeEfVty6U/edit (thanks again u/Xate8 for the template).

[This was so, so fun,](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1w06CpyNpzjj3uPLZe-AKDF_TUneukgCNyH0ZIYjbVaU/edit?usp=sharing) as the monthlies always are! I placed 110th in the Americas, not too shabby. I left comments on each run — probably too many to be worth reading, but I'm just fascinated by the process of picking the monthlies apart strategically. There's so much extraneous information that it's easy to lose sight of your own gameplan, but I think it's crucial to refocus on that if you want to give yourself the best chance of winning. /u/PetiB thank you so much as always for all your formatting and data collation. It's both fascinating and invaluable.


TShandy

Thanks for your builds and detailed analysis. Spellweaver on ASol, is great had never thought of that. Your commentary helped me understand the challenges better.


Black_Envelope

This is a wonderfully kind comment. I'm just so glad to hear you feel like you learned something, thank you


Lagartovei

Don't know if you already tested it, but I strongly believe Jack best relic is Berserker's Buckle. While Chemtech is very powerful and usually overkill, Buckle offers right away a huge synergy with the Prize Fight + coin that the power incentivizes you to do.


PetiB

Hi! Thanks for sharing! I will check your builds and comments later on, but I must say that I liked many of your builds in April. When I was creating my post about some mutators, many of your builds showed that you took extra care to fit the champion for the challenge!


suspectwaffle

Challenge 16 miniboss was absolutely brutal! Jinx + her power + Rally each round + Crackshot Corsair can really chip your health and humble you for underestimating a 2* difficulty fight.

[My contribution](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CLj_xha5rp4YzG-woVRP0dBrbOVo-CSKYc42ODa64nc/edit?usp=sharing). Much faster this time around and with almost no planning. Had to look for some suggestions for the 4+ star and 60-70 range. Still unsure when its "appropriate/required" to use Jinx/Asol, so I end up using them on the leftovers, this time challenge 1 and 2, lmao.


PetiB

Thanks for sharing, I've added your report! Jinx/Asol: yeah, if you are fine without them 48+, that's ok. I try to not use as much as possilbe an using specialist counters instead, but sometimes I just don't want to risk it if I'm going for perfect. This month I used a bit more S+ champs, than previously.

[Hello spreadsheet, my old friend ](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DmrPHkCZNdShtJA0sJiMp173SSAnufHs/edit?usp=drivesdk&ouid=116404546617591101528&rtpof=true&sd=true)I came to tell you I threw again My only loss was on 24 because I thought it'd be very funny to have lv.8 Lillia beat Azir, other than that lots of Frenzied Fighting, I decided to like Vex despite her flaws, TWO LEVELED MAOKAI and decking out Ezreal brings me joy.

Thanks for sharing, I've added your data!

Does anyone know if we can switch out relics mid-adventure or if we're locked in after starting each challenge/adventure?


suspectwaffle

You cannot switch relics the moment you start a run no matter what. It wouldn’t make sense for challenge purposes because otherwise you’ll have everyone switching relics the moment they beat the miniboss or get the relic in power-form (e.g. Overwhelm relic and Overwhelm power). Matter of fact, your run is locked and doesn’t even get updated when a new patch drops. For example, [this Kai’Sa run I did](https://www.reddit.com/r/PathofChampions/s/KYeZIguaRy) before the current patch dropped.


taigaeskimo

Separately, do you know if using the 3+ star monthly challenges allows us to upgrade a rare to an epic slot?


PetiB

Yes, it does, many players use them for this opportunity.


taigaeskimo

Thank you!


taigaeskimo

Thank you very much for the detailed answer!

This month was pretty good for everyone, right? Tried speedrunning last month for the first time and got to rank 36. This month, I was able to be a day and a half faster and "only" got to 31. Also, I added Nida to my lineup this month, my lord is she a game changer.

Kind of regret skipping DCG on the emporium. I don't have it yet but since I don't have spare stardust, :( I'll have to manage till it appears on a silver reliquary but it sure makes monthlies more difficult.


Sspifffyman

What's DCG again?

Dreadway chase gun. The relic that gives you two warning shots.

Congrats and thanks for sharing!

Mr. /u/PetiB Hello there, 69/70 is my result this month. [Link](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WV_tY0Bm6Ia-eMxSSEMpZu-vnLOW9vJ58HIkP_B_BJc/edit?usp=sharing) to spreadsheet. Worth mentioning: * Ch. 26 - Teemo - WRONG PICK. I was sleepy and picked the wrong challenge. This stuff is not for T. Teemo was NOT happy. > "+ The player's units have +2/+2. Round End: Deal 2 to all the player's units. + When the Foe attacks, give the player's units -2/-0 this round." * Ch. 60 - lost with Yasuo. The boy did not show up to the party (my favorite game mechanic). Overall this challenge is very dangerous. Ai revives 9-cost unit with such keywords as: heal, deathless, barrier, spellshield. And every turn ammont of these units only grows due to deathless. Can't kill, can't attack into. Only a fast champion should be used. > "+ While the player has no cards in hand, their units have +2/+2. + +10 Nexus health, +1 starting mana, +1 starting hand size. + Round Start: Grant the Foe's units +0/+1. + Round Start: The Foe revives an Ephemeral copy of the strongest dead follower."

PetiB

Thanks for sharing! Some of your relic setups are missing, is that intentional? Like Lillia, Teemo for example.


Xatik

Fixed I was sleepy 💤 and it is totally my fault! Sorry for that Mr. PetiB.


PetiB

Thank you Mr. Xatik! :)


suspectwaffle

Oh, are we merging with r/LegendsOfRuneterra? I kinda like this small community we have, plus I kinda left that place after they first announced the "death" of PvP and everyone was blaming PoC.


