Hello Everyone,

We have an exciting event coming to Animation Throwdown: Winter Clash!

Winter Clash will begin on Tuesday, December 11 at 18:00 UTC and will end on Friday, December 14 at 18:00 UTC.

Winter Clash is a challenge meant for later-game players who have already unlocked the Secret Fight Club (SFC). It's designed to give players a few difficult and impactful battles each day of the event. Where other events can sometimes require a few days before the battles become challenging, we're hoping that this event is immediately engaging and inspires some new, unique deck strategies.

Read below for more info and please share your feedback before, during, and after the Winter Clash. We may hold a similar event again in the future and will take your feedback into consideration for improvements.

Stay tuned for even more holiday updates & community activities!

Winter Clash Overview

Winter Clash is a non-refillable PVP Challenge. It will have a similar format to regular Challenges, with a few twists:

The global Battleground Effect (BGE) will not be in effect

The defending player (your opponent) will take the first turn

There will be no sleep delay on the opponent's first played card

There will be a special BGE that buffs specific combos

This Challenge has modified scoring

Only players who have reached SFC can participate

Winter Clash BGE

The special BGE for this Winter Clash will focus on combos.

The following list of combos and power cards (also pictured above) will receive a 100% boost to Attack, Health, and all skills:

Gun Safety Peter

Santa Killer Hayley

Santa Killer Steve

Eggnog Roger

Spinout Louise

Fowl Fighter Teddy

Heavenly Hank, Santa Bill

Road Kill

Penguin Conservator

Ready for Santa

Santa Bender.

Although the image shows Legendary versions of these combos, all recipes and Power Cards for the combos will be affected.

Starting at level 25, enemy cards and heroes will get a 10% boost to Health, Attack, and all Skills. This boost increases by 10% every level thereafter.

You will be able to tap the BGE icon in-game to view the affected combos and all of their recipes. The BGE affects a variety of combos; including farmable, reward, and premium card recipes.

Combo Mastery will also be in effect for both attackers and defenders in this event.

Matchmaking, Scoring, Rewards

Players will start the event at an appropriate challenge level based on their current SFC rating.

Winning will earn points based on your current challenge level, and will increase your challenge level. Losing will cause you to drop a level (to a minimum of 1), but you will still earn points equal to the lower level. In other words, the longer you win, the more challenging your opponent but the more points you will earn. If you are defeated, you will still earn points for your participation.

Earn as many points as you can to rank up and earn sweet event rewards!

Shop

A special box will be available in the shop, offering cards or combos that are helpful for the Winter Clash.
