Key points
The Homeland Gathering Showdown is a 2-week event in Axie Infinity: Homeland. Gather resources, earn Fortune Troves, and compete in the leaderboard to score AXS. The event will run from April 17th to May 3rd.
The Event Leaderboard will be LIVE during the Gathering Showdown — with an estimated 20,000 AXS up for grabs. Note that the final amount of distributed rewards may change due to the event’s mechanism.

Lunacia, the Homeland Gathering Showdown is LIVE! The Gathering Showdown is a special event starting next week that will put an estimated 20,000 AXS up for grabs. Gather resources to earn Fortune Troves and climb the Leaderboard. Here’s how the Homeland Gathering Showdown is going to go down:
Introducing the Gathering Showdown Leaderboard
Starting April 17th for the following two weeks, players’ plots can earn points for gathering different resources in Homeland while the Individual Timer is running. It may be the biggest resource rush Lunacia has ever seen. Here’s how it works: **
Everyday, players can activate the Individual Timer for up to two hours. While the timer is running, each gathered resource will grant points to the plot from which they were gathered. Gather 1 wood, earn 1 point on that plot. Gather 1 diamond, earn 608 points on that plot. The table above shows the point value of each resource.
At the end of the Gathering Showdown, the top 5,000 plots will yield Fortune Troves to their players. Each Fortune Trove corresponds to an amount of Ancient Coins — which are redeemable for AXS. Here’s what that will look like:
Start Individual Timer —> Gather resources —> Accumulate Points —> Earn Fortune Troves —> Receive Ancient Coins —> Redeem for mAXS
Ancient Coins received from the Fortune Troves do not count towards the daily cap. Stewards whose gathering puts a plot on the leaderboard will also receive rewards split according to their delegation contract and the points earned during the Gathering Showdown.
Note that timer will reset every day at 5PM (GMT+7), and unused time will not accumulate — use the time or lose it. If you play on multiple plots, you can activate separate timers for each plot or start their timers together.
Land Type Advantages: a Powerful Reward X Factor
The type of land on which players gather resources makes a big difference. For example, Genesis plots will give players 5,000 Ancient Coins for every Fortune Trove earned, while Mystic plots will give players 1,000 Ancient Coins per Fortune Trove. Rarer plots give out more rewards.
This will encourage landlords to play or delegate their rarer plots, while giving some Stewards the potential to take home lots of mAXS at the end of the event.

Event FAQ
Q: How are rewards from the Gathering Showdown split between Steward and Landowner?
A: Stewards and Landowners will split rewards earned during the Gathering Showdown according to their delegation contract and the points each party earns. Here’s an example:
Imagine a Steward and Landowner agree to a delegation contract with a 50/50 reward split. The Steward goes on to earn 80% of the plot’s Leaderboard Points during the Gathering Showdown.
First, the Steward will only be eligible for 80% of the final mAXS rewards because they contributed 80% of the points. Then, the 50/50 split will be applied to that amount. In the end, the Steward receive 40% of the plot’s total rewards.
eg. Total Plot Rewards = 100,000 mAXS
80% x 100,000 mAXS = 80,000 mAXS, 50% x 80,000 mAXS = 40,000 mAXS
Steward’s Rewards = 40,000 mAXS
Landowner’s Rewards = 60,000 mAXS
Q: What if I miss out on activating the individual timer, will the gathering actions still count towards the points?
A: Only gathering tasks completed during the individual timer activation will count on the leaderboard. Hence, always remember to activate it.
Q: What happens if the 5pm GMT+7 daily reset happens during my 2-hour gathering window?
A: If you start playing before the daily 5pm GMT+7 reset, you can continue earning points for 2 hours. Your session will not be interrupted. After the reset, you can start the timer right away for the next day’s session.
Q: Once activated, can I pause the individual timer?
A: No, you cannot pause the individual timer.
Q: Will I still earn Ancient Coins from normal Gathering tasks outside the event rewards when the individual timer starts?
A: Yes.
Q: How do I redeem mAXS from this event?
A: Event rewards will be distributed through Ancient Coins and players have to redeem via the Claim Token Page on App.Axie. More details here
