Hello Skylords, Skyladies and other Skybeings; and welcome to CCC #4 – the fourth Crappy Community Contest!
THE CONTEST HAS ENDED.

What are “Crappy Community Contests”?
This and future CCC's are meant to be small-scale contests with weird challenges, hopefully luring you away from well-trodden paths. They are small-scale on the organizers side too: there will be no stream, video or event announcing the winners. What's special about these contests is a participation price for the whole community.
What, when, where, how?
As mentioned above, the idea of the CCC's is to present you with new and fresh challenges. This one will not be about speed, but about map and card knowledge, strategy/creativity and maybe also tenacity to work through an expert map under harsh conditions:
Mo Card Count
While the Masters of the Forge are improving the power of all Skylords, the fire of the Forge burns low.
You are asked to use as little of its power as possible.
For this challenge, win the 1-player-map “Mo” on Expert difficulty
with as few cards of as low rarity as possible.
For each card you use, you will get points depending on the rarity:
Common: 1 Point
Uncommon: 2 Points
Rare: 3 Points
Ultra Rare: 4 points
Note: It does not matter how often you play out a card, only the cards in the deck are used to determine your points.
The Skylord with the lowest number of points will win this challenge. In the case of a tie, the run that has been submitted earlier gets the higher placement in the ranks. Replays with more than 15 cards are not eligible for this challenge (cards used, not points) – so you can't submit just your usual Mo Expert run.
Submit your replay together with the following information:
In game Name: <your name>
Deck: <screenshot or names of the cards used>
Points total: <number of points scored>
You can find your replays here: Documents => Battleforge => replays
The contest has already started – submit your entry through Discord (DM to Kapo#0116) or the Skylords Forum (DM to @Kapo) until 11. 05. 2022 23:59:59 (= 8 days time total).
You can submit multiple times, but only the one with the lowest points will count. Please note that the Top 5 Replays will be posted here in the forums. To reduce my workload, you may rename your file to CCC4_Points_<IGN>.pmv (e.g. CCC4_12_Kapo.pmv).

What is the prize pool?
Since this is not just a Crappy Contest, but a Crappy Community Contest, you may help with your participation to earn a price for the whole Community. If we reach more than 15 participants (unique players, not entries), we will unlock a Mini-Booster code for the entire Skylords Community. If more than 25 participants enter, the code will be upgraded to a Booster instead of a Mini-Booster. So tell your fellow Skylords to try this challenge – it may take some time, but it's an occasion to try something completely new, and it raises our chances to hand out a code for everybody.
Of course, the Skylords with the lowest points will get prices too, sponsored by the SR Team, the Community and me:
1st place 5 Bandit Boosters + Mo + Promo Swamp Drake
2nd place 4 Bandit Boosters + Mo + Promo Rogan Kayle
3rd place 3 Bandit Boosters + Mo + Promo Lyrish Knight
4th place 2 Bandit Boosters + Mo
5th place 1 Bandit Boosters + Mo
6th place Wheel of Gifts
7th place Worldbreaker Gun
8th place Mine
9th place Overlord
10th place Jorne
Last place Juice Tank (x4)
Special Bounty Be the first to win the Map with only one card to earn 8 Banzai Lords (G)!
For participation, there is a random chance to win one of the following cards:
Random Draws 5x1 Bandit Booster, Enlightenment, Infect, Avatar of Frost, Disenchant (G), Amii Monument
Sponsors
If one or more mighty Skylord(s) decides to sponsor this event, please contact me. I would be more than happy to beef up or expand the prize pool, add additional random draws, or any other upgrades to the prize pool.
The following prices have been sponsored so far:
Skylords Team Bandit Boosters (x20), Community Booster Code
Kapo Promo Swamp Drake, Promo Rogan Kayle, Promo Lyrish Knight
Simplifying * Enlightenment, Infect, Avatar of Frost, Disenchant (G), Amii Monument, Wheel of Gifts, Worldbreaker Gun, Mine, Overlord, Jorne
Odessa Mo (x5)
Donaar Juice Tank (x4)
Kemek1 Enlightenment
Bozzah Banzai Lord (G) x8 (as a Bounty, see above)
* Simplifying, a player who stopped playing, donated his complete account. This is the second contest his collection is sponsoring - he expressed how nice the community is, and he wanted to give something back through the CCC.
In conclusion
I know this contest is somewhat harder and might be a little more time-consuming than the previous CCCs – be assured there are plans for CCC #5 to be easier again. My hope is that you still like this new kind of challenge as something worthwhile to explore. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Good luck and best regards,
Kapo
