Tournament Guide

Tournament Guide

This is a guide all about the new Tournaments 
introduced in update 3.0

What are Tournaments?

Tournaments are a new type of competition in the game. Players can try to set the best scores in various different categories. You can compete with each classic ship separately. But there are some restrictions, depending on the tournament world there are ships and items banned. If you are in tournament mode you will see an x marking what is banned. 
Tournaments last some amount of time. The first one right now will end after 14 days. To see how long it still is you can go to the universe leaderboard or see it on any Tournament World.
After those 14 days you will not be able to set a score anymore. Also remember to lock-in your TP before the end!

How to compete?

To compete in a Tournament you need to find a "Tournament World", the worlds are located in 3 "Tournament areas" (circles) around the world map. If you click the X on the top left you can automatically navigate to the circles A, B, and C (If you have already reached the tier they are located on).  

If you have not yet unlocked the worlds in the circle just play some of the tiers so that all worlds are unlocked. 
Then you need to have the tournament mode on (button in the top-right), make a build that doesn't use banned ships or banned items (they are marked with a X) and just finish the world.

Scoring

When you click on a yellow-square World with a number on top of it you will see the KPI on the bottom. KPI are the stats that will matter for your scoring. e.g. DPS, Money, Proj. 
"(min)" under a KPI means this KPI needs to be as low as possible. Otherwise, you want the highest score for it.

Clicking the logo on the top left will open the world Leaderboard. It will show a list of all the ships used on that world and which players has the current best score with that ship. 
If you click the bottom bar the leaderboard will switch to the ship you have currently selected.
You can also choose a ship in the leaderboard and click to see its leaderboard
On the ship leaderboard you will see all players that used the ship and their score(s) sorted by the player with the best score in the most KPI.

The scores on the leaderboard get updated every few minutes. only then a new score you set will show on the leaderboard.

Tournament points

Tournament points (TP) are the reward you get in Tournaments. You get Tournament points for each ship you set a score with. The amount you get depends on your position and the number of players that used the ship too. 
You will earn the TP you collected in the tournament season so far at the end of each week, or you can earn the directly by lock-in (there is a button on the top right). You will lock in for the whole world and all ships and can not play this tournament anymore after you locked in. At the end of a season the TP from the leaderboard will be reset to 0 but you of course keep the ones in your bank.

You can spend TP in the MGB Rewards tab. Currently only 10000 TP for MathVision

On the Universe Leaderboard you will be ranked by TP

Miner Gun Builder Meta Paths This is a list of the best paths for all classic ships. Including paths that are cheap and the best paths. If some things aren't clear, why the path is like that just ask, or some replacements for things that are too expensive just write a comment here, on Reddit or write to me on discord. Also if you find paths that seem/are better just send them to me and I maybe put them in here.

Waves/Custom ship Walkthrough

Miner Gun Builder Wave Guide This is a complete guide from starting waves to having all chunks you need. About which chunks to buy, which items to use, and when you should give up in a wave run to get the most rc/min. Before you read any further please keep in mind, that this will be a full guide, so it could take the fun from some people. But also keep in mind that buying the wrong tiles, especially at the start of waves can slow you down extremely and some chunks seem good but aren't. Read  Wave explanation  before this if you don't know how waves and custom ships work. Start waves Before you start doing waves, you should be tier 1000 to use the wave skill tree, have all the needed legendaries, and enough base damage. Wave skilltree: Legendarys: When you have that you can now start playing waves Full waveguide: This is the order to buy the chunk Quick Note: (The number of speed items I use is dependent on the number of wavespeed chunks so even if you didn't follow the gui...

Tiers Guide What are tiers? The world map are unlocked at Mission 11. The world map is a net of worlds, the tier is the distance from the center (0/0) if you finish a map/tier/world(whatever you want to call it) you can play the connected ones to progress further and further. With doing tiers you also unlock new things like the waves mode at tier 400, legendaries at 500, 600 and 700 and probably most important a skill point every 50 tiers. The factions can also be unlocked with outposts located on the world map Best way to progress in early tiers: To help you at the start you can skip the tiers depending on the missions you did, up to tier 300 at mission 99. Note that this can only be done till tier 300  Spoilers!! Here will be some ship builds To get to tier 300 you should do all 100 missions and then use the skip on the bottom left of the world map. add a "trident" item if the build doesent have it Look into the skilltree Guide so your skilltree matches th...
