as someone who's gone to school for art and photography, it feels like y'all didn't even really look at these and just chose winners randomly? it's not that some of them aren't good, but more that you set rules and then completely ignored them.

So this was a lie...


This +1000.

Just as an example, the cyclone one, its so blatant that it doesnt deserve top 5, not even top 100, seems completely random and pretty suspicious.

The guidelines stated when submitting a screenshot is basically void. You got winners up there with their entire UI showing. Best to limit the amount of "tweaking" you can do to a screenshot to just the image upload site. This way everyone has an equal playing field. No third party image editing software should be allowed imo.


Also, having a theme for these competitions would be really cool, would probably be a lot of extra work, but having 2 separate winner categories for MTX and F2P competitions could also help in creating a more controlled and fair playing field. (For example: Theme: Light Vs. Darkness MTX and Light Vs. Darkness F2P)
Would be pretty interesting to see how creative people can get without the use of any MTX on their character as well.

Should've been raw screenshots without manipulation. Some of the first ones don't deserve to be up there.
4th place





Not even considered....
Drive, action, direction!!!












Force field!!!!!!!





Blocks attack!!!




36th place !!!!





A good competition, I won’t try so hard anymore.
I do not have expensive MTX to participate in your competitions.
Thank GGG!

These are great! What I really need to know however is the MTX combination for the "pastfuture" screenshot. I love that! If anyone can reply or PM, it would be much appreciated.

Celestial Hood, Seeker Body Armour, Seeker Gloves, Seeker Boots, Seeker Weapon Effect and Corsair Monkey Pet.

Hood and Pet Monkey, you can find in Microtransaction shop. But the Seeker armour was available 2 Core supporter packs ago.

Also the Hideout is Doomguard, from a supporter pack as well.
