Best way to farm event bonus items?

[Foxity]

I've been trying so hard to get the two bonus items, but with no luck. What do you think is the fastest way to try and unlock them?

Singleplayer while holding Ctrl+Shift, but it doesn't really guarantee you'll get anything either.

Haruo on Farm, probably

Welp, if singleplayer works, then yeah, play any boss on singleplayer co-op matches. Winning or losing doesn't matter. And just put a brick on your L-CTRL and L-Shift keys and click away. If you just want quick match ends, try doing a boss on Hyper difficulty. It's a win/win. Either you get your ass kicked badly and early, or you last long enough to rack up quite some XP to level.

Hm, so if the goal was to simply end a match via losing or winning... Perhaps Star Devourer would work?

Or if you want some XP on the side too, M10 works. Or Summer Beast. Maybe you need to play vs Summer Beast anyway for the items? Not sure. May as well pick Summer Beast on Hyper?
(Not like you can win in singleplayer co-op anymore anyway. The new Dealer class has poisoned the well. The AI can - and WILL - pick it to ruin your chances of victory.)

Holding any of the buttons speeds up the game. Holding both speeds it up considerably.
It only works in singleplayer, though, plus you get a small penalty for doing that.

That penalty only seems to apply to stuff like stars, event currencies (if there's a event currently ongoing that provides these currencies such as candy canes for old xmas, halloween candies, etc), and most likely XP for co-op roles, too. Possibly also regular XP for levelling up globally.

Doesn't appear to reduce the odds for rewards like random hope/dice/accessory drops during events after a match ends. And i guess you can also really quickly do ten games like this to unlock the 10-game hair (and possibly achievements, too). So this would be the fastest way, most likely.

Not sure if rewards like random hair drop-only colours and black/pink colours and (sun)glasses drop during singleplayer games after they are finished, though. Those might be online-only, maybe.

Thank you guys so much for the helpful tips, I really appreciate it :)

You do get the achievement for 10 games with a character, but not the hair color if you do it in singleplayer.

M-10 is the fastest boss for finishing games, as it has the least minions. You can generally surpass Chapter 30 in 4 minutes. Summer Beast is the slowest since she not only has minions but a lot of Warp Move panels so each chapter requires a lot of move rolls.

Yeah, I found M10 can kill you the quickest due to all his damage output and the fact his map is short. I also managed to win twice while grinding, which was pretty funny,
