1. The Golden Rule: Promotion > Training

Upgrading existing troops (e.g., T9 to T11) yields significantly higher points per speedup hour than training new ones. Points are awarded based on the tier difference, but the time cost is slashed by nearly 75%.

2. Stockpiling Routine

Outside of KvK, continuously produce T8 or T9 units. Do not speed them up. When Day 4 arrives, use all your speedups solely to promote these reserves to T11. This strategy is essential for top-tier rankings.

3. Strategic Prep Batch (J-3)

Never start Day 4 with idle buildings. Launch 3 massive batches (Inf/Cav/Arc) approximately 3-4 days before reset. Utilize the +200% Capacity Buff and the Noble Advisor title to maximize batch size. These are millions of "free" points delivered at 00:01 UTC.

4. Buff Stacking

Before spending a single minute of speedups on Day 4: confirm Mobilize (+30%) is active, claim the Noble Advisor (+50%) title, and verify the Kingdom Prep Buff (+25%). Every percentage point saves you thousands of gems worth of speedups.

1. How the Calculator Works

This tool perfectly simulates the in-game training mechanics. By inputting your base stats and desired buffs, it calculates exactly how long batches will take and how many troops you can process. It splits your strategy into two phases: the Strategic Prep (troops launched days before) and the Day 4 Push (where you use your saved speedups). It's designed to give you a precise roadmap and points projection so you know exactly where you stand before spending any resources.

2. Finding Accurate Stats

Your results are only as good as your inputs. Find them in 2 easy steps:

• Click on your Power (Top Left corner of your screen).
• This opens the Bonus Overview. Scroll down to the bottom to find the Training Capacity and Training Speed lines (they are placed right next to each other). Enter these raw values.

3. Strategic Prep Calculation

This calculator determines the exact UTC time for you to click "Train" days before the event. If timed correctly, the progress bar will reach 100% at exactly 00:01 UTC on Day 4, bypassing speedup costs entirely for that first batch.

4. Promotion Goal Logic

Add a row for every troop tier you currently own. The tool will calculate the exact amount of speedups required to upgrade your entire army to your Target Tier (usually T10 or T11).

1. Unified Spending Tracker

This hub aggregates all planned expenditures for the Prep Week. Use it to verify if your current bag stock is sufficient to reach your personal or alliance point targets.

2. Multi-Level Upgrades

For Gears and Charms, select your "From" rarity/level and your "To" target. The calculator automatically sums the resources and points for every intermediate step between the two.

3. Pet Advancement (Gen 1-6)

Crucial distinction: Leveling pets with XP Food provides 0 KvK points. Points are only awarded for Advancement Steps (every 10 levels). This tool calculates the Manuals, Potions, and Medals needed for those specific score-giving steps.

4. Inventory Pre-Flight Check

The "Inventory Check" block at the bottom is your final verification. Compare these totals with your in-game bag. If you lack the required Satin or Charme Guides, reconsider starting the upgrade to avoid missing out on full bonus completion.
