  • The soulless ginger sent me... lol

    My only complaint is the superstar shard bags could have a lil bit better drop rate or more shards and a few more mlc s tier and s+ tier shards wouldn't hurt

    Champions chat told us this is definitely worth the time and effort someone has to win so shooting my shot…

    In the future they should also instruct you to play the contest first and then leave constructive feedback as well for a chance to win.

  • Why, the showdown event every three weeks of a MLC it is always the same except with different cards\posters.

    Serious question and complaint. Everything they do a showdown event why does the showdown coin bonus with the IOW superstars promoters not pay out correctly?

    For example once you get to elite league the reward for winning a SD match is 2500 coins. If I have IOW booker T at 50% more SD coins from battles and use a powerhouse to win and I have IOW Beth Phoenix at 20% more SD coins from battles and use a showboat to win then I should be getting an extra 1250 and 500 respectively so an extra 1750 coins per win at a 2500 coin reward. I'm not getting that. If I use IOW booker t I'm getting 750 and IOW Beth Phoenix pays correctly at 500. So I am getting almost 500 extra coins less than what I should be getting.

    This is a huge difference if you play 20 SD matches in elite, that is an extra 10,000 coins which for me is going to be the difference between maxing the soulless one showdown competition and not maxing.

    It does this every single SD event. The promoter bonuses don't payout correctly.

  • Awful event one of the worst showdowns in recent memory

    Bad week in general

    Requiring both zombie females from last year is ridiculous especially if you're not going to make one available for people to get really putting people back

    This showdown prizes are awful

    Where are all the zombie Bailey shards enough with so many Bret shards most people that normally get the chase already got him would like a chance to get Bailey but here we are week 4 and hardly any shards for bayley the requirement of both last year females zombies is ridiculous without at least one of them being available for people to either purchase or give it for free at three stars that requirement alone have screwed so many people over this past week

    You guys really need to make major adjustments for this showdown it was awful again needing a zombie female to defend if you don't have one of last years you're screwed awful decision

    Again if you was going to require zombie females especially the two from last year for any bonus points one of them should have been made available and I'm not talking at huge price like we seen in the past maybe 15 to $20 or free at three star

    Really dropped the ball this time should give some type of compensation for this decision maybe a thousand Bailey shards to all or one of last years zfemales for free

    I would understand if you require only one of them for bonuses but your required both really hurt a lot of players and the prize wall it's total poop really nothing to get if you don't get a bunch of the currency this week

  • first time I’ve ever been able to max the showdown thing which is neat. The event could use way more Bayley shards though.

    A lacklustre end to another underwhelming weekend. Zombie month is proving to be all hype and no substance.

  • zappadad
    zappadad Member ✭✭✭

    Par for the course as far as showdowns go. I can see how new and newer players may have had issues not having CSS as even I still don't have Z-Lashley & Z-HHH (I could but I'm waiting to use my tokens). Along with missing Z-Orton Z-Bianca Z-Dragon, I was still able to grind my way to the last free* chest. So as far as the event goes it was just fine. Would have definitely liked to have gotten a few more Z-Bayley shards for my time and efforts. It's looking like I may be cutting things real close when it comes to recruiting her via shards without paying for more chances so we'll see what the next week brings as far as her poster. Z-Brett is all but recruited as of now and Z-Chelsea is amazing as a free poster.

    So the only real complaint I have as always is energy. It's still pointless to have imo. Get rid of it and put in more time on updating the prize wall. Things are starting to get stale there.

  • Great contest again, I don't really like the new tours and how rare some of the contest people are, and I would prefer for there to be more shard bags in the tours

    Wasn't able to complete this contest. 2nd week in a row after being able to completethem for free for the past few months. I mean,its not that hard to complete, i just dont have ztaker. I have a pretty good roster too. Ugh. I don't expect to be able to complete them all but 2 in a row is not the best feeling.

    I thought the showdown energy was decent. I like getting them from tours.

    Tours was okay. The new format is different. Not fantastic but different.

    Faction contest was really really easy. Maybe even too easy.

