Dear Kings and Queens,

Polish your boots and limber up, because The Soccer Cup is here again for 2022. Coach Miller will be joining you once more in your quest for victory on the pitch! The Event will start on beta on April 27th. Train your team, play your way to glory, and earn some fantastic rewards along the way!

Training

On the pitch, you will advance the ball up the field by deciding which player to pass to. In doing so, you will also get closer to the goal.

Choose your strategy wisely as each pass up the pitch matters; a short pass will use fewer energy drinks, but a long pass will reach the goal faster! Each pass offers different rewards and varying odds of winning the Daily Special. The question mark above every player will show the potential reward from passing the ball to them.

Players lose stamina with every pass; stamina is replenished through energy drinks ( tinydrink.png ). Complete quests in order to get more. You may also find a small amount of Energy Drinks in regular incidents around your city.

Player Cards

As you progress through the event, you will gather Player Cards. Each new card will either unlock a new player or increase the level of the one you already have. The 'Team' button will show you all the Player Cards you've collected so far. Their current level will also be shown on the 'Training' screen next to their card. Adding a new player to your team means you will also be able to pass the ball to this player in the training arena. The higher level your player is, the higher your chance is to get double the rewards. You can see the double reward chance on the player cards of each player.

Note: you can also get Player Cards by passing the ball to players. Specifically, you can get certain position cards from passing the player of that position.

Tournament Matches

Tournament Matches are where you can have a face-off against other players to climb the ranking table. Players who have seen this event before may notice some differences this year in the way the Tournament Matches work! Upon hitting "Play Match" you can still choose the difficulty of the match you will play, between easy, medium, and hard. Your team will then face your opponent and you will need to decide which players to choose; select the 'change team setup' icon in the bottom right of the match window to change your players. Remember: each player has their favorite position to play in, represented by the colored symbol on their card. Each player will 'duel' their opponent, and you can choose wrong here so pay attention to the hints! Choosing the wrong player for each position will result in a negative outcome, so take care! Of course, the more difficult your opponent, the greater the rewards and ranking points!

Once you finish selecting your team, click on the button in the middle of the screen to use a tournament ticket ( tinyticket.png ) and complete the match. These tickets will replenish over time, but you can earn more of them by completing quests, finding them in regular incidents in your city, or purchasing them with diamonds.

Winning a match will earn you Ranking Points and a reward chest. The reward chest you win depends on the difficulty you choose. Each reward chest has a chance to win the Tournament Daily Special, which is different from the Training Daily Special, meaning that on each day there are two different daily special prizes you can aim for!

Do not despair if you can't make the victory quite yet! Losing is not the only option: you can also end a match with a draw and win some Ranking Points and a smaller reward chest.

Rankings

Every tournament match victory earns you Ranking Points, which will determine your global ranking and will move you up the League Table. With higher ranking comes better rewards! At the end of the event, you will receive additional special rewards based on your league. You can view which league you are in by clicking on the league trophy in the tournament arena.

This year, we provide rewards to the whole list of top 50 highest ranked players globally! All players from this list will receive something extra, and the first 10 players will get unique avatars. Naturally, the first 3 players in the global rankings will get the most prominent rewards. However, compared to the last year's rankings, you get way more chances to score extra rewards for your efforts!

Be aware, that other players may want to also get into the higher ranks, but only a certain amount of players can stay there. Make sure that you always gain enough Ranking Points in order to not fall in ranks.

Click on the Trophy to view the League Table Check potential additional rewards you can get Top 10 gets additional rewards and an exclusive avatar

Dear Kings and Queens,
On Wednesday, April 27th, our Soccer Event returns!

This is the place to be if you have any questions about it or would like to discuss it with other players.
Please keep in mind that your opinion may differ from the opinions of other players, you don't have to convince each other of anything here. :)


We appreciate your feedback!

Please write your feedback in a factual and constructive way and stay on topic.
So that we can pass your feedback on to the developers, the following points would be important to note:
  • Feedback that only contains one sentence like "Yay, scored a goal!" is not helpful. Please make sure to include reasons for your opinion.
  • The same goes for positive feedback. We are happy about it of course, but describing what exactly you like is always very helpful!
  • Limit your feedback to the actual content. Feedback like "You should improve X" or feedback that refers to other game content or previous events is not helpful.
  • Use the "Like" button if another player has already reflected your opinion well.

Thank you very much and have fun!

Sincerely,
Your Forge of Empires Team

Dear Kings and Queens,

Today we will make some balancing changes to the Gentiana Windmill. We have increased the Forge Points from 10 to 11 Forge Points, slightly increased the Goods amount from the random production and removed the need for motivation.  
over 2 years ago - Juber - Direct link
Dear Kings and Queens,

Tomorrow, we will make further balancing changes to the Event. Please see the list of the changes below:
  • We have removed the supply boost from the Gentiana Windmill (level 6-8) and added a defense boost for your attacking army to the final level.
  • The Olive Tree Path now provides 4% attack for your attacking army (instead of 3% previously).
  • The Rocky Path now provides 5% defense for your attacking army (instead of 4% attack for your defending army).
  • We have adjusted the amount of goods from the Tournament Rank rewards.
  • We have increased the chance for Daily Specials in the Tournament. We have slightly increased the chance for daily specials and added a 15% chance to win 10 player cards to all reward chests in the Tournament.
Thank you very much for providing your feedback and tell us what you think about these changes here.
