Championship Update: Battle for the Thunderdrake Citadel!

Dear Battleground Champions,

The latest Championship is over now and the next one already launched! However we don't want to miss this opportunity to tell you about the next Championship reward: Thunderdrake Citadel!

Thunderdrake Citadel

Just like the other Championship buildings, this building is a Championship reward, specific to the Diamond Leagues.

Again, you have to win at least three Diamond League Battlegrounds in a Championship to get enough Fragments to unlock level one and win FIVE Battlegrounds in a Championship to unlock level 2! However, keep in mind that the Thunderdrake Citadel Lv. 1 produces Fragments for the Upgrade Kit as well. This means you will be able to level up the Citadel to Lv. 2 with Fragments alone.