    Having 100 prize wall tokens in the loot is a tragedy. Thought about buying some loot coins but can't justify it just to get a few tokens. Just not a fan of it in the slightest.

    I'm a big bayley mark so of course I've any weekend that she is featured! Wish there were a little more shards for her though, since I probably won't ever get her.

    Thanks!

    This event wasn't too bad. SD was actually pretty easy to hit gold on which was nice, even though I didn't have 2 of the required CSS. Solo contest was decent as well. The loot looked really good, however paying a decent amount to do a mega and getting nothing but 25 shards of Bayley is a right kick in the teeth - especially when I didn't have most of the cards in the featured. If it's featured it really needs to be 100+ shards as a minimum.

    Showdowns are boring... pretty much the same fight over and over.

    They need to be revamped.

    I enjoyed this showdown more than most recent showdown and it's because I was able to get all contest points in the showdown competition as well a few shard coins. In past showdowns there were too many rare css.

    Missed the ruby market this weekend mainly because it's zombie month and it's the only time we can get them. Had you skipped a normal mlc weekend I would t of minded.

    Also I like having shard bags in tours, makes them more exciting.

    This weekend SD contest was good but not what we expected from a zombie mlc perspective. It wasn’t too bad though newer players and freebies might had some issues with the CSS selection. Since these contests layout heavily relies on how many CSS you owned. One the other hand players like me who are mildly spenders and have all the tools can get it done in quick time. You have to maintain a good balance across all the player base. Spending should be benefits in terms of quick progress and more rewards but not discouraged the people who can’t afford to do so;
    • Solo contest was pretty decent. Could have gotten more shards of the weekend character but i think you guys have tried something different than the usual structure. If that’s the way you are looking at then i’d suggest you to make some adjustments for the time being because it really takes way all the possibilities to recruit a new card and prize wall medallions you could earn through the SD grind.
    • Faction contest on the other side was too easy to max out. I’m not complaining about but it should have been worked on different ways to earn points and getting the rewards as you progress. I don’t understand your pattern so far, sometimes you make things way more accessible and people kinda get bored because it takes no time for them to get it done and whereas some other contest you make it seem impossible to reach the free milestone chest. Stick to the original goal and accordingly make changes to keep a fun element but in a more efficient manner.
    • Showdown contest was surprisingly good compared to what we have in the past but again for newer players things can be different here. I was able to max out the whole event thanks to the CSS but that’s not the case for everyone. Putting the last year zombies as CSS specially both the females zombies who are still known as super rare cards was not sure how can a new player get it all done. I get the idea not everyone can max out which is totally understandable but atleast put some points for them to reach a certain level where they kinda feel that they grind their way up and that’s the whole point. It takes alot of time and efforts so please make sure you have something for everyone. Love the fact that you put the points for using Zbret and Zbayley for those who recurited them early in the contest to make a difference which is a great move and help alot of the people who can grind their way through the tournament.
    • Finding the right match is the hardest thing which might have experienced in pretty much every single showdown competition. Matchmaking is the most awful thing that i could think about and hoping to get fixed soon. I literally spends like 20M-50M just to find out the pefect opponent at my level. I’d highly suggest you guys to limit the individual players in a particular league where they have exact same notoriety players as others. Just like you set the standards for defensive and offensive teams in each league.
    • Tours were not the same atleast this time around. For soo long i have been saying that it’s a usual copy & paste thing. Not sure if it’s stays like this or just a random one time run but a quick thought that i had is lacking solo points not sure if it’s intentionally done or just the new layout for the tours which does feel lacklustre to me.
    • Prize wall seems bit overpriced and unbalanced strictly for superstar shard values compared to the other stuff again same case different contest. Seeing different plates have been added with a substantial amount was a clutch move. We have been asking this for months now. So, thumbs Up for that. Now For better overview, let’s look into the shard amount. The ministry taker was up for grabs 65 shards (Which should be bare minimum 100 but idk)at the price of 10.3K medallions whereas the 225 jacob shards was up for 9.8K with the limit of 2 times. Just because taker was a paid card and jacob was a chase which is still rare among many players and comparatively way better in current meta. I still don’t understand your logic behind this. How could a year old card values more than the card who just came out a month ago has all the boosts in the world that makes him arguably the best acrobat character in the entire game. It has value to none and you guys selling his shards at this point pretty much like a halloween candy. I’m not upset about the fact that you make him more accessible to the people but in this case it’s surprisingly, shocked me. Still don’t know if you guys truely pulled that off but i’d say maintain the balance across all the shard selection and other things that are featured in the prize wall.

