I did not actually trigger the finale, despite a lot of trying. I should have been qualified for it, though, so maybe that was enough? I'm guessing Joy of Metroplex is either for making the kid happy or hitting the finale qualification, and Protector of Metroplex is either tied to one of the bosses, or for beating both of them. It says they're reigning titles, but xerf and xKiv also got them, and none of us seem to have lost them. I kind of assume they would be lost next year even if somehow no one else managed to attain them.
