There's a monthly cash prize arena Legend club members can play in.

There's absolutely no way, outside of the lower leagues, you could make up the needed games if only one day was played.
If you play 3-min Blitzgames, any win gives you 9 points. If you have a win-rate of 50% (means you stay in the same ELO range), and we assume maximum time-usage in every game (6 minutes), it means that you win 9 points every 12 minutes, hence 45 points an hour, so if on one day you play 10 hours straight, you'd be able to get at least 450 points.
in the last 5 weeks in my leage (i'm in the crystal league), having 450 points, you would have won the leage in 3 of the 5 weeks. so, yes, you can probably pretty much win every league with just playing intensively on one single day.

Pride for a life wasted on a silly game.

I posted that when the contest was going on. Almost all the top leagues and divisions at that point required well over 2,000 points to promote, some a lot more. There may have been a few lucky divisions that required fewer, but it wasn't common. That level of trophies wasn't achievable in one day.
Now it's a lot easier, ten months later, depending on the division you get and players in that division,.

Even better, play the Blitz games in Arenas, you get more points.
If i dont play for 3 days and week 43 started 2 days ago how do i join now.
If you are not already in an active division in a week, play a game and you'll be placed in one.