    What I Liked:

    • CSS were much more reasonable. After 3 weeks of hitting bonus milestones, I was able to recruit Bret during the contest and use him to progress. This felt well balanced in terms of being challenging and rewarding. Showdown is usually very punishing with restrictions on CSS and energy, so this was the most I've enjoyed a showdown contest in months.
    • Requirements were not too restrictive, which is appreciated given the difficulty of midweek requirements.
    • The new SD tour format is good and switching the Chelsea tour back by 24 hours was also better than the last contest.
    • The prizewall had a good selection of shards and plates. For those recruiting Bayley early, this must have been very rewarding. Showdown does seem to reward spending compared to other contests.

    What I Disliked:

    • Taking away the ruby market and not adding alternative point methods was a disappointment. I understand this is not technically part of the contest in-game but many players try to accumulate rubies through their purchases to make some extra progress in contests.
    • For this contest and MLC in general, the amount of Bayley shards available is too low in my opinion. Hitting bonus milestones takes quite a lot of money/effort, so players should be able to earn far more shards in these milestones. Despite hitting bonus MS in most contests, I will likely be hundreds of shards away from a recruit at the end of the month.

    Suggestions:

    • Smaller and cheaper shard packs (keeping the same value per shard) would give players more options and opporunities. Needing just 80 shards to recruit Jacob Fatu, a smaller pack would have allowed me to recruit Jacob and chase some other items from the prizewall. It seemed like almost a waste of currency to purchase 225 shards.
    • For the 1,500 points per win CSS, consider having one premium character and one weaker free character. This would provide a challenge for those without the premium character, without totally paywalling their progress.
    • While Showdown coin promoters are technically not 'required', they are almost essential for many players, so it would be nice to have a way for to recruit these characters without a subscription. Also, alternative ways to earn IOW tokens and IOW affiliation straps would be nice to see. It would be great to see these items available on prizewalls during showdown contests.

    Why the f you paywalling contest points needed for the gold "free" chest? 1st time in a year i cant complete a god damn event

  • I enjoyed the event overall, my main criticism is having the weekend showdown following a midweek showdown can make it feel quite repetitive and boring.

  • Jrhino22

    Last year, we had way more opportunities to get superstars. With all the grinding necessary, make it a little more attainable to max it out. Most people don't have the time to do that much grinding

  • This first time i comment here

    I got HHH S+ it amazing loot I can't believe until now I got him 😍🔥

    Overall not a bad event. Made it pretty easy to max the solo part of SD. Wished there were more shards for Bayley, and requiring ZBecky who is pretty rare for the bonus css in the tour wasn’t the greatest idea. Overall like I said not a bad event at all, was able to max pretty easily with a little time.

  • Great event.. love the zombie month. I’m a newer player and don’t have a lot of the required cards.. just buckled down and did my best . Bayley would be a great addition to my zombie roster

  • Telven

    The css for both the tours and the SD weren’t bad. I had not technical issues. My only real complaint for this weekend were that there weren’t nearly enough Bayley shards and there was no ruby market.

  • I'd love to get more zombie characters especially zombie bayley cause i couldn't this past week showdown event cause i didn't have zombie bayley which was a requirement superstar but i am happy that i pulled HOF taker yesterday from the loot pull

  • The SD was decent. I had both Liv and Bailey from last year so I was able to do pretty decent. Only think I would like changed is the chance to get Bailey (or other stars depending on the contest), it would be nice to have some bags or chance to actually pull the star in the milestones. I understand the goal is to try and get enough tokens but to get enough tokens, you would have to spend a ton. The recharge on energy could be a tad lower as well. I know in the past it was too easy to max but now that the goalposts have moved back quite a bit, maybe every 20-30 minutes recharge one?
