    This event is a prime example of complaints that are repeatedly brought up. The blog was released with information including max milestone and the amount of points in the tours. The tours were released matching the blog and then pulled down when people realized it was too easy despite it being clear on the blog. In addition to the ridiculous issue with the tours and milestones the shard portion of the event seems to be unreasonable/unreachable. Normally if you hit the lotto and get the max shards from one of the bags in these contests you have a good chance to recruit if you hit the "normal" average on all other bags but this event looks like you end up without a chance unless you hit the 200 on multiple bags. It's bad enough we move from the old format of getting a guaranteed 2 star character by finishing it to no guarantee but making it require spending on top of that. The initial mega pack doesn't have shards either so people who jump the gun potentially miss out on a recruit by paying.

    Pros: The reduced wins needed with each superstar was a welcome benefit. There were a good amount of required superstars at the common level for points.


    Cons: The issue with the blog matching what was in-game, the events maxed immediately, shutting down the contest. It’s a story as old as time when it comes to this game. This puts your team in a predicament where there isn’t a “right” answer on resolution that will please all players involved. RNG bags are a hated concept universally as with the time and money put into these, there should be a clear attainable goal at the end. At the end of the showdown contest there doesn’t look to be a path to completion for any faction or any individual with dropping significant amounts into loot pulls. A few will do it, but the mass majority will be left unsatisfied. There’s no clear info on how the blitz will play into the contest or when it will start. Once again lack of transparency makes things difficult and annoying.

    I usually have something positive about each event but this one SO FAR is probably the worst one ever and that is saying a lot... The lack of resources awarded in order to max the event is laughable, and maxing the event doesnt even guarantee you the featured character, not even close! On top of a horrible structure, there wee issues form the get go that caused headaches and while something was done, it did nothing to change the event structure, and actually made it HARDER to max. I sincerely hope there is something more coming that does not require massive spending, but my expectations are lower than low for that.

    classic case of why people state they don’t ever want to post feedback because they feel that it goes in one ear and out the other. The tours were ok, until you got to a match that was nearly impossible requiring Greg Valentine against 4SG apa faarooq. The low end milestones weren’t terrible Including the 4SB black belt and the 5SG token.

    requiring Steamboat to get his shards is just stupid. No nice way to say it.

    asking people to spend $2000 to max a contest that doesn’t even guarantee a character should never be happening.

    Faction contest :

    Personally I can't give any good feedback.

    After the faction contest starts it would directly shut down because it was probably too easy to max out.

    When it starts again it was totally impossible to max.


    Solo contest :

    The only "good thing" was the amount of required common stars in the showdown contest.

    Solo contest is nearly impossible to max out too, even when you have all required stars you have to spend a lot of money without a guarantee for steamboat.

    Gauntlet Blitz :

    Normal mode will give you shards for the required common Star

    Hard mode need special tickets which are reachable in tours, but won't give you any shards for the css or points for the contest

    Hell mode needs again special tickets and the css. So if you're unable to recruit him, you'll be unable to do play the hell mode.

    So you need the css to get shards of him.


    The whole contest structure would be much better if you have a real chance to max it out and recruit the event character, all Blitz modes should give contest points and/or shards

    Pros: the amount of matches needed was a plus, we can’t stress that enough. Mean that’s really al I can on that.


    Cons: let’s start of with the glitch in the beginning as always. Some of the nodes were ridiculous to say the least and the milestone even laughable. The problem lies in where does our feedback really goes too, as it seems it’s still waiting to be delivered when the community that is here trying to make it better and then go 2 steps back. The need to listen to your player base is what’s needed to make this mobile app last.

    The Event is one of the worst ever.

    Milestones too high und too difficult and most of all too much "cashing". There are too much cashing events in general but this was really expensive, if you wanna max it. Prizes in all Milestones are a bad joke and another sign for all players what we are worth for Scop.

    Most Ressources are not that much needed and worth for players, especially for the high cashing what is needed.

    Focus should be more in playable things and not only in cash to win or cash to get anything

    One of the worst designed and executed events to date. Communication on fixes have been terrible. The road block matches in hellmode are just flat out ridiculous. Not a single positive for this event.

    This event should be printed out and put on your pinboards as a prime example of how to get everything wrong, horrible horrible event through and through.


    • The solo milestones were completely insane as we discussed prior to the event, requiring people to spend close to 2000$ to max the event on top of meeting all the requirements is just insane
    • the faction milestone again as discussed prior to the event was way unrealistic and the fact that the faction ranked in first is only at milestone 12 of 16 speaks volume as how ridiculous it was
    • there obviously was issues at the start that sure didn't please anyone
    • Again prior to the event we mentioned it would be impossible to get Dragon with the way the RNG bags are "paying out" if we can call it that way since they really arent, we said it was gonna be near impossible to get past 1100 or 1200 and guess what players that's maxed everything are right where we predicted, around the 1100 shards point
    • Both pulls for dragon turned out even worst then expected, not only have I personally not heard of a single person pulling Dragon, but even people pulling shards for him on the 2nd offer are very very rare
    • Pretty much every flaws we mentioned prior to the event we disregarded as false and you guys could adjust along the way, well turned out we were right on everything and the event was just as bad if not worst as we predicted.

    overall an utter failure on every aspect imaginable for an event, zero positives
