An art of champion title from the Facebook Page
"You have taken the crown..."
The Trophy, accommodated with episode titles, is a map element that is available on Candy Crush Saga. They differed completely between the two editions; the Flash incarnation was only for bragging rigths, while the HTML5 incarnation is an event feature conferring additional gameplay benefits.
They were introduced since August 13, 2013, for Flash as the Champion Trophy. They were not realized on the mobile edition. The Champion Trophy was obtained by having the most stars in an episode compared to your friends. It conferred no benefits on subsequent gameplay.
They were reintroduced circa 2019 in HTML5 as the Master Trophy, where an ongoing event provided players with trophies placed at the end of an episode by mastering levels. Levels are mastered by obtaining Gold Crowns (completing a level in the first try) or Sugar Stars (obtaining twice the three-star target). Like its Flash incarnation, trophies comes with episode titles, each associated with an episode. These titles are exactly the Champion Titles from Flash; furthermore new titles hitherto unseen are revealed for the HTML5 episodes. Obtaining trophies in HTML5 provided benefits to the levels for the next episode (applicable on HTML5 only).
As of 2021 Sep 29 (v212.02), all Master Trophies have been removed from players and their benefits no longer apply. The community manager has stated that they will be put on hold to be reworked on in hopes of a successor. As of Candy Cup, all Master Titles have been completely removed from the game, though this does not preclude the Master Trophy event from returning.
Characteristics[]
Flash[]
Hovering over a trophy on the map will display the episode's champion title, your profile picture with 3 stars to either side of it, a brief description of the title and how many stars you have in that episode. If a friend holds the champion title, hovering over it will tell you how many more stars he/she has than you (there is a glitch which tells that you need 0 more stars).
HTML5[]
Instead of earning the most number of stars, your goal is to obtain a diamond trophy, obtainable when the player mastered all fifteen levels of an episode. This can be challenging unless the player as a constant supply of ads, event benefits, boosters, and booster passes. Obtaining both requirements for a level counts only once towards the progress of a trophy.
| Levels mastered | Trophy | Master Title? | Benefits (apply to all levels in the next episode) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 - 5 | N/A | No | N/A |
| 6 - 8 | Bronze | No | additional 10% score |
| 9 - 11 | Silver | No | additional 10% score with 5 fewer minutes to obtain a life |
| 12 - 14 | Gold | No | additional 10% score with 5 fewer minutes to obtain a life and one extra life |
| All | Diamond | Yes | additional 10% score with 5 fewer minutes to obtain a life, one extra life, and one extra move |
Benefits are earned every time you have a crown. They are applied in the next episode (i.e. if you obtained a trophy in episode 96, benefits will apply in episode 97).
Trivia[]
Champion title icon
HTML5 version[]
- You cannot obtain any trophy for a tutorial episode. Thus, Lemonade Lake is the first episode in which you can obtain a trophy.
- Minty Meadow (Episode 5) is thhe first episode in which you can obtain Sugar Stars on a level. Sugar Stars are not awarded for levels below Level 51 even if you scored twice the three-star target..
Flash version[]
- There could be a glitch that prevents the trophy from appearing.
- On a side note, if you have the same number of stars as a friend, it won't list you as the champion and it will say "You need 0 more stars to beat...".
