159 days since Milestones went live (Dec 11 2020), 129,144 matches made so far or 812 matches/day
Next Milestone @ 500k matches. At my current pace I’ll get there in ~456 days or about August 18th 2022, can’t wait! Would make it day 3,108 for me, 8.5 years of MPQ.
For context, 5* player, daily 5 clears in CL10, DPD daily I ignore the 1* & 2* nodes, PVPs to 1kish (no hopping these days), 2k in SIM each season, do all the other story events as posted. So probably more than the average but maybe not more than the average forum poster.
How does that compare to you? When are others going to reach that 500k?? Will I even make it!
Similar play style but do all nodes in DDQ and dabble in Lightning Rounds. 133192 matches, doesn’t really bother me that the next milestone is so far away as it’s nice to have a long term goal (same for the boosts - at 20000 with next target 50000).
I’m sure others, especially competitive PvP players in the higher scoring shards and those that seem to play every LR obsessively, are way ahead of that.
Making matches don’t look that bad when you compare it with other updates. For example:
promote 4* into Champion 150 times, when there are only 111 4*. I will hit this in 2023 or 2024 and most other players will probably hit this in 2026 or 2027 or beyond.
promote 3* into Champion 160 times. I’m at 66 now. Likewise, I’ll hit this in 2023 or 2024.
promote 4* into Champion 250 times. I’ll probably see this happening after the next 2 US Presidential Election, if MPQ Is around. By then, MPQ would be around 15 years old.
Yeah i’m just not working on Team Ups at all, i’m at 453/600. Unless the rewards jump up to 3 or 4* supports, I’m fine grinding the Use 50,000 Boosts up to a CAble cover instead. I’m at 27,617/50,000 on that one. I’ll never finish up the Shields in Vs one, I’m still at 38/50 there. The juice isn’t worth the hp squeeze for me to mess with it. I’m at 39/50 2* champs, 56/80 3* champions, 110/150 4s, and 32/35 5s currently. Since i’m not farming dupes, I’m really just champing them as they get released for higher tier characters, and as they organically flip at the lower tiers. I only keep 3x 2* champions at a time, the rest just sit collecting saved covers until one of my champs maxes out.
The matches stats was interesting as the big number, now done some more math.
Health Packs @ 2,611 or 16/day - I try and remember to keep burning these daily
TU @ 241 or 1.5/day - hardly use these and when using Okoye so much not high priority to use TU
Boosts @ 2,395 or 15/day - getting better at adding match boosts to speed up
Shields @ 77 or 0.5/day - 1 per PVP only
4* powers @ 1,347 or 8.4/day - decent pace on these, CL10 and PVP 1k adds a few
5* powers @ 155 or 1/day - though not that consistent really as clumped on days when new characters enter and LT used
2* Champs @ 56 or 0.4/day - surprisingly slow, but in CL10 2s aren’t offered as rewards, so all token based
3 Champs @ 104, or 0.7/day - faster than 2s!
4 Champs @ 112 - this is since the start, only just getting going on dupe farm, 7 @ 370 currently, will speed up as more get maxed
All these have next milestone hits in the near future, though that’s because I’m not as far along yet. No real complaints here, just fun crunching the numbers. Milestones are a great feature, extra rewards for doing what we are already doing.
110K for me doing 7 clears of PvE (CL8) and PvP to 900 plus DDQ.
Guessing the extra 10-20K matches some others here have for doing the same thing are either due to CL10 taking longer or else their higher push in PvP.
I wonder if any heavy lightning round players are in the 160K+ range.
I was wondering if it was due to which specific teams we are all using. I would guess Hulkoye and Thor, since they hinge so heavily on non-matched tile breaks, are going to be accruing less “matches” even while the players are performing at a higher level
That can be said for many milestones. It gives people something to look forward to completing in the future even if they don’t have the roster for it now.
The initial batch of milestones are pretty achievable, save for a few like TU, Shield etc.
If they update the 4* and 5* milestones again, not even the most competitive early players can achieve them within a year. I think this is probably the last batch of updates to the current milestone quests, unless they add new quests.
