The LSS (Land, Sea, Sky) Event of 2024 is the third LSS Event. The event began on May 24th, 2024, at 4:36 PM PDT, and lasted for four weeks, ending on June 21st, 2024, at 3:02 PM PDT. During this event, instead of being donation-focused, it is instead featured two different "teams" that players can join and compete against one another for rewards. This event's theme is Light vs. Dark; it is unknown if future LSS Events will have different themes.
Players were able to choose which side to join and complete missions that contribute points to their team's point total. Team points are weighted based on how many members have joined each side. Picking a team is a one-time choice and players were not able to switch teams after they've made a decision; it is also unknown if players will be able to switch teams in future LSS Events. All previous LSS Event creatures are obtainable by both teams.
Team points are used to unlock creatures in the event shop. Teams were able to unlock rewards globally for the entire team, but players also had personal unlocks for their own personal point contributions. The team to hit their global point goal first would receive shop discounts and possibly other buffs.

Team Versus: Light and Dark Mission Tracker[]
In Part 1, a new Mission Tracker was introduced, with the gimmick that players must choose to either participate in the Light Team, or the Dark Team. By completing certain missions, players contribute a certain amount of points to their team, which will be referred to as "Team Points". Once enough "Team Points" are achieved by a team, all members of that team will have an item in the LSS Event shop unlocked. The leading team would receive the Competitive Lead buff, which grants an additional 10% discount in the event shop, while the other team would receive the Underdog's Rally buff, which grants a points multiplier (ranging from 1.2x to 2x) to all team members. However, if both teams accumulated nearly equal points, the trailing team does not receive a buff.

Minigames[]
The LSS Event introduced a new minigame which can be used to gather Points.
Race[]
The Race minigame was introduced during part two of the event. It features starting lines that are shaped as circles: the Land Race starting circle is located at Jungle (near Pride Rocks), the Ocean Race starting circle is located at Rocky Drop (between Volcano Island and Pride Rocks), and the Sky Race starting circle is located at Flower Cove. It is NOT necessary to actually be on the starter line circle to participate in a race once it began.
All the races start together with a 5-minute completion and collectively share a 3-minute cooldown (not counting a default race-in-progress time cooldown) before racing again on the same track. Each race requires a specific type of creature: land, aquatic, or flier/glider. When a race begins, all the rings become visible, and the correct creature type will see a highlighted yellow ring for the fitting track, which will disappear as they go through it. Players must pass through each highlighted ring in order to finish that particular race and receive a reward. Ring positions remain the same for each race and do not change. Multiple tracks can be completed on the same cycle, a max of 3 (1 for each track).
As a precaution against attackers harming racers, when a creature enters the starting line circles, they receive a stack of 7 "Passive Mode" status effect that disables growth and two-way damage for as long as it remains active (7 stack * 3 seconds per stack = 21 seconds approx.) after leaving the circle. This status is also received every time a racer passes through the correct highlighted ring. However, probably due to an oversight, the starter lines only give such status when there is a race in progress, leaving creatures during the 3-minute cooldown vulnerable to attacks.
Possible rewards are as follows:
- If a creature does not finish their track before the race-in-progress timer ends, a "You ran out of time" message will display and no Points will be given.
- As of part 2 (and still up to the final part), this is bugged so even if a player finishes their track correctly, the message will still display after such timer ends.
- For finishing a track in time before a creature runs out of time, 10 Points.
- If a creature won the race, they are awarded 20 Points instead.
- In theory, this is for a multiplayer race and coming in first place on your track. However, in practice, from Part 2 to Part 4, both included, it is actually ONLY if the racer is the first to finish globally, multiplayer or not (except on Part 4, where it is mandatory to be on a public server to get the winning award), and before anybody else finishes the other racetracks, that is, if someone on the same global race finished your circuit or any other before you reach the end of yours, you will not receive a winning award. For example, let's suppose three players start at the same time, two compete on the Land Race, but the other does on the Sky Race, and the latter completes their Sky circuit before any of the land racers can reach the Land's final ring, then the Sky racer will get the winner price, while the others will only get the minimum reward for finishing the track.
- Due to this, how the flying track is actually the shortest, and how there are quite fast flier creatures, most opt for the Sky Race, leaving other tracks abandoned.
- In theory, this is for a multiplayer race and coming in first place on your track. However, in practice, from Part 2 to Part 4, both included, it is actually ONLY if the racer is the first to finish globally, multiplayer or not (except on Part 4, where it is mandatory to be on a public server to get the winning award), and before anybody else finishes the other racetracks, that is, if someone on the same global race finished your circuit or any other before you reach the end of yours, you will not receive a winning award. For example, let's suppose three players start at the same time, two compete on the Land Race, but the other does on the Sky Race, and the latter completes their Sky circuit before any of the land racers can reach the Land's final ring, then the Sky racer will get the winner price, while the others will only get the minimum reward for finishing the track.
For the Land Race, it is necessary to use a land creature that has the Jump ability, as some rings are high above the ground; while for the Ocean Race, it is necessary to use an aquatic creature that has the Dart ability, as some rings are high above the water. Some alternatives, such as latching or grabbing someone performing the same track, are still possible, though not-recommended, ways to reach those rings. A Thunderstorm may also allow aquatics without dart to reach all the rings.

Trivia[]
- Upon the event's release, the personal point goals for rewards such as Paradox color palette, Darkstar plushie, and certain signature looks were being treated as a team goal. This means they were being multiplied by 250, which was completely unintentional. This issue was fixed within a few hours.
- The prices for other items were also adjusted in the same update as above.
- The prices or total points required for certain items were adjusted at various times throughout the event.
- The prices for other items were also adjusted in the same update as above.
- When Part 2 released, the personal point goals for the team's exclusive creatures (Ouratum and Irizah) in the Event Shop used to be 5,000 total Personal Points earned. However, due to popular requests, this was quickly changed to 2,500 total Personal Points.
- During Part 1, the Ouratum model was added to the game, however its species was unobtainable until Part 2.
- At the beginning of the event, the Light team was leading in points and was the first to unlock an item in the shop. A day before the event ended, the Dark team was leading in points and was the first to unlock the final item in the shop.
- About one minute before the event ended, the Light team had accumulated the most points, leading by a difference of 89,649 points. Specifically, the Light team had 241,048,133 total points, while the Dark team had 240,958,484 total points.
