Hmmm, I wonder what the 200 represents? Let's hope it isn't the number of wins you need in each category! LOL

Probably working off the point system like the last few challenges.

200 wins in every match type. Fun!

Definitely not a points system. Nope. Wins.

I sincerely hope it's not a "200 pt (mode type) medallion" for this.

It's probably going to be 200 pts like the previous point based challenge (it's really not hard to get with the point system that was used).... but it says nothing about the rewards.

For once I might actually have a little bit of spare time this weekend to use on the constant spam of challenges...

So a 200pt game in each mode then? That's probably harder than the last one.

Here's my guess on the reward progression:

Day 1 (Conquest): 3-day Premium Time
Day 2 (Assault): Mechbay
Day 3 (Skirmish): 3m C-bills or 1500GXP

Here's my preference on the reward progression:

Day 1, 2, 3: 200MC per day

You can buy 2 Mechbays, or acquire some premium time, or buy some one-shot camos (they are generally cheap MC-wise).

Whatever... I'm sure someone will leak the info out.

what I really want to know is what the rewards are, if it's just cockpit items I'll pass

C-bills, Prem time, or hangar bays I'll pick it up.

my computer hdd is down for the count due to overheating and if the rewards are high enough I might just pick up a spare one from the store.

Yeah, I'm game for the rewards if they result in usable things. Cockpit items are distracting to me, and I don't use any despite having a handful of them.

Even the GXP from 2nd lance challenge didn't particularly appeal to me. I made it to the first tier for the 3 days premium time, but didn't care to get tier 2 or 3 because I had a really busy weekend.

200 matches in 1 day? That would be ~17 hours playtime if every match would only be ~5 minutes without search and loading times.
Not going to happen.

A 200 point match with the previous point system?
More egoists who only bring meta builds and killsteak left and right? No thx, I hope not.
The previous point system would also defeat the purpose of Assault and Conquest and turn every match in a Skirmish.

I think they have something new for us.

We need a new feature where faster mechs can roll a Direwhale faster down a hill.

you shoot them on the edge of the loading bay holes on the upper deck of the wharf on Crimson straits... they slowly fall over then fall though the hole... its brilliant!
