Beauty & Beast Contest

PRO - Really really liked the fact that everyone had their weekend back!!! An event that didn't take hours upon hours of playing was such a relief for once.

-Asuka being free/obtainable was a huge plus that i really wish we could see more often.

-The coin bags for shards was nice. Granted it took a resource that players are in desperate need of, it still provided a good chunk of shards for a new character

- I thought the tours were decent, a few matches were difficult, but that is to be expected.

CON - The number one issue with this event and most others, is the lack of resources in milestones. We are required to sped millions of coin daily, yet we arent getting remotely enough back in all the contests combined to make up for it. The solo event had 8 million coins, but for one, your had to spend a ton of money to get all that, and 2, 8 million coins is next to nothing in this game now. The more players are drained, the less interested they get. Provide at least triple the amount of coin and TP in events, and maybe people will be more apt to enjoying the game, which leads to more profit. Win win.

-The solo contest was not good at all... Not only were the milestone rewards very lackluster, but in order to max it you had to spend hundreds of dollars. There are just way too many spend events lately.

-For the 100th time... Please scrap the RNG bags, they are heavily dragging this game down.

Overall, it was one of the better events. If the solo is a spend event, at least the faction was doable without spending. It served as not a total waste, so that was a big plus. Having a weekend that did not require 10 hours on a mobile game to compete in an event was so beyond gratifying. Thank you for that. If Showdown was like this every other week, I for one would be thrilled. B+ event overall.

Pro-The communal aspect to the showdown bonus matches was appreciated by a lot of players. Higher end players could hit the big point matches while lower tier could contribute via the lower point methods. The rewards on the faction event were solid. Asuka was reachable by what has become the rough standard on these events (8-12 factions). For those unable to get to zasuka a 5sg token was a nice consolidation prize. After numerous weeks of event after event with a large amount of time required (feud and sd) this weekend was a refreshing break for many. There was still a decent amount of content between the tours and the sd portion but it wasn’t overwhelming. Payment options to speed things up even more were there but not a 100 percent necessity for most. As a replacement until the issues with showdown can be resolved this was excellent

Con-The biggest con I was hearing all weekend that directly tied to the event was that the paige matches were not any paige as the blog and in game icons would lead you to believe. Those without striker paige were left out of bonus points when all indications were they should have been able to access them. If that were the case the blog and icons should have reflected that. Sd itself is still broken. This event alleviated some of the issues but within the actual tournament some were hitting constantly while others were not attacked at all. The final complaint from the weekend occurred this morning. Many factions are asking for concrete criteria for what constitutes rotating players and attempting to take advantage of the system.

Pro:

Didnt take that much weekend time to hit the milestones and make Z-Asuka obtainable as a faction was great too.

Con: the amount of spending much of our ressources, we need for all our other projects, especially coins and TP.

Pro: Nice to have a free character again in the milestones. More SD coins given if wanted. Was nice not having to waste a whole weekend. Two thumbs up!
