Damian Preist Debut Showdown(+Giveaway ends 6/21)

MattSabre

Overall the event was fair. Probably 6.5 - 7 out of 10 for me.

Pros:

·      Showdown mechanics continue to work very well. No issues with opponents no found or unable to attack anyone.

·      Rewards in the solo contest were very good, and scaled well across the milestones. Good to see so much coin on offer over the last couple of weeks, this is a huge help for everyone.

·      The tours were good, not too difficult, and short enough to play through quickly. I like that there wasn’t a Damian Priest required tour – much better to only have those in the victory tours at the end of the month.

·      The faction contest was also quite good, manageable for most high level factions, and encouraged everyone to max both showdown days to get as many showdown coins as possible.

·      Required superstars were also fine for the solo, one or two rare ones but mostly manageable for the majority of the player base. It was a very good step that shards on offer in the Damian bags were for rare(ish) cards that were needed for the solo contest.

·      Hell in a cell tour was also good. Short enough to get through quickly and the rewards were fine.

Cons:

·      Having yet another M/M showdown was really disappointing. We have had 3 weekend showdown events in a row that were M/M. Damian Priest, APA JBL and Boogeyman. Midweek showdown was also M/M. Please bring back more female requirements into showdown. We hardly ever get to use our female roster.

·      The bonus points not working at the start of the event was very annoying. It’s frustrating that there is never anyone around from Scopely on weekends to fix things – especially considering all the events happen over weekends.

·      I don’t care for the new trend where it’s not possible to shard recruit a card. This has happened for a few top cards recently – Damian Priest, MEM Rock, Street Profits, Alexa Bliss. I think shard recruitment is better, just because it gives you something to work towards even if you don’t get the card on the debut weekend. Those cards are now only available through pulls, and the odds are pretty disgusting to actually get them.

·      Flash ruby store looks rather disappointing. I’d like to see a bit more variety in them. Throw in some decent cards and more interesting rewards. 400 rubies for 10 shards of Triple H Blueblood is not exciting at all.

Again with this type of event I found the issue was that in the contest tabs it didn’t work correctly in showing how many times the css was used. It was only by checking in the showdown I could see.

It would of also been preferable not too see another M/M showdown.

Would it not be feasible to run more then one showdown at a time? You previously had 3x showdown leagues each week? That would make it more interesting to go between the 2 or 3. More time consuming but worth the grind id imagine. That way your able to grind out the event to max it without any spending required.

Zero shards for Daimen, and the showdown was super hard….

The event wasn’t horrible. But unless you bought tokens, it was nearly impossible to pull him or his shards. Also there was not enough points given out for using certain superstars. So many different techs to use yet it seemed limited for many players

Alexdiver

The event was very buggy to start with issues relating to bonus characters.

final milestone was almost impossible to reach without spending

I missed HTM and priest but could hit 8.8M relatively easy so on that part fine.

HiaC tour was tricky as lashley and belair are new so didn’t have them higher than l60.

This contest was definitely not smooth. The bonus super star points were not working at the start of the event. Points from the portal were an issue all weekend and pushing the max milestone up to 11.5 million is a little much. I had all superstars and still needed a few pulls and TU to complete.

mom top of that why can’t SD coins just be worth 100 points every event? This time they are 70 last time they are 100 before that 50.

can we just have a universal point value so these events are more uniform?

Besides that please continue to increase coins and TP in the events I have noticed an uptick in these resources in your events and it’s appreciated due to the high cost of some of these 5 star superstars

Showdown event felt like mixed bag , as with other recent events seems to be if you are missing just 1 superstar you essentially need to spend to even max now , the rewards are good but not worth spending hard earned cash towards , hopefully come next month showdown will be maxable again without heavy spending

I did solo n faction both. It's quite nice event but sad part is that I didnot get the character only shards I got. So kindly if I m able to get the new character , please think about my comment too

rengaluviee

The event was good and one more thing you keep it up this time I've got a lot of showdown coins more then other showdown events , in every showdown event I've always end the game same league this one too but on this one I've got more showdown coins that was a very good make every showdown event like this thank you

fastfrank

Overall it wasn't that bad to be honest. Typical showdown tournament as per usual I definitely liked that it was any version of a superstar ( for the most part) instead of a specific version .

whosthis

To bad that almost every event, including this 1, has the requirement that real money has to be spend. Without spending you just have no chance to max it.

Event right after an update to the game. Yeah no issues will happen right?? Wrong. Portal didn’t give out rewards for people who hit milestones from purchases. No daily rewards on Sunday. Got the milestone for a Braun bag, but went to claim it and nothing in my inventory for it. Have sent a screen shot but probably won’t get anything like the socko legendary strap incident last year. Maxed both days on sd coins got to milestone 15/16 with a million left to go. Watched as many of my faction mates pulled priest from bags just like jbl and strowman. And it makes me wonder? Why spend all this money in game when someone who hardly spends gets the free character from a bag?

Considering it's a copy/paste of every other Showdown, the initial bonus point being incorrect is really inexcusable.

jefe220

Just like the last events. I would still.like to see a 2sb card offered if maxed. Also instead of giving a chance in those bags offer smaller amounts of shards. Example if you get to a milestone then give away 10 johnny shards, 10 drew shards, and 5 HTM, and 20 Damien shards. Let them increase as you get to higher milestone. That way its more fun to hit those milestone. More coins and tp are also needed as the cost of 5sb and 5ss is massive. Other than that. I enjoyed the event. Did what I could and got what I could.

