Pro Tips: How to Stand Out
- Focus on Clarity & Pacing: Fast-cut highlights, clear UI elements, and a punchy, readable intro (text overlay or voice) often drive better engagement on Shorts and TikTok.
- Leverage Unique Builds or Echo Combos: If you lack high-level Resonators or five-stars, showcase inventive three-/four-star synergies, or unusual Echo combinations. Meta isn't required to win.
- Capture Dynamic Action: Think mid-air combos, resonance skills, and Split Second dodges. Creativity and technical skill stand out.
- Include In-Game Audio: Natural sounds (Resonator ultimates, combo SFX) add authenticity and help judges verify submissions aren't AI-assisted.
- Optimize Posting Time: Sharing during event mid-point (ca. 2025-10-20 to 2025-10-29) could maximize visibility, before the typical last-minute surge.
- Credit All Players: If co-op, list player handles to avoid eligibility confusion.
What F2P & New Players Should Know
The event's structure means anyone can compete for top rewards, regardless of relic/weapon gacha luck. Smart, creative editing adds more value than a 5-star count. Use it as a chance to boost your account (via Astrite, renewable for pulls) or test out your streamer workflow.
Reminder: Multi-platform re-uploads do not multiply odds—unique works matter more than quantity.
What NOT to Submit
- Content made with third-party AI tools (voice, animation, editing) is explicitly banned.
- Old re-used content, even if popular, is ineligible.
- Footage modified to remove core game UI or obscure original sources risks exclusion.
Visuals & Accessibility
