    I have had to auto refresh my opponents close to 10 times and still can’t fight anyone!

    WORST SHOWDOWN EVER!!!

  • Schluehunter

    Sounds rather like a typical showdown to me, Atinman ;-)

    my problem is not so much to find opponents but to find anyone who can be beat. All of my opponents are like twice as strong as my best female. I have Carmella on 4g while my opponents are all like 5s. That usually happens in sd when i reach notoriety of 500+. But already at 200 from the start? Thats a bit frustrating.

    my only explanation is that the algorithm judges my roster overall, ie including all male wrestlers (i have 2 5b now). But even then the opponents are far too strong. It cant be right that im kind of not allowed to participate in the tournament.

    Can’t wait to see the typical “we are sorry we didn’t test our stuff and let the players be our QA department and are now ticked off at is” public relations response and little compensation response

    Now the opponents miraculously reached a lower level, but i face the same problem as Atinman. At least we dont lose coins any more. The solution to automatically change opponents if 2 were unavailable is definitely a major improvement.

    Question: Why dont i get points for Alexa like it says in the blog?

    ps: Now it seems to work. 23 more fights to win with Alexa. Unfortunately i only have her and becky and wont get too far in the contest. But lets try our best. Good luck to everyone.

    Not forcing us to spend to refresh when no fights are available is a major improvement I've been asking for so thank you for that.

    Auto-refresh actually did a lot to improve playability, I'm surprised. F/F showdowns aren't my favorite, but I've also said there needs to be more uses for women for a while now so I also can't complain there.

    Also, Mickie actually unlocks at a somewhat reasonable shard count, so getting shards now means that I might actually have the potential to unlock her in, like, 2023.

    One of the main issues I had is that the showdown contest counter either doesn't work or is counting something else - I'd much rather have a way to count my 25 Bliss and 15 Becky matches than the 1 of each the counter showed.

    Refresh Problem still not fixed. But attacks are high as always. No chance to get to 700 and stay there before the Point Refresh. After it, its easy but before no chance even with 5ss Stars.

    All the "not fixed problems" cost a lot of Milestones and Rewards everytime

    Speaking as someone that has multiple 5SS women, it was ok. But I can see where others had issues. Also, as I’ve said on every one of these, having every requirement should let you max the event should let you max the event for free, you’ve already paid enough.

    Pros= relatively fast and easy. Most requirements weren't that tough. Resources were ok. auto refresh being implemented.


    Cons-shard drop rate was low in loot and bags. The character design is rather poor as well causing you to need to use healthpacks even if you manage a t1 win is underhanded.

    Standard showdown event. Just more of the same for another half a character.

  • Wally7382

    Definitely did not enjoy it, just like the others ridiculous to only get half a character. By far the worst for me. Hoping change is coming for the good of that mode.

    Decent event but same as all feedback for these SD events. You have to spend to max and it still does not get you a character unless you win the lottery in bags. Getting 50-60% of a character gets old unless you can recycle an event. Do this one again midweek down the road so people can get the character. No reason for me to get excited about characters when I know I won’t get them any time soon.

    The biggest issue I had was how points didn't count for about a 7hr window that I noticed. Still haven't received my last milestone reward because of that tucker issue.


    What didn't sit well is the fact we were told compensation was coming before the end of the event. It never did.



    4/10 of it went OK and there was still a grinding aspect to It. Maybe something to build on is. DAILY SD COIN RETURN DURING SHOWDOWN.

    Get a accurate counter as well. How are you going to tell me that mon-wed I did atleast 1500 per day, then hit atleast 7500 on 2 of the days and I only get the number shown in the picture? That's false.

    And to be honest I'm sick of it

    Back to Back Showdowns is a horrible idea.

    The Mickie James Ballad lacked any reason to participate unless you were chasing Mickie.

    Rewards were moderate for the solo and faction events.

    Overall I thought the event fell short of expectations.

  • Bbillrich

    Pros- The characters needed to contribute for the faction event were a nice balance of somewhat common to moderately/very rare. This allowed everyone to Atleast contribute while allowing those with a bigger set of rosters in their faction to put pace and dominate in the event standings. I am fully in the minority but l I enjoyed the female/female sd. It was a change of pace and called for different characters then the endless stream of socko and lee. Also it rewarded the players that have worked on their female roster.

    cons- The biggest con to me was the choice of characters for the solo event. The selection of women in the game is not that large but somehow it seemed that outside of Alexa (who had visual errors on the event tab) the women needed for this event were a little more gated. Combined with the faction event it wasn’t that bad but looking at it stand alone it left something to be desired.

    Still have a bronze star for being in 3rd placed faction that I didn’t get to spend from faction rewards and still missing rewards also ingame name Duaneh

    Worst showdown of all times especially at day1. Didnt find opponents over a half an hour each match with about 50+ auto refreshes. All opponents blocked. Doesnt matter if hard opponents or not. Easy opponents are blocked all the time. This showdown was ridiculous

  • Jrh77

    There were way to many showdowns in a week. If you max a showdown two times you should get the last milestone. The fact that everything has gone to a pay event is not good.

  • Her tour shouldn't consist of shards of her. It's hard enough to attempt to pull, let alone be locked out of potential shards

  • MrCoolSwan

    This event left a lot to be desired. I had all the superstars except Mickie, got the max showdown coins and even out a good amount of talent into showboats and Pg stars and still couldn’t max the event. I would have even spent if the loot had anything of value. Mickie wasn’t a desirable chase and the remainder of the loot didn’t have great cards. In addition, earning points for SD coins ended early so you couldn’t use the last SD daily reset for points which would have got people closer and even more likely to spend a little to cross the finish line. It seemed like a lackluster and poorly planned event.
