Refer to the challenge page for the basic info:
https://mwomercs.com...type=challenges

Tier 1 - 3-day Premium (picture info missing) - probably 10 wins
Tier 2 - Free Mechbay - probably 20 or 25 wins
Tier 3 - 6.5m C-bills - probably 50 wins

Without knowing what the requirements are, what do you think would be good requirements?

Anything that involves teamwork

I dunno, it is possible to screw this up somehow...

Hope it will be kills AND assists.

Kills only brings the meta. And wins bring the farmers.

They could try match score totals one of these days.

Edit, it says lance challenge... teamwork??

I'm going to guess it is making teams of 4 in the group queue, and probably winning x games.

[Vertigo 1]

"Lance challenge" what exactly does that mean? That I will have to be with the same lance mates for the duration of the challenge? Or just be grouped up in general?

Yeah, kills doesn't bring ANY negative effects in team play.

No one would EVER just shoot at anything in front of them to score a last hit.

Lol... Cross your fingers...

If it is indeed group only challenge, I am just gonna take it easy in solo-q during the weekends--saves a few hair from turning white. Hope the challenge will extend to Monday. Perhaps Marik Monday Madness might entice me to group up later on.

I also wouldn't be surprised if we see waves of "omg get 12 man drops out of the group queue" cries.

I'm thinking:

Time for people to be aware of NARC + LRMs even more than ever.

And AMS. A coordinated lance all totting AMS is very good deterrent to LRMs, as smart Lurmers will try to look for easier targets instead.

Well, the rules are official:

It seems to benefit lights in conjunction with an LRM boat.

I guess there's some qq to be had.

This is a shatty event among shatty events.
Going through the "interface" and inviting someone should give you a free mech bay.

Paying would actually be less pain than farming this one.

[Chemie]

so you need about 20 points for the 950 to be aligned to the previous "50 games" challenge. I suspect that is optimistic for points per game to expect.

[Captain Quirk]

The challenge should be renamed LRM, Tag, and NARC challenge

[Johnny Reb]

Heh, this challenge was a breeze and not torture like last week!
