Daily Login

Progress your "Winter Wildcards Daily Login" to 5/12 completions and stop there. This will leave enough room to continue earning rewards once the new season begins.

Crafting Upgrade

Complete 49/50 tasks in the "Crafting Upgrade" objective. Avoid completing the final step, as the remaining XP can be claimed in the next season.

Daily Play Games

Stay on 3/4 completions for the "Daily Play" objective. Leave the last game unplayed to ensure you have available XP for carryover.

50k Pack

Open the 50k pack but do not assign the contents. Keeping them unassigned ensures you retain control over potential benefits without disrupting current progress.

Timing

Leave all these objectives incomplete until Thursday morning, just before the new season starts. Claim them after the new phase goes live to secure the additional 5,000 XP.

By following these steps, you’ll only miss out on minor rewards from small packs while positioning yourself to reduce the grind for the season ladder by saving 5,000 XP. Starting the season at Level 5 gives you a significant head start, especially if you aim to complete the full ladder.

This method works best if you track your progress regularly and ensure that no objectives accidentally exceed their thresholds. Plan carefully to maximize the rewards in the upcoming season.
