How to unlock the Champion of PvP achievement in Gems of War - Definitive Guide

Each week (from Monday to Sunday) the Player vs Player (ranked) stat resets so you start in #15. For each 100 points you will advance a ranking, to 14, 13 and so on until reaching rank 1. You will need 1900 points of experience in PvP to reach that.
When you play on PvP you have three rivals to play, one easy (left), one more or less at your level (middle) and other higher than you (right). Could be a little above you or pretty high (it does not matter the player level or rank, just the sum of the 4 troops you choose to play.
The higher rank you play, the less time you will have to spend advancing in rank but, surely it will be time consuming, and the defeats will decrease your rank number a little bit.
It takes time, if you start at the beginning of the week you will reach #1 before the end surely (playing a bit day by day)

BTW: Fixed with March 1st 2017 update since before was not unlocking
BTW2: It looks that the 2nd update from March 1st 2017 got it wrong, because you only have to reach level 2 (1800 xp points) to unlock the achievement. Confirmed by several other gamers and myself.
BTW3: With the redesigned PvP system for 2024, this cheevo condition has changed. Now instead of reaching rank 1 from the tiers you need to reach lvl 20 which is 6500 pvp xp points

Confirmed by devs that if you already had Tier 1 this week then you will have to wait till next week.

Not sure why that should only apply to the pvp achievement, but it is what it is!

because for not ranked matches you don't advance. It happened to me that I already did one of the other achievements (the class set for the hero), and does not unlock also. Could be the same reason. I remember yesterday having a Title Update queued for this game, could be that fix too.

Class achievements will unlock. Just go to the Hero tab and stare at the class for a few seconds. For 250 battles, just win one battle.

It's weird to punish us for completing Tier 1 too quickly.

I usually get to Tier 1 within one or two days of the weekly reset. I'm pretty pissed that I can't complete the game this week because I was Tier 1 before they updated. That's bullshit.

The left-most opponent I've never seen give more than 10 points per win. Since you start at 500, and need to get to 1,800, that's a difference of 1,300. Assuming you don't lose at all, that's 130 matches in a single week.

As of May 3rd you can still get the achievement at tier 2 instead of 1. It seems rivals/revenge give more points to climb, so I just tried to do those as much as I could.

It depends on the traits actually. The stronger cards have traits that stun, entangle, freeze, burn and web you. In comparison, traits like Huge, Greedy, (Elemental) Link, etc. won't be useful against them.

playing

This is one of my attacking teams. It can stun, entangle, freeze, burn and web the opponents. The third card isn't even Legendary yet. This isn't my strongest attacking team because it has no traits to defend against skull spam backlash. It was why I added in the last card, which web and entangle on cast to reduce the likelihood that I get killed when a skull spam goes wrong. Still, this team isn't good enough to consistently win the right battle, so it's just an example of what a fully traited (meaningful traits) team can do.

Just confirming this still pops at Tier 2 1800+ Ranked points, as of March 11, 2017.

I just refreshed the enemy list until a got a beatable team to pick. Luckily, such teams repeat as enemies every so often. I spent over 250 Gems, but it was worth it to finally be done with this game... AGAIN. See you all after the next Update that adds achievements.

It is sad. I see other glitches on the game like sometimes at early week of the guild contributing for a complete task, and not getting the email with the reward. It happens to me around 4 of 5 times

It helps if you invest time and effort into an active guild. I've been in my existing guild for over a year, and have reaped the rewards of getting enough cards to ascend many (and I mean, many) of my cards to Mythical status. This allowed me to form three to four attacking teams for different situations. I've also gathered enough traitstones to fully trait all the troops in my attacking teams. Fully traiting your troops is the key to victory to be honest.

Got home today after the reset, played about 1.5 hours, and promptly got this unlocked when I reached Tier 2. Going back to Fallout Shelter now.

This seems impossible now. This update seems to have broken the game. Nearly impossible to win PvP. My win rate is only 42%. It used to be about 90%. I don't know how these people have all these traits. In 200+ hours of playing, I only have one trait on one of my cards in my main team. SO FRUSTRATING that the developers changed this game so much in the last year (that I wasn't playing it) that I have no idea what to do now to be successful.

