Break the Meta with Raider.IO
All you need to do is register for the event on Raider.IO and complete at least two +8 or higher keystones with eligible groups to earn the banner!

In order for a keystone to be eligible, it must be completed in time and made up of ONLY the following:
DPS: Affliction Warlock, Arms Warrior, Assassination Rogue, Augmentation Evoker, Devastation Evoker, Enhancement Shaman, Feral Druid, Fire Mage, Frost Mage, Outlaw Rogue, Shadow Priest, Survival Hunter, Unholy Death Knight, and Windwalker Monk.
Healers: Discipline Priest, Holy Paladin, Holy Priest, Mistweaver Monk, and Preservation Evoker.
Tanks: Blood Death Knight, Brewmaster Monk, Guardian Druid, and Vengeance Demon Hunter.
The Competition Period lasts for one full reset over the last week of November in each region:

Raider.IOBreak the Meta is a staple event that takes place once per Mythic+ Season. It’s all about showcasing that even high-level keystones can be completed without a full meta comp, or even without a single meta character. Past BTM events have seen full off-meta compositions achieve great heights… including dungeons up to +20 in Season 2 of The War Within, just two levels shy of the highest dungeons on record for the entire season.
So gear up and grab the Fellowship… the beacons are lit, and it’s time to Break the Meta! 🏔️🔥🧙♂️
Prizes
Aside from competition and bragging rights, Break the Meta is also an opportunity for players to earn a variety of prizes, including, pets, toys, and game time!

Unbound Banner of the Algari
We are once again partnering with Blizzard for BTM to provide players another opportunity to earn the Unbound Banner of the Algari! This in-game toy was made available to participants of the MDI Time Trials this Season. The opportunities to get this exclusive toy are few and far between, so we’re excited to provide one more chance to collect this awesome in-game item through Break the Meta!
Register for the event and complete at least TWO (2) BTM-Eligible or MVM-Eligible keystones at level +8 or higher during BTM Week, and the Unbound Banner of the Algari will be automatically added to your collection in-game approximately 30 days after winners are announced.
⚠️After Community feedback, Blizzard has agreed to allow us to decrease the dungeon level requirement this Season to keystone level +8⚠️
World of Warcraft Game Time
Break the Meta is, after all, a competition, and competitions have winners! We will be awarding 60 days of WoW Game Time to the players who achieve the highest Mythic+ Character Score for each BTM-Eligible specialization in each of the four eligible regions: Americas, Europe, Korea/Taiwan, and China. With 23 eligible specs, that’s a grand total of 92 winners!
BTM Prize Bundle
We always try to have one prize that does not have any requirements in terms of keystone levels or Raider.IO Score, to give all players an opportunity to win something. We’re excited to once again be able to offer the BTM Prize Bundle, a collection of the following wondrous in-game prizes:
60 days World of Warcraft Game Time
Midnight Epic Edition
Luminous Starseeker Blizzard Store Mount
Twilight Blizzard Store Pet
This season's BTM Prize Bundle.
In order to win the BTM Prize Bundle, you must complete BTM-Eligible dungeons in-time during BTM Week while using the Raider.IO Desktop App with Live Tracking enabled. Every completed keystone, regardless of level, earns you 1 entry into the raffle, and one lucky winner will be chosen after the event ends! There is only one BTM Prize Bundle shared between all eligible regions.
Entries into the raffle for the BTM Prize Bundle are on an individual basis -- that is to say that even if someone in your dungeon group is using Live Tracking, you will only get an entry if you are Live Tracking as well.
