- Recommended Pre-Event Hoard: 150 – 300 Tokens before Recruitment Day (Stop random tavern pulls right after assembling your starter 5-hero team on Day 1) ➔ 30 – 50 Hours of speedups per category (Use only free instant speedups outside active scoring windows) ➔ 50 – 100 Legendary Shards in reserve (Lock 100% of Universal Shards; never spread star upgrades across secondary SSR heroes).
| Target Hoarding Item | Target Quota | Dump Timing |
|---|---|---|
 Hero Recruit Token | 150 – 300 Tokens before Recruitment Day | Dump during the Recruitment stage or hold for the upcoming Hero Gacha event |
| Construction / Research / Training Speedups | 30 – 50 Hours of speedups per category | Align speedup dumps strictly with Construction, Tech, or Troop Training days |
| Universal Hero Shard | 50 – 100 Legendary Shards in reserve | Spend only to hit personal chest thresholds on Hero Day, saving the rest for Desert Prince (Day 21) and Storm Maiden (Day 27) |
6. Execution Tips
Tip 1 — Daily Theme Lock (Day 1 Construction ➔ Day 6 Final Sprint)
Verify the active theme after the 02:00 UTC daily reset
Each of Top Lord's 6 days scores strictly on that day's theme (Day 1 Construction ➔ Day 2 Research ➔ Day 3 Recruitment ➔ Day 4 Troops ➔ Day 5 Gear ➔ Day 6 All-Out Speedups). Never spend Recruit Tokens on Days 1–2 or upgrade Gear before Day 5!
⚠️ Spending resources outside the matching theme day forfeits 100% of daily chest points.
Tip 2 — Tier 3 Personal Milestone Chest Stop-Loss Ceiling
Immediately upon reaching the daily Tier 3 Personal Chest threshold
F2P and Low-Spenders should spend Speedups and Recruit Tokens strictly up to the daily Tier 3 Personal Chest for Diamond and Gold Shard rebates, then freeze inventory for Day 21 Desert Prince Wheel and Day 28 GAR.
⚠️ Chasing Top 1–10 overall rankings against Whales in Week 1 drains Diamonds right before Mythic banners arrive.
Tip 3 — Staircase Troop Promotion (T-1 ➔ T) on Day 4 Troop Day
Train Tier T-1 troops on Days 1–3, then tap Promote on Day 4
During Days 1–3, train troops one tier below your Barracks cap (T-1). When Day 4 (Troop Training) opens, use Promote (T-1 ➔ T) with Training Speedups to earn 1.4x more points per speedup minute than training from scratch.
⚠️ Never spend Universal Speedups training low-tier troops on Days 1–3.
