Whiteout Survival Alliance Showdown Guide

In Whiteout Survival, some of the best events are those that see you having to work with your Alliance to come out on top. The Alliance Showdown does exactly this and combines it with some of the elements from the daily rankings found in events such as Hall of Chiefs, King of Icefield, and State of Power. In this Whiteout Survival Alliance Showdown Guide, we’ll show you exactly how this event works, what rewards are available, and provide tips on how to make the most of it.

Overview

The Whiteout Survival Alliance Showdown Event is only open to the top 20 Alliances in each State. Provided you meet this condition, when the event begins, you will be paired against another top 20 Alliance from either within your State or, more often than not, another State. The event lasts for 6.5 days with each day representing a new “Match” where points can be earned by undertaking different activities as seen in other events such as King of Icefield and State of Power. Interestingly, this event also ties in with the Tundra Trade Route Event with points available each day for escorting and raiding trucks.

At the conclusion of each “Match”, the total score earned by each Alliance is calculated and the Alliance with the highest score is awarded a Victory Point. At this point, there are also daily Winning and Losing rewards and 5 Daily Chest point milestone rewards to be earned. At the end of the 6 Matches, the Alliance with the most Victory Points is declared the winner with further rewards distributed accordingly. In addition, there is a final reward available based on the Alliances Star Rating. In the next sections of this Whiteout Survival Alliance Showdown Guide, we will explore each of these things in more detail.

Matches

As mentioned in the previous section of this Whiteout Survival Alliance Showdown Guide, each new day that the event is running represents a new Match between the 2 paired Alliances. Each Match lasts for 24 hours except for the final Match which lasts for 1.5 days. Each new Match features different activities that can be undertaken to earn points though points from raiding and escorting trucks in the Tundra Trade Route Event are consistent throughout. The different ways to earn points in each Match are as follows:

Victory Points

As mentioned previously, the Alliance who scores the highest total amount of points during each Match is declared the winner and is awarded a certain number of Victory Points depending on the Match. At the end of the event, the Alliance with the highest number of Victory Points is crowned the champion with improved rewards to boot. If both Alliances finish with an equal number of Victory Points, then the Showdown is declared a draw with both Alliances receiving the same rewards as if they lost. The number of Victory points earned for winning each Match is outlined in the table below:

Day	Match	Victory Points
1	Rise of the City	1
2	Hero Development	2
3	Pet Training	2
4	Gear Enhancement	2
5	Trade Dominion	2
6	Full-Scale Competition	4

Star Rating

An Alliances Star Rating is an indication of how successful they have been across all Alliance Showdown events they have participated in. For every Alliance Showdown that an Alliance wins, they earn 1 Star Rating, whilst if they lose, they lose 1 Star Rating. This plays a huge role in the Star Rewards that Alliance Members receive at the end of the event, whether they win or lose. In particular, a higher Star Rating will lead to vastly higher Gems, Fire Crystals, and unique Daybreak Island decorations being paid out.

Best Item Usage

It is a hot topic of debate as to whether or not the Alliance Showdown event is worth using all your items on due to the somewhat lackluster rewards on offer. Indeed, many players would recommend only doing enough to earn your Daily Chests and saving everything else for higher value events such as State of Power and King of Icefield where you can earn Hero Shards. If that is the case then you are better aiming to meet the daily point goals via raiding and escorting trucks in the Tundra Trade Route Event, building Troops, Gathering, and so on. Nevertheless, if you do decide to commit to it, then we have highlighted in green our recommended item usage for each day of the event in the image below:

Rewards

Despite not being the best event to go all out in, the rewards are still pretty decent for just doing the bare minimum, even if you lose. In particular, rewards can be earned in the following categories: Daily Chests, Daily Rewards, Star Rewards, and Alliance Ranking.

Daily Chests

Each day of the event you are able to earn 5 Daily Chests by meeting certain points milestones. This should be your minimum goal to achieve each day. Please note that the points required for each chest increases with the age of your State. The rewards are as follows:

Chest	Reward
1	100 Enhancement XP Component x2 100K Meat x4 100K Wood x4
2	Lucky Hero Gear Chest x1 10K Coal x8 10K Iron x2
3	Truck Voucher x1 5m Construction Speedup x25 5m Research Speedup x25 5m Training Speedup x25
4	Gems x3,500 Truck Voucher x1 100K Meat x20 100K Wood x20
5	Charm Design x15 Truck Voucher x1 100K Coal x4 100K Iron x1

Daily Rewards

These are earned based on whether your alliance wins or loses the Match each day.

Result	Reward
Win	Gold Key x2 Life Essence x2,000 1h Research Speedup x2 100K Meat x2 100K Wood x2 10K Coal x4 10K Iron x2
Lose	Gold Key x1 Life Essence x1,000 1h Research Speedup x1 100K Meat x1 100K Wood x1 10K Coal x2 10K Iron x1

Star Rewards

These are paid out at the end of the Event and are based on your Alliance’s new Star Rating.

Star Rating	Win	Lose
1-2	Tundra Truck x1 Gems x1,000 Fire Crystals x10 1h General Speedup x5 100K General Resource Chest x50	Gems x500 Fire Crystals x5 1h General Speedup x2 100K General Resource Chest x25

Alliance Ranking

At the end of the Alliance Showdown, there will also be rewards distributed based on your final points total ranking versus the other players in your Alliance. These rewards vary depending on whether you win or lose, what your Alliances Star Rating is, and are only paid out to the top 50 players within the Alliance. Rewards here are very generous and include the following:

• Giant Horn Daybreak Island Decoration
• Gems
• Fire Crystals
• Mythic General Hero Shards
• Speedups

Tips

• Decide early on what your goal is with the event and communicate it to your Alliance. Most will decide to do the bare minimum and rather save their resources for the State of Power and King of Icefield events where ranking rewards are better.
• If you are going for victory, keep an eye on the points total for both Alliances during each Match. There is no point in going all out if your opponent is doing the bare minimum. Do just enough to get you over the line.
• Remember that you do not need to win every Match to win the Whiteout Survival Alliance Showdown. In addition, not every Match is equal with the 1st Match granting just 1 Victory Point to the winner and the final Match granting 4 Victory Points. In total, there are 13 Victory Points up for grabs meaning you will need 7 to win. Decide which Matches you want to target to get over this number but remember that if you win the final Match you will still need to win 2 others whilst if you don’t win it then you’ll need to win 4 of the others.
• Always get the Daily Chests regardless of whether or not you are going for outright victory. Not only do these have some good rewards that can be earned easily, but they also have Truck Vouchers which are a great help during the Tundra Trade Route Event which runs concurrently with Alliance Showdown.