Rock_123

Each and every event of sd looks copy and paste. You guys just concentrate on money. Make some better experience in sd. Make it little possible to get maxed . Bonus superstar are always rare once which we don't have. Hope our sound reaches you and you make changes accordingly. One more thing each and every time many like me always try to max event not get short by few points due to requirements. Look after us too we too are players playing this game. Spenders will any how get those superstar poster's but we would never get them. We cannot argue with you and if I write any thing more I think my post will be warned like last time or I'll be blocked.

I was totally dissatisfied with the talent of superstars, i was getting. It was like all 5star-silver superstar. That was too tough for me to beat them, I don't have any 5*silver guy. And collecting showdown coins was like pulling 2000 shards of a superstar at 1st pull itself. Lots of lags, glitches, and that horrible wifi sign with exclamation mark was damn irritating. Lost lots of hps.

Showdown"s solo contest is not good

Renegade8483

Overall, I enjoyed this event. It is nice to be able to hit one of the final milestones if you have almost all of the required bonus characters. Only feedback is I would like to see on the tours, more than just one required bonus character.

But in my opinion the events lately have been better. Thanks

Kelvin77_

Well showdown does me dirty when I hit the 5ss wall and I don't have any. Wouldn't have been so bad if my score wasn't at less than 500 and the people I'm going against were at 1500. Can't move in quicksand.

I typically really enjoy the Showdown contests and this one was no exception. Granted, last Showdown I did get Bradshaw and I didn’t get Priest this time, but it was still fun.

My only suggestion for the Showdown would be to allow us the opportunity to max the event by grinding. Old events used to have a point value for completing a match and the Samoan Showdown event had that for grinding purposes. That way, people will complete more than 10 matches on day 2 and it gives them a chance to earn otherwise unattainable milestones.

I always enjoy the bags where we can earn shards of superstars or even the contest superstar themselves. Maybe add the opportunity for loot coins as well like there has been for feud events. Those are some of my favorites.

My other suggestion would be to allow a third day of earning the Showdown coins for another potential point method and not ending the Showdown event at 4pm PST on Sunday but rather extending the timer to noon PST on Monday. That way we can get the most out of the entire event.

I hope that helps!

Hello this showdown event discussion. 1. The matches seemed way better alot easier to find legit matches. 2. The giveaway points from portal are great really helps the weaker player. 3. The point system this time was horrible very difficult to get far without stacked 5ss who are actually great. 4. It's getting very difficult with all the perks and belts etc the f2p player as myself definitely struggled this go round. Thanks for opportunity. IGN. Reveal

I'll start off saying I was actually lucky enough to get Damien from one of the bags. So my opinion is not "sour grapes"

First off, I do not like events where you cannot earn your way towards the character. There were no shards to earn. You either pulled him from a bag or loot, or you didn't. So in theory, you could max the event and have zero Damien shards. That would be incredibly frustrating. Secondly, there is definitely a Socko/Zhhh problem. I'll say this as someone who has a 5SS Socko. Unfortunately, I think this will just be corrected by flooding the market with anti-bleed belts. Most now are NWO it seems, and no one really good enough to take advantage of that. Same thing with the anti stun belt. ZAustin went from THE GOD, to now a lesser used player. How about add some coaches that reduce bleed damage. Anyway, it's a problem. The reason it's a problem is.....(number 3 problem) we need more health packs. No one wants to risk fighting a Socko, winning, only to see you need 70 HPs to get back to full strength. HPs should give out much more health at higher levels, or put a ton more of them out there. I didn't like the fact there wasn't a Damien tour as we often see, that gives out shards and TP.

The good, the Damien bags seemed to help a lot of people get Gargano. The related tours didn't have great rewards overall BUT it did give out some bags and give you a chance for a new Tech. There was a good variety on how to get points with bonus characters (not enough attached points IMO but ...)

Jnastybooty

The requirements were fine on this event.

The main drawbacks were:

• no shards
• no proactivity or communication when the bonuses were "down" for HOF Honky and Drew
• the tours need more chances to claim the new superstar

Axel16

increase the odds of maxing the event by adding more contest superstars. The rewards are good

Rudenox80

Same people getting the lucky bags to get featured guy. Almost impossible to Max first day as constant being attacked as my rosta don’t have any superstars who can make a difference. Prizes not great either

VoiiD

There is less incentive for being in a faction and working together as the faction rewards are mediocre at best. And if that’s how the layout is going to stay then the solo contest should be max able without needing all the bonus characters

sv316963

Super contest

Champ10011

The event was good

The only thing need to improve is rewards man from the bags getting only Gargano shards which was bit frustrating and faction rewards could be better as to earn points was very difficult add more coins

cruxer13

Straight up awful as normal the only good thing was the tour no chance to conplete event without getting the new guy or spendong bank. Why am I getting 700 gargano shards this weekend it was a damian priest contest yes not some old guy we all have? Im so over these terrible contests where there's zero chamce of conoletion or getting the new guy even with some moderate spending.
