Getting a Diamond Coin is not easy. It depends entirely on your ability to correctly predict the outcome of most of the Perfect World Shanghai Major across all three stages of competition. You can, however, get to Gold quite quickly by remaining active and locking in your picks.

To get a Shanghai Major Diamond Coin on your profile, you must complete all 9 Pick'Em challenges. Get one incorrect, and you'll be stuck on Gold. For every three you get correct, your Coin is upgraded.

  • 3/9 = Silver
  • 6/9 = Gold
  • 9/9 = Diamond

When your Coin gets upgraded, you also receive a Souvenir Package to use throughout the event for some unique weapon skins based on what happened during a specific match you choose. Now, let's scream "challenge accepted" together as we look at all the actual challenges you can try to complete.
