The Day Zero Cup
The perfect chance to start playing TRV for the very first time. There are over 200,000 Wisdom Points available for players!
Many say they’ve waited long and prayed for this fine day,
Many claim they think that Summoning is in fact the true game.
Here exists a spot in time where we can almost say,
That the playing ground is levelled now, and the Blood Queen thinks the same.
In the air and strong of late, the feel of Wisdom lingers,
It seems as if, mayhap by chance, it has almost even tripled.
And the Queen has offered Champs new and old, and those who’ve never played before;
A giant pot of Wisdom for all those that prayed for more.
The Day Zero Cup (DZC) is the Blood Queen’s effort to level the playing field before she begins her demonic Summoning protocol. It marks the day where all Battlemasters are equal, the starting point for The Red Village game. An opportunity for all to start from the bottom and work their way into the Hall of Fame. Think of this as the PERFECT opportunity to start playing The Red Village.
For the DZC, the Blood Queen is offering at least double Wisdom Points (WP) for every single Tournament a Champion enters, allowing you to position yourself in the best possible way for Summoning and the future. On top of this, she is also offering gigantic pools of Wisdom for Champions that participate, Champions that win, and Champions that achieve certain milestones over the course of the DZC.
The DZC is a fun Championship focused on progression and The Red Village game itself. There is no need to grind; but grinding is rewarded. A huge number of Champions will qualify and be rewarded.
Unlike in other, similar games, in The Red Village, players are able to unveil information about their Champions’ actual fighting traits - their strength, defence, attack, and omega, using Wisdom. Every time a Champion participates in a Free Tournament, they collect 1 WP. Every time a Champion participates in a Paid Tournament, they collect 4 WP.
They can then use WP to reveal the range in which each of their fighting traits sit; the more WP they have, the smaller these ranges get. This is vital for the next phase of The Red Village; Summoning (known elsewhere as breeding), because it allows players to understand what their Champions are actually good at and use this information to find other Champions with which to Summon.
Doing so allows players to maximise their chances of Summoning stronger, more effective, and better earning Champions. For a deep dive into Wisdom, and how it relates to Summoning, please read our guide to Summoning, Part III.
The DZC is split into two parts; one specifically for Mystic Champions, the other for Genesis Champions. The format follows the same logic for each of them. The goal of the DZC is for Champions to put together their best 5 Tournaments in a row.
- Players do not have to stop competing after a string of good 5 Tournaments; even if your Champion competes in 83 Tournaments during the DZC but its best were Tournaments #6-10, those are the five that will count.
- Champions can fight in any 8-Player Tournaments within their own Class (even if their Class changes throughout the DZC). They can also participate in Bloodbaths, but 1v1s do not count.
- The Leaderboard will be calculated based off (and in order of priority)
- For and against on damage
- Number of wins
- Number of seconds
- Number of placed
- Highest hit dealt at anytime within the 5 fights
- Random coin toss
