Hello everyone!

Love is in the air, and thanks to the wonderful support from the HiRez team, we're gonna have an event this Valentine's Day to reflect that. Let's get into it.


What is this event about?

Valentine's Day 2021 Event is an event where you'll be matching with random reddit users and playing games with them to earn rewards!

When is the event taking place?

The event is taking place from 00:01 UTC to 23:59 UTC on Valentine's Day 14.02.2021..

What do I need to do before the event?

First, you need to link your reddit account with your Smite account. This process shouldn't take long and will be fairly quick, and is required to participate in all the future events.

To start, click on this link and just press send message, and S.T.A.R. will respond to you within a minute! Then just follow the instructions she gives you and you'll be done! If, for some reason, you aren't able to link your account, follow the help link S.T.A.R. provides! Linking your account is a one-time event, and it'll share between events! You DO NOT need to provide any account info besides your Smite username and DO NOT send a message with your email or passwords. Those aren't required for the bot and is strictly against the TOS!

On the day of the event

The event is now active!

Ready to play some games? Send this message to S.T.A.R.! Once you've sent the message, she'll offer you an option to queue with a specific server.

Once you do that, you'll get a response from S.T.A.R. saying she found you a partner to play with! Then, either contact that person on reddit or add them in game in Smite, and queue to play matches with them to earn some points.! Don't like the partner you got? Report them here or request a new partner by queueing again.

Points and rewards

As mentioned before, you earn points from following sources:

  • 1 πŸ’– point for each match played with an assigned partner. That means that you must be on the same team as your partner, fighting opposite sides does not count!

  • 1 extra πŸ’– point if you win the match you're playing!

  • 1 extra πŸ’– point if you play with any skins from the Valentine's Day Chest! You can also use skin boosters!

  • 1 extra πŸ’– point if the match you are playing is a 2v2 match of the day that will be available on Valentine's Day!

That means that you can get up to 4 points per match! By collecting a certain amount of points, you'll unlock the following rewards:

  • By collecting 5 πŸ’– points you will unlock a limited Valentine's Day flair on the subreddit!

  • By collecting 10 πŸ’– points you will get a 'Candy Hearts' Jump Stamp code in the game!

  • The pair that collects the most πŸ’– points will be crowned Valentine's Day King and Queen here on the leaderboard, and will each receive a 400 gem code! If two or more pairs played the same amount, the winners will be decided randomly.

Rules

While this event isn't an official HiRez event, some rules still apply. Players breaking the following rules may be excluded from any future participation:

  • Constantly requesting partner rematches to match with a friend or a specific person

  • Matching with a partner but then declining in-game requests, and then requesting other matches

  • Matching with a partner and queuing on different servers from the ones you queued in to cause lag

  • Matching with a partner but declining queues, not selecting gods, or intentionally AFKing or trolling in the game

  • Matching with a partner but being abusive and/or harassing them or other players

Important note

When linking or playing game, make sure your profile isn't hidden! The matches won't count if it is.

Leaderboard

Valentine's Day 2021 King: TBA

Valentine's Day 2021 Queen: TBA

Titles above will be randomly given to the winning pair


And that's about it! Feel free to drop any specific questions about the event you might have down below and I hope you have a great time!

Kinda "big brother is watching" vibes you when you're asking to link our smite info and say you can see what skins we use.

Haha that's fair. I should've mentioned that that's all data provided by the public Hirez API, which is why your profile should be public! This info can be received by anyone with HiRezAPI access, including sites like Smite Guru and similar!

Valentine's Day Bros just doesn't have the same ring to it :)

So winning an event only gives 400 gems, and if two pairs win, it's a coin flip which one gets the gems.

That's a little lame, but it's better than nothing. Okay, I didn't realize this is basically a fan event with little input from Hi-Rez. It's pretty rad, then.

The chance of two pairs collecting the same amount of points is low, and I'm looking into rewards for everyone :)

Yeah, I was misinformed about this event. After a little digging, I've changed my mind. Great idea!
