It’s clear that slugfest has barely been an afterthought dating back to the beginning of 2019. The player is always a random bxp guy that doesn’t help anyone’s team, and you score next to no club points if you play the event during royale (you can make the multiplier whatever you want, one bonus game can outscore a days worth of slugfest with ease).
So, how about we move slugfest to prime days? The tiny amount of bonus points earned wouldn’t drastically change the finishes for many clubs, but it would give people something else to do throughout the day.
It wouldn’t be for an amazing player, it doesn’t earn lxp or even bxp, but the people who simply enjoy slugfest would be able to enjoy it more so than they can during royale (and earn a little bxp/cash/evo along the way).
I personally would love to see slugfest during prime days, or even overnight in between events. As it stands, there’s very little reason to even remember slugfest exists. It deserves better than that, at least a little.

I don't see GLU bumping the resources for slugfest anymore though as before it was necessary since you had a separate slugger roster to maintain so the whole landscape has changed. Honestly I think they may eventually even get rid of it once/if they introduce other game modes. To me it seems like a placeholder for other modes to come at this point.
Having said that I like your idea of having it during prime days so that those that still enjoy it can get more involved. Before most people wouldn't bother with it if they hadn't played since day 1 since after 1 or two months they really wouldn't stand a chance of cycling if they didn't have a strong roster which they had to earn by cycling each week. Now that they can use their regular roster they can always jump back into it.
I've taken your feedback and included it in my report though. Thank you!
Put it in during a prime game event, and either make the player a part of a set or change the resources earned to pxp/lxp and I would think slugfest would garner more attention.