Well, I played a ton last year reaching level 110 and moved to something else. Now I was back at this game and it changed a ton, the traits for each card as you mention.
If you keep failing so level up your cards, or fight less powerful rivals.
And most importantly, begin on monday / tuesday, if not you will probably get bored in the middle of the week as you mention

As I mentioned, join an active guild, and be active. The rewards will come. I spent close to 1,000 hours on this game. Even then, I only managed to mythic my Bone Dragon during the event this week.

Identify a team that you really want to fully trait, and repeatedly do Explore battles to farm the stones. The Gems forum has resources on which kingdom to farm and grind for which stone.

PS: It's impossible to defend this week. Everyone's using Bone Dragon team, which simply obliterates every defence if set up properly. Lol

I find that occasionally the left, center, right doesn't always balance. I've fought "equal" valued opponents and got stomped because their team consists of a mythical and three legendaries and mine is two ultra rares, an epic and a legendary at equal levels. But the difference is all his high level troops have no traits and mine are all traited out. So to me, higher ascending seems to be better than traits. In my view anyways.

It could be a matter of luck too. I had some struggling when watching the I.A. making 4 and 5 gems combo and watching the game for 10-12 moves doing nothing.
There are some nasty cards too. The bone dragon can crush your shield and use that number to put skulls on screen, others than can devour your card and there is one that I don't remember that marks for death all your cards and it happened to me to going from 4 cards to a single in one attack just like that.

Since this wasn't mentioned previously, you can speed this up greatly by going to settings ->graphics ->animation speed ->X4. Battles take seconds once you do this.

Much easier now that the PvP is eight zones. Just grind the "20 players here" color-themed zone.

Yes SC Inferno, the PvP was revamped around three months back (february 2024) and it has been changed since then, with some minor adjustments. Basically the devs are focusing on that instead of the old Guild Wars system, which apparently they have no idea how to do it now.

@rocking23nf
you can actually check your team level with the points, for example, if you are at 3000 points, let see the leftmost will be around 2000, the middle one more or less like your team and the right should be i.e. 3000.

Left: easy win, but takes a ton of times to upper the level
middle: more or less like you. you have to have really bad luck to not beat it since the console A.I. is pretty poor on the console version, worse than in Android for example
Right: it will be tough usually, doable but, tough.

And do not worry on this today, since it is the last day of the week and tomorrow al ranks will be reset. Make your way since tomorrow monday and you'll have plenty of time to do until the next one.

If anyone just misses out at the end of the week, it doesn't actually reset your rank until you go to the PVP section, so if your clan is participating in a Guild War, you can get the last little bit from that.
Obviously it's pretty limiting since you can only do 5 battles a day, and you have no choice in opponents, but it might help people.
I've been working on this achievement bit by bit over the weeks since the Guild War update came out, and just got it today.

You begin each week (resets are on Monday) with 500 PVP points, and will reach Tier 1 at 1900 points. Read this FAQ for some more info on PVP.

There are three opponents offered each time you choose to attack. One will be ranked less than you, one about the same, and one higher. You will get more points for beating a higher opponent obviously, but it will be difficult. However, you almost always lose the same amount no matter who you fight, so give it a shot and if it's never going well, bump yourself down to the middle option and see how that goes. I personally always used the middle fight, and I only had a 30% win rate. However, I was only losing maybe 3-7 points per loss, and wins were between 30-40 points, so I slowly rose up the ranks. If you make sure you begin on Monday and gauge which opponents you can beat, it only takes time.

The achievement only appears in ranked matches .
You need to reach 1900 points in one week (to get the first rank).
The number of points you can get for winning or losing for losing is written under the opponent.
For battles with a weak opponent they give approximately 10 to 15 points.
With an average - 30 points and above.
High: 50 points and above.
It all depends on the leveling and assembly of your squad.

(03/14/2017) For now, the achievement appears when you get the second rank - 1800 points. In the future they may release a patch that will fix this glitch.

We just fight more often in PvP, and in 3 days (in one week) you can quite get the first rank and in addition!
PvP is essentially not only the most interesting event in the game, but also the main source of gold.
PS If your level is already good and you fight only with the very right opponents (they pay the most for them), then rank 1 can be achieved in one PvP game session.