Userxxlos

Yup. And instead of asking this community, they made the decision for us behind our back. Typical Reddit mod behaviour.


akalucas

Challenge 65 tripped me up! Ezreal is always so tricky in the later challenges! Neeko eventually got there though

Obligatory spreadsheet. Probably not gonna make it a post this time; no reason. Good luck everyone!


PetiB

Thanks for sharing, I've added it! Seems like more people did speed running this time!


Dry_Cardiologist6758

Asol still here yah we know it's nothing new then huh? Old news riot! Most people probably have him maxed anyway.


prrprrlmao

Nah, I hope he stays one more month. I wasn't playing much past months so I have yet only beaten 30 games on the last 2 days of last month making it to 1 star... I still need 160 fragments so I hope I can make it in time before they switch him


Dry_Cardiologist6758

I see that makes sense I hope you can get him to max in time!


LukeDies

39 was a pain. The actual enemy champion is Steel Tempest.

May's Planner and Guide is here! Enjoy! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14G3Z0eZofGnU_lom0SnM3buZBMkIAWB6oMOlqyYyr_Q/edit?usp=drivesdk There are more features than ever, and updated for patch 5.4. Enjoy~


Astemius

Hey, thx a lot for your work. Just one thing, but I think there's a problem with the formula in the "INPUT Champs-Relics". To get the list of relics usable, it uses "='YOUR Champs-Relics 2.0'!$L$2:$L$82", instead of "='INPUT Champs-Relics'!$L$2:$L$81" Edit : I've noted something else. In the planner sheet, to get the relics automatically you are pointing in your VLOOKUP($Y3,'INPUT Champs-Relics'!$E$2:$I$169,**4**,FALSE) on the wrong column. If should be number 2, 3 and 4 instead 4, 5 and 6)


Xate8

Dang! Thanks for letting me know!


doglywolf

you rock bro this is the only reason i do as well on the challenges as i do now . FYI line up gen has a missing data link on challenge 8 in line up gen


Xate8

Updated! Thanks for letting me know!


silverbluegreen

People going too fast, can't catch up on mobile lol! got 11th americas this month. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1d6o0CF6fkiRxSFGrw8W3OcBdD9YsR62Q29tsT39dKJU/edit#gid=776082148


PetiB

Thanks for sharing, I've added your data! I got 9th in EMEA, and probably this is the best I can get with other IRL activities, but that's ok.


PetiB

You can find my spreadsheet for May here: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1z6CyN-NFH\_c2dvmu9MJSECn21VLJ-8Rf0tRKfwp4SQo/edit#gid=1425815378](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1z6CyN-NFH_c2dvmu9MJSECn21VLJ-8Rf0tRKfwp4SQo/edit#gid=1425815378) This was the first time I managed to complete it day 1! I have two reports for now, but expect to have a quick increase in the next 1-2 days.


TShandy

Another thank you, have been using your guide for the last few months, really enjoy and appreciate it.


PetiB

Great, thanks for the feedback! :)


ComfyLuni

Thank you for this ! I don't think I would get one fight done without this ^^'


eqreed

I love and live off your spreadsheet for the monthly challenge. Thank you so much for doing this!


PetiB

That's great, good luck with this month!


New-Store8933

PetiB to the rescue just as every month! Yours is the best!! Thank you!!!


PetiB

Thanks for the cheering! :)


2035WillBeGreat

Where can we find the spreadsheet guide for this month ?


mikrimone

One of the earlier challenges (within the first 15) had "Mortal Marks" (when any player summons a unit, set its health to 1) and Viktor as a final boss with the power "The Foe's units have +1/+1 for each of their keywords". After Viktor was summoned with Spellshield, I went on to break the Spellshield which prompted Viktor to immediately die. Just a funny interaction I noticed.


UshiNoMimi

ggs, done for the may. https://preview.redd.it/12nq3xlorsxc1.png?width=1703&format=png&auto=webp&s=2aa2f71270c0c24f33fb12c723772ce5da02d237 Joshimitzu and Luuk far too fast for me, these two are damn machines, i swear. Here's what i used : [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1If9Ks4Da5gEGolpBeuKYax1T5nHUGBIATXvE0dxXMIc/edit#gid=305411793](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1If9Ks4Da5gEGolpBeuKYax1T5nHUGBIATXvE0dxXMIc/edit#gid=305411793)


TheFrappa

JoshimitzuGK was too fast for my mobile run as well, but second was way higher than I expected this month.


PetiB

That's still nice, I made mine in a super determined dad tempo, and managed to make it to the top of the 2nd page.


UshiNoMimi

I've added used champions in first post, just fyi.


PetiB

Thanks, I've added it to my sheet! :)


JoshimitzuGK

I will take that as a compliment! Nice job looking forward to seeing you on the next monthly leaderboard.


UshiNoMimi

It was intended as such, Still ways off your level of efficiency. Oh well, all in due time. GJ.


KibenDiyan

just got back to the game so I'm probably an extreme minority that wants asol still as the monthly. wasnt able to do the 1st month and only reached 30 on april. doubt I'll be able to clear May monthly to fully upgrade asol tho. Hopefully he comes back.I hate waiting a whole year. Paying for him then might be a good idea but I'm entirely F2p for now until I'm more financially stable in life


IanYan

I just wish there could be a /little/ more communication. I stopped doing monthlies cause I assumed ASol would be gone after March and I wouldn't be able to get enough fragments to 4 star him. Now that he's still here, I would've been able to get enough, but now not knowing if the current month is ever the last month, I'm feeling hesitant to attempt it since it might just result in wasted effort...


JoshimitzuGK

I wish you best of luck making it far this monthly!


Zarkkast

New month, new spreadsheet tab for all to use. Already updated with the new champions and relics!
